Chapter 462: What He Wants
Lin Yaoyue knew that the Zhennan general in front of her didn't have a good impression of her, if they could vote for the princess of Murong Jin, who was the ideal in their hearts, it would be Ji Yuehua instead of her.
But even so, she won't back down. Land and men, she will not back down a single step.
Seeing Lin Yaoyue's searching gaze towards the man in the general's clothes, he smiled. The bright but resolute eyes are scorching.
"What's the general's name?" Lin Yaoyue's phoenix eyes tilted slightly, looking at the man in the general's costume beside her.
"The humble name is Wu Zheng, and the generalissimo of Zhennan is a lieutenant from the fourth grade. β
It turned out to be Murong Jin's third-in-command who left Zhennan, Lin Yaoyue knew it in her heart, but her face was still a calm gesture. At the same time, he took out the token that Murong Jin had handed her hand before, "Since the marshal has sent a message and ordered us to hold Guanggu City together for three days, we must not let the marshal down, let alone delay the military aircraft." β
Lin Yaoyue's clear but resolute voice made people dare not underestimate her from the bottom of their hearts for a while. But when the soldiers thought that she was just a woman who didn't know anything, they were very unconvinced.
Especially at such a critical time, why did Marshal Jin hand over the token to the woman in front of him, according to them, let Wu Duwei take over, they can still be convinced. Thinking about it, this must be because the demon girl in front of her has cast some demon spell on the marshal.
Lin Yaoyue swept past the soldiers present and looked at her with an angry expression, and knew it in her heart. And Xian Xiang and Yi'er couldn't help but look at Lin Yaoyue with some worry at the moment, and they didn't know what Lord Jin was doing.
Even if he doesn't remember his own young lady, there is no reason to deliberately send her to death.
But seeing Lin Yaoyue's cold ink-colored phoenix eyes on the city tower, she squinted slightly, and then she soared into the air, and flew up to grab a man with a cyan beard and a scar on his face in the crowd.
In an instant, the people and soldiers present gave up a vacant land. The man lowered his eyes at this time, as if he was deliberately dodging something.
At this moment, Xiangxiang's brows frowned, and he only felt that the appearance of this man who was pulled out by his own young lady was very familiar, "Isn't he the mountain bandit who robbed the road?"
Hearing this, he saw Lin Yaoyue, who was condescendingly looking at the man lying on the ground at this time, and pursed the corners of his lips and smiled.
And when they heard that it was the mountain bandits who robbed the road, the people in Guanggu City suddenly wanted to hang the man in front of them to show the public.
For a time, the crowd was furious. But Lin Yaoyue waved her hand and said to Guo Yitong who was standing next to her, "Take him down and take good care of him." β
"Yes"
Hearing this, Guo Yitong grabbed the man in front of him and led him into the hut on the side.
Then Lin Yaoyue signaled to Wu Zheng, and the two walked under the willow tree on the side. Hearing this, Lin Yaoyue said to Wu Zheng in a deep voice at this time, "The people in Guanggu City, as well as the dozen or so women I brought, I hope that the general will send troops to properly arrange to go out of the city to the north first." If Yaoyue is not wrong, the first stop of Li Yaoke's army, the princess in charge of Fanyun Kingdom, is our Guanggu City, right?"
Hearing this, Wu Zheng really never thought that Lin Yaoyue should have been the pawn who was used as an abandoned son by their family Jin Wangye, why did he really calmly command the battle?
Although he was unhappy for the noble daughter of the Ji family in his heart, he knew that if the Jin prince left himself here, it was impossible to see the eldest daughter of this hostile Zhenguo general die in their southern Xinjiang. But he never thought that the first reaction of this woman, who made him look down on him at first, was to withdraw the defenders here and protect the people out of the city first?
Although Wu Zheng admired Lin Yaoyue in his heart, as the daughter of a powerful person, he could put the people first so much, but he couldn't help but have a touch of ridicule on his face, "Miss Lin, at this time, you still have to divide the defenders of Guanggu City to protect these dozens of people?"
Fighting a war is not playing at home, and Miss Lin's idea is a little too naΓ―ve and ridiculous. Do you know how many troops are left behind in Guanggu City now, and how many forwards Li Yaoke, the ruling princess of Fanyun Kingdom, has?"
Looking at Wu Zheng's somewhat excited expression at this time, Lin Yaoyue just said lightly, "There are 2,000 defenders in Guanggu City, and Li Yaoke, the princess in charge of Fanyun Kingdom, has 20,000 pioneers in the north this time. β
Hearing Lin Yaoyue's bland response, Wu Zheng couldn't help but whisper to Lin Yaoyue, "Therefore, it is already an impossible task to garrison for three days with such a force, Miss Lin, you still want to divide your forces to send away the old and weak women and children left in Guanggu City, this is simply a self-defeating move!"
After Wu Zheng finished roaring loudly, he found that Lin Yaoyue's beautiful little face was still calm without a trace of waves. Only then did he remember that although Murong Jin had the intention of letting him supervise, but in fact, he handed over the token to Lin Yaoyue's hands, he finally paused, and said with some embarrassment, "Wu was emotional at some point, and where the wording was inappropriate, I hope that Miss Lin will be lenient." β
Hearing Wu Zheng's half-unconvinced apology, Lin Yaoyue's clear inky phoenix eyes raised slightly, and her gaze was opposite to Wu Zheng. Suddenly, what Wu Zheng saw in Lin Yaoyue's eyes was not an innocent and ridiculous powerful lady, but a female general who was decisive in killing.
Immediately after that, I heard her clear and beautiful voice and said calmly, "Since there is already a huge disparity in strength, what can you do if you send a team of twenty people to escort these people to the north first? General Wu, the military order is in hand, please do what the little girl said." β
After speaking, Lin Yaoyue glanced at Guo Yitong on the side, and saw him nodding, and then she walked towards the hut where the robber mountain bandit was captured.
Wu Zheng, who was shocked by the momentum between Lin Yaoyue's eyes for a while, was extremely puzzled in his heart. was waiting to see Lin Yaoyue was so frightened by the Fanyun striker who was about to come to the city that she lost her armor, and the situation of losing her face did not come. On the contrary, he was a little puzzled by what the eldest daughter of the general of Zhenguo was going to do, and what was the purpose of her actions?
"Wait!" Wu Zheng stopped Lin Yaoyue before she entered the house. "This secret letter was given to you by the prince. β
Seeing this, Lin Yaoyue took the secret letter and raised her eyebrows lightly, and when she opened the secret letter, she saw a short sentence on it. For a while, Lin Yaoyue seemed to see a very shallow smile on Murong Jin's somewhat tired handsome face, "Lin Yaoyue, don't let Ben Shuai down." β
Immediately, the familiar magnetic and cold voice disappeared in Lin Yaoyue's eyes as if fireworks were passing through the air.
It seems that he wants a woman worthy of him.
Lin Yaoyue hooked her lips and smiled, lifted the curtain and stepped into the hut where the mountain bandit leader was imprisoned.
I saw that the leader of the mountain bandits stared at the steaming sheep and scorpion in front of him with some eyes, but he did not take a step forward.
"What, are you afraid of being poisonous?"
Lin Yaoyue smiled lightly. Of course she wouldn't hurt him. Because she still has a place to use him.
Distinguishing between interests and disadvantages and trying to attract useful people is a universal rule of struggle. What's more, what is now in front of them is a battle of one to ten.
I saw Lin Yaoyue take the hot handkerchief handed by Xiangxiang on the side and wiped her hands. He picked up a piece of it with his hand and ate it very boldly, until a third of the large pot of sheep and scorpions was eaten by her alone, and the leader of the mountain bandits couldn't help but cover his stomach and reached out to take a piece from the basin.
At this time, Lin Yaoyue chewed carefully and swallowed slowly. She looked carefully at the man sitting across from her for a long time, but did not open her mouth to speak. Instead, he looked at his mouth full of oil, took the time to look up at himself, lowered his head and pulled it into his mouth like a dog grabbing food, hooked his lips and smiled.
"Captain Jiang's appearance of eating makes people feel very happy. β
Listening to Lin Yaoyue's leisurely smiling tone, Jiang Chen choked on the mutton in his mouth and paused, although they always ate the most things in the least amount of time when they were soldiers, and they never chewed. But the woman's act of recognizing his identity at once still made the food in his mouth choke in his throat.
Seeing that Jiang Chen seemed to be choking on his throat, Lin Yaoyue handed over the tea that had already been put aside. "Well, if Captain Jiang doesn't mind, the little girl wants to hear why you defected from the command of General Muqiang, the Marquis of Zhongyong. β
Hearing this, Jiang Chen's brows frowned, he looked at Lin Yaoyue's calmly smiling eyes, and he didn't know what to say for a while. But he knew that he couldn't hide from her, and the woman sitting in front of her at the moment seemed to be gentle and elegant, but after digging deep into her beautiful face, he could find that there was a piercing edge hidden between her eyebrows and eyes, which should not be underestimated.
"General Mu is no longer the General Mu of the past. Jiang Chen held the teacup handed over by Lin Yaoyue and sighed secretly.
"What do you mean by that?"
"I saw with my own eyes that a man wearing a black cloak put an imperial scorpion more than a foot long into General Mu's mouth, and then took off a layer of shell from General Mu's body. β
"The imperial scorpion that is more than a foot long, and there is still a shell?" Hearing this, Lin Yaoyue's green eyebrows frowned slightly, and the captain named Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders a little self-defeatingly,
"Sure enough, you think I'm crazy. β
Just now, in Lin Yaoyue's scrutiny, I found that the man in front of him had a lot of bad problems, such as gambling addiction, greed for beauty, great joy, boldness, etc., but I didn't find that he was a person who was good at lying and often lied.
"I believe you, but you must keep this matter a secret first. I don't want to cause any gossip to General Mu before the matter is cleared up, do you understand?"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen was a little surprised. Because since Murong Jin, the regent of the generalissimo of Zhennan, returned to Shangjing a year ago, southern Xinjiang is under the control of the Mu family. Even though General Mu was later transferred to the eastern border to guard, no one believed what he said, and even began to exclude him for this. In the midst of the daily ridicule and growing fear of others, he led his brothers to mutiny and defected to become bandits in the area.
"But since you're here, you can't eat rice. Lin Yaoyue smiled, her eyes pointing to the few sheep scorpions left in the pot.
