The rain on this day has not gotten heavier, and has been falling like hair, sometimes stopping. By dusk, the drizzle has stopped. The air is filled with fresh smell after the rain, and the smell of soil after the rain is mixed together. Compared to the fragrance of flowers and sandalwood, there is another different smell. It smells into the nose, but it also makes people feel comfortable all over...

Xichun City is filled with the existence of soldiers of the city guards. Chunyuan and Xichun County Government are both guarded by heavy troops of the city guards.

The Imperial Guards were guarding two granaries without any rash actions.

I don’t know who released the news. Many soldiers of the Imperial Guards already knew that their highest commander, General Han Mo and Han, had disappeared, and Miao Wu and more than a dozen Imperial Guards were missing with him. These people suddenly disappeared with General Han, and there was no news again.

In addition, they also knew that the county government, which was originally stationed by the Imperial Guards, had been taken over by the city defenders, and there was a conflict between the two sides at the beginning. Another general of the Imperial Guards, Xiao Mu, was also arrested and imprisoned by the city defenders because they were outnumbered.

Although the psychological quality of the Imperial Guard is the best in Yan State, such setbacks still make every Imperial Guard soldier feel uncomfortable.

Their dignified Yan noble army was going to suffer this humiliation in the small Xichun County. It was like a whip that beat the prisoners in their hearts, and everyone was filled with anger.

However, Xue Shao is now the highest commander in the Imperial Guard. The Imperial Guard, who has always had the strictest military rules, naturally it is impossible for him to disobey Xue Shao's orders, and cause trouble because of his anger.

Xue Shao's orders were firm and clear, and he adhered to the two major granaries. Without his orders, no Imperial Guards could act rashly.

Iron-like orders, the iron-like soldiers must abide by them.

Although such an order was passed, Xue Shao's grief and anger were not weaker than any Imperial Guard. In the past two days, he had always sat quietly in the tent, clenched his fists, and stared at the sword placed on the table in a daze.

It was dusk again, the sky was dark, and the tent was even more dim. Just now, the second batch of disaster relief food was distributed today, Xue Shao sat tiredly in the tent, put his sword on the table in front of him, and then looked at it in a daze again.

His big beard was already messy. In the past, he always took pride in his big beard. He always felt that men should have this bold big beard, so that they would be domineering and masculine.

This rude man took care of his beard very carefully and had to repair it with a special knife almost every day. So in the past, his big beard really made him look majestic and domineering.

However, since Han Mo disappeared the day before yesterday, his big beard has never been repaired, which makes his big beard look very messy, and even grass-gray things are stuck on it, which is extremely sloppy. With his tired face, if it weren't for the Royal Armor supporting the door, he would have looked like a beggar.

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

Han Mo disappeared, Miao Wu disappeared, Xiao Mu was captured, and he was the only one left of the four generals of the Imperial Guard. He understood the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and also understood that the disappearance of the other three was by no means accidental, but could only be that there was a big net behind the scenes. What this big net wanted to capture was the Imperial Guard led by Han Mo.

The more he is, the more he knows his importance now. He must maintain the normal order of the Imperial Guards and must also lead the Imperial Guards to fulfill their duties that they have come here this time.

He knew even more clearly that since the other party could set up such a big trap and make the three imperial generals missing and the arrested, the other party must also think about defeating his last imperial general. Perhaps they have been setting up condoms and waiting for opportunities. Once they fall into the other party's trap, the imperial army will be the real leaderless group.

At that time, the angry imperial guards would easily be angered and exploited by others and do things that should not be done, which would fall into the trap designed by others, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

So Xue Shao reminded himself to hold on, and to be strong and beware of the enemy's means at any time.

His spirit has been in a high state of tension, so how could he be able to sleep and how dare he fall asleep?

He even felt that when he really fell asleep, he might never wake up again.

An unprecedented pressure has been shrouded in Han Mo's heart since Han Mo disappeared. At this time, he truly admired the young man from the bottom of his heart.

No matter what danger you encounter or how steep the situation is, the young man can chat and laugh calmly, and solve it with a calm and gentle breeze. The soldiers come to block the enemy and the water comes to cover the earth.

That requires amazing wisdom to do it.

Xue Shao believes that on the iron-blooded battlefield, he can be fearless and move forward. Even if he sacrifices his life, he is fearless.

However, this kind of political game and this kind of power struggle cannot be played by myself.

Not to mention attack, even defending is extremely difficult in power struggles.

Moreover, in this alternative battlefield, you are definitely not able to win by having the courage to give up your life. On the contrary, sometimes fearless death on this battlefield will not only fail to win, but will become a tool used by the enemy, making your death meaningless and even worse.

There is no doubt that the group of people were looking forward to their death at this time, but although they had the courage to sacrifice at this time, they could not sacrifice. This is the helplessness of the struggle for power and conspiracy.

In addition to courage, this kind of struggle requires careful wisdom, wisdom to gain insight into the initiative, and decisive decision-making!

...

At noon, Xue Shao even received a sensational news that the dignified Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Su Keyong, who came to Yichun to thoroughly investigate the corruption and taxation case, committed suicide last night.

Suicide for fear of guilt is the explanation that came out!

Xue Shao felt that things could never be as simple as they were spread, and there must be an ulterior motive of the secrets.

When Han Mo was there, he formed a joint force with Su Keyong, which was something that many people knew. As a general around Han Mo, Xue Shao naturally understood the key points.

After Han Mo disappeared, Xue Shao not only secretly sent people to search everywhere and waited for Han Mo to return, but also hoped that Su Keyong could really withstand the attack of the He clan, at least before Han Mo came back, there would be no greater changes.

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

In his heart, the young man was smart and smart, and had great martial arts skills. He would not be easily hurt if he did things before he could do it. Perhaps he encountered setbacks for a while, but he would come back soon.

However, Su Keyong's death immediately put Xue Shao in an unprecedented pressure.

In addition to losing a major ally, on the other hand, it 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, and he immediately thought of Eunuch Ling. At this time, the only one who could play a role was Eunuch Ling.

He made a quick decision and went to Chunyuan to ask to see Ling Lei.

But this time, Chunyuan did not give the Imperial Guard general a trace of face. The door was closed and Xue Shao asked someone to call him, but no one responded, and he was rejected by Xue Shao.

The He clan was already arrogant and arrogant. Or, their original intention was to anger Xue Shao and cause trouble for Xue Shao because of his anger. In that way, they would have an excuse and reason to deal with Xue Shao.

Xue Shao was indeed very angry, but the man was not overwhelmed by anger at such a critical moment. He suppressed his anger and led his subordinates to leave Chunyuan.

His approach may have disappointed the He tribe.

...

The tent became even darker, and Xue Shao finally sighed and shook his head: "Brother Han, where have you been? If you don't come back, old brother... I can't hold on anymore!"

After a long period of high mental tension and long-term guard against traps set by the enemy, this man who has always been rough and generous is really unable to hold on.

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

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

"Can you find the news about the adults?" Xue Shao asked directly without raising his head.

The only one who dares to disturb him at this time is the only soldiers who come to report Han Mo's whereabouts, because he has already ordered that as long as there is news about Han Mo, he will report to him as soon as possible.

However, no one answered this time.

He heard a very slight sound of footsteps coming towards him.

As a soldier's vigilance made Xue Shao immediately alert. He remained silent, his left arm still supported his head, but his right hand slowly moved. The footsteps were getting closer. Xue Shao suddenly raised his right hand and grabbed the hilt of the sword on the table with great accuracy. He pulled it out at an extremely fast speed. The blade forward. His man had already stood up, his beard was raised, and his eyes stared at the front, full of murderous aura.

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

He stared at the person who came, and his hands suddenly trembled.

"Brother Xue!" The person who came was wearing casual clothes, holding an oil lamp in his hand, 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 moment, his eyes turned red. He slowly put away his knife, took two steps forward, hugged the visitor suddenly, patted his back hard, "Where have you... gone? You... are finally back!"

The person who came smiled and said calmly: "I won't come back, how can I take you... to kill the enemy!"

Of course this person is Han Mo!
