Chapter 132 The North will never be forgotten
Under the night, the stars are quiet.
Lin En looked up and saw a bright red light lit in the city blocks in the distance. When he saw the fire spreading, he knew it was a very powerful fire.
What did the skinny monkey burn? It dyed the sky in Baigang City into orange.
When I saw the fire burning, it was still not extinguished in the middle of the night.
Lin En uttered, then turned his head and tucked into the tent.
"The Baigang people are now impatient. If they don't fight, they won't even be able to tell who is the real enemy within them."
I can have a good sleep today, and I hope I can do it tomorrow too.
In the morning, Lin En didn't see Hanniu, so he knew that this guy was going to hunt with the whistle cavalry again.
Yesterday he caught a lot of prey, and even the heads were piled together to build a low wall.
Lynn climbed up a tall arrow tower, the tallest in the main camp, and was specially built for Lynn to observe the situation of the battle, command and dispatch.
The arrow tower was covered with thick wooden boards, leaving only a few circular holes on all sides for crossbowmen to shoot.
Lynn just started observing.
Just watched Hanniu and his whistle cavalry run from afar facing the newborn sun. Just look at the fiery red skinned flag behind him, and he understands that Hanniu is kicking the iron plate this time and the hunter is going to be driven back to the camp by the prey.
Soon, another thin figure appeared at the other end of the distance. He rode a horse very fast, as if he was escaping his life again.
As it is, behind the thin figure, there is also a cavalry holding a blue-green flag chasing.
The thin figure was getting closer and closer, and Lynn quickly recognized the familiar figure, which was the elite assassin Sterling who was sent to perform a mission in Baigang City last night.
Fortunately, the brothers in distress seem to have good abilities to escape. They were the first to enter the alert range of the battalion's long bow archer than the pursuers.
The enemy was stopped by several arrows shot from the arrow tower and tied the reins one after another.
Lynn noticed that the two groups of cavalry chasing were just strangled to the reins and stopped, but they had no intention of turning their heads and leaving.
Lin Neng frowned and observed for a while, but found nothing unusual.
Soon, the Hanniu Guftawo and the Skinny Monkey Stirling who returned to the camp, asked for a meeting under the arrow tower.
"Why are your escape positions so similar?" Lin Neng walked down from the arrow tower, wrapped his hands around his chest, and looked at the two of them with a smile.
The naive niu smiled silly, but the thin monkey blushed when she heard this.
"Tell me, why did you make me look so embarrassed?"
"The skinned army has pulled out the camp!"
"The army of Baigang has left the city!"
The two of them said in unison.
Outside Baigang City, except for these Kobayashi hills, there are almost all large plains without any obstacles.
When the left whistle cavalry returned to the camp one after another.
Lin En soon learned that the skinned man and the Baigang army were rushing towards his camp. Faced with the joint attack of these two families, Lin En almost lost patience.
Since we are here, we must let the enemy advance but not retreat.
The camp of 10,000 or 20,000 troops was on the hill to the left of Linen, where the camps were drawn to alarm the birds that had been flying within a few miles.
This battle was a test for Lynn's army, and it was also a huge test for Lynn himself.
Victory is only to determine the ownership of the king of the Northern Territory, and annihilation can completely bring the Northern Territory into control.
Since the skinned man made up his mind to attack, Lin En naturally waited to give him a big surprise.
Under Lin En's strict order, the camp army performed its own duties, and each team must strictly enter the defensive area divided in advance.
All the light cavalry left the camp, bypassed the wilderness outside Baigang City, and pulled the enemy's attention to both ends.
All the heavy cavalry hid in the dense forest, where they put on armor for the five thousand war horses they hid.
The military situation in front of the formation was like snowflakes and entered the Central Army camp from the camp.
Based on the summary information, Lynn worked hard to make the final judgment.
A rapid sound of footsteps rang outside the camp.
"Sir, the messenger from Baigang is asking for advice."
Lin En raised his head and said, since the war is about to start, why are you still so empty?
"Let him in."
The visitor was Sir Wendel Mandalay, the second son of Count Weyman Mandalay, and also attended the Bloody Wedding, but he was still alive. It is obvious that the Frey family spared his life at that time, which was related to his elder brother Sir Veris Mandalay and Luce Bolton's participation in the Bloody Wedding Planning.
Lynn looked up at the round, bald guy with a big beard.
I heard that this person attaches great importance to his honor, but Lynn didn't see it much.
Lynn looked at him and spoke first: "Wandel Mandalay, I heard that Baigang City is now the head of your elder brother Sir Verris. In just a few days, your father retreated from the throne of Earl and the city lord. The story must be very exciting."
Wendel Mandalay saw Lynn looking at him, and also looked up at Lynn.
He bypassed Lynn's words and said in a rough voice: "Earl Lynn, someone set fire to the ordnance warehouse and granary in the city last night in Baigang City. Our cavalry chased the arsonist and saw him fleeing into your camp."
Lynn turned to look at the skinny monkey Sterling beside him, "Monkey, have you heard of this?"
The thin monkey looked cold, "Sir, I haven't heard of any arsonist entering the camp in the morning. The adult's camp is as solid as a soup, and even mosquitoes cannot fly in."
Lynn nodded, slapped a mosquito that dared to suck blood on the back of his hand, and said to Wendel seriously: "Sir, you heard it too, in fact you may have misunderstood."
The rough performances of Lin En and his servants can easily anger a person who thinks he has a sense of honor.
Sir Wendell Mandalay blushed, his hands clenched into clenched fists and glared at Lynn.
"My Count, if you lose your honor, you will lose your life."
Lynn nodded.
"Acknowledge! As a vassal, he followed Fengjun to attend the wedding and finally watched Fengjun die. Such a person is not worthy of honor."
Sir Wendell Mandalay had a resentful face when he heard this. At this moment, he wanted to scream but couldn't. He felt his heart hurt so hard that his body twitched uncontrollably, his face turned purple, as if he had been choked by someone.
After a moment, he stared at Lynn and slowly said, "So, Lord Earl doesn't expect the White Harbor army to help you fight back the Borton army?"
Lynn looked at him suspiciously.
"Your father Manwei sent a messenger a few days ago, asking me to help him fight back the Botton army and lift the siege of Baigang. Why did you help me fight back the skinned man again in a blink of an eye? Could it be that these were what your brother, the 'parent killer', told you?
He must be a glorious person who kills your father to the high position and becomes the city lord, right?"
Wendel was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood by Lynn's constant sarcasm.
He stammered for a few times, not knowing how to answer.
His brother, Viris Mandalay, gave him the task of inserting a thousand spearmen in Baigang City into Lynn's camp, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack Lynn's defense after the war began.
Wendel had already thought about the negotiation plan before coming.
First, he used the arson incident last night to force Lin En to show his minimum guilt, and then he showed his due generosity and inserted the army into the air.
However, now it seems that Lynn has seen through everything and knows that the Mandalay family and the Borton family have reached an alliance in Baigang.
A feeling of powerlessness surged in Wendel's heart, and he just wanted to escape from here at this moment.
He wanted to leave, but Lynn didn't plan to let him go like this.
Lynn stood up from the main seat of the tent, sneering with a sarcasm on his lips, and said sternly: "It's one thing to sneak attack the enemy troops that are about to start a war. But it's another thing to attack the troops that have already started a war from behind! You know what you want to do."
Lynn's harsh questioning made Wendel lose his temper.
Lynn took out the relics of the young wolf lord Robb, whom he obtained in Twins, and threw them in front of him.
"You are worthy of me to talk about honor! Borton killed Robb Stark with his own hands, and your Mandalay family is an accomplice. I tell you... If the White Harbor army did not attack the Borton army during wartime as agreed between us, I will let the White Harbor people know what it means - the North will never be forgotten!"
"Now, get out of me right away."
