You put me in charge of the prison and turned all the female prisoners into female military goddesse

"Huaguo Mountain... Huaguo Mountain".

Fang Shengtian muttered to himself, then turned to the bearded man and asked, "Have you ever heard of this place?"

"No," the bearded man shook his head, then turned to the other soldiers and asked, "What about you?"

"No," the soldiers all waved their hands.

"Brother Lu," Fang Shengtian cupped his hands in greeting, "may I ask you, in which prefecture and county is Flower Fruit Mountain located?"

"Right now..."

Lu Jing couldn't think of a better answer for a moment, so he deliberately kept her in suspense, then turned south and gazed at the sky, trying to buy time.

"What's wrong with him, Fang?" The bearded man scratched his head in confusion and turned to ask Fang Shengtian.

"Shh-"

Fang Shengtian removed his finger from his lips and lowered his voice: "Don't make a sound to disturb him. Brother Lu must be missing his homeland."

A dozen seconds later, Lu Jing withdrew his vision and met Fang Shengtian's gaze.

"Huaguo Mountain is not in the Great Wilderness."

"Not in the Great Wilderness? Then where is it?" Fang Shengtian asked curiously.

"On a small island in Aolai Kingdom in the East China Sea."

"Where is Aolai Kingdom?" Fang Shengtian became even more curious and couldn't help but take a few steps forward.

Lu Jing dodged the question, saying, "You wouldn't know even if I told you; it's too far in the future."

"Oh..." Fang Shengtian nodded slowly, "The journey has been long and arduous; you must have endured a lot of hardship."

"That's right! They've suffered a lot."

Ji Tangtang came up from behind and interjected, "So hurry up and take us back to Dangning City, bring out hot soup and flatbread, oh right, and give us some roast chicken too."

"Roast chicken?!"

Fang Shengtian and his group frowned: "Aren't monks forbidden from eating meat?"

"Ah, ah, no, I mean..."

Ji Tangtang quickly put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, what I mean is, prepare more roast chickens. We need to provide relief to the hungry people in the surrounding area and help the poor and needy."

"Ah, I see!"

Fang Shengtian also put his hands together and said, "The nuns are so kind and benevolent; we admire them."

"We admire you." The soldiers behind him also bowed.

call--

Ji Tangtang wiped his forehead, then turned to Lu Jing and whispered, "Thanks to you for teaching me a few Buddhist terms, otherwise things would have been terrible."

Lu Jing remained silent, only reaching out to tap her head hard. Ji Tangtang winced in pain but dared not make a sound, only covering her head and staring at Lu Jing resentfully.

After the ceremony, Fang Shengtian extended his right hand and gestured for them to enter: "Brother Lu, there's no time to lose. Come with us into the city quickly. We'll cook wine and slaughter sheep to welcome our masters."

Ji Tangtang, standing nearby, chirped like a chick pecking at rice, "Yes, yes, let's go, let's go!"

After a bumpy ride, they were already hungry, and the other female prisoners couldn't wait to mount their horses.

"No rush."

Lu Jing clasped his hands together and said, "Commander Fang, you should return to Dangning first. There are my junior brothers who were once monks at a temple when we were young. We need to visit them first, and then we will go to Dangning on our own to meet up with you."

Standing beside him, Ji Tangtang asked in bewilderment, "No, Lord Lu, when did we... Ouch!"

Before she could finish speaking, Lu Jing quietly reached out and pinched her back, causing her excruciating pain.

Seeing this, Fang Shengtian quickly asked, "What's wrong, Master?"

"I……"

Lu Jing's hands were still twisted on his back, exerting force. Ji Tangtang smiled bitterly, "No, it's nothing. I just couldn't help but feel heartbroken when I thought of the starving corpses and the displaced people along the way! Amitabha."

"Amitabha."

Fang Shengtian clasped his hands together and said admiringly, "The nun is kind-hearted and admirable."

"Admirable," the strategists echoed.

After saying this, Fang Shengtian took out a fish tally from the fish pouch at his waist and handed it to Lu Jing: "Brother Lu, when you arrive, give my fish tally to the soldiers guarding the city, and they will report to me."

"Wang Lu's army is sweeping in. To prevent spies, everyone entering the city must be thoroughly checked. Your numbers are large, and without my fish tally, you might waste time guarding the city gate. Hence, this plan."

Lu Jing took the fish-shaped token: "It's alright, very good."

"Brother Lu, farewell for now. We'll meet again sometime. Goodbye."

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

After bowing in farewell, Fang Shengtian and his party mounted their horses and rode swiftly eastward, disappearing at the edge of the hillside a dozen seconds later.

"Lord Lu."

Ji Tangtang grabbed Lu Jing's arm and tilted his head, saying, "What do you mean? Why didn't you go back to Dangning with Fang Shengtian? And you even said you had a junior brother?"

"yes……"

Qin Liniang and the others were also puzzled and waited together for Lu Jing's reply.

Lu Jing said, "I'm just making things up to keep something in reserve. What if Fang Shengtian is just making empty promises to lure us into Dangning City and then plots something bad?"

"Oh, oh!" The women suddenly realized.

Lu Jing continued, "Let's first quietly arrive at Dangning City, find out about Fang Shengtian's character and the situation of the Dangning garrison. Once we have a clear understanding, it won't be too late to go find Fang Shengtian."

The women gave Lu Jing a thumbs up, praising him for being thoughtful and considerate in every way.

"Alright, let's get going."

"Yes."

The women mounted their horses and followed Lu Jing, galloping towards Dangning City.

Everyone worked tirelessly, doubling their pace.

As night fell, at midnight, Lu Jing and his group arrived around Dangning City.

"It's inconvenient to enter the city at night, so we'll set up camp nearby. Tomorrow at dawn, Wen Lanxiang, Ye Qingqing, and Liu Zhezhi, the three of you will come into the city with me."

"Yes."

With everything arranged and sentries both visible and hidden, everyone set up camp and slept in their clothes for the night.

The next morning, as dawn broke, everyone got up.

After eating the flatbread he had brought with him, Lu Jing, along with Wen Lanxiang, Liu Zhezhi, and Ye Qingqing, bribed the water delivery team that was going into the city and followed them into the city.

By noon, Lu Jing and the others had successfully left the city and reunited with the female prisoners who were hiding nearby.

"How is it, Lord Lu?"

Mu Jiangli and the others gathered around: "What about Fang Shengtian, and the situation in Dangning City?"

Lu Jing picked up the water pouch and pointed at Wen Lanxiang: "You tell me, I'll have some water."

"Yes."

Wen Lanxiang turned around and said to the female prisoners, "We inquired about the people in the city. Fang Shengtian is a good person. He loves his soldiers like his own children and is an upright man. Moreover, the various battalions of their garrison often sabotage each other and fight amongst themselves in order to gain the upper hand."

"That's why Fang Shengtian wants us to join, in order to strengthen their Flying Cavalry Battalion."

It turned out to be the case.

The female prisoners nodded, while Mu Jiangli muttered, "They're all part of the garrison, yet they're hindering each other. What a mess!"

"normal."

Lu Jing shrugged: "Wherever there are people, there is a world of intrigue; wherever there is intrigue, there is conflict."

Then, he changed the subject;

"But it doesn't matter, we'll take care of them all and take Dangning City."

"good!"

The female prisoners clenched their fists excitedly: "Then, sir, how did we get into the city?"

"Yes, let's enter the city."

Lu Jing added, "However, since you are all women and there are many of you, in order not to attract attention, you should all wear hoods. We should keep a low profile and not make a fuss, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

"Yes!" The female prisoners bowed in unison.

Meanwhile, in Dangning City, at the Flying Cavalry Camp's garrison.

Fang Shengtian sat down in the military tent and said to the bearded man standing opposite him, "When Lu Jing and the others arrive, we must make a grand and enthusiastic show, with gongs and drums, to let them feel our sincerity."
