The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 348 Li Ling’s clever plan

The king of Jin could not wait patiently for three more days. Early in the morning on the third day, the king of Jin couldn't wait to find Li Ling's tent again.

Li Ling got up early and returned from practicing martial arts. He was having breakfast. When he saw King Jin coming over again, he just raised his eyes and asked, "Can the prince have some food? Do you want me to get a pair of bowls and chopsticks for the prince?"

King Jin was so anxious that he couldn't find anything to eat. He just smiled and replied: "I have already used it, so please use it yourself."

When Li Ling saw his refusal, he said nothing more and ignored the anxious waiting of King Jin beside him, scratching his head and scratching his head, and continued to have breakfast in a leisurely manner.

King Jin finally waited until Li Ling had finished his breakfast. Before he could ask about when he would attack the city, Li Ling said, "I am going to patrol the camp. Do you want to go with me, Your Majesty?"

King Jin finally couldn't hold back his temper anymore and asked Li Ling, "Didn't my cousin say you would give me an answer today? Why don't you march quickly? Are you still hiding it from me?"

Li Ling glanced at the anxious King Jin and replied: "It's time to patrol the camp now, we'll talk about it when we get back."

Having said that, Li Ling did not wait for the King of Jin to react, and strode out of the camp with a sudden stride. He turned over and mounted his horse. He crossed his legs and headed towards the training ground for the soldiers like lightning.

King Jin had no choice but to get on his horse and ran out after Li Ling.

Li Ling had long expected that these treacherous sycophants who only knew how to wield power would play tricks on the transportation of grain and fodder, so he ordered Yang Guang to lead his men to ambush him on the way early in the morning. When the imperial officials escorted the grain and fodder to the northwest, the princelings spread the news.

, these escort officers colluded with the so-called mob, and they wanted to cut off Li Ling's grain road.

Li Ling really didn't like this King Jin, but he couldn't stand his warm way of getting along with others. Li Ling took away King Jin's hand and held his hand. He didn't answer his questions, but faced the soldiers under his tent.

He ordered: "Go and recruit all the soldiers to the tent. I have something to announce."

The King of Jin put his palms in his hands and laughed and said: "The prince used such a dark method to make me return in vain, but now I want to earn unparalleled achievements to show him."

When King Jin heard this, the smile on his face immediately froze. He replied with a sneer: "My cousin is really joking. You have so many powerful generals under your command. How can I be used? Besides, I am the deputy commander-in-chief."

You and your cousin should sit at the rear and strategize, there is no reason for the commander-in-chief to fight in the vanguard."

King Jin was filled with indignation when he saw Li Ling's expressionless face. He stepped forward, pulled Li Ling, and leaned in front of him and said: "Cousin, I'm sure the prince is behind this. He just wants to kill us both. I

Now go back and write a petition for divorce to Emperor Father. As the coach, you should also report this matter to Emperor Father."

If he rushes to start the battle, if the supply of food and grass is not available halfway through the battle, then everything will be in vain. Now that the food and grass are in place, it is naturally time to recover the lost city in one go.

After hearing this, King Jin's face immediately lit up with joy. He looked at Li Ling and said, "Cousin, you are finally going to march, aren't you?"

When the army started, food and grass went first. However, Li Ling's journey to counter the rebellion in the northwest was urgent, and the food and grass he brought with the army was only enough for half a month. The rest needed to be continuously transported by the court.

How could these powerful people conceal their shameless schemes from Li Ling?

Yang Guang understood and replied to the King of Jin: "To tell you the truth, the grain and grass shipped by the Ministry of War were robbed by the mob on the way. The marshal ordered me to lead people to take the grain and grass back again."

Li Ling hated talking to others, so he glanced at King Jin and winked at Yang Guang.

Li Ling entered the Chinese army tent, sat down on the main seat, looked at Yang Guang and asked, "Have you brought all the food and grass back?"

Li Ling rode his horse and stood on the coaching platform. After watching the soldiers' drill, he crossed his legs and the horse kicked off the coaching platform, and jogged around the training field.

Li Ling glanced at King Jin and replied: "Exactly."

Li Ling glanced at the smiling King Jin and said with a sneer: "Your Majesty has been urging me to send troops. I have decided to attack the city tomorrow. Do you want me to be the vanguard?"

Such a mighty and majestic moment makes people's blood boil.

As a general, Li Ling had to patrol the camp every day. When his soldiers in heavy armor saw Li Ling's figure, the elite divisions like a black tide let out deafening shouts, and the bright weapons in the hands of the soldiers

The swords, guns, swords and halberds shot out a dazzling cold light against the rising sun.

The reason why Li Ling did not attack Fancheng early when he arrived was because he was waiting for food and fodder.

King Jin was not a fool. When he heard this, he stood up immediately, patted the table and said: "What was taken away by the mob? I think it was clearly the escort officers who colluded with the mob. Escorting military rations is such an important matter.

Can a few mobs take away the general's food? Humph! Someone must be causing trouble."

Yang Guang stepped forward and cupped his fists at Li Ling and said: "If you tell me back to the marshal, there will be no shortage of grains. A total of 2,600 tons of grain and grass will be taken back by the general."

King Jin followed Li Ling closely, and naturally he knew that the loud shouts of the thousands of troops were not directed at him. He raised his eyes and looked at Li Ling, who was riding a horse in front of him with a straight posture, and he couldn't help but feel a deep feeling in his heart.

Feelings of envy.

Yang Guang was about to resign. The King of Jin, who was sitting next to him and was confused, looked at Li Ling and asked, "Cousin, what's going on? What kind of food and grass? Shouldn't the food and grass for our army be escorted by the Ministry of War? What on earth is going on?"

"

Although these fortune-telling officers were from princelings, they were sent by the imperial court. Naturally, Li Ling would not brazenly take the food directly from their hands. He would simply let the so-called mob take it first, and then he would take it from the mob.

Just grab it.

The soldiers were practicing, and when they saw the marshal coming to inspect, they worked even harder. The rising sun was shining brightly, and the vast expanse of the training ground was filled with flying sand and rocks.

After Li Ling completed his inspection of the military battle, he rode back to the camp. Yang Guang, his trusted general who had been sent out by Li Ling a few days ago, happened to be waiting outside the tent.

Li Ling nodded towards Zhao Guang and replied: "Thank you for your hard work."

Li Ling looked at Zhao Jin coldly. If he was just an ordinary person, Li Ling would not even look at him seriously, but this person was the one the Holy Emperor wanted to establish as the crown prince.

Li Ling really couldn't imagine what it would be like if the country of Qi that millions of soldiers devoted their blood to protect fell into the hands of someone like Zhao Jin.

When King Jin saw that Li Ling's expression turned cold, he stepped forward with a smile and said, "Cousin, I'm really not trying to push the envelope. My strength is that I am good at planning, not martial arts. Cousin, please let me."

Before he could finish talking, Li Ling replied coldly: "We cannot call ourselves brothers in the army. Your Majesty, be careful what you say in the future."
