The masked man in the ambush soldiers, who could it be if it wasn't Zhu Xiaoyan.

Zhu Xiaoyan walked slowly, looked at Han Mo a few times with his eyes under the mask, and finally a rare smile finally appeared in the depths of his eyes, and said, "I have always felt that even if a person like you comes out in person, it will be difficult to take you away." ”

When Han Mo saw Zhu Xiaoyan, although he looked calm and calm, he was very excited in his heart.

He knew in his heart that Zhu Xiaoyan must have brought the remnants back to the army camp, so he turned back to find himself.

He followed the group of mountain bandits along the way, and saw that everywhere he passed was extremely complicated places, and finally even came to this strange valley, and knew that the group of swallows in front of him must have set a trap here.

He wasn't sure that this group of Yan people was Zhu Xiaoyan, but there was no doubt that they were his own people.

Hou Biao sent two subordinates to follow Zhu Xiaoyan's gang, which was equivalent to letting two rabbits follow a group of wolves, but without asking himself, Zhu Xiaoyan must have discovered that someone was following, and then restrained it, and then set up a suspicious array to lead the group of mountain bandits here to annihilate.

The two sides gathered here, and they didn't say much, knowing that this was a place of right and wrong after all, and immediately turned north.

Zhu Xiaoyan is already very familiar with this road, familiar with the road, except for occasional stops and rests along the way, he is in a hurry day and night, and after two days, he walked out of the mountains, and after two days, he has left the boundary of Shannan County.

After leaving the mountains, the people he saw hid and saw groups of men with swords and bows heading north, as if they were going to join the army in Kyoto City.

Han Mo and the others were either in short shirts or wearing Wei army armor, while Zhu Xiaoyan and his party were dressed in strong clothes, these people didn't speak, and others couldn't distinguish their accents, and many people thought that they were going to Kyoto City to participate in the war, and even greeted each other when they saw each other, but the journey was also very smooth.

At the end of this day, I saw the majestic Evil Yang Ridge from afar, waving the flag, and the group sped up, and when they got close to the Evil Yang Ridge, they found that there were not many tents, and there were soldiers in the camp who saw Han Mo and his party, and immediately shouted happily: "The general is back, the general is back!" “

Soon, Han Mo saw Wan Qiqing leading several generals to come in a hurry, and said respectfully: "General, you can come back, everyone has been worried!" ”

On the way, Han Mo also heard that the Yan army had reinforcements increased later, with a total strength of nearly 100,000 people, but looking at the area of Evil Yang Ridge, although it was not clear how many people there were for a while, it was far from being possible to have 100,000 people, and asked: "Wan Qian General Soldier, is Governor Han in the camp?" ”

Wan Qiqing hurriedly said: "General, Governor Han has already led his troops to Wei County two days ago, and the last general is to take 5,000 elite soldiers to defend the Evil Yang Ridge, so as not to fall into the hands of others. ”

Han Mo nodded, and Wan Qiqing said again: "The general has worked hard all the way, go back to the camp first to rest for a while, and the last general will immediately order someone to prepare food." ”

Even after walking for days, everyone was very tired, and they didn't say much, Han Mo and the others first took a bath in a mountain spring pool in the Evil Yang Mountains, washed away the blood stains and fatigue on their bodies, and changed their clothes, and then ate a full meal.

After eating, Han Mo summoned Wan Qianqing to inquire about the situation, and Wan Qianqing said: "The Qing army has sent several envoys to this side, imploring our army to march into Wei County. It was only because our army's reinforcements and grain and grass baggage could not arrive in time that Governor Han did not send troops for a long time. A few days ago, the 50,000 troops from the country reinforcements arrived, and the grain and grass baggage also followed, if the troops were not sent again, the Qing people were dissatisfied, but it also made the Wei people have too much time to prepare, but it was not easy to deal with, so two days ago, the governor of Han finally ordered the whole army to advance, and now I am afraid that it is about to arrive at the border of Wei County. This Evil Yang Ridge is an important place in Suiding County, and Governor Han was worried that someone would sneak attack here, so he led 5,000 soldiers to garrison here, or the last general was old and old, so Governor Han handed over the Evil Yang Ridge to the last general! ”

Han Mo's expression was solemn, he pondered for a while, and finally asked, "Chief Soldier Wan, do you know that the people of the Wind Country seem to have also attacked!" ”

"Wind Countryman?" Wan Qiqing was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "General, this ...... It's true? The last general has never heard of it? ”

Han Mo thought for a moment and said, "For the time being, the general can't be sure, but if the Wind Country really sends troops, presumably there will be news in the next few days!" It's just that he knows in his heart that it is true that the Wind Country sent troops, otherwise it would be impossible for the Shannan Army to turn around without certainty.

Wan Qiqing said: "General, the movement of the Wind Country, the imperial court will definitely pay attention, if the Wind Country sends troops, once the imperial court learns about it, it will soon inform the general!" After a pause, he finally asked cautiously: "General, I heard that I went to intercept Sima Haoyue this time, and the general and brothers...... Got ambushed? ”

Han Mo remained silent, stared at Wan Qianqing, and said lightly: "General Wan Qian already knows?" ”

Wan Qiqing nodded and said, "When the leader of the Wind Cavalry came back, he reported the matter to Governor Han, and the last general was present at the time, so he ......!" ”

Han Mo knew that he was talking about Zhu Xiaoyan, and said, "What he said is right, we did fall into the trap set by Sima Haoyue. ”

Wan Qiqing frowned, thought about it slightly, and finally didn't say anything, just gave up and was about to retreat.

"Wait!"

Han Mo calmly shouted: "General Wan Qi, you seem to have something to say, you might as well say it directly!" ”

Wan Qiqing hurriedly shook his head and said, "The general misunderstood, actually...... In fact......! ”

Han Mo said softly: "General Soldier Wan, since you have made an introduction, that is, you have something to say to the general, if you don't say it, you will be uncomfortable, and the general will also be uncomfortable!" ”

Wan Qiqing smiled dryly, and finally lowered his voice and said: "General, if what the last general said is wrong, please ask the general to forgive me!" ”

"It's okay for you to say it!" Han Mo motioned for Wan Qiqing to sit down on the chair next to him.

After Wan Qiqing sat down, he hesitated slightly, and finally said: "General, that time I heard that the general was besieged by the trap set by Sima Haoyue, and the last general always felt very strange in his heart. He glanced at Han Mo with a solemn expression: "General, it stands to reason that you were extremely cautious and cautious in sending troops that time, how could Sima Haoyue know your whereabouts ......!" ”

Han Mo nodded slightly, and said, "General Wan Qian is right, the general has always been curious, where did Sima Haoyue know the general's marching route?" ”

Wan Qianqing hesitated for a moment, and finally said in a low voice: "General, with all due respect, has the general ever thought that someone deliberately leaked the news?" ”

"Does Chief Wan Qian mean that we have spies inside?" Han Mo frowned slightly.

Wan Qiqing said solemnly: "The last general doesn't dare to say this, but ...... But the last general cannot deny that there is such a possibility! ”

Han Mo touched his chin, stared at Wan Qianqing and asked, "General Wan Qian, do you know anything?" ”

Wan Qiqing immediately said: "Don't misunderstand, the last general doesn't know anything, but he has been thinking about this matter for a while, and he feels that it is very strange, so he has these words." The last general has no other intentions, just to remind the general that the general is now related to the fate of our Northwest Army, and the general does not want any accidents to occur in the general. ”

Han Mo sighed: "General Wan Qi, you are highly respected and dedicated to the sake of the Northwest Army, and you will be very pleased. He looked at Wan Qianqing sincerely, and said warmly: "General Wan Qian has been in the Northwest Army for decades, he is a veteran of the Northwest Army, and the future of the Northwest Army is not only a matter of Han Mo, but also a matter of General Wan Qian." ”

Wan Qianqing also sighed lightly: "Because of this, the last general will have such presumptuous words today." ”

"Not presumptuous." Han Mo said: "Don't hide it from the old general, Han Mo has already determined in his heart that among the high-level generals of our Yan army, there must be spies." He leaned forward slightly, and said: "Wan Qian's general soldiers should remember that when this matter was agreed, only a small number of people knew that when Ben General set off, there were still hidden traces, and not many people knew that the team that divided the troops was led by Ben General, let alone that this army was going to intercept Sima Haoyue...... Even our own people don't know about military operations, but Sima Haoyue knows it well, and can even lay a trap for us to get into, if it weren't for the fact that we have internal ghosts, it would be difficult to think of other reasons. ”

Wan Qiqing nodded and said, "What the general said is very true. If the general can have such an idea, the last general will be relieved. ”

"Wan Qian, the general will naturally not just remind the general that we have internal ghosts." Han Mo said calmly: "Does Chief Wan Qian still know some clues?" ”

Wan Qianqing thought for a while, and finally said: "Forgive the last general will not dare to speak out, this matter is not trivial, the last general has no evidence, and he will never dare to say anything." ”

"In this way, General Wan Qian already has a suspicion in his heart?" Han Mo clenched his fists and said.

Wan Qiqing slowly got up and arched his hand: "General, you have been tired for days, and it is inconvenient for the last general to disturb again, you can rest first, and the last general will retire first!" ”

Han Mo said lightly: "Wan Qian's general army, if the ghosts are not clear, the Northwest Army will always be in danger. After a pause, he said slowly: "You say what you think in your heart, and before there is conclusive evidence, Ben will not arbitrarily determine who is the inner ghost ......!" ”

Wan Qiqing sat down again, groaned slightly, and finally said: "General, as long as you are not a fool in this world, no matter what you do, there must be a reason. ”

Han Mo nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

"Such a big thing, someone dares to betray the general, there is no doubt that what this person is planning is not small." Wan Qianqing's expression was serious: "The general thinks that if someone betrays you, what is the biggest reason?" ”

"The first reason that Ben will think of is that among the high-level generals of our Northwest Army, there are Wei people who have buried deep nails for many years, and this time it finally played a role." Han Mo touched his chin and said calmly: "Another reason is that he borrowed a knife to kill people." He looked at Wan Qianqing and said slowly: "Maybe someone hates the general, but he can't get rid of the general, so he took this opportunity to deliberately leak the general's whereabouts to Sima Haoyue, and borrowed Sima Haoyue's hand to kill the general!" ”
