Chapter 781: Undercurrents in the Chiyu Camp (Let’s finish conquering Yanzhou as soon as possible, and then Qinglong Cunxiao will conquer Daqian!)

"Whether you trust the Yan Palace or not is none of your business. Your duty is to execute orders, not to question decisions. Do your own thing well. You don't need to worry about the rest."

"On the battlefield, the most taboo thing is to be suspicious. It will make you lose your judgment and even lose your life."

He turned to look at Li Zi, his eyes revealing a hint of displeasure. Every word was like a hammer hitting Li Zi's heart, making him shudder.

Li Zi's face instantly became embarrassed, and he smiled awkwardly, trying to cover up his gaffe with a smile.

However, under the lowered head, a sinister look flashed by, like a dark shadow in the night, fleeting, but enough to make people feel cold.

Lufa did not notice anything unusual about Li Zi. His attention was now focused on the dimly lit Yanwang City in the distance.

There, the outline of Prince Yan's Palace was looming. Didn't he know that cooperating with Prince Yan's Palace was a risk?

But there is no way. Now the Daqian Dynasty is in chaos and manpower is needed everywhere.

The hundreds of thousands of rebel-suppressing troops in Yanzhou can no longer continue to waste time fighting with the Chiyu Army in Yanzhou!

The Chiyu Army, backed by Yanzhou, can hold on for the time being. What's more, there are aristocratic families headed by the Yuan family who are constantly transfusing blood to the Chiyu Army. There will be absolutely no problem in the short term.

But these hundreds of thousands of troops to suppress the rebellion, or the Daqian Dynasty behind them, can no longer hold on!
They could only find a way to resolve the war in Yanzhou as soon as possible, and it happened that Shi Fuyan came to their door at this time, which undoubtedly provided them with an opportunity to break the current deadlock.

Regardless of whether this is a trap or not, they have to take the risk as they can no longer delay.

"Ma Qingshan, Ma Kuohai, the two of you will be responsible for scouting the enemy situation around Yanwang City and ensuring that our actions are foolproof."

Lu Fa gave the order in a deep voice. Ma Qingshan and Ma Kuohai behind him looked at each other and then followed his orders. The two red figures quickly blended into the night.

"Ke Sheng, you and I will work together to develop a detailed action plan based on the intelligence provided by the Xuan Jing Division."

"We must ensure that once the operation begins, we can capture Yanwang City at the fastest speed and with the lowest cost, and then quickly control the Chiyu Army remaining in Yanwang City."

Lufa continued, Guang turned to Ke Sheng.

Ke Sheng nodded and a confident smile appeared on his face.

For Ke Sheng, although Lu Fa appears to be stern on the outside, he is actually very delicate on the inside and has unique insights into strategy and tactics. Fighting alongside such a general makes Ke Sheng, who has always been indecisive, feel extremely reassured.

As time passed, the night gradually deepened, but in the woods outside Yanwang City, there was a tense atmosphere.

As the soul of this army, Lufa is also quietly waiting for the moment that will decide his fate.

Finally, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night, and a spy dressed in the uniform of the Xuan Jing Division came rushing in, holding a secret letter in his hand.

Lufa took the secret letter, read it quickly, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, then he looked up in the direction of Yanwang City, a ferocious murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"It's time to make this storm even more violent!"

Lufa muttered to himself, then waved his hand and gave the order to act.

Behind him, a large army wearing fiery red armor surged like a tide, approaching Yanwang City silently.

At the same time, on the other side, in the Chiyu Army camp, the night was as dark as ink, with twinkling stars, and the camp was silent.

However, beneath this silence, an undercurrent was surging, and a long-planned plan was quietly surging.

At present, due to the struggle for power between the Yanwang Mansion and the Yuan family and other aristocratic families, Shi Fuchen, who is now the nominal Yanwang, has long been secretly monitored by Yuan Shu and others. Therefore, now Shi Fuyan can only hide in a corner of the camp with a few trusted black-robed priests.

Not far away, there were soldiers of the Chiyu Army controlled by the Yuan family and other aristocratic families. They were either standing or sitting, guarding the entrance of the camp. They looked slack, and apparently did not notice the coming storm.

"Your Highness, everything is ready, just waiting for your signal."

A black-robed priest spoke softly. Although the voice was soft, with the help of his inner strength, it was clearly heard by Shi Fuyan.

"We must take this step steadily."

Shi Fuyan nodded slightly, his eyes piercing through the night, looking at the Chiyu Army camp not far away, he took a deep breath, and recited silently in his heart.

Then he slowly stood up, his black robe swaying gently in the wind, as if blending into the night.

He walked a few steps to a brighter torch and waved his hand gently, and several soldiers dressed in the uniforms of the Chiyu Army quickly came over.

These soldiers are a part of the Chiyu Army still controlled by Shi Fuyan and others from the Yan Palace. They are still loyal to the Yan Palace and are also the key pieces in this plan.

"Are you all ready?"

Shi Fuyan asked in a low voice, his eyes full of trust.

"Ready, Your Highness!"

The soldiers answered in unison that they had received favors from Prince Yan's Palace for generations, and now that Prince Yan's Palace was in trouble, some chose to stand by and watch, while naturally some chose to sacrifice their lives in return!

Shi Fuyan nodded. The next action must be cautious and swift.

"You guys should divide into several teams and go to those key locations respectively. According to the plan made before, trick the soldiers controlled by the Yuan family into leaving their posts temporarily."

Then he took a deep breath and began to arrange the tasks.

Upon hearing this, the soldiers did not say much and quickly dispersed, some acting alone and some in groups, silently blending into the night.

Shi Fuyan stayed where he was, watched them leave, sighed in his heart, and then waited quietly.

Not long after, a dozen soldiers dressed in the uniforms of the Red Imperial Army walked past a camp gate that was less guarded.

They looked natural, as if they were just on ordinary patrol.

However, when they approached the soldiers controlled by the Yuan family, they suddenly stopped.

"Hey, brothers, thank you for your hard work!"

The leading team leader greeted them warmly with a hint of cordiality in his tone.

"Brother, why are you still patrolling here so late?"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers controlled by the Yuan family looked up at their colleagues, with a hint of doubt in their eyes, and one of the soldiers spoke.

"Brothers, let me tell you a secret. I just received news from the main camp that a batch of important supplies will be delivered soon, and we need people here to help move them."

Upon hearing this, the team leader smiled mysteriously and spoke in a low voice.
