It's about helping you navigate the female-oriented online community, not conquering cities and

"Bone-shrinking kung fu?"

Lin Kai was a little surprised when he saw the pop-up data panel.

First it was the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, then the Vajra Finger, then the Yi Jin Jing... Why are they all martial arts moves?

However, aside from the overall attribute boost, the ability to freely change one's skeletal structure... easily subdues enemy generals...

Thinking about this...

"This is good stuff!"

Lin Kai's eyes lit up instantly.

next moment.

Lin Kai dismounted and walked towards the war drums not far away.

...

Lin Kai felt that since the system had issued a mission, it was necessary to conquer Yongning City.

And we have to be quick, otherwise what if that Rong Chunlian runs away?

And then the war drums sounded again, "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A group of soldiers who were already convinced of Lin Kai's worth for "various reasons" rushed forward with tears in their eyes.

Seeing this scene.

"Not bad, not bad!"

Lin Kai was even more satisfied.

But compared to Lin Kai's satisfaction.

The city wall of Yongning.

"Madam, what brings you here?"

Luo Hai watched the beautiful woman in palace attire slowly approaching, his lips twitching slightly, and a smile that looked more like a grimace forced onto his face.

"What? You're my husband, can't I even help you defend the city?"

"Or do you think I'm like those big-breasted, brainless women, completely ignorant of military strategy? That I'll only cause trouble if I come up here?"

Rong Chunlian rolled her eyes at Luo Hai and spoke in an annoyed tone.

He paused after saying that.

"No matter what, I inherited the title of Marquis of Xuanwei from my father. Do you think I don't know more than you?"

With a cold voice, Rong Chunlian walked towards the city wall.

Luo Hai: ...

His lips twitched slightly.

"Of course, the lady is the descendant of a marquis, so she must be incredibly shrewd in military strategy."

"However, I just heard Madam say that we need to rescue the female prisoners of war from the enemy army?"

Luo Hai quickly stepped forward.

He glanced at the Lin family army, who had already walked 100 paces outside the city.

"What if this was done intentionally by the enemy general? Even if it wasn't, if the enemy general makes exorbitant demands, wouldn't Yongning City be..."

With a forced smile, Luo Hai tried his best to find words that he felt would be persuasive to Rong Chunlian.

But Luo Hai hadn't finished speaking.

"What? You used to tell me that after we got married, I would be in charge of everything, that everything would be done my way, and that you would never let me suffer any grievances."

"It's only been a few years, and you're already starting to dislike me?"

Rong Chunlian turned her head, her pretty face filled with murderous intent as she looked at Luo Hai, and spoke in an icy tone.

...

Although Luo Hai really wanted to refute this statement.

But they saw that outside the city, the army had already closed to within 50 paces.

"Archers, fire your arrows immediately!"

"Throw down logs, oil lamps, and torches as well!"

Luo Hai gritted his teeth and looked to the other side.

These words were spoken.

"Luo Hai, how dare you! What if you provoke the enemy's wrath?"

"Do you really want those thousands of women to die like this?"

Behind her, Rong Chunlian's eyebrows instantly shot up.

However, upon hearing these words, which sounded like a shrew's roar, Luo Hai fell silent for a moment.

But next second.

"What are you standing there for! I'm the commander!"

Looking at the messenger standing motionless beside him, Luo Hai roared.

Forget it, let's just pretend we didn't see it. There's no way we can save them... that would put the initiative in someone else's hands.

...

As Luo Hai gave the order.

When Lin's army was about 20 paces away from the city gate.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

A dense rain of arrows fell.

But Lin Kai had anticipated this scene, so he had already ordered the shield bearers to hold up their shields and guard the left and right sides.

So even though the number of arrows was considerable, the army continued to move.

However, after the army set up the siege ladders...

"Sizzle!"

Countless torches were thrown down from the city walls, along with buckets of oil.

next second.

Oil gushed down the steep wooden beams of the ladder, torches struck the surface, sparks flew, and a trail of light blue flames instantly ignited before sliding down the wood grain.

Seeing this scene.

"Well, this Luo Hai has some skills, but not many..."

Lin Kai sighed.

They knew how to defend a city, and they knew how to throw oil and torches down, but they didn't know about siege ladders...

"Luckily, I had previously spent several million taels of silver to have craftsmen build me over a hundred cloud ladders..."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Kai shook his head.

He turned around.

"Send word: whoever first reaches the top of Yongning City will be rewarded with 1000 taels of gold; whoever opens the city gates..."

Looking at the messenger beside him, Lin Kai waved his hand.

...

The messenger relayed Lin Kai's orders.

The soldiers attacked the city even more desperately.

Meanwhile, on the city wall of Yongning City.

"Weren't you so arrogant just now? Say something!"

"Were you looking down on me just now?"

Rong Chunlian put her hands on her hips, looked up at Luo Hai, and snorted coldly.

Weren't you so awesome just now? How about now?

LOL, those broken oil and arrows can stop the enemy?

"I……"

Luo Hai hesitated, wanting to refute.

After all, he had never seen siege ladders like this before; in the past, they would turn into a sea of ​​fire if oil was poured on them...

But then he glanced at the enemy soldiers who had climbed to within forty inches of the top of the city wall.

"Quick! Overturn the ladder!"

Luo Hai strode forward and roared.

Now is not the time to argue, the enemy has already attacked... But it's strange, why isn't this ladder on fire?

...

Having learned from past mistakes, the soldiers defending the city listened to Luo Hai quite well this time.

But soon, Luo Hai discovered a blind spot.

Because he could pull out the iron hook at the top of the ladder, but the other soldiers couldn't do it at all.

Even most of the soldiers defending the city, though their faces turned red, merely moved the tip of their iron hooks slightly.

When Luo Hai first discovered this blind spot, he thought of having archers shoot arrows.

However, each arrow was deflected by the wooden planks on both sides of the ladder.

Having archers shoot arrows at the entrance to the siege ladder is a viable option.

But the speed at which they shot people was not as fast as the enemy soldiers could climb... They were all wearing armor and helmets...

A cup of tea, a quarter of an hour, a stick of incense...

Looking at the helpless soldiers beside him, and then at the enemy soldiers getting closer and closer to the city wall.

"What should we do? What should we do?"

Despair welled up in Luo Hai's heart.

This isn't right!

I'm already surprised you can siege cities. What exactly is this ladder of yours? It can't be burned and it can't be pulled out either?

Thinking and thinking.

"Thump!"

Luo Hai knelt down on both knees with a look of despair on his face.

Looking ahead, the outlines of enemy soldiers' helmets were faintly visible.

"I'm so ashamed..."

He murmured something, then Luo Hai reached for his waist with his right hand.

He had just grasped the hilt of his sword.

I knew you couldn't do it.

Rong Chunlian behind him snorted coldly.

"How many times have I told you? War is about using love and compassion, not like what you're doing. Violence only breeds more violence, don't you understand?"

As Rong Chunlian strode toward the city wall ahead, he curled his lip in disapproval.

Rong Chunlian paused when he reached the city wall.

"I am Marquis Xuanwei. Who is your commander?"

Looking at the soldiers about to climb the city wall, Rong Chunlian spoke arrogantly.

...

When the gates of Yongning City opened, Lin Kai still felt a little emotional.

After all, this was his first "real" battle since he transmigrated.

Although it's true that the other side had never seen a siege ladder before and didn't know what one was or how to deal with it, it was still a battle, Lin Kai thought.

However, after Lin Kai rode his horse into Yongning City...

"Hmm? You captured a marquis?"

Turning his head, Lin Kai raised an eyebrow at the soldier kneeling on one knee to his right.

I remember the system mentioned Rong Chunlian, isn't he a marquis?

Is this guy kidnapped?

"I dare not deceive the general; we did indeed capture a marquis, and it was this man who told me."

The armored soldier nodded and spoke respectfully.

Hu Daren also found it strange.

I was the first to climb the city wall, and you're telling me you're a marquis? What the hell?

You don't think I'll let you off the hook just because you're a woman, do you?

Hilarious! The general himself said, 1000 taels of gold, and a promotion of three ranks...

"Oh? Where?"

Lin Kai raised his chin.

This must be the woman... That's great... I was worried my kill would be stolen...

...

However, Lin Kai was still a little surprised.

After all, Lin Kai vaguely remembered that this Hu Daren had not been "transformed into a suicide soldier" by the "unorthodox gold".

That's just a female-oriented native soldier, at most a female-oriented "hooligan."

Status and position are the underlying code in female-oriented fiction. In these stories, the prime minister who commands the imperial guards dares not utter a sound to a powerless emperor, and there are countless examples of crown princes who have the Minister of Personnel as their tutors committing suicide because of a single word from the emperor...

Therefore, Hu Daren's behavior seriously violates the logic of female-oriented content.

After a cup of tea, I rode my horse across the city wall.

"Is it really true, as Cui Ji said before, that these soldiers are increasingly deifying me?"

Looking at the soldiers standing on the city wall ahead, Lin Kai had some doubts.

After pondering for a while, Lin Kai shook his head.

Take another dozen or so steps forward.

"You're the Marquis? I heard that after you saw the soldiers, you stepped forward and said so yourself..."

Looking down at Rong Chunlian, who was bound hand and foot and kneeling on the ground, Lin Kai raised his eyebrows.

"Since you know that, why don't you release me right now?"

Before Lin Kai could finish speaking, Rong Chunlian twisted her waist and struggled, shouting angrily.

Lin Kai: ?

You were captured by me in the war, and instead of being humble, you speak like this?

Why are you looking at me?

"Do you know how rude that soldier was?"

"Besides, I am a marquis. According to the laws of Dali, officials are exempt from punishment. Are you going to disobey this rule?"

Meeting Lin Kai's gaze, Rong Chunlian became even more annoyed.

What bad luck... I was just trying to make fun of Luo Hai, but I ended up getting tied up...

But who is this general? Why does my heart start pounding the moment I see him? And even a glance between us makes my bones melt?

"what?"

Looking at Rong Chunlian, Lin Kai blinked.

The true meaning of "the law does not apply to high-ranking officials" is that even if scholar-officials break the law, they should be punished, but they should not be subjected to lowly physical torture, their dignity should not be publicly humiliated, and they should not be dragged to the marketplace for execution.

You don't think that officials can break the law without being punished or held accountable, do you?

"Female-oriented content really loves to show off its culture, but it's often full of holes..."

Thinking about this, Lin Kai muttered to himself.

I hesitated for a moment.

"Alright, this general will grant your request..."

Lin Kai nodded slightly, and then reached for his waist with his right hand.

His five fingers just gripped the sword hilt.

"So, since Luo Hai ignored me before and you killed him, I'll forgive your previous reckless behavior."
