"Well, Princess Ling'er, you have almost had enough fun. Should you go back to Beijing? The Empress misses you so hard." Yang Yanzhao has been so humble in this life, but he has really lost his tricks on this little princess.

Zhao Linger showed no sign of paying attention to Yang Yanzhao's "please" and instead reached out to Yang Yanzhao: "Give it."

"What are you bringing?"

"Issue."

"What imperial edict?"

"I am very interested in what official he gave me in the imperial edict."

"The Privy Council is responsible for the imperial edict and is in charge of military affairs." When he heard that Zhao Ling'er had even guessed that Zhao Weiji had given her official position, Yang Yanzhao had to honestly take out the imperial edict that he had put on him and handed it to Zhao Ling'er.

After Zhao Ling'er received the imperial edict, she looked at it and threw it on the table, complaining with dissatisfaction: "It's only the sixth rank, and my father is a little too stingy."

"My little aunt, I am not young anymore, let alone you are still a woman."

Zhao Ling'er thought about it and felt right: "Forget it, I'm an official anyway, so I can be a military advisor for you right now."

It turns out that the reason why Zhao Weiji issued such a strange order was entirely because of the contributions made by Zhao Linger in the battle to conquer Datong.

This military achievements made Zhao Weiji finally have reason to let his daughter stay in the army with justification and give advice to Yang Yanzhao. After all, the second person in the Song Dynasty knew about firearms was Zhao Ling'er. With her in the army, she could avoid some unnecessary situations.

"But what should I do with the queen? If you don't go back, the queen will be crazy." Looking at Zhao Ling'er's smile, Yang Yanzhao couldn't help but remember the letter again.

"An, An, since the father has given you the will, then there will be no trouble with the mother. You should worry about how to fight the next battle."

Seeing that the raw rice had basically been cooked, Yang Yanzhao had no choice but to accept the reality. Zhao Ling'er officially entered the army's staff team in the name of Zhao Shanhuo, of course she was a man.

...

On the third day after the army set out from Datong, the army that was heading towards Nanjing, Liao Kingdom at full speed had to temporarily interrupt the march.

This time I stopped not because of the Liao army's sniping, but because God began to help the Song army.

"When will this rain fall?" The rain has been falling for three consecutive days, and Yang Zongbao has also been worried for three days.

Zhao Linger, who was deducing on the sand table, looked up at Yang Zongbao's bear-like appearance and shook her head: "Yang Zongbao, don't be sissy here. If you have time, go to see if gunpowder is OK. If gunpowder is tide, we won't have to fight this battle."

"I'm not a sissy." After hearing Zhao Ling'er's words, Yang Zongbaoteng became angry and thought to himself that my strategy was not as good as you and I accepted it. I couldn't stand it if I said I was a sissy.

"Look at your compassionate look, how can you be so sad? My Chunxiang will be with you when it rains." As he said that, Zhao Ling'er also acted like a young daughter: "If the rain keeps going, the clothes will not be hung."

"You..." Because Zhao Ling'er's expression made in this painting was similar to that of Yang Zongbao's expression when he looked at the heavy rain outside the tent just now, Yang Zongbao was a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Yang Yanzhao walked in from outside the tent at this time and slapped Yang Zongbao on the back of the head: "Why are you still standing here? You haven't gone to see if the gunpowder is getting wet. If the gunpowder is wet, we have to go home."

After the same line was repeated by his father again, Yang Zongbao could no longer refute it, so he had to take the straw hat and straw raincoat that his father took off and put it on his body, then left the tent and went to the other party's gunpowder place.

Seeing Yang Zongbao walk out of the tent with a grievance, Zhao Ling'er couldn't help laughing, but because Yang Yanzhao was watching there, she had to hold back her smile, and then asked Yang Yanzhao seriously: "Uncle, when do you think this rain will fall?"

Yang Yanzhao sighed and said, "It probably took a while. The time we chose was a bit wrong. It happened to be the rainy season in Yanyun. I guess the rain will fall intermittently in the next month. It's not easy for us to fight."

Yang Yanzhao, who lived in Northern Han in his early years, was still very familiar with the climate change in this area. Now he regretted the delay of the more than ten days in Datong Prefecture, which made the army in Yanyun start to rush to the rainy season. However, if the delay of the more than ten days is not delayed, the rear will be unstable again.

After a few choices, the army's temporary surname was only allowed to experience the baptism of heavy rain. Fortunately, the rainfall in Yanyun area is not too heavy, and the rainy season generally does not last too long. At worst, it's better to wait a few more days.

When the heavy rain in the next month was heard, Zhao Linger would come from time to time, which gave Zhao Linger a headache. The gunpowder in the army was most afraid of moisture.

Although Zhao Weiji has brought out many moisture-proof measures to ensure that gunpowder cannot be affected by moisture during storage and transportation, it is impossible to avoid during wars, which means that cannons cannot be used in rainy days. If the Liao army comes at this time, except for using rifles, they can only use traditional cold weapons to fight the enemy.

This will make the Song army lose a lot of advantages, which is very unfavorable.

However, although I don’t want the war to start at this time, sometimes the situation on the battlefield cannot be controlled by human will. Zhao Linger must figure out how to fight if the Liao army attacks on rainy days.

"Uncle, our army has brought traditional swords, guns, swords and halberds?"

"Take it, why ask this?" Because the number of ammunition is limited, in case, traditional cold weapons were still brought out before going to war. However, because guns and cannons have been working all the time, those weapons have not been taken out yet.

"You mean the Khitans might come to attack us on rainy days?" Yang Yanzhao naturally knew that cannons were simply unusable on rainy days, so he quickly realized why Zhao Linger asked this.

Zhao Linger nodded: "That's right, although I don't want to fight the Khitans on rainy days, I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of if I want it, so I'd better prevent it."

Yang Yanzhao thought about what Zhao Ling'er said, and felt that it was reasonable, so he asked the messenger to send orders and distribute the cold weapons to everyone.
