Chapter 344: Missing

The vast ice field, the snow-stained world, a cavalry team of about 10,000 people traveled far away. The snow was not deep www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" pavilion, and only a long series of horseshoe prints of different shades were left where the procession passed.

Not far from the procession, more than a dozen knights stood in the wind and snow, arguing fiercely about something.

"It's too reckless, it's too reckless! Xiaoxue girl left alone without saying a word, if there are three long and two short, how can I explain to the duke?" Xiao Lei looked anxious, "No, I have to follow." Well, the next itinerary will be led by the adjutant general, with the cooperation of thousands of people, so it's decided, carry out the order!"

"General, as your adjutant, I need to remind you that when you leave Tamu City, you leave the territory of the Empire. The entire icefield is full of our enemies, and our soldiers are mainly from the Central Army, who joined the Icefield Legion because they trust the Duke.

You are the commander-in-chief appointed by the Duke, and the soldiers are all looking at you! If you suddenly disappear at this time, it will seriously affect your morale. Once I encounter the enemy, I am afraid that I will be defeated before I fight!" the adjutant general pointed out the problem mercilessly.

"You, you bastard!" Xiao Lei froze, but it was also difficult to argue.

The adjutant general looked at Xiao Lei, who was about to break out, and knew that his general had already made up his mind to find Nalan Xiaoxue, so he had to suggest: "General, since Xiaoxue girl can leave silently, she must have a unique means." If she deliberately avoids you, General, relying on the strength of one person, the vast ice field is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack! ”

Xiao Lei shook his head: "No need, I know where she went, and she's not in the ice field at all now!"

The reason why Little Snow Maiden entered the ice field was just to confuse the eyes of some people in Tamu City. Now that she is alone, she must be doing the opposite. I believe that she will pass through Tamu City and go to the Bazar Desert to meet the Duke. ”

The adjutant general was stunned and fell silent, he could not advise the entire cavalry brigade to return to Tamu City. The people gathered here were all the core officers of the cavalry brigade, and everyone knew that the Ice Plain Legion was not ordered to go north at all, but was forced to leave.

At this time, a rough voice sounded: "Old Xiao, I really don't understand, what do you have to be embarrassed about! Since you can't leave, it's up to me to find Xiaoxue Girl!"

Xiao Lei frowned, he didn't think about the bearded man who was born in the wolf riding camp and had a close relationship with the Duke, but Xiao Lei's eyes inadvertently swept over the slightly chubby young man beside the bearded man, and lamented in his heart that if the bearded man left, he would have to take care of this noble young man.

It's not easy to be a nanny for the royal family, just look at the bearded face and the weed-like beard!

"Hey, Lao Xiao, what are you frowning about! My bearded man is also the leader of the wolf cavalry battalion, and now he is a major general of the Northern Frontier Army, and his riding and archery martial arts are no worse than your personal guard battalion!

Xiao Lei looked at the corners of his bearded eyes that kept tugging, and his heart suddenly sank, the hesitation and disgust at that moment just now were obviously quite disrespectful to His Royal Highness Ye Yuan. The bearded guy is very sharp, this is helping him get rid of suspicion!

Xiao Lei said helplessly: "Well, there is no general in the army, so I can only reluctantly use you as a rascal!

The bearded man pursed his lips and snorted lightly, quite dissatisfied with Xiao Lei's attitude of being cheap and obedient!

Xiao Lei smiled embarrassedly, and hurriedly said, "Okay, it's decided!" He thought about it, then looked at the one-armed man next to him who had not spoken, and said, "I wonder if the Storm Squadron has any objections to this decision?"

The one-armed man said indifferently: "Young Master Nalan has explained, the Storm Squadron is only ordered by the Lord!"

Xiao Lei nodded, and the perception of this indifferent man in his heart went up to a new level, this person was indeed a natural soldier. I have just experienced the pain of losing a child, and it is a time of deep pain, but it is extremely rare to be able to stay sober, temporarily put aside hatred, and obey orders unconditionally!

"General Xiao Lei, can I say a few words?" a slightly shy voice sounded.

Xiao Lei was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look, but it was His Royal Highness Ye Yuan. He immediately arched his hand and said, "If Your Highness has advice, it doesn't hurt to say anything!"

"I don't think the little snow girl left to meet the duke!" Ye Yuan bit his lip and said.

Xiao Lei blinked, quite disappreciative in his heart, but still said respectfully: "Why did Your Highness infer it like this?"

Ye Yuan thought for a while before saying, "I need the general to answer a question first!"

Xiao Lei said respectfully: "Your Highness, please ask!"

Ye Yuan said: "General, if Miss Xiaoxue tells you that she plans to go south to meet the Duke, will you object?"

Xiao Lei immediately shook his head and said, "No, I will only make proper arrangements to help Xiaoxue Girl go south and ensure her safety!" After he finished speaking, his heart suddenly moved, and he vaguely understood something.

Ye Yuan also perked up and said, "I guess the general will also arrange it like this!" So, has the general ever thought that even I, an outsider, will not know what Nalan Xiaoxue girl understands? Since no one will stop her, why should she say goodbye?"

Xiao Lei said solemnly: "Then according to His Highness's opinion, why did Little Snow Girl do this, and where will she go?"

Ye Yuan hesitated: "I can't be sure, but I know that since she has avoided the general and all of us, what she wants to do must be what the general will oppose, and even everyone will oppose......

If I want to find out the purpose of the little snow girl, I can only ask the general again, why did we leave Tamu City in a hurry, and why was the general so sure that the little snow girl would definitely go to the duke?"

Xiao Lei glanced at the people who were also curious, and pondered for a moment before saying, "All of them here are their own people, and it's okay for me to tell everyone." But you must keep in mind that every word I am going to say next is the top secret of the Ice Plain Legion, and if anyone dares to leak it, it will definitely be dealt with by military law!" he bowed to Ye Yuan again and said, "Please Your Highness can also keep the secret for the Ice Legion!"

Ye Yuan bowed and saluted: "The general doesn't have to be like this, Ye Yuan has already said that he just wants to be an ordinary civilian in this life." Lord Duke and the generals of the Ice Plains Legion are kind to me, how can I, Ye Yuan, be an ungrateful person?"

Although Ye Yuan said so, Xiao Lei didn't dare to be rude, he solemnly returned the salute, and then said in a deep voice: "From early this morning to now, many things have happened, and there is only one reason, that is: the Lord of Chiba County plotted to kill the Duke, and this matter was inadvertently detected by the Little Snow Girl, and Chiba intended to kill him! As for the Duke himself, he still doesn't know anything - the Little Snow Girl and the Duke lost contact not long ago!"

Everyone changed color, some looked indignant, some were frightened, and some were silent.

Xiao Lei continued to explain: "The reason why I listed this matter as a top secret is because Xiaoxue Girl speculated: The identity of the Lord of Chiba is extraordinary, she is not only an imperial county lord, but also represents the future His Majesty the Bright Emperor in her words and deeds! We can't be sure who the mastermind behind the scenes is! If the person who really wants to disadvantage the Duke is not Chiba, but-"

Xiao Lei swallowed a mouthful of spit involuntarily before gritting his teeth and said, "But if His Majesty the Bright Emperor is in the future, our situation will be extremely difficult, and the Ice Plain Legion will be in a dilemma - not only will the northern frontier not be able to provide direct support, but even our soldiers will be discouraged after knowing about it, and even our secret base in the southern tribe will be in danger......

Everyone is related to each other -- Xiao Lei is by no means alarmist, for a newly established and isolated military region, without a fixed people, it is difficult to talk about loyalty! For soldiers recruited from the imperial capital, they will never follow the duke who has been abandoned by the empire, because that means being abandoned by their own mother country!

Xiao Lei said in a deep voice: "So, we must keep this secret until the Duke returns!"

Everyone responded in amazement!

Ye Yuan suddenly patted his head and said, "I finally know where Little Snow Girl went!"

Everyone looked at His Royal Highness the prince who had fallen into the ice field in front of them. Forced by everyone's gaze, Ye Yuan's slightly childish face showed a slight look of shame, but the next moment his expression became anxious.

Ye Yuan took two breaths of cold air in a hurry, and then said in a deep voice: "I'm sure that Xiaoxue Girl must have gone to find out Chiba! Maybe she wants to find out Chiba's true purpose, but it is more likely to assassinate Chiba directly! After all, if this matter has nothing to do with Prince Wen Ye Chong at all, it is just Chiba's selfishness, then killing Chiba will remove all threats!"

The bearded man also suddenly said: "In this way, it is not difficult to explain why the little snow girl avoided us.......! The people of the Protoss, even if they kill Chiba, it is a normal thing!, but once we get involved, the Ice Legion will be treasonous!

What a wonderful girl! Lord Chiba must have been unexpected, she really has a chance of success!"

Xiao Lei said bitterly: "But the county lord of Chiba is easy to kill! She has been walking the world on behalf of Prince Wen, and the masters around her are like clouds! This injury is basically a play designed by Chiba herself." If the little snow girl stabs Chiba, there is no doubt that the sheep will fall into the tiger's mouth!"

The one-armed man, who had been silent, suddenly said: "When I left Tamu City, the young master of Nalan told me that Lange would never die in vain, and the frozen people would never allow people to be so humiliated!

I don't think you need to worry, Young Lord Nalan is the heir of the Gu God, a true god clan, even if she can't succeed, she will definitely be able to get out safely!"

Xiao Lei was a little speechless about the one-armed man's confidence, he was not a fanatical believer in the Protoss, and he didn't have such confidence in Nalan Xiaoxue's strength!

The bearded man said impatiently: "It's useless to talk too much! Now that it's confirmed, let's leave now! Don't worry, even if I can't help her deal with Chiba, I will definitely make sure that Xiaoxue Girl is safe and sound!" He bowed his hand to everyone and was about to leave.

"Bearded chief......" Ye Yuan's eyes were red, revealing a look of reluctance!

Looking at this prince, who has been wandering and living in exile everywhere, the bearded man felt sour in his heart for no reason, and bowed down and said, "Your Highness, please be relieved, let's meet in Japan!"

In the heavy snow, the bearded man departed.
