The fifth day of the fifth month is another Dragon Boat Festival.

This year's Dragon Boat Festival is obviously a bit different from usual. The dense dark clouds and rumbling thunder make the local weather in Muzhou look particularly depressing, and it's a storm. What makes the local people feel even more uneasy is that officials have left the city from time to time in the past few days. As for their whereabouts, it's unknown.

As the commander of the Song army, Sun Tu did not make any move this time. In fact, with his current status and status, he really did not need to do everything himself and always rushed to the front of the team. Even if today's battle is related to the final end of the sanction of the Jiangnan rebellion, he only needs to sit firmly in the city and wait for the good news to come.

At dusk, it was already dark. With a lightning bolt struck the sky, a thunder sounded, and the heavy rain that had been holding on for a day had already fallen, causing the originally stuffy weather to suddenly relax. Sun Tu, who had been sitting in the hall before, also stood up and walked into the hall outside the hall, looked up at the rain line connecting the sky and the earth, and exhaled gently: "It's time for a result..."

"It should be the same. With the abilities of those soldiers and the locals in Yuandong, they will be caught off guard. Moreover, even if Fang La wants to escape in this weather, he will definitely be able to capture him in one fell swoop today and eliminate future troubles forever!" Tong Mu said in a very affirmative tone with boxing.

"Yes, we have done everything, and there is no reason to make any mistakes. Then let's wait a little longer, and the news will be transmitted back around dawn." Sun Tu's lips curled up, but the man had turned around and returned to the hall. Even if there was another thunder behind him, his body did not shake at all.

The same thunder sounded naturally even louder at high places, especially when standing in the mountains, without any obstacles. Seeing lightning break through the sky from the top of your head, the thunder rumbling in your ears, which made Qu Hu's heart twitch unconsciously, and a hint of confusion arose.

But he had long been used to this. Since he followed His Majesty from Muzhou and fled up the mountain, almost all his brothers were puzzled, full of fear and anxiety. Who would have thought that in just over a year, they would have been able to take down the entire Jiangnan area and be completely defeated. Even their last nest could not be kept, and they could only escape into the remote forests of this poor countryside.

This shouldn't be like this. Under Your Majesty, Fang Xiang, and General Pang Shuai and General Fang, our Wu army should have swept across the south of the Yangtze River and entered the Central Plains to fight against the already decaying Song court and seize their country. But in the end, this result is now that the road ahead is slim and there is no idea how to survive.

In fact, in the past two months after escaping into the mountains, seven out of ten people who had followed His Majesty before, leaving only the most loyal group of people left. And even so, many of these people had the intention of escaping because they were not used to the hardships of the day. Now, there are only more than 500 brothers waiting around the cave where His Majesty is located. If this continues, in another month or two, even if the official army has not entered the mountain to attack, they will disperse themselves.

Qu Hu was just an illiterate martial artist, and he only thought about his loyalty. So although he saw some problems, he didn't know how to solve them. The only thing he could do was to guard this area and not allow any possible threats to appear in front of His Majesty.

The same is true tonight. The sultry weather and the sudden thunderstorm made him feel uneasy, so he brought a few confidants and walked around the edge of the forest in the dark to prevent anything from happening. Although he was waiting for this night, his eyesight was not affected too much, and he could still clearly see the situation outside.

Just as he walked to the corner of a valley ahead, he suddenly saw a black shadow floating by, which made his heart suddenly lift. He had already held the spear tightly with one hand, and his pace became extremely fast. He shouted in a low voice: "What!" As he shouted, the soldiers following him became alert, and they all raised their guns and made preparations for the battle. Because of his great skills, he took the lead and rushed to the front, and turned around the corner with a whirlwind.

Originally, he only thought that the little beasts in the mountains were frightened by lightning and thunder. Although they seemed full of momentum, they did not really recognize that there would be any terrible enemy at this time. But just as he jumped around the corner and looked at his eyes suddenly, he was frightened to find that there were many people lying in front of them, all of whom were sharp weapons, like beasts lying dormant and hunting...

"Yes..." He was about to warn him loudly, but lightning bolts in the sky again, and then another thunder blasted, which completely covered his roar. And at the moment when the lightning suddenly rose, two people flashed out from the black shadows hiding here and came to him as fast as possible. Halfway through, three cold lights had already slashed at his throat and heart faster than lightning.

When the lightning disappeared and the subordinates behind rushed over, Qu Hu's body had already trembled, completely lost his strength, and fell down on his back.

This incident was too sudden and too fast, which made these Wu army remnants unable to react next. Someone opened his mouth, but because of fear, he couldn't even call for warning. At this time, the large black shadow in front of him had rushed over, raising swords and guns together, killing fiercely, without any restraint, and there was no intention of leaving any survivor.

Since the Wu army patrol was found here, it proves that the target they were looking for was ahead, so there was no need for any captives, just to get closer before the enemy discovered their whereabouts and launch the final attack as soon as possible.

When another lightning flashed, there were only large corpses on this valley, as well as blood that was washed by rain but could not be washed away by any means. The murderers who caused all this appeared in front of the simple bamboo and wooden house, and a new round of slaughter was about to begin.

"Boom..." Although he was deep in the cave, the thunder of shock tonight was clearly transmitted to Fang La's ears who could not fall asleep, making his whole body more nervous. After suddenly sitting up, he looked at Fang Fei, who was still flipping books under the firelight not far away: "Brother Eighth brother, we don't have much food now, right?"

Fang Fei put down the book, and his face looked a little bitter: "The Fourth Brother said it is right. After all, there is not too much food stored in the Yuandong area. And we can't ask for more, otherwise they won't have enough people to eat. Luo Laosi and the others have helped us too much. If we get more aggressive, we will probably cause them to be dissatisfied."

"Then what should we do next? Also, will Song Jun really let us go? Most of the brothers escaped secretly, and it will be more and more difficult to protect themselves."

"This..." Fang Fei couldn't give an answer for a while. Although he had outstanding talents and good governance, such a desperate situation could not be solved by humans.

"Why don't we leave here before the official army arrives? Now it seems that Jiangnan has no place to stand. Why don't we go elsewhere and find a way to live?"

"No, Fourth Brother, this is our foundation. It's not even harder to live here. It's not even harder to go elsewhere? Besides, brothers may not be willing to follow us and make this happen again..." Although he didn't want to admit some things, he had to face them. In fact, those brothers are no longer the ones who could have sacrificed their lives with Fang La a few years ago. They have enjoyed the good life of great power and good life. Now they have to continue to follow them because they are worried about the court's punishment.

Therefore, it is impossible for these people to leave their hometowns and go elsewhere, and it is very likely that they can't even find another opportunity to fight the Song army. But he is hard to say such words, at least he can't explain them clearly to Fang La.

In fact, it is not just them, but Fang Fei and Fang La in front of him, who have long lost the enterprising and courage he had at the time. Now they are just a group of fish that are at the end of the road, which is something Fang Fei would never have thought of before.

Fang La seemed to feel this, and his face became more and more ugly. Then he suddenly stood up, walked to the side, picked up a steel knife, and slowly pulled it out.

Under the reflection of the fire, the knife still flashed with a terrifying cold light, and the blade was still sharp. This was his sword that he had always been in the south of Jiangnan, and he also killed many enemies with it. But in the past two years, the knife has been in the sheath, and it has not been used for a long time. Even holding it in his hand, he felt a moment of alienation.

"Old Ba, do you think I'm old and useless? Now, I don't even have the courage to draw my sword to fight..." Fang La suddenly asked, but Fang Fei didn't know what to answer.

Just when the atmosphere in the cave was slightly depressing and embarrassing, a scream suddenly sounded outside, and then a fight came, which made the faces of the two suddenly change.

At the same time, several guards guarding in front of the cave suddenly flashed in: "Your Majesty, leave quickly, and an official army suddenly came up..." This sentence immediately made the two people in it completely stunned. Although they had thought that there would be such a day, they did not expect that this day would come so quickly and so suddenly.
