That night, a man dressed in Liao Dynasty attire left Yunzhou and headed straight for Li Zhu's camp...
Li Zhu, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes, and couldn't help but smile. So he finally couldn't hold back anymore?
He had always felt that Jiang Moyan's demeanor was off, so different from the arrogance he displayed when he first entered the military camp. Moreover, the other party had later quietly sold his information to Xun Daoren...
Li Zhu had been closely monitoring Jiang Moyan since that time, and he even thought that the other party might be in contact with Shi Chonggui...
To his utter surprise, the Jiang family had the audacity to establish contact with the Liao Kingdom…
It now seems that both the Liao Kingdom and the Jiang family are forces eager to kill him, especially the Jiang family, who are sparing no effort to trip him up!
Li Zhu left the central command tent and quietly approached Jiang Moyan's tent not far away...
At this moment, there was another person dressed in Liao clothing in the tent, clearly someone who had come to find Jiang Moyan…
"Young Master Jiang, how have you been?"
Hearing someone speak to him, Jiang Moyan, who was making a soccer ball, finally looked up at the person. Upon recognizing who it was, Jiang Moyan couldn't help but say angrily...
"Xiao Qianyuan, what brings you here? Didn't I tell you not to contact me easily?"
Xiao Qianyuan then said seriously.
"Young Master Jiang, my Liao Crown Prince is currently besieged in Yunzhou City. Do you think this matter is not worth me contacting you?"
Hearing Xiao Qianyuan's words, Jiang Moyan felt helpless, but he still said angrily.
"Coming to me would be too easy for you to expose yourself. I'm already under Li Zhu's surveillance. Last time I informed the Heavenly Dao Alliance of his information, but after he repelled the enemy, he ignored me completely. I think he's definitely playing the long game. Coming to me now is very likely like walking into the lion's den..."
Hearing Jiang Moyan's words, Xiao Qianyuan realized the seriousness of the problem. He couldn't help but look around before speaking.
"I sneaked in without alerting anyone..."
"At their level of strength, do you think they would need to reveal themselves to discover you?"
Jiang Moyan said irritably!
Xiao Qianyuan's expression was also grave. He knew the other party was telling the truth, but he still spoke confidently.
“I don’t think even a master could monitor the entire military camp indefinitely. I had already lingered in the camp for half an hour before coming here. If I had been discovered during that time, I would have been arrested as a spy long ago. Since I’m unharmed, it means the real masters in the camp are resting. There’s no need to worry too much…”
Jiang Moyan thought about it and realized it was indeed true. After the assassination attempt in the central command tent, he had been living on thin ice. Perhaps he was being overly paranoid...
"Alright, maybe what you're saying is true, but you'd better hurry up and tell me your purpose..."
Jiang Moyan didn't want to take any risks, so he still wanted the other person to leave as soon as possible. He only felt safe when he was alone...
"I came here on the orders of the Crown Prince and the Princess. I made a deal with Grand Tutor Jiang in Luoyang to find a way to bury Li Zhu in the north, and I think now is the best opportunity..."
Hearing Xiao Qianyuan's words, Jiang Moyan stared at him in shock, as if he were a madman...
"You missed such a good opportunity to assassinate him in the central command tent last time. Now that his strength is said to have improved, do you think you can kill him here?"
Last time, they mobilized the Liao Kingdom's top expert, Monk Duobao, along with numerous elite warriors, four top experts from the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and even people from Miao territory, yet they still couldn't kill Li Zhu. This is the source of Jiang Moyan's fear. He even regrets coming to Li Zhu's camp now; it's like playing jump rope in front of the King of Hell...
"Young Master Jiang clearly doesn't understand warfare. Assassination and actual combat are fundamentally different. When both sides send tens of thousands of people to fight, it's not something that can be won by just a few experts. Even if the soldiers stand there and let you hack them down, they'll all be exhausted by the time you've finished. A battle involving tens of thousands of people depends on momentum, tactics, and many other factors. There are simply too many factors that can influence the outcome, so the odds of winning this time are definitely much higher than last time..."
Upon hearing Xiao Qianyuan's words, Jiang Moyan fell silent for a moment. He knew what the other party said was true, but he still had some concerns. The main reason was that the shadow cast by Li Zhu was too deep, making him afraid to easily provoke Li Zhu's wrath...
What are your plans?
Jiang Moyan couldn't help but ask. He had been sent by his grandfather to cause trouble and ruin Li Zhu's hopes of victory. So far, he hadn't accomplished a single thing, and instead, Li Zhu's military achievements had increased. Just thinking about his grandfather's reaction when he returned sent chills down his spine.
Therefore, he now feels that if the Liao people have any good ideas, he might as well cooperate...
"Find a way to make the main force retreat ten miles, leaving enough space for our Liao army. Our Liao army is renowned for its cavalry. When the two armies face each other, our Liao cavalry will surely be able to crush Li Zhu's soldiers..."
Xiao Qianyuan revealed his plan, a smug look in his eyes, clearly indicating that he also believed the plan was absolutely foolproof…
How confident are you?
Jiang Moyan asked in a deep voice; this was the question he was truly concerned about…
"Our Liao Kingdom has 50,000 cavalrymen in Yunzhou City, while Li Zhu only has 20,000 cavalrymen, the rest are infantry. What do you think our chances of winning are?"
After Xiao Qianyuan finished explaining the troop strength to Jiang Moyan, he looked at him and asked a question in return!
After careful consideration, Jiang Moyan decided that this was feasible, and with a determined effort, he said...
"Okay, I'll do it..."
Xiao Qianyuan, standing beside her, nodded. Just as Princess Yanyan had predicted, the Jiang family wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by...
"Very well, our Liao army awaits Young Master Jiang's good news..."
Xiao Qianyuan said with a smile, and then the two made a tacit agreement before Xiao Qianyuan took his leave...
Hidden in the shadows, Li Zhu quietly observed everything, making no move to expose their plan…
Instead, it was the Marquis who was standing beside Li Zhu who couldn't help but speak up.
"Your Highness, should I arrest him?"
Why were they arrested?
Li Zhu looked at the Marquis and asked, puzzled, with a meaningful smile on his face...
"This guy blatantly betrayed His Highness, shouldn't he be arrested?"
The Marquis asked, puzzled.
"What a fine carrier pigeon! How can it deliver messages if we capture it? Sometimes, having an enemy around isn't such a bad thing..."
Li Zhu stroked his chin and said!
