Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 115 Fire in the Backyard
The cold moon hangs in the sky, and in the wilderness outside Donghuang Town, the camp of the Dynasty Army is brightly lit, and the patrol team makes clanking noises as they pass by.

The defense line in Donghuang Town was also strengthened again. With the return of Marshal Lin Nuoyan, it not only added a lot of combat power to the defenders, but also greatly improved the morale of the defenders.

A few days ago, under the escort of Xia Ge's Third Banner Regiment, Lin Nuoyan had arrived ten miles away from Donghuang Town to hide, but he had to stop in the face of the powerful Dynasty army blocking his way back to the north.

As the battle intensified, seeing that Donghuang Town was about to fall, Lin Nuoyan knew the importance of Donghuang Town to Mucheng, so he took the risk and ventured closer to this side. Fortunately, Xia Ge led a team to attract the enemy, and he was able to Enter Donghuang Town smoothly.

Lin Nuoyan's more than 5000 Xingtu soldiers have taken over the defense of Donghuang Town. Lin Chuan's troops, who had fought bloody battles for several days, could finally withdraw to rest. However, out of the 800 soldiers that day, less than [-] survived the city wall.

In the temporary headquarters of Donghuang Town, Lin Nuoyan, on behalf of the Commander-in-Chief of the Xingtu Army, highly praised the unrelenting Lin Chuanbu. For these penniless Xingtu soldiers, there is nothing more important than being recognized by the commander up.

Although Lin Nuoyan arrived in Donghuang Town, facing the pressure of the more than [-] dynasty troops outside the town, the Xingtu soldiers led by Lin Nuoyan were still in vain, and Donghuang Town's defense line was still in jeopardy.

"Immediately send someone to send a request for help to the Carton Consul. I need to see reinforcements." Lin Nuoyan ordered the adjutant Robben as soon as he sat down.

Lin Chuan took a step forward: "Uncle Lin, there's no need. We have asked for help more than ten times in a row in the past few days, and the messengers are like nothing, and there is no news."

Lin Nuoyan's face darkened, and he said angrily, "Has Caton rebelled?"

As soon as Lin Nuoyan said this, dozens of officers in the entire command headquarters were afraid to answer and remained silent. This was a guess among the high-level officials, and if they were not careful, they would end up dead.

Lin Nuoyan became the commander-in-chief because he held a large army, and Caton, who was also a powerful figure in the Xingtu army, could only be squeezed out of the army system and served as the consul in charge of civil affairs.

Now that Lin Nuoyan was defeated on the front line and his whereabouts were unknown, Caton seemed to have become the supreme commander of Mucheng. He still had tens of thousands of troops stationed in various places in his hands, and he became the most powerful person. No wonder Lin Nuoyan was suspicious.

The officers who were brought out by Caton even showed fear on their faces, for fear that the angry Lin Nuoyan would take them under the knife.

Lin Chuan stepped forward: "Uncle Lin, things may not be as you imagined..."

Lin Nuoyan was still angry, but he calmed down a bit, and waved his hands in Lin Chuan's face: "Tell me."

"I know the character of Carton Consul, and he is not a stupid person. He will not understand the truth that there will be no eggs under the nest, so I guess there may be other changes."

Lin Nuoyan, who had calmed down, also regained his senses at this moment, raised his head and asked, "What evidence can you prove that Caton did not rebel? You must know that you have stood firm for several days, and Mucheng has not sent a single soldier." He obviously still does not believe Lin Chuan If he said that, he already had a preconceived idea in his heart and decided that Caton was rebellious.

As a child of the Lin family, Lin Chuan is naturally not as timid as other officers, "Uncle Lin, the No.20 Five Banners Battalion that came for reinforcements two days ago is less than [-] miles away from us, and has been with us all the time. There was contact, but for some unknown reason, they suddenly stopped on the spot and stopped moving forward, and they sent a guard post to our side, and our scouts could not approach."

"At that time, we were fighting tight here, so we didn't send anyone to inquire. It's very weird to think about it now."

Lin Nuoyan was thoughtful: "Oh? Is there such a thing?"

"Most of the people we stayed in the rear guarded were subordinate rebels. Originally, there were military discipline troops stationed in Mucheng. They didn't dare to make mistakes. Now the discipline troops led by the disciples have arrived at our place. I wonder if it is..." Lin Chuan guessed.

Hearing this, all the officers in the headquarters took a deep breath. If this is the case, then it is not a matter of the Carton Consul seizing power, but an internal rebellion. The Caton Consul may have already encountered persecution , It can also explain why the military discipline troops led by Liu Zichen entered Donghuang Town, but other reinforcements were delayed.

After all, Lin Nuoyan was a person who had seen the big scene, without the slightest panic on his face, and told Lin Chuan: "We have no way of knowing whether it is Caton's rebellion or the rebellion of the subordinate rebel army. Now I order you to lead the way Go back, figure out the situation, I will give you three days, within three days I need to know exactly what happened, and, I hope to bring back reinforcements—”

Lin Chuan knew that it was an extremely critical moment. Although it was dangerous to go, he did not refuse, and replied loudly with his right fist on his chest: "The task must be completed!"

After speaking, Lin Chuan turned around and left the headquarters in great strides under the gaze of everyone, preparing to return to Mucheng.

After a while, Lin Chuan had already walked out of the temporary headquarters, and the guard Thunderstorm was waiting outside.

"Thunderstorm, let the brothers gather and leave in 10 minutes."

"Yes, sir." Thunderstorm left in a hurry without asking why.

After Lin Chuan ordered the thunderstorm, he went straight to his residence.

"You're back." Seeing Lin Chuan coming back, Lan Yu rushed to greet him, reaching out to help him take off his cloak.

Lin Chuan stopped Lan Yu, stretched out his hand to hold her little hand and said, "I'll go out to perform tasks later, I don't worry about you, come back and have a look."

Lan Yu raised his head and asked dejectedly, "Are you going to fight in the Dynasty Army again?"

Lin Chuan shook his head with a smile, stretched out his hand and scratched Lan Yu's nose, "I'm returning to Mucheng, and I have some things to deal with."

"Is there any danger?" Lan Yu asked worriedly.

"No, just some small things." Lin Chuan replied with a smile, but Lan Yu still saw from his eyes that things were not as easy as he said.

Lan Yu gave Lin Chuan a hug, and tears welled up in his eyes: "I'll wait for you to come back."

After a long period of perseverance, Lan Yu's inner line of defense has been lost to Lin Chuan. Now that Lin Chuan and Lan Yu have already ordered their own life, seeing their lover is about to leave, they are naturally reluctant to part with each other.

"Wait a minute" Lan Yu broke away from Lin Chuan's embrace, turned around and ran back into the house.

Soon Lan Yu came out with a purse embroidered with mandarin ducks in his hand, "I showed it myself, it will keep you safe."

Looking at the two crooked mandarin ducks on the purse, Lin Chuan felt amused when he thought that Lan Yu, who always liked to dance with spears and sticks, suddenly learned embroidery.

Lan Yu punched Lin Chuan in the chest angrily: "Don't laugh, I wanted to show off better, but I just can't embroider well..."

"It's very beautiful, I accept it, remember to wait for me when I come back." Lin Chuan kissed some of Lan Yu's forehead and asked.

"En." Lan Yu nodded gently, watched Lin Chuan turn around, and strode down the steps.

At the foot of the steps, a group of cavalry was already waiting there. Thunderstorm led the horse and handed the reins to Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan got on his horse and waved to Lan Yu, "Go back."

"I'll wait for you to come back—" Lan Yu said loudly.

"Let's go!" Lin Chuan put his legs between the horse's belly, and with the sound of the horse's hooves, he rushed into the darkness first, followed by a group of cavalry behind him, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Looking in the direction of Lin Chuan's departure, Lan Yu stood on the steps, unwilling to leave for a long time.

"Miss, it's cold outside, let's go back." The one-armed veteran who was in charge of taking care of Lan Yu said.
