Chapter 536: War Begins (1)_1
"What?" Several Tatars exclaimed in surprise.
Especially, the young man in the middle who seemed rather restless. As spies for the North Country, they knew all too well how significant the news brought by Ma Zhicai was. For years, they’ve been spying in Northern Land, focusing only on the movements of King Ling’s army and some major strategies in Northern Land. They never once paid attention to the agricultural activities there.
Everyone knew how barren the land in Northern Land was. For years, even the North Country did not know how many people had hoped to succeed in farming there. But who had ever succeeded?
Now, a woman in Northern Land had not only succeeded in planting rice and wheat but also another kind of crop?
They had been too careless! The advancement of agriculture indicated that King Ling would no longer have to worry about lacking provisions.
And provisions were the backup of war. In the past, the soldiers in Northern Land had barely enough food and clothes, so it was easier for the North Country to attack. But if King Ling had a large amount of provisions, they would be in a much more difficult state.
Watching the fluctuating expressions of the Tatars, Ma Zhicai smirked even more internally. Huh, look down on him? They must be worried now.
"Lin Ziyin not only assisted Chu Suifeng in farming but also brought her a lot of silver." He continued to fan the flames, wishing the Tatars sitting in front of him would immediately roll back to the North Country and bring their army to eliminate Chu Suifeng.
Once King Ling was dead, the good days of Lin Ziyin would come to an end.
