Lin Kai felt that this was a bit excessive.

Because the distance from Luoshui City to Huaiyang City is almost 400 li (approximately 200 kilometers)...

"Running four hundred li in fourteen or fifteen hours...a divine being..."

Lin Kai sighed and shook his head.

I thought about it.

"All archers and spearmen, get onto the city wall."

"Also, prepare the molten gold and kerosene."

Lin Kai stood up.

Although he had some doubts about whether an army would still be combat-ready after marching 400 li overnight, or whether they would be exhausted.

But being able to command an army to march 400 li in a day... it seems only female-oriented content can accomplish that...

However, when we got to the main gate...

"Weren't more than a dozen people detained by the authorities yesterday?"

"Release those people and hang them on the city gate."

Lin Kai waved his hand without turning his head.

Although the government seized public property yesterday and almost wiped out the entire government, Lin Kai still managed to spare a dozen or so unlucky individuals.

The original intention was to lead this group to attack Luoshui City and see if they could defeat magic with magic.

Now it seems...

"Perfect timing, Hong Xincheng, let me first see just how destructive family ties really are..."

Lin Kai squinted at the blinding sunlight outside.

If it's very large... then taking over Kunnan Prefecture would be effortless!

...

It wasn't until Lin Kai climbed onto the city wall that this continued.

After receiving the bamboo tube sight from the captain, Lin Kai prepared to observe the enemy situation first.

He just picked up the bamboo tube and looked into the distance.

"?"

Lin Kai's lips twitched.

Based on the distance of a hundred thousand troops marching in three continuous routes, and considering that female-oriented content has never considered spacing...

"No, after 100,000 men marching 400 li in a dozen hours, how could nearly 80,000 still survive?"

Looking at the dark mass of people and the banners in his line of sight, Lin Kai was somewhat surprised and suspicious.

Wait, are these soldiers really that disciplined?

In real history, if 30% of these 100,000 people were to travel this far, it would be astonishing.

I hesitated for a moment.

"Are the archers all in position?"

"At our current height, once the opponent gets within two hundred paces, we'll simply..."

Lin Kai turned to look at the captain beside him.

...

Strictly speaking, Lin Kai was surprised and suspicious, but not cautious.

The 100,000-strong army led by Erda Yuqia had already proven one thing: female-oriented content doesn't understand siege warfare.

Therefore, the concepts of siege ladders, logs, siege warfare, and tunnel warfare are completely superfluous.

Just have archers stand on the city wall, and they can shoot one by one as they come...

But on the other hand...

On a flat area 7 li outside Huaiyang City.

"General, although news reports that Lin Kai has rebelled, I still feel that you need not worry too much."

A man clad in bright silver armor looked at the man in bright yellow armor beside him and spoke earnestly.

"Although the general's in-laws are located in Huaiyang City."

"But Lin Kai is a rebel."

"Rebels are despised by the world, and not many people will be willing to follow Lin Kai. So I guess the total number of troops under Lin Kai's command is no more than ten thousand."

"Now that he knows you command an army of 100,000, Lin Kai will undoubtedly be extremely respectful to your in-laws!"

After a pause, the silver-armored man added.

Hearing this clear and well-reasoned explanation...

"I hope so..."

"After receiving a message by carrier pigeon from my maternal uncle (an ancient term for father-in-law) yesterday, I immediately marched towards Huaiyang City... I hope everything is in time..."

The man in golden armor relaxed his furrowed brows and sighed.

Sigh, I hope that brat Lin Kai won't be so ungrateful...

"Don't worry, General."

"Three years ago, we personally led an army of 50,000 to attack the Southern Barbarians. Wasn't Tuoshigu, the general guarding the border region of the Southern Barbarians, so frightened that he surrendered immediately?"

"Even the barbarians beyond the borders know that 30,000 soldiers defending a city can't possibly withstand 50,000 soldiers attacking it. How could Lin Kai, as a descendant of a meritorious official of the Great Li, be so foolish?"

The man in silver armor patted Hong Xincheng on the shoulder and offered words of comfort.

Hearing this, he glanced at the silver-armored man's confident expression.

"Bo Cheng is absolutely right! I agree..."

With his mood instantly improving, Hong Xincheng nodded emphatically and spoke with a smile.

However, Hong Xincheng only got halfway through his sentence.

"?"

Seeing the few blurry figures hanging on the city wall of Huaiyang not far away, Hong Xincheng's smile instantly froze.

Although I didn't see what it looked like, I had this strange feeling that my heart was being gripped.

...

As Hong Xincheng led his army toward Huaiyang City with a look of surprise and doubt.

"what?"

Lin Kai's face instantly turned horrified as he looked at the man in bright yellow armor through the bamboo tube.

What the hell? The lieutenant is wearing bright silver armor, and the commander is wearing bright yellow armor?

What's your purpose in wearing armor? To show off and then become a sitting duck?

"And those two pheasant feathers on his head..."

Lin Kai's gaze lingered on the top of Hong Xincheng's head for a moment, then he sighed.

Okay, this is the third one. In female-oriented novels, the main competition among generals is still about who is more handsome and more flamboyant...

I thought about it.

"Pass on my orders."

"Let the soldiers on the city wall begin to torture the officials."

"Then the archers nocked their arrows, especially aiming at the one wearing bright yellow armor."

Lin Kai turned his head and looked at the messenger beside him.

It's a real shame not to shoot at the target...

"Here you go!"

Upon hearing this, the messenger nodded in agreement.

...

Following Lin Kai's instructions, the archers standing on various parts of the city wall raised their stone bows.

When Hong Xincheng rode at full speed to a point half a mile outside Huaiyang City.

I saw clearly that all the people hanging on the city wall were government officials.

"Lin Kai, you brat! If you've got the guts, then..."

Hong Xincheng drew his sword from his waist and cursed angrily.

However, Hong Xincheng only got halfway through his sentence.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Arrows rained down from the city walls of Huaiyang.

Almost instantly.

"Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!"

Hundreds of soldiers around Hong Xincheng were pierced through the body by arrows and fell from their horses.

Seeing all this before my eyes.

"Lin Kai! I'll fight you to the death!"

Hong Xincheng's eyes turned red, and then he squeezed his legs together.

However, just as his warhorse neighed, ready to gallop again...

"General! You mustn't!"

"Judging from Lin Kai's behavior, his wolfish ambitions are already quite obvious..."

The lieutenant general next to Hong Xincheng, dressed in bright silver armor, ran over and grabbed Hong Xincheng's arm tightly.

"Although I don't understand why Lin Kai, that brat, insisted on going to his death knowing that the general has 100,000 troops."

"But Lin Kai's tactic of having archers shoot from a high vantage point has already shaken the morale of the army."

"As the saying goes, one should strike while the iron is hot, but the momentum will wane with each attempt. General, what you should do now is retreat to the central command and restore order to the overall situation..."

Meeting Hong Xincheng's gaze, the deputy general spoke urgently.

However, the lieutenant only got halfway through his sentence.

"laugh!"

Blood spurted out.

"I've put up with you for too long!"

"If you hadn't assured me that Lin Kai would treat my in-laws well, why would I have only arrived in Huaiyang City now?"

Meeting the increasingly lifeless gaze of his deputy, Hong Xincheng's features contorted as he roared hysterically.

That's all.

"laugh!"

Hong Xincheng exerted force with his wrist, stabbing the longsword even deeper into the deputy general's abdomen.

...

"..."

Standing atop the city wall, Lin Kai, who clearly witnessed this scene, fell silent.

Damn it... I'm actually starting to hate the system for enhancing my vision and hearing...

"Ignoring the army's exhaustion, they immediately attacked the city after a long march..."

"To kill a general in battle, or a lieutenant..."

Lin Kai suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

The world shouldn't be like this...

I saw a volley of arrows fail to kill you, and I even thought to myself, "No wonder he's the male lead in a female-oriented novel; he's got a bit of luck..."

And this is what you give me?

What does it mean when an army commits two major taboos in succession, yet the army does not rebel?

Lin Kai, who was already in pain, was still suffering.

"Lin Kai!"

"Let these government officials go! I can surrender!"

A roar came from below the city.

Hearing this, Lin Kai came to his senses.

"As long as you promise not to harm any more government personnel and agree to preserve the government's lineage, I, Hong Xincheng, can immediately order the army to lay down their weapons!"

Meeting Lin Kai's gaze from the city wall, Hong Xincheng's face contorted with rage, veins bulging, and he spoke with a red face and thick neck.

"..."

Lin Kai suddenly didn't know what to say.

So why did you kill your deputy general in the middle of battle?

Just to vent your anger?

I hesitated for a moment.

"Open the city gates, let the army march out!"
