Chapter 447 Master, Don't Force Me to Take Action 23
The man seemed very familiar with the patrol routes and shifts, moving effortlessly from one tent to the back of another.

He used the tents to hide from the patrolling soldiers and avoid being discovered. He passed through several tents and arrived at the edge of the military camp.

The military camp was also surrounded by fences, but compared to the fishing village, the fences here were very high and more densely and sturdily erected.

After the figure reached the edge of the fence, it jogged a short distance along the edge in one direction before stopping and crouching down.

He dug with his hands for a while at the junction of the fence and the ground, and soon dug out a small hole that a person could pass through.

The soil here is quite loose, and the part of the fence that was driven into the ground had already been cut off.

He looked around to make sure no one was watching before he crawled out of the hole.

Walk a little further ahead, and you'll find a small grove of trees.

After the man arrived in the woods, he whistled a very peculiar tune.

Before long, a small yellow bird came following the sound and flew to him.

He reached out his hand, and the bird landed on his arm.

He took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket and tied it to the bird's leg. Then he gently patted the bird's head and whispered something.

"Go."

As usual, after the bird flapped its wings and took off, he turned to leave.

After all, he slipped out quietly, so he didn't have much time.

However, before he could take two steps, he heard a short chirp from a bird, followed by the sound of wings flapping wildly, and finally a "thud" as it fell into the grass.

The man paused for a moment, his steps faltering, and he stopped in his tracks.

He quickly realized what was happening and prepared to run in the opposite direction of the camp.

escape!
This was the only thought in his mind right now.

If we don't run, we're doomed!
"Heh, you reacted quickly."

A woman's slightly mocking voice sounded behind him.

Although the sound wasn't loud, it echoed through the grove like a death knell.

Although he escaped very quickly, to those behind him, he was like a caged bird or the moon reflected in water—within reach.

Yao Zhan quickly caught up with the person in front and kicked him, hitting him squarely in the back.

The man let out a muffled groan, propelled forward by inertia, and fell face down in the grass, rolling several times before finally coming to a stop.

Unwilling to give up, he struggled to his feet, still wanting to escape.

But the people behind him won't give him that chance.

Liang Xiaorong rushed forward and angrily subdued the man on the ground.

Yu Muhuai strolled over leisurely, lit the tinderbox in his hand, and shone it on the face of the person on the ground.

This face is unremarkable, with a somewhat pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks; you could easily lose it in a crowd.

After seeing the person clearly by the firelight, Liang Xiaorong lowered his head and pondered for a while before remembering the other person's name.

"Hu Liang?"

After confirming it once again, Liang Xiaorong's expression immediately turned fierce.

He punched Hu Liang squarely in the head, yelling, "You bastard, you actually betrayed the motherland, betrayed the Liang family army, and betrayed me!"

How dare you face the people of Fenghuan Kingdom? How dare you face your ancestors? You beast!

As he spoke, Liang Xiaorong vented his anger.

He punched Hu Liang relentlessly, without a moment's pause, and soon Hu Liang was bruised and bleeding profusely.

Hu Liang below was yelling loudly, repeatedly begging for mercy.

He looked utterly pathetic and repulsive. Yao Zhan stepped forward, stopping Liang Xiaorong's actions and advising, "That's enough. We still need to interrogate him. Don't hurt him."

While Liang Xiaorong was beating someone up, Yu Muhuai walked to where the little bird had fallen and unfolded the crumpled paper from its leg.

Inside, there was a simplified diagram of the Mandarin Duck Formation, with Hu Liang's own brief notes on the formation written next to it.

On the battlefield, even a small variable can lead to a huge deviation in the outcome.

Moreover, the imperial court sent reinforcements, which also brought new battle formations.

As early as when Yu Muhuai explained the Mandarin Duck Formation in detail to Yao Zhan, she had already put forward her own guess.

That spy might spread the news about the Mandarin Duck Formation.

So Yao Zhan called Liang Xiaorong, and the three of them plotted this "late-night adultery catching" story.

Aside from the three of them, only a few of Yao Zhan's close confidants knew about this.

Yu Muhuai didn't trust any of the people around Liang Xiaorong.

Those trusted men hid in the shadows, observing the situation in the camp in groups. As soon as they spotted Hu Liang sneaking out, they immediately reported it.

Having intercepted the intelligence, Yu Muhuai tied the bird's feet with a thin rope and carried it with him.

Afterwards, Yao Zhan and Liang Xiaorong began to interrogate Hu Liang on the spot.

We can't bring him back to the military camp, otherwise the commotion will definitely wake up the sleeping soldiers at night.

Because they couldn't guarantee that there wasn't just one spy in Liang's army.

Then they began the interrogation on the spot.

People who are capable of being spies are unlikely to be tough.

Before Liang Xiaorong could throw another punch, Hu Liang confessed everything.

Seeing the traitor's sharp-tongued, monkey-faced, and cowardly appearance, Liang Xiaorong was so angry that he pounded the ground with his fist.

He roared in anguish, "It's because of you, you scoundrel, that I lost so many brothers!"

"General Liang, I was wrong, I was wrong, please spare my life."

Yu Muhuai stepped forward, stopped Liang Xiaorong, turned to look at Hu Liang, and said in a calm tone, "Continue."

For some reason, even though Liang Xiaorong beat Hu Liang's head into a pulp, Hu Liang only felt pain.

But being stared at by the thin man with a calm face and a tinderbox, he felt as if he were being harassed by a beast that was about to tear him apart.

Hu Liang dared not disobey, and he nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay. I'll talk, I'll talk."
There were other messengers in the army, but his rank was higher than mine.

Because he knows a lot of information that is only known to his superiors, and then he passes it on to me in advance.

"I'm in charge of regular messages, as well as coming over to bind the information and then sending it out."

"Who is that person?"

"I don't know, I've never met him. He's always the one who contacts me first; I can't reach him."

Liang Xiaorong's eyes widened; he didn't believe Hu Liang's nonsense at all, and he raised his fist, ready to punch him.

"Hey! No, General Liang, I really don't know, I really don't know! Ahh, help!"

Yu Muhuai reached out again to stop Liang Xiaorong's actions.

"In this situation, he couldn't possibly be lying; he must genuinely not know."

Although he knew he was probably telling the truth, Liang Xiaorong was still furious.

He gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Since you don't know anything, there's no point in keeping you around!"
