Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 1006: Bring a cook along when robbing?

Lin Feng said with a wry smile: "Let's eat some barbecue first, I'll get some more dishes for the next meal."

Yan Xiaoding finished the remaining water spinach in a few bites, took two steps forward, reached out and grabbed Lin Feng's sleeve and shook it.

"Let's go now. I'll go with you to pick the vegetables, okay?"

As one of the leaders of the Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan, how could Lin Feng refuse when he acted in a begging and coquettish manner towards a cook?

There was no choice, so in full view of everyone, Lin Feng took Yan Xiaoding and led the warhorse and walked out of the city.

More than 130 miles northwest of Long County, there is a mountain called Longfugou. More than 50 miles east is the saline-alkali land by the sea.

This place has been uninhabited for a long time since the invasion of pirates, so there is naturally a lot of water spinach. We are not afraid of not having enough to eat, but we are afraid of not being able to finish it all.

The two of them quickly pulled out a large pile of water spinach, then found a clean place to sit down and rest.

The war horses were turned loose and allowed to find green grass on their own.

Yan Xiaoding looked into the distance, where the sea was, connected to the blue sky in a line.

"Master Shu, do we really need to go through all the trouble of exploring the environment when we're robbing a pirate's cart of salt?"

She was still brooding over Lin Feng's words.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Maybe I'm used to cooking. I like to make full preparations for everything. Only then will the dishes I make be delicious and popular."

"Well, you're right, but we, the Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan, have always been straightforward in our actions. We kill and rob without any twists and turns."

"Otherwise, why am I the cook and you guys the heroes?"

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly.

"Well, you cook well, and we, the grassroots heroes, enjoy our lives."

"The blade is bleeding, be careful."

Yan Xiaoding shook his head in disdain: "Since we are on the brink of blood and knife, how can we expect to be safe? People like us are just rough people, we can't compare to great heroes and great men."

“Great heroes and great men often come from humble beginnings, rising step by step with blood and soul.”

Yan Xiaoding's eyes lit up.

"Master Shu, you've heard of Lin Feng, right? He was originally a frontier archer, but he embarked on a brilliant and dazzling journey to the top."

Lin Feng looked up at the blue sky and white clouds, muttering to himself.

"Don't tell me, he really went to heaven."

"Nonsense, he won't die. Just wait and see. I will definitely find him."

Lin Feng turned his head and looked at Yan Xiaoding in surprise.

"Where are you going to find him?"

Yan Xiaoding raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the sea.

"He went to the sea, went east from Yingjian Gorge, followed the river channel into the mouth of the Mi River, and then drifted into the sea and disappeared."

"I heard he was killed."

"Tsk, an old fellow from Kunyu Mountain went out to spread rumors in the martial arts world to flatter himself. Just relying on her?"

Yan Xiaoding said gritting his teeth.

"The masters of the hidden sects should not be slandered. Be careful of the walls and ears."

Lin Feng was really worried about her safety. After all, she was his little fangirl. If someone heard about it, it would be easy for those people from the hidden sects to kill an ordinary person in the secular world in anger.

"Don't worry, I'm not someone you can easily mess with."

Yan Xiaoding said nonchalantly.

"My eldest daughter is also a master disciple of a hidden sect. If this old witch dares to mess with me, I will make her suffer."

Lin Feng bowed: "Oh, no wonder you are so calm and composed, it turns out you have a solid backer."

Yan Xiaoding was in high spirits when she talked about her eldest brother, but when she heard Lin Feng talking, she instantly became depressed.

"Alas, Lin Feng encountered difficulties, why didn't he come to me? I could ask my brother to protect him, it's annoying..."

Lin Feng asked carefully: "What sect does your elder brother belong to?"

Yan Xiaoding glanced at him and said, "Don't ask around. We ordinary people are not even ants in their eyes. You'd better just be a good cook."

Lin Feng shrugged: "I don't want to do anything else."

Yan Xiaoding looked at Lin Feng's actions, feeling a little confused.

"Master Shu, judging from your demeanor, you really don't look like a chef."

"What do I look like?"

Yan Xiaoding shook his head. "It's a complicated feeling. He looks like a high-ranking official... No, he should be a master with special skills... But not, um, it's someone... I don't know."

Lin Feng stretched out his thumb and shook it at Yan Xiaoding.

"You have a good eye. Actually, I'm a skilled cook."

Lin Feng approached Yan Xiaoding with a serious expression and gently uttered the last two words.

"Ah, puff, giggle...hate..."

Yan Xiaoding pushed Lin Feng to the ground and stood up to pick up the water spinach on the ground.

"Let's go, I want to eat this dish."

The salt field controlled by pirates is located on the coastline south-east of Quzhou Prefecture, more than 300 miles away from the prefecture. It is the only salt-producing area in Quzhou, Ganqing and Changzhi prefectures.

This place is heavily guarded. Every time salt is transported, there are more than 1,200 guards. The salt they are guarding is much more important than silver.

The salt-carrying convoy was escorted all the way from the salt field to Quzhou Prefecture, and then divided into two teams, one heading to Ganqing Prefecture and the other to Changzhi Prefecture.

The plan of the Seven Heroes of the Yan family was not to rob the salt carts at the source of the salt field, but to rob the salt transport convoys along the way between Quzhou Prefecture and Changzhi Prefecture.

After leaving Quzhou Prefecture, this group of salt carts headed north, passing by the foot of Longfugu Mountain. Longfugu was the best location to intercept the convoy.

Although the Seven Heroes of the Yan Family did not have a detailed map, they were familiar with Longfu Hill and were often hunted by pirates, so they had to hide in the mountains.

Therefore, in this place, they robbed the pirates' salt carts and then hid in the mountains, making the pirates angry but helpless.

Yan Xiaoding told Lin Feng these things on the way back.

The Seven Heroes of the Yan Family is an organization of chivalrous men and women, and is inherently very loose. Of course, we cannot expect them to be compared with the Zhenxi Army.

Lin Feng also knew that if such a military action plan was casually told to a cook like him, it would be considered a major criminal case in his Zhenxi Army.

Leaking military secrets is punishable by beheading.

Lin Feng also thought about this problem. He didn't know how far their intelligence work had progressed. How could they know when and where the pirates' salt transport convoy had arrived?

How will the seven heroes of the Yan clan deal with the pirate army that outnumbers them by several times?

Yan Xiaoding didn't even know that it was all arranged by Yan Xiaoyi. They just followed orders and charged into battle.

After the two returned to Long County, Yan Xiaoding ate the oil-mixed water spinach that Lin Feng had hurriedly prepared, praising it loudly while comforting Lin Feng in a low voice.

"Don't worry, we are very familiar with Longfugou. We will rob the salt carts and run into the mountains. The pirates can't do anything to us. All you have to do is follow them. You don't have to do anything."

Lin Feng didn't care at first, but when he heard this, he looked at Yan Xiaoding in surprise.

"Why, you're robbing a salt truck and bringing a cook with you?"

Yan Xiaoding chuckled: "Originally, I didn't need to bring you along, but think about it, you're the only one here who knows how to boil fine salt, and the most important thing is..."

"And the most important thing?"
