Chapter 53: A Clear Choice

Of course, maybe King Ning can actually know that there are such people among his soldiers, but he doesn't think it will affect it too much, in fact, he is really too arrogant, and he believes too much in the people gathered in such a short time, so he needs to bear such a failure.

Now King Ning and they began to retreat westward, in fact, the main purpose was to return to Changnan City, after all, they were also going to return to Changnan, but the way back was blocked by the governor, so they could only take a detour, and felt that they could still hold on for a while after going back, and they would not be defeated like this.

This kind of thinking is actually understandable, and whoever is struggling at such a time, even if the final result is the same, but it will not give up easily, of course, it can also be said to be a dying struggle.

The reason why Lin Yu thought of King Ning's final purpose was actually a coincidence, it can also be said that he didn't have such an idea, just thinking of a way to go back, so he said such a thing to the governor, maybe this is also the best chance to go back, otherwise he can't think of any other way, it can't be said that there is no reason!

This reason for Lin Yu can be said to be very successful, not only can he go back according to the meaning of the mission, but also he can be promoted to the prefect, even if it is temporary, and then he can still have a chance to defend Changnan, it can be said that it is really a multi-kill, which Lin Yu did not expect at the beginning.

At present, there is such a coincidence, which is also gratifying, Lin Yu is also happy, maybe this time is really a hammer, even if he does not work by the side of the governor, he can continue to make meritorious contributions.

In this way, Lin Yu led his troops back to Changnan City after a few days, which can be said to be very satisfied, and when he entered the city, he also looked arrogant, feeling that this was also really face-saving.

It's just that his father Lin Xu didn't see such an opportunity, but he didn't know if the other party had returned to Changnan, and there was no further news so far, Lin Yu was also very helpless about this, and he could only wait slowly.

After all, if the other party is no longer in Changnan City, he really doesn't know how to find it, the place outside is so vast, he doesn't know where Lin Xu can go, he can't post notices everywhere, it is really difficult to operate, even if he can take his time, but at present, Lin Yu still doesn't have this time, he needs to continue to cooperate with the governor to deal with the rebels.

And now that he has come to such a position, he can't give up casually, this is not only his own business, but also a major event in the entire Changnan City, if Changnan City is occupied by King Ning again, then it will be really difficult to deal with this matter next, it will really add a big trouble.

Lin Yu also didn't want such a thing to happen, not only to bring trouble to the people in the city, but also to increase the burden on the governor, and he would also have some guilt, so he couldn't let this happen.

In order to prevent the previous breaking of the city from appearing again, Lin Yu also told the people guarding the city gate to pay attention to safety and not give the other party any chance, otherwise once the city is broken, if you want to take it back, you will need to pay more costs, so try to avoid such a thing.

This time, Lin Yu himself will also pay special attention, not only in the city, but also at various intersections outside the city to keep an eye on it, to see if there is a shadow of the rebels, and whether they are really heading in this direction, so that they can make this preparation in advance.

Now Lin Yu is also serving as the temporary prefect, it can be said that he is really very satisfied, after all, he didn't have such an opportunity before, and it is a little uncomfortable to suddenly have such a position, but fortunately, he is just guarding Changnan City, otherwise he really doesn't know what to do if he really deals with other things!

"Childe, what do you think of what it's like to be the prefect now? Does it look like it's fluttering? Xiao Wu also asked curiously.

"It feels a little bit, after all, the prefect is not a low position, and suddenly it becomes like this, it must be a little unaccustomed, but it will always get used to it slowly, and at present, it is mainly to defend the city, and other things will not be too concerned, and it is also a little easier, after all, it is temporary." Lin Yu also narrated.

I still have such feelings for such a position, I just hope that this time I can live up to the trust of the governor, I can resist King Ning's rebels, and prevent them from entering the city, of course, it would be better if I could take down the other party in one fell swoop, but this is also a little unreliable.

Even if King Ning lost a lot of money after this battle this time, but after all, the base is still large, and the army of 60,000 people, even if it loses half, there are still 30,000, which is not something that Lin Yu and these thousands of people can defeat in one fell swoop.

However, it is still okay to hold on to the city for a few days and not let the other party enter the city, but Changnan City is King Ning's lair after all, and he must be more familiar with this place, so this will not necessarily last too long, so it is also necessary to cooperate with the governor to defeat the rebels.

Xiao Wu's feelings for Lin Yu are also understandable, after all, he has never held such a position before, and sudden changes will make people unable to adapt, but people's learning ability is still okay, once they come into contact with something, they can still adapt slowly.

The two of them also felt that Lin Yu had such ability, and there was no problem in leading these soldiers, and he would command well and guard Changnan City.

At this time, the governor was also continuing to pursue the rebels, and although there was a certain distance from the other party, he did not disappear from sight, and he could still know the other party's movements.

After two days of retreating to the west, King Ning also began to move south, which made the governor know the news, and he could also guess the other party's purpose, and it was very likely that he would meet Changnan, otherwise he would not have made such a move.

This also made him feel that Lin Yu's considerations before were still more reliable, and fortunately he asked Lin Yu to lead his troops back to guard Changnan at that time, otherwise it would definitely be a little late to go back now, after all, the other party was in front.

This kind of advance preparation allows the governor to feel at ease, don't worry too much about this problem, just continue the pursuit, regardless of whether the other party goes to Changnan or not, there is also such an advance defense, in this way, the rebels are basically nowhere to go, defeat is inevitable, and the next thing is to deal with the other party directly, I hope that the other party will not die and break the net, otherwise it will only bring more trouble.
