Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 259 Blocking 4 Gates

"Hey, brother, I didn't expect that Du Lisheng is so rich that he can rival a country."

"Hey, you can use words now?"

"Tsk, I also read and learn words all day long, okay?"

The two of them calmed down from their surprise, and it made sense when they thought about it carefully.

As the general of the provincial army, although Du Lisheng's rank was lower than Su Qian and Qin Zhong, his status was noble.

Relying on his connections in the palace, all the officials in the city tried to curry favor with him.

For officials who want to move up the social ladder, Du Lisheng is the first choice.

Lin Qiaomei gave a thumbs up.

"Brother, you are truly a god. You have planned everything perfectly."

Lin Feng waved his hand: "It's just luck. I didn't know he was so rich."

He breathed a sigh of relief.

This money can solve the immediate problem and there will be a lot left over.

Such a large amount of funds will definitely play a huge role in promoting the economic development of Qingshui area.

"Hide well, hide well. Go to the city gate immediately and build up defenses to prevent Du Lisheng from making desperate moves."

"Don't worry, brother. Even if he attacks the city with 10,000 troops, I can hold it for a day or two."

Lin Feng frowned and thought for a while.

"Looks like we have to speed up our plans. If Du Lisheng goes all out, we'll have to get away quickly."

Zhao Shuo also came into the room, his expression indifferent to the room full of gold, silver and treasures.

I'm used to seeing these things and think it's normal for a royal relative to have such wealth.

However, Lin Feng felt that he had stirred up a hornet's nest this time.

Sure enough, Du Lisheng received a report from his family that their home had been robbed and they suffered heavy losses.

He immediately understood what was going on.

Because, in all the years he has been in the capital, he has never been robbed or stolen.

Even if he was not in the capital, no one dared to cause trouble at his house.

As soon as Lin Feng arrived, the house was robbed, who else could it be?

He didn't expect that Lin Feng was such a ruthless person, not only bold but also unconventional in his methods.

Once you offend him, there will be endless revenge.

Ever since the two of them had formed a feud, although he had been planning to deal with him, he had not been able to do anything to him before he received such a brutal blow.

A surge of anger burned from the soles of my feet to my forehead.

No matter how patient Du Lisheng was, he could not tolerate his home being robbed.

I have been plundering for so many years, and now it was robbed in one night, it's like my life was robbed.

"Come here, gather five thousand men and follow me into the city."

The herald immediately went out to deliver the message.

The assembly horn sounded in the government army camp.

The teams that were called out quickly gathered at the training ground.

There were rows of soldiers, shouting and neighing horses, and the sound of weapons and armor clashing.

Lin Qiaomei was already standing on the top of the city wall and ordered the drawbridge to be raised and the city gate to be closed.

No one is allowed to enter or leave.

Three hundred soldiers were ready for battle.

Her two hundred personal soldiers, armed with bows, lined up on the city wall.

The team was led by Lin Qiaomei's younger sister, who had just been promoted to a general.

Lin Feng left behind twenty guards, and the others were sent to Lin Qiaomei.

Facing such a big city, an army of less than 400 people seemed very weak.

The city has four gates. In addition to the east gate facing the city army camp, which is the focus of defense, each of the other gates has a team of thirty people stationed.

There are also two teams of thirty people providing mobile defense within the city.

Su Qian also received news that the Du Mansion had been robbed.

His heart skipped a beat, knowing something bad was about to happen.

The stability that has been maintained for a few days is probably about to be broken.

Su Qian immediately summoned Chen Tongpan and ordered all the people in the criminal investigation department to go to Du's house to deal with the matter.

No matter what the inside story is, Du Lisheng must be given an explanation on the surface.

After arranging everything, Su Qian sat in the inner room, feeling uneasy.

Lin Feng is such a bold boy, he actually dares to do such a bad thing.

I guess Lao Du has gone crazy.

In addition to being worried, Su Qian also felt a little relieved.

Lin Feng still gave me face and didn't try to rob me.

Otherwise, this huge fortune would be in jeopardy.

That would be costing me my life.

Du Lisheng, with five thousand troops, was already marching towards the city.

Lin Feng also stepped up his work progress.

With money in hand, you can safely purchase and collect various materials.

The project progress naturally became much faster.

General Su sent someone to summon Lin Feng to his house to discuss matters.

He was also blocked outside the door by guards such as Xie Zhong.

What Su Qian meant was to let Lin Feng come forward to see if there was any room for improvement.

But I don't even want to see him.

It was obvious that he had completely fallen out with me.

Then there is nothing to say. No matter how Du Lisheng retaliates, it will not be excessive.

With a burst of rage, Du Lisheng gathered his troops and laid siege to the city in less than an hour.

Looking at the deep trenches and high walls that he was familiar with, Du Lisheng was a little confused for a moment.

In the past, we only thought about how to defend, but now we have to attack the city.

His rage burned away his reason and he forgot the tools for siege.

This thing is not available in the camp.

We have always been on the side defending the city and never thought about the opportunity to attack it.

He could barely climb over the moat, but he knew very well how thick the city gate was.

Without tools, it is impossible to open it by manpower alone.

There was no choice, Du Lisheng immediately stood at the bottom of the city gate tower, glaring at the city.

"Lin Feng, get out here!"

Endless anger made him unable to help but shout loudly.

"You despicable villain, how dare you bring disaster to my family? I will wipe out your entire clan!"

On the city wall, Lin Qiaomei leaned over the battlement and looked down.

Listening to Du Lisheng's constant scolding.

"Someone, bring me my bow and arrow."

Xi Niang quickly handed over her bow and arrow.

Lin Qiaomei tested the wind speed and estimated the distance.

He put on the arrow, slowly pulled the bow, and aimed it at the cursing Du Lisheng.

After a slight hesitation, he released his right hand.

With a clang, the arrow flew away from the bow.

The next moment, the guards around Du Lisheng rushed forward and raised their shields in front of him.

Unexpectedly, the arrow was not shot at Du Lisheng, but flashed and pierced the neck of the warhorse.

The warhorse neighed and stood up on its front legs.

He threw Du Lisheng off his horse, then leaped forward and plunged into the trench in front of him.

Du Lisheng was caught by the guards and was scared out of his wits.

Damn, if I hadn’t fallen down, would I have died along with the horse?

"You... well, you..."

He was so angry that he couldn't speak, and his fingers trembled as he pointed at the city wall.

A general nearby quickly advised.

"General, since we can't get into the city like this, why don't we block the four gates and see how he gets out?"

"Ok?"

Du Lisheng frowned and thought for a moment.

"That makes sense. I'll block the city gate and ask the commander-in-chief to come forward. I don't believe Lin Feng dares to openly betray the imperial court."

After saying this, he waved his hand and said, "Separate the troops and horses. One thousand men will be sent to each city gate. No one will be allowed to enter or leave."

The general took the order and left.

He also ordered all the soldiers to retreat, out of the range of an arrow, and set up a temporary camp.

The door was blocked for two days.

Du Lisheng was also thinking, even if you, Lin Feng, stole my treasure, I can't let you transport it out.

All transportation in the city was cut off, and Su Qian became impatient.

If this issue is not resolved, the city will not be able to function normally, and government orders will not be implemented in the entire Zhenxi area.

It not only affects politics but also economy and trade.

Many big merchants have begun to come to the government office to petition, strongly demanding the opening of the city gate road.

There was no other way, Su Qian had to go to Lin Feng in person.

The culprit is still hiding in the post house and not allowing anyone in or out.

I don't know what the hell is going on.
