After the public announcement, the leaders responded with an outburst of approval.
Like Timur, they were also looking forward to King Zhelan's army moving south and leaving Canglang Lake as soon as possible.
After giving some instructions to the men who stayed behind in the camp, Timur asked the guards to prepare his horse and put on his armor.
King Zhelan asked him to pursue him closely, and he would probably have to spend the night outside Shuozhou City soon!
"Sir, we have caught a spy. When we questioned him, he said nothing but that he had something to tell you in person."
Just then, a subordinate came hurriedly to report.
"Huh? Bring him in!" Timur frowned.
Then, two soldiers brought a man dressed as a Northern Di herdsman to Timur.
"Who are you and what do you want from me?" Timur asked with a gloomy expression.
The herdsman asked carefully, "Are you the captain of the Timur division?"
"Nonsense, if he is not our captain, who else could it be? If you keep talking nonsense, I will kill you with a knife!" A soldier shouted without any hesitation.
Timur glared at the soldier and said, "I am Timur. Who sent you?"
"Master Qianchang, I was sent by the Second Master Bai to deliver a message to you!"
Timur immediately got furious:
"What? Bai Shouren, he still has the nerve to send me a message? Last time, he was late in delivering the salt and iron I asked for, and I was planning to settle the score with him!"

Bai Shouren said that the border was too tightly guarded and it would be very difficult to evade smuggling.
Timur was in urgent need of salt and iron, so he paid for it on the spot before Bai Shouren agreed to send him another batch.
But in the end, Timur never received the salt and iron sent by Bai Shouren, and there was not even any news.
Timur has greeted Bai Shouren thousands of times and vowed to make the Bai family pay tenfold after the Northern Di army captures Shuozhou Prefecture!
"Master Qian, please calm down. There is a reason why our Second Master hasn't been able to deliver it yet!"
"That batch of salt and iron was hijacked by Zhao Muyun, the squad leader of the Yanqingdun Beacon Tower in Jingbian Military Town!"
Zhao Muyun!
Why is it him again?
Upon hearing the name, Timur's eyes turned bloodshot and he glared fiercely at the messenger: "Is this all your second-in-command told me? What does he mean?"
“No, no, no!”
The messenger trembled at the sight of Timur's ferocious appearance. "Captain, our Second Boss said that Zhao Muyun and his caravan entered the prairie from Piantou Pass and were heading west of Daqing Mountain!"
"Um?"
