Lin Yan galloped all the way towards the territory of Qingzhou Mansion. This could not be reached in a short time, after all, it almost spanned the whole government.
He pushed the war horse under his crotch almost to the extreme, just to send the news out in the shortest possible time.
The ferocious energy caused by just killing a group of barbarian cavalry gradually died down after the initial explosion. Instead of dissipating, it was temporarily suppressed. Once you encounter a similar situation, you will quickly explode!
Now the situation is urgent. Originally, the distance between the two provinces was more than 200 to 300 kilometers, and a normal journey would take about a day and a night. But under Lin Yan's hurry, it only took a few hours.
However, there is a price. At the moment of arrival, the poor war horse was foaming at the mouth and was about to die!
In the end, it took its last breath, but at least it completed its mission and sent Lin Yan to his destination.
Lin Yan slowly closed its eyes with his hands, silently silently saying, "Rest in peace!"
Unexpectedly, the war horse's eyes could not be closed all the time. Lin Yan's heart moved and he said: "Will you die with your eyes closed? You shouldn't! Yes, it must be an illusion!"
He tried several times in succession, but the war horse's eyes still couldn't close, and the big eyes were filled with an inexplicable emotion.
If the war horse could still speak at this time, he would definitely curse: "The donkeys in the production team don't dare to do this! They are using me as an animal!"
"Okay! Although horses are indeed considered livestock. However, this is too much!"
"I never want to see this guy again in my next life. I hope there is no Lin Yan in heaven!"
As the person involved, he was still deeply impressed by the fact that the war horse tried its best to help him deliver the message, and said in his heart: "It is indeed a war horse! Although I followed the barbarians before, I corrected my mistakes when I realized it, and it is still a good horse!"
"It's just a pity..."
After a moment of silence, Lin Yan turned around and left without hesitation. After all, time is precious right now and every second counts!
Although Qingzhou Prefecture is still far away from the border, so the review of entry and exit is not so strict. However, Lin Yan's soldier uniform looked dusty, so it was naturally impossible for the guards guarding the city to just let him in.
"Where did you come from?" Chengwei asked.
"I am Yan Ling from the Cavalry of the Jiazi Battalion of Cangzhou Prefecture. I am here to deliver urgent military information. Take me to see your commander quickly!" Lin Yan said urgently.
The city guard raised his eyebrows and said: "From Cangzhou Prefecture? Brother, are you lost? Look clearly, this is the boundary of Qingzhou Prefecture. If you want to report, you should also go to your superior!"
Lin Yan said: "The barbarians invaded in large numbers, and Cangzhou Prefecture may have fallen by now!"
The city guard was shocked when he heard this: "What!" Then he looked at Lin Yan's dress and felt a little suspicious.
The young-looking boy in front of him was wearing the military uniform of the Tang Army. However, what he said was too shocking!
Perhaps it was because it was so shocking that Cheng Wei's credibility in his words was reduced a lot.
You must know that under the rule of Emperor Tang, although there was no devastating offensive against the barbarians, the two sides also maintained a relative balance.
In recent years, barbarian intrusions on the border have become increasingly frequent, but no large-scale conflicts have broken out. They seem to be restrained.
Even if the barbarians suddenly launched an invasion, how could such a huge territory like Cangzhou Prefecture be completely captured in an instant? This is too alarmist!
Seeing that the city guard remained motionless for a long time, Lin Yan frowned and said: "The military situation is urgent, why don't you report it?"
The city guard said: "It is precisely because the matter is so important that I need to confirm your identity! What if you are pretending to be someone else? Falsely passing on military information is a serious crime!"
Lin Yan said patiently, "How long will it take?"
Chengwei curled his lips and said, "Just wait!"
The city guard reported to a person who looked like a team leader. The latter waved his hands after listening, and then didn't see any action. He just said something to the people around him from time to time.
Lin Yan waited for at least a stick of incense, but no news came. At this time, he understood Wu Qi's mood at that time.
"How about you tell me something? What's going on just hanging here?" At this moment, Lin Yan's heart was full of negative emotions.
At a certain moment, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "What on earth do you say?"
The city guard said nonchalantly: "I've already gone to report it. Don't you understand if I ask you to wait?"
Lin Yan completely exploded at this moment. If it were normal, that would be fine, but what time is it now? The whole territory of Cangzhou Prefecture is in danger, how can I have time to spend time with him here?
"There are only so many of you here, and no one has left since just now. Is it possible that the ghosts are reporting? Or are you able to send messages across thousands of miles?"
"Since you won't report, then get out of the way and I'll enter the city by myself!" Lin Yan said.
The city guard stared and said, "What are you doing? This is the boundary of Qingzhou Prefecture, and this is not a place where you can run wild! Retreat quickly, otherwise your life will be at risk!"
Lin Yan's eyes were slightly cold, and the aura from his body instantly emitted, like a sharp blade unsheathed, he said slowly: "Get out of the way!"
The city guard was so frightened by Lin Yan that he felt that if he didn't give way, he would die at the hands of the man in front of him in the next moment.
He couldn't help but take a few steps back, and then his face couldn't help but turn red. This is his base camp, how could he let outsiders intimidate him? He wanted to say something angrily, but the words that came to his lips could not come out. After all, Lin Yan's aura was too scary!
The city guard turned to the rear and shouted: "Someone is making trouble! Come on, come and catch him..."
When one's own strength is not enough to cope with it, calling friends is a good way. This is also the way of survival for most people.
The squad leader heard the shouts of the city guards. With a wave of his arm, several city guards gathered around him and immediately surrounded Lin Yan tightly.
The squad leader said: "See, you are also a soldier, why are you so ignorant of the rules? Okay, after we capture it, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your commander, so that you don't do it again in the future!"
Listening to the meaning of his words, it seemed that Lin Yan had figured it out. In fact, if an ordinary soldier were faced with such a situation, he would have no choice but to give in!
Unfortunately, he met Lin Yan!
As soon as the captain finished speaking, Lin Yan took action and knocked the group of people to the ground in an instant, including the confident captain. Even Lin Yan's sword has not been unsheathed.
"What's going on? Where did this person come from? Why is he so fierce?" This was the question in the minds of all the city guards on the ground at this time.
In full view of everyone, one of his own team members was knocked down by one person. This was extremely embarrassing!
With the strength Lin Yan showed just now, even if they get up, they will still be knocked down and they will not get up!
A senior person said it well: "Lie down wherever you fall." This is also true. Lying down wherever you fall is not lying down!
They also saw that this guy with a bad temper was a tough guy and a tough guy. So everyone was lying on the ground pretending to be cowardly and not daring to get up.
Just make so little money, why go to such lengths? This includes their squad leader.
But Lin Yan didn't seem to want to let him go. This guy seemed to be a little boss after all, and he might be of some use. So Lin Yan reached out and picked him up, just like lifting a little chicken. It seemed like he didn't have any effort at all.
"What are you going to do? I'm telling you, don't mess around!" said the squad leader.
Although he wanted to warn Lin Yan, his tone of voice was weak. In fact, this can't be blamed on him. After all, Lin Yan's performance just now made him unable to resist.
Even if you try your best, the final result may be that you get beaten even worse, so you should be more cowardly to avoid getting beaten, right?
"Lead the way!" Lin Yan said.
"Where to go?" the team leader asked doubtfully.
"City Lord's Mansion!" Lin Yan said.
He finally understood that these guys below were used to showing off their power to the people, and they didn't do much at all! Moreover, this physical fitness is really too weak!
If it were the brothers in their camp, they would definitely not be knocked down in an instant, and they would not dare to continue to resist.
It's all because the soldiers on the front line of Cangzhou Prefecture are resisting the pressure that these guys can be so comfortable.
In the military camp, it was very taboo to report reports beyond the level, but now that the matter was urgent, Lin Yan could not care so much and went directly to see their chief officer.
If you were in your current status as a soldier, that would be impossible. It's better to beat the snake and follow it with a stick, and make the matter bigger. As long as there is a movement, I don't believe that the chief official of Qingzhou Mansion will not get the news!
Lin Yan carried the captain of the city guard team and asked him to lead the way, while he followed behind.
The people gave way one after another and kept talking, while the soldiers in the city were as if they were facing a formidable enemy. After all, no one dared to cause trouble here!
As we walked forward like this, the team leader felt his face was getting hot and he was really embarrassed. But he still led the way honestly. After all, this guy was not an easy character to get along with. Who knew if he would suddenly take action.
If he angered him and gave him such a knife, even if others took down Lin Yan, he wouldn't be able to see it!
Of course, it is obviously unrealistic to just go all the way to the City Lord's Mansion. After all, not everyone here is full of wine and food!
Soon, Lin Yan was surrounded by a group of heavily armed soldiers, who had obviously come after getting the news.
Then, the soldiers separated, and a man wearing armor who looked like a general walked out slowly on horseback. He looked at Lin Yan with sharp eyes and said, "I am Malu, the captain of the Qingzhou Prefecture Guard Camp. Can I help you?" Tell me, let him go first!"
Lin Yan raised his head and glanced at him, then loosened his hand and let go of the captain of the city guard team. It was not that he was afraid of him, but that someone was coming who could speak to him.
Let's talk to him first. If he still looks like this, then capture him too. I don't believe that no one will care about him!
The captain of the city guard team rolled and crawled behind the soldiers. After regaining consciousness, he began to complain to Malu. It’s true that “the sky has cleared up, the rain has stopped, and he feels like he can do it again!”
Malu frowned slightly, but he didn't fully believe this person's words. After all, they were in the same city, and he knew the virtues of these city guards very well.
He turned his gaze to Lin Yan and said, "Say it!"
Lin Yan then recounted what had happened before, including the current situation in Cangzhou Prefecture and the city guards' lack of performance in their duties.
When he heard that Cangzhou Mansion was in danger, Ma Lu glared, but it was at the city guard captain. He also worked hard on the battlefield. Unlike this guy, he knew that he should die to apologize for delaying the opportunity!
"Damn it! I'll report it to the master of the palace, and then I'll deal with you!" Malu said sternly.
As soon as these words came out, the captain of the city guard team collapsed on the ground as if his strength had been drained. If he alerted the palace lord, his fate would probably not be much better.
Then Ma Lu said to Lin Yan: "Boy, come with me to see the master of the palace and report to him directly!"
Malu is the captain of the guard camp, and he is directly responsible to the master of the palace, so he has this power.
Lin Yan nodded when he heard this, thinking that there was finally someone who understood the truth, so he didn't have to do it himself!
Then, Lin Yan got on the horse directly and said to Ma Lu's astonished eyes: "Don't you have to hurry up? Let's go!"
Malu cursed in his heart: "You really don't know anyone else!" Where had he seen such a bold soldier?
However, the military situation was urgent, and they couldn't care about so much at the moment. The two of them galloped towards the city lord's palace...
