[Recite the URL silently three times. Do you remember it? If you don’t remember, I’ll ask again in the next chapter. It’s best to share it on Facebook for me]

Early the next morning, Li Beifeng was awakened by the noise outside the inn.

I stood up and opened the window to take a look, and found that there were many hurried pedestrians on the street outside the inn.

On the street not far away, there seemed to be more guards patrolling the city than yesterday.

The guards looked serious and walked among the people on the street. There was a tense atmosphere in the city.

In the teahouse not far from the inn, there were still people talking loudly, with sharp words and an excited tone...

what happened?

Li Beifeng opened the door and went downstairs.

Downstairs, Lin Ning was already waiting in the lobby.

"Dharma Protector!"

Li Beifeng nodded slightly, glanced at the street, and asked, "What happened?"

"Something big happened!"

Lin Ning's expression was a little solemn as he explained: "Not long ago, during the heavy snowfall in Beizhou, someone in a small town in the north incited the people to riot and rebel. In just a few days, the rebel forces successively attacked several nearby counties... Within Beizhou The officials quickly mobilized troops and horses to suppress the encirclement and suppression. At the beginning, the Beizhou army was overwhelming, and soon the group of rebel forces were defeated step by step, leaving them vulnerable..."

"However, just yesterday..."

Lin Ning took a deep breath, and there was a trace of anger on his face: "The Beizhou Army... was defeated!"

"Failed?"

Li Beifeng was a little surprised: "How did you lose?"

Lin Ning shook his head slightly and said attentively: "I heard that the Beizhou Army quickly regained the city first, beat the rebels to a pulp and forced them into a desperate situation. Just when everyone thought that what followed was a one-sided massacre, The rebel army suddenly attacked the barracks of the Beizhou Army overnight and assassinated the generals of the Beizhou Army... After that, the Beizhou Army was caught off guard and instantly collapsed. It was defeated by the rebels. The 10,000 Beizhou Army suffered more than half of its casualties... …”

"Early this morning, the news has spread throughout Beizhou..."

When talking about this, Lin Ning was very angry: "The Beizhou Army is one of our most elite troops in Dazhao, but it ended up being beaten like this by a group of incompetent rebels... Although there is a reason for underestimating the enemy, I'm afraid , I’m afraid there may be a big problem within the Beizhou Army..."

"..."

Li Beifeng nodded slightly.

No wonder the city is so lively today, this news... is really surprising.

The dignified and regular Beizhou Army, the elite troops of Dazhao, lost to a group of shabby rebels?

This is somewhat unimaginable.

No wonder the people in the city are in panic today... The Beizhou Army was defeated by the rebels today. Will the rebels come tomorrow?

No one knows!

Dazhao's Beizhou Army, as the absolute main force in Beizhou, is definitely not a general. Whether it is the quality of the army, equipment, tactics or even armaments, it is not something that the gang of rebels can compete with.

No matter what, it’s hard to imagine them losing!

Even if you underestimate the enemy, it is impossible.

Unless there is something wrong within the Beizhou Army.

This Beizhou Army...has a traitor?

"Lost?!"

Beizhou, Sunset City.

Governor's Mansion!

A middle-aged man slammed the information in his hand to the ground.

"Snapped!"

The bamboo slip information instantly fell to pieces on the ground and flew into pieces.

In front of the door, three generals were kneeling.

Wearing clothes and armor, one of them was covered in blood, looking miserable and exhausted.

At this moment, the three of them were all trembling with fear and did not dare to express their anger.

In front of them stood a middle-aged man with a reserved aura and deep eyes.

At this time, the middle-aged man was furious.

He pointed at the ground and said angrily: "Our Beizhou Army's 10,000 elite soldiers actually lost to the rebels who only had more than 7,000 people?"

"Tell me? Why is this?!"

"say!!"

The thunderous questioning made these generals dare not even breathe.

The middle-aged man in front of him is the governor of Beizhou, He Wansheng.

At this moment, the leading military general said in a trembling tone: "He Da, sir, then, the rebels raided our camp last night and assassinated Lord Wu. The morale of our army was confused, and the command of all the generals was confused. Plus, I fell into the trap of those rebels..."

"So, what you are saying is that the gang of rebels who attacked you are to blame for this incident?"

He Wansheng stared at him coldly.

"No, I don't dare..." The man trembled all over.

"The 10,000 elite Beizhou Army was actually able to be sneaked into the camp by a group of rebels and assassinated the generals... Is this what you told me?!"

"Our Beizhou Army is so vulnerable? Is the defense line just in vain?"

"What's the point of keeping you losers?"

"Come here, drag me out and subject you to military law!"

He Wansheng waved his hand coldly.

The three of them were immediately horrified.

"Master He, please spare my life!"

"Give us another chance..."

"..."

Three people were dragged down.

He Wansheng stood there with a gloomy expression.

He was still angry.

Ten thousand regular Beizhou troops could not defeat seven thousand rebels.

This news not only made him angry, but also made him terrified.

What has the Beizhou Army deteriorated into over the years?

In order to suppress and conquer Beizhou, Dazhao has continuously poured too much effort into Beizhou over the years.

Because of this, the army in Beizhou received too many benefits and began to breed corruption.

There is no way of knowing how many internal contacts from the old Northern Qi Party are there within the Beizhou Army!

But he knows very well that now has reached the most critical moment.

The power of the old Northern Qi Party is ready to move and is gradually growing secretly.

In the past few years, he tried his best to eradicate the alien parties in Beizhou, but with little success.

The overt and covert fighting in the Jokhang court, the indecision of officials from various departments in Beizhou, and the secret obstruction made this matter unimaginably difficult.

Over the years, he has tried his best to operate, but at most he can only ensure that Beizhou is not in chaos.

But now...

This incident taught him a harsh lesson.

Beizhou Army, I'm afraid there is a big problem internally!

Nowadays, the combat effectiveness of the Beizhou Army is in doubt. Once the old Northern Qi Party comes back, will the Beizhou Army be able to withstand the offensive of the Old Northern Qi Party?

He Wansheng was unsure!

"Somebody come!"

Soon, a master walked in from the door and said respectfully: "Sir!"

"Fei Ge sent a letter to inform the prefects of all counties and counties to be on guard and keep an eye on the movements of those people in the rivers and lakes... Once they are found to have an affair with the rebels in the north, they will be killed without mercy!"

"Go and call me the generals stationed outside Sunset City and prepare to move the army northward!"

When the master heard this, he was immediately shocked: "Sir, are you trying to..."

"The Beizhou Army has been defeated and cannot be defeated again!"

He Wansheng's eyes were serious.

The Beizhou Army suffered heavy losses this time. Such an ugly defeat undoubtedly hit him hard in the face!

At the same time, it also disgraced the entire Beizhou Army.

As soon as this news comes out, those rebel parties will become more arrogant and domineering. If they cannot be suppressed and eradicated with thunderous means as soon as possible, I am afraid Beizhou will be in chaos!

Once the Beizhou Army fails to deter them, the old gang of Northern Qi will definitely come out to cause chaos.

Until then, it’s really over!

Beizhou is not far from the critical moment of life and death!

The news that the Beizhou Army had been defeated by the rebels spread throughout Beizhou overnight, causing a huge shock response.

I'm afraid no one thought that the Beizhou Army would lose.

He would lose so miserably!

The people in the entire Beizhou area were shocked!

Especially the people of Sunset City, many people started to panic after hearing the news.

The Beizhou Army is no match for the rebels. What if the rebels attack at that time?

Will they surrender, or will they struggle and then surrender?

Immediately afterwards, there were many bad remarks in the city, and the trend gradually changed.

At the same time, there were several times more guards in the city than before, and the entire city was filled with a tense and serious atmosphere.

People are terrified.

It was at this time that the men guarding outside Sunset City suddenly came back to report.

The girl who often goes to see the old cripple appears!

"Appeared?"

"Yes, not long ago, we saw that girl appearing in the village. She was exactly the same as the old man in the village described... It was probably her!"

After hearing the news, Li Beifeng said seriously: "Where is she now?"

"After learning that the person died, the girl was very sad... While she was going to worship, I had people watching her, and then I came back to report the matter to you, the protector!"

"Let's go and have a look!"

Li Beifeng stood up and led the people outside the city.

The old lame man is probably the old eunuch who survived the Northern Qi Palace. He is one of the few people left who may know Li Beifeng's life experience.

Now that he is dead, the only clue left is in this mysterious girl...

This clue cannot be solved.

No matter what, Li Beifeng must find out!

outside the city.

When Li Beifeng arrived at the village, Lin Ning had been waiting in the village for a long time.

Li Beifeng asked: "Where is he?"

Lin Ning pointed to the mountain at the back of the village: "The person is buried there, and the girl is worshiping at the mountain... We didn't get too close to avoid disturbing the situation!"

Li Beifeng nodded slightly and looked at the back mountain not far away.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the back mountain.

coming!

A young girl was walking down the mountain. She was obviously the girl Lin Ning was talking about.

Li Beifeng and others quickly hid aside and hid their figures.

However, when Li Beifeng saw this young girl, he suddenly felt that she looked familiar.

Where have you seen it?

The girl gradually got closer and closer, and Li Beifeng felt more and more familiar.

etc……

Yellow clothes?

Something suddenly appeared in Li Beifeng's mind.

This, this is not...

The thief who stole his money bag that day in the city? !

Li Beifeng didn't see the little thief clearly, but the yellow clothes on her left a deep impression.

...For the first time in my life, someone had my wallet stolen, and even had it run away!

Li Beifeng felt deeply impressed!

Good guy!

It turns out to be her! !

It’s really... Enemies meet on a narrow road!

Li Beifeng sneered.

The person who appeared in Li Beifeng's sight was the young woman in yellow.

She looked slightly lost and sad at this time, her eyes were slightly red, and she was leaving the village and returning to the city in despair.

"Dharma protector, what should we do next?"

Lin Ning asked from the side: "Should we... arrest the person directly and interrogate him?"

Arresting people for interrogation is what he is good at.

"No need for now, don't alert others!"

Li Beifeng squinted his eyes slightly. Before he knew the identity of the other party, it would not be good to use force directly.

What's more important...after learning that this girl was the one who stole his wallet.

Li Beifeng plans to change his strategy.

"Follow her, see where she goes, and determine her whereabouts and identity before taking action!"

"yes!"

The woman in yellow didn't notice the person following behind her.

She returned to the city a little disappointed, and then she cheered up a little.

She walked quickly through the city, her steps were nimble and her speed was very fast.

Not long after, she stopped in front of a shop.

It was a pastry shop.

After hesitating for a long time in the store and buying some pastries, she carefully put away the pastries.

Then, he turned around and went into the alley next to him.

"Dharma protector, the investigation is clear!"

Lin Ning came to report: "She entered a courtyard not far over there. There seemed to be other people in the courtyard... We didn't get close, for fear of disturbing the situation. What should we do next? Arrest someone?"

After listening to Lin Ning's report, Li Beifeng shook his head gently: "You guys stay still for now, I'll go take a look!"

Before confirming the strength of the opponent, Li Beifeng did not plan to act rashly for the time being.

This man in yellow was able to steal his wallet and get rid of Li Beifeng's pursuit, so he probably had a lot of background.

Just in case, he decided to test it first.

After saying that, Li Beifeng got into the alley.

After passing through a complicated alley, we came to the door of a small courtyard and could vaguely hear the sound coming from the courtyard.

There was a woman's voice, and there seemed to be... a child's voice?

He watched at the door for a moment, then came to the wall, jumped up, and jumped onto the eaves!

The cat was on the eaves of the fence, and Li Beifeng quietly sneaked into a part of the yard.

Li Beifeng, who was hiding behind the eaves, looked at the small courtyard in front of him.

This is a very dilapidated courtyard.

The yard looked in a state of disrepair and could barely be inhabited.

But no matter how you look at it, it feels like...an abandoned little courtyard.

At this time, there were many children's voices coming from a room in the yard.

Not long after, I saw several children running out of the room excitedly.

Several young children were running and playing in the yard.

A clear and somewhat stern voice came from behind: "Xiaohua, Xiaoju, slow down, don't fall!"

It was the woman in yellow who walked out of the room!

That's her!

Li Beifeng's eyes fell on her face.

A very beautiful girl, with good looks and good temperament.

Especially those eyes... they still look vaguely familiar!

...What do you mean for such a beautiful girl to do something bad, but to imitate others in stealing?

Isn’t it possible to raise children by stealing?

Li Beifeng's eyes fell on those children... She shouldn't be that fertile, right?

She looks about the same age as Li Beifeng, and her body is a little thin...it doesn't look like she can have a baby.

While scolding the naughty children, she turned around and planned to go back to her room.

However, at this moment, she seemed to notice something.

He paused on the spot, suddenly raised his head, and looked at the direction of Li Beifeng on the eaves.

The next second, her eyes were startled, she suddenly became alert, and her tone was sharp: "Who is it?!"

Discovered?

So alert?

Now that he was discovered, Li Beifeng did not continue to hide.

He stood up slowly and appeared in her sight.

When she saw Li Beifeng, her eyes suddenly became panicked.

"You...that's you?!!"
