The rain on this day has not been heavy, has been falling like hair, sometimes stopped, to dusk, the drizzle stopped, the air is full of fresh breath after the rain, plus the smell of the earth after the rain, mixed together, compared to the floral sandalwood, there is another different smell, smell into the nose, but also make people feel comfortable.

In the city of Xichun, it is full of the existence of soldiers of the city defenders, and the spring garden and the Xichun county government are all heavily guarded by the city defenders.

The Imperial Guards were guarding the two granaries, and there was not a trace of rash action.

I don't know who released the news, many soldiers of the Royal Forest Army already know that their supreme commander, General Han Mohan, has disappeared, and with him, there are Miao Wu and more than a dozen Royal Forest soldiers, these people all disappeared with General Han, and there is no news anymore.

In addition, they also knew that the county government that was originally garrisoned by the Imperial Forest Army had been taken over by the city defenders, and the two sides had a conflict at the beginning, and Xiao Mu, another general in the Royal Forest Army, was also captured and imprisoned by the city defenders because he was outnumbered.

Although the psychological quality of the Imperial Forest Army is second to none in Yan Kingdom, such repeated setbacks still make the hearts of every Royal Forest Army soldier very uncomfortable.

Their dignified Yan noble army had to suffer such humiliation in the small Xichun County, which was like a whip whipping a prisoner in their hearts, and everyone's hearts were full of anger.

But Xue Shao is now the highest commander in the Imperial Forest Army, and the Royal Forest Army, which has always had the strictest military regulations, naturally it is impossible to disobey Xue Shao's orders and cause trouble because of a moment of anger.

Xue Shao's orders were firm and clear, sticking to the two granaries, and without his orders, no soldier of the Royal Forest Army could act rashly.

Iron orders, iron soldiers to obey.

Although such an order was handed down, the grief and indignation in Xue Shao's heart was not weaker than that of any Imperial Forest Army soldier, and in the past two days, he had always sat quietly in the tent, clenching his fists, and looking at the saber on the table in a daze.

At this time, it was dusk again, the sky was dark, and the tent was even darker, just after the second batch of relief food was distributed today, Xue Shao sat in the tent tiredly, put the saber on the table in front of him, and then looked at it in a daze.

His beard has been messy, and in the past, he would always be proud of his beard, and always felt that men should have this bold beard, so that they could be domineering and masculine.

As for his beard, this rude man is very careful to maintain it, and he has to repair it with a special knife almost every day, so in the past, his big beard did make him look majestic and domineering.

But since Han Mo's disappearance the day before yesterday, his beard has never been repaired, which makes his beard look messy, and there are even grass ashes stuck to it, extremely sloppy, with his tired face, if it weren't for a royal forest armor to support the façade, he looks like a beggar.

In the past two days, he hasn't slept even a minute.

Han Mo is missing, Miao Wu is missing, Xiao Mu is arrested, and he is the only one left with the four generals and deputy generals of the Royal Forest Army, he understands the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he also understands that the disappearance of the other three people is by no means accidental, it can only be that there is a big net behind the scenes, and this big net is to capture the Royal Forest Army headed by Han Mo.

The more this happens, the more he realizes how important he is now, he must maintain the normal order of the Imperial Guards, and he must do his best to lead the Imperial Guards to fulfill their duties this time.

He knew better in his heart that since the other party was able to set such a big trap and make the three Royal Forest generals disappear and be caught, then the other party must also want to defeat the last Royal Forest general, maybe they have been setting up a trap and waiting for opportunities, once they fall into the trap of the other party, the Royal Forest Army is the real group of dragons without a leader.

At that time, the angry Imperial Foresters will easily be provoked and used by others, and do something that should not be done, then they will fall into the trap designed by others, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Therefore, Xue Shao reminded himself that he must hold on, and he must be 120,000 spirited, and beware of the enemy's means at any time.

His spirit has been in a high state of tension, how can he sleep, and how dare he fall asleep?

He even felt that when he did fall asleep, he might never wake up again.

An unprecedented pressure had been enveloping his heart since Han Mo's disappearance, and it was only at this time that he truly admired that young man from the bottom of his heart.

No matter what kind of danger he encountered, no matter how dangerous the situation was, the young man could talk and laugh freely, and solve it like a light breeze.

It takes amazing wisdom to do that.

Xue Shao thinks that on the iron-blooded battlefield, he can be fearless, he can move forward, even if he gives up his life, he is fearless.

But this kind of political game, this kind of power struggle, I really can't play it.

Not to mention the offense, in the battle for power, he has even struggled to defend.

Moreover, in this kind of alternative battlefield, it is not that you have the fearless courage to sacrifice your life to win, on the contrary, sometimes the fearless death on this battlefield will not only fail to win, but will become a tool used by the enemy, making your death meaningless or even worse.

There is no doubt that that group of people is looking forward to their own death at this time, but although they have the courage to sacrifice at this time, they cannot do so, which is the helplessness of the power struggle.

In addition to courage, this kind of struggle requires careful wisdom, wisdom to perceive opportunities, and decisive decision-making!

……

At noon, Xue Shao even received a sensational news that Su Keyong, who had come to Yichun to thoroughly investigate the tax corruption case, committed suicide last night.

Suicide in fear of sin, that's the explanation that came out!

Xue Shao felt that things could never be as simple as they came out, and there must be an ulterior secret in the middle.

When Han Mo was there, he and Su Keyong formed a joint trend, which was something that many people knew, and as the general beside Han Mo, Xue Shao naturally understood the trick.

After Han Mo disappeared, Xue Shao not only secretly sent people to search around, waiting for Han Mo to return, but also hoped that Su Keyong would really be able to withstand the blow of the He clan, at least before Han Mo returned, there would be no bigger changes.

In Xue Shao's heart, he never thought that Han Mo would be killed.

In his heart, that young man is witty and intelligent, and he is strong in martial arts, and he will not be easily hurt if he does things without thinking first, and he may have encountered setbacks for a while, but he will come back soon.

But Su Keyong's death suddenly put Xue Shao under even more unprecedented pressure.

In addition to losing a major ally, on the other hand, it also shows that the He clan can do anything at this point, since Su Keyong can die, then Han Mo ......!

Xue Shao tried his best to calm down, he immediately thought of Eunuch Ling, at this time, he could still play a little role, and the only one who could restrain the He clan was Eunuch Ling.

He immediately made a decision, went to Spring Garden, and asked to see Ling Lei.

But this time, Chunyuan did not give the general of the Imperial Forest Army a trace of face, the door was closed, Xue Shao called the door, but no one responded, and gave Xue Shao a closed door.

The He clan is already blatantly arrogant, or their original intention is to provoke Xue Shao and let Xue Shao cause trouble because of anger, so that they will have an excuse and reason to deal with Xue Shao.

Xue Shao was indeed angry, but this man was not carried away by anger at such a critical moment, he suppressed his anger and left Spring Garden with his subordinates.

His approach may have disappointed the people of the He tribe.

……

The tent became even darker, and Xue Shao finally sighed and shook his head: "Brother Han, where have you been?" You're not coming back, old man...... I can't hold it anymore, brother! ”

After a long period of high mental tension and a long time of beware of the traps set by the enemy, this man who has always been rough and arrogant is really a little unbearable.

Xue Shao felt that his eyelids were about to droop uncontrollably, and he knew that he was too tired and sleepy.

The tent was suddenly lifted, and the originally dim tent suddenly became bright.

"Can you find any news about your adult?" Xue Shao didn't raise his head, and asked directly.

At this time, the only soldiers who dared to disturb him were the soldiers who came to report Han Mo's whereabouts, because he had already ordered that as long as there was news of Han Mo, no matter when, he would report to him as soon as possible.

However, this time no one answered.

He heard the faint sound of footsteps coming towards him.

As a soldier's vigilance, Xue Shao immediately became alert, he remained silent, his left arm was still supporting his head, but his right hand below was moving slowly, the footsteps were approaching, Xue Shao raised his right hand suddenly, grabbed the handle of the saber on the table with great accuracy, and pulled it out at an extremely fast speed, the blade was forward, his person had already stood up, his beard was up, and a pair of tiger eyes stared ahead, full of murderous aura.

He was sleepy, and at this moment, he seemed to have turned into a lion full of strong combat power!

He stared at the comer, his hands trembling.

"Brother Xue!" The person who came was dressed in casual clothes, holding an oil lamp, with a gentle expression and a smile on his face, "Thank you for your hard work!" ”

Xue Shao rubbed his eyes in disbelief, for a while, his eyes turned red, he slowly put away the knife, took two steps forward, hugged the person who came suddenly, and patted his back hard, "You...... Where did it go? You...... It's finally back! ”

The person who came smiled and said calmly: "I'm not coming back, how can I take you...... Fight the enemy! ”

This person, of course, is Han Mo!

p Thunderous counterattack, kill!
