Chapter 195: Burning the Enemy Camp
"General Ling, I didn't expect you would..." Yang Xin hesitated, as if he wanted to express something but couldn't find the right words to describe it.
Seeing this, Lin Qingyan raised her eyebrows and smiled, with a hint of cunning in her eyes, and said softly: "Disguise."
Upon hearing this, Yang Xin's frown relaxed immediately, with a look of sudden enlightenment on his face: "Yes, yes, disguise! Not only did you imitate the voice so well, but even the movements and expressions are so lifelike that it is hard to tell the real from the fake. If I didn't know that you were Ling Jianjun himself, I would have doubted whether you were the man from Budo Island."
Hearing this, Lin Qingyan smiled proudly, with a confident light flashing in her eyes.
She patted Ling Nianxiao's shoulder gently and said proudly, "Of course. Don't you see who my husband is? He is the best man among women. You don't usually have the chance to see such a demeanor."
After hearing this, Ling Nianxiao smiled slightly and didn't say much.
The thumbs up Yang Xin gave Ling Nianxiao froze in mid-air before she could retract them. The corners of her mouth twitched unconsciously, and she was obviously a little surprised by Lin Qingyan's straightforward praise.
Looking at Ling Nianxiao's calm and unsurprised expression, Yang Xin couldn't help but feel a strong curiosity in her heart, and became more and more curious about the two of them.
How did they get along with each other on a daily basis to make people feel the beauty of love? Even she began to look forward to finding her future husband.
If Yang Xin knew that Lin Qingyan had praised Ling Nianxiao generously in the Jinwu Hall, perhaps the only thing she could say at this moment was: Lieutenant General Lin's behavior has been restrained.
"Okay, we can set off." Ling Nianxiao said softly, and then led the two of them towards the target he had already locked on to in his mind - the tent that he suspected held a secret.
It was a coincidence, as if it was destined by heaven, that these soldiers seemed to be privately dissatisfied with the so-called prince's proposal to guard the food and grass, so except for a few guards on duty each round, there were no other people nearby.
As a result, Lin Qingyan and Yang Xin entered the tent smoothly. They gently opened the curtain and saw the large amount of food and grass stored by the enemy.
Yang Xin went up to set fire to the food, but was stopped by Ling Nianxiao.
"Military Supervisor, if we don't start burning now, when will we start burning?" Yang Xin didn't understand why Ling Nianxiao wanted to stop him. Now was a great opportunity. If he missed it, there would never be such a good opportunity in the future.
Lin Qingyan patted her head at this time: "Are you stupid?"
"Although we have burned it now and the mission is accomplished, once the fire is lit, it will definitely attract a lot of people around. How are we going to get away then?" Lin Qingyan looked at Yang Xin, really not knowing what to say.
Ling Nianxiao gave Lin Qingyan a look at this time, and Lin Qingyan understood instantly. Lin Qingyan turned around and walked behind her, and soon disappeared into the night.
Yang Xin was already a little confused, and now she was even more at a loss: "What is Lieutenant General Lin going to do? What exactly are you two planning? I don't understand what you are saying, and now you are even more silent, which makes me look like a mentally retarded person."
"Just wait here." After leaving this sentence, Ling Nianxiao turned around and left, starting to search the surrounding tents.
Yang Xin was left standing there in deep thought, his mind full of questions, not knowing what on earth they were trying to do.
Not long after, Lin Qingyan and Ling Nianxiao came back together, each of them holding a jar in their arms.
"What is this?" Since the jar had not been opened and there was no smell, Yang Xin had no idea what was inside.
Ling Nianxiao did not respond, but directly opened the jar in his arms and then sprinkled the liquid inside evenly on the food.
"Strong liquor."
As Lin Qingyan explained, she began to empty the jar in her hand.
Yang Xin curled her lips in disdain, thinking that even if she didn't say it, she would have already smelled the strong aroma of alcohol.
At this moment, a jar suddenly appeared in front of him: "There are four tents next to it, all filled with food and grass."
Yang Xin immediately understood her intention. Without saying a word, he took the jar of wine and quickly went into one of the tents she mentioned.
The three men moved quickly and soon spilled all the liquor on the food.
Seeing that Lin Qingyan and Ling Nianxiao did not seem to make any further moves, Yang Xin could no longer suppress her curiosity and asked, "The wine has been spilled, why don't you light the fire yet?"
Lin Qingyan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and said, "Don't be impatient, wait a little longer."
Yang Xin looked at the two people in front of her, and her curiosity grew stronger, but she suppressed it and did not ask any more questions. However, the small movements of her feet betrayed her inner uneasiness - she raised one foot and kept rubbing it on the other calf.
Suddenly, a scream broke the silence.
"what!"
"Who? What happened?!"
"Ah, hurry up, someone come!"
The camp not far away suddenly fell into chaos. The soldiers guarding the city gate mistakenly thought that it was an enemy attack and their attention was instantly drawn to it.
At this critical moment, Ling Nianxiao whispered, "Light the fire."
Lin Qingyan nodded and threw the fire signal in her hand towards the pile of food and grass. Yang Xin looked back and happened to see Ling Nianxiao's cold figure in the firelight. At that moment, he seemed particularly resolute and courageous.
The shock this scene brought to her was no less than the praise Lin Qingyan gave to Ling Nianxiao before.
"water!"
"Go get some water!"
"Hurry up and put out the fire, the food is on fire!"
Several people took advantage of the chaos in the tents and quickly ran to the city gate, while the soldiers who were originally responsible for guarding were frightened by the flames of the food and grass area and didn't know what to do. When they came to their senses, they also hurriedly joined the fire-fighting team.
This made it easier for Ling Nianxiao and the others to escape. They ran all the way to the grove where the horses were tied. It was late at night and the horses were also sleeping.
As Yang Xin patted their heads one by one, the horses' eyes showed reluctance, as if they were saying, "It's the middle of the night and they can't sleep?"
Yang Xin said as she took the photo: "Hurry up and get up. Don't sleep any more. Carry us home."
Several people rode their horses back at full speed, not daring to stop for a moment, for fear that the enemy would catch up with them.
