Lin Kai thought there was nothing wrong with it.

Although he didn't understand why a military governor had 100,000 ironclad cavalry... after all, the entire Jin dynasty only had 70,000...

But he knew very well how devastatingly powerful the Ironclad Cavalry was in the era of cold weapons...

Then let's go with Plan B!

"I remember Yue Fei decisively defeated the Iron Pagoda... The method Yue Fei used at that time was..."

Walking on the streets of the city, Lin Kai stroked his chin.

Although the Ironclad Cavalry lacks mobility, as long as the city is defended to the death, the Ironclad Cavalry will most likely blow itself up.

But something feels off... and I'm stuck in the city by a bunch of female-oriented brainwashers?

As Lin Kai pondered this, he walked towards the city wall.

"Young Master!"

Cui Ji spurred his horse and caught up.

"I have already given the order, and the soldiers have started digging traps around the city as you instructed."

Raising his head to meet Lin Kai's gaze, Cui Ji spoke earnestly.

"Well done!"

Lin Kai nodded in satisfaction.

"However, one of the captains didn't understand... Luckily, I remember what you said to me when you mentioned that sentence before, young master..."

"He didn't understand? How did you explain it to him?"

"It's what you said before, young master: watch me outsmart him."

"?"

Meeting Cui Ji's gaze, Lin Kai remained silent for a moment.

I just said it offhand, and you actually remembered it?

...

Although I kind of want to say that's not what I meant.

But upon closer examination, it becomes clear that the two sentences actually have similar meanings.

Lin Kai was too lazy to care anymore.

After climbing to the top of Anqing City.

He looked around at the soldiers who had set up mud traps and other obstacles.

"A group feigned weakness to lure the enemy into a trap as much as possible."

"After the Ironclad Pagoda formation is disrupted, a squad of swordsmen will attack from the flank. Remember to prioritize cutting down the horses' legs!"

Lin Kai put down the bamboo tube and looked at Cui Ji beside him, waving his hand.

Although I remembered that Yue Fei was carrying a long axe and an iron hammer...

But I never expected that there would be something like the Ironclad Cavalry in the female-oriented genre!

"I will obey your orders, young master."

He cupped his hands in a gesture of respect and agreed.

He was about to turn around and give instructions to the messenger.

"By the way, you said before that you only knew that military governor of Kunnan Prefecture, what was it?"

Lin Kai asked curiously.

He was also curious as to why the military governor of Kunnan Prefecture had come to kill him.

Although Lin Kai did capture the daughter of the military governor of Kunnan Prefecture, he hasn't told anyone yet.

"oh."

"That military governor of Kunnan Prefecture was notoriously afraid of his wife."

Choi Ki turned his head.

"Are you afraid of your wife?"

Lin Kai raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, it is said that during the reign of Emperor Taizu, the governor of Kunnan Prefecture rebelled because his son was slapped by the Eighth Prince. Then, under the shrewish roar of his wife, the governor of Kunnan Prefecture was enraged and raised an army in rebellion."

"?"

"The military governor of Kunnan Prefecture inherited his father's character, and even more so. It is said that he once caused 100,000 soldiers to commit suicide because of a single word from his wife."

"..."

Hearing Cui Ji's words, Lin Kai fell silent.

I forgot what I said earlier, but what does it mean that after the governor rebelled, his son was still a military governor? And he even had troops?

"Female-oriented content really doesn't understand the rules of power dynamics..."

Lin Kai rubbed his temples, feeling somewhat conflicted.

But I kept agonizing over it.

"Wait a minute, the military governor of Kunnan Prefecture is henpecked. Gu Youcheng, your son broke his son's legs, but he didn't say a word?"

Feeling that he had grasped a key point, Lin Kai looked at Gu Youcheng.

"My wife is the sister of the wife of the military governor of Kunnan Prefecture."

Gu Youcheng cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and began to speak.

Lin Kai: ?

"Did you do anything to Xi Mengzhi before?"

Lin Kai narrowed his eyes and spoke thoughtfully.

Alright, now we know why the military governor of Kunnan Prefecture came to Anqing City.

Upon hearing this, Gu Youcheng scratched his head.

After thinking for a long time.

"Ten days ago, my wife wanted to buy a set of jewelry, but I thought five hundred taels of silver was too expensive, so I refused her."

"After returning to the Gu residence, my wife kept insisting on divorcing me."

Gu Youcheng remembered.

Lin Kai: ?

Let's not even talk about how your family has 30 million taels of silver, what's 500 taels? Nor is it about getting a divorce over not buying a piece of jewelry.

It's confirmed! Spending too much time with female-oriented content will definitely corrupt you!

...

Although Lin Kai wanted to test how much of Gu Youcheng's subconscious had a female-oriented brain.

But with a formidable enemy at hand, Lin Kai couldn't be bothered with it anymore.

However, Lin Kai discovered from Chen Shi (7-9 AM) that the arrangements were made at Chen Shi.

It wasn't until almost Shenshi (3-5 PM) that it happened.

"Where's the Ironclad Cavalry?"

Looking at the still empty city outside, Lin Kai was a little suspicious.

No, where are you?

I've dug the trap, laid the ambush, and even ordered the horses' legs to be cut off. Where are you?

"Cui Ji, surely the scouts wouldn't give false information?"

Turning to look at Cui Ji, Lin Kai narrowed his eyes.

"Is it really that bad?"

"The scouts reported that they had spotted the Ironclad Cavalry a hundred miles away..."

Choi Ki shrank his neck.

"Who knows?"

Lin Kai snorted and curled his lip.

While Lin Kai began to order an investigation into whether the two scouts had lied about military intelligence.

the other side.

On the plains more than 70 miles outside Anqing City.

"Madam, weren't you in a hurry to get an explanation for your friend? Why aren't you in a rush now?"

A burly man with a resolute face, thick eyebrows, and large eyes, wearing dark green armor, rode on horseback and turned to look at a woman beside him who was also riding a horse and wearing bright silver armor.

Upon hearing this curious remark...

"Now that we're here, what's the rush?"

"Back then, as the Dragon and Tiger General of the Great Yu, I escorted Xi Mengzhi to marry Gu Youcheng."

"Now that more than a decade has passed, how can I not take a look around when I revisit this place?"

The woman glared at him with her phoenix eyes and spoke in an annoyed tone.

He paused after saying that.

Just as the big man scratched his head, preparing to say something...

"What? Liu Yanming, do you think I bought too much cosmetics?"

"Are you starting to feel bad about your money?"

The woman spoke with a cold laugh.

These words were spoken.

Liu Yanming's expression changed drastically in an instant.

next moment.

"How could that be? If my wife is pleased, I will accompany her to the very end. Let alone emptying the cobalt powder coffers of an entire city, even if it were ten or a hundred cities, I would not hesitate!"

Liu Yanming patted his chest and spoke with great confidence.

He paused after saying that.

He glanced at the woman's pretty face, which had softened slightly.

"However, we didn't bring much food with us to Anding City this time. The captain just came to report to me that it's only enough to last until tomorrow."

"We are still more than 70 li away from Anding City... Is it...?"

Liu Yanming hesitated for a moment before speaking cautiously.

"Then that should be enough to last until tomorrow, right?"

"A mere 70-odd li (approximately 35 kilometers) can't be reached in just a few hours?"

The woman curled her lip, looking quite disdainful.

"If it were only 70 li or so, that would naturally be no problem. But Madam, you said before that you wanted to give Gu Youcheng a warning first, so when we were close to 100 li apart, you deliberately had the soldiers wear armor so that the scouts could see that it was the Iron Pagoda..."

"So what? Xi Mengzhi is a princess of the Great Yu, and I am a general of the Great Yu, so naturally I have to protect her!"

"A single Iron Pagoda armor set, including the armor for the rider and the horse, weighs over a hundred pounds. The soldiers are already exhausted after walking for several miles wearing it. They not only need rest, but their dinner will likely consume a lot of energy..."

Seeing that the woman didn't get angry, Liu Yanming grew a little bolder, pointed to the soldiers behind him, and spoke slowly and deliberately.

But Liu Yanming was only halfway through his sentence.

"If the soldiers don't have food, they won't eat! Will they die from going hungry for a day?"

The woman instantly flew into a rage.

"Back in the Great Yu, men were considered beautiful for being thin, and soldiers in the army even took pride in occasionally going hungry. Why does the Great Li have so many fuss over this?"

Extending her fair right hand and slender middle finger, the woman roared hysterically.

...

After being severely scolded, Liu Yanming dared not say another word and could only continue to force a smile.

As time goes by.

At 19-21 PM, on the city wall of Anqing.

"Something's not right?"

"These scouts all claim they definitely saw the Iron Pagoda?"

Standing on the ground, looking at the few trembling scouts in front of him, Lin Kai stroked his chin.

So what's going on here?

By Chen Shi (7-9 AM), we were already a hundred li away; by Xu Shi (7-9 PM), we hadn't seen a single hair.

"I always feel like someone is acting against me... but it also feels like they're not..."

Lin Kai sighed and shook his head.

I thought about it.

"Cui Ji, bring Qin Muyao up here!"
