"Weichen's division, I respectfully invite the Holy Master and all the generals to come to Weichen's camp to discuss matters..."

Zhao Ji said, "No need. Those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters! I'm here to plan with you dear friends, which can save a lot of time."

He also decreed that the generals should be left where they were, and that the thousands of soldiers in the middle of the division should be divided into four teams to retreat a hundred steps from the front, back, left, and right to protect them.

Zhao Ji made such a request. He was following the ancient adage "Things are done secretly" to prevent anyone from leaking secrets during the attack.

After all, he would later provide the generals with specific strategies and tactics for attacking Xingqing Mansion, the capital of Xia Kingdom.

Zhao Ji took advantage of the moment when the soldiers were about to retreat, and handed the blunderbuss and spear in his hand to the junior high school colonel Yang Xinzhong.

"I give this fire gun and spear to the Yang family's elder brother!"

"Ah!?" Yang Xinzhong was panicked, but said happily:

"Last General Yang Xinzhong, thank you Lord for your kindness..."

The sun shone on Yang Xinzhong's body. At this moment, he had become the focus of the entire military camp. He took over the gun and spear from Zhao Guan's family, and his figure looked even taller and burlier in the sunshine.

Zhang Jun, who was beside Yang Xinzhong, looked envious.

After Zhao Ji saw Zhang Jun's greedy look, he smiled slightly and asked the Imperial City Secretary behind him to fetch another blunderbuss and spear that were used by the officials.

Zhao Ji took the firegun and spear from the official, handed it to Zhang Jun personally, and said:

"This spear is also my royal spear. Zhang Boying is a hero and should wear this spear!"

Zhang Jun was overjoyed, with tears in his eyes, and said:

"Weak minister Zhang Jun, thank you Lord for your kindness..."

Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, Liu Guangshi and other generals present had all been given muskets, telescopes and other items by Zhao Guan's family before. Therefore, they were not jealous of the gifts that the rising stars Yang Xinzhong and Zhang Jun had received from Zhao Guan's family.

Zhao Ji called over Yue Fei, who looked aloof, pointed at him, and said loudly to the generals:

"Yue Pengju, this is my favorite disciple!"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The generals looked at each other. They all knew that Yue Fei, who was born as a martial arts champion, had captured the leader of the Iron Kites Army, Richard Brother, alive before, and they also agreed with Zhao Guanjia's words.

"Before I went on a personal expedition, I personally taught many martial arts test passers how to use firearms at the martial arts shooting range on the outskirts of the capital. Yue Pengju is the one with the best marksmanship among them!"

"Pengju, I invite you to teach the Yang family's Dalang and Zhang Boying how to use muskets, how about it?"

"The humble minister Yue Fei obeys the order."

"Weak minister Zhang Jun thanks the Lord for his kindness."

"The last general, Yang Xinzhong, thanks the Lord for his kindness."

Yue Fei was very fond of Yang Xinzhong, who was as strong as an ox and had superb archery skills.

However, he had a bad impression of Zhang Jun, who was good at catering to the Holy Will, but it was hard to disobey the Holy Order.

He walked up to Zhang Jun and Yang Xinzhong, picked up the unloaded firecracker spear, and demonstrated while talking, teaching them how to use the firecracker spear to load, aim, and shoot...

Zhang Jun and Yang Xinzhong were good at shooting with bows and crossbows, and they learned to shoot with muskets and spears very quickly.

Zhao Ji saw that Yue Fei was serious about teaching, and Zhang Jun and Yang Xin were also serious about learning. The three of them were enjoying themselves at this time.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

‘I hope that my move is intended to bring the three of them to know each other, get to know each other, and become familiar with each other earlier. It is best to avoid the historical tragedy of Zhang Jun falsely accusing Yue Fei and Yang Xinzhong imprisoning Yue Fei, right?!'

Zhao Ji looked around and saw that the thousands of soldiers present had been divided into four teams according to his holy will. They retreated a hundred steps away from the four directions to defend themselves.

He immediately summoned the generals among the planting masters, including Yao Gu, Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, Liu Yanqing, Guo Cheng, Wang Zhen and others to come forward.

Zhao Ji prepared six city defense maps of Xingqing Mansion that he had drawn by himself, five of which were given to the commander of the Fifth Route Army.

He unfolded the remaining city defense map of Xingqing Mansion, the capital of Xia Kingdom, with his own hands and laid it flat on the ground.

He also asked the Imperial City Secretary to serve as an official and lay out the map of Xixia Kingdom next to the city defense map of Xingqing Mansion.

Zhao Jisuoxing sat on the loess beside the two maps.

He called to the generals:

"My dear friends, come to me! Sit with me around these two pictures and listen to my strategic plan..."

The generals sat around Zhao Guan's house in order according to their official rank.

Zhao Ji pointed at the map and said loudly:

"According to the current situation where the enemy is weak and we are strong..."

"I believe that our army should concentrate its superior forces, take hundreds of large ships, sail down the Yellow River, carry out a 'blitzkrieg', and quickly besiege Xingqing Mansion, the capital of Xia Kingdom. Don't let Xia Emperor Li Qianshun escape!"
