He had not seen his mother for seven or eight years. Lin Yi naturally understood that a loving mother missed her son.
Before Lin Yi transmigrated, his oil painting skills were not bad. The oil paint used in this world was similar to oil paint.
Lin Yi was confident that he could completely tame Qin Hu's heart with a portrait oil painting.
That night, the scouts sent oil paint
and a surprise!
"The messenger will pass by at midnight tonight. Captain Lin, you can pass the letter to me at that time.”
Lin Yi nodded.
"It's just that I'll have to trouble the two of you. This time, I have two letters to send to different places."”
"No problem, leave it to us.”
Lin Yi told Qin Hu to dress up nicely. He sat in the tent and started writing.
Two hours later, Qin Hu's portrait was completed.
Qin Hu looked at himself in the oil painting. He was almost the same as the real person. He was shocked by Lin Yi's painting skills!
"Yes! It's too similar!"
Qin Hu even suspected that Lin Yi had captured one of his souls and branded it in the painting.
It was because such a vivid portrait was completely different from the landscape and fine brush paintings of their era that Qin Hu had such a reaction.
[Ding! You have completed an oil painting and triggered a 57 times critical hit. Your oil painting skills have greatly improved!】
F * ck, this works too?
His oil painting skills had improved greatly after he painted it once?
Lin Yi suddenly thought that if he consummated his marriage with Jin 'er…
would his skills improve a lot?
After helping Qin Hu write a letter home, he attached an oil painting and silver taels. Lin Yi also wrote a five-page letter home himself. Most of it was about his life in the military camp with Ning Jin 'er and how he missed her.
Late at night, the scouts quietly arrived at Lin Yi's tent and took away the two letters.
"The two brothers are risking breaking the military law. Take this small amount of silver, don't think it's too little.”
Lin Yi gave each of them five taels of silver. After giving them proper instructions, he also attached the rewards he had obtained from killing the enemies to the letter. The two scouts left overnight…
Seeing the scouts 'receding figures, Qin Hu muttered in his heart,
"Brothers, are they reliable?"”
"We have to report every entry and exit of the military camp. Only these scouts can come and go without any hindrance or suspicion. Don't worry, as long as they aren't intercepted by the Wu Dynasty army, the letters will definitely be delivered!”
That night, Lin Yi observed the celestial phenomena. There was going to be a great drought!
The hotter the weather, the faster the water in Jiangyang City would recede. A big battle was probably coming!
As expected, when the third battalion was training the next morning, the scout arrived again.
"Captain Lin, a rainstorm suddenly fell in Qingdu the day before yesterday. General took advantage of the unstable situation of the enemy and led 5,000 men to launch a surprise attack on the enemy overnight. He beheaded more than 2,000 of them. There are still 1,000 deserters in Qingdu who have fled to various places. There is a great thing in this. It is right in front of us."”
"Great news?" Lin Yi asked doubtfully
.
"Yes, Qingdu is 90 miles away from Jiangyang. When we were gathering information today, we saw a group of Qingdu deserters. There were about 20 of them, and they actually had 16 warhorses in their hands!”
"Warhorses? Did you see it clearly?"
"Look carefully. They are all fine horses from the Western Regions. You know that this horse is a treasure in the eyes of the general. If you capture it and present it to the commandant, it will definitely be a great merit!”
Lin Yi was ecstatic. These were all good horses from the Western Regions!
What was the most important resource in a war?
One was grain, and the other was warhorses!
If the scout could tell him about this first and let him get his hands on these sixteen horses, Lin Yi's roast meat and silver were really not wasted!
"Thank you, both of you. This is a great merit for me. I don't have anything else, but I'll give you two bottles of divine-grade saber and sword medicine for emergencies.”
The two scouts were also extremely excited. The divine-grade medicine for the third camp had become a legend.
Lin Yi actually gave them such precious medicine. The two of them immediately expressed their intentions
.”
"We're all brothers, so there's no need to be so formal all the time.”
"Then the two of us will acknowledge you as our big brother.”
These two scouts were older than Lin Yi, but they became Lin Yi's underlings. It was a little funny when he thought about it.
After returning to the tent, Lin Yi immediately gathered his troops.
"The 7th, come out with me. The 8th, 9th, and 10th, come out. Come out with me!"”
"Yes, sir!"
Lin Yi gathered twenty people and went to Qin Hu's tent.
"Brother, why are you in such a hurry?”
"I won't hide it from you, the opportunity to make a fortune has come. As long as we do it fast, accurately, and ruthlessly, the 3rd Battalion will have cavalry.”
"What?"
"
Brother, you're going to get warhorses?" Qin Hu slammed the table in excitement. Where?"
"You stay in the 3rd Battalion. I've written a passage document and you need to stamp it.”
"It's on the table. Cover it yourself. In the future, don't ask me about this kind of thing. If you want to use the Centurion Seal, cover it yourself.”
Lin Yi stamped the document and led a team of twenty people to march quickly. Every time they reached a checkpoint, they would take out a document stamped with Qin Hu's seal. The journey was smooth.
They had already arrived after an hour.
According to the scout's report, Lin Yi indeed found traces of the enemy in a hidden valley.
These were the soldiers of the Wu Dynasty who had fled here after the defeat of Qing Du, as the scout had said. Lin Yi ordered two archers and three of his own bows to quietly hide near the valley's water source.
In the distance, sixteen warhorses of the Western Regions were tied to the side, grazing leisurely.
Lin Yi and the others were waiting for an opportunity to kill the other party in one blow…
(I went to the hospital for an IV drip because of a serious cold, but I ended up being tormented for the entire afternoon. I didn't update today, please understand.)
