After the tool man strikes [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 70 The Stupid Brother in the Imperial Examination
Li Cuixiang glanced at Lin Ze tenderly. Facing everyone's unbelievable gazes, her expression turned into cruelty, and she said word by word: "I hate Daniel for being crazy and stupid. Ze, so I pushed him off the cliff!"
Hearing her confession so straightforwardly, there was an instant uproar at the scene.
Li Cuixiang's reputation in Dalin Village has always been good, because she usually has a gentle personality, rarely argues with others, and is not like other people's wives who gossip all day long and gossip. It's very good, nothing happened, and after my son passed the exam, he didn't show off his arrogance everywhere. The elders in the village always praised her when they mentioned her, and they got along very well with the younger generations. .
So after Lin Daniu fell off the cliff and fell into the water that day, no one in the village had any doubts about her when she saw Li Cuixiang crying.
Among them, Lin Tiegen was the worst. He pointed at Li Cuixiang tremblingly, "Old lady, what are you talking about? Are you out of your mind?"
Li Cuixiang looked at her man, then at her son who was standing behind with a sad face, suddenly got up and grabbed Lin Tiegen, beating and cursing hysterically.
"Shut up! What right do you have to blame me! Isn't it all because you are useless! The eldest son I gave birth to is useless! It will only drag us down. I have been unlucky for eight lifetimes to marry into your Lin family! My son It was the bad luck of eight lifetimes that I was reincarnated into your Lin family!"
Lin Tiegen was stunned by her scolding, and a few bloodstains were scratched on his face. It took him a while to say, "You, you poisonous woman!"
There is nothing to hide when the trouble has reached this point. Li Cuixiang honestly confessed the dissatisfaction and even resentment she had accumulated towards her stepson Lin Daniu for many years, especially after he fell down the mountain and lost his memory. Unable to bear it anymore, he pushed the person off the cliff on a whim.
After killing someone, she still had lumps in her heart, and was haunted by nightmares every night, so she went to the town and asked the Taoist priest for a ghost-suppressing charm, hoping to make Lin Daniu's soul fly away.
She didn't disclose anything related to Lin Ze, only said that everything was her own idea, she would rather describe herself as a vicious woman with no conscience, but also pick Lin Ze clean, and Lin Ze also He just watched from the side with his face full of pain, as if he was deeply immersed in the pain of killing a close relative by blood, and did not make a sound to defend his mother.
The county magistrate ordered the yamen to handcuff Li Cuixiang, and was about to take him back to the county yamen prison. He was very happy on the face and heart. The arrest of the murderer can be credited to his personal merit. Although the mosquito is small, it is also meat. After winning over Mr. Lu, with his connections in the officialdom, if he can say a few good words to himself, his promotion after his term of office is just around the corner.
The county magistrate walked up to Lu Jingye respectfully, "Master Lu, the murderer has pleaded guilty, do you think we can go back to the Yamen?"
Lu Jingye didn't answer him, but turned to look at his own brat. This was done by A Bao, and he wanted to see what this poor kid had other ideas.
With his hands behind his back and his short legs on his short legs, Ah Bao walked up to Lin Ze step by step, and looked up at him, "Everyone says that you are a smart person who passed the examination of scholar, but you didn't even know that your mother killed your elder brother?"
Lin Ze's expression froze, and then he shook his head bitterly, "I wish I hadn't noticed it earlier, otherwise I wouldn't have let my mother make such a big mistake."
A Bao curled his lips, "Hmph, hypocrisy!" Then he ignored him and returned to his father in a bored manner.
On the way back to the county seat, Ah Bao looked at Lu Jingye's expression, and asked cautiously: "Father, Ah Bao caught the murderer this time, isn't it very powerful?"
Lu Jingye gave a lukewarm "hmm".
"If it weren't for Abao, Lin Daniu would have died unjustly, don't you think so?"
Lu Jingye squinted his eyes and looked at his son, "What do you want to say?"
A Bao bowed his head and pointed at his fingers, "A Bao is so powerful, can you not send me to uncle's house at the end of the year?"
"That's why you ran away from home?" Lu Jingye laughed angrily, "It really broke you, Laifu is still lying on the bed, who did it?"
Abao hung his head and said nothing, Lu Jingye stared at him for a long time, then suddenly changed his tone, "Okay, if you don't want to send it, then don't."
"Really?" Ah Bao looked up happily.
"Well," Lu Jingye showed a kind smile to his son, "it just so happens that your uncle just wrote a letter, and this year he is going south to return to his hometown for the New Year, and he will pass by Zhao'an County in a few days, so let him pick you up and take you away, so as to save you from trouble all day long. Your mother and I will have no peace."
Po: "??"
Surely he wasn't his own? !
The case of a stepmother murdering a stepson is not uncommon in this era, but under the publicity of the county magistrate, this murder case quickly spread throughout Zhao'an County, and Li Cuixiang's name of "poisonous woman" also attracted people all over the world. County sensation.
A few days ago, in order to find the missing Abao, the county magistrate sent people to search the county overnight, and did a lot of disturbing things. It was also to restore his own bad reputation, so he publicized the case with great fanfare. After attracting the attention of many people, the court opened to pronounce the verdict, and Li Cuixiang was sentenced to be executed in autumn.
However, there was no need to wait until after the autumn. A few days after the death sentence was announced, Li Cuixiang hanged herself with a belt in the prison.I heard that Lin Ze visited her the day before the suicide, and spent all his savings to prepare a table of delicious food for her. Li Cuixiang cried bitterly while eating, as if he had deeply repented for his evil deeds, so he chose to die. Apologize.
After that, Lin Ze also disappeared from Dalin Village and even the entire Zhao'an County, which made those who knew it sigh. Without this incident, this newly promoted scholar would naturally have a bright future, and now he is stigmatized as the son of a murderer. After all, it is inevitable to be pointed at and even discriminated against in the local area. It is a wise choice to leave.
The Lin family, which had been bustling for a while because of Lin Ze's examination as a scholar, fell completely silent again, leaving only Lin Tiegen, who seemed to have aged dozens of years overnight, alone behind closed doors. He really couldn't figure it out. Why did his family suddenly fall apart? He had been dreaming about the old man for a long time, and he also turned into a moon in the water. He lost everything overnight.
**
Thousands of miles away on the battlefield in the border town, Lin Lang didn't know that Ah Bao accidentally found out the prisoner who "killed" him, but he himself was in trouble.
With the support of General Fan, Lin Lang took a merciless attack on the invading barbarians. Although he annihilated a large number of barbarians, the result was undoubtedly worth celebrating for Daxing, but his attitude of not making progress But it made the emperor and Prime Minister Qu in the court unhappy.
In the eyes of those in power who are good at calculating all the organs, politics is to take what they need after weighing the pros and cons. Among the officials, tough people like Lin Lang are the least pleasing. Therefore, Lin Lang won the battle beautifully Afterwards, instead of waiting for the reward from the capital, he learned that the last batch of grain supplies this year, which was supposed to arrive ten days ago, had not arrived at the border for a long time.
In the general's camp, Fan Jie showed a sneer, "It's clear, this is the imperial court you are loyal to. What they want is not victory, let alone strong generals, but an obedient dog who tells them to fight!"
Lin Lang grinned in embarrassment. After this period of contact, the old general's temper became more and more irritable. If you scold the emperor, you can scold the emperor, but you don't have to scold him too.
However, the situation is indeed a bit grim. The remaining food and grass in the camp can't last long. Although the barbarian army was beaten by them last time and fled, with the barbarian's consistent virtue of not wanting to suffer, it is only a matter of time before they make a comeback. The Northwest Army Even the food and clothing of the soldiers and horses cannot be guaranteed, and where there will be a battle at that time, they can just raise the flag and surrender.
According to insiders, the supply of food and grass is actually already on the way, but because of heavy snow on the way, it was blocked on a certain official road two hundred miles away from Qicheng. There are too many tricks.
Lin Lang saw General Fan's face full of surprise, and couldn't help asking curiously: "The general thinks who is blocking this time, the emperor or Prime Minister Qu?"
"Is there a difference?" Fan Jie took a sip of tea, raised his eyelids and said, "They are all stupid things that can only see the three-acre land in their hands, not things!"
Lin Lang: "..."
If this word reaches the emperor's ears, a charge of disrespect should not escape.
"How does the general think this matter should be handled?"
"I don't care about this matter," General Fan looked at Lin Lang with a half-smile, "You are the one who leads the army now, so figure out your own way."
The corner of Lin Lang's mouth couldn't help twitching. The general's hands-off shopkeeper must have been too cool, "Aren't you worried that I will mess around and cause innocent soldiers to die?"
Fan Jie sighed, and finally his tone became more serious, "This old man has been in the army for dozens of years. He has climbed from an unknown person to his current position. He has seen many life and death. When he goes to the battlefield, it is like hanging a knife around his neck. The way of life is his own." Those who fought hard are considered lucky to survive, and it is normal to die, but no one deserves to die, and no one dies innocently."
"Besides, aren't you the best at teaching people to live without it?" Fan Jie squinted at Lin Lang again, "You don't need to be suspicious, and you don't need to be suspicious. Since you are asked to lead the army, you should do your best. I have nothing to worry about."
With his words, Lin Lang is really ready to let himself go. His idea is also very simple and rude. If there is not enough food and grass, then go to the barbarians to rob them. It is not an exaggeration to say that the grazing is supported by Daxing in the cold winter, and there is no need to pay attention to morality when dealing with robbers.
Moreover, those people taught by his subordinates are brave and invincible when they go into battle to kill the enemy, but they are more agile than one another when they want to engage in sneak attacks and guerrilla warfare. Isn't it exciting? .
However, he hadn't started to carry out the food robbery plan yet, but bad rumors gradually spread in the Northwest Army, saying that because Lin Lang acted recklessly and violated the Holy Majesty's will, Longyan was furious, and the last batch of supplies this year would not be shipped. Come here, everyone, just tighten your belt and wait to starve.
These rumors were widely disseminated by those who wanted to, and soon spread throughout the entire Northwest Military Camp, and even reached the ears of the people in Qicheng.
The majority of soldiers originally respected Lin Lang because of his bravery against the barbarian god of war Luda on the battlefield. Hearing the news, they all began to feel uneasy. There was also a bit of resentment in his eyes, and some people even began to understand Privately advised Lin Lang to hurry up and give in to the emperor, not to implicate the entire military camp because of personal loyalty, as if as long as Lin Lang bowed his head, their food and grass would be delivered immediately.
It is clearly a decision-making issue for leading the army to fight, but they want to secretly change the concept, and focus and fault all on Lin Lang alone, making him a target of public criticism, and those who spread rumors are also culpable.
When the rumors spread the most, Deputy General Xu led a group of his confidantes to block in front of Lin Lang's camp, and said in a strange way: "General Lin is playing prestige himself, but he has caused innocent soldiers in the army to suffer. Even if he wants to anger Fan General, I have to stand up and say something fair today. What qualifications do you have to lead the entire army! If you continue to mess around, I don’t know what troubles will happen. If General Lin Shen still cares about the lives of the soldiers, why not If you care about the life and death of the people in the border towns, please resign from the post of commander-in-chief and let those who can live there!"
Lin Lang wiped the dust off the armor, and said with a soft smile, "A capable person? Are you talking about yourself?"
Vice General Xu snorted coldly, "General Fan doesn't want to be a member. Is there anyone in the army who is more suitable than me?"
Although Fan Jie said he didn't want to take charge, the military power of the Northwest Army has always been in his hands, and the generals and soldiers only listened to his orders directly. He delegated the power to Lin Lang. Lin Lang was able to lead his troops to severely damage the barbarian army before. Vice General Xu It was only because he couldn't deal with General Fan that he was aggressive and wanted to save the country by forcing Lin Lang.
"Deputy General Xu is not humble." Lin Lang narrowed his eyes, "But you, the majestic lieutenant general of the army, didn't you also listen to those groundless rumors, didn't you?"
Lin Lang cupped his hands in the direction of the capital, "Because I offended the emperor, he withheld the supplies, regardless of the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Northwest Army? This is simply the greatest joke in the world The emperor is brave and wise, loves the people like a son, how could he do such a foolish thing! When I have time, I must find out the person who spread the rumors, and punish him for a crime of disrespect for insulting the holy name!"
"Vice General Xu, you have great influence in the army, why are you spreading rumors here? How sad the emperor would be if he knew about it. Even you don't believe him. I don't know how deep the misunderstanding of the people in the world will be!"
"You!!" Deputy General Xu was once again choked up by Lin Lang, and he understood that this man had a mouth that could piss people off.
No matter how serious the emperor's opinion on Lin Lang was, it was impossible for the emperor to openly express his intention to withhold supplies from the Northwest Army because of Lin Lang. He really had to digest Lin Lang's eccentricity by himself. Vice General Xu sneered and said, "You Just keep talking hard, don't blame me for not reminding you when the food and grass are exhausted."
Before Lin Lang could speak, a small soldier who sent the order suddenly rushed to the tent excitedly, "Report!!"
"Reporting to General Lin and Deputy General Xu, a large number of people have gathered outside the barracks. They all heard that the barracks had insufficient food and grass, so they came here with food on their backs, and they said, they said..."
The little soldier took a big breath, and he didn't know whether he was excited or touched, his face was flushed, "The common people said that it doesn't matter if they eat less, and the army must eat enough to have the strength to go to the battlefield. Beat those savages back, and never dare to attack again! General Lin, what should we do now?"
Lin Lang smiled lightly and glanced at Vice General Xu, "Have you heard the Vice General? If you have nothing else to do, I'll take care of it first? Hey, the people are so enthusiastic, we can't let them down."
Deputy General Xu flicked his sleeves fiercely, and led his confidants away without saying a word, the back view seemed to be running away.
Lin Lang only received a small portion of the food sent by the common people. After all, it is not a long-term solution for the army to rely on the common people to provide food spontaneously. Food, so this approach is not worth advocating, it is enough to understand their intentions.
In the next period of time, Lin Lang dispatched his well-trained men to attack small tribes of the barbarians in a small area. They were neither fond of fighting nor bloodthirsty. , The food they grabbed was also considerable.
Before setting off, Lin Lang solemnly confessed to them that if anyone dares to imitate the barbarians and do such scandalous things like adultery|sexuality|women, he can't be blamed for beheading them on the spot.It is too extravagant to pay attention to ethics and morals with the enemy on the battlefield, but to keep the bottom line, the evil that should be prohibited must still be prohibited.
After more than half a month of this, the grain that was snatched back filled part of the vacancy in the barracks in the barracks. At this time, the superiors knew that the seizure of grain alone was not enough for them, and the official road that had been blocked by heavy snow for many days was finally able to continue. Before the arrival of the Spring Festival, the supplies from the capital finally arrived at the Northwest Camp.
Because of the continuous wind and snow during this period, it is not easy to march and fight outside, and the people of Daxing are not as thick and thick as barbarians, so fighting in winter actually suffers a little bit, so Lin Lang asked the army to stand still for the time being and stay in the camp to practice. The weather is getting warmer.Then take the initiative to send troops to the barbarians, and at the same time keep an eye on the movements of the barbarians.
The barbarians don't celebrate the Spring Festival, and they don't want the people of Daxing to have a good time, so they gather another 15 troops on the eve of New Year's Eve, planning to fight back the humiliation they suffered last time.
However, Lin Lang had guessed their sinister intentions a long time ago, and had formulated a countermeasure in the barracks in advance. As soon as he heard the news from the spies, he immediately led his troops to meet them.
The two armies clashed again in the wasteland last time, and the blood everywhere was washed away by the rain and snow long ago, leaving only countless rotten broken arms and limbs.This time, the barbarian army was led by their leader Xinka himself. Looking at the dead bones everywhere, Xinka's eyes were as cold as a cold pool in deep winter. These are good sons of their tribe, but they died tragically here!
Thinking of the eldest prince Ruda who couldn't bring back even the corpse capital, and the second prince Una, who is paralyzed on the bed and can barely move his hands, Xinka is filled with hatred, and he looks fiercely in the direction of the Daxing Army. He shouted coldly: "Where is Lin Lang, come out and fight with me!"
For the name that killed his two sons, Xin Ka had already engraved it in his heart.
Lin Lang sighed helplessly, and it came again and again, why was there always someone who wanted to fight him alone.
This time he was followed by the former adjutant, but the adjutant has seen General Lin's skills many times during this period, and he is no longer the frog in the well before. Not only will he not stop him, but his eyes are full of excitement, and he can't wait to see Lin Lang once again frustrated the other party's spirit.
Lin Lang rode his horse out of the battle and waved his sword in the air, "Lin Lang is here, please enlighten me!"
This time Lin Lang didn't deliberately show weakness, and the two of them attacked quickly and fiercely as soon as they fought. Xin Ka's skill was not worse than that of Luda, who is known as the barbarian God of War, but he was not Lin Lang's opponent either.
After experiencing many worlds, Lin Lang gradually discovered that, perhaps because they were all constructed by clones, most of the various skills he learned in these worlds were universal, but they could not exceed those of the current world. The rules are limited, and you need to practice proficiency first before you can master it flexibly.
For example, there is no aura in this world, although you can use some skills and moves in the cultivation world, the effect will be greatly reduced, and you can only reach the level of a super master, but this is enough.
Before Xinka could fully enter the state, he directly slashed at his sideburns with a knife, and cut off his right ear along the base of the ear.
Xin Ka took a step back on his horse, and couldn't help but be filled with astonishment. Of course he knew that Lin Lang was good at it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to kill Lu Da, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful. If I'm careless today, my life is over!
However, to his surprise, after Lin Lang slashed the knife, he stopped directly, put away the knife with a relaxed face, and even pretended to say: "The leader of Xinka has accepted, and the dragons must not be without a leader. Let’s save the real fight for later.”
This is simply a naked contempt and insult to him!Xin Ka covered her ears with one hand, raised her knife and rushed over with a grim expression, "You're courting death!"
Lin Lang's expression remained unchanged. When Xin Ka's knife was about to hit him, he suddenly jumped up from his horse. Just like when he dealt with Lu Da before, he jumped on the back of Xin Ka's horse and put the knife on his neck.
"Go on."
With a turn of Lin Lang's blade, another head landed on the ground.
Most of today's 15 barbarians are newly assembled and have not participated in previous battles. The more they despise Lin Lang before, the more shocked they are now. Seeing that the leader has not fought him for a few rounds When the heads fell to the ground, they were already in chaos.
When the two armies officially fought, the barbarian army became more and more terrified. The soldiers in Daxing didn't know how they were trained. They were like slippery loaches, their movements were surprisingly flexible and unpredictable, and there were countless startled horses. The insidious trick of driving horses made their proud cavalry become tasteless.
After finally catching up with a group of fleeing Xingjun, they thought they could start a massacre, but unexpectedly they fell into the trap they dug. When did Xingjun, who used to only fight head-to-head, learn to be so despicable and shameless? up!

Moreover, those people taught by his subordinates are brave and invincible when they go into battle to kill the enemy, but they are more agile than one another when they want to engage in sneak attacks and guerrilla warfare. Isn't it exciting? .
However, he hadn't started to carry out the food robbery plan yet, but bad rumors gradually spread in the Northwest Army, saying that because Lin Lang acted recklessly and violated the Holy Majesty's will, Longyan was furious, and the last batch of supplies this year would not be shipped. Come here, everyone, just tighten your belt and wait to starve.
These rumors were widely disseminated by those who wanted to, and soon spread throughout the entire Northwest Military Camp, and even reached the ears of the people in Qicheng.
The majority of soldiers originally respected Lin Lang because of his bravery against the barbarian god of war Luda on the battlefield. Hearing the news, they all began to feel uneasy. There was also a bit of resentment in his eyes, and some people even began to understand Privately advised Lin Lang to hurry up and give in to the emperor, not to implicate the entire military camp because of personal loyalty, as if as long as Lin Lang bowed his head, their food and grass would be delivered immediately.
It is clearly a decision-making issue for leading the army to fight, but they want to secretly change the concept, and focus and fault all on Lin Lang alone, making him a target of public criticism, and those who spread rumors are also culpable.
When the rumors spread the most, Deputy General Xu led a group of his confidantes to block in front of Lin Lang's camp, and said in a strange way: "General Lin is playing prestige himself, but he has caused innocent soldiers in the army to suffer. Even if he wants to anger Fan General, I have to stand up and say something fair today. What qualifications do you have to lead the entire army! If you continue to mess around, I don’t know what troubles will happen. If General Lin Shen still cares about the lives of the soldiers, why not If you care about the life and death of the people in the border towns, please resign from the post of commander-in-chief and let those who can live there!"
Lin Lang wiped the dust off the armor, and said with a soft smile, "A capable person? Are you talking about yourself?"
Vice General Xu snorted coldly, "General Fan doesn't want to be a member. Is there anyone in the army who is more suitable than me?"
Although Fan Jie said he didn't want to take charge, the military power of the Northwest Army has always been in his hands, and the generals and soldiers only listened to his orders directly. He delegated the power to Lin Lang. Lin Lang was able to lead his troops to severely damage the barbarian army before. Vice General Xu It was only because he couldn't deal with General Fan that he was aggressive and wanted to save the country by forcing Lin Lang.
"Deputy General Xu is not humble." Lin Lang narrowed his eyes, "But you, the majestic lieutenant general of the army, didn't you also listen to those groundless rumors, didn't you?"
Lin Lang cupped his hands in the direction of the capital, "Because I offended the emperor, he withheld the supplies, regardless of the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Northwest Army? This is simply the greatest joke in the world The emperor is brave and wise, loves the people like a son, how could he do such a foolish thing! When I have time, I must find out the person who spread the rumors, and punish him for a crime of disrespect for insulting the holy name!"
"Vice General Xu, you have great influence in the army, why are you spreading rumors here? How sad the emperor would be if he knew about it. Even you don't believe him. I don't know how deep the misunderstanding of the people in the world will be!"
"You!!" Deputy General Xu was once again choked up by Lin Lang, and he understood that this man had a mouth that could piss people off.
No matter how serious the emperor's opinion on Lin Lang was, it was impossible for the emperor to openly express his intention to withhold supplies from the Northwest Army because of Lin Lang. He really had to digest Lin Lang's eccentricity by himself. Vice General Xu sneered and said, "You Just keep talking hard, don't blame me for not reminding you when the food and grass are exhausted."
Before Lin Lang could speak, a small soldier who sent the order suddenly rushed to the tent excitedly, "Report!!"
"Reporting to General Lin and Deputy General Xu, a large number of people have gathered outside the barracks. They all heard that the barracks had insufficient food and grass, so they came here with food on their backs, and they said, they said..."
The little soldier took a big breath, and he didn't know whether he was excited or touched, his face was flushed, "The common people said that it doesn't matter if they eat less, and the army must eat enough to have the strength to go to the battlefield. Beat those savages back, and never dare to attack again! General Lin, what should we do now?"
Lin Lang smiled lightly and glanced at Vice General Xu, "Have you heard the Vice General? If you have nothing else to do, I'll take care of it first? Hey, the people are so enthusiastic, we can't let them down."
Deputy General Xu flicked his sleeves fiercely, and led his confidants away without saying a word, the back view seemed to be running away.
Lin Lang only received a small portion of the food sent by the common people. After all, it is not a long-term solution for the army to rely on the common people to provide food spontaneously. Food, so this approach is not worth advocating, it is enough to understand their intentions.
In the next period of time, Lin Lang dispatched his well-trained men to attack small tribes of the barbarians in a small area. They were neither fond of fighting nor bloodthirsty. , The food they grabbed was also considerable.
Before setting off, Lin Lang solemnly confessed to them that if anyone dares to imitate the barbarians and do such scandalous things like adultery|sexuality|women, he can't be blamed for beheading them on the spot.It is too extravagant to pay attention to ethics and morals with the enemy on the battlefield, but to keep the bottom line, the evil that should be prohibited must still be prohibited.
After more than half a month of this, the grain that was snatched back filled part of the vacancy in the barracks in the barracks. At this time, the superiors knew that the seizure of grain alone was not enough for them, and the official road that had been blocked by heavy snow for many days was finally able to continue. Before the arrival of the Spring Festival, the supplies from the capital finally arrived at the Northwest Camp.
Because of the continuous wind and snow during this period, it is not easy to march and fight outside, and the people of Daxing are not as thick and thick as barbarians, so fighting in winter actually suffers a little bit, so Lin Lang asked the army to stand still for the time being and stay in the camp to practice. The weather is getting warmer.Then take the initiative to send troops to the barbarians, and at the same time keep an eye on the movements of the barbarians.
The barbarians don't celebrate the Spring Festival, and they don't want the people of Daxing to have a good time, so they gather another 15 troops on the eve of New Year's Eve, planning to fight back the humiliation they suffered last time.
However, Lin Lang had guessed their sinister intentions a long time ago, and had formulated a countermeasure in the barracks in advance. As soon as he heard the news from the spies, he immediately led his troops to meet them.
The two armies clashed again in the wasteland last time, and the blood everywhere was washed away by the rain and snow long ago, leaving only countless rotten broken arms and limbs.This time, the barbarian army was led by their leader Xinka himself. Looking at the dead bones everywhere, Xinka's eyes were as cold as a cold pool in deep winter. These are good sons of their tribe, but they died tragically here!
Thinking of the eldest prince Ruda who couldn't bring back even the corpse capital, and the second prince Una, who is paralyzed on the bed and can barely move his hands, Xinka is filled with hatred, and he looks fiercely in the direction of the Daxing Army. He shouted coldly: "Where is Lin Lang, come out and fight with me!"
For the name that killed his two sons, Xin Ka had already engraved it in his heart.
Lin Lang sighed helplessly, and it came again and again, why was there always someone who wanted to fight him alone.
This time he was followed by the former adjutant, but the adjutant has seen General Lin's skills many times during this period, and he is no longer the frog in the well before. Not only will he not stop him, but his eyes are full of excitement, and he can't wait to see Lin Lang once again frustrated the other party's spirit.
Lin Lang rode his horse out of the battle and waved his sword in the air, "Lin Lang is here, please enlighten me!"
This time Lin Lang didn't deliberately show weakness, and the two of them attacked quickly and fiercely as soon as they fought. Xin Ka's skill was not worse than that of Luda, who is known as the barbarian God of War, but he was not Lin Lang's opponent either.
After experiencing many worlds, Lin Lang gradually discovered that, perhaps because they were all constructed by clones, most of the various skills he learned in these worlds were universal, but they could not exceed those of the current world. The rules are limited, and you need to practice proficiency first before you can master it flexibly.
For example, there is no aura in this world, although you can use some skills and moves in the cultivation world, the effect will be greatly reduced, and you can only reach the level of a super master, but this is enough.
Before Xinka could fully enter the state, he directly slashed at his sideburns with a knife, and cut off his right ear along the base of the ear.
Xin Ka took a step back on his horse, and couldn't help but be filled with astonishment. Of course he knew that Lin Lang was good at it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to kill Lu Da, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful. If I'm careless today, my life is over!
However, to his surprise, after Lin Lang slashed the knife, he stopped directly, put away the knife with a relaxed face, and even pretended to say: "The leader of Xinka has accepted, and the dragons must not be without a leader. Let’s save the real fight for later.”
This is simply a naked contempt and insult to him!Xin Ka covered her ears with one hand, raised her knife and rushed over with a grim expression, "You're courting death!"
Lin Lang's expression remained unchanged. When Xin Ka's knife was about to hit him, he suddenly jumped up from his horse. Just like when he dealt with Lu Da before, he jumped on the back of Xin Ka's horse and put the knife on his neck.
"Go on."
With a turn of Lin Lang's blade, another head landed on the ground.
Most of today's 15 barbarians are newly assembled and have not participated in previous battles. The more they despise Lin Lang before, the more shocked they are now. Seeing that the leader has not fought him for a few rounds When the heads fell to the ground, they were already in chaos.
When the two armies officially fought, the barbarian army became more and more terrified. The soldiers in Daxing didn't know how they were trained. They were like slippery loaches, their movements were surprisingly flexible and unpredictable, and there were countless startled horses. The insidious trick of driving horses made their proud cavalry become tasteless.
After finally catching up with a group of fleeing Xingjun, they thought they could start a massacre, but unexpectedly they fell into the trap they dug. When did Xingjun, who used to only fight head-to-head, learn to be so despicable and shameless? up!
