Transmigrated into a farmer's lucky charm, all the villains in the family panicked.

Yun Qiaoqiao said, "Don't worry, he's my future brother-in-law! He won't do anything to me."

"Otherwise, not only will Second Sister not want him anymore, but even I," Yun Qiaoqiao stretched out her fist, "will beat him to a pulp!"

Hearing Yun Qiaoqiao's words, Zhen Linqing rolled his eyes inwardly. He only liked Pianpian!

Xiao Yunqi, Huang Ziyang, and Zheng Chuntang all froze at the same time.

Of course they knew that Yun Qiaoqiao's second sister was Yun Pianpian, that beautiful woman with stunning looks. But how could her future husband be a commander of a thousand men on the northwestern border?

Although this man was indeed good-looking, standing out from the crowd in a military camp, he was still just a commander of a thousand men, a fifth-rank military officer, which was far from impressive in this border region filled with generals.

However, the three of them thought again and realized that no matter what rank or family background this person was, he was now their superior. A single word from him could make them run ten more laps around the training ground, so they couldn't afford to offend him for the time being.

The three exchanged a knowing glance.

Then, before Yun Qiaoqiao could react, the three of them simultaneously cupped their hands and shouted:

"Greetings, second brother-in-law!"

Yun Qiaoqiao's lips twitched.

She clearly said "future brother-in-law," so how come these three people are deaf?

She opened her mouth, as if to say, "Not yet."

But Zhen Linqing nodded with a smile: "Hello, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me directly. Whether it's training-related or life-related, don't be shy."

The three of them were immediately delighted.

They called Zhen Linqing "Second Brother-in-law" more and more naturally, as if they were long-lost relatives.

Zhen Linqing was overjoyed to be called that, his lips curling up in a smile. He enthusiastically inquired about their situation, and every now and then he would slip in his personal inquiry about Yun Pianpian's situation in the capital.

Yun Qiaoqiao stood to the side, crossed her arms, snorted coldly, turned around and went into the Thousand Household Office, slamming the door shut.

The four of them paused for a moment, then continued their conversation.

By the end of December, the 200,000-strong army that was going to conquer the west had arrived.

According to past practice, no one would choose to fight at this time of year.

In the dead of winter, when water freezes instantly, transporting supplies is extremely difficult, and soldiers fighting in the field suffer 20-30% casualties from frostbite alone. But this year is different. This year, the emperor is determined to subdue the Great Yan Kingdom and demonstrate the nation's power.

Food supplies were plentiful, and soldiers were well paid. Even their winter clothing was warm enough for every soldier, and their boots were extra thick.

Then, on the fifth day after the Western Expeditionary Army arrived at Yongmen Pass, the army of the Great Xuan Kingdom clashed with the people of the Great Yan Kingdom.

This battle caught the Great Yan Kingdom completely off guard.

The Great Yan Kingdom never expected that the Great Xuan Kingdom would choose to launch an attack in the dead of winter.

According to their judgment, the new emperor of the Great Xuan Kingdom had just ascended the throne, the court was not yet stable, and the army that was conquering the west had just arrived at the border after a long journey. They would need to rest for at least ten days or half a month, so they did not even send out more scouts.

As a result, the cavalry of the Great Xuan Kingdom reached the city walls during the coldest and darkest hour before dawn.

The soldiers on the city wall, wrapped in cotton-padded coats, were dozing behind the crenellations. When they were awakened by the shouts of battle, the siege ladders had already been placed on the top of the wall.

The first wave to charge was the vanguard, composed entirely of seasoned veterans, their swords gleaming coldly white in the morning light. The defenders on the city walls were caught completely off guard and collapsed entirely in less than an hour.

Within days, Donglin City fell.

The military flag of the Great Xuan Kingdom was planted on the top of Donglin City, fluttering in the fierce northwest wind.

The numbers in the battle report ignited the passion of the soldiers of the Great Xuan Kingdom.

They killed one general and two deputy generals of the Great Yan Kingdom, captured 20,000 soldiers, and seized 100,000 dan of grain and 5,000 warhorses.

These figures, laid out before you, would make any general leading troops into battle applaud.

The entire military camp was immersed in a kind of high-spirited excitement, and even the usually listless cook walked with a brisk pace.

On the other hand, the atmosphere in the Great Yan Kingdom was completely different.

One urgent military report after another was sent by galloping horse to the capital city, each one worse than the last, like a series of slaps that silenced the Great Yan court.

The Emperor of Great Yan smashed everything he could in his study.

He was panting heavily, his white beard trembling like withered grass in the wind, and his cloudy old eyes staring at the ministers kneeling on the ground.

"Didn't you say that with the new emperor of the Great Xuan Kingdom ascending the throne and the court instability, you wouldn't send troops?"

His voice was hoarse and shrill, each word squeezed out from between his teeth, "Didn't you say that the dead of winter is not suitable for fighting, and that they would at least wait until spring?"

The ministers knelt on the ground, their foreheads pressed against the cold gold bricks, and none of them dared to raise their heads.

The eldest prince, Ji Xingque, knelt at the front, his back soaked with cold sweat that had drenched his court robes.

He was now extremely frightened, because, to be honest, the reason why the Great Xuan Kingdom attacked their Great Yan Kingdom was because he had provoked and plotted against them first.

He initially planned to kill Ji Xinglan and make some other moves during the old emperor's birthday celebration, but ultimately failed.

Later, several groups of people were sent to infiltrate the border of Da Xuan to test the waters, and they even assured the Emperor that Da Xuan would absolutely not dare to launch a major attack at this critical juncture.

As it turned out, not only did they dare to do it, they also directly captured one of his cities.

In terms of overall strength, the Great Yan Kingdom was superior.

The Great Yan was established several decades earlier than the Great Xuan, with a larger territory, a larger population, and a cavalry that was renowned throughout the land.

The problem is that the Great Yan Kingdom is in the wrong; they were the ones who provoked first.

In addition, the Great Xuan Kingdom had arranged for people to spread the news in the Great Yan Kingdom in advance, so that the soldiers and people of the Great Yan Kingdom knew that their rulers were the ones who had problems.

Therefore, neither the civilians nor the soldiers wanted to fight this war.

But now, even if they don't want to fight anymore, the city has already been captured, and they can't just hand over more territory.

The Emperor of Great Yan took several deep breaths to calm himself down, and with trembling hands, he began to deploy his troops.

By drawing troops from the northern border, the eastern front, and the imperial guards protecting the capital, a force of 200,000 was quickly assembled and rushed to the front lines.

Next, the Great Xuan Kingdom and the Great Yan Kingdom fought several battles, large and small, with the fighting being fierce and brutal.

Every battle was a bloody grinder, but in terms of the overall win-loss ratio, the Great Xuan accounted for 70%, while the Great Yan only accounted for 30%.

Yun Qiaoqiao followed Zhen Linqing's team and participated in several battles.

When she first went to the battlefield and saw the scene of severed limbs flying everywhere, her hand holding the knife trembled slightly; by the second battle, she was able to calmly cut down one group of enemies and then move on to the next.

Her strength was astonishing, a fact that was amplified tenfold on the battlefield.

While other soldiers could knock away enemy weapons with a single slash, she could cut down several enemies along with their weapons with a single strike.

Because of his high level of martial arts skills and fast movements, he was able to reach the enemy's rear several times and even killed several young generals of the Great Yan Kingdom.

She rose from an ordinary soldier to a deputy commander of over a thousand men in just three months...
