Lin Yutong chuckled and poured wine for the two of them.
Huang Qin then picked up the wine glass and drank to cover up the embarrassment of being exposed by the old guy across from him.
Lin Yutong gave Old General Huang another drink, "Old General, if you want the capital, there are only two ways. One is to encircle but not annihilate. But this doesn't work. There is King Zhao in the capital who has hoarded it for the purpose of rebellion.
As long as I budget carefully for food, I can keep this capital city alive for half a year without starving to death. In other words, as long as I last for half a year, I will be worry-free. Because the fourth master will definitely return the aid in time, and by then, the things that were originally impossible will not be possible.
Ten thousand soldiers and horses have become the elite who survived the battlefield. Old General, do you, the five thousand soldiers and horses outside the city, really have a chance of winning when faced with our internal and external attacks? Old General, I have never doubted that you are brave. But in the middle
Is it really worth it for those who died in vain? Especially the old general’s men, who did not die on the frontier battlefield, but died at the hands of the people for whom they had bled and sacrificed. Is it worth it?”
"You have another way, which is to quickly capture my traitorous wife. In your opinion, this is the way that will cause the least harm to the people." Lin Yutong shook his head and smiled, "Old General, you are really
Can you easily capture me with your guarantee?"
Old General Huang looked at the wine glass in his hand, and then looked sharply at Lin Yutong, "Is there something wrong with the wine?"
"There is a problem with wine." Lin Yutong smiled slightly, "But the second cup is the antidote. Do you dare to drink it?"
Huang Qinduan sneered, stood up to drink, and then his expression changed slightly, "You are so bold, you really dare to give me the antidote." As he said that, he turned his palm and grabbed Lin Yutong's wrist.
Lin Yutong slipped and dodged easily, "Old General, I don't mean to offend you, I just want to tell you that even if it is a beheading operation, I have defeated you. If I really have evil intentions, the old general can still come and test me.
My skills?"
"Little baby, your escape steps are indeed exquisite." Huang Qin said, retracting his hand, "But if you think that without me, the five thousand troops outside the city will become a piece of loose sand, then you can give it a try."
Lin Yutong said nothing, only raised his sleeves, revealing the exquisite sleeve crossbow.
"Huh?" Huang Qin was immediately attracted by this weapon.
Lin Yutong waved to Aunt Su, and saw Aunt Su coming out with a repeating crossbow made in a workshop. Of course, this could not be compared with the one in Lin Yutong's hand, but compared with the ones currently used in the military, it was advanced.
Too much.
"Old General, please take a look." Lin Yutong handed the pill to Huang Qin, "If we really want to fight, my little girl won't be afraid of you with it."
Scutellaria baicalensis is an expert. When he saw this thing, his expression immediately changed, "Where can such a thing be taken out and easily shown to others? How about asking the enemy to learn from it?"
Lin Yutong smiled casually: "If you want to learn, just dismantle it and take a closer look. But I can guarantee that anyone who doesn't understand will never be able to install it again." Because the fourth master set up a small mechanism. This mechanism is
It is a one-time use. When you take it apart and put it back together, you will always feel that a component is missing.
Huang Qin couldn't help but look at Lin Yutong, "I really underestimate you, a little kid. Yes, if you have evil intentions towards me today, I will die in your hands several times. Of course I am careless in this.
reasons, but I have to say that you, a little kid, still have some abilities."
He was holding the gun, but he couldn't let it go, as if he had made a lot of determination before putting it down.
"You are all right. This trip to the capital is destined to be in vain." Scutellaria baicalensis didn't mind the problem with the drink just now, so she picked up the flask and poured another glass, "I will go back and forth from where I came in a while.
." As he said that, he looked at Fan Dongzhe and said, "Old brother, people with different paths don't work together."
Fan Dongzhe chuckled: "Do you know how I stayed?" He pointed at Lin Yutong and said, "People said that we died of illness, are we not going to die? You are on other people's territory now, don't be afraid of being criticized by others.
Did you say 'dead'?"
Huang Qin suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Yutong, "Little baby, am I 'dead' now?"
Lin Yutong said respectfully: "Old General, you are different. You guard the border and are like a needle that anchors the sea. No matter how courageous and knowledgeable I am, I will never let you disappear like this. Without you, the north should pay attention.
To whom? In the face of great matters of right and wrong, we must never be vague."
Huang Qin looked Lin Yutong up and down, "The little girl understands the overall situation better than those bullshit first-class officials."
Mr. Fan's beard stood up in anger.
Huang Qin did not look at him, but said to Lin Yutong: "Do you know why I brought people to the capital?"
Lin Yutong glanced at Mr. Fan, who lowered his eyes slightly. An idea flashed in her mind, "Are you here to get the salary promised to you by the court?"
Huang Qin laughed, "That's quite clever. Yes, the imperial court has issued a decree, asking me to come to the capital to collect the salary that I was owed." As he spoke, there was a bit of gritted teeth in his tone.
However, Fan Dongzhe burst out laughing, laughing and crying, "This is our Lord, this is our loyal court. If you, an old man, leave me, you will only be played around by others."
Old man, don't worry about the nonsense of the court..."
"Fan Laoji! Shut up." Huang Qin took a deep breath, "I am the Ming Dynasty..."
"Old General!" Lin Yutong looked at Huang Qin, "Are you loyal to your Majesty alone, or to all the people in the world? Have you really thought about it?"
Huang Qin pursed her lips again, "Little girl, you are very good at talking. But if you want to ask me to stay and fight for you, that is absolutely impossible. Even if you don't let me go, I will be disarmed and return to the field.
Will lead troops to fight."
Lin Yutong and Fan Dongzhe fell silent for a while.
Fan Dongzhe was about to speak, but was suppressed by Lin Yutong. She saluted Huangqin solemnly, "Old General, as I said before, you were always the magic needle in the sea at the border. I never dared to force you to stay in the capital for selfish reasons. Old General
After a short rest, I will immediately send people to prepare all the food and salary you need. From now on, the old general will no longer have to run back and forth for these things. Every season, I will send you the food and salary on time. From Liaodong
Safety means the safety of the capital." She reached out, picked up the gun that the old general put on the table, and handed it to him respectfully, "Old general, I will equip you with a hundred more guns like this. It's not just me being petty.
, but this thing has not yet been mass-produced, and this is the first batch. These one hundred are enough to equip the old general's guard battalion. Please accept it."
Scutellaria baicalensis stood up and said in surprise: "Little baby, what I said is very clear, I won't be used by you. My responsibility lies on the frontier."
"I know it's worth it for your determination to guard the border." Lin Yutong said with a smile: "The old general was ordered to collect food and salary, and the fourth master is also the prince of the imperial court. Naturally, he listened to the imperial court and counted the food and salary in full.
The amount is allocated to you. That’s all.”
After saying that, he turned around and went out to arrange the distribution of food and fodder.
Huang Qin turned to look at Fan Dongzhe, "Fan Laoji, she...she...what does she mean?"
Fan Dongzhe's eyes flashed with deep thought, but he didn't answer Scutellaria baicalensis and only ate it with chopsticks.
Scutellaria baicalensis curled her lips, picked up the chopsticks and pulled the meat into her mouth, "I haven't eaten meat in a few days, this smells good."
While eating, he looked towards Fan Dongzhe. Seeing that this old man really didn't say a word anymore, he felt really uneasy.
But after eating, the two of them walked to the city gate and watched the carriages carrying grain leaving the city. Huang Qin suddenly turned red.
I have never been so happy to receive food.
If he could really capture him, he would have no choice but to give him the food in return. But the little girl had two chances to kill him. One was the calm DU wine, and the other was the small ****
. could easily kill him. But he didn’t have anything to eat and drink. Not only did he allocate the life-saving food to himself, but he also really gave him the important things.
Equipped with one hundred aircraft.
"Old General, today, three months later, the same amount of food has been delivered in full on time." Lin Yutong solemnly promised again. Then he bowed deeply and said, "Take care!"
Huang Qin took a deep look at Lin Yutong, and when it got dark, he took the people to leave first. The grain transportation calculation could not be completed in a day or two.
After running for more than ten miles, he turned back to look at the capital. His entourage asked: "General, what's the matter?"
Huang Qin chuckled: "...what an amazing girl..."
Now everyone in the border guard camp knows whose bowl they are serving and whose food they are eating, so who will their hearts turn to?
Is it useful to be loyal to the court alone? It’s useless!
The hearts of the soldiers below will be won over by this load of food.
This is an outright conspiracy. He knows her plan, but can he refuse?
No! Because we cannot watch the soldiers below go to the battlefield hungry.
Even if it means death, we must make our brothers starve to death. Don't be like General Jiang, who was not killed by the enemy, but starved to death.
Fan Dongzhe, who was standing on the city wall watching General Huang leave, said softly: "Madam, your business is really a good deal."
"Sir, what's the deal?" Lin Yutong smiled brightly, "I really admire the old general."
Fan Dongzhe smiled and said that it was true. Without this broad-mindedness and insight, he would not have been able to do such a grand thing. He had provided the world with an army to guard the borders, but at the same time he had also gained a vast area in the Northeast.
"Did Madam think of this method herself?" Fan Dongzhe asked.
Lin Yutong quickly shook his head, "I told you when I left." She didn't want to stand out.
Fan Dongzhe smiled, "I don't know whether the fourth master is good at generals. But from this incident, I can see that the fourth master is a good general."
A general is the commander of soldiers, and represents the person who personally leads the troops to fight.
A general refers to a general who is in charge and controls the generals to fight.
Lin Yutong turned his head and asked, "Is there any difference?"
Fan Dongzhe said seriously: "The way to control a general is the way of a king, the way of an emperor."
