Chapter 855 Strategy
Lin Xiao's consciousness was floating in the darkness, as if he was in a turbulent whirlpool, with countless fragments of memory surging wildly in his mind. One second ago, he was still debugging a new song in a modern recording studio. The next second, severe pain came like a tide, and his head seemed to be hit repeatedly by a heavy hammer, and each time it shook his soul. The pain was sharp and long, as if it was going to crush his consciousness completely. After an unknown amount of time, the severe pain finally eased a little. Lin Xiao slowly opened his eyes, and the dazzling light made him squint subconsciously. When he got used to the light, he was horrified to find that he was lying on an unfamiliar bed. The sheets under him had a faint smell of camphor, and the fabric was rough but thick. Everything in the room was weird. The old wooden wardrobe was covered with faded stickers, and the carvings on the cabinet door were a little blurred; against the wall was an equally old desk, with crooked handwriting engraved on the desktop, and it was unknown which owner had left it. There were yellowed posters on the wall. He had never seen the stars in the pictures wearing bell-bottom pants and permed hair. Their faces were filled with confident and flamboyant smiles, and their eyes were full of the vitality and enthusiasm unique to that era. On the table beside the bed, an old-fashioned radio was playing a melodious song: "For you, I suffer the cold wind, and shed tears when I am lonely..." The familiar yet unfamiliar melody made Lin Xiao's heart tremble suddenly. "Where is this?" Lin Xiao muttered to himself, his voice so hoarse that he could hardly recognize it. He widened his eyes in horror and sat up suddenly, but because of his hasty movement, he pulled his head and made a "hiss" sound in pain. This sudden pain made him more sober, and he finally realized that he might have encountered something incredible - traveling through time. He searched the room in a panic, and the items in the drawer were in a mess. In addition to a few old clothes, there were also a few magazines with frayed edges. The covers were popular stars in the 90s. Those hairstyles and dressing styles reminded him of the era he was in. Finally, he found a calendar in the corner of the bottom drawer, which clearly showed May 1990, 5. "How is this possible..." Lin Xiao muttered to himself, full of shock and confusion. His fingers tightly grasped the calendar, and his joints turned white from the force. He fell to the side of the bed, trying to recall everything before he fell into a coma. In modern times, he was just an unknown little singer, running between the recording studio and the rental house every day, struggling desperately for his dream. But now, he has traveled to 15, a completely unfamiliar era.
Arrows rained down like raindrops, but Su Mingtang remained calm and commanded the soldiers to use the terrain to dodge. She found that the enemy's rear defense was weak, and immediately offered advice to Xiao Yanhan: "General, you can send a team of elite soldiers to make a detour and disrupt the enemy's position!" Xiao Yanhan stared at her for a moment, and suddenly ordered: "Su Mingtang, this general orders you to lead 300 cavalry to detour from the right wing!" Su Mingtang tightened the reins and galloped away with the cavalry. The battlefield was filled with smoke and the sound of fighting was deafening. She waved her sword and led the soldiers to rush into the enemy formation like a tiger. In the melee, a cold arrow shot at her. At the critical moment, Xiao Yanhan rushed to block the arrow for her. "Why save me?" Su Mingtang looked at his bleeding left shoulder, and a strange emotion rose in her heart. Xiao Yanhan snorted coldly: "This general doesn't want to lose his wife on his wedding day and make people laugh." But Su Mingtang knew that from then on, Xiao Yanhan looked at her with something different in his eyes. The war became increasingly tense, and the enemy mobilized heavy troops to besiege Yanmen Pass. Xiao Yanhan discussed with the generals how to defeat the enemy, but he still had no clue. Late at night, Su Mingtang paced in the camp, looking at the stars in the sky, and suddenly remembered the "fire attack" method she had learned in her previous life. She found Xiao Yanhan overnight and elaborated on her plan in detail: "General, the enemy's food and grass are stored in the Wild Wolf Valley. We can attack at night and set fire to the food!" Xiao Yanhan pondered for a long time and finally decided to give it a try. Su Mingtang took the initiative to lead the death squad to the Wild Wolf Valley. They took advantage of the night to sneak into the valley, lit torches, and the fire spread instantly. The enemy was in chaos, and Xiao Yanhan took the opportunity to lead the army to attack and defeat the enemy. In this battle, Su Mingtang became famous. The soldiers no longer called her "Madam Su", but respected her as "General Su". Xiao Yanhan looked at her high-spirited appearance in the army, and felt a little proud in his heart. However, just when the war was slowing down, bad news came from the court. The emperor was seriously ill, the prince was young, and various forces were ready to move. Xiao Yanhan's political enemies took the opportunity to impeach him for holding his own troops and intending to rebel. The emperor issued an order to summon Xiao Yanhan to return to Beijing immediately to report on his duties. Xiao Yanhan knew that this trip was more dangerous than good, but it was difficult to disobey the emperor's order. Before leaving, he entrusted the military affairs of Yanmen Pass to Su Mingtang: "I'll leave it to you. If this general..." He paused, "You will take the soldiers to the King of Southwest. He is upright and will not treat you unfairly." Su Mingtang looked at his firm eyes and felt warm in his heart: "General, don't worry, I will defend Yanmen Pass and wait for you to return." After Xiao Yanhan left, the enemy learned the news and gathered troops to attack Yanmen Pass again. Su Mingtang stood on the city wall, looking at the dark enemy army, without any fear in her heart. She commanded the soldiers to strengthen the city defense, set traps, and invented a simple catapult, which caused huge casualties to the enemy. But the enemy's offensive was too fierce, and Yanmen Pass was in danger. At the critical moment, Su Mingtang thought of the "empty city plan". She ordered people to open the city gates, let the old, weak and sick sweep the ground at the city gate, and she ambushed on both sides with elite soldiers. Seeing this, the enemy did not dare to enter the city rashly. Just as they hesitated, the reinforcements of the King of Southwest arrived, and Su Mingtang cooperated with the inside and outside to defeat the enemy. At the same time, in the capital, Xiao Yanhan was caught in the conspiracy of his political enemies. He was under house arrest in the mansion, and his life was in danger. After Su Mingtang learned the news, he left his deputy general to guard Yanmen Pass, and personally led 5,000 cavalry to rush to the capital day and night. When she appeared outside the capital with her army, the ministers in the court were shocked. Su Mingtang broke into the palace alone and saw the emperor on the sickbed. She reported the border wars, Xiao Yanhan's loyalty, and the conspiracy of political enemies one by one. The emperor looked at the heroic woman in front of him and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that such a wonderful woman would appear in my Great Sheng Dynasty!" In the end, the emperor ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, and Xiao Yanhan's injustice was cleared. He and Su Mingtang stood side by side in the palace hall, looking at each other, with trust and love in their eyes. After the war, Xiao Yanhan resigned from the military and retired to the countryside with Su Mingtang. But their story has left a strong mark in the history of the Great Sheng Dynasty. People say that General Xiao married a good wife who not only guarded the border for him, but also saved his life. And Su Mingtang, from a substitute wife, grew up to a female general in troubled times who was famous in history.
