Chapter 114: Internal and External Troubles
"We're going to attack Maple Leaf City at dawn tomorrow, it's going to be very dangerous for you to stay in the army, so let's leave before the big battle!" Ling Feng looked at the girl's elf-like flickering eyes, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Looks like you still care about me!" the girl smiled mischievously, and the corners of her mouth suddenly revealed two cute dimples, "You can rest assured." I am already an innate martial artist now, and with Xiaohua, a third-order divine beast comparable to a small innate peak martial artist, protecting me, I will definitely not have an accident. Speaking of this, the girl smiled mysteriously, took two steps closer, and said, "Moreover, I came this time, but I got the permission of my father's nod!"
This girl wearing a suit of armor and disguised as a man is Xue Xiaoxiao, Xue Hongze's favorite little princess. At this moment, she is set off by a shining silver armor, and she looks very heroic and sassy when she is originally elf-like, and she has a unique taste.
But now Ling Feng was in no mood to appreciate her current outfit.
"The Holy Lord actually agreed!" Ling Feng's mouth opened wide in surprise, a little incredulous, Xue Hongze was willing to let his favorite little princess come to this battlefield full of crises!
However, Ling Feng didn't know that Xue Xiaoxiao could come this time, and it was only under the soft grinding and hard bubbles that Xue Hongze reluctantly nodded and agreed.
"Hehe, it's very unexpected, right?" Xue Xiaoxiao raised her head slightly, revealing her snow-white slender neck, looking at Ling Feng like a proud white swan, "Don't think that you men know how to fight! Tomorrow I will let you know what it is to be a woman who does not let her eyebrows go!"
Ling Feng pursed his lips speechlessly. Since Xue Hongze is relieved to let Xue Xiaoxiao come, what else do she have to worry about? And with the protection of the Six-Colored Blood-Eyed Lion, nothing should happen to her. I just don't know why she risked her to come to this battlefield? Could it be that she came for herself?
Thinking of this, Ling Feng couldn't help but shake his head and smile faintly. The princess risked her own sake, and did she really have that much charm? It seems unlikely......
While Ling Feng and Xue Xiao were talking, a sound of footsteps sounded from far and near outside the tent.
Ling Feng hurriedly glanced at Xue Xiaoxiao and motioned for Xue Xiaoxiao to put on a helmet so as not to reveal her identity. And after Xue Xiaoxiao hurriedly put on her helmet, a loud voice came from outside the tent:
"Second Young Master!"
"Come in!" Ling Feng looked at the door of the big tent.
I saw a handsome-looking young man walk in, he was the captain of the "Fengrui" team, Ling Fei.
Ling Fei bowed and said, "Second Young Master, just now Commander Zuo's personal soldiers came over and said that they invited you to discuss the siege plan of Ming Yu. ”
"Well, I know, I'll go over right away, you go down first!" Ling Feng waved his hand.
"Yes!" Ling Fei replied, turned and walked out.
......
In the commander's tent, the lights were bright, and there were only Zuo Yu and Ling Feng in the tent.
"Then it's decided, tomorrow I will give an order, and you will take your Ling family's men and horses to attack the far left end of the city wall!" Zuo Yu said in a deep voice.
"Okay!" Ling Feng nodded in agreement. I have to say that although Zuo Yu's strength is not as good as his own, he has very rich experience in marching and fighting and commanding the three armies, and he is obviously much stronger than himself.
After going through all of Zuo Yu's arrangements from his mind again, and after confirming that they were correct, Ling Feng spoke: "If there is nothing else, then I will go back and prepare first!"
"Wait a minute!" Zuo Yu leaned closer to Ling Feng and said in a low voice, "I'll let you come this time, in addition to arranging the siege of the city, there is one more thing to tell you!"
"What's the matter?" Seeing Zuo Yu's heavy face, Ling Feng couldn't help frowning slightly.
"I have subordinates who saw the leaders of the Yang and Liu families under the eldest prince and the Han and Xu families under the second prince quietly gathered together, as if they were plotting something. Zuo Yu said in a deep voice, "I suspect that they want to be unfavorable to your Ling family, you must be more careful!"
Ling Feng's eyes rolled. The eldest prince and the second prince have always been at odds because of the throne, and their subordinates naturally have gaps with each other, and it seems that it is indeed abnormal to be able to get together this time.
"Could it be that because of my appearance, they are temporarily on the same front?" Ling Feng flashed a trace of doubt in his heart, nodded cautiously, and quickly left the commander's tent.
After returning to his camp, Ling Feng looked worried.
Although the Yang and Liu families only brought 400 people this time, the Han and Xu families brought a full 1,000 people! And the strength of these people was not weak! If these 1,400 people joined forces to attack the Ling family, although the strength of the "Fengrui" squad was extremely strong, there were only 100 people!
1,400 people against 100 people, if they are besieged by the opponent's people, there is no doubt that the "Fengrui" team will definitely be wiped out!
"It seems that we have to ensure that 'Fengrui' has always been with the major families, and we must not let them break away from the main army, so as to avoid separate contact with the eldest prince and the second prince!" Ling Feng believed that no matter how arrogant the other party was, he was not bold enough to act against the Ling family while other families were present.
......
On the city wall north of Maple Leaf City, several groups of soldiers patrolled back and forth, the torches in their hands were burning with sneer, and the fiery red flames lit up the entire city wall, almost illuminating the sky in the night.
"Everyone cheer up, be careful of the enemy sneaking up on Maple Leaf City in the dark!" Wang Qiang stood on the ten-zhang high city wall, glanced at the dark distance, and commanded the soldiers beside him.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
After Wang Qiang's reminder, all the soldiers who were already a little sleepy couldn't help but straighten their waists, their eyes widened one by one, and they were carefully alert to the movements under the city wall.
"The army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty should be about to attack the city, I don't know how Brother Pan's preparations are. Thinking that an army of 8,000 elite soldiers would come to attack the city, Wang Qiang's face couldn't help but show excitement.
Although there were only a thousand men and horses, Maple Leaf City was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Wang Qiang believed that he would be able to block several attacks by the Eastern Jin Dynasty army.
"As long as you buy enough time, once Brother Pan's side succeeds, even if their Eastern Jin Dynasty's army breaks through Maple Leaf City, it will be useless!" Wang Qiang showed a smile on his face, "When the time comes, without the barrier of Maple Leaf City, our Dali Dynasty General will drive straight into Longyuan City, the imperial city of the Eastern Jin Dynasty!"
Thinking of this, the smile on Wang Qiang's face became a little stronger, and a figure that made him angry flashed in his mind: "Ling Feng, if you are lucky enough not to die on the battlefield tomorrow, then we will see you next time in Longyuan City!" I hope you don't disappoint me, give me a chance to kill you with my own hands, and avenge the people who died in your Ling family!"
