Kato Megumi wants to learn magic
Page 179
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"No, nothing. Since we have to fight a war, why don't you do it yourself? That way, we don't have to use any soldiers."
Hearing Hanyun say this, Kato Hui shook her head.
"Although I can do it, I can't do that. Otherwise, why would I raise the Dragon Court Army? They should protect what they want themselves. They can't ask me to protect them all the time. This is their homeland and they should protect it. They should bathe in blood and increase their sense of belonging."
"Besides, I am not omnipotent. My identity is somewhat special, and there are some things that I cannot do myself. Otherwise, I will be involved in more causes and consequences, which will not only be disadvantageous to myself, but also to this land."
Kato Megumi explained.

"Of course, I'm not completely indifferent. I will lead the troops and increase their confidence and morale in case of any emergencies."
After saying that, Kato Megumi said nothing else. After teasing the little goldfish for a while, she handed the little goldfish to Han Yun, sent the two of them away, and then returned to the space to prepare to burn the magic source crystal.
It would take some time to prepare the army, so she could use this time to enchant the magic source crystal and carve the healing magic she wanted, just in case.
After all, the medical science in this world is still relatively backward, at least ordinary people cannot access any advanced medical skills. This war is not big or small, but it is still a war, and there will be casualties. If faced with injuries that cannot be cured by ordinary medical skills, Kato Megumi will be able to use the magic source crystal that has long been engraved with magic to treat them.
This is where her confidence comes from.
……
……
After a few days, everything was ready and Longting County was shrouded in a tense atmosphere.
In the past few days, all the county residents knew that the Dragon Lady was going to send a large army to attack the surrounding counties such as Toushan and Heshan. It was said that the surrounding counties robbed the salt transported to Longting County, injuring their own people who were transporting the goods, and angered the Dragon Lady.
That's why the army set out and was ready to go. Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the entire county court became heavy.
In response to this, the citizens of the city were both worried and angry, while in contrast, the Longting Army was in high morale and excited.
On the stage, Kato Megumi stood in front of the army, with everything in front of her being dark.
On the left side is a military force of nearly a thousand people in black uniforms. After sufficient exercise and nutrition, these rows of troops are all in high spirits and full of vigor and vitality.
On the right side were more than 200 specially trained female soldiers from the Supervisory Department ready to set off. Rows of women dressed in blue uniforms stood tall, their eyes full of handsomeness and heroic spirit, completely different from the aura of the men next to them.
Kato Megumi looked around the audience and nodded lightly. Her black pupils were as deep and quiet as the night, and her aura was as majestic as the power of heaven that could not be looked at directly.
The Dragon Girl, who was rarely seen and only passed down by word of mouth, appeared in front of everyone. The Dragon Court soldiers below could not help but hold their breath, straighten their bodies, with a hint of curiosity and awe in their eyes.
The scene was quiet.
At this time, Kato Megumi spoke...
"I'm sure everyone knows what happened, so there's no need to say more at this point. I built Longting County because I saw the suffering of the people, and I wanted to do my part to create a peaceful and loving environment for everyone, so that they no longer have to suffer from hunger."
"However, this is far from enough. Outside Longting County, there are many more lives suffering. In order to survive, they eat grass roots and Guanyin soil, and some even sell their children and live on the streets."
Having said this, Kato Megumi paused.
The people in the audience also felt it deeply. After all, wasn’t the Dragon Queen talking about herself a few months ago?
They will not forget the hard times when they had to find food just because they have a good life now. That experience is no longer just a thing of the past, but has been engraved in everyone's bones and will never be forgotten for generations to come.
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
"So, Longting County alone is not enough. I need to create more Longting Counties so that all people will no longer suffer from these hardships."
"So I need you. Longting County is not only the peaceful township that I worked so hard to build, but also your home. Now, the peace of your home is coveted by others. It's time for you to protect your home."
"I will not offend others unless they offend me. The surrounding counties have evil intentions towards Longting County, which I founded, and have formed a siege to trap you here. Tell me, what should you do!"
"A tooth for a tooth! A tooth for a tooth! A tooth for a tooth!"
"The morale is good and your courage is commendable. I hope you can always maintain your original intention and fight for your homeland."
Kato Megumi turned her gaze to Qinglan and Zhang Huan in the audience and nodded slightly.
"Alright, get ready to go! Target Yamagata!"
Zhang Huan stood up and gave orders loudly.
At once, the sound of orderly footsteps was heard and the team set off.
As the team was ready to set off, Han Yun beside him also led a group of tall white horses.
"Sister, have a safe journey..."
Han Yun said.
"Mommy, mommy give me a hug!"
At the same time, the little goldfish flew over and ran directly into Kato Megumi's arms. Kato Megumi smiled and touched its head, while giving instructions to Hanyun.
"During my absence, you and Wang Tong should manage the county court well. If there are any special problems that cannot be solved, you can light a stick of incense in front of the shrine and call my name."
"Don't worry! Sister, I will definitely take good care of the house!"
Contains the guarantee.
Seeing this, Kato Megumi nodded, grabbed the reins with one hand, took a step forward, and climbed onto the horse's back in one go.
During the whole process, the sturdy white horse did not react at all. After all, all living things have spirits, and the white horse naturally has spirits as well. Animals rely more on instinct than humans.
As the master of this area recognized by the dragon vein, the white horse naturally knew what kind of creature was riding on its back, so it was very well-behaved.
“This is the horse~”
The little goldfish touched the white horse's mane with its fin out of curiosity.
"Okay, we have to leave. There will be plenty of time for you to touch me properly later."
Holding the little goldfish in her arms, Kato Megumi gently patted the white horse with her hand.
"Let's go!"
As if it understood what Kato Megumi was saying, the white horse neighed softly, then took obedient steps, quickly came to the front of the team, and led the way to meet Zhang Huan Qinglan and others.
After leaving the barracks, the entire team crossed the streets and headed out of the city. The streets and the city gates were filled with people kneeling.
They came to witness the demeanor of the Dragon Lady, but also to send blessings to the army, hoping that they would return victoriously.
Being under the watchful eyes of the public, Kato Megumi has long been accustomed to adapting well, while Zhang Huan and Qing Lan are still a little uncomfortable.
"I don't know why, but seeing so many people welcoming me, my heart suddenly seemed to be filled with confidence."
Zhang Huan couldn't help but sigh. You know, he only had more than a hundred subordinates in the past, and because of his work style, everyone was afraid of him, as if they were afraid of being eaten by him. How could there be so many people bowing and seeing him off at that time!
Now, the situation has changed, and Zhang Huan has come to this day. It has to be said that the world is unpredictable!
And Qinglan glanced at him.
"I hope you will have this confidence in the future. You should know that the Lord will not act rashly. The Lord is in charge of the army, and everything needs you and me to command. Don't fall into a trap because of blind confidence. This is an opportunity as well as a test!"
Qinglan said solemnly.
Doomsday Disaster: Chapter 375 Chapter Encountering Refugees on the Road to Heshan
Zhang Huan smiled and narrowed his eyes.
"Of course I know that. Don't worry! I will be careful. Besides, I am not so confident because of my own psychology. You know how our army is trained, and I know what the officers and soldiers of the county court were like in the past. If nothing else, judging from the quality of the officers and soldiers I saw when I was working in the court, those officers and soldiers of Heshan County are no match for the Longting Army."
"If we must resist, only the elite army directly under the imperial dynasty or the border troops can compete with us."
"Not to mention that we in the Longting Army still have so many magical weapons in our hands. How can we not have confidence in facing those officers and soldiers in such a situation?"
Zhang Huan said proudly.
When Qinglan heard this, he did not mock, but nodded in agreement.
"You're right... If you can't beat him even with this, you might as well find a piece of tofu and kill yourself."
"But don't be careless and let your soldiers die because of your complacency. Otherwise, regardless of the attitude of the adults, even the people will spit on you and drown you!"
"Hey, am I that kind of person? Don't underestimate me!"
Zhang Huan rolled his eyes.
The two of them were chatting here, while Kato Megumi was riding on the horse with Xiaojinyu to look at the surrounding scenery. To be honest, Kato Megumi hadn't taken a good look around yet!
Since Longting County was purified, the surrounding environment has returned to its former natural scenery. Although it cannot be said to be full of birdsong and flowers, it can also be called shady with green trees. Outside the city, the green sweet potato vines are full of vitality. From time to time, birds fly over the sunset sweet potato fields overhead, lick their feathers, and pick up insects under the ground with their sharp beaks.
The cement ground under the team's feet was like a clear white line, separating the potato fields and extending all the way to the distance. Countless meteorite craters had long been buried by the county residents, presenting a beautiful pastoral scene of spring.
This scene was completely different from the desolate one that Kato Megumi had seen before, and it was clear how much effort the county residents had put in for this.
However, as the team moved forward, the surrounding greenery gradually disappeared, replaced by an endless expanse of withered grass and gray yellow dust.
The cement road has long disappeared after leaving Longting County. Instead, there is a bumpy official road made of rammed earth. The air is polluted and the trees are withered. Going further away, you can see some rotting corpses of animals and unknown bones exposed in the wilderness and scattered everywhere.
Seeing the changes in the surrounding environment, Kato Megumi had a blank expression on her face, but the little goldfish in her arms was curious and asked Kato Megumi why the environment changed and why the birds disappeared.
Kato Megumi naturally didn't want the little goldfish to become naive, so she didn't hide the truth and patiently explained the situation outside Longting County to the little goldfish.
"It's not like Longting County where we have delicious drinks and meals. They don't have fields to plant and food to eat, so they feel very hungry..."
"Not only that, because the fields were polluted, the insects in the land died, and the birds also..."
Kato Megumi patiently explained the story to the little goldfish, and the little goldfish nodded thoughtfully, as if it understood a little, and was no longer so curious along the way.
As the team walked out of the area covered by Longting County, the entire team became quite depressed. It was not because they were afraid of the upcoming battle, but because they witnessed a familiar scene outside the county and were moved by it!
The group was moving forward in a mighty procession, and they encountered some scattered refugees who were still on the road. They were all ragged and looked tired. The direction they were walking was exactly the direction they came from, which was where Longting County was located.
Seeing such a large and powerful army passing by, the refugees all avoided them in fear. This scene touched everyone in the team.
However, no matter how touched he was, military orders were as heavy as mountains. The team was not allowed to act on its own, and the people in the team were not allowed to move at will. Later, Qinglan met the group of refugees, ordered the logistics personnel to distribute some food to them, and told them the direction of Longting County and the required journey to help them.
"I said, I didn't expect that someone like you is quite loving?"
Zhang Huan couldn't help but sigh as he watched Qinglan instruct his men to give some food to the refugees.
"Love?"
"Yeah! Apart from being a little nice to your soldiers, I've never seen you be so caring. Why are you thinking about helping those refugees now?"
Zhang Huan joked that he never expected Qinglan, who usually looked so cold, would actually do such a thing.
"What does this have to do with love?"
Qinglan looked at Zhang Huan in confusion.
"These people are the future citizens of Longting County. I just want them to get to the county court as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary losses."
"Come on, no wonder. I was wondering how you could be so loving. It turns out I was overthinking."
Zhang Huan twitched his lips and was speechless.
This guy was still a bit green when he first came here, and would smile when he saw people. How did he become like this now? Girls really change a lot when they grow up. Women are really hard to guess.
……
……
The team walked and stopped frequently. Although it was an official road, it was not easy to walk on because it had not been repaired for a long time and was full of potholes.
It was not until noon three days later that Zhang Huan raised his telescope and looked from afar, and a city wall more than ten meters high appeared in his sight.
Apparently, that was their target, and Yamagata.
I have to say that the adults’ treasure is really amazing. It can see clearly from such a distance.
"The whole army stops!"
With a sigh and an order, the Longting Army behind him stopped.
"Rest where you are!"
There is going to be a battle soon. After walking all morning, it is time for the army to take a break and replenish their strength.
Following the order from the front, the entire team sat up on the spot. At the same time, Qinglan also sent scouts from the army to investigate the defense forces of Heshan County ahead.
At the same time, in Heshan County, the officers and soldiers on the city wall were chatting listlessly.
"Hey! What did the county magistrate do? He closed the city gate at this time and sent us here to guard it!"
"Hey, I heard that they are guarding against Tongshan County or something. It is said that the rebels there have become powerful, and the county magistrate has joined forces with the surrounding counties to blockade them!"
The companion beside him replied.
