Chapter 176 Raid
Chapter 176 Raid
Song Chunlin did not return to his room immediately, but walked out of the government office and headed towards the street.
Although it is called the White Pagoda, there is no tower in the city. The whole city is backed by a steep mountain and built along the mountain. Looking up the mountain from the center of the city, one can vaguely see several hollow caves on the cliff. Song Chunlin could not see it clearly, and after switching to mental power, he found that they were a bunch of statues of flying goddesses.
Song Chunlin looked at the lifelike goddesses and couldn't help but marvel at the craftsmanship of the craftsmen, who were able to carve so many flying goddesses on such a steep cliff.
The government office was in the center of Bai Ta City. When Song Chunlin entered, he went through the south gate in a carriage. There were not many people on the main road of South Street, and the crowds were mainly concentrated on the east and west sides.
After turning a corner along the main road, Song Chunlin first headed towards the Xicheng District where shops were lined up. The residents here were living relatively normally, and various shops were still open, but there were obviously fewer people buying things. In most shops, there were only a few guards busying around, and no clerks or shopkeepers. It was unknown whether they had all gone out to escape.
After walking along the straight and wide main road, Song Chunlin turned on his heel and entered another smaller alley.
Unlike the streets outside, there are more small vendors here, and there are some hawking sounds from time to time, which makes it more lively.
Similarly, there are more refugees here than on the streets. Ragged refugees can be seen sitting on the street almost everywhere. They all hold bowls in their hands, but they don't beg. They just sit there quietly.
Although Song Chunlin was a little curious, he didn't dare to go up and ask alone. He just walked out of the street slowly at a normal pace.
Although Bai Ta City is not big, it is impossible to walk around it in one day on foot, so Song Chunlin was tactful enough to return to the government office before dark.
General Qi was relieved when he saw him come back. God knows how shocked he was when he heard that this little ancestor ran away alone. If Gu Fengyue hadn't stopped him, he would have sent people to look for him long ago.
Seeing Song Chunlin returning safely, he couldn't help but get angry and started scolding him. Song Chunlin was stunned. It was the first time he was scolded like this in person after being in this world for so long. His eyes suddenly became red.
Gu Fengyue had just received the news that Song Chunlin had returned. He was just about to go to the front hall to pick him up for dinner when he heard General Qi's angry scolding as he walked to the corridor. He thought something was wrong and walked quickly into the front hall, only to see Song Chunlin's eyes were red from being scolded, looking so pitiful.
"General Qi!"
General Qi was awakened by Gu Fengyue's angry shout, and then he remembered that this little ancestor was Gu Fengyue's man.
"General Qi, Chunlin is not a soldier under your command. Please show some respect to Chunlin."
These words showed no mercy to General Qi. Before General Qi could say anything, Gu Fengyue had already taken his companion back to the backyard. General Qi realized belatedly that he seemed to be ignored.
Gu Fengyue didn't care what that person was thinking behind his back. He only remembered that Song Chunlin's eyes were red, and he had obviously suffered a great injustice. He quickly took people back to the room.
Perhaps because he was following someone familiar, Song Chunlin felt a surge of grievance from the scolding he had just received, and he shed a few tears.
Gu Fengyue was so heartbroken that she hugged Song Chunlin and patted his back awkwardly.
"Okay, okay, stop crying. I'll scold you back tomorrow, okay?"
Song Chunlin buried his head in his arms and shook his head with difficulty.
"No, I'm going to give him a laxative so he doesn't have the energy to curse anymore."
"Okay, okay, I'll give him a laxative later, so he won't die from diarrhea."
Walking to the door, General Qi was struggling whether to go in and apologize: "............"
Okay, okay, so I'm just a part of your play, right?
Of course, Song Chunlin did not really give General Qi a laxative. Of course, this was not because he had calmed down, but because the war was now tense. If General Qi collapsed at this time, Gu Fengyue would have to take over.
As for Zhu Chengyu, this useless guy who is incapable of accomplishing anything and always causes trouble, he is still lying in the military camp recuperating from his injuries.
Song Chunlin wanted to end the war as soon as possible, so that night, his mental power sneaked into the enemy's camp and controlled the mutated plants to kill everyone.
Today's Turks have become vigilant, but that is only outward-looking. They would never have thought that the enemy would be an inconspicuous little grass in their military camp.
Taking advantage of the cover of night, Song Chunlin killed five captains in one breath. Although he was just a small official, he was in charge of a lot of people. When one of them died, the people under him became chaotic. In addition, people kept dying one after another in the military camp, and even the strong men began to become afraid.
Those people spoke Turkic, which Song Chunlin could not understand, but this did not prevent him from searching for lone soldiers and strangling them.
In the end, everyone summed up their experience and gathered together. Song Chunlin then regretfully withdrew his mental power and allowed the mutated plants to return to the earth.
However, not long after Song Chunlin stopped, General Qi led his men to attack. Bai Ta City was not far from here, and General Qi led a small group of men to take a shortcut and ran for most of the night, just to surprise attack the enemy camp in the second half of the night.
After Song Chunlin noticed this, he rubbed his hands excitedly and began to search for his target in the melee among the crowd.
The Turks thought that the assassination in the first half of the night was done by General Qi and his men, so they were very angry. General Qi was not a pushover either, and the two sides fought and were evenly matched for a while.
Song Chunlin was among these people. He would occasionally trip the Turks or directly entangle their weapons, putting these people at a disadvantage.
General Qi himself could not help but feel that although the Turks tonight were brave, they seemed to be particularly stupid. They often tripped over their own people, or couldn't even hold their weapons steadily, and died in vain at the hands of their own people.
If General Qi could understand Turkic, the screen would probably be filled with swearing, each one harsh and ear-piercing.
Song Chunlin was having a lot of fun. He roamed freely between the two armies, harvesting the heads of the Turkic soldiers. Some Dajing soldiers found that the people they were fighting with suddenly fell down. They were a little panicked at first, but they quickly adjusted their mood. No matter how they died, they would now regard it as if they were killed by them. Anyway, it was fine as long as the dead were not theirs.
Because it was just a surprise attack, General Qi did not want to fight any longer and decided to quit while he was ahead. At his special whistle, the Dajing soldiers turned their horses around in a well-trained manner and ran back the way they came. Song Chunlin looked at some Turkic soldiers who had been beaten to a low health and itched to go up and give them a final blow.
