Cheng Ling decided to go around to the rear of King Linhai's army first.

There is a higher mountain over there, and Cheng Ling intends to go to that mountain first.

The hoofs of the jujube red horse were quiet, galloping briskly in the darkness, and after a while, Cheng Ling arrived at the foot of the mountain there.

She got off the horse, patted the neck of the jujube red horse gently, and whispered: "Old man, you've worked hard for you, you can rest at the foot of the mountain and wait for me to come back."

After she finished speaking, she fed the jujube horse two more candies.

The jujube red horse licked and ate, and a pair of wet horse eyes looked at Cheng Ling in the dark, as if spiritual.

Cheng Ling originally wanted to tie its reins to the tree next to it, but seeing this look, for some reason, her heart suddenly softened.

In the end, Cheng Ling gritted his teeth and gave up the tether. Before leaving, he only murmured, "If you really want to leave without waiting for me, then let's go, just consider our fate to be exhausted."

Follow me, you're not doing well either...

Cheng Ling turned around and entered the forest, and then quickly climbed up the mountain.

The mountain is very steep, and there is only a small piece of green woods at the foot of the mountain. Further up, there are cliffs and rocks, and there are almost no pedestrian paths.

Cheng Ling is like a dexterous ape, taking the cliff as the road and gradually ascending the mountain.

Compared to the time when he was in Lu County, he had to rely on climbing ropes to climb the mountain. Now Cheng Ling, who has added three more points of agility, really has a sense of lightness like the wind under his feet.

At the same time, Cheng Ling was still adjusting her breathing during the climbing process. In the Five Animal Shows left by Grandpa Mu, the body of the ape was more and more integrated into her every movement, which made her heart full and calm, and she felt Wonderful.

Cheng Ling stopped when he was in the middle of the mountain, and the view here was already very good.

She stuck her body in a shallow recessed rock crevice on the mountain wall, leaned back against the rock crevice, and took out the telescope.

Looking down from above, the vision is really different.

At the foot of the mountain, the sleepless city of Chixia is like a pearl lying quietly beside the Jade Belt of Shenchuan, and the lights in the city are lit up.

On the side facing the water, it is quiet, but on the side of the mountain, there is a fierce beast divided into two strands, and only in the direction closest to the city, the two strands are twisted together.

It is in a ready-to-go attitude, with its ferocious fangs open, ready to swallow the bright pearl of Chixia City in its belly!

Cheng Ling silently judged in his heart: Judging from this scale, how many people can King Linhai's army have?

There is definitely no army of 100,000, so what about 50,000?

50,000 may be about the same, but not all of these 50,000 are combat troops. The logistics of accompanying the army are essential. For example, Cheng Ling saw that——

She saw that in a military tent embedded in the low mountain outside the city behind the navy, there were several tents, which were very different.

Those tents are extraordinarily large, and soldiers enter and exit from time to time. When entering, the soldiers tended to move eagerly, and when they came out, their footsteps were generally more leisurely.

Suddenly, a team of attendants who looked like guards came over. They entered the tent, and when they came out, they brought out a few women!

The women who were brought out were all dressed in cool clothes and slender.

The attendant army took them to the direction of the central army tent.

Cheng Ling immediately understood: This, this is probably the legendary army... trick camp?

King Linhai was marching, and at a critical moment like the attack on Chixia City, he actually brought a military trick camp, and even made fun of it?

It's absurd, it's pathetic, but it's still logical.

A plunderer who can rebel, slaughter cities, and savagely destroy everything, what can he not do?

Cheng Ling observed it for a while, carefully reading the arrangement of the Linhai King's army, and finally, a crazy and bold decision was formed in her heart.

There was not much time for Cheng Ling to hesitate and regret. After making a decision, she immediately set off and climbed down the mountain again.

Going down the mountain is more difficult than going up the mountain. Cheng Ling's route down the mountain is also different from the original route up the mountain.

These mountains outside the city are one after another. The low mountain where King Linhai's army is stationed is just to the west of the mountain that Cheng Ling climbed, but she originally took a detour from the south.

The west side is steeper, and it is simply a natural danger.

This time, Cheng Ling had to resort to climbing ropes and grappling hooks.

The stars were dim, and the moon had not yet come out. Cheng Ling faced the night wind, like a delicate fallen leaf, and finally went down the mountain with the wind.

Fortunately, there were not many soldiers guarding the military trick camp, and most of these sparse people were absent-minded. Cheng Ling quietly came to the back of a camp under the shelter of the mountains and trees.

This tent was chosen for a reason.

Because Cheng Ling discovered that the attendants who went back and forth several times, every time they wanted to bring military tricks, were selected from this camp.

And this camp, other soldiers did not enter.

After Cheng Ling came to the tent, he first listened to the movement inside.

There was no obvious sound inside, just listening to his breathing, Cheng Ling could roughly hear that there were about fourteen or five people in the tent.

This is a bit troublesome, Cheng Ling frowned slightly, and was thinking about the opportunity to sneak in, when suddenly, someone in the tent that had been quiet for a while wept softly.

A woman's voice cried softly: "I don't want to die, I have a marriage contract, I..."

"Don't cry." Her words were interrupted, and another voice said very softly, "Cry out loud, heard by people outside, and you are going to die now."

The female voice that cried first stopped immediately.

But her crying broke the silence in the tent. Although no one cried anymore, the chatter in the tent gradually increased.

A woman said: "Although I don't have a marriage contract, I have a favorite husband."

Another woman said, "Does your favorite man have mine? The one I like, he can read, and quietly writes poems on the kite, and then pretends to drop the kite in my yard."

"..."

The thin female voices spoke of the beauty of Mu Ai when she was young, as if to add the last touch of color to this hopeless life.

Until one person said, "What's the use of being good? In short, sooner or later, we will all be selected. Who will come back alive when we go to King Linhai?"

There was no sound in the account.

In the silence, Cheng Ling took out his saber and quietly cut through the military tent from the rear.

When she sneaked into the military tent, the women with their backs to her didn't even notice her existence.

Until she touches a woman behind her, threateningly puts a knife around her neck with one hand, and puts the other up on her lips.

Someone suddenly felt something, turned around and saw her, and was about to exclaim.

Cheng Lingdao: "Shh... If you want to live, keep your voice down."
