Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 133: It’s fun to steal other people’s things

Even the military leader on the other side didn't know how to respond, and foolishly allowed the cavalry that approached to surround his troops.

"Put down your weapons, put your hands on your head, and squat where you are!"

The soldiers who surrounded them shouted.

Lin Qiaomei's two hundred archers drew their bows and arrows and aimed at the border troops.

The border troops were led by a general. He saw that this group of cavalrymen were wearing the uniforms of the provincial army and mixed with the equipment of the border troops.

"Hey, I'm from the grain-collecting team of the Dingzi Battalion of the Border Army. We're all family."

Under pressure, the other soldiers dropped their weapons and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Only this general still stood there, with his hands open, explaining non-stop.

Wei Zhen rode his horse forward and was about to ask a question.

But before he could open his mouth, a feather arrow flew out from the side and pierced the general's throat.

The general's eyes widened, and he fell backwards to the ground in shock.

Lin Feng glanced at Lin Qiaomei. This woman was too quick with her hands and too violent in her personality.

Even if you want to kill someone to establish your authority, you have to wait for my order.

But he couldn't say anything in front of everyone.

"Have these soldiers take off their armor, get on the carriages, and let's go."

Lin Feng had no choice but to ask his men to clean up the battlefield and leave as soon as possible.

The two hundred border soldiers who were guarding the carriage immediately became laborers driving the carriage, and followed the carriage with their heads lowered.

Wei Zhen rode his horse to Lin Feng's side, leaned close to him, and whispered.

"Lin Feng, aren't your men too presumptuous?"

"Oh, why are you so presumptuous?"

"What position does he hold? How can he kill someone without orders? How can he be so disrespectful?"

"Haha, General Wei was wrong. I was the one who signaled her to take action."

Lin Feng naturally had to hold on in front of outsiders.

Wei Zhen frowned and said, "No matter what, it's still a large army. Whether they can be masters or not, they are all soldiers. It's not easy."

"Alas, General Wei, as the old saying goes, a merciful army cannot be commanded. If you are soft-hearted, you might as well go home and farm."

"you..."

Wei Zhen was speechless. Could this be the case?

But now I am studying with Lin Feng, so no matter how much I dislike it, I have to endure it.

Besides, I had already said that everything would be under Lin Feng's command.

The team ran all night and was very tired.

When they reached a gentle slope, Lin Feng ordered the troops to dismount and set up camp to rest.

He urged his horse to come up to Lin Qiaomei and waved his hand to signal her to follow him.

The two men rode out of the camp and came to an uninhabited wilderness.

Seeing that Lin Feng was silent, Lin Qiaomei asked with a smile.

"Brother, did that arrow make you unhappy?"

Lin Feng felt that this woman was quite smart and knew what she was thinking.

He turned his head and stared at her small and delicate face, wondering how to educate her without being too harsh.

"Brother, you don't need to tell me. You taught me that when facing an enemy, I only give orders once. If they don't obey, I kill them."

"But you have to listen to my instructions, right?"

"I know what you're thinking."

"That's two different things. You're already doing it before I even give the order..."

"Oh, I know I was wrong. I'm sorry, brother."

Lin Feng was helpless. He should not have brought her out if he had known.

"Lin Qiaomei, this is a battlefield. If your subordinates did what you wanted without your consent, what would you think?"

"Hmm~ I think this subordinate is very smart."

Lin Feng's face darkened: "Lin Qiaomei, if something like this happens again, I will have no choice but to ask you to go back and defend the city."

He knew that it was useless to reason with Lin Qiaomei.

Lin Qiaomei immediately raised a hand.

"I swear to God, I will never do it again. Without your order, I won't move even if I'm beaten to death."

Lin Feng's tone softened.

"Last time, Lao Hu blocked six arrows for you. Fortunately, Lao Hu didn't die. Otherwise, would you feel guilty for the rest of your life?"

Lin Qiaomei said unconvincedly, "I'm very grateful that Lao Hu took the bullet for me, but he should have charged forward. He kept making excuses and was unmanly."

"Hu Jincai is a veteran soldier. His judgment on the battlefield is much more accurate than yours. A war cannot be won by sheer momentum alone."

"Those Tartars just charge headfirst, and they're unstoppable."

Lin Feng knew that she had a stubborn temper and didn't know how to preach to her.

The two of them just stood there in the field, staring blankly at the fields in the distance.

After a while, Lin Qiaomei spoke in a soft voice.

"Brother, I'm a bandit. You taught me many things, and I just followed your lead. But now it doesn't work. I don't know what to do."

Lin Feng pondered for a moment.

"Qiaomei, on the battlefield, there can only be one commander. When he issues an order, even if you know it's wrong, you must still execute it. Only in this way can the commander's combat intent be carried out and the combat plan be implemented effectively."

"Brother, but he is wrong."

"If you were in command, would you want your subordinates to follow your orders or question them?"

"Of course you follow my orders."

"Yes, just like today, you shot the other person to death without getting my order. In fact, you were questioning me."

"I didn't question you, I just thought that's how you taught me..."

Lin Feng interrupted her defense.

"The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly. What if I ask you to persuade the enemy to surrender?"

"But..."

"But you guessed what I meant wrong."

Lin Qiaomei stared at Lin Feng without moving her eyes for a long time.

It took a long time before he lowered his head.

"Brother, I've figured it out. I was really wrong."

"Well, remember, from now on, you are not allowed to move without orders."

"I understand, bro."

"Go back."

Lin Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was not easy to persuade Lin Qiaomei and make her sincerely admit her mistake.

But Lin Qiaomei reached out and grabbed his reins.

"Brother, how long have you not been with me?"

Looking at her dark eyes, there was a flash of desire.

Lin Feng nodded: "Qiaomei, when the war is over, I will marry you."

Lin Qiaomei's eyes widened instantly.

"Brother, how is that possible? I am a widow. I... just ask you to give me something to eat, so that my life will not be in vain."

Lin Feng patted her little hand: "Brother is not someone else, heroes don't ask where they came from, don't worry."

Tears suddenly welled up in Lin Qiaomei's eyes.

"No one has ever treated me as a serious woman, only my brother..."

"Stop, this is not the time for us to express our feelings. It's time to go."

"Ah."

Lin Qiaomei wiped away her tears and looked up at Lin Feng.

"Brother, I can die for you, just say the word."

Lin Feng had already circled his horse and was walking back, raising his hand and waving.

"With me here, no one dares to let you die."

Lin Qiaomei rolled her eyes at him from behind, but her tears couldn't be controlled and flowed out again.

After counting, it was found that of the ten carts of food for the border troops, only three were food, and the other seven carts were loaded with firewood and weeds.

This is far from what General Qin asked for.

Lin Feng called Qin Fang over.

"General Qin, take these three carts of food to the border town first and report to the general. The rest will follow."

Qin Fang was reluctant to carry out this task and stood there hesitating.

"Is something wrong?"

Lin Feng saw that he seemed to be itchy all over and was hesitant.

"General, can you send someone who is familiar with the route to deliver the food? I want to follow you to grab the food."

Lin Feng smiled.

"Isn't it nice to rob other people's food?"

Qin Fang nodded vigorously.

"It's up to you, just make sure the food is delivered to me."

"Understood, General, I'll make sure it's delivered!"

Qin Fang answered loudly.

Lin Feng was about to laugh and curse when suddenly a war horse came running from a distance.

It was Wei Bao's cavalry, seven or eight war horses galloping towards them.

"Report, General, eighty miles to the southeast, there are four Tartar grain carts and fifteen Tartar cavalry."

"Is there any food in the car?"

"Replying to the General, I didn't dare to get close."

Lin Feng waved his hand and said, "Qin Fang, take your team and go and rob them first. Don't let a single Tartar escape."

Qin Fang cupped his hands: "Yes, General!"

He turned around, waved to his team, and shouted loudly.

"Everyone gather and mount your horses immediately!"
