The Female General Dominates All After Transmigration-Chapter 166 - 165: Puppy, Two Suggestions

The horse was running a bit hurriedly, Ling Chengyan jumped off the horse, driving the horse to graze by the pond, not letting the horse rush to drink water.

The young soldier finally caught up on horseback, seeing Ling Chengyan and the horse, he let out a long sigh of relief: "Sister Yan, you ride so well."

Ling Chengyan smiled: "During the county competition, I performed horseback archery."

The horse calmed down, no one stopped it, and it went to the pond to drink water and bathe. In the glow of the setting sun, the horse shook its wet mane, scattering pearls everywhere.

The grassland by the pond was especially lush, with plenty of wild vegetables.

Besides watering the horse, the young soldier also brought a basket to pick wild vegetables. The water celery was incredibly tender, easily snapped off by hand without using a sickle, grabbing a handful at a time.

Ling Chengyan watched for a while, but then returned to watch the horse frolic in the water, as the young soldier bent over and gradually walked away along the water’s edge.

Suddenly, the young soldier came running back with the basket, full of joy: "Sister Yan, look, come quick, I picked up a puppy, hasn’t even opened its eyes yet..."

Ling Chengyan startled, opened her eyes, jumped up, and quickly walked over, seeing the little creature in the young soldier’s hands, whining for milk. Its body was small, with warm gray-brown fur, its fluffy little ears still pressed against its scalp, limp and as cute and innocent as can be.

Ling Chengyan’s expression changed: "This isn’t a puppy."

The young soldier was somewhat bewildered, "I’ve raised dogs at home, I know..."

He wanted to explain, but Ling Chengyan waved to interrupt him. Looking at the little creature still held by the young soldier, she turned and whistled. The horse she had ridden shook its mane and ran back from the water’s edge, quickly followed by the others.

Ling Chengyan didn’t bother brushing the water drops off the horses, directly threw the saddle and bridle on, mounted the horse, and called to the young soldier: "Hurry up and go!"

The young soldier mounted, and this time Ling Chengyan didn’t dawdle, directly reaching over to grab the young soldier’s reins, clamped the horse’s belly with her legs, urging it to gallop back.

They raced all the way back to the camp, Zhang Wanxiang happened to emerge from the building, seeing Ling Chengyan, he smiled: "Sister Yan, perfect timing, the buns just went into the pot, ready to eat soon."

Ling Chengyan jumped off her horse, tossed the reins to Zhang Wanxiang, and strode into the building, finding Liu Platoon Leader stationed at the camp: "Are there any soldiers that haven’t returned? ...None, good, call everyone together, prepare weapons, ready for battle."

Liu Platoon Leader was also somewhat puzzled: "Captain Ling, what is this??"

Ling Chengyan closed her eyes: "It’s my fault, didn’t keep an eye on Daquan."

Liu Platoon Leader glanced at Ling Chengyan, took a few quick steps out of the building, then saw the little ’puppy’ still held in Daquan’s arms by the stable!

Liu Platoon Leader’s face changed immediately, his dark rough skin showing a rare hint of pallor.

"Quickly discard it!" Liu Platoon Leader instinctively ordered.

Ling Chengyan said flatly: "We can’t discard it."

Liu Platoon Leader abruptly turned his head to look, his eyes blazing, with an attitude of not letting Ling Chengyan go without a reason.

Ling Chengyan waved her hand: "Once this little thing is picked up, it carries a scent, it’s hard to completely shake it off. If thrown away, and something grabs and eats it, we’ll be even more implicated."

Liu Platoon Leader’s mouth moved, somewhat dejectedly looking at Daquan, who was anxious and terrified: "Fine, just keep it close, don’t concern yourself with anything else."

Seeing the situation, Daquan guessed he had caused big trouble, face pale, looking at Liu Platoon Leader, speaking with a choked voice: "Platoon Leader, one man bears his own actions, the trouble I caused..."

His words were cut short by Liu Platoon Leader’s slap: "Enough, don’t babble here, hurry up... a soldier’s duty!"

Daquan hoarsely responded loudly: "Obey orders."

Finished, he saluted Liu Platoon Leader and turned towards the stable.

Ling Chengyan watched silently without interfering, Liu Platoon Leader didn’t plan to let her off, chased Daquan away, and sincerely asked: "Captain Ling, how do you think we should arrange tonight?"

Ling Chengyan glanced at him, a faint cold snort in her heart, just like Wu Yushu, even halfway along a platoon leader at a camp was like this. Did she seem like a hot-headed young person? With a few good words, she’d charge ahead?

However, the matter concerned the entire camp, and involved her and Zhang Wanxiang’s lives, Ling Chengyan temporarily suppressed her small emotions, offering two suggestions: "First, protect the stable and Daquan; second, try not to engage in active killing."

Liu Platoon Leader frowned tightly, staring at Ling Chengyan, asking her to provide an explanation.

Ling Chengyan glanced at him, said: "Unless a pack of wolves is extremely hungry, they won’t easily attack humans. This time, we accidentally brought back a wolf cub, they will likely come here just to retrieve it."

"Captain Ling," Liu Platoon Leader stared seriously at Ling Chengyan, asking, "how confident are you?"

Ling Chengyan diverted her gaze: "I’m fifty percent confident the wolves won’t attack, but I’m completely certain no soldiers will be harmed."

These words left Liu Platoon Leader stunned for a moment, hurriedly saying: "Captain Ling, don’t misunderstand, I’m not doubting anything, it’s just that the life of more than ten men is involved, we must be cautious."

Ling Chengyan glanced at him, saying flatly: "I don’t treat people carelessly, nor will I abandon comrades, fleeing from battle."

After all, Ling Chengyan was a passerby, she could easily drive off overnight and rid herself of potential danger.

By saying this, Ling Chengyan exposed the most hidden doubt in Liu Platoon Leader’s heart, without leaving any face.

Having his thoughts unveiled, Liu Platoon Leader wasn’t embarrassed, laughed heartily, returning to his usual honest and straightforward manner: "Good, good, Captain Ling rises above men, truly admirable. Come, the aroma of buns is wafting, let’s eat buns!"

Wild vegetable and lamb stuffed buns, fresh and delicious, but most people’s thoughts couldn’t settle, even the fragrant big buns tasted insipid.

Fortunately, the buns had the greatest advantage of being eaten quickly. In about ten minutes, everyone had eaten their fill, as Ling Chengyan, who ate the third bun, noticed that most people only ate four or five buns, which definitely wouldn’t be enough for young men in their prime, merely filling them to about eighty percent.

Ha, this was saving strength for battle.

Ling Chengyan gained some interest: These soldiers were alright, or rather, Liu Platoon Leader had some skill.

The night deepened, clouds obscured the moonlight and stars, the grassland fell into darkness. Looking out, except for the few camp lights, there was no other light visible.

Ling Chengyan took the weapons from the car and placed them by the bed, then lay down fully dressed, falling asleep in no time.

Zhang Wanxiang in the neighboring room fell asleep even quicker, his head hit the pillow, and he was out like a light.

With Sister Yan there, if anything happened, he’d follow her orders, going wherever directed, it wasn’t something he needed to worry about too much.

The soldiers stationed at the camp couldn’t be so carefree, especially Liu Platoon Leader and Daquan, their hearts felt like they were being fried in an oil pan, unable to rest, let alone sleep peacefully.
