Chapter eight hundred and seventeen.

Perhaps Han Xiaomo was already the last bit of ties that supported him Mao Xingjian. If it weren't for her, perhaps he, the prince, had already died in the Snake City and was integrated with those millions of unjust souls. If she had any more, Mao Xingjian really didn't know if he still had the courage to survive.

Just like a madman, he rushed out of the tent anxiously. Fortunately, not far from the tent, just before he went crazy, Han Xiaomo's trembling body, which was as bright as a quail, suddenly came into his eyes.

At that moment, perhaps everything in the world was no longer important, and even the corners of his eyes were a little wet and full of surprise. Mao Xingjian staggered and ran over quickly. While he was scolding him with great anger, he suddenly untied his fur cloak that covered him and wrapped the cold body of this girl in from behind.

"You are crazy! Do you know you almost died! You are not lying in the tent, you run around..."

But before he could finish his roar, Han Xiaomo suddenly turned his head and looked at him with such a dull and unfamiliar eyes, as if he had no soul. For a moment, just as he felt despair, fortunately, there was another familiar, silly smile on her face, and responded excitedly.

"Big nephew, you are back!"

My heart relaxed, but then I tightened my hands and shook my hands in front of her eyes. Looking at her unresponsive eyes, Mao Xingjian swallowed them hard, and then he did not show his sobs. He pulled his cold hands, and Mao Xingjian said hurriedly again.

"Stop messing around. Your high fever has just subsided. You can't catch a cold anymore. Hurry up and go back to the tent with me!"

"Don't worry, once when I was a child, he threw it into the snow and frozen for a night because he stole the steamed buns from Mongolian Naiyan. My mother said that even if her head was so hot, she could boil eggs, but she didn't burn me to death. What's this? You are not eating yet another day, right? If you don't eat anything, you will fall ill first!"

Mao Xingjian then realized that there was a clay pot hanging on the small fire, and the familiar fragrance came out. Seeing Han Xiaomo's little hands groping around him again, his trembling became even more intense. He really couldn't imagine how this woman was churn out the ingredients while blind, lit the fire in the snow, and cooked a midnight snack for him.

And suddenly, he suddenly realized how difficult it was to come every night, the warm porridge he had become accustomed to and didn't care about.

After wiping his eyes twice, Mao Xingjian hurriedly grabbed her cold little hand, but sat down side by side with her, holding her with one hand, and using her hand to serve hot porridge in the pot. Regardless of whether it is hot or not, she listened, raised her head and poured it into her stomach.

A hint of joy appeared on his little face, but immediately, Han Xiaomo blamed him a little anxiously: "Slow down! Hot! Why are you doing so anxious? Are you stupid?"

After the warm porridge was eaten, it dispelled the chill that was lingering in her body. Holding her cold little hand, Mao Xingjian's voice was so gentle that he couldn't believe it. He also asked reproachfully.

"Then are you stupid? Why are you blocking me? You can't see anything now! Let's see how you get married!"

"I'm not stupid! I promised Sister Changping that there is another gentle and sweet elder sister who wants to take care of you. I, Han Xiaomo, must do it! Otherwise, am I still me?"

She shook her little fist angrily, but after a moment, she muttered weakly again: "If you can't see it, you can't see it. I, at the very least, I won't get married, what's so great about it!"

In the dark, sometimes someone must be the light of another person. This girl rarely popped up a philosophical word, but Mao Xingjian was stunned again and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"I..., still me?"

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Did I say something wrong?"

Suddenly, he became silent and obviously unable to adapt. Han Xiaomo asked in a panic. Who knew that the next moment, a heavy jar handle was stuffed heavily into her little hand by Mao Xingjian. Then he pulled her other hand, and Mao Xingjian pulled her away, and could not see anything. The girl screamed even more panic: "Hey! Where are you going!"

"Go back to the tent to eat, you are the stupid girl who is blowing the northwest wind in the cold weather and drinking porridge in the wind."

The same familiar teasing sound came from the front, and Han Xiaomo suddenly pouted his little mouth angrily again.

"How do you talk to your aunt!"

Holding her hand and sitting back to the bed, Mao Xingjian himself did not notice it. A radiant glory appeared again on his face, which was a few years older. The decadent prince seemed to have left.

.........

Early in the morning, there was an urgent sound of drums to raise the tent. Once again, all the generals of the Expeditionary Force were on the list. The plan for the attack was set last night, and the plan was to be implemented today. The atmosphere of the war spread throughout the entire army, and everyone was nervous because the war would be stolen.

But before Adrena could finish her majestic speech, the command center's door was suddenly pushed open. With the expression of the little sentry crying, Mao Xingjian suddenly broke in, and suddenly, and all the generals looked over again.

"Hey, our merciful prince is here, and we are going to bring that barbarian again this time?"

Liu Zongmin, who was full of beard, started to laugh sarcastically. Who knew that Mao Xingjian refused to hesitate and said: "You, my father's defeated general, who has been defeated repeatedly, how can you face the lonely person? "

"Little bastard, you..."

Halfway through the words, a cold gaze was already cast on his back. He looked back at Adrena's murderous eyes and shivered with excitement. The guy shrank his head and timidly, muttering in his mouth.

"I don't know what the big reason is to be sour!"

But today, Adrena's eyes were not as contemptuous as yesterday. She looked at Mao Xingjian's clean coat and his hair neatly tied up, and she asked a little solemnly: "Prince! Why did she break into this commander's central army?"

"In the name of Governor Rocky, I am against your plan of offense!"

"Yes! According to the prince's actions, we should go and find those barbarians to surrender!"

Liu Zongmin mocked him again without restraint, but this time, no one followed him to make a fuss. Some people were born with that aura, and Mao Xingjian's aura was as heavy as the mountains. Looking at his sharp eyes and solemn expression, for some reason, even Yuan Zongdi, Liu Tichun and other generals who surrendered to the rebel army would not be able to laugh out loud.

After asking for trouble, Liu Zongmin retracted his head in disappointment.

Adrena kept staring at him, and with the same solemn expression, she asked again.

"reason?"

"I have contacted the six southern tribes, that is, the barbarians who slaughtered my snake city. Before heading north, they had attacked the Aztec Empire occupied by Spain for two consecutive years, destroying nearly half of the strongholds of the Gulf of Mexico and nearly half of the Spaniards. In other words, the remaining half of the undestroyed were large fortresses that they could not chew on."

"Left Guard, even if my Ming army is sharp, how much do you plan to spend to compete for the poor food of the Spaniards in these fortresses? What if they were more cruel, strengthened the walls and cleared the fields, and burned the food?"

Adrena's face became a little more serious, but at this time, Liu Zongmin couldn't help but appear, and the crow screamed in an ugly voice: "After all, you nerd prince still want everyone to surrender to the barbarian?"

"General Liu, you have been a thief for your whole life. You don't even have the courage to regain food. You are not even worthy of the thief!"

I never expected that yesterday, a young man like a rat crossing the street would actually point at his nose and push his head to the ox. Liu Zongmin was so angry that he jumped up and roared with gritted teeth: "Little bastard, you..."

A cold gun directly hit his head, turned around in horror, and Adrena had a beautiful face, but at this moment, she was as ferocious as a female ghost, and she squeezed out her words from her teeth.

"If you dare to insult Your Majesty again, I will break you!"

If he refused to admit defeat, Liu Zongmin would not have appeared here. Looking at Adrena's gloomy eyes, this strong man, who was over 1.9 meters tall, was scared back and muttered angrily.

"Just talking about it, as for it?"

He let out his breath and stuffed the large-diameter revolver back onto his belt. Adrena's eyes fell on Mao Xingjian solemnly for the third time. She questioned extremely seriously.

"The entire Snake River barbarians have betrayed the Ming Dynasty. Now that there are hostility everywhere, how can you ensure that the risk of recapturing the Snake River plain will not be smaller than that of directly raiding Mexico? How can you ensure that these barbarians will not be able to strengthen their walls and clear their fields and burn all their food?"

"I can't guarantee it! But at least, for the Mexican Spanish Barbarians far south, I know better about these tribes on the Snake River. I know that compared to the Spanish Barbarians, these land barbarians are more barren and cherish food more. And I also know their habits and weaknesses. Compared to directly raiding Mexico City, I still think it is safer to recapture the Snake River Plain, seize food, and ensure that logistics will be followed by one step further!"

With his eyes shining brightly, Mao Xingjian stared at Adrena's face, and then fell on the faces of the chiefs of staff. Looking at his powerful self-confidence, for a moment, the staff officers were stunned for a few seconds before they lowered their heads and discussed quickly again. Holding their chin, Adrena also considered two solutions. But just as Mao Xingjian was looking forward to it, for a long time, Adrena shook her head solemnly again.

"In view of your recent failure at the Snake River, the Joint Staff still believes that the raid of the Spaniards in Mexico is a little less risky."

An unprecedented disappointment appeared on her face, but this time, Mao Xingjian was still not decadent. She just clasped her fists thoughtfully. However, looking at his expression, Adrena suddenly searched her handsome desk twice. Then, gold was made of gold, and a short staff carved with a lifelike three-legged golden crow was thrown out by her.

"This is for you!"

Mao Xingjian asked in surprise.

"What's this?"

"The scepter of the Imperial Guard's Ninth Firebird Corps!"

Speaking of this, Adrena paused again, then she looked a little embarrassed and hummed in a low voice.

"Also called the Crown Prince Corps, it's..., it was what Your Majesty wanted to hand it over to you in the morning!"
