Wuze was carried out and thrown directly onto the snow.
No one cares about Wuze's life or death.
Wu Mo stood in the tent, his handsome face like a god flickering in and out of light under the firelight, hiding a danger that made people's hearts tremble.
"How many days have the Liangzhou Army been without food?"
Umo asked.
The man kneeling below replied, "The Liangzhou Army has been without food for two days. I heard that because of this incident, civil strife has begun within the Liangzhou Army.
Pei Yuan left the camp once last night, I don’t know where he went, but he came back soon, we guess he went to look for food."
"Two days?"
Wu Mo smiled coldly, "I've had enough of playing games. I'm sending an order to attack the Liangzhou military camp at midnight tomorrow night and capture Pei Yuan alive."
He wanted to get back all the losses he suffered from Pei Yuan last time this time.
…
the other side.
Lin Jiao traveled all night, and when it was almost dawn, she went into the space to rest.
Pei Yuan should be busy and not in the space.
However, there are still hot meals placed in the bamboo house in the space. Pei Yuan must have just left the space not long ago.
Lin Jiao ate her meal, lay on the bed and rested for two hours, then left the space and continued on her way.
Now that Pei Yuan is collecting the food in the space, Lin Jiao doesn't have to worry about it at all. Her only task now is to hurry up and get to Liangzhou as soon as possible.
Coming out of the space, Lin Jiao rode her horse forward quickly.
Today's weather was pretty good. The snow had stopped since the morning. There were almost no pedestrians on the border road. Until dark, Lin Jiao didn't meet anyone.
After it got dark, Lin Jiao stopped and took the horse into the space.
Pei Yuan was still not there when she entered, but he left a note for her, "The situation will change tonight, but everything is under control, don't miss it."
It seems that the people in Northern Xinjiang can no longer hold back and want to take action.
Just tonight.
Lin Jiao simply ate the food that Pei Yuan put in the space, then went to take a bath. After the bath, she sat on the bed and read a book while waiting for Pei Yuan.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
At the border, in the camp of the Liangzhou Army, flames were blazing into the sky. Pei Yuan and his men surrounded all the Northern Xinjiang Army who rushed in in the sea of fire.
"We were fooled."
The soldiers of Northern Xinjiang reacted, but they were already surrounded by a sea of fire and could not escape.
This time Wumo sent most of his elite troops, numbering more than 100,000 people.
The fire burned from night to the evening of the third day.
Only 10,000 or 20,000 Northern Xinjiang troops were captured alive, and the rest all died in the fire.
The mountains behind the military camp were burned to ashes.
"Your Majesty, it is thanks to the princess that our plan went so smoothly this time. After this battle, the vitality of Northern Xinjiang was severely damaged, and we will not dare to do it again in a short time."
Xu Mian stood with Pei Yuan on the burned bare mountain, looking at the charred land below, and said with emotion.
If the princess hadn't brought the food secretly without letting anyone know, they wouldn't have deceived the King of Northern Xinjiang so easily.
If we start a head-on war with Northern Xinjiang, we don't know how many Liangzhou soldiers will be sacrificed.
"Go back."
Pei Yuan said.
He has been busy fighting these days. Occasionally, he entered the space twice and did not meet Lin Jiao. He only saw the note she left that said peace. I wonder if she has arrived in Liangzhou now?
…
Northern Xinjiang Military Camp.
Wu Mo's sword was pressed against the chest of the second princess.
"You are so kind, how dare you join forces to lie to me."
"I don't……"
The second princess turned pale with fright. She didn't know what was going on.
"My uncle said that all the food that Lin Jiao sent to Pei Yuan was burned by his people. There is no way that the Liangzhou Army still has food."
"You and your uncle are the same."
Wu Mo refused to listen to the second princess's explanation and stabbed her chest with a sword.
The second princess's eyes widened and she gradually lost her breath.
"Pfft!"
Pulling out the sword, warm blood sprayed onto Wu Mo's face. He licked a drop with the tip of his tongue. The rich smell of blood made him slowly raise the corners of his mouth.
He lost this battle, but he won't always lose.
"Pei Yuan, let's wait and see."
…
Liangzhou.
Lin Jiao drove for several days and finally arrived in Liangzhou on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month.
There seemed to be many more refugees at the city gate than when she left before.
Lin Jiao led the horse into the city. Before she reached the city gate, she saw the Lin family's carriage transporting vegetables into the city.
The person riding on the horse in front was Lin Pingping, and both sides of the carriage were guarded by the Lin family.
"Look, the Lin family's fleet is transporting vegetables into the city again."
"The Lin family has really made a lot of money this year. I heard that the vegetables in Liangzhou City are now sold at sky-high prices, and even the rich gentlemen are rushing to buy them.
The Lin family’s vegetables are in short supply.”
"I heard about it too. I heard that someone tried to steal the Lin family's vegetable growing method, but was caught and beaten half to death."
"It's a miracle that vegetables can be grown in the middle of winter. Only rich men can afford it. We poor people can't even take a look at it, so don't even think about it."
"Yeah, no matter how good this dish is, it has nothing to do with us poor people."
Lin Jiao led the horse towards the city. People around her were talking about the Lin family's vegetables.
It seems that the Lin family sells these vegetables well.
There were only a limited number of greenhouses in the first year, so she and the Lin family intended to sell them first to wealthy people in the city who could afford it.
After the scale is expanded next year, vegetable prices will be lowered.
After entering the city, Lin Jiao went directly back to her house.
"Princess, you are finally back."
When Jing Nuan saw Lin Jiao coming back, her eyes were red with excitement.
There had been no news from the princess for so many days, and they were worried to death.
"Why are you crying? Didn't I make a good return?"
Lin Jiao smiled and knocked Jing Nuan on the head, "I've heard about what happened on your food transportation journey. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. We should do whatever the master tells us."
Jingnuan knelt down quickly. Their lives belonged to their master. How could it be hard to work for his master?
"Get up, the ground is cold."
Lin Jiao helped Jingnuan up and asked her, "Did anything big happen in Liangzhou City while I was gone?"
"No, Liangzhou City has been relatively stable these days when the princess is away. However, the old lady has sent people here several times, asking if you and the prince are back. The old lady is very worried about you."
"There is also Xiao Shitou. Xiao Shitou comes here often these days. I heard that I have heard a lot of gossip."
"I see."
Lin Jiao nodded and asked Jingnuan to prepare a bucket of hot water.
"You ask the kitchen to make some food. After I take a bath and change my clothes, I go to see the old lady."
"Slave, go right away."
Jingnuan got the order and immediately went down to prepare.
Soon the servants boiled the bath water. Lin Jiao took a comfortable bath in the hot water and then changed into clean clothes.
When she finished cleaning up, Jingnuan came over with a hot meal.
