Lin Ye and Xiao Zinai stood here, looking at the bright lights in the city. Xiao Zinai pointed to the colorful place in the distance.
"Brother, where are those places?"
Lin Ye took a look, thought about it, and replied: "It's a bad thing."
Zinai: "The bad part?"
She is curious.
"Why is it a bad place and how bad is it?"
Lin Ye said: "It's...a brothel."
At Zina's age, she knew what a brothel was, but she didn't know what it did.
She was more curious: "If it is a bad place, why is it everywhere in Caoshu City? Why do so many people go there? Why do they still go there even though they know it is a bad place?"
Lin Ye: "Write a book."
Zinai: "What to write?"
Lin Ye: "It's all about why."
Zinai: "Brother, have you been there?"
Lin Ye: "Been there."
Zinai: "Huh????"
His face was full of question marks.
Lin Ye: "I'm going there differently from others. I'm going there for business. The last time I came to Dongbo..."
Zinai: "You went there last time? I thought you came here secretly this time."
Lin Ye: "I'm going to inspect the military camp."
Zinai: "I'll go with you."
Lin Ye: "Actually, I want to avoid you."
Zinai: "I know."
Lin Ye: "I knew you would still follow."
Zinai: "But do you really have the heart to let me go back to my residence by myself? If you go to inspect the military camp, then only my little ax will accompany me."
Xiaohan glanced at her from the side.
Lin Ye also glanced at her, and then looked at the small axe, which was even shorter than Zinai.
That small ax may not be able to chop a mountain, but it won't be a big problem to chop an elephant.
Lin Ye: "You know, you can't go back to your childhood now."
Zinai: "..."
Lin Ye said: "When you were a child, I was afraid that you would be bullied and I had to protect you. Now you even bring me over and beat me up. Are you still saying you are afraid?"
Zina burst into laughter.
Lin Ye: "Forget it, come with me."
Zinai: "Are you afraid that I will go back alone at night?"
Lin Ye: "I'm afraid of walking alone at night."
In the past, she was a cute little girl, with a pair of beautiful big eyes, and she was also thin and small. Who didn't like her when she saw her, and who didn't feel protective after seeing her?
Of course, Zinai's appearance and figure are now more beautiful than before. She still has the same big beautiful eyes and thin figure.
But she was carrying an ax, that big ax...
She followed Lin Ye and walked from the city wall to the ramp. She handed the ax to Lin Ye: "The teacher's wife said that the little girl should pretend to be weak outside so that no one knows that I am so strong."
Lin Ye took the ax and immediately dropped it.
Zinai: "How should I pretend?"
Lin Ye: "Back to back."
Zinai: "Oh."
He carried Lin Ye on his back.
Lin Ye: "Bah, I mean you carry it on your back."
Zinai: "Yes, isn't this carrying your back?"
Lin Ye: "Put me down quickly!"
Zinai: "Brother, you are so troublesome."
She put Lin Ye down, and there were Dayu's border soldiers on the city wall. When they saw this scene, they didn't dare to laugh out loud.
The sounds that came out of the corners of the mouth were like farts, puffs, puffs, puffs.
Lin Ye: "Just do your thing honestly."
Zina: "Well..."
Come down the ramp and go back to the main camp in the city. Lin Ye is walking in front, Zinai is following behind, waving his hands, and Xiao Han is at the end.
It seems that the one with the least courage is actually the dog, even though its body is already big enough now.
When it normally stands on all fours, it has already passed Lin Ye's waist. If it stood up, it would appear to be much taller than Lin Ye.
A dog can grow to such a big size, besides eating well...it also always accompanies Zina to practice.
Every night when Zinai was breathing, Xiaohan lay beside Zinai.
But this does not prevent it from being timid. After all, it has never been out much, especially in such a strange place.
As Zina walked, she felt so bored, empty-handed.
The ax is with my brother.
So, she picked up Xiaohan and carried him away.
Xiaohan immediately felt much safer.
Lin Ye: "Why are you holding it?"
Zinai: "My wife said that the little girl looks cute when she goes out holding a cute little pet."
Lin Ye looked at the dog.
cute......
Yes, this little girl is holding a little pet and teasing it all the way. It does look cute.
Zinai hugged Xiaohan, just like hugging a big bear, so cute...
Lin Ye: "Can you put it down? It's really not good if others see it."
Zinai: "Don't let go, Xiaohan is cowardly."
Lin Ye: "..."
He changed his hand to carry the ax. The ax was indeed not that heavy.
"Brother, are you tired?"
"If you have a few, it won't be a problem."
"Then I'll do it."
Zina changed from holding Xiaohan with both hands to holding him with one hand.
Then he quickened his pace to catch up with Lin Ye, who said, "No, no, no, I'll just take it."
Zinai bent down, put his hands directly around Lin Ye's knees, lifted Lin Ye up, and Lin Ye naturally sat on Zinai's arm.
Girl, so cute.
With one hand he was dragging a dog bigger than a bear, and with the other he was holding a general in iron armor.
Xu Tuohai, the general of Mangjia Battalion, was on patrol at night with a group of people. When he saw a monster approaching, he was startled.
The light from the torch, which was not particularly bright, could not shine that far. I could vaguely see something approaching with an oddly small lower body and an oddly large upper body.
This upper body is so big that it's not even big on one side.
Xu Tuohai subconsciously held the knife. Fortunately, Zinai walked quickly.
It didn't take long from the moment I walked in front of you to the moment I passed by.
After Xu Tuohai recognized Lin Ye, Zinai passed by without even finishing his greeting.
"It's Commander Lin, this is Wandering... What's Wandering? This is..."
For the first time, Lin Ye's face turned red.
A school captain asked Xu Tuohai: "Did Commander Lin and his dog be kidnapped by a little girl?"
Xu Tuohai: "Nonsense, is that a little girl? That's a hero."
Lin Ye and the others returned to the camp, and Zinai put Lin Ye down.
Lin Ye sighed, put the ax aside, and then rubbed his sore wrist.
Even he felt tired carrying this thing, and if it had been anyone else's arm, his arm might have been broken.
At this time, the twelfth senior brother Yan Geng came over in a hurry: "General, Mr. Tianji and Monk Hua are catching up."
Lin Ye responded, thinking that they had already arrested the man named Wang Huanran.
Not long after, Mr. Tianji and Monk Hua came to Lin Ye and explained the matter. Lin Ye did not guess wrong.
"Let it go first."
Lin Ye said: "That's not what matters now."
Mr. Tianji asked: "Where is that person? What should I do?"
Lin Ye said: "Find a secret place in the camp and lock him up first. Early tomorrow morning, I will go north with the army. This man will stay in Caoshu City for you to take care of him."
Monk Hua said: "Let Mu Liuhuo stay here. The old man and I are familiar with the terrain of Dongbo. We will follow the leader."
Lin Ye thought for a while and nodded.
He asked everyone to rest and then went to see Yuan Qingze.
The lights were brightly lit in the big tent, and Yuan Qingze stood there, frowning as he looked at the hanging map.
Lin Ye asked after entering the door: "What are you thinking about?" Yuan Qingze did not look back, raised his finger and pointed at the map: "General Hong said that the news now is that more than 200,000 Loufan Huxiao troops have winterized in Eastern Xinjiang.
Advance towards Dongbo Capital."
On the map, he had marked many marching routes with charcoal, but these routes were all likely to be taken by the Loufan people.
"If the Loufan people ignore the cities along the way, bypass all the checkpoints, and go straight to the capital city of Dongbo."
Speaking of this, Yuan Qing looked at Lin Ye and said: "It only takes ten days at most to reach the outside of the capital."
At this time, they did not know that Yu Yucheng, the king of Dongbo, had witnessed a quarrel among the courtiers. The king of Dongbo also did not know that Dayu's army had arrived in Dongbo.
Lin Ye followed Yuan Qingze's instructions and saw a location on the map, which was specially marked to be particularly obvious.
"here."
Lin Ye pointed: "Ambush?"
These three words made Yuan Qingze's eyes light up.
Lin Ye only listened to what he said and quickly followed his train of thought.
As he was thinking about it, Lin Ye frowned: "Even if the Loufan people attack the capital Xiantang by separate routes, at the position marked by General Yuan, there will be at least several groups of soldiers and horses who must gather here, and then from here
go through."
Yuan Qing nodded: "Yes."
Lin Ye: "There are only a thousand rangers in Mangjia camp, and the rest are infantry."
Yuan Qingze nodded again: "Yes."
Lin Ye: "The only one who could arrive here to intercept Lou Fan's army in such a short period of time was Wu Lingwei."
Yuan Qingze nodded again: "Yes."
Lin Ye didn't say anything else, just stared at the map, his frown getting deeper and deeper.
Yuan Qingze pointed his finger at that location on the map: "Fanglu Terrace is a small stone city on the side of Donglin Canyon."
The deer herding platform is where the King of Dongbo went hunting more than a hundred years ago, and his men caught a deer in a net.
After carrying it to King Dongbo, he found that it was a pregnant doe.
So the king of Dongbo issued an order to release the deer.
Yuan Qingze said: "This small stone city is on the side of the canyon, about thirty feet away from the bottom of the valley. This thirty-foot long steep slope is difficult for the Loufan people to attack."
He said seriously: "I asked, the Donglin Gorge is not very wide, and even the widest place cannot deploy troops."
"So we just need to reach Donglin Canyon before the Loufan people, cut down trees, pile up rocks, and cut off the passage."
His fingers tapped heavily again.
"Right here, we only need a few thousand troops to prevent at least tens of thousands, or even 100,000 Loufan people from marching north."
His finger crossed another place on the map: "Several other groups of Lou Fan troops probably passed through here and were on the north side of the canyon as soon as they came out. If Xiantang City did not send troops to Donglin Canyon, even now
Send someone right away, it’s too late.”
Lin Ye said: "They couldn't make it in time from the north to the south. We should still have time to go from the south to the north, but..."
He looked at Yuan Qingze: "Once we really defend Fanglu Terrace, there will be at least tens of thousands of Loufan people to the south, and there will also be Loufan people to the north."
Yuan Qingze: "But we can hold back at least one-third of Lou Fan's army."
Lin Ye: "Death is certain."
Yuan Qingze: "Yes, he will definitely die, unless there is a miracle."
Lin Ye asked: "How many people are needed?"
Yuan Qingze: "At least three thousand people. To be more secure, five thousand people are needed."
Lin Ye was silent.
Yuan Qing said nothing more, just looked at Lin Ye quietly.
About half a moment later, Lin Ye looked at Yuan Qingze and said, "I will take 3,000 people, and you ask General Hong to allocate 500 people to me."
Yuan Qingze: "I'm telling you this because I have to go. After all, you..."
Lin Ye: "You are the commander-in-chief."
Yuan Qingze: "The imperial edict is false."
Lin Ye: "What I promised was not a lie."
He looked into Yuan Qingze's eyes: "How long do I hold on? Reinforcements will arrive."
Yuan Qingze replied: "It will take five days at the fastest."
The Python Armor Battalion is all infantry. Even if the soles of running shoes are worn out when rushing from Caoshu City, it will still be at least five days slower than the cavalry, because it is not only soldiers and horses, but also food and supplies.
Lin Ye turned around: "I'll leave tomorrow morning."
