245
Before the march, His Majesty had already issued a golden decree, ordering the Yulin Army to escort grain and military supplies to Lingxi City within five days. Seeing that he would meet up with Wen Xingren in the remaining day of the trip, Lin Sishen decided to set up camp with the entire army.
Take a rest overnight.
Lieutenant Li had a dark face, and he did not agree with Lin Sishen's proposal. In his opinion, Lin Sishen was too cautious, and his caution was a bit restrictive.
As the sky gradually darkened, they were still arguing. The two of them stood on a hillside, surrounded by no one except Lin Sishen's personal guards.
Lieutenant Li crossed his arms with his hands, and his thick black eyebrows were tightly knitted together. He said in a deep voice with some impatience: "It's not that I don't respect you, young general, but there will definitely be no Lao troops in the jungle in front of us.
.We must arrive at Lingxi City before dark tomorrow. If we delay our trip, His Majesty may blame us."
Lin Sishen was also a little tired. She raised her hand and rubbed her sore eyebrows, and continued to persuade her tirelessly: "Colonel Li, after four consecutive days of driving, the soldiers are exhausted. Once we step into the depths of the jungle, as long as we
If someone sets a fire, let alone food and grass, the soldiers may not be able to escape."
In fact, Lin Sishen thought carefully. Before Anqing City was broken, it was impossible for the Liao army to approach Lingxi City, so they could not use the jungle they had to pass through to Lingxi City to set fire to stop the Jin army.
But it's different now. Once Anqing City is broken, there will definitely be Lao spies near Lingxi City. They only need to know in advance when the food and grass will be transported to Lingxi City, and then send people to guard the jungle and set a fire.
With the help of the east wind, the reinforcements of the Yulin army and the food and fodder were burned down.
Once they succeed, regardless of food and grass for the time being, the Yulin army may lose most of its troops before they are victorious.
After all, Lieutenant Li still felt that Lin Sishen was just a fledgling boy, so he just felt that he was afraid before he even reached the battlefield.
After the two argued for a long time, Lieutenant Li was already thirsty. He shook his head helplessly and then picked a piece of grass from the ground and placed it in front of Lin Sishen. He pointed at the motionless weed and said: "There is no wind today, even if
They set fire, and such a large jungle can't burn, let alone don't forget, there are wet trees and rivers in this jungle."
Lin Sishen lowered his eyes and looked at the weeds between Captain Li's fingers, and was speechless for a long time.
Seeing her like this, Lieutenant Li couldn't help but sigh: "Young general, I'm sorry for the rudeness of your humble position, but you have some soldiers."
Lin Sishen didn't want to persuade her anymore. She just shook her head gently and said softly: "Wait a moment. After an hour, I will give you a reason that cannot be refused."
After saying that, she turned around and left. Upon seeing this, Captain Li could only scratch his head in frustration and cursed inwardly.
After all, he is a young man who doesn't like the fireworks of the world. After reading a few military books, he thought he was clever and experienced. He originally thought that Lin Sishen could endure hardships and was willing to listen to others' advice, but he didn't expect that he still went his own way and thought he was right.
The soldiers who were resting under the hillside obviously saw the two people who had been arguing just now, so they gathered together and started chatting secretly.
"What are the young general and the captain arguing about?"
A sharp-eared man immediately replied: "It seems that the young general said something about arson and not marching tonight, but Colonel Li refused to agree."
"Arson? We've been to Lingxi City a few times, right? We've never seen the Liao army setting fire."
"Hey, it's okay to take a rest after being tired for so long. It doesn't matter what the people above them are arguing about, we just obey the military orders."
"You can't say that. We are now under the hands of a young general. If he is really as useless as the rumors outside, we will be the ones who suffer and die."
"The young general has never experienced hardship. This is his first time on the battlefield. Before he even sees the Lao army, everything is covered with grass and trees. If he really encounters the Lao army, he will be so scared that he wets his pants."
"Don't talk nonsense. The young general is the son of our General Lin. No matter how incompetent he is, he will never be incompetent. If you dare to insult the young general again, believe it or not, I will tear your mouth to pieces."
"I'm telling you, Lao Yu, the young general is standing far away and can't hear your flattery. If you don't speak louder for the young general to hear, maybe the young general will give you a promotion as soon as he is happy."
"That makes sense, hahahahahahaha."
"Stop talking nonsense, Lao Yu is so good at flattering, he might be promoted one day, and then you will be able to bear it."
........
Lin Sishen was standing not far away, chatting in a low voice with Mo Zhu, who was dressed as a personal guard. After a few words, she suddenly raised her eyes and looked at the group of chatting soldiers, then pointed and whispered.
He rang the ink bamboo several times.
Then he put his hands behind his hands and faced the dark jungle in front of him, slowly closing his eyes, with a cold expression on his fair face.
She had long expected that Lieutenant Li and the soldiers of the Yulin Army would be prejudiced against her, so she did not take it to heart at all about Captain Li's distrust and the soldiers' belittling and joking.
They all called themselves "little general" just for their father's sake, but in fact, they all thought she was an idiot who didn't understand anything.
Lin Sishen folded his hands behind his back and tapped the back of his hands lightly with his fingertips, as if he was thinking about something with his eyes closed.
At the other end, Mo Zhu slowly walked up to the group of soldiers who were still laughing and teasing Lao Yu.
As soon as they saw Mo Zhu coming over, everyone hurriedly fell silent and looked at each other for a few times as if they were a little guilty. Now they became afraid, fearing that Lin Sishen heard what they just said and deliberately gave them small shoes.
But Mo Zhubi didn't look at the others. His eyes fell coldly on the old Yu who had just spoken for Lin Sishen. He raised his hand and said with an expressionless face: "You, follow me."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards Lin Sishen.
Lao Yu swallowed his saliva. He glanced at the people beside him in confusion, then stood up quickly and picked up the spear on the ground. He straightened his dirty collar and patted the stains on his body.
Grass clippings, took a deep breath and followed Mo Zhu's pace.
After Lao Yu left, everyone looked at each other and did not dare to say any more nonsense. They were afraid that what they had just ridiculed would come true. However, they thought in their hearts that the young general was not only smart but also a flatterer. He heard the old man say something from afar.
Yu said something for her and summoned Lao Yu in person.
Following Mo Zhu, Lao Yu quickly walked up behind Lin Sishen. He straightened his back and looked at Lin Sishen with stern eyes. The reverence in his eyes was self-evident: "Little general."
He is a veteran who has fought with General Lin and the eldest son. He has followed General Lin in the east and west, and has personally experienced the old general and the eldest son's military skills. In his eyes, General Lin is a god, and General Lin's
Naturally the same goes for the young master.
No matter what others said about the young general, he was a useless coward, but he didn't believe it. He felt that these were all illusions, just because the young general had no chance to show off his talents.
After he stood still, the thin young man wearing silver-white armor suddenly turned around.
With a high nose bridge, slightly pale thin lips, and picturesque eyebrows, her face is more delicate and beautiful than that of a woman, and her dark and clear eyes are looking at him intently, shining with a warm luster.
.
Just like two bright stars inlaid on the perfect facial features, hidden under the light is a deep undercurrent, which seems to be completely involved in people's eyes with just one glance.
This is the first time that Old Yu has seen the young general's face clearly at such a close distance. He is illiterate and doesn't know how to praise a person's beauty in life. He only thinks that the young general is very good-looking and the best person he has ever seen.
watch.
Lin Sishen looked at the stunned veteran in front of him. He didn't feel offended at all. He just lowered his eyes and asked with a smile: "What's your name?"
Lao Yu couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and stood up straight respectfully: "Reporting to the young general, my name is Yu Rongzu."
Lin Sishen raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this and sighed softly: "What a good name."
When Lao Yu heard Lin Sishen praise his name, he immediately blushed. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "My ancestors are all illiterate, so I don't know how to choose a name. I got this name from a fortune teller.
I can bring glory to my ancestors and be clothed in glory. If the young general doesn't dislike it, just call me Laoyu. That's what all the brothers in the army call me."
Lin Sishen smiled and nodded, and then asked softly: "Lao Yu, I want to ask you to do something for me."
Old Yu hurriedly held up his hands and said: "You have given the order, little general. If you go up to the mountain of swords and go down into the sea of fire, as long as you say a word, little general, I will die without mercy."
Lin Sishen knew how excited Old Yu was at this moment. She lowered her eyes, smiled and shook her head helplessly, and then said seriously: "Old Yu, I want you to pick 500 fast people for me to unload the grain and grass from the carriage.
, load it with soil and stones, and the weight should be about the same as the grain and grass. After the wind blows, follow the previous road to Lingxi City. The bigger the formations on the road, the better."
Old Yu was a little confused. He raised his head and looked around with a confused expression, and then said: "Little general, there is no wind today."
Lin Sishen's eyes shone with a scorching light. She chuckled and continued: "It'll be there in a moment. After marching to the depths of the jungle, as soon as you see birds and beasts flying and getting mad, just run back with the people and don't look back.
Until I run back."
Lao Yu vaguely understood what Lin Sishen meant. He nodded solemnly and said, "Oh, I understand."
After sending a personal guard to accompany Lao Yu to pick someone, Mo Zhu, who was waiting on the side, stepped forward, looked at Lin Sishen with some doubts, opened his lips and asked softly: "Master, since you are afraid that there will be a storm today."
If you set a fire, then why don’t you wait until the wind blows before leaving tomorrow?”
Lin Sishen shook his head and sighed: "This wind will blow for more than just one day, and the people guarding it will not leave tomorrow. If you want to set a fire, just let them set it. When it starts burning, they will leave."
Mo Zhu still didn't understand. She sighed and said, "But the fire won't be extinguished in a day or two."
Lin Sishen narrowed his eyes and smiled, looking in the direction of Lingxi City and said leisurely: "If it cannot be extinguished, someone will come to extinguish it for us."
While the two were talking, a gust of breeze blew towards them. Mo Zhu shook his head and sighed: "If they are really waiting inside to set a fire, then this wind will come in time."
Lin Sishen raised his lips and smiled coldly, then waved his sleeves and said, "It's not that the wind came in time, but that we came by chance."
As soon as he finished speaking, the wind became stronger and blew rapidly towards the place where the Yulin Army was stationed.
At the same time, far away in the capital, in the Liuguang Pavilion of the General's Mansion, Shen Qinghan, who was sitting at his desk, suddenly looked up from his book and looked out the window. A trace of deep emotion suddenly appeared on his cold face. Feeling melancholy, she slowly closed her eyes and murmured like a sigh: "The wind is blowing."
