I'm a useless prince, so what if I know a little bit of chemistry?

The area bordering the capital is Yihe County.

Outside Yihe County is the Luo River, so the navy there is naturally extraordinary.

The governor of Yihe County was also an extraordinary person. He was Lin Qi, a member of the iron-hatted king Lin Zhengguo's family.

Lin Qi was originally a military general. When the war broke out, Emperor Liang was surrounded and killed by three hundred people. When his life was in danger, Lin Qi rushed in with his sword and rescued Emperor Liang. Therefore, Lin Qi was also known as Lin Yidao.

Although Lin Yidao was born a military general, he also had extraordinary talent in internal affairs, which is why he was appointed as a prefect by Emperor Liang.

Lin Fan was very interested in Lin Yidao. As soon as he entered Yihe County, he wanted to meet Lin Yidao.

"My lord, Lin Yidao has a strange temper and has always been at odds with the general. Do we really have to enter Yihe County?" Xiang Long was a little worried and asked Lin Fan what he thought.

"Discord? Haha, I would like to meet this so-called Lin Yidao." Lin Fan looked ahead with a little anticipation.

"We are now representing the imperial court, and we cannot leave any handle for criticism." Lin Fan explained, seeing that Xiang Long was still a little worried.

"Yes! The entire army will head straight to Yihe County!"

"Yes!"

When you step into the territory of Yihe, although it is not as prosperous as the capital, the surrounding scenery is also beautiful in a unique way.

Especially the mountain in front of him was much higher than the mountains surrounding the capital. Lin Fan even wanted to climb the mountain to experience the feeling of overlooking all the small hills.

"kill!"

Just as Lin Fan was savoring the surrounding scenery, shouts and screams of killing were heard from the valley, getting closer and closer.

"Oh? As soon as we arrived in Yihe County, we encountered bandits? This Lin Yidao is just like that?" Lin Fan narrowed his eyes and looked ahead.

"Protect the Marquis!"

Xiang Long roared, and the heavy cavalry immediately surrounded Lin Fan.

"Haha, it's better not to do this. If others see it, wouldn't they think that I, Lin Fan, am afraid of death?" Lin Fan said with a smile.

Under Lin Fan's arrangement, the heavy cavalry returned to their previous formation.

The biggest advantage of the heavy cavalry is when they charge, rather than surrounding Lin Fan like they did just now.

Although this cavalry unit is quite powerful, Lin Fan is not scared by the bandits.

"Oh, it's still a fat sheep. Brothers, we are going to have some meat."

Soon, a team of eight hundred people rushed down the hillside.

These eight hundred men were dressed differently, but they all held weapons in their hands, and their ranks were neat, which was very different from ordinary bandits.

If you want to train such a team, bandits alone will definitely not be able to do it.

Unless these people are not bandits, or there is a master behind them directing them?

"Everyone, I'm new here and I'm surrounded and attacked by you all. Isn't that a bit unfair?" Lin Fan kicked the horse's belly, and the horse took two steps forward. He clasped his fists and spoke.

"You are such a nice-looking pretty boy. If that's the case, I won't kill you. As long as you leave your horses, weapons and armor behind, I will let you go!"

From the opposite team, a person wearing a veil and riding a white horse walked out. Her voice was extremely pleasant, and it was obviously a woman.

"Oh? So you're a girl? But don't you think that's a bit too arrogant?" Lin Fan smiled.

Although there are many people on the opposite side, they are all infantry and have no armor to protect them.

In this situation, a single charge by heavy cavalry would be enough to defeat them.

However, the other party appears to be fearless. In this case, if he is not a madman, then there is something fishy going on.

"Haha, you can try it." The veiled woman laughed and did not take Lin Fan's words to heart.

Lin Fan really couldn't understand why he could act so confident, so he turned to look at Xiang Long and asked:

"Brother Xiang, what do you think?"

Xiang Long frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "The other party must be scheming, and trying to provoke us to go over. We are all cavalry, and if they set a trap, it will be troublesome."

Lin Fan thought about it and considered several possibilities.

First, as Xiang Long said, there was a horse pit on the ground.

The second is to lure the cavalry away from the opposite side, and then set up ambushes around them, capture the leader first, and capture Lin Fan and others in one fell swoop.

If this is the case, not to mention five hundred cavalrymen, even five thousand cavalrymen will be defeated without a fight.

"The person opposite is Mr. Lin?"

Lin Fan was thinking when he suddenly heard a familiar voice. He looked up and saw Yang Wenhu walking out slowly.

"Brother Yang? I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon!" Lin Fan said with a smile when he saw that it was Yang Wenhu.

"It is indeed Master Lin. If that is the case, there is no need to start a war."

Yang Wenhu waved his hand, and the other 800 men all dispersed.

"Mr. Lin, could you come over and talk?" Yang Wenhu asked loudly.

"My Lord, be careful of traps." Xiang Long leaned close to Lin Fan's ear and reminded him.

"It's okay. This person is very straightforward and he shouldn't cheat on purpose." Lin Fan thought for a moment and said.

But Lin Fan still signaled Xiang Long with a wink out of caution.

Xiang Long understood and commanded 500 cavalrymen to move forward a distance.

Lin Fan shook the reins in his hand and approached Yang Wenhu alone.

"Brother Yang, I haven't seen you for a few days, but you are still as charming as ever."

Lin Fan greeted him.

"I never expected to meet you here." Yang Wenhu replied indifferently.

Lin Fan asked, "Brother Yang, are you the king of this mountain?"

"Well, that's right. Since the imperial court is unwilling to give me a chance to live, I will rebel against him in order to save my life!" Yang Wenhu said with hatred on his face.

"In that case, Brother Yang, do you know that I am also a member of the imperial court?"

Lin Fan was a little curious. Since Yang Wenhu disliked the imperial court, why was he willing to talk to him like this?

"You are slightly different from them. I, Yang, only kill corrupt officials and evil people." Yang Wenhu smiled and replied calmly.

"Besides, Master Lin did not let his men hurt me that day, nor did he send anyone to hunt me down afterwards. Yang knew that Master Lin was a good man."

Lin Fan had previously asked Heisha about the difference in strength between Heisha and Yang Wenhu.

Heisha replied: "If it is a normal competition, he and I are only on par with each other, but if I want to kill him, I can do it within ten moves."

Yang Wenhu is an extraordinary person. After fighting with Heisha, he also knows that Heisha is an expert in killing people.

If Lin Fan really wanted to kill him, Yang Wenhu would naturally not be able to resist, so he wanted to use this opportunity to repay Lin Fan's favor.

The veiled woman at the side asked, "Brother, is he the person you mentioned before?"

"Yes, it's Master Lin." Yang Wenhu replied calmly, and pointed at the veiled woman and said to Lin Fan:

"This is my sister, Yang Wenjing."

Lin Fan nodded and said to Yang Wenjing, "Hello, Miss Yang. My name is Lin Fan."

Yang Wenjing glanced at him and said, "You can leave now. My brother won't let me kill you."

Lin Fan was stunned. How could Yang Wenjing want to kill him so much?

"Mr. Lin, don't mind. This is my personality. After all, I come from the mountains! By the way, where are you going, Mr. Lin?" Yang Wenhu asked curiously.

"Jiangnan, Shen family."

Yang Wenhu clasped his fists and said, "Oh? I wonder if Master Lin could help me out?"

"Mr. Lin went to Jiangnan and gave this letter to a man named Shi Guanghan, who is a scholar from Jiangnan."

Yang Wenhu took out a letter and handed it to Lin Fan.
