Chapter 277: General Ling Cao!

In the mythical world, tomb robbing is not just about tomb robbing knowledge, tomb robbing experience, and tomb robbing tools.

Ordinary players who go to tomb robbing will lose reputation, which is bad luck. If the reputation becomes negative, bad luck will continue, and disasters will continue. Even, if you are unlucky, your original attributes, basic attributes, and other physical attributes will be directly deducted. This is the so-called, hurting virtue, and what is hurt is "physical virtue"!

Tomb robbing hurts luck and morality! Otherwise, Lin Mu, who knows the locations of many large tombs, would have opened the treasure long ago!

After relieving his worries, Lin Mu joined the migration army.

…

After Lin Mu and others evacuated Tianyun Village, on the morning of the fourth day, a group of people rushed to the messy Tianyun Village. They were the reinforcements that Yan Baihu brought after his defeat.

Yan Baihu stood beside a heroic general with a gloomy face, very angry, but he did not dare to be too presumptuous, just complained softly: "Looking at these signs, this village has just been evacuated not long ago! If you, Commander Ling, had sent troops earlier, you might have intercepted them. Now look, it's too late!"

The heroic general in the lead was one of Xu Zhao's important generals, Ling Cao, Ling Tong's father! The general guarding the key road of Wushang City!

"Now the battle situation on the front line is tense, we must wait for the enemy to attack once before we can have a chance to send these 200 [Blue Dragon Divine Sword Soldiers]. Since we have returned without success, let's go back early to prepare for the next wave of attacks!" Ling Cao said calmly without any displeasure.

Ling Cao is a big man about 40 years old, more than 190 cm tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, sharp corners, dark complexion, and hands with muscles like dragons, strong and powerful!

Wearing a purple one-piece armor, holding a red tiger-head knife, without a helmet on his head, but with a casual elegant bun, Ling Cao's image is obviously more majestic than Yan Baihu, handsome and heroic.

"Let's continue to chase along the traces, we should be able to catch up!" Yan Baihu still wanted to insist on chasing.

"Look at these bonfire ashes. If my guess is correct, the villagers of Tianyun Village should have evacuated for several days, and we can't track them. Even if we track them, maybe their army is ambushing them, and we will be counter-encircled by them." Ling Cao leaned over and grabbed a handful of bonfire ashes, squeezed it lightly, and said in a deep voice.

Ling Cao disagreed with the pursuit. Ling Cao's responsibility is to guard Wushang City, wait for the soldiers to gather, and then defeat the Han Dynasty army in one fell swoop, march westward, capture cities and territories, and establish an unprecedented merit!

This time, the core troops were dispatched from Wushang City to Taimo City, and then they rushed here overnight. This was to repay a favor to Yan Baihu, and at the same time, they also wanted to fight for the treasure with Lord Xu Zhao. If they still had to chase, it would not be in line with his plan.

Yan Baihu was in charge of the Tianyun Village operation this time, and all the responsibility was on him, and he had nothing to do with it.

"I asked you to lead 50,000 elite soldiers, but you didn't listen. A lion fights a rabbit with all its strength, but you brought so few soldiers here. Now that this situation has been caused, I can't control it. The battle situation in Wushang City and the subsequent actions all need you and me to take charge. We can't delay it any more and fail again!" Ling Cao said in a deep voice.

"You don't have to be afraid of the lord's punishment. Now is the time to use people. If you can make great contributions in the subsequent actions, you will surely make up for it!"

Yan Baihu is a smart man, and he also knows that he was careless this time. If he fails, he will fail. Next, he can only execute the following plan well. Making up for the mistakes is the right way!

Yan Baihu looked around fiercely, hating the remnants of Tianyun Village, Lin Mu, and Li Dian.

"Humph, if it weren't for that Li Dian this time, I would have killed everyone! How could I let these trash escape!" Yan Baihu said angrily.

"Li Dian, Li Dian! It's a pity that the lord failed to recruit him, otherwise our Nanzhao Kingdom's foundation would be strengthened, and the chance of success would be increased!" Ling Cao said regretfully.

As for Li Dian, he was fortunate to observe his sparring with General Xu Huang at that time. Although his martial arts strength was weaker than General Xu Huang, he was able to fight for many rounds before being defeated, which was very rare.

If it were him, it would be difficult to last ten rounds! He is a first-class historical general, and he is not a little bit worse than Xu Huang, an epic historical general.

Hearing Ling Cao's regret for Li Dian, Yan Baihu's anger rose like a volcanic eruption, fierce and fierce! If he hadn't had the ancestral talisman and had used up all the other rare talismans, jade pendants and other props on his body, he would have been killed by the gun!

He lasted dozens of rounds under Li Dian and used up most of his trump cards.

"The force that Li Dian joined should be the mysterious force that captured Dongye County and Juzhang City!" Ling Cao said with certainty.

"Let these rats run rampant in the country for a while, and when the plan succeeds, we must kill these turtles in the jar!" Yan Baihu said murderously.

Xu Zhao's forces did not value the cities of Nanzhao Kingdom too much. They valued several important roads and the assault plan to be carried out.

Lin Mu also guessed that Xu Zhao did not value these cities too much, so he dared to stroke the tiger's whiskers! Lin Mu did not plan to occupy these cities, but acted with the mentality of wanting to plunder and leave.

"Okay, since your action was not going well this time and you have arrived in position in advance, then let's carry out the plan in advance! After being harassed by that dog official Wang Lang for so long, the big knife in my hand has been thirsty for energy!" Ling Cao felt depressed when he thought of his recent fight with Wang Lang.

Wang Lang was a man who killed people and destroyed their hearts. He often preached some great principles in front of the battle, such as the etiquette between the emperor and his subjects in the Han Dynasty. He also insulted Ling Cao's family, saying that they had forgotten their ancestors and abandoned their loyalty, etc. This made him very angry. If Ling Cao had not been patient, tolerant, and steady, Ling Cao would have waved his army and planned in advance to be fooled by this dog official!

And in many battles, Ling Cao was depressed because he had a fierce general to protect him, so Ling Cao had no way to start, otherwise Ling Cao would have shot him to death with one arrow!

Thinking of the extraordinary young general, Ling Cao suddenly had a love for talent!

"When our army waved this ambush, we must capture him and persuade him to join my army! He and my son Tong have many similarities!" Ling Cao thought.

"Tonight we will rest and reorganize at the old site of Tianyun Village, and return to Wushang City early tomorrow morning!" Yan Baihu suggested.

"That's great. Everyone has been traveling all night these days and is quite tired. It's good to rest!" Ling Cao agreed.

"Soldiers, let's set up camp. We will spend the night here and return to Wushang City tomorrow! The ninth and tenth teams will take turns to stand guard tonight!" Ling Cao gave the order skillfully.

"Yes!"

...

The next morning, Ling Cao, who had rested well, commanded his subordinates to return to Wushang City along the original route and did not pursue Lin Mu's team.

In fact, even if they chased, they could not catch up. Even if they caught up, they might be wiped out by the army prepared by Lin Mu! Ling Cao is worthy of being a historical general. He knew that Lin Mu would have an ambush.

Lin Mu had already sent a message to Liu Feng, who occupied Dongye County, asking him to arrange Zhang Xiaohu and Shan Gong to lead 50,000 heavy troops to ambush on the way back to the city. If there was a pursuit, they must be buried here!

...

The wind and sea were calm. After several days of rushing, Lin Mu and others finally returned to Dongye County. However, at this time, a riot broke out in Dongye County!
