I really can't control myself

It took Linton a lot of time to find King Cheng Li Ying's military camp, because at this time, this guy was no longer at his original location.

Linton naturally took the people who came to Cangqing Mountain to report back, but what he saw after returning was corpses everywhere and an almost unrecognizable camp that was destroyed.

Previously, Li Ying sent someone to ask for help immediately after losing the first game. However, as soon as this person sent the letter, it seemed that Li Ying had already lost the second game.

When Linton found Li Ying again, his gray-faced eyes seemed to lack a little sparkle.

Yes, Li Ying's troops were really miserable to the naked eye at this time. They were all soldiers sitting directly on the ground. It was obvious that the current camp did not even have enough tents. The soldiers, including the injured ones, were lying in the open air. It was obvious that they had just experienced an unusually tragic defeat.

"Son-in-law!" Seeing Linton, Prince Cheng Li Ying suddenly jumped up from the ground, and there seemed to be a little light in his eyes again.

"Huh?" Linton looked at Li Ying in confusion. When did he become the other party's son-in-law? Even though Tianfeng Kingdom called him their son-in-law, he reluctantly accepted it. Where did his identity as the prince's son-in-law come from? It can’t be Li Xiaoyue.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Before Linton could reply, Li Ying started crying first. This inexplicable situation made Linton confused. Was he crying because he was beaten or because he was wronged? A man who looked like he was in his forties was holding him crying. He didn't think it was embarrassing, but even Linton felt disgusted.

"You... don't get excited first." Linton frowned and said, "Come on, let's talk about the situation now."

Li Ying probably realized that crying for such a big person was not good-looking, so she quickly calmed down. With the cooperation of him and a few people around him, Linton probably knew what happened in the past two days.

Not to mention that Li Ying was really obedient, or it was indeed Linton who gave him confidence. In short, Linton said that day that he would raise troops to fight head-on, and Li Ying actually raised troops to fight head-on.

He was already gathering troops here. Before the troops were assembled, he listened to Linton's advice and set off that day with the leading troops of 70,000 people.

The Heyang Road that the army took was the main road leading directly to the capital. It was exactly as Linton warned, and it was completely unobstructed and went straight up.

Naturally, it is impossible for the capital to not react. Although it was said before that the imperial court had more than 600,000 troops, it was naturally impossible to summon so many troops in a short time.

There are about hundreds of thousands of troops standing near the capital that can be mustered at once. So the imperial court immediately ordered troops, and the same vanguard directly sent an army of 150,000 troops, which also headed towards King Cheng's troops.

The two sides met head-on in a plain called Qiumiao, and a direct battle broke out.

The battle lasted from noon to evening, and the result was that Li Ying was defeated and the one who was beaten was miserable.

According to simple statistics, the troops of the imperial court on the opposite side suffered losses of about six to seven thousand, and Li Ying's troops here suffered losses of about thirty thousand. The total number of the vanguard force was only 70,000, and the loss was almost half.

Can Li Ying not be anxious? He was really panicked.

So as soon as he retreated, he immediately asked his men to go to Cangqing Mountain to find Linton. His chances of winning were all on Linton's side. Without Linton's support, he wouldn't have dared to rebel, right? Now that the fighting has begun, the Linton man suddenly doesn't know where to go. Of course he is anxious to death.

In this battle on the plain, Li Ying had already been defeated. In fact, if we had retreated earlier, the losses would not have been that great.

But Li Ying had been insisting before. In fact, he was waiting for Linton. He felt that since Linton had already agreed, he would definitely come out suddenly at the critical moment to help him turn defeat into victory.

As a result, he waited until the troops could no longer hold on and began to collapse. He had not waited for Linton to appear. So when I saw Linton today, he was really a little aggrieved.

Of course, Linton didn't know this at all. When the two sides were fighting here, Linton was still listening to the old monks chanting sutras at Rihua Temple.

Of course, this was only the first defeat.

Just after Li Yinggang sent people to Cangqing Mountain to find people, the camp they had just set up immediately faced a second wave of attacks.

The general on the opposite side led 10,000 cavalry, and took advantage of Li Ying's side who had just retreated and was not yet stable to attack overnight.

Li Ying's troops were almost completely unprepared. They were defeated by the opponent with one blow and the camp was blown up on the spot. The soldiers had just lost a battle and had no morale at all. They were defeated with little resistance.

Before Li Ying could even realize what was going on, she was protected by her subordinates and fled back. When she came to her senses, she was probably in this situation now.

When Linton arrived, Li Ying's men had just gathered up the remaining supplies. At present, there are only about 15,000 people left in the 70,000-strong army, and the opposite side suffered almost no losses, especially in the night attack last night, which defeated their 25,000 troops with almost zero losses.

After hearing this, Linton suddenly understood why Li Ying, a grown man, was beaten so hard that he cried. Not to mention the miserable defeat, I was really aggrieved. After all, they were all following Linton's orders. They really went ahead and did it without any doubts. As a result, they were defeated twice. Can you not feel aggrieved?

"Ahem, cough...what about this..." To be honest, this incident made Linton a little embarrassed. Now that he thought about it, wasn't he going back to Cangqing Mountain to meet such a prince? As a result, Linton suddenly encountered something happening at Rihua Temple, and Linton was immediately lured away by the valuables.

So now think about what happened to the prince? Linton simply forgot about everyone.

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, this is part of the plan." Linton quickly patted Li Ying on the shoulder and said, "Am I here to turn the tide?"

"So, we can still win, right?" Li Ying asked quickly.

"What does it mean to still win? I said this is part of the plan. Everything is in my plan, you know? We have an advantage now." Linton said.

"Uh..." After Linton said this, the people around him were obviously looking at him with distrust, with an expression of "Who are you fooling?"

"No, what do you mean by those looks?" Linton looked at the generals around him, then looked at Li Ying again, "Do you believe me?"

"This..." Li Ying really hesitated.

"Hey, now if you don't believe me, who can I believe? Think about it carefully, you are rebelling, right? Do you think you can still live if you give up or surrender now?" Linton said.

These words woke up Li Ying. It was true that he had no way out, so he nodded and said: "I believe it!"

"That……"
