Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 396
At this time, the woman was looking at Zhao Ying with a flushed face, looking at a loss.A pair of watery eyes were stained with panic, like a frightened deer.Zhao Ying was a little embarrassed, he came back to his senses, calmed down, and continued to apply medicine to the woman in front of him with a slightly sullen face.

"Don't be afraid." Zhao Ying's voice was low, but his tone was very gentle.The woman finally stopped dodging when she heard the words, and pressed her lips tightly to endure the pain in her shoulder.

Because it was a woman, Zhao Ying deliberately relaxed his movements, but he could still feel the woman's trembling. After finally taking the medicine, Zhao Ying heaved a sigh of relief, and tore off a piece of cloth on his clean underwear Wrapped around the woman's wound, and then straightened her clothes.

"Thank you." The woman lowered her head and her voice was like a mosquito.

"Why are you here?"

"I just want to do something, I'm sorry, I caused you trouble." The woman raised her head and glanced at Zhao Ying, then quickly lowered her head, all the anger in Zhao Ying's heart disappeared with just one glance, the woman looked very happy. The crying look made it difficult for him to say anything serious.

"Leave the matter here to us men. You go back to recuperate first. There are many wounded on the mountain. It's good to take care of them after you recover from your injuries." Zhao Ying said warmly.

The woman nodded vigorously, she suddenly raised her head and moved her lips slightly, but turned around and ran away without saying anything.

Zhao Ying, who was far away in Ling'an, didn't know that the capital was already boiling.It turned out that when he first arrived in Ling'an, the news of Xiao Lin's victory over Qi's army spread back to Zhao's capital.

Rewinding the time to [-] years ago, Xiao Lin paced back and forth in the tent.Although Qi Jun has been launching raids in recent days, the scale is much smaller than before, Xiao Lin vaguely felt that something big was about to happen.

"General, I just got the news from the spies that the second prince of the Qi Kingdom seems to be picking elite soldiers, so I'm afraid he will do something." The general at the side said in a deep voice.

Xiao Lin nodded. After this period of contact, he has a very thorough understanding of the second prince. He has almost been imitating the tactics in the book of war, without considering the actual situation at all. Xiao Lin is extremely disdainful of such a general. , but he never let down his vigilance.

Although the two princes were talking about war on paper, Li Shang was rich in experience. Although he had used tricks to separate the two of them, Qi Jun's strength should not be underestimated.

"Pass down the order to closely monitor Qi Jun's every move, and strengthen the camp's defenses, especially on the back mountain. If Qi Jun dares to sneak attack, we will come and catch the turtle." Xiao Lin's eyes were deep, and he looked at the map in front of him. He could vaguely guess the second prince's plan in his mind.

Since they selected elite soldiers, they would not directly lead the army to go to war. It would definitely be a surprise attack on Zhao Jun. Zhao Jun was located in a high and low position. The mountain stream in front of him was a natural barrier, but there was a mountain road leading directly to the barracks behind.

Although the mountain road is not easy to walk, if the sneak attack from there is successful, Zhao Jun's situation will become very bad, as if a sharp sword has been inserted into Zhao Jun's heart.

So if he is the second prince, he will definitely take Zhao Ying from there.

"The general means that the second prince will attack again?"

Xiao Lin nodded, and said in a deep voice: "That's right, this second prince has no experience in leading troops, but he won the first sneak attack, he will definitely rely on such a strategy, the sneak attack at night a few days ago is the best prove."

"But he didn't succeed that time." The general said hesitantly.

"Yes, he failed to attack our army from the front at night last time, so this time it is very likely to launch a surprise attack from the back mountain, and it must be a fatal blow. This is his last chance." The generals nodded.

"According to the general, when will the Qi army launch an attack?"

Xiao Lin lowered his eyebrows and said in thought: "Five days at most, at least three days, so that the soldiers can rest well and get ready in three days."

The generals all said yes.On the other side, in Qi Jun's barracks, the second prince had just finished his plan to attack Zhao Jun at night, and it was almost the same as Xiao Lin's guess.

The generals in the battalion were speechless after hearing the second prince's plan.Although the mountain road leads directly to Zhao Jun's camp, it is extremely rugged, and the number of people who can pass is very small. If you take ten thousand steps back, even if the second prince's carefully selected ten thousand soldiers can climb that path, wait After they went up, they had almost no strength, and they might not even be able to hold the knife.

Wouldn't it be that the sheep will enter the tiger's mouth?A few days ago, those [-] elite soldiers were destined to die.And that Xiao Lin has extremely rich combat experience, how can the second prince ignore him if he can think of it?I'm afraid the deployment has already been made at this time, and we are just waiting for Qi Jun to send him to the door.

The generals looked at each other, and they could all see the doubts and dissatisfaction on each other's faces, but none of them dared to speak out against it.

At this time, the second prince was immersed in his plan and couldn't extricate himself. In his eyes, the plan was so perfect that there was no flaw. He could even imagine Zhao Jun's terrified look when his elite soldiers attacked Zhao Jun's barracks. At that time, he will personally lead the army to launch an attack from the front, catching Xiao Lin by surprise. Thinking of this, he showed a very smug expression on his face.

"If everyone has no objection, then we will launch an attack in four days." The second prince was full of ambition, with a wild light shining in his eyes.

"Well, do you want to discuss this important matter with Mr. Li?" Finally a lieutenant couldn't help but opened his mouth. He looked at the second prince's gradually gloomy face and lowered his head in panic.

"I hope you can understand that I am the coach at this time. Does the coach need to discuss with others when making a decision?" The second prince shouted loudly, his ambition was clearly revealed.

Of course I need it!All the soldiers roared silently in their hearts, which domineering coach have you ever seen end well!But due to the identity of the second prince, they had no choice but to remain silent.However, the second prince interpreted everyone's silent protest as approval. He showed a satisfied smile and waved everyone to disperse to prepare.

At this time, Li Shang was leisurely looking at the book of war in the barracks. Since the second prince wanted to take power, he let him take charge. Anyway, this matter will only fall on the second prince in the end.At this moment, an angry general came in, told Li Shang the decision made by the second prince, and advised Li Shang to stop the second prince.

"God bless me Daqi!" Li Shang sighed after hearing this, his eyes full of helplessness.He really wanted to stop the second prince, but no matter what he said now, the second prince would definitely not listen.

Right now, I have to write a note to the emperor immediately, but after the emperor's instructions come down, I am afraid that the Qi country has already lost this battle, but at this time there is no other way but to minimize the loss.

Li Shang made up his mind and immediately sent a letter to the emperor.
