"When did the Marquis wake up and how is his recovery?"
Jin Feng took the envelope but did not open it immediately.
He could probably guess what Qinghuai would say.
"The Marquis has been awake for a few days and can already get out of bed, but I don't think he looks very good yet."
Liu Yang said: "I heard that the Marquis went to the Marshal's house to ask for help a few days ago and was so angry that his wounds burst open."
After saying that, he added: "Actually, Mr. Hou wanted to come to see you in person this time, but Liu Qiong and I stopped him."
The last sentence is purely to say good things for Qinghuai.
But Jin Feng chose to believe it.
Because he understood Tielinjun's position in Qinghuai's heart very well.
If it weren't for his injuries, the person who led the team to Qingshui Mountain this time would definitely not be Liu Yang, but Qinghuai himself.
"Did the Marquis ask General Fan for help?"
Jin Feng asked: "Is anyone willing to send troops?"
"Yes, the Ansu Army and the Yong'an Army were dispatched. Unfortunately, they were intercepted by the Dangxiang people before they reached Qingshui Valley. There were more than 5,000 people, but only a few hundred people ran back."
Liu Yang sighed.
"Were they attacked by siege engines?"
Jin Feng asked.
"How do you know, sir?"
Liu Yang asked curiously.
Jin Feng smiled and did not answer.
From the top of Qingshui Mountain, you can overlook the entire Dangxiang army camp. When the Dangxiang people were making siege engines, Jin Feng guessed their intentions.
A few days ago, Zhuo Ban led his troops to leave, and Jin Feng also saw it.
I made a rough guess at that time.
I just didn't expect the rescue team to be so careless.
Back in the tent, Jin Feng opened the envelope.
As he guessed, Qinghuai believed that the Tielin Army was forced to retreat to Qingshui Mountain, so he repeatedly emphasized in the letter that Jin Feng should hold on and he would find a way to send people to rescue him as soon as possible.
The words were extremely sincere.
Jin Feng thought for a while, wrote a reply to Qinghuai, and then asked Zhong Wu to find Liu Yang.
"You just came here. I should have let you rest for a few days, but this letter is more urgent. Please go out of your way and get it to the Marquis as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, sir, I will deliver the letter to the Marquis as quickly as possible."
Liu Yang took the envelope and ran away without saying a word.
We didn't stop all the way down the mountain, and in the afternoon we returned to Qinghuai Mansion via the secret passage.
"Why are you back so soon? Has the food been delivered?"
Dozens of people went out, but only Liu Yang came back, and so quickly.
Qinghuai looked at Liu Yang worriedly, fearing that he would hear bad news from him.
"Going back to Lord Marquis, luckily I have fulfilled my destiny and the food has been delivered."
Zhong Wu wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "But I didn't know until I arrived at Qingshui Mountain that Mr. Jin asked Xu Xiao to move all the food to the mountain before the war, and there was no shortage of food.
During the retreat, Mr. asked people to set fire to the tents in the rear camp, making the party members think that all the food and grass had been burned, and now they are still stupidly surrounding the mountain, trying to starve the brothers."
"Sir, you are indeed an expert!"
Qinghuai breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard this.
Qingshui Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. As long as there is food, Qinghuai believes that Jin Feng will be able to defend it.
In this way, Qinghuai doesn't have to be so anxious and can slowly think of ways to find reinforcements.
"Did Sir tell you how long the food on the mountain will last?"
"Sir didn't say anything, but when I was delivering food to the grain depot, I heard Zhong Wu say that there is no problem if you eat it for three months. If you save food, you can eat it for longer."
"Three months..."
Qinghuai frowned slightly.
Before he fell into coma, the food left in the Tielin Army could last for more than a month, which is good.
How is it possible to eat more and more?
The only possibility is that the Tielin Army suffered a large attrition on the night when the Party members attacked.
Thinking of this, Qinghuai quickly asked: "Did Zhong Wu tell us how many brothers we lost that night when the Dangxiang people called?"
"As I said, more than a dozen brothers were lost and more than thirty brothers were injured."
Liu Yang replied: "But I took a look at the brothers practicing on the mountain, and there seemed to be a lot less. Could it be that this guy Lao Zhong deceived me?"
"probably not."
Qinghuai shook his head, and suddenly remembered that Jin Feng had sent the grain to the mountain in advance, and his eyes couldn't help but light up: "Did Sir tell you if he had any plans?"
"No……"
Liu Yang shook his head, suddenly slapped his head, and took out the letter from his arms: "By the way, sir, I brought you a letter."
"If you have a letter, wouldn't you have taken it out earlier?"
Qinghuai kicked Liu Yang and grabbed the envelope.
"Have I not been answering your questions..."
Liu Yang whispered softly.
Qinghuai actually heard his muttering, but was too lazy to pay attention to him and quickly opened the envelope.
Knowing that Qinghuai must be very anxious now, Jin Feng did not hide it from him and explained the plan in the letter.
Qinghuai read the letter in one breath, and the worries that had accumulated in his heart for several days were swept away, and he couldn't help laughing loudly.
As a result, the laughter hurt the wound and he coughed violently.
Liu Yang quickly ran over to help him, but was pushed away by Qinghuai.
"Get ready, let's go to Gray Wolf Mountain immediately."
Qinghuai said excitedly.
Jin Feng said in the letter that Xu Xiao and the main force of the Tielin Army were hiding in Gray Wolf Mountain to carry out their mission.
Although Qinghuai was not asked to take command, how could Qinghuai still hold back?
"Master Hou, if you need anything, just tell me and I will do it."
Liu Yang said: "If you leave too, what will General Fan do if he comes to find you? Besides, Gray Wolf Mountain is not close, and your body..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qinghuai: "Does it mean that if you go to Jiangzuo camp, it will be difficult for me to speak?"
"Master Hou, that's not what I meant."
"Then obey the order and come with me to Gray Wolf Mountain."
"yes!"
Liu Yang had no choice but to bow down and obey the order.
"If General Fan comes to see me, give him this letter."
Qinghuai left a letter to the old concierge and left with Liu Yang through the secret passage.
It was already dark at this time, so the two of them took advantage of the cover of night and rushed to Gray Wolf Mountain overnight.
Qinghuai was injured and couldn't walk fast. He waited until dawn before finally arriving at his destination.
At this time, Jin Feng sat on the big rock on the top of Qingshui Mountain as before, silently looking at the south.
At about eight o'clock in the morning, two plumes of smoke suddenly appeared six miles away from the south.
Jin Feng, who had always been expressionless, suddenly stood up, with a fascinating light flashing in his eyes.
This was the signal he and Xu Xiao had agreed upon.
"Bell five, bell five!"
Jin Feng jumped down from the big rock: "Go and call all the heavy crossbowmen over to me and tell them, come and live!"
"yes!"
Although Zhong Wu didn't understand what Jin Feng meant, he immediately went to call someone.
In Qingshui Valley, a Party grain transport team was escorting carts of grain passing by.
They were escorted by a cavalry of a hundred men.
When we reached the middle of the canyon, a sharp whistling sound suddenly came from above our heads.
The centurion leading the team just looked up and saw a huge arrow coming towards him.
Before he could make any reaction, he felt his body light up and flew up.
