"Men, come in."

"Marshal, your subordinate is here!" When the gatekeeper heard Murong Xiu's shout, he immediately entered the tent.

"Come here and spread the news that the western army has a batch of grain and fodder coming to this place. They want the men of the northern army to find out about it in secret." Do you hear me? "

"Yes, this subordinate understands." "Please rest assured, marshal!" After the man said this, he quickly walked out. Upon closer inspection, it was as if he hadn't fallen to the ground. It was obvious that this person was an expert, and was also one of Murong Xiu's trusted aides.

According to Murong Xiu's habits, Zi Yuan was good at assassinating people, and was also very strong at assassinating people, so Zi Yuan would definitely send out his food when he received the news. Murong Xiu knew that, but Zi Yuan knew that; therefore, Murong Xiu also knew that if Zi Yuan heard that his food was about to arrive, he would definitely intercept it. Naturally, Murong Xiu had done something to the food.

To think that you, the Violet Garden, would actually set up a scheme to lure the Sovereign into the Urn. I can also give you one, this is what it means to follow the example of a real person, and Mu Rong Xiu's eyes became increasingly cold as he waited for news from the other side.

"What?" "You said that Murong Xiu brought the grain over to Han Valley Pass, and it's coming soon?" At that moment, Zi Yuan also said in surprise. It was obvious that he did not dare to believe it.

"Yes, General, and there seems to be a lot of them." The spy continued.

"Alright, I understand. You can leave now." At this time, Murong Xiu was actually sending food to the Han Valley Pass. Could it be that he wasn't afraid of being intercepted? When she thought of this, Zi Yuan's heart tightened and his mind raced.

But then again, when Zi Yuan heard the news, she was elated. If she could capture Murong Xiu before he received the food, it would be a blow to him.

Violet Garden had stayed in the army for a long time already, so she naturally knew how important food was to an army. Furthermore, after these past few days of war, they had almost used up all of the food on their side, and the people who were transporting the food were on the road, so they did not come. Last night, Violet Garden had been discussing with Blue Sky about how to deal with this problem.

He chose to launch another surprise attack tonight. He definitely had to get the food and fodder back so that he could not only strengthen the Northern Vietnamese army, but also give Murong Xiu a heavy blow. Why not? Thinking of this, the Violet Garden also decided to take a risk.

Afterwards, Violet Garden found Lan Cang. After all, he wasn't the marshal. There were things that needed to be planned properly with Lan Cang, and after Violet Garden finished talking to Lan Cang, Lan Cang didn't immediately refuse.

"I suspect there's something deceptive about it." Indeed, in Lan Cang's opinion, it was impossible for him to be robbed so easily. Moreover, the spy's information was not completely accurate, just like that idiot Li Yu. A general actually couldn't even compare to a spy, and this was a lesson Lan Cang had always remembered.

"I have my suspicions as well, but there are already a few spies reporting it to me. This matter should be true, but I'm worried that there might be an ambush there." After designing it a few times, the Purple Garden had gradually become more cautious in its actions. It knew that there was a possibility of danger and did not immediately inform Lan Cang.

"Yeah, it's good that you know it, but I know you must have your own thoughts since you said it, so just say it out." Lan Cang already knew that since the Violet Garden had spoken to him about this matter, there would definitely be an excuse for what happened next. The Violet Garden was very frustrated about this, as he would have to discuss it with her every time he acted, and even explain it to her. Although it was vexing, the Violet Garden was not angry, as she was a subordinate after all.

"General, if I lead a group of elites and rob the grain like a bolt of lightning, then that's fine. If there really is an ambush, then I can burn him down as well. That would be a huge blow to Murong Xiu." The Violet Garden had already thought of this plan long ago. At this moment, Lan Cang did not say anything to her. The two of them had been discussing about the matter of the rations yesterday, and now that they had actually delivered it to his doorstep, Lan Cang was slightly tempted. After hearing what Violet Garden had said, he had no way of refusing. He could only helplessly nod his head.

"Alright, be careful." As Zi Yuan left, Lan Cang finally smiled helplessly. Every time he faced Zi Yuan, she would make him circle around her, and for some reason, it was as if she had said that he couldn't reject her offer. After being in the army for so many years, he didn't have this kind of phenomenon, but in reality, apart from Zi Yuan's assassination skill and the Gao Dynasty's surprise attack, the entire military camp and even the entire world wouldn't be able to find him.

Zi Yuan had also stealthily prepared a set of clothes for the night. He had gone to raid the forest, not to battle, so everything had to be prepared simply, and Zi Feng and the rest of the group had led their elite troops to follow behind. At this moment, Zi Feng and the others were like nimble leopards as they traversed through the night. When they arrived at the edge of the forest, Zi Yuan suddenly stopped, and the people behind immediately understood what they were doing and went to find a hidden location.

"Stay here and wait for them to come out. Listen to my commands!" It was clear that she felt that she could not afford to lose this time.

A few people seemed to have lost their breath as they waited quietly in the forest. Other than the sound of the wind blowing, they also heard the sound of wheels being rolled over. Zi Yuan suddenly quieted down, and two pairs of sharp eyes stared at the carriage that was slowly approaching.

As for those people, it was as if they didn't have any defenses in place. Their numbers were only the number of ordinary people who would send food and fodder, so Zi Yuan felt that there was nothing to doubt.

Those people were also gradually walking over. The concealed weapon in Zi Yuan's hand was also preparing to attack. Suddenly, a burly man spoke.

"Hey, do you feel like something's wrong?" The big man also felt that this place was abnormal.

"What's wrong? "What's so strange about that?" The person beside him also asked doubtfully.

"This place is too quiet." The burly man was clearly a sensitive person, and he had actually discovered this unusual place. Indeed, the area where the Violet Garden was hiding at originally had some movement, and during this season, there would always be sounds of cicadas and birds chirping.

"Yeah, I feel it too. Hearing what you just said, something doesn't seem right." That person also asked doubtfully.

He didn't tell them what was being escorted inside, so this was why he didn't tell them about the opportunity and told them to go down and do it. Therefore, these people naturally didn't know what was inside, only that it was food, and when Zi Yuan heard the two of them talking, he knew that they were suspicious. However, he dispelled his suspicions because the enemy wasn't sure about his mission.

"Attack!" The Violet Garden suddenly let out a loud shout and immediately rushed over. After that, she raised the concealed weapon in her hand and the burly man immediately died.

When those people saw the enemy rushing over, they immediately shouted.

"Enemy attack!" As for the few people with him, they also quietly retreated. Zi Yuan also felt somewhat puzzled, but he also became cautious in his heart. Logically, these people should have known that they would not be able to escape, but looking at that person's speed just now, it was unexpectedly abnormally fast. This caused Zi Yuan to be puzzled.

After Zi Yuan killed the few people who were guarding the grain, he suddenly lifted up the coarse grain that was being covered by the grain pile. Inside the pile was gunpowder! With a loud boom, the Violet Garden was jolted awake. She then quickly retreated and shouted, "Quickly retreat! There's gunpowder inside!" Following Zi Yuan's loud shout, it was clearly too late. That person had actually used a fire piston to light it up.

The Purple Garden also leaped backwards with all its might, and those who could not dodge in time were blown into smithereens. Although the Purple Garden managed to escape a calamity, at that moment, it was heavily injured.

"Miss, are you alright?" Zi Feng was one of the lucky ones that managed to dodge the attack.

"Now is not the time to talk. Carry me away, cough cough." After speaking, the Violet Garden spat out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, the Violet Garden was already heavily injured.

"Miss, are you alright?" When Zi Feng saw that Zi Yuan spat out another mouthful of blood, he said with a worried look on his face. He and the rest of the group weren't harmed much since they were relatively close to the powder. Instead, in order to verify his thoughts, Zi Yuan directly lifted it up.

"It's fine. I'll meditate for a while. Gather the men and listen to my commands." At this moment, Zi Yuan knew that he had to heal himself as soon as possible, or else he would be in an even more dangerous situation. At this moment, Zi Yuan also felt admiration for Murong Xiu's plan to lure him into the grave. Murong Xiu must have his own methods too, but Murong Xiu's original intention wasn't to have Zi Yuan die. Now that he'd heard his subordinate talk about the situation over there, Murong Xiu was exceptionally furious.
