Chapter 178 You Dare to Act Wildly Against Me
Chapter 178 You Dare to Act Wildly Against Me
Lin Feng glanced at Qin Fang indifferently.
"Qin Fang, if you feel my behavior is excessive, I won't make it difficult for you. Try to distance yourself from me and others to avoid delaying your future."
"Qin Fang has long said that he will follow the boss's lead."
"Okay, remember what you said today. Go and rest first. I'm tired."
The two of them retreated silently.
In the border town, General Qin received a report that Lin Feng had come alone on horseback to the camp outside the city.
And he was seriously injured.
He quickly asked someone to call Du Lisheng.
"General Du, did you go to the camp to get some food and fodder a few days ago?"
"General, my men have run out of food. I have no choice but to go and get some for a while."
"Have you discussed this matter with Lin Feng?"
Du Lisheng laughed and said, "General, I'm a general in charge of the army, and I need to communicate with a lieutenant commander like him to get some food and fodder?"
Qin Zhong fell silent.
He knew about this, but didn't think it was a big deal at the time.
Indeed, a general of the Fujun Army has a powerful background behind him.
Going to a camp under the border town to get some food and fodder is not a big deal at all.
It was not until Lin Feng arrived that Qin Zhong thought about it carefully and felt that it was not appropriate.
Judging from Lin Feng's personality, this matter is probably not a small matter.
"I heard that Lin Feng was injured and is now in the camp. You should go and visit him on behalf of the government army."
"Haha, General, you're joking. A lieutenant commander, isn't that overestimating him?"
"General Du, have you ever thought about where our food and fodder come from? Who in the army could have killed over a thousand Tartars?"
"General, this guy is just lucky. We have many brave generals under our command. There is no need to do this."
Qin Zhong was helpless as this guy was never very obedient.
Relying on the connections he has in the palace, he always goes against me.
"Forget it, let Mu Wu and Sun Yang go."
Du Lisheng stood up and bowed to Qin Zhong.
"General, this is not necessary. I will take my leave."
After saying this, he turned around and walked out without waiting for Qin Zhong to speak.
Qin Zhong could only shake his head helplessly.
After a day and a night of gathering troops everywhere, Lin Qiaomei and Wei Bao, each with a dozen soldiers, arrived at the border town camp.
Even if these were the only people left, they were all injured.
Xie Chong was also transported back.
There is still no news about Fan Jinsong.
Six of Lin Feng's thirty elite guards returned.
This battle was extremely brutal.
There were nearly two hundred men in total, but now less than forty are alive.
They all had injuries of varying degrees of severity.
Qin Fang and Yu Lei also understood the situation and sighed in regret.
He was able to rush into the Tartars' important food and fodder areas, burn their food and fodder, and still escape alive.
It is already very difficult to have so many people left.
That would be a big victory.
A historic victory.
Lin Feng always does unexpected things.
Inside Lingdouzi Castle, on the gate tower.
Li Donglai raised his long sword and looked down at the groups of Tatar soldiers who were rushing towards the city wall in waves.
The soldiers and engineers defending the city threw kerosene cans and stones at the Tartars below the city.
Even civilians were mobilized to the city walls to help defend against the Tatar attacks.
Many people were shot by arrows and fell to the ground from time to time.
Li Dong saw that the Tartars were attacking the city very quickly, so he had to take his guards, ride on war horses, and patrol around the city.
When they found that some Tartars had climbed onto the city wall, they rushed over in time and assisted the soldiers to knock them down from the city.
The situation became extremely critical.
There are too many Tartars.
At this critical moment, more than a dozen officials from the Protectorate climbed onto the city wall.
Looking at the huge crowd of Tartar soldiers outside the city, he suddenly began to tremble all over.
Zhou Tongzhi took the lead and grabbed Li Donglai.
"General Li, where is General Lin?"
Li Donglai was busy putting out fires and finishing off the enemy, so he had no time to deal with them.
"Sir Zhou, General Lin is busy and cannot tell you."
Zhou Tongzhi suddenly became anxious.
"Is the current situation urgent? The Tartars are about to break into the city, and Lin Feng is not commanding from the top of the city. Where has he gone?"
Li Donglai glanced at the officials and said coldly.
"Just stay in the inn and relax. Even if the Tartars break into the city, they will have to walk over my corpse."
"Your body is nothing. We want to know where Lin Feng went."
"Military operations, inconvenient to disclose."
Zhou Tongzhi immediately became angry and shouted loudly.
"Bullshit, what military action? It's obvious that he saw the situation was bad and ran away first!"
Li Donglai glared and said, "Master Zhou, be careful with your words. Don't shake the morale of my army."
"Bah, who do you think you are? How dare you be so rude to me?"
"I am nothing. If you don't let go, the steel knife in my hand will be nothing."
Zhou Tongzhi was furious and grabbed Li Donglai's collar with even greater force.
"Boy, you are a traitor. You have a knife in your hand, so how dare you act so wildly against me?"
A group of officials surrounded Li Donglai, shouting and cursing.
Once they were in chaos, the soldiers and civilians defending the city walls also became panicked.
Some Tartars took advantage of the chaos to climb onto the wall.
The Tatars are brave and fierce. As long as we engage in close combat with them, we will inevitably be defeated.
Li Donglai suddenly became very anxious when he saw this group of officials arguing endlessly.
He shouted, "Get out of here, or I'll be rude!"
Zhou Tongzhi became more and more excited, grabbing his clothes, foaming at the mouth and shouting curses.
"Lin Feng, tell Lin Feng to get out, this coward who escaped from the battlefield..."
Li Donglai turned around and saw several Tartars fiercely chasing and killing the soldiers and civilians on the city wall.
He gritted his teeth and swung the steel knife in his hand.
With a snap, Zhou Tongzhi's head was cut off.
The chaotic scene suddenly stopped.
More than a dozen officials opened their mouths wide, staring in shock at the head rolling to the ground and the blood splattering everywhere.
Someone shouted, "Killing officials is treason..."
Following the shouts, a group of officials ran hurriedly towards the city.
Li Donglai breathed a sigh of relief and, without caring about anything else, brandished his sword and led his guards to rush towards the Tartars on the city wall.
After knocking down a few Tartars, Li Donglai mounted his horse and continued to patrol the city.
I didn't dare to think about anything else, it was like trying to plug a dilapidated house that was leaking everywhere.
Finally, it was getting dark and the signal to withdraw was sounded in the Tartar army.
The Tartars who had just been charging towards the city bravely retreated with a loud splash like a receding tide of black sea water.
The soldiers and civilians defending the city sat down on the city wall, gasping for breath.
But Li Donglai frowned and looked at the Tartars retreating back to the camp.
Given the current situation, I'm afraid that Lingdouzi Castle will be destroyed tomorrow.
I don’t know how Lin Feng is doing and when he will come back?
In the evening, news from Lingdouzi Castle reached the border town camp.
The Tatars attacked the city like crazy. Although the castle was not lost, they suffered heavy losses.
I don’t know if I can hold on the next day.
Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the news.
If we can survive today, this defensive battle can be considered a victory.
Tonight, the king will lead two thousand soldiers and enter the castle at night.
The Tartars had lost most of their food supplies and definitely could not hold out for two days.
While everyone was comforting and discussing with each other, they heard the report from the soldiers.
"Lord Mu Wu and General Sun Yang of the Border City Army have come to offer their condolences."
