report!The farm kidnapped me

Chapter 40: Trapped Su Qi to death?
Jian Zhizhi closed his eyes, exhaled a breath, and tightly held the spear in his hand.

When she opened her eyes again, although her heartbeat was still the same, her eyes were much clearer.

Jian Zhizhi's throat was dry and his voice was slightly trembling:
"Where did he go?"

Running away means that they will have no less trouble in the future.

Chen Dongfeng frowned when he saw Jian Zhizhi's face turning pale and his voice saying:
"Running forward, it happens to be the direction we are going. There is probably an army from Lin State guarding there. We are afraid it will be difficult for us to take this road to deliver food to Surabaya City."

Jian Zhizhi glanced sideways at him, and then at the other eight people. They all looked serious and showed no signs of panic.

Jian Zhizhi recalled how crisply and neatly they had just struck, and how they had methodically dealt with the damage even though they were injured. Now that they were so calm, Jian Zhizhi felt even more confused.

Where did 'she' find these people?Who are they?

"Besides, our food is missing."

Before Jian Zhizhi could figure it out, Chen Dongfeng spoke again.

As soon as he said these words, the surroundings fell into deathly silence.

If the food is gone, what's the point of their trip?
Speaking of food, Jian Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief.

Jian Zhizhi looked around and spoke proactively:
"You first check these people on the ground, get them two sets of clothes to change into, and then deal with this place.

I'm not familiar with this place. Can any of you show me the way?Let’s get out of here first. "

As soon as Chen Dongfeng heard what Jian Zhizhi said, he knew that she still wanted to go to Surabaya City.

But when he thought of the next risk, Chen Dongfeng still frowned and said:
"Shopkeeper Jian, when you hired us before, you asked us to help you deliver food to Surabaya City. Now the food has disappeared, and our brothers have suffered some injuries. This trip..."

It would be okay if he just sneaked into Surabaya City secretly, but after already alerting the Lin Kingdom army, it was really dangerous to continue going to Surabaya City.

That was an army of 20 people. Even Su Qi, the general who defended the city, was under control. A confrontation between them would be like hitting a stone with an egg.

Jian Zhizhi's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Is this person not ready to continue cooperating?

She was unfamiliar with this place. If there was no one to guide her, she might not know how to get to Surabaya City.

Jian Zhizhi calmed down and straightened his expression before looking at Chen Dongfeng and said directly:

"You must have considered the risks when I hired you."

Surabaya City is trapped. Since these people dared to take 'her' order, they must have considered it, and the price they offered may not be low.

Now they tell her that their people are injured, either because they want to raise the price temporarily, or they are preparing to back down.

It would be fine if they just raised the price. Just wait until they get to Surabaya City and ask Su Qi to pay it.

If you want to quit, that's tricky.

Chen Dongfeng nodded, not intending to fool Jian Zhizhi, and said bluntly:
"That's true, and that's why we asked for 5000 taels.

But now we have not only alarmed the Linguo army, but we have also lost the food. Without the food, is it necessary for us to go to Surabaya City? "

The only one who escaped was the squad leader. He didn't even have time to escape, so how could he care about the food?

The remaining people from Lin State were lying here, and the food seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

When Chen Dongfeng said this, he took a deep look at Jian Zhizhi and blatantly tested:
"Shopkeeper Jian, don't you think it's strange that these grains have disappeared?
And you don't seem to care about the food. "

5000 two!
After knowing that eight cents can buy a pound of rice, Jian Zhizhi's heart twitched several times when he heard the price.

With so much money, how much rice does she need to sell to earn it back?
But fortunately, this person is not planning to raise the price now, but feels that the food is running out and wants to retreat.

Jian Zhizhi said: "Without the burden of food, you only need to send me to Surabaya City. You will not be short of money by then, and your trip will be easier, right?"

The backyard was in her mind. When she arrived in Surabaya City, was she still worried about not having food?

What's more, the food was not lost at all.When Chen Dongfeng heard what Jian Zhizhi said, he knew that she was determined to go to Surabaya City.

Without the burden of heavy food, it is indeed much easier to bring only one person into Surabaya City.

But that army...

Chen Dongfeng was still hesitant, "Normally speaking, after climbing over this hill, you can see Surabaya City, but there is a Lin Army guarding the front, and we may not be able to break through the Lin Army's defense line."

Jian Zhizhi said decisively: "Then take a detour."

If this road is blocked, then find another way. As big as a city is, there is always a place where you can sneak in.

Chen Dongfeng:......

Chen Dongfeng kindly reminded: "There are more Linguo troops in other places."

Jian Zhizhi frowned, "How many people are there in Linguo's army? How many people do you think they can dedicate to guard this place?"

Chen Dongfeng looked at Jian Zhizhi in surprise and explained:

"Lin State has sent 20 troops to our country. General Su has been guarding Surabaya City for many months. There are frequent exchanges between the two parties. It is currently unknown how many people will guard this place."

20? !

Jian Zhizhi's heart sank, the total number of people was a bit scary.

Does Jian Zhi know exactly how many people are left in Lin Kingdom, but she knows exactly how many people there are in Su Qi.

Su Qi said in the shop before that he was trapped in Surabaya City and that he only had [-] soldiers left. I don't know whether it was true or not, but even if he was hiding something, the number of people would definitely not be much higher.

This comparison made Jian Zhizhi feel his scalp numb.

At the same time, Jian Zhizhi also had doubts in his heart. When Lin State had already gained the upper hand by killing them, what was it doing around Surabaya City instead of continuing to attack other cities?
Just to trap Su Qi to death?

Or maybe they also suffered heavy losses during the fight with Su Qi and needed time to adjust and wait for food and fodder support.

A team of 20 people needs food that cannot be solved by just a few kilograms of kilograms.

Perhaps trapping Su Qi was just incidental and a bargaining chip for Lin Guo's negotiations.

After all, it took many months to capture the city of Surabaya. It is indeed not a good idea to continue attacking other cities. The right way is to take advantage of the advantage and quickly gain the advantage.

When Chen Dongfeng saw that Jian Zhizhi was silent, he said again:
"We entered the mountain in the middle of the night, and only an hour later we met people from the Lin Kingdom."

One can imagine what happens next.

Lin Guo would never want to see Su Qi receive support at this time.

Jian Zhizhi heard what he said and felt that the way forward was completely hopeless.

Jian Zhizhi: "Is there no support from the imperial court?"

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be.

Chen Dongfeng snorted lightly: "How do we know this? We haven't heard anything."

Jian Zhizhi felt chilled after hearing this.

No wonder Su Qi wants to go to the shop to place an order. The court may not be able to count on it.

Realizing this, Jian Zhizhi felt even more complicated and sighed secretly.

Jian Zhizhi: "Pack up your things, change into their clothes, and keep walking."
