When the west gate of Ye Cangcheng opened, everyone saw only: Ou Luyang and Xia Junmao rode their horses first with serious faces; followed by the fourth army of Han Daowei, and several people surrounded a horse in the middle, carrying a white cloth pocket on their backs, which seemed to be filled with a person; at the end was Xuan Shaoning, who was tied up and escorted. This scene made everyone confused for a moment, and Huo Qing, who was also watching, saw everything in his eyes and ran away hurriedly.

"Huo Qing, why are you doing so urgently?" Ling Feiyan walked out of the camp and ran into Huo Qing, who was sweating profusely.

"What happened, I saw... I saw Shaoning being tied up and taken to the general's mansion!" Huo Qing couldn't even bear to take a breath, for fear of wasting time to save people.

"Ah? How could it be?" Ling Feiyan was shocked by the sudden news. "What would Shaoning do?"

Hearing his daughter's voice, Ling Tieying also came out. When he heard something happened to Xuan Shaoning, he was not at a loss as the two of them. He ordered calmly: "Don't be anxious, Huo Qing, go to Rush Guard to tell Zhengyuan immediately, Feiyan and I will go to the general's mansion immediately. The general has always been fair and will not let Shaoning be injustice. Besides, Mr. Mo is there, don't worry!"

"Okay, I'll go now!" Huo Qing hurriedly ran towards the direction of the Rush Guard, and Ling Tieying and his daughter also rushed to the General's Mansion.

Ou Luyang and his group had just arrived at the gate of the general's mansion. King Yu and Mo Chengfeng, who had received the news in advance, were already waiting.

"The last general will meet the general!" Ou Luyang dismounted and saluted.

"No need to polite, make it clear!" King Yu's face turned pale.

"Yes, general. His subordinates went out of the city to investigate the bloody case yesterday. They found the bodies of their brothers on the grassland beside the Yelong Water, but the head was not found. Therefore, the Mo Chang ordered everyone to scatter and find clues. Chief Song and his team went to Liubo Mountain, and before they could, the news of Chief Song's attack was reported. When Xuan Shaoning carried Chief Song down the mountain, Chief Song was seriously injured and could not tell the truth. At that time, Xuan Shaoning actually ran into the mountain without authorization when the situation of the enemy and us was not clear. His appearance was suspicious. General Song would temporarily detain him."

What Ou Luyang said is indeed consistent with the facts, but the real situation is not exactly the case. Xuan Shaoning felt that he had to explain, "General! General Song and I found a suspicious figure and went to pursue him. At that time, I was in front and the sergeant was behind. Later, I only felt that the sergeant pushed me behind, and then the sergeant was hit by the arrow... And I later returned to the scene to retrieve the arrow!"

Xuan Shaoning wanted to explain, but she ushered in Xia Junmao's gaze. The gaze was calm and fleeting, but Xuan Shaoning still understood its meaning - don't worry about making a defense for the time being.

"The general has carefully observed the surroundings of the scene. Xuan Shaoning himself suggested to distinguish whether he was his own or the Western Liang Army based on the pattern of the shoe prints. There were only his own shoe prints on the snow at the scene, and there was no clue about the Western Liang Army!" Ou Luyang said that he looked at the golden armor guard behind him who took the lead in capturing Xuan Shaoning. The man understood it. As the only witness of the suspicious footprints, his words were very important.

"Reporting to the general, commander, and subordinates were ordered to capture the suspect. Footprints were indeed found at the attack of Chief Song, but... those footprints were messy, and the last one only took a look and it was difficult to make a conclusion."

Ou Luyang raised his eyebrows, his expression still remained unchanged.

"Let me see." Mo Chengfeng immediately stepped forward, and several people worked together to lift and lift the cloth bag containing Song Mi's body. At this time, Song Mi's whole body was cold, her limbs were stiff, her face was pale, and there was only a wound on her chest. The wound was irregular, and the blood at the wound had solidified into purple-black. Mo Chengfeng did not let others intervene, so he laid a white mat on the ground and placed Song Mi's body on it. Then he dragged out a military tent that had been prepared and built on the body, surrounding three sides, leaving only one hole for him to enter and exit.

Mo Chengfeng tried his best to fold the stiff corpse back and forth, and after that, Song Mi's corpse finally resumed a certain degree of activity; then untied the armor and clothes of the corpse, carefully examined the whole body back and forth, and found that there was only one wound on the chest, which hurt the heart veins and penetrated through it. Seeing this, Mo Chengfeng's hand trembled slightly, and his brows frowned into the character Sichuan.

After one stick of incense, Mo Chengfeng withdrew from the temporary military tent.

"What did you find?" King Yu asked anxiously when he saw Mo Chengfeng coming out.

"Sir Song died of a sharp weapon through his chest and was too serious..." Mo Chengfeng said his autopsy analysis, paused, looked at the group of people around him, and continued: "The murderer should have used weapons such as arrows, but they are not ordinary feather arrows. The man with arrows has very and extremely accurate penetration. The cluster of arrows passed through his chest and cut off his heart veins."

"General, this is the weapon!" Ou Luyang presented the dark green arrow brought back by Xuan Shaoning at the right time.

King Yu took the arrow and looked at it carefully: the arrow was more than two feet long, and the whole body seemed to be forged from pure copper. Three small split wings were about two inches cracked at the tail. The arrow cluster was only thick with rice grains and split into six edges. The entire arrow emitted a faint green color under the sun, which was quite intoxicating.

King Yu stroked the arrow body back and forth, and after a while, he widened his eyes and looked at Mo Chengfeng. The other party said, "Analysis according to the channel formed by the wound, the arrow shot in from the front chest and penetrated from the back."

"That means that the murderer would not be Xuan Shaoning!" Xia Junmao immediately said: "At that time, Xuan Shaoning ran in front of Chief Song, and he had no chance to shoot arrows from behind him. Even if Xuan Shaoning wanted to cover up, how could Chief Song be unprepared?"

"Who is in front and who is behind is not the key. Even ordinary people pay attention to an angle and distance when shooting archery. If you want to shoot through the other party's chest with one arrow, you must maintain a certain distance and face the other party head-on. Can Commander Ou agree with this?" Xia Junmao asked back.

Although Ou Luyang wanted to refute, he really couldn't find a reason. This was indeed the case, so he could only nod.

"Okay, since the above two points are true, then assuming that Xuan Shaoning is the murderer, he must first keep a certain distance from Chief Song. Now Chief Song has been killed, and Xuan Shaoning is the biggest suspect. So who was the closest distance between them at that time?" Xia Junmao was on the verge of the fourth army.

Xing Gang immediately jumped out, "It's me! After hearing the movement, I was the first one to rush towards the commander!"

"You? Your foot strength is probably far worse than Chief Song, right?" Ou Luyang raised objection.

"Commander European said this and underestimated us!" Meng Kebao was the first to stand up to oppose, "Xinggang has the best foot strength among us. If you don't talk big, even if you look at the entire army, those who can surpass him will be back with two hands."

"I have experienced Xinggang's pursuit skills." Xia Junmao expressed his position clearly and clearly.

Ou Luyang glanced at King Yu's expression and stopped making a sound.

"So, Xinggang, did you see the distance between them?" Mo Chengfeng continued to ask.

Xing Gang thought for a while, "Although there were trees covering me at that time, I could see it clearly, and Shaoning was just one arm away from the front of the sergeant."

"It's hard to bend a bow by just one arm..." Cao Tie murmured.

"Yes, the distance between one arm is far from enough to bend the bow. Not to mention that an arrow passes through the body, even ordinary archery is difficult to perform. Moreover, the wound behind Chief Song is even heavier, and the crack is also thread-shaped, which shows that the arrow is shot from behind and through his chest. With these two points, the suspicion of Xuan Shaoning has been completely eliminated." Mo Chengfeng once again defended Xuan Shaoning in more detail.

"The facts are clear. Let Xuan Shaoning loosen his ties first!" King Yu ordered without hesitation.

Seeing that King Yu had made a final decision, Xuan Shaoning also regained his freedom, Ou Luyang immediately apologized and said, "I am guilty! I was so anxious that I could not tell the right and wrong in time and misunderstood my brothers. Fortunately, Master Mo's reasoning and General's clear observation made my subordinates make them make them wrong again and again!"

Xuan Shaoning moved his upper body that was so sore and almost lost consciousness. Seeing Ou Luyang's performance, a sense of disgust surged in his heart.

Sure enough, King Yu helped Ou Luyang up the kneeling down and comforted him: "Commander Ou is serious. The incident happened suddenly. The commander did everything on the right track. Besides, the facts are clear at present, so why blame me!"

"Thank you, General!" Ou Luyang then turned around and bowed to Xuan Shaoning and said, "I hope Brother Shaoning should not be offended!"

This! Xuan Shaoning was confused by this sudden change. He really couldn't have imagined that this person's face would be so quickly!

"The commander is a model for us to reflect on himself and apologize for guilt!" Xia Junmao shook his eyes at Xuan Shaoning.

"Oh... the commander is so serious. It's the last general who violates discipline first. How dare he ask the commander to apologize!" Xuan Shaoning also bowed and returned the courtesy. When his face was facing the ground, he scolded himself fiercely. These responses have not been learned by the academy!

At this moment, Huo Qing and Shi Gong Zhengyuan also arrived, and stood in the crowd with Ling Tieying and his daughter. Seeing that Xuan Shaoning was loosened, although the few people did not understand how the situation turned around, they saw that they were fine and wiped the sweat from their foreheads and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since the facts have been found out and the misunderstanding has been resolved, Song Mi must be buried well. As for the murderer... I hereby swear to you that I will catch him!" King Yu said sternly to all the soldiers and civilians present.

I thought the matter had come to an end, but I didn't expect Lei Peng suddenly walked out of the crowd and knelt in front of King Yu with a loud bang. He said nothing. The rest of the fourth corps knelt down in a tacit understanding.

"What are you doing?" Ou Luyang scolded.

"General, we are from a low-class background and can't say any solemn oath, but our relationship with the sergeant was exchanged for blood on the battlefield. He is not only our sergeant but also our brother. We are sadder than anyone else's death! We thank the general and Master Mo for their innocentness. We admire his mind and courage. We must avenge Chief Song's revenge, and we are the fourth sergeant in front of us, so we beg the general to agree to let Xuan Shaoning be our new sergeant!" After Lei Peng finished speaking, the eight men kowtowed together.

"I am becoming more and more presumptuous. Even if I have cleared my suspicion of Xuan Shaoning, it will be your turn to decide the appointment of the sergeant!" If King Yu hadn't been present, Ou Luyang really wanted to take all these people out for military law to deal with.

At this moment, everyone looked at King Yu, and only King Yu could make the final decision.

Everyone who watched this scene was surprised and inexplicably. Huo Qing even grabbed Shi Gong Zhengyuan's hand tightly, not daring to blink for a moment, for fear of missing any scene.

"Justice Ou just now also said that Xuan Shaoning discovered the difference in shoe prints, which shows that he was meticulous. Since he joined my Xuanjia Army for more than half a year, looking at his words and deeds, I also think he is a stylist. This time we lost Commander Song, and the one who was with Commander Song was also Xuan Shaoning, perhaps in the dark. Song Mi experienced the dangers with you, he sacrificed to protect you, and this burden was handed over to you, and I think Song Mi's spirit in the sky must also agree!"

Xuan Shaoning was unexpected about Lei Peng's sudden petition. Looking at him, it was enough to be glad that he had just cleared his suspicion. How could he dare to expect the position of sergeant chief? In this case, it was too much for him to make a decision. Why didn't he discuss it with him in advance? What Xuan Shaoning didn't expect was that King Yu's words seemed to agree with Lei Peng's request!

"Okay, the new commander of the fourth Han Dao Guard has already been selected. Xuan Shaoning, obey the order!"

If there were eggs on the spot, Xuan Shaoning would definitely be able to stuff the eggs into his mouth. He widened his eyes and opened his mouth to the greatest limit. This was not a dream, right? This short half-day process seemed like he fell from flat ground to hell and was thrown to the clouds. It could no longer be described as a dream.

Faced with the appointment of King Yu, Xuan Shaoning was stunned, his mind was blank, and he didn't know how to respond or speak. He only felt that the blood in his body cooled down and then returned to warm again, and then encountered ice again, feeling that he had lost most of it.

"Shaoning, can't you order it?" Xia Junmao urged.

"The last one...yes!"

"I will promote you to the commander of the fourth rank!"

“Yes…yes!”

When Xuan Shaoning knelt down and took over the appointment, the fourth army finally breathed a sigh of relief. Ling Feiyan and his friends' tense faces were finally liberated, and they could smile after relaxing their expressions.

Ou Luyang never expected the ending to be like this. Seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, he had to express his opinion immediately: "Congratulations to Chief Xuan! Under your leadership, the Fourth Army will definitely find out the real murderer as soon as possible, seek justice for Chief Song, and avenge him!"

The sorrow and joy were intertwined, and the complex and inexplicable feeling had not yet subsided, but facing Ou Luyang, Xuan Shaoning still recovered his mind. "What Commander Ou said is that we must avenge Chief Song's revenge, and the first thing in front of us is to bury Chief Song for a good life."
