Chapter 119: Night Attack
After a discordant opening, the banquet held by Nanyang County Guard began smoothly.
It's just that there is only one person at the other tables, but Lin Ze's table has five people, and the consumption rate of wine and meat is obviously faster than that of other tables, and the maids who serve the food are in a hurry.
During this period, the Nanyang County Shou also secretly signaled to Lin Ze that he could add a few more tables in the hall, but Lin Ze politely declined.
The county guard did not insist, but only ordered two more After a discordant opening, the banquet held by the Nanyang county guard began smoothly.
It's just that there is only one person at the other tables, but Lin Ze's table has five people, and the consumption rate of wine and meat is obviously faster than that of other tables, and the maids who serve the food are in a hurry.
During this period, the Nanyang County Shou also secretly signaled to Lin Ze that he could add a few more tables in the hall, but Lin Ze politely declined.
The county guard didn't insist, but just ordered two more maids to be added to serve Lin Ze on the table.
Then the county guard called a team of singers to help the fun, but Lin Ze and the five of them gathered around a table, no matter how you look at it, it seems very unharmonious, well, it is not in accordance with the etiquette law.
If there was a serious Confucian here at this time, it is estimated that he would not be able to help but reprimand Lin Ze, fortunately, here are all officials of all sizes who have been in the officialdom for many years, although they are laughing at Lin Ze in their hearts, but their faces are silent, and they even toast Lin Ze from time to time.
Lin Ze is not a fool, he sees everyone's strange eyes, but he doesn't care in his heart, and he has an extra piece of meat.
Eating and eating the breeze, he suddenly praised: "The young sect master is really a good seedling who cultivates our immortal path, he is unrestrained and acts naturally." β
Lin Ze rolled his eyes: With a thick skin, it is easy to cultivate.
At this time, an official next to Lin Ze walked up to Lin Ze with a wine bottle, saluted and said: "Xia Li, the lieutenant of Nanyang County, has seen the national teacher's high feet, just now my county lieutenant does not know Your Excellency's identity, and he has offended a lot, and the lower official is here to make amends to Your Excellency." After speaking, he picked up the wine bottle and drank it all.
Lin Ze's face was a little weird, the county lieutenant belonged to the county lieutenant's subordinate officer, and he was the assistant in charge of the military as the county lieutenant, this county lieutenant didn't come over to make amends, but it seemed to be here to remind Lin Ze.
As the second-in-command, I deliberately emphasized the mistakes of my superiors to Lin Ze, and I borrowed a knife to kill people and played quite slippery, is it really that Lin Ze is a child and is so fooled?
Lin Ze remained silent, nodded casually, and took a drink.
However, this county lieutenant Cheng Xiali couldn't help but be happy when he saw Lin Ze's unsmiling and thoughtful look, it seemed that this noble man was really angry, and he didn't know if he could kill that reckless man in one fell swoop.
Now the county lieutenant panicked, the county lieutenant was already at odds with himself, but everyone had each other's origins, and no one could help anyone, and now he accidentally offended the nobleman, if he was calculated by this villain, he would be doomed.
So he gritted his teeth, picked up the wine bottle and walked in front of Lin Ze, first made a big salute, and said: "There are many offends before the lower officials, the adults don't remember the villains, if the nobles are willing to let go of the lower officials, but if there are orders, only the nobles' orders must be obeyed." β
Lin Ze played with the wine bottle with one hand, and said undeniably when he heard the words: "Okay, you can go with me later, there is indeed something that you need to do." β
The county lieutenant was overjoyed when he heard this, drank the wine in the wine bottle in one gulp, and nodded heavily: "Well, but please ask the nobleman to command." After saying that, he returned to his seat, and glanced at him defiantly as he passed by the county lieutenant.
However, the county lieutenant was a bit of a city government, although he was in a hurry, he didn't bother Lin again.
Lin Ze shook his head, don't care about these bullshit, for him, it doesn't matter if he pinches a county lieutenant to death or not, but he hates people treating him as a fool and borrowing his knife to kill people.
The banquet that followed slowly moved into the gΔochΓ‘o.
First of all, the officials led by the county guard expressed their admiration for the prince of Hu Hai, and felt that the prince of Hu Hai could come to Nanyang and participate in this banquet.
Next, I paid attention to the life of Gongzi Hu Hai, and finally wished Gongzi Hu Hai success in this expedition, won all battles, and expanded the territory for Daqin.
Hu Hai replied, Nanyang is a brilliant person, and the officials here are all good, I wish Nanyang will go to a higher level under the governance of your group of capable officials, and finally be promoted to become rich.
and then humbly praised each other, but Lin Ze felt that this Nanyang cook was good, and the delicacies he made had a special taste.
The banquet ended in a relatively harmonious atmosphere.
The county guard and other officials diligently sent Hu Hai, who refused to stay overnight, out of Nanyang City.
Only the county lieutenant remembered what Lin Ze said and followed behind.
When he left the city, all the officials had dispersed, and Hu Hai couldn't help but ask: "Lin Ze, what are you doing with him, do you want to kill people in the middle of the night to vent your anger?"
All of a sudden, it almost scared the lieutenant's legs weak, is it so perverted?
Lin Ze rolled his eyes: "I'm going to chop him up, eat it, do you want to take a bite?"
At this time, the county lieutenant couldn't help it, and hurriedly shouted: "My lord, spare my life, there are old and young officials, spare my life." β
Lin Ze frowned: "Don't shout, scare you, let me ask you, the guards of Nanyang County, are you commanding?"
When the county lieutenant heard the first half of the sentence, his heart relaxed, and when he heard the second half of the sentence, he couldn't help but lift his heart again, and asked: "What are you doing here, the army can't move around." β
Lin Ze was unmoved: "I need you to transfer some troops to help me do something." β
The county lieutenant looked embarrassed: "Please forgive me, the lower officials really don't dare to move the army at will, and they will be tracked down by the imperial history, and the consequences will be very serious." β
Lin Ze's face was flat, you can pretend to be me if I talk to you well, and then said coldly: "Then I wish Lord County Lieutenant an early promotion and fortune, and I will leave." β
The county lieutenant was anxious, pounced, and knelt in front of Lin Ze: "Don't go, the nobleman has something to discuss, I don't know what the nobleman wants to do with the troops, and the subordinate will try to cooperate." β
Lin Ze glanced at him with disgust and said: "What I want is a definite answer, if you can't command the county soldiers, I can naturally find someone who commands the county soldiers, I believe that a lot of people are willing to do it, such as the county lieutenant." Without waiting for the lieutenant to reply, he bypassed him and walked on.
The county lieutenant was really panicked at this time, and quickly stood up and chased after Lin Ze, shouting: "Don't go, nobleman, the lower official agreed, and the lower official agreed to everything." β
Lin Ze turned around and looked at the county lieutenant coldly: "Are you sure you can agree to anything?" You can think about it, I'll give you one last chance, otherwise you will play me like this, and prepare for your own future when you go back." β
The county lieutenant gritted his teeth and affirmed: "Well, even if the noble man orders, the subordinate will definitely do it." β
Lin Ze showed a hint of a smile at this time: "That's right, come, listen carefully to what I want you to do." β
After Lin Ze finished speaking, the county lieutenant was obviously relieved.
Hu Hai looked at Lin Ze with a painful face: "Lin Ze, wouldn't it be good for you to do this." β
Lin Ze replied lightly: "No matter what, they have to get used to it, don't they?" You and I can find a better position and watch it carefully." β
Then Lin Ze took Hu Hai to a hillside and looked at the Sky Wolf Army camp.
It didn't take long for the county lieutenant to bring in a thousand men from the county soldiers, dressed in light armor, armed with bows and arrows, and fire oil, riding horses, all wrapped in cloth and hooves, waiting for Lin Ze's orders.
Lin Ze ordered: "Remove the arrowheads, wrap them with oil, and let the other two prepare to hit the drums, and when the whole army is ready, send three arrows in a row, and then you can take people to ride through the camp, and go back by yourself, and the other horse will be more powerful when riding." β
The lieutenant nodded his head to show that he understood, and asked the heralds to spread the word to the whole battalion, and although the county soldiers were full of doubts, they pulled people out in the middle of the night just to do this, but they still strictly carried out the military orders.
A moment later, after the preparation was completed, Lin Ze waved his hand, and a rain of rockets fell into the camp of the Sky Wolf Army, and dozens of fires broke out in an instant, and the soldiers on duty immediately found it, knocked the gong in their hands and shouted: "Enemy attack." β
After the first rain of arrows fell, the soldiers had just woken up from their dreams, not knowing what had happened.
Then two more rockets rained down, and the whole battalion was in chaos, and many soldiers ran out before they had time to pierce their armor, and the officers at all levels shouted loudly to assemble in teams.
After shouting for a while, the soldiers slowly gathered in, and the sound of horses' hooves and drums marching was heard outside the camp, and the soldiers who had just had a clue were in confusion again, not afraid, but went back to the camp, hurried up the time to put on armor, and took their weapons.
Lin Ze looked at Hu Hai, who was pale, and said faintly: "Without the baptism of the battlefield, the new army will always be a new army." β
Then he waved his hand to signal that the county lieutenant could go, and quietly watched the chaos of the Sky Wolf Army.
