In a makeshift tent, the atmosphere was tranquil. Luofeng Tang, Ning Su, and Wang Lingzheng were gathered around a small table, discussing matters.

Ning Su said, "That night a heavy rain washed away the traces left by the perpetrators."

"It is difficult for our people to find any clues. The three nearby villages, with a population of over 200 people, were completely slaughtered. Truly ruthless and cruel!"

Wang Ling picked up the thread and said, "The possibility of the Nanman barbarian and the Black Lotus Cult is very high!"

Ning Su said, "The Nanman is the most suspect, but I personally don't think it's likely to be the Black Lotus Sect."

"Why?" Wang Ling asked.

Ning Su said, "The Black Lotus Sect has always been under the banner of Maitreya's rebirth and saving all sentient beings from suffering."

"Within the sect, they gathered the common people from the lower strata. They exploited their hatred to incite them and have them resist the soldiers."

They are too busy appeasing the common people to have time for large-scale village massacres. This is a bad deal, they wouldn't do it.

After listening to Ning Su's analysis, Wang Ling also felt it made sense.

“Then there's no need to guess, it must be the work of the barbarians.” Wang Ling said.

They were badly beaten in our previous encounters. Now they are coming after our people to vent their frustration!

Ning Su nodded.

He turned his gaze to Luo Fengtang beside him.

That night, it was just him and Wang Ling discussing the enemy situation. Luo Fengtang didn't say a word from beginning to end.

"Feng Tang, what are your thoughts on this matter? We'd like to hear your opinion."

"Ning Su Dao."

Wang Ling also turned his gaze to Luofeng Tang.

Luò Fēng Táng at this time raised his eyes and looked at the two brothers in front of him.

"I'm thinking, could it be that it wasn't the Black Lotus Cult or the barbarians who did this? Perhaps there's another party involved?" he said.

Hearing this, Ning Su straightened her posture: "Feng Tang brother, what do you mean? Did you think of something?"

Luo Fengtang frowned.

“There is no conclusive evidence to prove my guess, but,”

“While burying the bodies of the people these past few days, I observed the wounds on their bodies.”

From the perspective of the wound, it looks like it was pierced by a bayonet and a spear.

The shape of the wound, I'm familiar with it, like...

"What do you mean?" Ning Su asked.

Luo Fengtang looked at Wang Ling: "Do you remember when we were drafted into the Flying Tiger Army at the last meeting?"

Wang Ling nodded.

Luo Fengtang said, "I've paid attention to the weapon configurations of the Flying Tiger Army soldiers. The wounds inflicted by their knives and spears are shaped just like this!"

"Hisssss..."

Ning Su and Wang Ling both gasped when they heard this.

“If it was really done by the Flying Tiger Army, then it would be a great misfortune for my Great Qi. There are indeed worms in our army!” Ning Su clenched his fist and gritted his teeth.

Having learned many lessons from past experiences, Luofengtang is no longer the impulsive young boy he used to be.

He pondered for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Without concrete evidence, it's not right to accuse General Zhu."

But these people, they absolutely cannot be allowed to die in vain!

Ning Su said, "Just pass down the order, and let the brothers continue searching for evidence in the ruins tomorrow."

The net of heaven is vast, but it spares no one. I don't believe they can escape!

Luo Fengtang nodded.

"But there was still one pressing matter to attend to," he said.

The rain stopped and the sky cleared, the temperature soared.

"Those bodies buried in the ruins must be dug up and cremated as soon as possible, otherwise an epidemic will break out!"

"Fengtang brother is right. Wang brother, I trouble you to pass on this order." Ning Su said to Wang Ling.

Wang Ling got up and left the tent.

He had just stepped out when a scout rushed into the tent.

"To General Ning, urgent news has arrived from Taohua Zhuang, fifty miles outside the city."

A letter arrived in Ning Su's hands. After skimming through the contents, his face darkened considerably.

"What's the situation?" Luofeng Tang asked.

Ning Su said, "Ice-Pure County Princess went to the Taohua Temple fifty miles outside to make a wish and was besieged there by the barbarians. We must support them immediately."

"Ice-Pure County Princess?" Luo Fengtang was utterly baffled.

Ning Su dismissed the intelligence soldier, then explained to Luo Fengtang: “Xiu Shui Town belongs to Li City, which is a hundred miles east of here. The lord of Li City is called Luo Fei Xiong.”

“Back then, when I fought alongside the current emperor to conquer the world, I had made contributions that earned me a place among the imperial dragon's attendants. Later, in order to save the emperor, I even lost a leg.”

“The Emperor is deeply grateful for Luo Fei Xiong’s kindness and has bestowed upon him the title of King, the Southern King. He is also our Great Qi's only king from a different surname.”

After Luo Fei lost his leg, he requested leave from the Emperor, wishing to retire from military service and return to his homeland.

“Since Lu Fei-xiong’s ancestral home was here, the Emperor bestowed Litai City as his fiefdom.”

“This ice-cold county princess besieged by the barbarian tribe is the only legitimate daughter of the Southern King, Luo Fei Xiong!”

After hearing Ning Su's explanation, Luofengtang suddenly understood.

"How are you doing now?" he asked.

Ning Su looked embarrassed: "General Xiahou entrusted me with handling the village matter, and I'm currently too busy. However, Princess Bingqing also needs to go to the aid. Brother Feng Tang, why don't you..."

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

Luo Fengtang raised his hand, interrupting Ning Su's words.

"How many barbarians are there? Give me some troops, and I'll go to Peach Blossom Grove!"

>Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Ning Su was overjoyed and quickly told Luo Fengtang the contents of the intelligence report.

"This intel this time, is it prepped?"

Luo Fengtang asked.

Last time, when he led the Flying Tigers to attack Saizhuang, faulty intelligence caused half of his men to be lost!

Ning Su was taken aback and called the military intelligence soldier in to question him again.

After receiving the correct answer, Ning Su tossed a token to Luofeng Tang.

Luo Fengtang grabbed the helmet on the table, put on his token, and quickly left the tent.

He assembled a squad of horsemen, leaped onto his steed and was about to set off.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A group of people caught up with them from behind, and shouts could be heard.

"Luo Xiaozi, where are you going? Wait for us!"

Luo Fengtang turned around and saw that it was Bai Lao Wu and a group of uncles from the kitchen staff who had come.

One by one, they rode horses, but each held a firebrand in their hand.

Looking at the lineup, Luo Fengtang was speechless.

"Commander, I have to go on an urgent mission. You and the rest stay at camp and stand by!" he said.

Lao Wu shook his head like a rattle.

"That's out of the question, we were entrusted by Qinger to protect you."

"Where you go, we go. That's what the brothers say, right?" Lao Wu asked.

"Yes!" The cooks chorused in agreement.

Luo Fengtang blushed.

Didn't she even have a bodyguard escort her?

Uh...is he that fragile?

What a silly girl!

At the moment he was stunned, Bai Lao Wu and his group all mounted their horses and rushed to the front of the line.

Luo Fengtang stopped Bai Lao Wu and said, "Since you're going, I'll have someone replace your weapons..."

"Why go to all that trouble? We're the Kitchen Brigade! Our weapon is the fire poker!" Lao Wu waved his hand grandly, sounding very bold.

With legs clamped around the horse's belly, he dashed ahead.

After watching, remember: It's convenient to look again next time, or.
