Chapter 106
"With Zhongde here, my heart is very much at ease!"
Muttering a sigh, Lin Yang handed the secret letter in his hand to Zhao Yun beside him!
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, moved by Lin Yang's trust, and then took it to check!
Looking at the contents above, Zhao Yun also breathed a sigh of relief!
"My lord, in this way, our danger can be resolved!"
Zhao Yun bowed and said!
Lin Yang nodded, a smile appeared on his originally solemn face, and then he looked at Zhao Yun and said, "Zilong, pass the order down to march according to Zhongde's route!"
"The army should speed up a bit, but we also need to guard against Zhang Chao's surprise attack!"
As the words were spoken, this secret letter from Cheng Yu arrived, allowing Lin Yang to focus solely on dealing with the pursuing Zhang Chao!
"My lord, rest assured, Zilong will definitely guard the rear of the army for you!"
Following Zhao Yun's departure, Lin Yang also nodded!
Fortunately, Zhao Yun and Seeing Dian Wei were here this time!
Otherwise!
In such a situation, he would really have no one to use!
And just as the army was moving, rumors began to spread among the disaster victims around!
"Have you heard? It seems Administrator Lin is about to be besieged by someone?"
"Is it true or false? Administrator Lin is such a good person, who would want to attack him!"
"Don't, if Administrator Lin is defeated, won't we have nothing to eat!"
"What are you saying, just thinking about eating, do you have any conscience left!"
"That's right, we absolutely cannot let Administrator Lin be defeated!"
"........"
The army moved, and it was absolutely impossible to not leak any wind!
While the disaster victims were discussing, in the crowd, a sturdy man, supporting a sickly old man beside him, became slightly worried!
"Father, I fear there will be a war here, why don't I take you away first!"
The man spoke!
"Slap!"
Just as the words were finished, the next moment, a crisp slap was delivered directly!
The sudden slap left the man bewildered!
"You bastard, Administrator Lin saved our lives!" The sickly old man pointed at the man angrily and cursed, "Now that Administrator Lin is in danger, how can we abandon him!"
Scolded by his father, tears welled up in the man's eyes, full of guilt!
"Father, the child is not afraid of death, the child is afraid for you!"
The man was strong and healthy, if he were alone, he would have definitely joined the army long ago!
The reason he was still here!
Was purely out of worry that if he joined the army, his father would have no one to take care of him!
Now that the war was about to begin!
How could he be such an ungrateful person!
But!
He did not want his father to be affected by the war!
"Child, father is an old bag of bones, if it weren't for meeting Administrator Lin, I would have been buried in the soil long ago!" The sickly old man helped up the man who was kneeling on the ground and taught him earnestly!
"Father doesn't understand any great principles, father only knows that Administrator Lin has shown us great kindness, and we cannot fail to repay it!"
After the words were spoken, for a time, tears welled up in the man's eyes, and then he knelt heavily on the ground and kowtowed several times!
"Father, the son understands, in this battle, the son will definitely swear to repay Administrator Lin's kindness with his life!"
The firm words made the sickly old man smile with relief!
Among the over a hundred thousand disaster victims at this moment, because the news of Zhang Chao's army attack spread, everyone had their own actions!
Some fled secretly from the disaster victims' team out of fear!
Lin Yang did not stop this at all!
Some, like the man, wanted to flee, but were scolded by the old man!
Others had firmly identified with Lin Yang from the beginning, and were even willing to die for Lin Yang!
Two days later, outside the camp
"My lord, according to the news from the scouts, Zhang Chao's troops will catch up before sunset tomorrow!"
At this moment, in the camp, Zhao Yun, Seeing Dian Wei, and others were all here!
Li Gang had been arranged by Lin Yang while in Huai'an to take Cai Yong and the others back early!
After all, they were about to face a war!
Having Cai Yong and the others here would instead be a burden!
"Are they chasing so fast?"
Originally, Lin Yang thought there would be two more days, but he didn't expect Zhang Chao to chase so fast!
This is clearly wanting to put him to death!
"Zilong, how is the training of the new soldiers?"
Looking at Zhao Yun beside him, he saw the latter showing a difficult expression!
"My lord, four thousand soldiers were formed in a hurry, I fear they are difficult to use!"
Zhao Yun spoke very tactfully!
Although four thousand strong and healthy ones were recruited from the disaster victims and filled into the army!
But in the end!
They had only been trained for a few days!
Let alone forming combat effectiveness!
Once these four thousand soldiers went to the battlefield and faced Zhang Chao's troops, it would be impressive enough if they didn't collapse at the first touch!
"Sigh, the time is too short!"
With a sigh, Lin Yang also understood!
It's not that you can call them soldiers just by recruiting some people!
However, he also never thought of relying on these four thousand soldiers to resist Zhang Chao!
What he could rely on was the two thousand soldiers of his main force!
Just as Lin Yang was worrying, on the other side in the rear
"Haha, tomorrow is the day of death for this Lin Ziyuan!"
At this moment, Zhang Chao, hearing the report from his subordinates, laughed triumphantly!
Although he had already received the secret letter from Zhang Hong saying that he could not join forces with him to encircle and annihilate Lin Yang!
But even so!
He still had ten thousand troops under his command!
Ten thousand against two thousand!
The advantage is with me!
He didn't believe that in this kind of battle, he would lose!
