Before the Jin soldier came close, a group of soldiers swarmed in and surrounded the man and horse in an instant.

The Jin soldier was shocked by this scene and quickly tightened the reins of his horse, jumped off his horse, and shouted anxiously to the crowd: "I have important news to report to the general!"

Just as everyone was about to further question him about his origins, a battalion guard came over, took one look at the Jin soldier, and announced to everyone, "He's one of us."

Then he personally led the man to the side of the field.

Upon seeing Tian Ye, the Jin soldier reported anxiously: "General, the Shura Team and the personal guard battalion encountered obstacles when they attacked the Qinba tribe at night. They had a fierce battle with many martial artists of the Hongxing Army at the foot of the mountain. The action has been exposed!"

When Tian Ye heard the news, he couldn't help feeling a little bitter.

Tonight was the night he had planned to attack the Qinba tribe, but he never expected that the Hongxing Army would also choose this moment to carry out the assassination. Duan Tianyang and he had the same idea on this point.

After thinking for a while, he asked the Jin soldier: "What is the current battle situation?"

The Jin soldier replied: "Although the enemy army is small in number, each of them has profound cultivation and are all hidden warriors. Although our army is large, but... but we do not have an advantage on the battlefield, I am afraid it will be difficult to win."

Tian Ye pondered for a moment, then turned to the two lieutenant generals beside him and said, "You two should lead a battalion of brothers to meet up with the Shura Team and the Imperial Guard Battalion. Be sure to cover their safe withdrawal."

Since tonight's actions have been exposed, there is no point in continuing to fight. Tian Ye can only sigh silently in his heart.

Tian Ye and the remaining troops returned to the central army tent. He stopped and ordered the Jin soldiers beside him: "Stay outside the tent and beware of the enemy's attack."

The soldiers responded in unison: "Yes! General!" Then they surrounded the central military tent tightly to ensure safety.

Inside the tent, the bloodstains and corpses had already been cleaned up, and the atmosphere was solemn.

Tian Ye sat in the commander's seat with a solemn expression and a furrowed brow.

Wang Shen, who was sitting below, smiled and said, "General, in tomorrow's battle, our army will surely be able to defeat the Qinba tribe."

Tian Ye sighed deeply and said, "Duan Tianyang is more cunning than I expected. I'm worried that tomorrow's battle may not go smoothly."

Wang Shen said firmly: "Even if Duan Tianyang is cunning, the enemy has less than 2,000 troops and the supplies on the mountain have been exhausted. I firmly believe that our army will win."

Tian Ye frowned and said, "What I find difficult to understand is how the enemy assassins managed to enter our army camp quietly."

His eyes were as sharp as torches as he scanned the people present, and finally fixed his gaze on a lieutenant general.

The lieutenant shuddered and quickly replied: "General, I have deployed more than a hundred spies in the Qinba tribe. Once the enemy army comes down the mountain, they will definitely be discovered by our spies."

Tian Ye retorted seriously: "However, the enemy assassins not only came down the mountain, but also set up an ambush at the foot of the mountain to block the sneak attack by the Shura Team and the Royal Guard Camp. And your spies knew nothing about it!" His tone was full of dissatisfaction and questioning.

"Ah... this matter... I am also very confused!"

"Do you have any idea now?" Tian Ye asked calmly.

The lieutenant was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I am still thinking about it and have not yet come up with a clear answer."

Tian Ye's eyes were sharp: "If you just sit there and worry about it, you may not be able to see the truth of this matter for a long time. Why don't you go and investigate it yourself, maybe you can find something?"

Upon hearing this, the lieutenant general suddenly came to his senses and said, "Yes, I'll do it right away!" Before he finished speaking, he had already walked quickly out of the tent.

Looking at the general's departing back, Tian Ye shook his head helplessly, smiled bitterly and said to himself: "It's just a small Qinba tribe, but it's so difficult to conquer it. How can our Eighth Army keep its reputation!"

Although these words were spoken lightly, when they reached the ears of the generals present, they all blushed and felt ashamed.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the tent. Tian Ye frowned and asked sternly, "What happened outside?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged soldier ran into the tent in a panic, interrupted and saluted, saying: "General, there is a man outside the tent who claims to be a messenger, but we don't know him, so we dare not let him in without permission."

Tian Ye recognized that this person was the middle-aged soldier who had spoken so much before, and smiled faintly: "Inside and outside the military tent here, there are all warriors of my Eighth Legion. How could an assassin dare to come here? Bring him in."

The middle-aged soldier responded and quickly turned and left.

After a while, he brought back a young soldier, who was sweating and panting. He interrupted Tian Ye and reported: "General, I am here on the orders of General Liu Tian to report to you. While covering the retreat of the Shura Team and the Imperial Guard Battalion, several hidden warriors of the enemy army chased into the forest and their whereabouts are still unknown. General Liu Tian was afraid that they would be detrimental to our army, so he sent me back to the camp first to report this to you!"

Tian Ye's eyes swept over the soldier who reported the news in front of him, carefully examining every detail. He asked calmly, "Have the Shura Team and the Imperial Guard Battalion been evacuated safely?"

"That's right, General. The Shura Team and the Royal Guards are currently hunting down the enemy in the forest."

Tian Ye cast an inquiring look at the middle-aged soldier and asked calmly, "Do you know this man?"

The middle-aged soldier immediately shook his head firmly in denial: "I have never seen this person before."

The soldier who reported the news hurriedly explained: "General, I was indeed ordered by General Liu Tian to come here to report..." However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Tian Ye.

Tian Ye turned to the middle-aged soldier and gave a decisive order: "Detain him first and wait for General Liu to return before identifying him."

The middle-aged soldier followed the order. He walked towards the soldier who reported the news and said expressionlessly, "Let's go."

However, just as his hand touched the shoulder of the soldier who reported the news, the other's shoulder suddenly shook and he screamed: "General, I am innocent..."

In the blink of an eye, the middle-aged soldier was shocked and flew backwards. He sat on the ground and looked at the other party in astonishment.

This scene shocked the generals present. How could an ordinary soldier have such amazing power?

The only possibility is that he is a martial artist, but how can a martial artist be an ordinary soldier?

Everyone's eyes were focused on the soldier. They drew their swords and shouted in unison: "There is an assassin!" Then, everyone rushed towards the soldier together.

At this moment, the soldier had a confused expression and was obviously shocked by his own performance.

At this moment, the middle-aged soldier on the ground suddenly jumped up and rushed out, but his target was not the soldier, but the field behind the case...

All the generals and officers present focused their attention on the soldier who reported the news, but no one paid attention to the middle-aged soldier who was ejected.

However, it was this neglected middle-aged soldier who unexpectedly launched an attack on the field...
