Leaving the post-war mess to Ding Lin, Lin Hai went straight back to the First Army’s central camp.
Ding Lin went crazy the moment he knew Lin Hai was going into battle.
The appearance of Lin Hai's flag on the battlefield was a great encouragement to low-ranking officers and soldiers, but for Ding Lin and his regimental commanders, it was a huge irony!
Look, ah, look.
Look at you guys, you're bragging all day long, but in the end you ended up with such a mess of a fight.
The Khmer King has fallen into this state, but he is still sitting comfortably in the city of Bangkok. And you, in order to deal with a mere Qin Shou, you actually have to ask Qinghebo to take action himself.
So when the flag signaler told Ding Lin that Qinghe Bo personally led the charge at the position of the First Regiment, he immediately rushed everyone on the command platform to the battlefield except for him and a flag signaler. If he didn't make an effort at this time, there would be no need to make an effort.
It can be said that if Ding Lin had not thought that Lin Hai had entered the battlefield temporarily and had not established overall command, he would have rushed forward with a knife.
However, Lin Hai did not escape Ding Lin.
After all, it's a mess, and there are plenty of people to clean it up.
Lin Hai had just taken a rest in Cheng Guorong's tent. Before he could even put the barbecue that had just been served into his mouth, Cheng Guorong quietly entered the tent, waved his hand, and dismissed everyone in the tent.
Seeing this, Lin Hai could only nod at Shi Zhen'er and ask her to go out and take a look.
Cheng Guorong was quite embarrassed. After all, within the Qinghe Army, the First Army and the Third Army could be considered healthy competitors. Now the commander of the Third Army rushed out of his tent and knelt on the ground.
He knew it because Lin Hai was there, and Ding Lin was kneeling to Lin Hai.
If you don’t know, you might think that Ding Lin is finally going to propose to Cheng Guorong.
I just wonder if once these two senior officers get married, half of Qinghe’s armed forces will become one family, which will bring some potential risks.
However, whether it is the laws of the empire or the local regulations of Qinghe, there seems to be no clause prohibiting two men from getting married, so...
Pah pah pah...
This is just overthinking.
Ding Lin's kneeling alarmed too many people.
Although everyone was afraid to get too close due to their status, it was still not a big problem to watch from a distance, or pretend to be busy and walk past quickly. As long as you kept your eyes straight and kept your ears open, you would be fine.
Based on the above situation, Cheng Guorong could only send out his guards to drive away the surrounding soldiers as much as possible.
Well, you guys have so much free time and are willing to sit here and watch, right? Then go dig a tunnel under the city. Anyway, the tunnel has been dug for many days, but the progress has not been ideal. It would be great to have someone to help.
But Cheng Guorong really couldn't say anything for Ding Lin.
To be precise, whatever Cheng Guorong says at this time will be wrong, so he might as well not say anything.
Anyway, with Shi Zhener here, there is no need to worry about no one to pass on the message.
"Brother Lin, Ding Lin is kneeling outside." Shi Zhener took a look at the door and then retreated.
Lin Hai hummed, then waved to Cheng Guorong and said, "Take the barbecue back and add some chili."
Cheng Guorong quickly took the barbecue and walked out.
At the door, Ding Lin, who had rushed over on horseback, was sweating profusely. He wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeves. For a moment, his entire face was covered with mud. This scene happened to be seen by Cheng Guorong who came out with barbecue.
Cheng Guorong first glanced back to confirm that the door of the tent was closed, then looked around to make sure no one could hear him. Then he squatted down and whispered, "Why don't you get some blood on your face? Mud and water alone might not be enough for this level."
After saying that, he picked up a piece of barbecue with two fingers and stuffed it into Ding Lin's mouth, continuing, "I know you can't handle spicy food, so this one is spiced. Hurry up and eat a few bites. I'll get another spicy one for the principal later."
Ding Lin didn't bother to talk to Cheng Guorong. He chewed a few mouthfuls of food at lightning speed and swallowed them. After catching his breath, he said, "The principal knows I didn't go into battle. If there's blood, it would be counterproductive. You know, the principal strictly forbids senior officers from personally going into battle."
"He didn't do it himself."
"That's why I'm kneeling here."
"That's right. The principal often said that he wasn't an officer. At most, he was called 'Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces,' which was probably the Grand Marshal of the Army."
"Isn't the Grand Marshal an officer?"
"He's the principal, he has the final say."
"Too."
Ding Lin wanted to grab some barbecue and eat it himself, but he looked at the mud on his hands and was worried that they would smell like barbecue, which would be difficult to explain, so he said, "Come on, give me a few more pieces. I don't know how long I will have to kneel today."
Cheng Guorong fed Ding Lin some barbecue and whispered, "What's wrong with you? Why did you ask him to go into battle himself? Is the situation really that difficult?"
"I didn't know at first. Although the fight was a little difficult, we were sure to win. At most, Yang Yizhen and Qin Shou might get away."
"And the finale?"
"That old bastard Yang Yizhen saw that the First Regiment had blocked their retreat, so he ran away without even waiting for us to raid his camp. But Qin Shou was captured alive."
“What a pity.”
"It's a bit of a pity, but I think I know why the principal is angry."
"Oh? Why?"
"Aside from my poor on-the-spot response, we interrogated Qin Shou and his personal guards. He was the one who went to Old Qinghe County that year. So..."
