Battle of the Red Mansions

When General Lin came out of the tent, it was already daylight. If they hadn't known that Prince Ning An was inside, the rest of the camp would have thought that their general had passed out due to injuries.

Lin Xuan stepped out of the tent with a strange expression on his face, as if a wolf was chasing after him.

He never knew that Tu Jingyang, who looked like a modest gentleman, could do such a thing, be a good prince, what is wrong with learning, but...

The more Lin Xuan thought about it, the angrier she became, only feeling that his status was seriously threatened.

After a while, Prince Ning'an, who was full of spring breeze, also came out of the tent, thinking of General Lin's blushing face in the tent just now, his heart was full of joy.

I didn't expect Ah Xuan to be so simple, yes, he was sent to the military camp when he was still young, and there are a bunch of rough guys here, who can give him such things thoughtfully.

Thinking about where Lin Xuan might be going now, Tu Jingyang called Chang Heng who was hiding not far away and squatted over, and asked him to prepare some medicines commonly used in the army and clean up the tent by the way, and then went to find their family Lin Xuan. General.

Looking at the back of their prince with a strange expression, Chang Heng, who was arrested again, let out a long sigh, and obediently followed the orders to do things.

There are quite a few people in the army who know Tu Jingyang, so as soon as the prince came out, someone came to ask if he was looking for their general.

Because this master is in charge of the food and grass in their army, and has a close relationship with their general, no one can neglect him if he is neglected.

"My lord, the general is in the tent right now, do you want your subordinates to take you there?" Looking at the living military pay, the soldiers' eyes shone with a dazzling light, and they couldn't be more enthusiastic.

Prince Ning'an has a good temper, and he has never lost his temper in the army for so many years. Only such a person can bear their general's violent temper.

Staring at the passionate eyes of the soldiers, the smile on Tu Jingyang's face was a little stiff, but he followed along with a gentle voice.

Seeing the enthusiastic men who brought Tu Jingyang here, General Lin's expression twisted for a moment, and then he silently decided to train these guys well after the war here is over.

Although everyone knew about his relationship with Tu Jingyang, closeness and closeness still had to be considered. This was his...whatever, it seemed inappropriate to say that it was a dowry, after all, Tiance was still his.

After being awkward for a while, Lin Xuan looked at Wen Sheng and the soldiers who brought him over to thank him, and then looked at Prince Ning'an who came over, and waved his hand feebly to signal the idlers to stay away from the military secrets.

The people on his side have just arrived, and they arrived before they started arranging them. Although Tu Jingyang is well-known here, it is better not to get involved in such things as fighting.

The relationship between the two of them is enough to make people suspicious, if this person shows any intention of intervening in the war, it will be even more worrying.

Earn money honestly to buy horses and grain, this is better than anything else.

The innocent Prince Ning'an looked at the helpless Lin Xuan, "General, this king is indeed here for business."

Covering her face and looking at Tu Jingyang for a long time, Lin Xuan reluctantly nodded, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Now when he sees this face, he has the urge to shoot at it. If he doesn't say it quickly, he is afraid that he will not be able to control his ready-to-move hand.

Lin Xuan has never been a good-tempered person, but it is rare to be so direct at the moment, especially next to Prince Ning An.

It was a bit confused by their general's attitude, so the Xining defenders didn't understand what was going on, so they pinched their chins and ignored it. After all, it was the matter of the superiors, so it's better for these little soldiers not to understand.

But they didn't care, Tiance's soldiers who had been following Lin Xuan couldn't control their minds anymore.

With this appearance, don't tell me there is something wrong with the relationship between the general and the prince. Is their food and grass okay?

Several Tiances looked at each other in blank dismay, wanting to say something but not daring to say it, which made the Xining defenders feel itchy in their hearts as they just bowed their heads and thought nothing of it. They always felt that there was something they didn't see.

Although there was no sound, all kinds of subtle eyes were floating around, and Lin Xuan didn't care if he wanted to.

Coughing heavily, General Lin, who was not in a good mood, sat there with his face propped on one hand and said sinisterly, "Are you all too busy?"

The smile in Tu Jingyang's eyes did not diminish, and he couldn't help shaking his head when he saw the soldiers who should stand and sit in an instant.

The soldiers raging raging one by one, the soldiers Ah Xuan brought out all had the same temperament as him.

Putting his hand to his lips to suppress his smile, Tu Jingyang raised his eyes to look at Lin Xuan, and then said what he wanted.

Although Xining City is not big and does not have any advantages, there is one thing, that is, it is close to foreigners. Such a place, it would be best for businessmen from the Daqing Dynasty to come here.

As long as it is profitable, let alone in this wild place, even if they are asked to go overseas, no one will refuse.

After listening to Tu Jingyang's words, Lin Xuan thought for a while, then turned to look at You Liang.

"General, there were three people trying to escape last night, and one was let go. A-Gump led others to follow, and they should have reached the grassland by now." Knowing what Lin Xuan wanted to ask, You Liang cupped his hands and answered directly, "The remaining two are still in the grassland." If there is no accident, I am planning how to notify the people in the city right now."

Lin Xuan nodded, then looked at Tu Jingyang who was still meek and squeezed his fists, "My lord, you can hear me, if there is not enough compensation, I'm afraid there is no need to let the foreigners leave, after all, we are the ones who have a chance of winning now that side."

"Don't worry, since the market is going to be held, they won't let them take advantage of it." Going over to squeeze Lin Xuan's hand, Tu Jingyang smiled, "General Lin still doesn't know what kind of person this king is?"

Goosebumps all over her body when she was called "General Lin", Lin Xuan quickly pulled her hand out without even thinking about it, "Since the prince has already made up his mind, I will leave the next thing to you."

It's okay, the relationship is still so good, and the food and grass are stable.

Lowering their heads and quietly making eye contact, the Tiance soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, looking out of the corner of their eyes at the Xining defenders who didn't know what they were doing, and then smiled awkwardly.

After Tu Jingyang finished speaking, he went out. Now that he had greeted Lin Xuan, he could go directly to someone who could really manage the affairs of foreigners.

For example, the right leader who is still locked up in the POW camp.

Tu Jingyang came and left quickly, and after they had left, Lin Xuan tapped the table to signal the soldiers to get back their thoughts.

"General, we finally forced those people into the city, is it possible to release them after this?" You Liang asked with some uncertainty.

Seeing that their general obeyed the prince's words, don't you really fall for the beauty...ah bah...beauty trick, and then forget all about tactics?

Looking at You Liang with a serious face, Lin Xuan sighed quietly, "You Liang, you still don't understand the nature of businessmen. Sometimes their bloodless methods are even more terrifying. You are still too young."

This is the youngest person in the entire camp, and he is still saying something here that they are too young, You Liang is a little hard to say, he opened his mouth and still didn't say anything.

What the general said is indeed correct. Although the merchant's methods are milder than real swords and guns, they are indeed more appropriate in the long run.

Prince Ning'an is a noble man, but his business skills are not comparable to that of ordinary people.

That's right, their general wants to raise soldiers, and their strategy is different from other soldiers. The food and salaries issued by the Northwest Army are far from enough, and only the prince's wealth can support them.

No matter how much money is spent, after all, it is not silver directly from the national treasury, even if the soldiers in other regions are unwilling to say anything.

There is a backstage, not cowardly at all!

Listening to Lin Xuan and You Liang talking in a daze, the Xining defender who once again felt like they were fools scratched his head, then shrank back again.

Putting this matter aside, Lin Xuan squeezed her chin, and then began to discuss what to do next.

Tu Jingyang's peaceful means will indeed be implemented, but before that, they still have to deal with the foreign soldiers in the city first.

A-Gump hasn't come back yet, it's not appropriate for them to send troops at this time, it's better to find a few loud voices to go to the city gate, after all, the power of words is powerful.

No matter how bad it is, when those people can't stand it anymore, they won't be able to use much force to attack.

For the time being, there is nothing serious about Lin Xuan, but General Xie in Wu'an City is different. On the first day, those foreigners came to attack the city as if they were crazy, and they didn't fade away until the evening. All the city gates were silent.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. The gates of the city are tightly guarded. Xie Qiong stands on the gate, frowning and looking at the quiet and strange city outside.

Just yesterday, there was a big battle here.

The foreigners were a little greedy this time, and the troops were divided into two parts to attack the city. Although there was no lack of intention to draw the troops here to Xining, they did not expect that there was an exceptionally brave General Lin over there.

Suddenly they started to stay still. Could it be that Wu'an is not their key target, but Xining is?

But immediately, General Xie knew why it was so peaceful outside today.

Compared to Wu'an, Xining does not need foreigners to spend too much thought. After all, in their minds, that remote town can be easily taken down. Let a leader lead the troops to see where they want to make a fortune in the future. , otherwise, I'm afraid not even a leader will pass.

In real terms, Wu'an really gathered elite foreign soldiers. If not, Lin Xuan could not have trapped the foreign soldiers in the city so easily and captured their leader alive.

Man is not as good as God, so Ah Xuan won by surprise.

Seeing the urgent news from Xining, Xie Qiong rubbed the center of her brows, and then took a pen to write a letter to send back quickly.

What happened in Xining was unexpected, there was a high possibility that foreign reinforcements would come over, it's better for Ah Xuan to deal with it carefully.

However, before General Xie's letter was finished, another letter from Xining was delivered to him.

——Master, next let the educated people use civilized means to solve uncivilized matters. Let's support him in the back and see how much benefit we can get back. We must always keep pace with the times, and we can't always be so rude... ...

......

Whose apprentice is this? Is it okay if he doesn't want it?
