"Are you really that bold? It seems that our imperial city is really not peaceful."

The villagers were whispering to each other, their eyes filled with curiosity and worry.

On the battlefield, Wu Junyao pressed forward step by step, the long sword in his hand flashing with cold light. He completely gained the upper hand, and the enemy was beaten back step by step.

"Go quickly! As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood!" the enemy leader shouted anxiously, trying to save the situation.

"It's too late." Jiang Yanwan calmly blocked the way, her eyes as hard as a sword.

At this moment, a wounded enemy soldier couldn't help but groan, attracting Jiang Yanwan's attention. She was slightly distracted, and the enemy leader took the opportunity to break through from the side.

Wu Junyao was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He rushed forward and knocked the opponent to the ground with a powerful blow.

"This is your last chance, surrender or struggle?" He looked down at the leader on the ground.

The enemy leader had a complicated look in his eyes, and finally dropped his weapon helplessly: "We lost."

The soldiers and villagers who were watching breathed a sigh of relief, but not far away they could still see a few remnants of the army still resisting stubbornly.

"Deal with them!" Wu Junyao ordered in a deep voice.

The soldiers quickly surrounded and subdued all the enemies, and then they cheered and their morale was greatly boosted.

"General, we succeeded!" a soldier ran over excitedly to report.

"That's right, but we can't let our guard down." Wu Junyao nodded calmly and looked around, "Count the number of people and treat the wounded."

Jiang Yanwan walked up to him and whispered, "This action is just the beginning. Maybe the mastermind behind this has more tricks up his sleeve."

"Yes, but at least we gave them a head-on blow." Wu Junyao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a firm belief flashing in his eyes.

Not far away, some villagers whispered: "This general and girl are really amazing and courageous."

"Yes, if it weren't for them, this time it would have been really dangerous."

With their help, the frightened villagers began to slowly regain a sense of security.

However, on the other side, the mysterious figure showed a slightly grim smile in the shadows. "It seems that things are getting more interesting."

His attendant appeared beside him again and asked softly, "Sir, what should we do next?"

"Continue as planned." This 'Sir' said leisurely, as if he had foreseen everything.

At the same time, undercurrents were surging in the city, and it seemed that some huge conspiracy was brewing.

In the camp in the wilderness, Wu Junyao and Jiang Yanwan began to deploy the next plan. They knew that the real test had just begun.

As the two were discussing, an unexpected visitor came into their sight.

"It's you?" Jiang Yanwan looked up in surprise and saw Lu Wenjin standing in the center of the camp with a calm smile on his face.

"It seems that I came at the right time, right?" Lu Wenjin said, with an unknown light in his eyes.

"What are you doing here?" Wu Junyao frowned, obviously wary of this person who suddenly appeared.

"I have some information that may be helpful to you." Lu Wenjin replied calmly.

There was a tense atmosphere in the air, and no one knew what the purpose of this mysterious visitor was.

Jiang Yanwan and Wu Junyao looked at each other, and they both read the same determination and vigilance in each other's eyes.

"Okay, then please tell me why you are here." Wu Junyao spoke slowly, with a subtle challenge in his tone.

Lu Wenjin smiled but said nothing. He just took out a scroll from his bosom and gently spread it out in front of them. The scroll was painted with a detailed map and dense annotations, and it was obvious that a lot of effort had been put into it.

"This is the enemy's next move and the location of their strongholds." Lu Wenjin tapped several locations on the map with his fingers. "I believe this information can help you prepare in advance."

Jiang Yanwan frowned slightly, "Why are you helping us?"

Lu Wenjin smiled mysteriously, "I have my reasons, and it's also very interesting to watch you guys stir up trouble."

"This man is really hard to figure out." Jiang Yanwan whispered to Wu Junyao, and Wu Junyao just nodded thoughtfully, "No matter what, we can't believe every word he says. We must verify the authenticity of this information."

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the camp, and several soldiers came running to report: "General, there are a few people outside who claim to be villagers. They said they have important news to reveal."

"Another news?" Wu Junyao frowned slightly, "Please ask them to come in."

Several ragged villagers were brought into the tent, looking terrified. The leading strong man said, "General, things are not good. There are suddenly a group of strangers in our village. They claim to be exiles, but their behavior is suspicious and seems to be connected with the enemy nearby."

A woman nearby echoed, "Yes, they are trying to get information everywhere, and we dare not say much."

"Pretending to be an exile?" Jiang Yanwan said coldly, "It seems that the enemy is omnipresent."

Wu Junyao subconsciously glanced at Lu Wenjin, who shrugged his shoulders, seeming to care nothing about these things.

"Thank you for your report," Wu Junyao nodded and said to the soldiers, "Escort them back and strengthen patrols in the village."

The villagers nodded gratefully and left, but a hint of tension still lingered in the air.

"The enemy's methods are more complicated than we expected." Jiang Yanwan sighed.

"So we have to take the initiative." Wu Junyao said firmly, "We act according to the plan and don't give them any chance to take advantage of us."

At this moment, Lu Wenjin suddenly said, "I can help you get more inside information, but I need a small reward."

Jiang Yanwan asked vigilantly: "What do you want?"

"It's very simple," Lu Wenjin spread his hands, "I just need you to promise to help me complete a task at the appropriate time."

"What's the matter?" Wu Junyao asked.

Lu Wenjin did not answer directly. He showed a meaningful smile and said, "You will know when the time comes."

The two were silent for a while, with complicated expressions. In their hearts, their doubts about Lu Wenjin became more and more serious.

"Okay, we agree to your conditions." In the end, Wu Junyao decided to take advantage of Lu Wenjin's information advantage first.

"It's a pleasure working with you. I hope you won't regret this decision." Lu Wenjin smiled with satisfaction.

Outside the big tent, the night is getting darker. The soldiers are preparing for tomorrow's action. At the same time, the enemy's conspiracy is gradually unfolding in unknown corners.

"Is it really okay?" Jiang Yanwan asked again in a low voice.

"This is the only way for now." Wu Junyao replied, "We are already in the open, so we can only rely on the power in the dark to seek a breakthrough."

"I'm afraid he has other plans." Jiang Yanwan looked worriedly at Lu Wenjin's figure that was gradually disappearing into the night.
