Chapter 232 The 4th Rescue
Chapter 232 The 4th Rescue
Bai Jing added: "This isn't a huge sum of money, it's literally my heart's blood."
"Well, that's a good description. A lot of blood was indeed lost."
"They are eager to rescue Nalan, most likely because of excessive pressure from the Tiezhen royal family."
"After Nalan was captured, the Tartars first offered a large sum of money and then mobilized a large army. Haha, it seems they are really desperate."
"Could she be Emperor Tiezhen's lover?"
"What are you thinking? Why doesn't the emperor just marry the woman he likes?"
"That's possible. As the saying goes, a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a secret lover."
"Oh, what's going on in your mind all day?"
The two were originally talking about serious matters, but things got more and more off track.
Until Li Hu came back, coughed twice and entered the house.
"General, there's nothing on the bodies except clothes and weapons."
Lin Feng had anticipated the result and was not surprised.
"Have someone keep a close eye on the prison. Don't let your guard down for even a moment."
"Don't worry, General. I have made all the arrangements. Just capture as many as you can and see how many of them there are."
Lin Feng counted on his fingers.
"One, two, three. They've used three methods to rescue this Silver-Armored Tartar. I wonder what method they'll use next."
No one could imagine how to get the prisoner out who was under such strict guard.
Bai Jing suddenly asked, "Brother, could there be a traitor among us?"
Lin Feng looked up and thought for a moment.
"There will definitely be a traitor. Anyone can't resist temptation."
"I can handle it."
Bai Jing said firmly.
"That's not tempting enough."
"I can't imagine what kind of temptation could make me waver."
"I can't imagine it either, but in a certain environment and mood, there might be some kind of temptation that makes you fall in love."
Li Hu scratched his head and asked in confusion.
"General, should we investigate the traitor?"
Lin Feng shook his head: "Now we don't even know who our opponent is, let alone the traitor. We can only wait."
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait until he jumps out."
"Brother, this is a bit passive."
"There are still 15,000 Tartars outside the city. If we go to investigate the traitor, it will cause panic in the entire castle. This is not a good idea."
The room fell silent, everyone was racking their brains for a solution.
"Go and rest. Let them take turns guarding. Let them starve for three days, and then go in and capture them."
Lin Feng didn't have any good solution for the time being.
"But, General, what if they commit suicide?"
Li Hu asked.
"There's nothing I can do. These people are ready to die. In desperation, they will definitely attack me."
After discussing for a long time without any results, Lin Feng took his men to the city wall.
He wanted to see if there was any unusual movement in the Tatar camp.
The others took turns to rest to ensure that there was a leader watching over the prison.
The Tatar camp was very quiet. It was more than 20 miles away from the castle, and both sides could see each other's movements clearly.
Lin Feng thought that the Tartars were going to stay here for a long time.
So as to confine himself to the castle.
There was no movement from the government troops and border troops. It seemed that the two generals did not want to consume their own troops.
Lin Feng walked around the castle and saw that everything was in order.
Those who need to speed up construction are busy.
For the soldiers to be trained, a training ground was opened up within the new castle.
The Tatar army did not affect the training of Lin Feng's soldiers.
After a day of wandering around, Lin Feng returned to the command center at dinner time.
I saw that Bai Jing had already brought dinner to the table and was waiting for me to come back.
After washing up, Lin Feng sat down at the table and looked at some side dishes.
"Hey, do you have any wine? Get some for me."
Bai Jing said angrily, "What's so good about that? It's bitter and spicy."
"Hehe, this thing, men just can't get away from it."
Bai Jing shook her head and turned to get the wine.
At this moment, a soldier hurried into the yard.
Arrived at the door of Lin Feng's house.
"Report, General, the government troops are here to request assistance. Master Su and his men were attacked outside the city."
Lin Feng was stunned.
"Send the messenger over here."
The soldier turned around and walked out of the courtyard, calling the soldiers of the palace army waiting outside to enter the courtyard.
Lin Feng stood up and went out, looking at the soldiers in front of him.
He was covered in dust, his face was covered in sweat and black dust.
The helmet was crooked.
"General Lin, my Master Su, General Cui, and Lord Zhao were attacked by thirty Tartar cavalrymen eighty miles north of the west city."
As he spoke, the soldier handed over a badge with both hands.
Xie Zhong took the badge, took a look at it, and then handed it to Lin Feng with both hands.
Lin Feng saw that it was a piece of jade with the word "Su" engraved on it.
I know it's true. I seem to have seen this card on Su Yun's waist.
Then he frowned and asked, "What are they doing there?"
The soldier said hurriedly, "I'm not sure, but they said they were going to some village to look for something."
"How many men did you bring?"
"Two hundred guards."
"More than thirty Tartars, why are you panicking?"
"The Tartars were fierce and scattered us right away. I'm a good rider, so Master Su sent me here to report the situation and ask for help."
Looking at the anxious look of the soldiers, their bodies were shaking from running so fast, it didn't look like they were acting.
These days, Zhao Shuo often plays with Cui Ying and others.
These four second-generation officials must have felt that they had enough fun in the city, so they ran out of the city.
Several of them have strong backgrounds and cannot afford to make any mistakes here.
Lin Feng didn't even have time to eat. He immediately called Xie Chong and personally led a hundred elite cavalrymen out of the city to support him.
Before leaving the city, he ordered Zhang Changyou, who was guarding the west gate, to keep a close eye on the movements of the Tartar camp.
Once there is any abnormality, immediately organize people to intercept.
Then, he urged his horse out of the city and followed the soldier who brought the news, rushing westward.
The journey was more than eighty miles, but Lin Feng and his companions rode fast and arrived at the destination in less than two quarters of an hour.
There is a village ahead, but there are no villagers inside.
The soldier pointed at the village and shouted, "General Lin, it was in this village that the Tartars broke in."
It was already getting dark, and everything in the distance was blurry.
When we arrived at the village entrance, we didn't hear any sounds of fighting inside.
Lin Feng looked at the soldier in confusion.
"What about people?"
The soldier pointed to the village and said, "General, when I ran away, everyone was in the village."
Lin Feng listened carefully and found that the village was very quiet.
When he turned around again, he saw the soldier urging his horse to rush towards the village.
"General Lin, it will be too late if we don't enter the village now!"
He shouted loudly, and in a moment, he disappeared at the entrance of the village.
Xie Zhong shouted loudly from the side: "General, this is a trick!"
Lin Feng glanced around and saw nothing unusual.
Relying on his one hundred elite cavalry, they are not only well-equipped but also highly skilled in martial arts.
He could charge in and out among thousands of Tatar cavalry and was invincible.
Take a deep breath.
"follow me."
Lin Feng turned his horse around and began to circle the village.
How could it be so easy to trick me?
I don’t know which villain dares to play such evil tricks on me.
After walking around the village, I found nothing.
The village is still as quiet as before.
Logically speaking, if there was an ambush, we should have rushed out, right?
Lin Feng didn't enter the village, so their ambush inside was useless.
One hundred elite cavalrymen formed a defensive formation and immediately waited outside the village for the enemy to appear.
Unexpectedly, after waiting for a while, there was still no movement in the village.
Lin Feng frowned: "Fuck, we might have been fooled."
