Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 875 Can You Let Me Wait to Cross the River?

The two men urged their horses to rush towards the Zhenxi No. 2 warship, followed by hundreds of guards.

Because the warship was still more than ten feet away from the river bank, the people on the warship were not nervous when they saw a large number of war cavalry rushing over.

Many of Lin Feng's guards, holding shotguns, leaned on the side of the ship, watching Qiu Jie and his men approaching with vigilance.

Qiu Jie asked the guards to step behind him, and he rode forward, bowing and speaking.

"General Qiu Jie of the Taisho Imperial Army has come to pay his respects to General Lin Feng of the Zhenxi Army. Please inform me of this. Thank you."

Lin Feng nodded slightly after hearing the guard's report.

"This Qiu Jie is not bad, he is a general with brains."

Pei Qiyin smiled and said, "It's rare for the general to praise someone. Should we meet him or not?"

"It would be better to meet, so that both sides don't waste time here."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked to the right side of the boat, holding the railing and looking down.

Qiu Jie finally saw Lin Feng, and his heart was suddenly filled with emotion.

Such a young man, with a warm and sunny face.

Who would have thought that it was this man who killed all of his tens of thousands of powerful Black Turban Army without mercy.

He has suffered a psychological trauma from the beating. Even now, he still wakes up from his dreams and cannot sleep peacefully.

"General, I'm ashamed that I can't understand your intentions. Please enlighten me."

The two sides cannot be said to be hostile now, let alone friends, so Qiu Jie did not waste any words and went straight to the point.

"General Qiu, you're too polite. I was just fishing here because I had nothing better to do. Those guys disturbed my fish, so I just gave them a little punishment."

Qiu Jie forced a somewhat awkward smile, knowing that Lin Feng was unwilling to tell him the purpose of his visit.

"General, can you allow us to cross the river and return to Kyoto?"

Lin Feng was surprised and said, "Ah, General Qiu is going to cross the river? Don't waste time here, please."

Qiu Jie was angry. If you don’t say anything, how can I cross the river?

"Um... can those boats cross the river and take us across?"

Lin Feng turned his head and glanced at the east bank of the river. The boats of the Cao Gang were still gathered together, and no one knew what they were doing.

"These guys are unreliable. General Qiu should find another ship. I'm afraid they might take revenge on you."

Qiu Jie opened his mouth, unable to speak.

Jing Zhaoheng bowed and said, "General Lin, we have no grudges against these people, so why would we seek revenge? As long as you agree, we can allow their ships to cross the river and take people."

Lin Feng turned and looked at him: "I wonder who this is..."

"Oh, the Taisho Imperial Army General Jing Zhaoheng."

"Haha, I've heard a lot about you, General Jing. You've also seen that those guys are not convinced and are gathering by the river to plot something bad. I, Lin, am planning to destroy them."

"what?"

Jing Zhaoheng also had a shadow in his heart. How could such a sunny-looking young man be so cruel and sinister?

It was clearly your boat that rammed their boat, so how can that be considered as their doing something bad?

Lin Feng waved his hand. "You don't know, these gangs have monopolized the ferry and fishery resources of Jinjiang. They are very unfriendly to the people. I have wanted to deal with them for a long time."

Qiu Jie said with a sad face, "General Lin, they are the only ones in the entire Jinjiang River who can ferry us across the river."

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Look at what you said. We can do it too. My family has a boat. We can take you across the river."

Jing Zhaoheng quickly said, "Really? Then there's General Lao Lin."

Qiu Jie felt sad. This meant he didn't want us to cross the river at all. Who would dare to take his boat?

Lin Feng smiled and waved his hand: "You're welcome, Wen Jian, quickly mobilize the boats and ferry the Taisho Imperial Army across the river. Remember to negotiate the price."

"Yes, General!"

Qiu Jie quickly shook his head: "No, no, no, I won't bother General Lin anymore. Just tell me straight out, how can we cross the river?"

Lin Feng nodded, this Qiu Jie is smart.

"General Qiu, I, Lin Feng, am still considered a member of the Dazong clan. Seeing so many refugees, I feel very sorry for them. How about you, the Dazheng Imperial Army, cross the river and let these people stay here?"

Qiu Jie had already judged that Lin Feng had this purpose, and he felt even more bitter.

He also knew the importance of these people.

The city of Kyoto was a deserted one. All the people and officials had fled, leaving only an empty city for them.

What will happen if there is no one in the city? The emperor is also very unhappy.

These tens of thousands of people just fill the gap and make Kyoto City more popular.

Qiu Jie thought for a moment and knew that he could not get past Lin Feng.

"General Lin, there are several important criminals from the Dazheng Dynasty among them. Can we take them back to Kyoto?"

Lin Feng stretched himself and said, "Oh, whatever you guys do. I'm going fishing."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Qiu Jie was immediately dumbfounded. If you don’t agree, then don’t agree. Why don’t you continue the discussion?

"Hey... General Lin, wait a minute. Only our Taisho Imperial Guards, 30,000 men, will cross the river. We won't bring anyone else with us."

Lin Feng stopped and turned to look at Qiu Jie.

"Alas, since you've abandoned so many people, I can't just watch them starve to death. I can only reluctantly provide them with a place to stay."

"Yes, General Lin has a compassionate heart, and I admire him."

Qiu Jie didn't want to talk to Lin Feng at all, and didn't want to stay for even a moment longer.

Lin Feng said modestly, "General Qiu, thank you for your compliment. You should hurry up and find a boat to cross the river."

After saying that, he turned to Wen Jian and said, "Go and inform Jingxi Prefecture to provide people and food to resettle these people in Jinggao Prefecture. There are fewer people there, more land, and many vacant houses."

Wen Jian said yes and turned around to tell someone to send out a notice.

Qiu Jie bowed and said goodbye, then led his men back to the military camp.

"Humph, this Lin Feng, I'm afraid he has been prepared for a long time."

Jing Zhaoheng said angrily.

Qiu Jie sighed, "What a clever trick! This time, not only did he rescue the prisoners, but he also assigned Jinggao Prefecture to his Zhenxi Army."

"How can you be so shameless?"

Qiu Jie shook his head: "If the Taisho Dynasty had such strong ships and powerful guns, who would dare to say a word of objection?"

"Are we giving up just like that?"

"if not?"

Qiu Jie frowned and stared at Jing Zhaoheng.

"If we continue to confront each other, not only will our food and fodder run out, but we won't have any further supplies. Are we going to starve to death here?"

"Your Majesty can't just ignore it, right?"

"Of course the Emperor wants to help, but how do we get the food across the river?"

"That..."

Qiu Jie waved his hand to interrupt Jing Zhaoheng.

"Go, quickly send someone to contact the Cao Gang and transport the Dazheng army across the river. I will explain to the emperor later."

This mission was a complete failure. Not only did the Taisho Imperial Army suffer tens of thousands of casualties, but not a single prisoner was captured.

Both Daimong and Taisho lost.

It just allowed Lin Feng, the fisherman, to gain the greatest benefit.

When Lin Feng was returning by boat, he finally got off the boat at the Cannes Pier, came to Cannes, and visited the weathered old Hu.

When Hu Jincai saw Lin Feng, he almost burst into tears. All the torture he had endured these days was turned into smoke by Lin Feng's words of concern.

"Old Hu, thank you for your hard work."

"Hey, hey, boss, Lao Hu is not tired, not tired..."
