Chapter 26 Yao Xiu's disappearance

Not long after 3,000 Huaiyi reinforcements arrived at the village in front of Bamian Slope, 2,000 reinforcements from Yanzhou, led by Anding Fang and Li Wancheng, also arrived near Bamian Slope under the guidance of Jiang Dongfang and Su Wanyue. In this way, the original army gathered in front of the eight slopes reached 8,000, completely overwhelm the orcs from the momentum of the camp.

What made Zhang Zhentian happiest was that Jiang Dongfang returned to his side, so that he had more ideas in commanding the battle. After most of the day's arrangement, the two support forces of Huaiyi and Yanzhou set up camp in the rear of Bamianpo village respectively. In the evening, the generals of the three former People's Battalion will naturally gather together. First, they have to inform each other of their respective situations, and the other is to study the battle plan. But at this time, Zhang Zhentian made an amazing discovery. His little tail, Yao Xiu, is gone.

"Who have seen Yao Xiu during the day?" Zhang Zhentian glanced at the empty seat beside him, and he turned his eyes to the people in the room in surprise. The generals of Yanyun looked at each other and then shook their heads. Naturally, the generals of Huaiyi did not know who Zhang Zhentian was looking for. They could only sit there in a daze. Finally, Xue Jin said first, "Mr. Zhang, don't worry! This Miss Yao... has always been naughty and likes hunting. She must have gone hunting in the nearby mountains.

"Oh! It's also possible." Zhang Zhentian listened to Xue Jin's words and nodded. That's right! In the morning, Yao Xiu told him about hunting. Maybe she went to the mountains alone. But now it's getting late and she hasn't come back yet, which always makes him feel a little relieved. Thinking of this, Zhang Zhentian was still a little uneasy and said, "General Xue, but it's getting late now. Will something happen to her?"

"That's it! I'll take someone to find her first." Xue Jin stood up and said, "Anyway, it's only one way up the mountain from the village. I'll take 50 soldiers to the mountain to find her."

"Good! Be safe on the road. Zhang Zhentian told him again. After Xue Jin left, he and the generals in the room informed each other about their situation and the situation of the orcs, and then simply planned the battle plan. By this time, the night was already deep. He also said goodbye to the generals of all sides and then went to rest separately.

The next morning, Xue Jin took the people who went into the mountain to find Yao Xiu back to the village from the mountain. After Zhang Zhentian saw Xue Jin, the first sentence asked, "Has Yao Xiu found it?"

Xue Jin shook his head and said, "Mr. Zhang, we have looked for it in the back mountain of the village last night. We didn't find any trace of anyone entering the forest. Then, we looked for several nearby hills, but found no trace of Miss Yao. Therefore, I was afraid that she had returned to the camp, so I brought someone back first.

"How could this happen?" After listening to this, Zhang Zhentian frowned. Normally, after experiencing the transformation, he should not be so worried about Yao Xiu's disappearance. Does he really have to fall in love with this young woman? Zhang Zhentian stood there for a while, and then asked Xue Jin, "General Xue, is there any horse near here that can eat tigers and leopards?"

"Oh! What about it? That's just a legend." Xue Jin smiled after hearing this, "It is said that there is such a thing in the Bamyeonpo area, but no one has seen it."

"Do you know where this thing is found in the legend?" Zhang Zhentian listened to Xue Jin's words and hurriedly asked.

"This!" Xue Jin lowered his head and thought for a while, and then replied uncertainly, "It should be in the mountain behind the orc camp, right?" Mr. Zhang, did Miss Yao go to find that horse?

"Yes!" Zhang Zhentian nodded, "Yesterday morning, she asked me to go to find the horse. I don't believe it, so I didn't go. At night, I can't find her. I doubt if she has entered the mountain.

"It's hard to say." Xue Jin shook his head after hearing this. Xue Jin used to be a general of Yao Xiu's father and brother, and he also knew Yao Xiu's temper very well. He knew that although Yao Xiu was a girl, she had been very bold since she was a child. If Yao Xiu really had a temper, she would run to the mountain behind the orc camp to look for the one-horned horse, which was actually a horse or a unicorn, which was also very possible.

When Zhang Zhentian saw that Xue Jin was not sure of Yao Xiu's where to go, his worries about Yao Xiu's safety became stronger and stronger. Finally, he said to Xue Jin, "General Xue, I don't understand the matter of arranging military affairs in plain! You can help me with the affairs in this barracks for a few days! I want to go to Bamian slope today.

"This..." Xue Jin listened to Zhang Zhentian's words, and he hesitated a little, "Mr. Zhang, let's go to the eight slopes from here, and we have to be careful to bypass the orc camp. The road is very dangerous. I think I'd better go!"

"No need!" Zhang Zhentian shook his head and said, "I'd better go. If you go, according to Yao Xiu's temper, you may not be able to bring her back. Xue Jin listened to Zhang Zhentian's words, so he had to nod his head silently. Not bad! Yao Xiugui is the princess of Yanyun. If Xue Jin finds Yao Xiu and Yao Xiu doesn't want to go down the mountain, Xue Jin really has nothing to do with her.

Xue Jin stood there for a little consideration, and then said, "Mr. Zhang, I'm going to call Tao Zhu!" He also likes these rare beasts, maybe he can do it!" After saying that, Xue Jin ran to the camp in front of the village. Zhang Zhentian heard this, and he also went behind Xue Jin.

At about noon, Zhang Zhentian found Jiang Dongfang, Andingfang, Li Wancheng and others together. He explained to several people that he would leave the camp for a few days, and Xue Jin was in charge of the affairs in the camp. Then, he took Tao Zhu, and the two left the original camp and went to Bamian slope together.

Although this eight-sided slope is located behind the orc camp, it is a large mountain. Therefore, there are other fork in the mountain between the village past the hill guarded by the original man and the orc camp. Tao Zhu was indeed as Xue Jin said. He was indeed very interested in rare beasts. He heard that Yao Xiu might go to the mountain to find Ma Jiao, and Zhang Zhentian hoped that he could accompany him to find Yao Xiu, and he immediately agreed.

On the way to the mountain, it is also thanks to Tao Zhu. He was very familiar with the roads around the eight-sided slope. Soon, Zhang Zhentian bypassed the orc camp under his leadership. Enter the mountain on eight slopes.

After Zhang Zhentian and Tao Zhu left, Xue Jin did not dare to neglect, and he carefully checked the defense around the hill. It was not until he thought it was foolproof that he left the hill and returned to the village.

"General Xue!" As soon as Xue Jin entered the village, he built together and greeted him. When Xue Jin saw it, he quickly saluted Gongzhu, "It's General Gong. I don't know what you want to do with me?"

"Hehe! Brother Xue is polite." Building the same etiquette for subordinates to superiors, he quickly took Xue Jin's arm and said, "Brother Xue, now you are the commander of the camp. I should salute you!"

"Haha! Anyway, the communist general is also a general of Huaiyi, and I should be polite to you. Xue Jin replied with a smile.

"In this case, I have something to say." After listening to Xue Jin's words, he felt that he was very useful. Indeed, according to the military rank, he is also a serious general of Huaiyi, and although Xue Jin acts as the general of the right battalion of the imperial guard, he is just a lieutenant. And the Huaiyi army that came to support was originally not controlled by the Yanyun Kingdom, so if you listen to the arrangement of the Yanyun Kingdom, it is not just a love affair.

"General, please speak!" Xue Jin answered immediately.

"Good!" Gong Zhutong agreed, and then he said, "I have seen the camp of the orcs opposite today. In my experience, I estimate that there are only more than 3,000 orcs on the opposite side. And we have an army of 8,000 now! I think we should take this opportunity to send troops to destroy these orcs. I don't know Brother Xue, what do you think?"

"Ha ha, general. This defense policy against the enemy was discussed by everyone last night. Xue Jin replied politely, "Mr. Zhang is not in the camp now. I'm afraid it's not good to send troops rashly?"

"Alas! That Zhentian is just a literati mage. What does he know? After listening to Xue Jin's words, he waved his hand, "He said that he would not use troops!" If we delay the time and delay the fighter, it will be difficult for us to compete with the orc's reinforcements in the future.

Xue Jin listened to the words of building together, and he secretly nod his head. He also felt that it was very reasonable to build the same words. Now the original people are powerful and the orcs are weak. If he takes this opportunity to send troops to attack the orcs' camp, he is likely to drive the orcs away from the eight slopes in the first battle. However, he, who has been dealing with orcs all year round, also knows that orcs are also tricky and extremely smart, and not so easy to deal with. Therefore, he looked at the common building and said respectfully, "General, what you said is feasible. However, we should also take a long-term perspective. Do you think it's better for us to gather the generals to discuss it?

"Alas! You are also in such trouble. Gongzhu glanced at Xue Jin with dissatisfaction. "I thought you people in Yanyun were all heroic people, but when I saw you today, it was nothing more than that." After saying that, he turned to his camp.
