Chapter 196 Men Are Not As Good As Women
The three of them rode their horses all the way and finally rushed back to Huaicheng. It was already daybreak, and the surroundings outside the city were all green. The tense atmosphere of the upcoming war enveloped every corner. The few people riding horses and galloping on the road were particularly eye-catching.
When they arrived at the city gate, the guards in charge of intercepting them recognized them at a glance as Lieutenant General Lin, Supervisor Ling, and Lieutenant General Yang.
They immediately bowed their heads, saluted, and quickly opened the city gate to let these people in.
Lin Qingyan and others originally planned to return to the tent to wash up first, and then report the situation to Li Feng.
However, before they could go back, a soldier saw them coming back, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he grinned and led them to the commander's tent.
As soon as they entered the tent, they saw Li Feng sitting alone in the upper seat, staring intently at the drawings on the table, his brows tightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
After hearing the noise, she looked up. When she saw that they were back, the sadness on her face instantly disappeared. The corners of her mouth slightly raised and she said, "I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back."
"How are you? Are you all not hurt?" Li Feng took a big step and walked to the people who had rushed back from a dusty journey like a whirlwind, and looked them up and down carefully.
Yang Xin was the first to bow his head, clasp his fists and half-bow and report: "General, I, Deputy General Lin and Supervisor Ling have successfully completed the task of burning the enemy camp."
Li Feng, who was checking to see if they were injured, was stunned when he heard this, then burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, good, good, tell me, how did you do it?"
This time it was Yang Xin's turn to be stunned. How did she do it? She thought carefully about everything that had happened along the way. It seemed that she had done nothing, and yet it seemed that she had done everything.
He killed two people on the way, poured a jar of strong liquor in the food camp, and then followed the footsteps of the two men and ran back in a daze.
Li Feng asked her for details. She organized her broken speech and said with embarrassment, "I...I followed the orders of Deputy General Lin and Supervisor Ling on the way. I killed two people on the way, and then found food and grass. I secretly poured a jar of strong liquor, burned it, and ran back in a daze."
"Oh? It's not you, then it seems it was done by Lieutenant General Lin?" Li Feng looked at Yang Xin's confused face and looked at Lin Qingyan with lack of interest.
Lin Qingyan smiled slightly, like a blooming flower, and said softly: "I don't have that ability, but I have a smart husband."
Ling Nianxiao?
Li Feng's gaze immediately shifted to him. He had seen Lin Qingyan's extraordinary demeanor in the Jinwu Palace before, and considering the fine salt she had made before, he thought that she would be the one to steal the show again this time.
I didn’t expect it to be Ling Nianxiao?
The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile, like a cunning fox, she became interested, looked at the young man who had been ignored by her for the past few days and asked: "What method did Ling Jianjun use?"
Ling Nianxiao glanced at Lin Qingyan and knew that she was deliberately giving the credit to him, but he didn't bother to be polite with her.
“Reporting to the commander, when Lieutenant General Yang and Lieutenant General Lin and I arrived near the enemy city, we left our horses in a forest in order to avoid attracting attention, and then sneaked into the grass at the foot of the enemy city.
I overheard the conversation of the enemy city guards and learned that the food and fodder were actually at the city gate. Combined with the drawings you gave me, I judged that the food and fodder were in the tent not far from the south city gate.
The guards would take shifts at certain times. We would ambush them on the route they had to take and peel off their skin to sneak in.
Lieutenant General Lin made a feint to the east and attacked in the west. He caught a few snakes nearby and threw them into the tents where people lived. This action created great chaos. A large number of guards at the city gate, who were confused, thought it was an enemy attack and rushed over.
We then sprinkled strong liquor on the food and grass and set it on fire. The remaining guards at the city gate ran to put out the fire. The camp was immediately in chaos, and we took advantage of the chaos to escape through the unguarded city gate.
The calm tone of voice could not make people ignore the danger, as if huge waves were hidden beneath the calm surface of the lake. If they made a mistake and their identities were discovered, even if their martial arts skills were profound, two fists would be no match for four hands, and they would definitely be caught in the trap.
Is this kind of courage and spirit really something the young man in front of me can possess?
This is much better than many women!
Li Feng suppressed the shock in her heart and tried her best to look calm, but her slightly widened eyes betrayed her uneasy heart.
Not to mention her, even Yang Xin opened her mouth in shock, blinking at Ling Nianxiao, unable to speak.
She just followed them, not realizing that things were so simple and not that complicated.
Looking at the two people in front of her who seemed to be petrified, Lin Qingyan smiled proudly: "What do you think? I said my husband is smart, right?"
At this moment, no one cared about her smug look, and everyone was captivated by what Ling Nianxiao said.
After a while, Li Feng laughed and waved his hand: "Someone come here."
A soldier walked in from the door. She first looked up at the young master standing next to her, then lowered her head and knelt on one knee: "Marshal."
Li Feng couldn't hide the smile on his face, and said loudly: "Give the order, I will hold a banquet tonight to celebrate the great event of Ling Jianjun burning the enemy's food and grass."
"Yes." The soldier also heard the conversation in the room when she was guarding the door just now. At this moment, she has become Ling Nianxiao's number one fan.
She couldn't help but look up at Lin Qingyan and said enviously, "Deputy General Lin is so lucky."
After saying that, he quickly ran out.
Lin Qingyan was not angry, but responded with a playful smile: "Of course, my husband is the most powerful in the world, and my blessing is not comparable to that of ordinary people."
"Hahahaha, you little rascal, come and drink with me tonight and don't go home until you are drunk!" Li Feng was in a good mood and felt happy from the bottom of his heart.
Having such talents around her gave her unprecedented confidence in this war.
That night everyone in the army knew what Ling Nianxiao had done. Although they did not show it on their faces, they all admired Ling Nianxiao in their hearts.
A man with such courage to break into the enemy camp, with such a smart brain to come up with a plan in a critical moment, and able to escape unscathed after burning the enemy camp.
It’s true that men are just as good as women!
As expected, he is the son of Prime Minister Ling!
As expected, he is the number one female man, Ling Nianxiao!
They all raised their glasses to toast Ling Nianxiao: "General Ling, Deputy General Lin, we are so lucky to have your help in this battle! I will drink this glass of wine first!"
"I admire what you have done. From now on, whenever Supervisor Ling gives you an order, I, Zhang Wuma, will be at your disposal!" After saying that, she also drank the wine in the glass.
Yang Xin also raised her glass. Ling Nianxiao and Lin Qingyan raised their eyebrows and looked at her, curious about what polite words she could say.
