Yang Xiaoran looked at everyone and wanted to hear what everyone thought.

Xuntian, who was still recovering from his injuries, laughed: "Xia Yashuang, are you angry? Because you were attacked by someone unexpectedly and you were unable to participate in the second half of the Lang Fang battle?"

Xia Yashuang lowered her head and asked Xuntian: "Are you feeling happy?"

"To be honest, it's really not pleasant. Anyway, I won't fight with you. Please don't make any mistakes." Xuntian thought that he had to rush back to Cangzhou as soon as possible to return his orders to Ding Meng, so he did not plan to participate in the pursuit of the deserters.

Yang Xiaoran curled his lips and said: "Hey, I'm asking for your opinion, but are you just happy for yourself? You have to give me enough reasons, otherwise how can I have the nerve to borrow so many horses from Li Menghua?"

"Didn't I already tell you the reason? In order to prevent Lang Fangcheng's situation from reaching the imperial capital." Xia Yashuang added.

"But it will be a matter of time before the information here reaches the imperial capital." Yerou felt that there was no need to pursue the 5,000 enemy soldiers who had already fled.

"Why are you so confused? These 5,000 enemy soldiers will not be eaten for nothing." Xia Yashuang was a little anxious.

Po Kong, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said: "Xia Yashuang, your soldiers have fought bloody battles for so long, and their physical strength has long been exhausted. What will happen even if I give you a thousand horses? They can no longer display their strength normally.

, why are you in such a hurry? Moreover, the battle in Langfang City has just ended, the city is in chaos, and everyone is very busy."

There is indeed some truth to Po Kong's words. The soldiers have worked hard until now and finally ended the war. They are eager to have a good rest.

"But I'm really unwilling to just let those 5,000 soldiers escape!" Xia Yashuang said unhappily.

"I agree with Xia Yashuang!" Ye Wuxue suddenly said.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, surprised why Ye Wuxue agreed with Xia Yashuang.

"What's the reason?" Po Kong asked.

"I participated in the whole battle of the South Gate. I noticed a man in the sky. This man had long white hair. I saw him appear during the battle and at the end of the war, and he was the one who suggested to the young deputy

The regiment commander abandoned the city and headed north."

"So? What do you want to say?" Po Kong continued to ask.

"That person is probably the enemy's strategist. It would be best to at least kill him."

"If this person is a very capable strategist, then we will not be able to capture Langfang City. This is enough to show that the strategist is not very good, so there is no need to care."

"Of course the reason is not only the military advisor, but also the fact that the deputy commander who led the more than 5,000 soldiers to escape is the son of the chief administrative officer of the imperial capital."

"The son of the Chief Administrative Officer?" Po Kong had some ideas. After all, the Chief Administrative Officer was considered a high official. He was in charge of all political affairs in the imperial capital.

Xia Yashuang immediately said: "Then what are you waiting for? Without further ado, I will go catch the son of the manager."

Po Kong also echoed: "Okay, I will send more people to go with you, and Yang Xiaoran will also accompany you."

"No, you don't need the general's help for such a thing. Just give me a thousand soldiers."

"Are you sure you can do it?"

"Okay, don't worry."

Po Kong also knew Xia Yashuang well. He knew that Xia Yashuang was confident and did not want other generals to help, so he stopped blocking him: "Okay, then you and Yang Xiaoran go and ask the commander of the cavalry regiment to lend him a hand."

You have a thousand cavalry, they know the nature of horses and are fast."

"Would the captain be willing to borrow it?" Xia Yashuang asked Yang Xiaoran.

"Yes, he still listens to my words." Yang Xiaoran said with a smile.

Finally, Xia Yashuang successfully borrowed a thousand cavalry and headed north.

Xia Yashuang did not bring his own soldiers, but he brought several of his trusted generals, as well as his confidant general Qin Huibing.

In the underground shopping mall, Ye Rou always felt a little strange. She asked Po Kong: "Why don't you think Xia Yashuang brings Yang Xiaoran with her? It would be much safer to bring Yang Xiaoran with her."

"Maybe he is more confident, or maybe he feels unhappy because he did not participate in the second half of Lang Fang's battle, so he wants to take this opportunity to perform well," Po Kong replied.

"It always feels a little weird." Yerou still couldn't figure it out.

Xuntian, who was nearby, heard Ye Rou's words and came over: "It must be a competitive spirit. I can understand Xia Yashuang. If I didn't want to return to Cangzhou City to resume my life, I would also chase the deserters."

Seeing that both Xuntian and Pokong had such relaxed thoughts, Yerou didn't want to cause them more trouble, so she didn't say anything more.

In fact, Yerou also hopes to have a relaxed mind, but it is difficult for her to do so. Because deep down in her heart, Yerou is wary of Xia Yashuang. She feels that Xia Yashuang is not as simple as everyone thinks.

Recalling that before, Yerou was persuaded by Xia Yashuang to stay in the underground shopping mall. At that time, Xia Yashuang hinted at Yerou with a wink.

Afterwards, Xuntian temporarily passed out due to his serious injuries. At this time, Xia Yashuang and Yerou had a whisper.

"Sister Yerou, did you see a middle-aged uncle with white hair when you were fighting up there before?"

"Why does the middle-aged uncle have gray hair?" Yerou asked.

"Dye your hair. Anyway, you look quite distinctive."

"I didn't see it. It's very confusing up there. How can I have time to pay attention to so much."

"Okay, that's okay."

"Wait, I have something to do." Yerou said.

"What's wrong?"

"Why did you blink at me just now? It seemed like you were giving me a hint."

"Shh! Keep your voice down." Xia Yashuang looked around and found that the elite soldiers beside him were several of his close confidants. Then he looked at Xuntian sleeping, and after making sure that no outsiders were eavesdropping, he spoke softly.

Responding to Yerou: "If you didn't blink, you might not stay."

"What's the purpose of that?"

"Just think about it, although Zhuge Jun's death was an accident, it had something to do with Po Kong. We don't know how Wangcheng will handle this matter. Now we must absolutely ensure that the seriously injured Xun Tian is safe and sound."

"I know this is Po Kong's negligence, but Po Kong will never make such a mistake again."

"That's not the point. The point is, we must show regret, repent, and draw attention."

"What do you mean? Repent?" Yerou was a little confused.

"Actually, we did it deliberately to show Xun Tian, ​​letting Xun Tian know that we value him. Even if the possibility of another sneak attack here is as low as infinitely close to 0, we will stay here on purpose. In name, Xun Tian's safety is our priority.

.Then Xuntian will definitely speak good words for us when the time comes."

"So, it's just to show off to Xun Tian? In fact, there's no point in me staying here." Ye Rou felt that she was being used by Xia Yashuang, and was a little unhappy.

"This action is of great significance, and it is all for the overall situation. Do you think Jiang Feng and Su Kouye's group are good people? Zhuge Jun is dead, and such an important military advisor is dead. If they want to attack us, there are a lot of reasons. To put it harshly,

, we are now on the knife board, at our mercy."

"Is it that serious?" Yerou hadn't thought too much before, but after hearing what Xia Yashuang said, it did make sense.

"What we have to do is admit that we were wrong, draw attention to it, and show remedial measures. In short, we must not shirk responsibility. Only by taking the initiative to shoulder the responsibility, Jiang Feng and his group will not attack us."

"As you said...it's so complicated." Yerou really didn't expect Xia Yashuang's city to be so deep.

"Think about it for yourself. In short, don't think of Jiang Feng, Su Kouye and others as good people. Then you will understand what I mean."

Back in time, Yerou subconsciously felt that Xia Yashuang must have some ulterior motives, but she also felt that Xia Yashuang would not do anything that would endanger Po Kong or the interests of the team, so she didn't think about it so much for the time being.

Already.

At this moment, a crisp voice sounded: "Sister Yerou."

"Yang Xiaoran." Ye Rou smiled.

"Do you know who the woman next to Xia Yashuang who looks a little cold is?"

"The one next to Xia Yashuang?"

"Well, her weapon is a strange-shaped metal scepter."

"That person you are talking about, her name seems to be Qin Xiabing, she is Xia Yashuang's deputy general."

"Oh, is she strong?" Yang Xiaoran continued to ask.

"I haven't seen her show off her skills very often, but I saw her using a very strange power. Several people at the company commander level suddenly grew plants on their bodies and died."

"Plants suddenly grow. Isn't that a wood-type superpower?"

"I don't know either. But Yang Xiaoran, why do you pay so much attention to her?"

"It doesn't matter. It was the weapon in her hand that aroused my curiosity. The scepter is inlaid with a colorful gem. I think that gem is very unusual, but there is no record of colorful gems in the Doomsday Guide."

"Isn't it just a gem? It's not unusual for anything to appear now. Don't think about it so much. If we meet again next time, we can ask her in person."

"Well, that's fine. Let's not talk about it for now. I'll go find Po Kong first and discuss some things with him."

"Yeah, let's go." Yerou smiled.

Not long after Yang Xiaoran walked away, Yerou was suddenly stunned. Her eyes widened, and a major doubt suddenly came to her mind.

Ye Rou immediately ran to Po Kong and interrupted the chat between Yang Xiaoran and Po Kong.

"Pokong, do you have any impression of Xia Yashuang's female lieutenant Qin Huibing?"

"Well, I must have an impression. She used a strange power to kill those deputy battalion commanders and platoon commanders. Plants grew all over her body. I was shocked at the time." Po Kong replied.

road.

"That's right, but I didn't see her when the four regiments of troops stormed Langfang City. Did you see her in the second half of the battlefield?"

Po Kong thought deeply for a few seconds and replied: "It seems not, I did not see her later."

"But after the war, she appeared. Then Xia Yashuang insisted on chasing the pursuers. Don't you think it's a little strange?"

"strangeness?"
