Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 435: Laughing about Life and Death

A trench was also dug around the city of Dadur, and a drawbridge in front of the city gate was suspended high in the air.

Many soldiers stood on the city wall, staring at the Qingshui Legion two miles away from afar.

Lin Feng ordered them to set up camp on the spot and everyone dismounted to rest.

For a long time, the Tatars have been wandering around arrogantly outside the major cities.

This time the situation was reversed. The engineers of the Qingshui Army began to get busy in the camp, while the other soldiers dismounted and began to help the war horses rest.

No one thought that the Tatars would come out of the city to fight, just like the Tatar cavalry had thought before.

As the army entered, Wei Bao sent out cavalry to scout around.

When Lin Feng sat down to drink water and rest, the nearby terrain map had already been handed to him.

After all, the Tatars were only two miles away, and the war horses could reach them in a moment.

The entire Qingshui Army was relaxed on the outside but tense on the inside, with some soldiers keeping a close eye on the movements on the city walls.

Lin Feng spread out the topographic map and looked at it carefully.

This is the first time I'm leading an attack on a Tartar city. I don't have to fight beautifully, but at least it shouldn't be too ugly.

The city of Datul was built along the water, about three or four miles away from the lake.

The entire city depends on this lake for its survival.

Several generals sat around Lin Feng, drinking water, chewing dry food, but their eyes were fixed on the city wall.

Hu Jincai swallowed a mouthful of dry food.

"Boss, the Tartars are definitely useless in defending the city. Let's just charge in with all our might."

Lin Feng glanced at him.

"How?"

"The long-range attack battalion fired arrows to suppress the Tatar counterattack, and the engineering battalion filled the trench. The city wall was not high, so the chariots were placed on the wall and the soldiers climbed up."

Hu Jincai still used his brain.

Everyone nodded as they listened.

Lin Feng shook his head: "We only have so many people. We have no reinforcements when we enter the Tatar territory. We should try to minimize the losses."

Lin Qiaomei smiled and said, "Brother, just send a thunderbolt to knock down the wall for him."

Lin Feng still shook his head: "How can it be so easy to invite the thunder from the sky? It will consume my energy."

Several people turned to look at Lin Feng with smiles in their eyes.

Everyone understood that Lin Feng was joking.

The thunder in the sky was fake. I don’t know what weird thing my boss made, but it made the Tartars cry for their parents, which made everyone feel very happy.

Li Donglai asked with a smile: "Boss, that thing is not easy to get out, right?"

"That's good to know. If the supply is endless, I won't be polite to them."

"We listen to our eldest brother. We fight as he says."

Zhao Shuo came over at this time.

This guy hasn't shown up for a long time. He's been staying in the Heavy Armor Camp and having a great time.

This time, he saw Na Lan following Lin Feng all the time, so he ran back.

One reason was that he was worried about Lin Feng's safety, and the other was that he felt that Nalan was really beautiful and had a unique charm compared to other beauties.

Of course, in his heart, he didn't know which of these two reasons was more important.

Lin Feng turned his head and looked at him: "Hey, Lord, haven't you had enough fun yet?"

Lin Feng took special care of this marquis of the Dazong Dynasty.

But Zhao Shuo was also very competitive and did not seek special treatment because of his identity.

Instead, he always rushed to the front line and fought without regard for his life.

That's why Lin Feng was particularly tolerant of him.

Zhao Shuo chuckled, "Brother, this heavy armored battalion you created is so fucking awesome. It's invincible."

Indeed, every time he put on heavy armor and rode his horse into the enemy camp, he felt a great sense of satisfaction in killing.

But the other party just can't do anything to me, that feeling is so exciting.

Chu Jiao sat cross-legged on the grass not far away, chewing some dry food, and spoke at this time.

"You were the only one having fun, but you broke two sets of armor."

His tone was full of complaints.

She succeeded Li Hu as the leader of the heavy armor battalion and knew how valuable heavy armor was.

Every time a set was damaged, she felt heartbroken.

Zhao Shuo stiffened his neck and said, "Then why don't you tell me how many Tartars I have killed?"

Chu Jiao raised her hand and pointed at the heavy armor camp in the distance.

"Without you, can't my people kill the Tartars? Are you the only one who can do it?"

Zhao Shuo curled his lips and said, "Tsk, then I'll go to the chariot camp and kill them just the same."

Xie Zhongyi grinned: "Hey, Lord, the chariot is more valuable than heavy armor. It's not fun."

Lin Qiaomei giggled.

"Zhao Shuo, come to my long-range attack camp. There are plenty of excellent bows and arrows. You can do whatever you want with them."

Zhao Shuo glanced at her with disdain.

"Forget it. You are the most boring ones. You are so far away from the Tartars that you can't even see whether you hit them or not."

"Bah, you want to come over, but I don't want you."

Cheng Liang came over with a smile.

"My Lord, you are our captain, yet you are nowhere to be seen all day."

Zhao Shuo touched his head and said, "Oh, that's right. I'm also the captain of the guards. Hehe, I have multiple responsibilities."

As he spoke, he moved closer to Lin Feng.

"Brother, do you feel that giving orders from behind isn't as enjoyable as before?"

Lin Feng frowned: "Before?"

"Yes, you always led us to the front in the past."

Hu Jincai glared and said, "Boss is the commander-in-chief now. What should we do if something goes wrong?"

Lin Qiaomei shouted, "Even if you, Zhao Shuo, die three or five times, my brother won't be in any danger."

"Hey, what are you talking about? What do you mean by dying three or five times?"

Li Donglai smiled and said, "It means that it is difficult to kill you, Lord Zhao."

"This is nonsense, I..."

Seeing that they were talking more and more chaotically, Lin Feng quickly stopped them.

"Stop arguing, drink some water to moisten your throat, and let's talk about business."

As soon as he spoke, everyone shut up and drank their water and ate their food seriously.

Although Nalan followed Lin Feng, he never said a word except pointing out the way.

Just watching this group of people quietly.

She sighed in her heart, what kind of people are these? Even at the front of the battle, they are still so relaxed.

Everyone talked about life and death with a smile and calmly.

She turned her head and looked at Lin Feng again. This guy who had convinced her completely must have high prestige in front of this group of people.

Nalan became more and more interested in Lin Feng's pre-war arrangements.

From her perspective, she really wanted to know how Lin Feng won each and every victory.

After Lin Feng called out to everyone and looked at them drinking water with their heads tilted back, he suddenly got an inspiration.

"Tell the engineering battalion to stop building the camp, and you guys come over and take a look."

As he spoke, he spread out the topographic map and asked a few people to come over and look at it.

"We'll split into three groups and set up camp in the middle and on both sides of the lake, with a distance of about 200 steps between them."

Hu Jincai reacted the fastest and immediately understood what Lin Feng meant.

"Boss, are we going to control the city's water use?"

"How clever! The city relies entirely on this lake for water. Once the water is controlled, it won't be long before they have to leave the city to fight us."

Zhao Shuo clapped his hands and said, "Come on! In less than three days, the men and horses will surely die of thirst."

"Well, I have to fight."

"Dig a pit in front of the camp and let them rush in to die."

Everyone was talking about their ideas at once, and it was obvious that they all liked this method.

They avoided the losses of siege, waited for the enemy to tire themselves out, and strangled the Tartars.

Lin Feng acted immediately. He waved his hand and ordered the engineering battalion to separate and move the troops to the designated location before it got completely dark.

Three camps were built around the lakeside of Dadur City in half a night.
