Chapter 247: Receive the Imperial Order in 3 Days

Zhao Shuo quickly stood up: "I'll go take a look, he must be here to connect with us."

After a while, Zhao Shuo walked in and took out a letter bag with a confused look on his face.

"Brother, they only sent me a letter, saying it was an official letter."

Bai Jing reached out to take it, opened the envelope and took a look.

"Brother, something's wrong."

Lin Feng frowned and asked, "What's the problem?"

His hands were busy eating, so he didn't take the letter and just asked casually.

"You are required to go to the Zhenxi Protectorate capital within three days to receive the order."

"Ok?"

Lin Feng stopped chewing and looked up at Bai Jing.

Bai Jing also looked at him and nodded affirmatively.

Zhao Shuo reached out and snatched the letter, muttering as he read it.

"How is this possible? What's wrong with them?"

But after reading the letter, he nodded at Lin Feng with a confused look on his face.

"Brother, that old fellow Su Qian asked you to go to the capital to receive the imperial edict."

Lin Feng chewed the food in his mouth slowly and fell into deep thought.

Bai Jing said anxiously: "Brother, there must be something wrong, you can't go to the capital city."

"No way, Su Qian is too bold."

Zhao Shuo also couldn't understand this operation.

Lin Feng thought for a while.

"If I don't go to the capital, will they treat it as a voluntary abandonment?"

Zhao Shuo nodded: "Well, if Big Brother doesn't go to receive the order, I'm afraid this matter will be abandoned."

"We are all ready, except for the imperial edict."

Bai Jing said helplessly.

The three of them were silent for a moment.

Zhao Shuo stood up and said, "Brother, I will go to the capital to find the people from the palace and ask them to come to our castle."

Lin Feng shook his head: "I'm afraid you can't reach the capital."

"Ah, what do you say?"

Lin Feng threw the dry food in his hand into the bowl.

"How can they let you step into the pit they dug?"

"Who wants to deal with us?"

Lin Feng smiled bitterly: "I guess it's not just one family that's thinking about this."

"Then we won't go."

Zhao Shuo said unconvinced.

Bai Jing looked anxious: "But, we really need this knighting ceremony here."

Lin Feng tapped his fingers on the table and thought for a moment.

"I have to go, of course. It's just a matter of how to go."

Zhao Shuo immediately said, "Let's take two thousand elite cavalry and see who dares to make a move."

Lin Feng shook his head: "I'm afraid the Tartars will also have to get involved."

"Then take 5,000 and fight the Tartars in the wild to see who is stronger."

"With the current state of our Qingshui Army, a force of one to two thousand men should be able to charge the Tartars in the open field, but a large force is still inferior."

Bai Jing pondered and asked, "Brother, are they going to openly unite with the Tartars?"

Zhao Shuo was shocked and asked, "How dare they?"

Lin Feng sneered: "They have already done this. For their own interests, there is nothing they dare not do."

"I also wrote a letter to my father to tell him about them."

"It's useless. Distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. The imperial court is too far away to reach."

The three of them fell silent, and for a moment the room was filled with silence.

Lin Feng had no appetite. He stood up and walked to the huge sand table, lowering his head to look at the terrain carefully.

If I only bring the guards to the provincial capital.

He would be attacked from three sides: the Tatar army, the border army, and the provincial capital army.

If you bring a large group of people with you, the Tatars will also send a large number of troops accordingly and force you to fight in the field.

At the same time, there is a lack of garrison troops in the Qingshui area.

The border troops will take the opportunity to cause trouble.

If forced by both sides, I will be left homeless.

The Tartars and the border troops were eager for him to do so. As long as they could get some clean water, they could rescue Nalan, Song Qi, Qiao Jun and others.

Lin Feng was wondering whether he should make a secret trip to the provincial capital.

The danger is greater, but I am more agile and flexible. In such an open area, it is very difficult for the other party to find me.

This will be a very dangerous journey.

But it is a dangerous journey that must be taken.

Lin Feng did not need to arrange any work, as Wang Qian was still in charge of external affairs, while Bai Jing was in charge of the work inside the castle.

This time, Lin Feng decided to take along his own 200 elite cavalry guards.

Bring Lin Qiaomei's long-range attack troops with you.

Of course, they carefully selected 200 elite cavalrymen who were capable of both long-range and close combat.

Since he had decided to go to the provincial capital in person, Lin Feng no longer hesitated. That night, he led a group of 400 guards and sneaked out of the castle through the secret passage.

For night marches, no other unit can match it.

Lin Feng's team usually has this training.

Four hundred elite cavalrymen, led by Wei Bao's cavalry, took advantage of the night and headed straight towards the provincial capital.

The news that Lin Feng was going to the provincial capital to receive the imperial edict had already reached the Tartar camp.

Of course, the border troops also received the tip-off.

Both sides sent out countless scouts to wander around Lingdouzi Castle.

The cavalry of the border army and the cavalry of the Tatars coincidentally did not interfere with each other.

They each did their own work, and even if they met in the wilderness, they would turn around without saying a word and go their separate ways.

At present, their biggest enemy has become Lin Feng and his Qingshui Army.

Although Lin Feng's army belongs to the government army series.

However, in terms of equipment and clothing, they were different from the original government army.

The border troops and the Tatars are very familiar with this and can tell it apart at a glance.

Lin Feng's army seemed to be independent of other military branches in Zhenxi, becoming a force independent of other armies.

At this time, Lin Feng's four hundred elite cavalry were galloping in the wilderness under the night.

During this period, we also encountered several groups of rangers camping in the wild.

Lin Feng ordered that whether they were Tartars or border troops, they must all be destroyed and the news must not be leaked out.

The capital of Zhenxi Protectorate is about six or seven hundred miles away from Lingdouzi Castle.

Theoretically, if the war horses galloped, they could arrive there in three days.

The official letter from General Su also gave three days, so that Lin Feng did not have too much time to think.

However, Lin Feng understood that they could not go in a straight line.

This route will definitely not be safe, so we must take a detour.

Wei Bao's cavalry troops conducted reconnaissance and control of an area more than 300 miles around the Qingshui area.

After walking three hundred miles, the future was also uncertain.

If you are not familiar with the road, you can't travel at night.

On the second night, Lin Feng found a dilapidated village and ordered his troops to camp there.

The journey was relatively smooth, lasting one day and one night, and the four hundred elite cavalrymen covered more than two hundred miles.

We are exhausted and need to rest.

People can still continue to persevere, but the warhorse will be useless if it continues to run.

Lin Feng, Wei Bao and Lin Qiaomei got together to discuss the next route.

For example, the seat of the Zhenxi Protectorate should be much larger than the border town.

Four city gates should be a must.

Normally, if their cavalry came from the northwest, they would either enter through the west gate or choose the north gate.

Lin Feng felt that they should do the opposite and go around to the South Gate.

Just go through the main gate of the city.

Inside the city of Zhenxi Protectorate.

General Du Lisheng of the Zhen Army was giving instructions to a general in person.

This general named Dou Weidong has followed Du Lisheng for some years and is one of his confidants.

Dou Weidong is 32 years old this year and has already held the rank of General Zhenglu.

Du Lisheng invited him to his mansion this time and asked him to lead 500 men and set up a checkpoint 30 miles outside the south gate of the city.

Stop everyone entering the city.

Dou Weidong was asked to delay Lin Feng's entry into the city to two days later.

In fact, Du Lisheng had sent troops around the city.

Dou Weidong is just one of the teams.

It is also the team least likely to be used.

Because he thought that it was impossible for Lin Feng to take a long detour and go through the south gate of the city.
