Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Got the order!"

Everyone responded in unison, quickly dispersed into various parts of the courtyard, and began to rummage through boxes and cabinets to look for clues.

As for whether we can find anything valuable, we don't know!

Along the way, Liu Ziyu got so much information about Fei Daqiang.

Later, he overtook the rear army led by Fei Daqiang and chased Wu Yucao and his group's center army.

Because the speed was so fast, any news from Fei Daqiang's side was not delivered in time.

"I didn't expect that this Fei Daqiang has some abilities. It's not an exaggeration to say that he is brave and resourceful."

After listening to Liu Ziyu's narration, Jin Yuanbao couldn't help but nod secretly: "Sure enough, the people brought back by the commander himself are definitely not simple people! I just don't know how much food and grass he has purchased now, and whether anything happened to him later."

Speaking of food and grass, Jin Yuanbao looked a little weird. He was the young master of Jinyuan Bank. When he was in the Jianchun faction, he was also responsible for the economic operations of the Lin Yi faction.

Fei Daqiang's method of purchasing a large amount of grain and grass supplies to lure the enemy cannot be said to be bad, but such a large amount of supplies...can't be consumed at all!

You can't go back and give things back to others to offset the account, right?

While Jin Yuanbao was talking, he was thinking about what to do with this batch of grain and grass supplies.

Although there are several methods, he is a military strategist and it is not convenient for him to interfere too much in logistics.

If it was someone from Jian Chun who came with him, he would be able to speak frankly, but Fei Daqiang...the two of them are not familiar with each other!

He could only wait until he saw Fei Daqiang later, and then use a more tactful attitude to discuss what to do.

After hearing this, Wu Yucao had another thought: "Commander Fei is so powerful in combat. Although the rear army is indeed a bit weak, if he can follow the commander, he will definitely be able to play a greater role."

Lin Yi was involved in danger alone. Even if he was powerful, Wu Yucao could not help but worry.

She knew that Song Shaopeng, the deputy commander of the Guards Battalion, was pretty good.

But next to Lin Yi, there was nothing to show.

In contrast, Fei Daqiang's fighting ability seems more suitable to help Lin Yi.

"The Commander-in-Chief has arranged for Commander Fei to be in the rear army. Naturally, the Commander-in-Chief has the right to do so. Deputy Commander, you don’t have to worry about the Commander-in-Chief! With the Commander-in-Chief’s strength, even if he has an army of 100,000 people, he can still take the head of an admiral like a bag. , don’t worry.”

Zhang Yiming understood Wu Yucao's thoughts, so he offered some words of comfort.

There was nothing more to say next. They chatted for a few words and then dispersed, preparing to set off to meet Lin Yi early tomorrow morning.

At this time, Lin Yi had no time to rest. After taking over Huo Lian City, there were still many things to do.

The soldiers who were originally captured in Huokang City were released, and then the soldiers from Selenium Copper County became prisoners and were imprisoned together.

The newly released soldiers had no time to repair themselves. After having a full meal, they began to clean up the city defense.

Two thousand of the more elite soldiers were selected, fully armed with bows, arrows, swords, guns, and armor. They mounted on the captured black spirit horses and followed Lin Yi and the eight hundred guards battalion out of the city quickly, disappearing into the darkness in the distance.

Lin Yi's target this time was Duoyao City, which was relatively close to Huoyan City, but it was not a direct attack on the city. An attack by eight hundred cavalry to defeat 70,000 soldiers was not replicable.

After the news from Huoyang City was passed on, the people of Selenium Copper County would definitely be on guard, and it was almost impossible for the Guards Battalion to repeat the previous results.

As for the extra two thousand Fire Sickle City soldiers... they will only become a drag on things like attacking the camp. It would be better not to take them with you!

"Commander, wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to ambush here?"

At dawn, Lin Yi and his team hid in the thatch on the roadside. This piece of thatch was about as tall as a person and was about twenty meters away from the road.

Song Shaopeng had some doubts about this.

To be honest, this is not a suitable place for an ambush.

If the cavalry on the road looked into the thatched field, they could easily see that a large area of ​​thatched grass had been crushed.

Especially everyone on Lin Yi's side has a dark spirit. When standing up, the height is much higher than that of thatch. He can only lie down on the ground to barely hide himself.

"You don't think it's appropriate either, so the people from Selenium Copper County won't think they'll be ambushed here!"

Lin Yi smiled faintly and explained briefly to Song Shaopeng: "Of the people who escaped from the camp in Huoyan City, there will definitely be people who took a detour to Duoyou City to report the situation. It doesn't matter even if they don't. The few people you arranged to escape before, It should accomplish the task.”

"They didn't know our number before the attack on the camp, but it was made clear later. As long as those who fled back did not lie about the military situation and exaggerate our number by more than a hundred times, the Selenium Copper County Army in Duoyao City would be We will definitely set off to attack Fire Scythe City immediately!"

"And this road is the only way from Duoyao City to Huoyan City. As long as they come, we will have a chance to do something big again! As for whether our ambush will be exposed, you can rest assured!"

As Lin Yi spoke, he activated the plant properties in his body, and the crushed thatch emerged from the sides one after another, spreading tenaciously upwards.

Soon, the large areas of collapse caused by the ambush returned to their original appearance - at least that's how it looked!

Moreover, the bodies of the ambush soldiers will not be affected. The originally straight thatch is twisted to avoid people and horses, forming a space. Although it is a bit narrow, it is not uncomfortable.

Song Shaopeng was stunned, could he still play like this?

He couldn't help but stand up and look around. In the darkness before dawn, there was really nothing unusual about this piece of thatch!

"Commander, your methods are really powerful...but this seems to be the function of plant attributes, right?"

Song Shaopeng was confused and asked quickly, then secretly regretted it.

Plant attributes appeared more often in the declining Kuronye family, and almost no one in the Sima family was heard of having them.

It was really taboo for him to ask this.

Lin Yi didn't care, and didn't think much. He just responded with a smile, and then said in a deep voice: "As expected, the people from Duoyou City are rushing to the aid of Huoyan City!"

Song Shaopeng was startled and couldn't care less about the properties of plants. He quickly fell to the ground, put his ears to the ground, and listened to the movement of the earth.

Sure enough, there was a slight vibration in the distance. Because of this, Song Shaopeng was even more amazed. How could the commander know about such a long distance?

Amazing!

Lin Yi naturally would not explain the power of spiritual consciousness. As long as it is within the detection range, not only can he know the arrival of reinforcements from Duoyuan City, but also how many people and horses are coming and what weapons they are using!

"Commander, the enemy army is still about seven or eight miles away, and the number is about 30,000!"

Although Song Shaopeng has no spiritual consciousness, he can still make a rough judgment through the art of earth hearing.
