Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish
Chapter 543 Granary
Just talking about the more than one year of getting along with Xiaocao, Lin Xiaoyue was able to hand over the management of the huge inner house of the princess's mansion to her, which in itself was a kind of trust in Xiaocao.
Today, Xiaocao showed her his extraordinary side and lived up to her expectations.
Let's not talk about whether people's hearts will change in ten or twenty years. But Lin Xiaoyue believes that even if anyone will change, the grass will not change.
Even if you call her naive or ridiculous, she had been betrayed before, but now she can still reveal her secrets to others without reservation.
In addition to the fact that Xiaocao is trustworthy, her confidence comes from her own strength.
At most, if Xiaocao betrayed her, then... she would kill Xiaocao herself.
"Okay, I know you won't betray Sister San Ya, so you can go now, Sister Xiao Cao. If we don't leave now, someone will find out where we are."
Lin Xiaoyue stretched out her hands and pulled her round cheeks to the sides, deforming her entire face.
Xiaocao was expressing her loyalty to Lin Xiaoyue, but she didn't expect Lin Xiaoyue to take the opportunity to pinch her cheek. Sister Sanya's bad taste is really... and she doesn't know the occasion.
She was so angry that she slapped Lin Xiaoyue's hand away.
The night was dark and the stars were twinkling. The two men quickly evacuated the treasure house. Under the cover of darkness, they were as quiet as when they came. They left the heavily guarded garrison commander's mansion with important secrets and the years of savings of the garrison commander of Sangguo Town.
Before leaving, Lin Xiaoyue suddenly had an idea and took Xiaocao with her, making many detours, toward a very impressive place that she had caught a glimpse of out of the corner of her eye earlier.
After all, it was the end of the Chou hour (around 3 a.m.), and most people would have fallen asleep by this time. Even at the border, most of the people living there were military families, and except for the patrolling soldiers, everyone else was probably in a deep sleep.
Lin Xiaoyue and Xiaocao carefully avoided the patrolling soldiers like ghosts. They hid in a dark corner, holding their breath and waiting quietly for a team of patrolling soldiers to pass by not far away.
Under the moonlight, the soldier's armor shone coldly, and the heavy footsteps struck the two's hearts again and again. After the soldier gradually walked away, they breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move forward.
Although Xiaocao didn't know where Lin Xiaoyue wanted to go, seeing Sister San Ya's solemn gaze, she closed her mouth and followed behind her carefully without saying a single extra word.
In the dark alley, two figures shuttled back and forth quickly. The stone pavement under their feet was a bit bumpy. The moonlight occasionally shone through the eaves onto the two people, stretching their shadows out very long.
The further they went, the more patrolling guards there seemed to be. Being in the enemy camp, their nervousness was infinitely magnified. Their heartbeats unconsciously sped up a lot, and beads of sweat even appeared on their foreheads. Every time they passed a corner, they would look around nervously, fearing that a patrolling soldier would suddenly jump out from a corner.
Xiaocao wanted to reach out and hold Lin Xiaoyue several times, but as soon as her fingertips moved slightly, she held them tightly.
She bit her lip and reminded herself that she must not delay Sister San Ya. Sister San Ya was so cautious that she must have something important to do.
As they walked, they both seemed to smell a faint scent of food and grass in the air. Xiao Cao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly understood why Sister San Ya took such a risk.
Xiaocao guessed correctly. Lin Xiaoyue’s target this time was the enemy’s granary.
Even if Lin Xiaoyue had never been a soldier, he must have known the truth of "food and fodder must be sent before troops move" from the brainwashing of a large number of TV dramas in his previous life.
However, after she traveled through time herself, she realized that it was unrealistic to wait until the war broke out and wait for food and fodder to be moved to the border with the main force without any reserve granaries.
Therefore, Lin Xiaoyue did not leave the city immediately after visiting the residence of the garrison leader, because she remembered that the border garrison must have a granary specifically for storing food.
The main function of these granaries is to ensure the food supply for local garrisons and transit reinforcements, especially in the event of an emergency war, so that troops can be quickly mobilized for support.
Sure enough, apart from the slightly suspicious impression in her mind when she passed by earlier, coupled with her nose being sharper than a dog's, a seemingly ordinary yard exuding a strong smell of food and grass almost took her soul away.
Hiding in the dark alley, Lin Xiaoyue was extremely excited. With a dim gaze, she spied on several heavily guarded gates outside the opposite yard.
She dared to guarantee that this was definitely the enemy's granary.
The two girls, who were both skilled and courageous, quietly hid behind a pile of debris not far away, carefully observing the movements of the guards.
The guards here all had serious expressions, pacing back and forth with weapons in their hands. Lin Xiaoyue knew that it would not be easy to enter the granary.
Just as she was racking her brains to think of a countermeasure, suddenly, a series of "dangdangdang" gong sounds came. Then, messy footsteps came from the other end of the alley, coming from far away and quickly passing by.
Faintly, I could still hear the other person's voice as he walked away, "Hurry, something happened at Lord Cao's residence, everyone go and provide reinforcements."
"Go quickly, quickly, quickly."
Lin Xiaoyue raised her head again and looked towards the granary gate, her eyes becoming dim and unclear. As expected, the guards over there were also obviously attracted by the harsh gong sound and the commotion.
Soon, half of the guards followed the patrol soldiers and rushed towards the residence of the garrison leader.
In theory, their duty is to guard the granary, but everyone knows how brutal and cruel the garrison leader, Lord Cao, can be when he becomes violent.
Didn't you hear those people who just ran over clearly say that something happened in Lord Cao's mansion? Think about it, if Lord Cao turns around and finds out that these people guarding the granary knew something happened in his mansion, but none of them went over...
Whenever the guards thought of Lord Cao's terrifying methods, they felt a chill in their hearts and shuddered. They decisively sent half of their manpower to provide support.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyue was secretly happy.
Although she didn't understand why these people deserted their posts, with half of the guards missing, there was obviously a loophole in the security for her to exploit.
Lin Xiaoyue gently tugged at Xiaocao and led her around the side. In a pitch-dark alley, she found a dog hole under the wall.
Xiaocao looked at Lin Xiaoyue in shock. She didn't mind the dog hole being dirty and having a strange smell at all. She decisively lay down and crawled into the dog hole.
After a while, Lin Xiaoyue appeared at the other end of the dog hole, with broken leaves and weeds on her head, and her face was somehow black, and waved at her.
This meant that he wanted her to come along as well.
