The wind and snow have stopped, the snow has melted, the climate is gradually warming up, and the war is about to break out.

Lin Chengyu stood on the city wall, gazing into the distance. Wrapped in a thick and warm cloak, the cold was driven out.

"coming soon."

Xuan Zheng's expression straightened up, and he instantly understood what he said without any doubt. He immediately sent someone to pass the order and be ready to fight at any time.

As soon as the order was given, Qiu Xiong and his men went up to the city wall, holding telescopes, and looked into the distance for a long time, but saw nothing.

"Your Majesty, there is not even a bird, why fight?"

Xuan Zheng's expression was cold and stern, and the aura honed in his blood was stronger than before. Facing the doubts of Qiu Xiong and others, he did not waver at all.

Qiu Xiong and the others were unable to persuade him. When they glanced at Lin Chengyu, they were once again shocked by his appearance. How could someone in the world look like this?

If he were born a girl, he would probably be another beauty that brings disaster.

Wait, beauty is the root of trouble?!

Next to Qiu Xiong, Shi Jie, who was strong but still within the normal range, suddenly changed his expression. His inquiring eyes wandered over Lin Chengyu and Xuan Zheng for a moment. It was unknown what he was thinking about, and his face became very ugly.

Compared to Qiu Xiong's thoughtless words, Shi Jie was obviously more tactful, "I wonder how the prince knew that the enemy was coming?"

As he spoke, his eyes were on Lin Chengyu, obviously doubting him.

Lin Chengyu smiled brightly, "I said it, General Shi, there is no need to test it, there is nothing to hide about this matter."

Qiu Xiong asked in a rough voice, "This is not a joke. You are a child, so if you don't understand, don't get involved. Don't think that just because the emperor has awarded you the title of marquis, you can talk nonsense here."

He had already determined that this pretty boy was talking nonsense. Even a telescope couldn't see it, so how could this pretty boy know the truth?

Moreover, ever since this pretty boy came to the border, the prince has become more and more absurd. He allowed him to act so recklessly even in such a big matter.

No, I was just playing around with him.

Qiu Xiong gritted his teeth in anger, "Does the prince want to imitate King You of Zhou and 'play tricks on the princes with beacon fires' just for this pretty boy?"

He pointed at the soldiers waiting in battle formation below and said, "Their lives are hard enough. They have left their homes and their parents, wives and children are not around. Why are you playing tricks on them like this? Aren't you afraid that the soldiers will be disheartened?"

After saying this, he was about to let the soldiers disperse, but was stopped by Lin Chengyu, "General Qiu, you also said that this matter is of great importance. Although I have never fought in a war, I also know the difficulties of the soldiers. How could I play tricks on them?"

Qiu Xiong didn't believe him. He frowned and was about to curse, but Shi Jie raised his hand and pulled him behind him.

Shi Jie said: "Without any evidence, it is hard for us to believe you."

The other two nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Lin Chengyu said: "I also know this. Anyway, the soldiers are ready. Why not wait a little longer and everything will become clear."

Qiu Xiong was obviously unwilling to accompany him in "making trouble" and said angrily: "You said wait? Who do you think you are? I don't want to wait."

After saying this, he was about to leave. He couldn't stand the prince indulging this pretty boy's mischief, but Lin Chengyu's next words stopped him in his tracks.

"But if what I said is true, and General Qiu's willful behavior ultimately led to heavy casualties among the soldiers, can General Qiu bear this responsibility?"

Qiu Xiong stopped suddenly. Yes, if it was true, then wouldn’t he be a sinner?

He scratched his hair, sighed heavily, turned around and walked back.

"Since you say so, I will wait a little longer."

"If it turns out that what you said is all false, don't blame us for being ruthless."

"Although I cannot touch you, I will tell the world what kind of person the Ning'an Marquis, who was personally appointed by the current emperor, is. Let's see how you end up then."

Lin Chengyu was naturally not afraid.

After half an hour, there was still no movement. Qiu Xiong's dissatisfaction reached its peak, and he wished he could hang this pretty boy who deceived the prince on the city wall.

"What else do you have to say..."

Shi Jie suddenly interrupted him, "Quiet and listen!"

It's the sound of horse hooves!

Judging from the noise, the enemy is not far away.

Qiu Xiong and his companions quickly picked up their telescopes and looked over.

The enemy really came.

Under the telescope, the dark mass of enemy troops was getting closer and closer. Judging from the situation, it was bound to be a tough battle.

Needless to say, in just a moment, Xuan Zheng and his soldiers put on their armor and went into battle. They were all full of fighting spirit and vowed to drive the enemy back home.

Qiu Xiong didn't know what he remembered, and suddenly looked up at the city wall. Lin Chengyu was still standing there, not moving.

Damn, is this pretty boy trying to kill himself?

I just asked him to go back, but he turned a deaf ear to me. It’s already this time, and he thinks we are playing house. This is a war, not a game.

Qiu Xiong was so angry that he wanted to eat someone. He shouted at the people on the tower: "Go back, go back quickly!"

This roar almost deafened Shi Jie who was standing next to him, and he gave him a look of disgust.

Qiu Xiong saw that the figure on the tower was still motionless, and his back teeth were about to break. "Your Highness, look at that little... boy, is he standing there as a living target? If he wants to die, don't die here."

When Xuan Zheng turned around, Lin Chengyu happened to look over. The two looked at each other, and everything was self-explanatory. He glanced at Qiu Xiong, who was so anxious that his butt was smoking, and said, "He knows his limits."

Qiu Xiong was so angry that he nearly fell backwards. He had no sense of propriety at all. He now felt that the pretty boy might have been deceived by the prince. Look at the prince's calm demeanor. The pretty boy was so thin that it was no exaggeration to say that he was powerless. Yet the prince was not worried at all.

After the fight, he will definitely have a good talk with the pretty boy, telling him not to be fooled by the prince's face.

After what happened just now, Qiu Xiong reluctantly believed that Lin Chengyu had some abilities that ordinary people didn't have. Moreover, since he had spoken so harshly just now, reminding him was also an apology.

But soon, he no longer had the heart to think about these things.

When two armies fight, momentum is indispensable. Once the momentum is low and the army is not united, it will be difficult to win.

What's more, the enemy was obviously well prepared this time.

Moreover, their leading general was very fierce, and when he fought with Xuan Zheng, he was able to fight back and forth.

Lin Chengyu was looking down from a high place, and with his excellent eyesight he could take in the entire situation below. A cold light suddenly flashed in his dark eyes, and he lightly tapped his toes and jumped down from the city wall.

The enemy general obviously noticed him. As he raised his sword to block, he let out a sinister laugh and immediately ordered his men to attack him.

Qiu Xiong, who was not far away, naturally heard the order and watched a group of people gather around the city wall.

He looked carefully and saw that the person under the city wall could not be anyone else but Lin Chengyu.

"Damn it, why did the pretty boy fall down?!"
