This military camp was too big, so Lin Qinghe chose to head straight to the north of the enemy camp, which was the direction Feng Sheng mentioned.

Sometimes she still listens to advice.

That may not be the place to store food and fodder, but there must be big fish there.

The bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish. Lin Qinghe actually caught a big fish.

That night, Prince Jing, who was reading a military book under the lamp and had not yet fallen asleep, raised his hand and knocked on the table in a somewhat anxious manner.

It’s been so long, why haven’t we heard the sound of the arrows yet?

Could it be that Chen Ning failed?

Chen Ning is a meticulous person who acts properly, so there shouldn't be any mistakes.

If the food and grass of the reinforcements from Hengzhou were burned, and they launched a night attack when the morale of the Hengzhou army was low, it would probably be very effective.

Thinking of the 130,000 troops under his command, Prince Jing lowered his eyes with a sense of relief.

This capital city will definitely be in his pocket!

What Prince Jing didn't expect was that he became Lin Qinghe's prey in just a moment.

In the flash of swords and sabers, with just one move, Prince Jing was defeated and Lin Qinghe held a dagger against his neck, the sharp blade flashing with cold light.

"Who are you?" One can only say that he is worthy of being Prince Jing who dared to lead an army to attack the city. Even with a knife on his neck, he never frowned.

Lin Qinghe snorted coldly and pinched the tender flesh of Prince Jing's arm. Seeing him frown in pain, she was satisfied and asked, "Where are your food supplies?"

"..." Prince Jing was silent now.

Lin Qinghe saw that he was not honest and rolled her eyes. "Even if you don't tell me, I can ask others about it, but your life..."

"Do you dare to kill me? I am the current Prince Jing." Prince Jing remained calm and composed.

Unexpectedly, it was such a big fish. Lin Qinghe raised his eyebrows, raised his hand to knock Prince Jing unconscious, then carried Prince Jing and began to use his spiritual sense to scan the surroundings to see which place was heavily guarded.

After going to the wrong places three times in a row and knocking out three generals, Lin Qinghe finally found the right place where the food and grass were stored.

It’s almost dawn, and it will be too late to act.

Lin Qinghe opened the tinderbox and threw it away casually. She brought enough tinderboxes this time, ten in total!

She was given half of the tinderbox from the kitchen. After throwing it ten times, Lin Qinghe placed the still unconscious Prince Jing in front of the tent where food and grass were stored.

When he wakes up and sees his family’s food and supplies being burned, his expression will definitely be very interesting, right?

Thinking of this, Lin Qinghe curled his lips and smiled, and quickly moved the three generals who had been knocked unconscious before over to accompany Prince Jing. The four of them were just the right size to play mahjong together!

After clapping their hands, they watched as the fire had already started and there was no possibility of saving the food and grass.

Already alert soldiers saw that the camp where food and fodder were stored was on fire and were shouting to put out the fire.

Lin Qinghe took advantage of the chaos and ran out of the Cangzhou army camp.

When she came out, she saw a man waiting anxiously not far from Cangzhou Army. It was Zhao Dahu.

Lin Qinghe walked towards him briskly, "It's done, run!"

If you don't run, you might be caught.

When Zhao Dahu heard this, his face was filled with joy at first, and then he ran faster than a rabbit, even faster than Lin Qinghe.

When they arrived at the camp, there was cheering in the barracks.

"The people who wanted to attack us were driven away by General Cao and his men!"

"That's right. We had a great fight tonight! I heard that the leader of the opposing team was chased by General Wei and his men and fled away in disarray!"

"We have to have a good meal today! Where's the kitchen? Why hasn't it cooked yet? I'm getting hungry waiting for you!"

"I heard that they don't have enough firewood today, so they have to cook slowly... We have to wait a little longer before we can eat."

"General Zhu, we must reward you for your merits this time! Wait, in that direction... there's a huge cloud of smoke coming from the Cangzhou Army camp. Is there a fire?"

"Let me see, there is a really big cloud of black smoke. It looks like the fire is quite big! Could it be that the food and fodder have been burned?"

"Serves you right. I think you've only managed to steal the chicken but ended up losing the rice!"

In a sense, this statement is indeed correct.

Zhao Dahu is very happy now, Brother Lin actually burned the food and grass of the Cangzhou army!

This time, the credit that General Zhu promised to give to Brother Lin must be significant!

When it came time to award rewards, General Zhu stared at Lin Qinghe with wide eyes, who not only burned the Cangzhou army's food supplies but also escaped unscathed.

He has already sent people to investigate. The morale of the soldiers in the Cangzhou military camp is low and the news is blocked. How could this situation be hidden from the battle-hardened General Zhu?

It’s obvious that the Cangzhou army’s food and supplies were really burned!

I didn't expect that this skinny cook in front of me could have such skills.

"Since you have such ability, this general will first appoint you as a centurion and remember your merits. When you have made merits in defending the capital, I will report your merits to His Majesty when we meet him. How about that?" General Zhu said with a smile. The consecutive victories made him laugh heartily.

Lin Qinghe had no objection to this, "Thank you, General!"

Zhao Dahu was somewhat dissatisfied. After leaving the tent, he snorted in dissatisfaction, "How can General Zhu be so stingy that he only gives you a centurion! Brother Lin, how much contribution have you made?"

"Don't worry, everything will come slowly." Lin Qinghe said without any panic.

She and Zhao Dahu went to get a pancake and ate it with some cold water.

Different from the cheers on Lin Qinghe's side.

On the other side, the Cangzhou military camp looked lifeless.

When Prince Jing woke up, he saw a scene that made his eyes burst: most of his food supplies had been burned!

It was not a pleasant feeling to watch his food and property disappear into ashes. Prince Jing was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

When Chen Ning came running over with a few defeated soldiers like a stray dog, Prince Jing's frustration and anger reached its peak!

"Chen Ning, didn't you say that this matter is foolproof?" Prince Jing picked up the teacup and threw it at Chen Ning.

The tea was not very hot, and Chen Ning, who was already injured, had the tea splashed all over his face, making him look even more embarrassed.

"It is my fault. I admit my guilt! I hope Prince Jing will calm down!" Chen Ning knelt on one knee and saluted.

He did not expect that the truth would be revealed suddenly. Not only did the enemy's food and supplies not get burned, but his own were stolen first and then caught fire.

Prince Jing was very angry at this time, and Chen Ning tried his best to agree with him.

Ever since Jiang Susu was exposed for colluding with Liu Ermaizi to frame Lin Heqing, Chen Ning had not left Xiaoniu Village for a while, and because of this he missed the county's recruitment.

By chance, he went to Cangzhou, which happened to be recruiting soldiers, so Chen Ning joined the army.

After joining the army, Chen Ning quickly gained the appreciation of his superiors with his superb archery skills and strong physique.

Later, coupled with his several not insignificant military exploits over the past few months, Chen Ning successfully entered Prince Jing's vision.

The idea of ​​burning the enemy's food supplies and taking the opportunity to launch a night attack was proposed by Chen Ning. Unexpectedly, it ended in failure and they paid a heavy price.

With the food supplies burned, the Cangzhou army might not be able to fight to the death with the capital this time.

The young emperor still has a steady supply of reinforcements, so his chances of winning this time are slim.

What was unexpected was that three days later, the little emperor, who was only thirteen years old, actually jumped down from the high city wall!
