Chapter 517: The Feeling of Feather Arrows Falling from the Sky
After returning to his residence, Pei Qiyin quickly got into character.
Originally, Cheng Liang and Wen Jian were responsible for taking care of Lin Feng's daily life and diet, but they were immediately replaced by Pei Qiyin.
She first fetched some clean water and helped Lin Feng wash up.
Then he went to the kitchen and prepared the food himself.
Lin Feng asked them to sit down and eat together.
Pei Qiyin smiled and shook his head, insisting on standing aside, waiting for Lin Feng to eat.
Xiaojuzi unceremoniously sat down opposite Lin Feng, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
While eating, Lin Feng asked, "Xiaojuzi, when are you leaving?"
"Well, let's go after dinner."
"It's almost dark, how are we going to get there?"
Little Orange tilted his head and smiled: "It will be easier to go after dark."
Lin Feng couldn't get any words out of the little girl, so he could only glance at Pei Qiyin who was standing obediently beside him.
"Why didn't I see you at Xiehua Tower?"
"I help Shuxue take care of the inner chambers and usually don't go out of the backyard."
Pei Qiyin replied in a soft voice.
Lin Feng laughed: "Haven't I ever been in the backyard?"
"I was out in the backyard at the time."
Both of them kept their mouths shut, so Lin Feng had no choice but to lower his head and eat seriously.
After dinner, Pei Qiyin began to clean up the dishes.
Xiaojuzi stood up and waved at Lin Feng.
"Big brother, I'm leaving."
After saying that, he walked out of the room without waiting for Lin Feng to speak.
She walked as casually as if she was going to visit a neighbor, leaving Lin Feng stunned for a long while.
"You...are really okay..."
Looking at the small figure disappearing at the door, Lin Feng murmured.
At night, Pei Qiyin lit a candle and began to make Lin Feng's bed.
Lin Feng went to the living room in the front yard and summoned several senior generals to discuss how to fight back against the rebels besieging the city.
After nearly ten days of preparation, all equipment has basically been repaired.
It's time to deal a devastating blow to the rebels.
Lin Feng looked at the map in front of him and tapped it with his fingers.
"They have garrisoned troops at all four gates of Tianzhi City, especially the east, west, and north gates, where they only have a little over 10,000 troops."
Lin Feng looked up and glanced at everyone.
"How much do they look down on us?"
Hu Jincai looked depressed: "Boss, if you hadn't told me not to move, I would have rushed out and killed them."
Chu Jiao stretched out three fingers: "I only have 3,000 heavy armors, but I can sweep through four gates."
Others wanted to speak, but Lin Feng raised his hand to stop them.
"I entered the city for a purpose, not just to escape the siege of 70,000 rebels."
After saying this, Lin Feng stared at several senior generals of the Zhenxi Army present.
"Who can tell me the purpose of our stationing in Tianzhifu City?"
Xie Zhong frowned and said, "It should be to repair the damaged chariots and weapons."
Xi Niang also attended the meeting.
"It's to prepare more thunderbolts to reduce the damage to the Zhenxi Army during the battle."
Lin Feng nodded: "This is the one that's on the surface, is there anything else?"
Seeing that everyone was frowning and thinking hard, no one spoke anymore.
"In theory, with our fighting power, if we go all out to attack the enemy's 70,000 troops, we have a good chance of winning, but we will suffer heavy losses."
Lin Feng said.
"The preparation of the sky thunder is to intimidate the enemy. We must improve our weapons and equipment..."
Having said that, he paused and saw that no one spoke.
"The most important point is that we have held back 70,000 rebels in Tianzhi Prefecture. Will this relieve the pressure on Kyoto?"
"Yeah, it will definitely reduce the pressure."
Lin Qiaomei slammed the table and shouted.
"anything else?"
Lin Feng looked at her.
Lin Qiaomei pouted and shook her head: "No more..."
"Haha, you are both high-ranking generals of a large clan. You will most likely lead your own army in the future. You must use your brains and think more when encountering things. Don't just charge blindly, especially you two."
Lin Feng spoke and pointed at Wang Qian and Lin Qiaomei.
"It sounds nice to say you're leading by example, but have you ever considered that we're human, not gods? On the battlefield, swords and guns are merciless. If something unexpected happens, where will your team go?"
Lin Feng's tone gradually became stern.
"The death of an army commander will not only severely impact the morale of the soldiers, but will also likely lead to the loss of the battle. Think about it yourself, are the consequences serious?"
Wang Qian and Lin Qiaomei both lowered their heads and dared not say a word.
Lin Feng was silent for a moment, allowing everyone present to fully digest his thoughts.
"I'm only saying this for the last time. As a general, you will have your own ideas about what to do in the future. I won't interfere too much. If you can afford the consequences, that's fine. If you can't, I'll have to bear them!"
The room was dead silent. They had never seen Lin Feng so angry before.
Lin Feng let out a long breath and softened his tone.
"We are holding back the rebels to relieve the pressure on the main army. The key is, I don't want them to know our true strength. We shouldn't attack too quickly, or those high-ranking officials in the imperial court will think that breaking the siege is too easy."
Zhao Shuo quickly agreed: "Yes, big brother is absolutely right. Those old guys will think that the rebels are easy to defeat. Fighting hard on the battlefield is just a show for them."
Lin Feng looked at Zhao Shuo with appreciation.
"All military actions do not exist independently. They are influenced by many factors, including politics and economics. Winning a war cannot be divorced from politics."
He glanced at everyone and asked, "Can you all figure it out?"
In the room, except for Zhao Shuo and Hu Jincai who nodded thoughtfully, everyone else looked confused.
"Alright, everyone, go back and think it over carefully. All units should be prepared and we will begin the counterattack within the next few days."
When everyone heard that they were going to fight, they were all excited.
I've been stuck in the city for so many days and I feel very uncomfortable.
Everyone else left, but Lin Qiaomei, Xi Niang and Zhao Shuo stayed.
"Brother, I heard there's a beautiful woman in your room. Can I take a look at her?"
Lin Qiaomei also looked at Lin Feng with confusion, waiting for his answer.
Except for Xi Niang and a few close guards, no one else knows about his relationship with Liu Shuxue.
Lin Feng didn't plan to tell anyone because Liu Shuxue had a special identity and needed to act in secret.
The fewer people knew, the safer she would be.
"Why are you involved in everything?"
Zhao Shuo chuckled. He was just worried about Lin Feng's safety and didn't think much about it.
"I want to know what's going on, too."
Lin Qiaomei tilted her head and looked at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was helpless: "This matter will be kept secret for the time being. I will tell you later. Hurry up and prepare."
"What are you preparing for? Are we going to fight tonight?"
This sentence reminded Lin Feng and he changed his mind.
Attacking the rebel camp at night is a good idea.
"That makes sense. Come, let's study it and wipe out one of their camps tonight."
Lin Qiaomei's interest was immediately diverted. She moved closer to Lin Feng and looked at the map on the table.
Lin Feng pointed at the map and said, "Your long-range attack battalion is the best choice. Let them experience the feeling of arrows raining down from the sky tonight."
