Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 227: Different Thoughts

Lin Feng took Bai Jing, Xie Chong, Li Hu and others and patrolled around the city before returning to the command center.

Wei Bao's power was further expanded, and he was not only responsible for the detection of wild cavalry.

He was also in charge of communications within the city.

Now that the urban area has expanded several times, communications must be delivered quickly by someone riding a warhorse.

Lin Feng then set up a communications team, which was led by Wei Bao.

Inside the command center, Cui Ying, Su Yun, Chu Jiao and others had not left yet and were all waiting here.

Lin Feng was very surprised. Everyone knew that 20,000 Tatars were attacking Lingdouzi Castle.

If they don't leave now, it might be too late.

After taking a look at the few people, Lin Feng sat down on the chair.

"Why, do you all want to defend our homeland together with Lin?"

"It's to defend against the Tartars."

Cui Ying rolled his eyes at him.

"Our home is not here, so how can we defend it?"

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Houses and land here are cheap. You can settle down here. I'll give you a discount."

Su Yun shook his head and said, "Looking at you, it seems like you have bad intentions."

Lin Feng waved his hand and said, "Let's get down to business. If you don't leave now, it will be difficult to leave once the Tartar army arrives."

Cui Ying said angrily, "It's all your fault. You took their property for no reason, imprisoned their envoy, and angered them."

"Oh, the Tartars invaded Dazong's territory, burning, killing, looting, and committing all sorts of evil. How come you think I provoked them?"

Zhao Shuo rushed to say, "That's right, it was the Tartars who provoked us."

It was the first time he dared to speak against Cui Ying.

Cui Ying also knew that he was in the wrong and glared at Zhao Shuo.

"You little brat, what do you know!"

Zhao Shuo shrank his neck and dared not argue anymore.

Lin Feng turned to Su Yun and asked, "What about you guys? Why don't you go back to the capital?"

Su Yun had no choice but to turn and look at Chu Jiao.

Chu Jiao looked indifferent.

"What's so scary about the Tartars? Lin Feng is here. I still have something to say."

Lin Feng smiled and nodded: "Well, that's right, Miss Chu is still very clear-headed, just say whatever you want to say."

Chu Jiao bit her lip and pondered for a moment.

"You come out."

After saying that, he walked out of the house first.

Lin Feng glanced at everyone.

Seeing that they all had ambiguous looks on their faces, he sighed helplessly, stood up and followed them out of the house.

The two of them walked away from the others and stopped at a corner of a house.

Chu Jiao didn't even look at Lin Feng, her eyes darting around.

After a while, he said, "I heard that you are engaged to the Jiang family?"

"Yes."

"Why did you accept the invitation in the first place?"

Lin Feng smiled bitterly, "It was just a misunderstanding at first. Due to the urgent military situation, I asked Bai Jing to respond... to entertain Mr. Chen. Maybe they didn't know about my engagement, which is why such a big misunderstanding happened."

"Okay, I don't blame you for this."

"Miss Chu is generous."

Chu Jiao fell silent again, neither saying to leave nor speaking.

"Uh, Miss Chu, if you have nothing else to do, the war is imminent, and Lin has something urgent to do..."

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Chu Jiao.

"Lin Feng, it's common for men to have three wives and four concubines, but you don't have any..."

Although she didn't finish her words, her meaning was very clear.

Lin Feng suddenly started to have a headache again.

If this kind of thing is not handled properly, it will lead to enmity.

He really didn't want to make another enemy because Lin Feng already had too many enemies.

"Ms. Chu, this is not the time to discuss this. Besides, Lin hasn't even married a wife yet, so how can we talk about anything else?"

"I just want to know, are you interested in me?"

Chu Jiao asked persistently.

Lin Feng looked at the woman in front of him who was more masculine than himself.

It seems that he is half a head taller than me.

My brain was urgently searching for excuses.

"Okay, stop making excuses. I understand. I'm not worthy of you!"

After Chu Jiao finished speaking, she strode away.

Only Lin Feng was left standing in the corner of the room in a daze.

Seeing Lin Feng staying alone in the corner of the room, a general came over to ask for instructions.

The war was imminent and there were many military matters that needed to be dealt with, so Lin Feng didn't have time to think too much.

Finally, Li Xiong dragged him to a corner and whispered to him for a long time.

Several groups of people were sent away.

Lin Feng rubbed his head and entered the command center.

Bai Jing quickly brought him hot tea and a silk handkerchief dipped in hot water.

There were only two of them left in the command center.

"Brother, why don't these two groups of people leave?"

Bai Jing asked while wiping Lin Feng's cheek.

Lin Feng drank a sip of tea and looked at the sunset outside the window.

"I have things on my mind and haven't finished them yet. How can I leave?"

"I know what Chu Jiao is about, but what about Cui Ying?"

"These are all troublesome things. I am also very worried. I don't know if we will become enemies."

"Don't you have enough enemies?"

Lin Feng was filled with bitterness and hatred: "Who wants to make enemies? Isn't it better to have more friends?"

Bai Jing massaged his neck and shoulders.

"With your personality, you're destined to have few friends."

Lin Feng didn't say anything. Could there be a moment of silence?

He closed his eyes and enjoyed Bai Jing's tenderness.

But the next moment, a soldier came to report.

"General, to the west, there are nearly 5,000 Tartars, and they are within 80 miles of the castle."

As soon as the soldier finished speaking, another soldier ran in.

"Report, General, there are nearly ten thousand Tartar troops in the southwest, approaching within a hundred miles of the castle."

Lin Feng nodded to show that he understood.

Wei Bao's cavalry circle was very open and could conduct reconnaissance over a hundred miles away.

The only ones missing are the Tatars in the southeast, who will probably arrive soon.

"The Tartars have invested heavily this time, using almost all their military power against such a remote place as ours."

Bai Jing analyzed worriedly.

Seeing that Lin Feng didn't say anything, he asked again.

"Brother, do you think the border towns will send out troops to tie up the Tartars' fighting power?"

"Well, judging by General Qin's actions, he will probably harass the Tartar camp."

"Where are the border troops?"

"Border troops? Haha, I'm afraid I can't wait for the Tartars to destroy me."

"Cui Ying is here with us."

Lin Feng frowned and thought.

“That’s what confuses me.”

He sighed, "Let's just wait and see what happens. What's coming can't be stopped."

The Tartar army advanced very quickly. By dark, they had advanced about thirty miles.

The camp was set up less than thirty miles away from the castle.

The other route also reached fifty miles.

The Tatar army from the southeast also appeared eighty miles away from the castle.

The three Tatar armies were divided into three directions and surrounded Lingdouzi Castle in the middle.

The three silver-armored men who led the team this time were all shocked by the city wall in front of them.

Especially the man in silver armor, who stared blankly at the tall city walls, and wondered for a moment, how could it be another border town?

Bilan looked even more helpless.

How could his soldiers attack with such a city wall?

It was the first time that Wendihan led his troops into battle. Seeing such a high city, he had no idea how to attack it.

He only asked 10,000 people to set up camp and start building a stronghold.

He planned to confront Lin Feng for a long time.

Just like a border town, suppress the enemy and let the soldiers in other camps go out to plunder.

On the north side of Lingdouzi Castle is Yinjia Bilan, who is the most frustrated member of the team.

The entire camp had 5,000 men and horses, with a huge castle to the south and an endless wilderness behind them.

To the east of him was Qingshui County and Qingshui Military Camp.

His camp was located right on the chord of the Qingshui Triangle and faced threats from three camps.

In addition, he had already been defeated twice, and both he and his generals were under great psychological pressure.
