Chapter 13 On the Mission
After ten days, Ling Feng was facing the scorching sun, and the upper part of his body was already good, Tan Shuxu said that he had something to do, Ling Feng really didn't expect Tan Shuxu to let himself go out of the mountain and find something.
That night, it was just the right night, Ling Feng was by the side of the sandfly (the name of the horse), and was giving him Shunshun Mao, Tan Shuxu walked over slowly, and Ling Feng knelt on one knee, "Master." ”
Tan Shuxu appeared three black lines in an instant, how could she forget that there was still this way of saluting, in other words, Ling Feng knelt like this, don't you hurt?
"Get up, don't do this kind of salute in the future, I'm not used to it. Sandflies are doing well, they all feel fat. Tan Shuxu doesn't look at the black line of one person and one horse.
"Are you all right?" Tan Shuxu asked, reaching out and touching the sandfly's horse's head. The sandfly rubbed her hand affectionately.
Ling Feng was no surprise in this situation. "Yes, the wounds of the subordinates have healed."
"That's good, I have prepared some dry food for you, you will go down the mountain tonight, and take the sandfly with you to the city where Brother Yuheng and they went to do the goods to help me find some things, as for your appearance, I think you should know how to do it, right?" Tan Shuxu said.
"I don't know what the master wants his subordinates to do?" Ling Feng asked responsibly.
"Bring me a map, a map of the current empire, of course, by the way, inquire where the Dragon Kingdom is fighting, who is leading the troops to resist the army of the Dragon Kingdom Anyway, you can ask as much as you can, this is the route to go, you can see for yourself, and the silver taels, be sure to bring back the map." Of course, the road is also very dangerous, remember to protect yourself, it is best not to let people chase you to Yawa Village. Tan Shuxu said.
"I don't know what the master wants the map to do? Maps aren't easy to get right now, and no one should be selling them. "So it's useless for you to give me money, master. Ling Feng said this silently in his heart. "You don't have to ask, you'll know when you come back, it's best if you can bring back the map safely, otherwise you just dig a pit and bury yourself." Tan Shuxu said this as if he was saying that tonight was a very good night, and it was suitable for doing something bad.
Ling Feng and Sandfly have been walking for three days and three nights, although there is a rest on the way, but in order to complete the first task assigned by Tan Shuxu as soon as possible, Ling Feng rarely rests, so it is quite tiring to reach the city in front of him. Fortunately, he was the number one on the battlefield, and Ling Feng just felt that he should rest first and act well tonight.
Ling Feng stopped in place for a moment when he looked at the banner on the Desert City, it turned out to be the banner of the Dragon Kingdom! I didn't expect the speed of the Dragon Kingdom to be so fast, Ling Feng watched as the soldiers guarding the city were replaced by the soldiers of the Dragon Kingdom, and they were interrogating and checking one by one, Ling Feng thought about Tan Shuxu's instructions, and still pulled the sandfly over. "Stop, need to check, please dismount." A soldier stopped the man with a full face in front of him, and looked at the energetic white mixed with the gray horse, thinking that this horse seemed to be a good horse.
Sandfly: A discerning boy. Ling Feng dismounted and let him search his whole body, anyway, now he only has silver taels, watching the soldiers open his money bag, Ling Feng thought that the silver taels given by Tan Shuxu were afraid that they would give it to people like this. Ling Feng still knows this kind of trick.
"Please take it, strong man, your horse looks good, I don't know if you want to sell it?" The soldier returned the money bag to Ling Feng without missing a penny.
Ling Feng didn't expect that all the money was actually given to him, but this was probably the difference between the Dragon Kingdom, otherwise how could the people take the initiative to open the city gate to greet him. But don't think about it, my sandfly. "No, I've been following me for a long time, and I can't bear it."
"Oh, sorry, I was abrupt, I just thought the horse looked good, okay, you can go over." The soldier smiled apologetically.
Ling Feng led the sandfly into the city, watching the people sell things and buy things, but there were not necessarily traces of war, but they were all harmonious and happy, Ling Feng felt that maybe the Dragon Kingdom could indeed give the people a more stable life, and had to sigh the difference between the two empires.
Ling Feng led the sandfly to find an inn, ordered a few dishes, and ordered the sandfly to be given some good grass, and when he sat down, he happened to hear the people at the next table discussing the affairs of the dragon kingdom. I pretended to pour tea and listened carefully.
"As soon as this dragon country occupied our desert city, it didn't rob anything, and appeased the people, so that the people could do whatever they wanted, and those soldiers would also give money to buy things, which is really good. It's like the previous empire either raised taxes or recruited beautiful women, huh. ”
"That's right, now our life is much better than before, I knew that it was better to let the Dragon Kingdom occupy our Mocheng first."
"You say it's occupied, but I heard that we want to rest in our Mocheng for a while, it seems that we are waiting for someone."
"I think it's a very honorable person."
"Nonsense."
・・・・・・
Ling Feng sorted out some useful information, it happened that the meal came, Ling Feng asked for a room after eating, and went to rest, only a good spirit went to explore the wind tonight to check the terrain or something, there was no pressure. Ling Feng went to rest with peace of mind.
It's night.
Ling Feng was dressed in black, stealing. Cover your face, and you can't see anyone.
Ling Feng cleverly and thrillingly dodged the patrol on the road, jumped on the roof on tiptoe, quickly walked through the streets and alleys, and finally came to the Yamen, but now the Yamen is still the temporary garrison of the Dragon Kingdom, looking at the tightly guarded Yamen, Ling Feng didn't know where to go for a while, Ling Feng ran to the backyard of the Yamen, sure enough, although there were patrols here, there were not as many as in front, Ling Feng just wanted to run over, but he didn't expect a team of patrols to pass by, Ling Feng quickly hid back in the dark, After the next group of people walked by, Ling Feng quickly used light skills to climb over the wall, and did not make any sound when he landed, Ling Feng hid in the dark to observe that no one left, to find the hiding place of the map.
Avoiding the patrol and the little maidservant all the way, Ling Feng finally found the hiding place of the map, but there were actually people inside, Ling Feng thought about it, looked around to see that there was no one, and after getting on the wooden beam to ensure that it was not easy to be found, he poked open the paper window and saw that the people inside were discussing things, and the table happened to be his target this time, the map. Ling Feng said that he really didn't mean to peek. It wasn't intentional to eavesdrop, anyway, he said that he was eavesdropping and eavesdropping.
"Now we are here, and then it will be Yucheng, but now they should send a lot of people to guard here, if they fight hard, they are only afraid that they will cost the people and money, so it is best to outwit it, you see this path leads to Licheng, if we can capture Licheng first, and come to a two-sided attack, we will have a better chance of winning this war."
"But Li Cheng is easy to attack and difficult to defend here, so I'm afraid that we will be attacked from both sides."
"You see, the terrain of Yucheng is low, next to the Yan River, the river is turbulent, if you can let the water rush into Yucheng, then they will be in chaos, at this time we will send elite archers, set up an ambush here, and when the time comes, they will be wiped out."
"Flooding Yucheng with the Yan River should not threaten the safety of the people, as for the supplies to be given when the time comes, I believe the people should not be too disgusted, and we should also pay attention to the details, so as not to make ・・・・・・mistakes when the time comes."
Ling Feng saw that it was not too late, and the chance of being discovered was greater if he stayed, so Ling Feng decided to come back tomorrow night and get the map back when the time came. Ling Feng walked back the way he came, much faster than when he came. When Ling Feng returned to the inn, he changed his clothes and hid them.
Looking at the stolen clothes, Ling Feng really didn't think that he would have to steal a map that he usually held all the time, it was really a different situation. The night is still dark, and how many people are still calculating, worrying, or missing under the green light at this time. Night. There are always too many things hidden, people seem to be revealed as soon as the morning dawns, yes, they are always busy with their own things when the night comes, they take off their disguises, and when the night slips away, they put on their masks and put themselves in their clothes.
How beautiful the night is.
