Chapter 674: Dinner

"The Ni Family Chamber of Commerce is willing to help the Ling family, and the strength of the Ling family has taken a fancy to it, after all, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the status of the Ling family will not be shaken in the windless city for the time being. Of course, what Brother Lin said is very right, you and I have to thank Ni Youbin. As the eldest son of the current head of the Ni family, Ni Youbin's words are indeed a great favor to the Ling family, "Recently, Ling Zimo and Ni Youbin have become friends, which actually has a lot to do with family affairs, and now when Ni Youbin is mentioned, Ling Zimo's tone is also full of gratitude."

"I said that Ling Zimo, it's not for Brother Lin's sake that my master is willing to help you, you should thank Brother Lin well," On one side is his master, and on the other side is Lin Xuanzhong, after seeing Ling Zimo elevate Ni Youbin like this, Tangbao still decisively chose to favor Lin Xuanzhong.

"Little brother's words are not right," Ling Zimo shook his head and explained with a smile: "The decline of the Ling family has a lot to do with Brother Lin, and Brother Lin has already worshiped the head of the family as a teacher, with this relationship, it is Brother Lin's duty to help the Ling family, why do you want me to be grateful to him, Brother Lin, you say yes?"

Catching up with Ling Zimo's smiling gaze, Lin Xuanzhong, who originally thought that what Tangbao said made some sense, recognized Ling Zimo's words in a blink of an eye. Although he was embarrassed to be told by Ling Zimo, Lin Xuanzhong still nodded to Ling Zimo seriously.

After getting Lin Xuanzhong's affirmation, Tangbao, who wanted to say something more, was suddenly speechless, and couldn't come up with any evidence that could refute Lin Xuanzhong.

"If the head of the family knew that Brother Lin had changed from an ordinary general to a first-class wolf general in just a few months, he would definitely be proud of Brother Lin," Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Ling Zimo, who would not bother with Sugar Treasure, took the initiative to break the awkward atmosphere.

"It's good that his old man is fine, my apprentice is wandering outside, it's a blessing that he doesn't need to worry about it, how can I expect to make his old man proud," Thinking of the Ling family master, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't help but touch the dustless sword on the table.

When the head of the Ling family gave the sword, he clearly said that he didn't want the dustless sword to be dusty, which is enough to see that the head of the Ling family wants Lin Xuanzhong to break out of the world. I don't know if the Ling family master's idea is right or wrong, but this consciousness of not letting the dustless sword be dusty has gradually put Lin Xuanzhong under some kind of pressure.

"What did Brother Lin say, if there is an apprentice like Brother Lin who still needs to worry about the head of the family, I am afraid that the entire Ling family is full of people who the head of the family needs to worry about, Brother Lin should be optimistic," Lin Xuanzhong's unprovoked melancholy tone surprised Ling Zimo, and Ling Zimo couldn't understand why Lin Xuanzhong spoke in such a tone.

"It's okay for the Ling family to be fine, and then we will try our best to fight the war with Fei and Yang," with a long breath, Lin Xuanzhong's attention returned to the battle in front of him. If the coalition forces are defeated this time, the situation in the Snow Country will definitely take a sharp turn for the worse, and both the Ling family and the Ni family chamber of commerce will be severely hit. Out of a desire to protect the stability of the Snow Country, Lin Xuanzhong became more and more aware of the importance of winning this war.

In this way, Brother Lin still has some confidence in winning this war. ”

"It's not about confidence, it's just going through ups and downs along the way, and I don't think the Night Army will lose here. "Speaking of confidence in defeating the coalition forces, Lin Xuanzhong has some, but he doesn't have any substantive credentials, so he can only explain to Ling Zimo like this.

Lin Xuanzhong's attitude changed too quickly, like the unpredictable weather, Ling Zimo couldn't understand what kind of opinion Lin Xuanzhong had about this war. Although he had not participated in several battles, the cruel image of the war had been deeply rooted in his heart, and Ling Zimo, who was still young, could not speculate on the trend of the next war on his own.

"There will be a solution to any difficulty, as long as you find the right way, everything is not a problem," I didn't know how to answer Lin Xuanzhong's words, so Ling Zimo directly said his own thoughts.

"You two don't patronize yourself and say, the princess has no one to accompany you here!" Seeing that Lin Xuanzhong and Ling Zimo kept talking, even when there was a pause, they couldn't speak, and Tang Bao couldn't understand what Lin Xuanzhong and Ling Zimo were talking about, so he had to fight for Princess Lan Xin.

It was at this time that Lin Xuanzhong noticed Princess Lan Xin. I haven't seen her for two days, and Princess Lan Xin hasn't changed much, but there are some problems with her eyes, and she seems to have some worries. I don't know if it has anything to do with me, and Lin Xuanzhong can't ask in front of others.

"Brother Lin, the marshal has already ordered someone to send me back as soon as possible, and I may have to leave the barracks in two days, so I came to see you today," meeting Lin Xuanzhong's gaze, Princess Lan Xin said what she wanted to say as if she had mustered up the courage.

"Where are you going back?" With Lin Xuanzhong's cleverness, it was naturally not difficult to think of Zhao Xu's intention to let Princess Lan Xin go back. The situation became worse as a result of two attacks by coalition forces. Although the night army has a great geographical advantage in occupying Fancheng, it is precisely because they want to defend Fancheng that they lose the opportunity to take the initiative to grasp the fighters. Even if Zhao Xu put forward the idea of the main battle at the beginning, the night army is still in a situation where there is nothing to be done.

The lack of large siege equipment on the coalition side indicates that they do not have the ability to break through Fancheng, so they still don't have to worry too much about the siege of the coalition army for the next period of time. However, it is precisely because of the stalemate that the above will think about making all the pre-war preparations, so it is naturally a problem for Princess Lan Xin to continue to stay in the military camp.

"Go back to Zephyr City," Princess Lan Xin replied with a heavy heart, and then her eyes stopped on Lin Xuanzhong's face, wanting to see how Lin Xuanzhong reacted.

It is completely understandable that Zhao Xu asked Princess Lanxin to return to Zephyr City, to say that only Zephyr City is the safest in the rear of the night army, and that is where Princess Lanxin should be.

"Inform me when you go back, I'll give you a ride," I don't know if it's because I always feel that Princess Lan Xin is a little annoying, usually when he is with Princess Lan Xin, Lin Xuanzhong only has the idea of avoiding it as soon as possible. Now that he suddenly heard Princess Lan Xin say that she was leaving, Lin Xuanzhong suddenly felt reluctant.

"Okay," Princess Lan Xin smiled softly, obviously pleased with Lin Xuanzhong's response.

"Brother Lin, Qingyi is here," while a few people were talking, Fang Qing's voice came from a distance in the courtyard outside, and Lin Xuanzhong, who was startled, hurriedly got up, as if he had done something wrong and was discovered. The next time, when Lin Xuanzhong realized that there was something wrong with his behavior, Fang Qing had already brought Qing Yi in from the door.

I don't know if it's because of the hurry, Qingyi is still wearing a military uniform, and in the dim light, that familiar face immediately dissipates all Lin Xuanzhong's nervousness.

"Qingyi, you're here," said a greeting, and Lin Xuanzhong walked towards the door.

"Qingfeng, long time no see," smiling at Lin Xuanzhong, Qing Yi walked into the house in three steps and two steps and looked at the people in the house at the same time, "The princess will be seen at the end." ”

On the way here, he had already heard Fang Qing say that Princess Lan Xin was here, and after confirming that Princess Lan Xin was really there, Qing Yi hurriedly bowed down and saluted Princess Lan Xin.

But Princess Lan Xin's attention was on Lin Xuanzhong, and the joy on Lin Xuanzhong's face at this moment was difficult to hide, which was usually difficult to see. Out of understanding the relationship between the two, it is not difficult for Princess Lan Xin to think about why Lin Xuanzhong is so happy.

"Please," looked at Qing Yi with some envy, and Princess Lan Xin remembered to let Qing Yi get up.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness Princess," after thanking Princess Lan Xin, Qing Yi's gaze naturally stopped on Ling Zimo.

"His name is Ling Zimo, and he is a friend of all of us, you don't have to be surprised," after briefly introducing Qing Yi, Lin Xuanzhong introduced Ling Zimo in turn, "His name is Qing Yi, he is my brother, Zimo, you don't have to see outside." ”

"You're all here?" While a few people were talking, Zhang Jiutian came in with two guards with food, and he was surprised when he saw so many people in front of him.

"Fang Qing and Bai Ye haven't arrived yet, it seems that Brother Zhang will have to work hard to run again!" Turning to Zhang Jiutian and smiling awkwardly, Lin Xuanzhong was indeed embarrassed to ask Zhang Jiutian to help again.

"The general doesn't have to be polite, it's Zhang's honor to serve you, leave the problem of food to me," After making a haha, Zhang Jiutian hurriedly asked the two guards to set up their things, and then saluted the people in the house one by one. After saying hello to everyone in the house, Zhang Jiu took people out again.

Hurry, until dark, ten people gathered around the table to eat. Vegetarian dishes make up the majority of the table, and the remaining few are a few plates of salted meat. Squeezed into a small table, ten people ate very happily. There was talk and laughter until the end of the meal, and no one felt anything unpleasant.

After eating, Zhang Jiutian called two guards to clean up the house, and then helped Lin Xuanzhong send Princess Lanxin away. In a blink of an eye, only Lin Xuanzhong and Qingyi were left in the room.

After not seeing each other for many days, both of them had a lot to say, as they talked about their recent situation. At the coalition battalion, the two commanders, who had already convened the generals during the day, held a high-level meeting in the evening. The two sieges ended in failure, and both sides' plans to weaken the Night Army ran into a powerful block.

Two days earlier, the result of the negotiations between the two sides was that each of them should have the upper hand or at least a draw in the battle against the night army, so as to ensure that the morale of the coalition forces would not be affected, but unfortunately it backfired, and the two sieges were almost completely defeated. After seeing the strength of the elite of the night army, the two marshals did not dare to act rashly after understanding the shortcomings of the coalition army in all aspects, so whether to continue the previous plan tomorrow is for them to discuss the content tonight.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Tie Xin and Shi Jiangchuan sat opposite each other, and to their left and right were the main generals of the coalition army, and on the long table in front of the group of personnel was a topographical map of the Wing Country, and the area marked on the map was where Fancheng and their camp were located.
