Zeng Xiaotong was so clever. He immediately understood what Lin Yi meant when he heard this.
Zeng Xiaotong also glanced around. He pointed to the flower pond and said in a low voice: "Uncle Fifteen was sweeping the floor when I came in. Could it be that Brother Lin suspected that Uncle Fifteen was eavesdropping..."
Lin Yi said thoughtfully: "Maybe I'm too nervous and suspicious."
Zeng Xiaotong said: "Then I will pay more attention to him in the future."
Lin Yi said: "Then you should pay more attention. Don't make this matter public. Otherwise, it will be self-defeating."
Zeng Xiaotong: "I understand."
At this time Ma Peiling came in with a bowl of noodles.
When Su Jin'er was here, she would get up early every day and personally cook breakfast for Lin Yi.
Now that Su Jin'er's life and death are unknown, Ma Peiling is responsible for making breakfast for Lin Yi.
There is also a poached egg lying on the surface.
Zeng Xiaotong stepped forward and said with a smile: "Sister Ling, chickens are almost extinct in this city now. You can't see white noodles anymore. You can still get noodles and eggs. Hey, the little boy hasn't eaten eggs for a long time. He doesn't even know about eggs.
What a taste."
As the little boy spoke, he had a boning knife in his hand. Then with a flash of light, the tip of the knife picked out a small piece of egg and stuffed it into his mouth and smacked it. It tasted like a rare treasure.
Ma Peiling quickly turned the bowl behind her, glared at him and said, "Little boys don't like eggs."
The little boy said: "The conscience of heaven and earth, little boys love eggs the most. If you don't believe me, ask Brother Lin."
Lin Yi smiled. He walked over, took the kid's knife, picked out the poached egg in the bowl and handed it to the kid.
"I'll give you all to eat."
The little boy picked up the egg and left happily.
Ma Peiling said to Lin Yi: "You were deceived by this clever guy. He must have given it to his young master."
Lin Yi said: "The little boy treats Brother Zeng like a brother and a father. No one can replace Brother Zeng in his heart. He has such filial piety, and I am happy for Brother Zeng."
Then the two of them entered the house.
Ma Peiling asked Lin Yi to eat it quickly while it was hot.
Lin Yi took a bite and praised Ma Peiling's delicious noodles.
Lin Yi said: "Pei Ling, now everyone has begun to eat wild vegetables and bran. How did you get the white flour and eggs?"
Ma Peiling said: "I have my own way. Eat quickly. Only when you eat well can you be energetic and energetic. Only then can you cope with this big mess."
Ma Peiling was originally ordered to deliver the blood letter to the Eighteenth Wall with Taishi Yulang.
After returning, Ma Peiling saw that Lin Yi was tired and haggard and had lost a lot of weight.
She felt distressed.
In the past two days, Ma Peiling was looking for Su Jin'er in the city. When she went to a wealthy family to inquire, Ma Peiling accidentally learned that this family still had some white flour and seven or eight eggs.
So Ma Peiling used her beloved bracelet to exchange noodles and eggs with that family.
The master saw that Ma Peiling's bracelet was a treasure, so he agreed to exchange it.
If it were normal, I don't know how much rice, noodles and eggs would have been exchanged for Ma Peiling's bracelet.
But in troubled times, food is priceless, and food is more precious than anything else.
So I only replaced two pounds of white flour and three eggs.
In exchange for noodles and eggs, Ma Peiling couldn't bear to eat even a little.
At this moment, Ma Peiling watched Lin Yi eating the noodles she made, and felt an inexplicable feeling of happiness in her heart.
She thought to herself, how great it would be if she could cook for Lin Yi every day.
But Lin Yi already had a wife and children. Lin Yi only regarded her as a girl. It was impossible for the two to be together. This made Ma Peiling, whose secret crush was Lin Yi, very entangled and sentimental.
Lin Yi saw Ma Peiling looking at him with a slightly crazy look. Ma Peiling knew his feelings well.
But he has Su Jin'er and Meimei, and he is destined to lose Ma Peiling's undying love.
Lin Yi took another bite of noodles and said, "Pei Ling, wait until Fengxiang's siege is completely resolved. What are your plans?"
Ma Peiling said quietly: "Didn't you promise us not to leave us behind? You will take us with you wherever you go. You are Mr. Lin, and we are your servants."
Lin Yi said: "I mean, it's time for you to marry someone and live a good life. I'm thinking that Yulang is outstanding in both character and appearance..."
Lin Yi originally wanted to try to bring Ma Peiling and Taishi Yulang together, but Ma Peiling interrupted him and said: "Prince Lin, please slow down. I have something else to do."
Ma Peiling turned around and walked outside the house.
After leaving the house, tears flowed from her eyes.
She quickly raised her hands to wipe her tears, fearing that others would see her.
In the room, Lin Yi sighed softly.
It was precisely because he knew that Ma Peiling liked him and refused to accept others that he felt even more guilty.
How could he bear to see such a good girl spend her whole life alone?
Lin Yi decided to bring Ma Peiling and Taishi Yulang together in the future.
After Lin Yi finished eating, he went to discuss matters with the leaders of each faction. Lin Yi did not tell the leaders of each faction that reinforcements had arrived. Lin Yi told them that the supply of food and grass in the city was gone. The heroes could not sit still and wait for death, and they were preparing to wait for an opportunity to rush out of the city in the next two days.
.Get everyone ready.
Now Lin Yi is the leader of the martial arts alliance, so the heads of the various factions have no objections. Lin Yi has the final say in all major matters.
Then Lin Yi climbed to the top of the city again.
It happened that Shangguan Minghong was also at the top of the city.
When Shangguan Minghong learned that the reinforcements had arrived, he was still very excited.
He kept looking to the southeast.
Sixty miles away in that direction were his favorite disciples and 70,000 tiger and wolf divisions.
So, that direction is hope.
Lin Yi walked to Shangguan Minghong and looked at the enemy camp.
At this moment, the enemy camp also started to cook food. Smoke from the cooking pots curled up from all over the camp.
Lin Yi asked the defenders and Jianghu people nearby to stay away because he wanted to discuss something important with Shangguan Minghong.
Lin Yi said: "Brother, there will be a big battle tomorrow. If we win this battle, what will be the result?"
Shangguan Minghong said: "If we win, Li Chao and Zang Ba will retreat with their remaining troops to the border. If the war in Lucheng is unfavorable, we will send our troops to Lucheng to attack Jurong. Jurong will also be defeated.
In this way, we can completely drive out the Western Region Army. The situation will return to the state before the war. The two armies are facing each other at the border. As for whether to continue the confrontation or send troops into the Western Region, that will be decided by the Holy One."
Lin Yi said: "In this case, Feng Liancheng will be dispensable by then."
Shangguan Minghong felt happy when he heard what Lin Yi said.
At the same time, a trace of murderous intent flashed across his eyes.
Shangguan Minghong said: "If you can kill Feng Liancheng, let me control the military power. Don't worry, my dear brother, I can completely control the situation. I will never let the Western Region Army invade again."
Lin Yi did not respond first, and then said: "Although reinforcements have arrived, the Tibetan hegemons have also borrowed tens of thousands of troops. The enemy's army is still strong and they still have an advantage. Brother, what do you think we have a chance of winning?"
"Eighty percent!" Shangguan Minghong said: "Although the enemy army plus borrowed troops and horses, there are still 150,000 to 60,000, and our city's troops and reinforcements are only 80,000. But it is surprisingly difficult, and the attack is unprepared. Jiang Fengxin also said in detail,
He ordered that no one should leave the camp without permission. This would prevent undercover agents in the camp from spreading news of the arrival of reinforcements. He also sent a group of people to pretend to be bandits and lay ambush on all roads within a thirty-mile radius in front of the camp. As long as the enemy's cavalry scouts
Just attack and don't let them get close to the direction of the hoarding. In this way, the enemy will be kept in the dark. They don't know that reinforcements have arrived, so they hoard sixty miles away. We can win by surprise!"
Lin Yi said: "Great! It's time for Feng Liancheng to die!"
