After Ba Niu captured the town of Fallen Leaves, he did not drive all his men into the city. Only 25,000 men from his own headquarters were stationed in the city, and the rest were stationed outside the city. The first person to know the news of the explosion was Chang Lin, who succeeded Tang Yulin and is now the general of the First Army. Ba Niu went to Qujia Manor to marry without permission, and only he knew about it. He has been paying attention to the news there.

As soon as the explosion sounded, he gathered all the generals and ordered the battalions to defend them tightly, and no one should leave his post without a military order. At the same time, the person who came back also reported to him the location of the explosion. What worried him the most was that all the people saw Ba Niu enter the cave house, but no one saw him come out. Most of the people in charge of guarding were also killed in the explosion, and even Qu Qianqiu's family was not spared.

He was ready for the death of Ba Niu, and he knew that since the enemy had already done this step, after he succeeded, there must be a follow-up move. So he closely observed those who had been under Haitian's tenure and were now submissive to them, or who were living in seclusion at home.

Surprisingly, none of them moved, and many did not even leave their homes for half a step. But what he didn't expect was that Yu Haitian didn't need these people to leave the house at all, they would do things at home.

The first thing Yu Haitian did after taking over Fallen Leaf Town was to dig tunnels, and he personally designed a drawing to dig the entire underground of Fallen Leaf Town into an intricate network, and prepared a large number of military supplies in it. Now, his troops are all in ambush, and they can creep out of any exit and launch a surprise attack on their enemies.

The main reason why Yu Haitian did not attack immediately was that he had not yet received the last news from Ba Niu. Whether he is alive or dead, he must know so that he can make plans for the next step.

"No one in the Qu family manor has ever come out", the person in charge of monitoring reported to him very certainly. But he was still relieved, so he decided to go and see it for himself. This is also the biggest flaw of people with a cautious personality, their self-confidence must always be based on facts.

All he could see was a ruin, unburned rafters still crackling, and smoke filling the sky. The smell of cooked dead bodies is disgusting. Yu Haitian only glanced at it, and then left in a hurry, he was really afraid that he would vomit.

"What actions are there in the direction of the barracks"? He calmed down for a moment before he asked in a trembling tone.

"There was no action", replied the person in charge of surveillance, "and they did the same as usual, neither in a chaotic situation nor in a targeted investigation into the incident, as if it had not happened, what to do, or what to do".

Yu Haitian couldn't help frowning, he couldn't understand, if something went wrong with the commander of an army, how could they be indifferent! But he quickly came to the conclusion that Ba Niu was not dead. To confirm this speculation, he decided to take a risk.

Chang Lin presided over everything in the camp, just like when Ba Niu was there, but behind the scenes, he still sent his closest people to look for some evidence, some evidence that Ba Niu was alive or dead. What he is most worried about now is not the enemy's attack, but internal stability.

"My lord, Yu Jiahui asks to see you."

Just when he was struggling to find a breakthrough, the person he wanted to see finally came. This Yu Jiahui is not an ordinary person, he is an extremely important military advisor under Yu Haitian, and many of Yu Haitian's strategies are from his handiwork, including the construction of the underground network. Of course, not many people know about these things, and people's perception of him is his official title. Yu Haitian is the Da Yin of Fallen Leaf Town, he is the staff of Da Yin's side, and he is the most trusted one.

He was the first to advocate for peace after Ba Niu's army occupied the town of Fallen Leaves. Therefore, Ba Niu raised him to an extremely high position, that is, Yu Haitian's original position, the Fu Yin of Fallen Leaf Town, and Ba Niu's plan, the affairs of Mingsha Mountain were to be completely handed over to him to deal with. Unexpectedly, in this incident, the first person to appear was him.

Chang Lin already knew very well in his heart that Yu Jiahui was the person who needed to be guarded against the most. However, he still had to meet him.

"Let him in." Chang Lin knows that not seeing is not the same as being able to solve the problem, and seeing may have a solution to the problem.

After Yu Jiahui entered the account, the first thing he saw was Chang Lin, and he already understood everything in his heart. However, he still had to ask tentatively: "Has the general heard of the explosion in the north of the city?"

"I already knew last night", Chang Lin's expression was still very calm, and he couldn't tell that something had happened at all. However, Yu Jiahui is not such an easy person to deal with. He smiled, looked at Chang Lin, and said gloomily: "I heard that the place where the explosion occurred was the Qu family manor, and our Grand Governor, Lord Taiwei, seems to be there."

"Yes, the place where the explosion occurred is the Qu family manor, and Lord Taiwei is indeed inside." Chang Lin's straightforward answer caught Yu Jiahui a little off guard, he always thought that Chang Lin would never dare to admit the fact that Ba Niu had been killed.

Chang Lin looked at his sluggish face and couldn't help laughing, he looked at Yu Jiahui and said slowly: "Lord Taiwei, he has probably encountered an accident, but this kind of accident, now you have also encountered it."

"...... you"? Yu Jiahui suddenly understood the meaning of his words. Chang Lin didn't hide him, not that he didn't want to, but that he didn't need to. He could tell him everything, even more secrets, because he didn't have any fear that he would leak out—he wouldn't let him go.

"Tell me, who planned the whole project, who carried it out, and what role did you play in it?" Chang Lin still looked at him with a smile. At this time, Yu Jiahui also relaxed, and he suddenly laughed, as if he was saying to Chang Lin, and as if he was talking to himself: "I have always told Lord Fu Yin that if you plan something, you must resolutely carry it out." But he was always too cautious, and he always wanted an affirmative answer, and now he got the answer, but one of his arms was broken." As he spoke, he laughed again.

Chang Lin looked at him, without saying a word, he was waiting for him to continue, he knew that he would definitely continue, for a person who knew that he was going to die, it was far happier to tell the secrets in his heart than to take them to the grave.

"Do you think that if you keep me and kill me, you will be safe? You're wrong"! He continued: "To tell you the truth, under your feet, there are dense tunnels everywhere, and Lord Fu Yin is lying in ambush under the tunnels, and they can take your lives at any time if they want. Li Jiuyuan will be blown up, you will also be blown up, and all the enemies who enter Fallen Leaf Town will be blown up!" Speaking of this, he laughed out loud again: "Do you think that you can survive now that you know the news?" You're wrong again. Before I came, all the explosives had been planted, and after two hours, whether I could get out of here or not, the explosives would ignite. Of course, if you do something now, it will ignite now".

"So we are all going to die"?

"Surely death"!

Chang Lin stared at him deadly, and suddenly laughed again: "There is no doubt that we will die, I'm afraid there are only two of us, before you set foot in the big tent, I have ordered all the troops to withdraw from the city."

"No way"! He felt that Chang Lin didn't seem to be lying, which made his heart tremble: "If you take action, Lord Fu Yin will definitely ignite the explosives immediately, and will never let them leave here safely"!

"If it is a large-scale military operation, it will naturally attract his attention, but the normal change of guard and army dispatch is another matter. Moreover, you are far more important to him than you know about yourself. Even if he doubts my actions, he will not act rashly until you have sent him a signal."

He knew that what he said was right, Yu Haitian was indeed a genius, but he was born as a literati, he was still a little weak and hesitant, and he would have unnecessary hesitation in many big things, and it was this hesitation that finally missed this best opportunity.
