2485: C2485 Be on Guard

C2485 Be on Guard

Lin Yu rode on his horse and walked at the front of the group. His mood was undoubtedly much more relaxed than before. After joining the group of Fengjue Countries, the strength of their group had once again become stronger.

Furthermore, last night, Lin Yu had also personally witnessed the combat strength of the Fengjue Country's army. That was indeed a little stronger than the army of the Great Lu Dynasty, especially in the wild. The other party's combat strength was much higher than his. Having such a powerful 'ally' to leave together was undoubtedly a very reassuring thing.

However, the army of Great Lu Dynasty and Fengjue Country would one day walk together in such a close manner. Becoming an ally was probably something that many people did not expect. After all, more than ten years ago, the Fengjue Country was only a small country, and the combat strength of the army was very low. The Great Lu Dynasty was the Heavenly Dynasty. At that time, the people of the Great Lu Dynasty did not even put the Fengjue Country in their eyes. They had never taken this little brother seriously.

And over the past ten years, the Fengjue Country had developed rapidly, especially the combat strength of their army. It had grown even more terrifyingly. The people from the Great Lu Dynasty suddenly realized... This little brother that they had looked down on in the past had suddenly become powerful. So powerful that they couldn't teach him a lesson anymore. In the past ten years, on the battlefield, Great Lu Dynasty and Fengjue Country had fought countless times. However, most of them ended in failure. The relationship between the two parties was getting tenser and tenser. Now, it was time for the Fengjue Country to not put the army of the Great Lu Dynasty in its eyes.

Therefore, the two armies that came from the two countries in front of them... This was a scene where they would become allies, walk together, and even talk and laugh. No one had thought of this before. After all, in the past, one side was stronger than the other. Both sides had never been equal.

However, it was different now. The Great Lu Dynasty needed peace, and so did the Fengjue Country. Therefore, both parties had the same idea. In order to achieve this goal, both sides naturally had to try to be peaceful and get along with each other equally. Only then did this harmonious scene appear.

However, Lin Yu, Mo Lei, and even Lu Yizha who was lying in the carriage... They all knew about this harmonious scene. It was just an illusion, and it wouldn't last long. The hatred between the two kingdoms... It wouldn't be so easy to resolve it. In the near future... There would be a fierce battle between the two sides.

However, that was something that would happen in the future. At this moment, be it Lin Yu or Mo Lei, they all had smiles on their faces. It was absolutely impossible to tell that they all wanted to kill each other and make a name for themselves.

Lin Yu also understood that this Fengjue Country was still trustworthy. That was why he was able to relax. If someone really dared to attack them, he believed that the people of the Fengjue Country would definitely not sit idly by.

The other thing that made Lin Yu feel relieved was that they had already come out of seclusion. Then, the Rebellion Force that had been attacking them and harassing them earlier... There was no way for them to continue. After all, there was a checkpoint that had stopped them. They couldn't get out of the checkpoint, so naturally, they couldn't continue attacking them.

This made Lin Yu feel much better. To be honest, he had been attacked by those people from the Rebellion Force. Although it wasn't very dangerous, it made him very irritated. He couldn't even rest well. If Lin Yu wasn't protecting Princess Qi and Lu Yizha, he wouldn't be able to rest well. He had been wanting to bring his men and suppress those people from the Rebellion Force for a long time.

Now that the annoying tail behind him was gone, Lin Yu felt much better.

Of course, it wasn't like Lin Yu wasn't worried at all. The bandits outside the pass were the things that he needed to worry about.

Lin Yu had never thought that the bandits outside the pass would be so arrogant. Last night, they actually dared to attack the city and the Great Lu Dynasty pass. Furthermore, they attacked the city together with the people of the Rebellion Force. It was obviously not something that could be planned at the last moment. He must have prepared for it. Therefore, if it was not a coincidence... Then, what happened yesterday indicated that the forces of the bandits outside the pass and Rebellion Force inside the pass... This was obviously not good news.

Furthermore, since the bandits dared to attack the city, they would dare to attack their group. The terrain outside the pass was flat, which made it very suitable for horses to run. This condition allowed the mounted gangsters to advance and retreat calmly. If they wanted to fight, they could fight. If they wanted to retreat, they could retreat. On their side... Besides the people from Fengjue Country, the troops from the pass were mainly infantry. If they wanted to chase after the mounted bandits in such an environment... It was impossible.

Therefore, once the mounted bandits really attacked, all Lin Yu could do was defend. Furthermore, he might not be able to defend against them. After all, the mounted bandits might arrive very quickly, and his team was too large. It would take a lot of time to protect all of them. Those mounted bandits probably wouldn't give him that time.

As for attacking, Lin Yu had no other way. Although his Imperial Guards was full of cavalry, there weren't many of them. Their combat strength was limited. Secondly, Lin Yu didn't want to risk his precious Imperial Guards. If something were to happen again, he wouldn't be able to explain himself when he returned. Therefore, if the bandits really attacked him, Lin Yu could only place his hopes on the Fengjue Country.

The army of the Fengjue Country were all cavalry, so it was best to use them against the horse bandits. Furthermore, that was the army of the Fengjue Country after all, not someone from his own country. No matter how many people died, Lin Yu would not feel any heartache. In fact, he would even feel a trace of delight in his heart.

The key was that Lin Yu didn't know if the people from the Fengjue Country would try their best to fight. It was as if he wanted to conserve his strength. The people from the Fengjue Country might also have the same thought if they didn't fight the bandits head on. And once they chose to conserve their strength, their Great Lu Dynasty's wedding procession... They would definitely be attacked by the horse bandits. After all... The horse bandits loved to attack infantry who had poor defense and mobility.

Last night, Mo Lei told Lin Yu about the identity of the horse bandit. Although Lin Yu didn't believe it, he had some doubts in his heart. After he returned, he found out from the guards of the pass. During this period of time, there were indeed a lot of horse bandits outside the pass. Moreover, these horse bandits were all new faces. At the same time, their combat strength was formidable and their equipment was advanced. They were indeed unlike the mounted gangsters in the past. Those who could become horse bandits were usually those who would not be able to live normally. Thus, they were usually poor and their equipment would not be very good. They also didn't have any discipline.

However, these bandits were clearly not like this. The old faces had disappeared. Now, these new faces, even the generals of the pass did not know who they were or where they came from.

Therefore, Lin Yu also suspected that these new bandits were... Was it really like what Mo Lei said? They weren't horse bandits at all. They were the soldiers of the surrounding countries pretending to be them, and their goal was also to send off their relatives. For Lu Yizha and Princess Qi.

If that was really the case, then the rest of the journey would definitely not be easy. It would be even more difficult than when they were in the pass. Because in the pass, that was their home ground. Furthermore... The Rebellion Soldier did not have horses, so they did not have enough mobility. Lin Yu was confident that he could defeat them.

However, Lin Yu did not have a good way to deal with cavalry. Furthermore, his mobility could not be compared to the enemy's. He could only rely on the Fengjue Country. Although this would weaken the strength of Fengjue Country's army, however, leaving his own safety to someone else... This was definitely not something to be happy about.

When he arrived at the Shaolin, he felt uneasy.

"I hope that those mounted gangsters aren't like what Mo Lei said. I hope that they have already retreated after failing to siege yesterday and won't come and disturb us anymore." Lin Yu prayed in his heart.

Lin Yu, who had been in the military camp for many years, naturally wouldn't give up all hope. He placed all his hopes on prayer, so he prayed in his heart. He ordered his soldiers to be alert and ready to fight at any time. Although it would make one feel tired, it would also slow down the speed of the march. However, this was the most reliable method. Lin Yu did not wish to lead this team. Something unexpected would happen again.

Mo Lei naturally saw the series of arrangements Lin Yu had made. He also had a higher opinion of Lin Yu. He knew that Lin Yu was a person with some real ability, and that he was in contact with those Great Lu Dynasty warriors. There were still some differences between them.

Although Mo Lei would never be careless when fighting a war, however, he had never encountered any famous general in his many years of fighting with the Fengjue Country. In a war, there were many victories and few defeats, especially in the wild. They had never lost before. Therefore, Mo Lei gradually felt that the aura of the Great Lu Dynasty had come to an end. The imperial family was muddle-headed, and the generals were mediocre. A Great Lu Dynasty like this was nothing to worry about.

However, after seeing Lin Yu's series of arrangements today, he realized that... He had truly underestimated the Great Lu Dynasty. It had a large population. It had a vast territory, and it was filled with outstanding talents. Some truly capable people would appear. If he really underestimated them... On his side, he would be at a disadvantage.

While Mo Lei was reflecting on himself in his heart, Lu Yizha was comfortably lying in the carriage to rest. Meeting up with the army of his own country, especially the one leading this army... Lu Yizha was completely relieved that Mo Lei was such a famous commander. In his opinion, as long as his own country's army was around... As long as Mo Lei was around, no matter how many enemies came to attack them... He would be fine with his own country's army. He was very confident in Mo Lei.2

In fact, in his heart, Lu Yizha wanted someone to attack them, and he wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge.
