Chapter 45: The Bandits Are Coming
Prince Yibu, seeing that Lin Yu was under the pressure of everyone's expectation, was about to agree to help them contribute for free, but he didn't expect that the little girl below would lead the matter to the other side in a few words, which caught him off guard.
"What should I do, what should I do?" the prince's hands behind his back were trembling, and he thought to himself, "The situation in front of me, he didn't tell me how to deal with it, and he didn't dare to promise anything easily." ”
For a while, the ministers all looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with expectant eyes, and this time all the pressure of these people's expectations was transferred to Ibu.
Lin Yu glanced at Feng Jasmine with some appreciation, he knew that it must be her going to give Feng Xiaojin instructions to have such a remark.
Feng Jasmine just stood calmly, of course, facing Lin Yu's praising gaze, although her face was expressionless and cold, she was still very proud in her heart.
Lin Yu looked at Feng Jasmine, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, but Feng Xiaojin next to him also kept looking at Lin Yu with expectant eyes, as if to say, "Praise me, praise me!"
Lin Yu had no choice but to look at her with a smile, and Feng Xiaojin immediately winked at him, indicating that he had received it.
"It seems that there is no other way than to promise him a reward!" Prince Ibu knew that he had fallen into a dilemma at this time, and if he did not agree, I am afraid that it would make all the soldiers and ministers chill in the future.
But if he agreed to give Lin Yu a reward, Prince Yibu was unwilling.
"Forget it, let's agree first, and then I'll ask him what to do!" thought to Prince Eevee, and was about to speak.
But at this moment, there was a sudden rush of bells outside!
"It's the bell of war readiness, and there is an emergency!" Prime Minister Du Wei exclaimed at this time.
"Report-" A guard instantly rushed to the top of the court and said loudly to the top prince Ibu, "Report to the prince, the bandits have begun to attack the city from the east gate!"
"What, arrogance!" said the crown prince Ibu angrily, "The little bandit, who usually doesn't look at it at all, dares to organize a siege today, it's simply bold!"
"Quickly declare Prince Shawen, let him send troops to meet the enemy!" the crown prince Ibu ordered.
"Report to the prince, Prince Chavin has gone to sea yesterday, have you forgotten?" one of the generals below reminded at this time.
The crown prince Yibu covered his forehead, today's court meeting was originally presided over by the imperial sister, and whenever the imperial sister presided over the court meeting, the general Prince Shawen would find an excuse to go out and avoid the imperial sister, so he stopped Donghai County a few days ago and was transferred out.
Prince Ibu never thought that these bandits would take advantage of this time to attack the city!
"This ...... What can I do about this?" Prince Yibu was really panicked this time, after all, the generals on the field today were just shrimp soldiers and crab generals, where could he lead the army, and if he went to lead the troops himself, I am afraid that he would not be able to convince the public.
"By the way, go find the imperial sister, she must have a way!" Prince Eevee instantly thought of a solution, that is, to find Lilith, as long as she came forward, all problems would be solved.
My sister is so powerful.
With his thoughts, he couldn't sit still anymore and wanted to go out, but at this time, his personal guard beast grabbed him and reminded him: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can't go to the eldest princess, otherwise, Your Majesty will scold you, forget what Your Majesty said to you last night?"
"But what should I do?" asked Prince Eevee.
"This ......," said the little beast, shaking his head, "the minion doesn't know. ”
The more Prince Yibu thought about it, the bigger his head became, he didn't expect so many things to happen at today's court meeting.
"Knock knock—" The bells outside the city became more and more urgent, and it seemed that the city gate had begun to line up to meet it.
Prime Minister Du Wei, seeing that the prince had not made a decision for a long time, he knew that this younger brother must be useless, so he said directly to the prince: "Prince, take the generals to the city gate first to see the situation!"
"Yes, that's right to the teacher!" Prince Yibu thanked Du Wei, and then said to the generals, "Generals, please follow me to the east gate, as for the ministers, please do a good job of logistics!"
"Order!"
"Command!"
The civil and military officials below began to echo.
Prince Yibu knew that the military situation was urgent, so he started to walk directly to the east gate, but when he left, he glanced at Lin Yu, looking a little responsible, as if he hoped that Lin Yu could go to the east gate with him.
After all, Lin Yu's reputation is outside, and if he is there, he should not lose today's sudden battle.
Du Wei, who was a handful of people, also knew that the situation was urgent, so he was not hypocritical at all, and saluted Lin Yu directly: "Please also ask Mr. Lin Yu to go to the east gate together, and please help if necessary!"
Lin Yu knew that Feng Jasmine had helped him think of a way to take the crown prince's army above the court, but of course he couldn't easily agree now.
After all, it is rare for him to occupy the initiative, and if he agrees again, he will not fall into the prince's full set.
He was about to say a few polite words and then refuse, but unexpectedly, at this time, Feng Jasmine said: "Of course there is no problem, we will go to the east gate with you soon and help the friendly army at any time!"
"Huh?" Lin Yu looked at Feng Jasmine with a puzzled expression, not knowing what the hell was going on with his fiancée, who was so beautiful that she didn't talk like her.
Including Du Wei was also stunned for a moment, he thought that things were not so simple, and he was already thinking in his heart about what price he would come up with to invite Lin Yu to fight, but he didn't expect that Lin Yu took the initiative to agree at this time!
Feng Jasmine didn't explain at the first time, just grabbed Lin Yu's arm, then held Feng Xiaojin's hand with one hand, and then said, "Time is urgent, let's go together!"
"Yes, yes!" Du Wei saw that Feng Jasmine agreed so easily, of course, he couldn't say anything, so he immediately led the way.
There are a total of four gates in Donghae-gun, which is a standard four-sided castle, the west side is divided into two gates because it is close to the sea, so it is divided into two places, the inner gate and the outer gate, and the east side is directly against the plain, so there is only one city gate.
Outside the eastern city of Donghai County, there is an open plain, which is very suitable for white open posture combat, but the strength of Donghai County is limited, so it is easy not to open the city gate to face the battle, and now the suspension bridge of the moat has been raised, and it is completely defensive.
As soon as Lin Yu went up to the East City Gate, he found that the bandits outside were running around the moat with great power. Because there is an open field outside the city, and these bandits are all cavalry, they run particularly presumptuously.
