Thief Emperor

Chapter 129 The first achievement in suppressing the rebellion!
Li didn't return to his camp until sunset. He pulled Zhou Liang aside and said with a smile, "Uncle San, I just learned today that when marching and fighting, even the location of the toilet has to be carefully considered!"

"If it's built upwind, the whole battalion will be in trouble!"

During this period of time, Li Yun really learned a lot of good things.

It must be said that although Su Jing had a bad temper and knew nothing about the ways of the world, he was indeed capable of marching and fighting. Apart from anything else, he was able to organize and reorganize 23,000 new recruits and prevent these 23,000 or 30,000 people from falling into chaos.

Li Yun does not have this ability at the moment.

It is not easy for him to manage these five hundred people.

Therefore, being a general leading an army is not an easy task. Being able to lead tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops and keep them in order is a remarkable ability.

As for being able to command the central army and make them cooperate with each other, that is even more difficult.

It was not until this time that Li Yun realized how terrifying the realm of the military genius who said the four words "the more the better" in another world had reached in the way of war.

Looking at the somewhat excited Li Yun, Zhou Liang said with a smile: "The village chief now looks much happier than before in the Cangshan Village. It seems that this military camp is where the village chief should be."

Li Yun smiled and shook his head, "That's nonsense. I'm happy because I learned some skills."

He looked at the nearby tents and curled his lips: "As for this military camp, we can't stay here for long."

Zhou Liang paused, looked at Li Yun and said, "General Su came to our camp this afternoon to inspect it. Before he left, he asked the village chief to see him, saying that he had an errand for the village chief."

Mr. Li frowned. "He's looking for me? And he wants to assign me a task?"

"Aren't we still training now? It's only been less than half a month, and he's already assigning things to us?"

Li Dazhaizhu snorted, "That old man, you won't take revenge on me, will you?"

Zhou Liang smiled and said, "That shouldn't happen. General Su has a good reputation, especially in terms of fighting. He rarely loses a battle."

Li Yun curled his lips, somewhat disapprovingly.

"Uncle San, I've read some biographies of generals recently, and I found that the better a general is at fighting, the darker his heart is."

Zhou Liang was speechless and asked, "Then are you going, village leader? If you don't go, I'm afraid we will have to flee overnight."

"I have to go, let's see what's going on first."

Mr. Li straightened his clothes and said, "I'll go see him right away. This old man is really idle. He is a marching commander, why would he see a captain like me?"

After muttering to Su Jing, Li Yun still rushed towards the central army tent. After arriving at the central army, he passed several guards before he successfully entered the tent and saw General Su who was writing at his desk.

Li Yun saluted with his fists, but seeing that the general didn't even raise his head and ignored him, he didn't get in a hurry. He just stood up and stood there, waiting quietly.

After a long while, Su Jing put down the brush, breathed a sigh of relief, and after blowing the ink dry, he looked up at Li Yun and said slowly: "It was because I was too disturbed by these cases in the past few years. Otherwise, I would not necessarily lose to you."

Li Yun felt a little funny.

This general is a little narrow-minded. He still remembers the fight that happened half a month ago.

Mr. Li coughed, clasped his fists and said, "The general is still sharp, and I am taking advantage of his youth."

"Where did you go today?"

Su Jing looked at Li Yun and asked, "You have left your post without permission. I can punish you by military law."

Zhou Liang had mentioned this matter earlier, and Li Yun had already prepared an explanation. He said, "Take the soldiers under your command and go out for training."

"I didn't leave the camp, I just ran around the camp. It didn't violate military law, right?"

General Su poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "I have an errand for your department to do."

Li Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "It's the general's order."

"To the east of Qiantang County, there is a county town called Linshui County."

"According to intelligence, this place has been occupied by the rebels. This county town is extremely close to Qiantang County and its location is very important."

"I am going to send your troops to Linshui."

Li Yun's eyes widened: "The general asked us to take back Linshui?"

"It would be best if you could take it back."

Su Jing said calmly: "But I will not give such an order. After your troops arrive at Linshui, your most important task is to act as a pioneer and scout and find out the situation in Linshui."

General Su frowned and thought for a while, then said, "After you leave, I will send troops to Qiantang County in about half a month to a month to eliminate the rebels in Qiantang County."

"A messenger will inform you of the specific time at any time."

"After the main force of our army arrives at Qiantang County, they will head straight to the county seat to rescue Qiantang. At this time, your troops will head straight to Linshui to take back Linshui County."

Li Yun did not agree immediately, but stood there, frowning.

"Don't worry, if I want to take personal revenge."

General Su drank a sip of tea and said calmly: "I will send you to the front line directly. After a few charges, it will be difficult for only 10% of your 500 men to survive." He paused and continued: "If you can take Linshui, I will remember your first achievement and give you a future."

Li Yun's eyes rolled rapidly.

He didn't really want the first place, but he really wanted a county...

However, this requirement is still difficult to achieve now.

After thinking for a while, Li Yun said, "General, the people under my command have only been training for ten days. Should we let them train a little longer before sending them to the battlefield?"

"I went to your camp this afternoon."

Su Jing said calmly: "Even if the other battalions train for another month or two, it will be difficult for them to reach the level of your battalion."

"If you leave one day earlier, I will have a little more advantage."

Mr. Li thought for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "General, since we are here to suppress the rebellion, we will naturally obey your orders. However, this mission is not easy to handle. You must give me the guys I deserve."

"Well, what do you want?"

"One hundred sets of full armor."

Li Yun paused and continued, "The more bows and crossbows, the better."

Now, the armors issued by the court are not full-body armor. They can only protect some vital parts, which is far from full-body armor.

Su Jing coughed and almost spit out his tea: "I'm not asking you to charge into the battle, why do you need full armor?"

"Perhaps, I can capture Linshui?"

Su Jing stretched out five fingers and said in a deep voice, "Fifty sets."

"You can have one full set of armor among ten people, which is already a special case."

Li Yun was also very happy and nodded, "Okay."

General Su then waved his hand and said, "Go ahead. Leave within three days."

Li Yun stretched out his hand and said, "General, military orders."

General Su glanced at him, suppressed his anger, wrote a military order to Li Yun, stamped it, and cursed: "How can I deny my responsibility, you bastard!"

Li Yun was scolded by him, but he was not angry. He walked forward, took the military order and turned away. The moment he walked out of the tent, he was already ecstatic!
And such a good thing!

He had a conflict with Su Jing that day and wanted to leave the army. A big part of the reason was that the army had to act as a group, and the fate of him and his subordinates could only go with the flow on the battlefield.

Now, he can act alone and has much more room to play.

Li Yun seemed to be afraid that Su Jing would go back on his word, so after receiving the military order, he rushed all the way back to his own camp, and then immediately called Li Zheng and Zhou Liang to his tent.

It was already dark. Li Yun sat down in his tent and told the two people what happened. Then he chuckled and said, "I didn't want to act with the main force. Now is a good opportunity. Let's pack up tomorrow and leave Ningguo early the day after tomorrow and go to Qiantang County!"

Li Zheng at the side smacked his lips and said, "Fifty sets of full armor, how much can it fetch if sold..."

Li Yun glared at him, and Li Zheng quickly shrank his neck and dared not speak.

Zhou Liang coughed and said, "Village leader, although it's the same armor, there's a big difference. You have to be more careful when we go to get the armor tomorrow."

"Bring back something good."

Li Yun smiled and nodded, saying, "Of course I know this. I'll go pick it out carefully tomorrow."

At this point, he changed the subject and asked, "I wonder where this Linshui County is that made that old man so concerned."

"It's right on the edge of Qiantang County."

Zhou Liang looked at Li Yun and added, "It should be only a few dozen miles away."

Li Yun frowned when he heard this.

"The Zhao guy from Yuezhou Army is still attacking Qiantang. Damn it, didn't the Su guy put us right in front of the enemy?"

After cursing, Li Yun took out a booklet from his arms.

This is a map he got these days, it's very rough.

After pointing on the map for a while, Li Yun pointed to the area near Tianmu Mountain and said, "I don't know how many rebels there are in Linshui County, but fortunately we can't defeat them. Let's go to Tianmu Mountain first."

"The rest..."

Mr. Li narrowed his eyes.

"According to circumstances!"
