"There is something unusual in this village."

Yang Xingwen had no spiritual sense and could not see the inside of the village, but Nan Xi had already seen it clearly.

"I see!"

Yang Xingwen seemed to have figured something out. No wonder the people from the Southern Wilderness had been so elusive during their recent attacks.

They sent out pursuers, but they were either annihilated or could not find anyone. It turned out that the problem was that they were hiding in a nearby village, so they were so familiar with the road conditions and had no loopholes in hiding.

"What about the villagers in the village?"

Nan Xi stared at Xiaocun without saying a word. She observed him for a long time before pulling Yang Xingwen back with her. She was furious and she was determined to make sure Nan You never dared to do it again.

After listening to the reports from the two men, Yang Hongfang quickly made a plan. He mobilized the troops and acted according to the plan.

Yang Hongfang directly sent out two teams, totaling 500 people, led by Yang Xingwen and Nan Xi, and went directly to the small village.

This time the target was clear and they went straight to the source. The small village was quickly surrounded and two people were captured.

There were two people, a man and a woman, and the woman was the one Nan Xi saw that day.

"Sir General, these two men were protected while retreating, and I captured them."

Yang Xingwen also saw that their identities were not simple, so he did not act rashly.

"How is the small village? Is it really as Nanxi said?"

Yang Xingwen lowered his head and his eyes gradually turned red.

"Yes, there were 300 people in the village, and not a single one survived. They were all killed."

After Yang Xingwen entered the village, he found that there were only about 200 people in the entire village. They were obviously trained by the army, and the original villagers had all been killed.

When they were found, they had already been dead for a long time.

Yang Hong was as calm as water. He stared at the two men below and wanted to order them to be executed immediately.

"Someone is coming..."

"Brother Yang, I think these two people have important identities, so let's find out for sure."

A middle-aged man with a white face and no beard walked in. He was the military governor Cao Rong, the emperor's brother-in-law, and the representative of the peace faction.

Yang Hongfang retracted the order with a very ugly look on his face.

The kneeling man thought he would die here today, but unexpectedly, there was a turn for the better. He shouted at the top of his voice.

"Let us go quickly, otherwise, my Nanyou Army will immediately crush Jiaguan and march straight to your imperial capital."

"Humph!"

The woman also raised her head proudly. She would not surrender.

Cao Rong seemed to know something, and he spoke to the two of them very kindly.

"Tell me your identities and I can save your lives."

He had just received news that the leader of this team was a member of the royal family of Nanyou Kingdom. If he could take over Nanyou Kingdom without bloodshed and achieve such a great feat, he believed that the Emperor's brother-in-law would definitely look at him with admiration.

The man and woman looked at each other and quickly came up with an idea.

"I am the fifth prince of the Nanyou Kingdom. Please release us quickly. I promise to make my father withdraw his troops."

No one present believed this. The army of Nanyou Kingdom had been pressing on the border for a month and had been sending cavalry to harass the border from time to time. It was impossible to withdraw.

Even if he was willing to withdraw his troops, Yang Hongfang would not let them leave easily.

Nan Xi was very interested in this woman. Girls of that era were very ladylike and female generals were very rare.

It was rare to see such a heroic woman, so she looked at her a few more times.

Seeing that he could not get any information from them, Yang Hong ordered him to be imprisoned.

The fifth prince thought that if he revealed his identity, these people would let him go, but he didn't expect Yang Hongfang to remain indifferent and directly ordered them to be taken away.

The fifth prince suddenly became anxious, he didn't want to be a prisoner.

"Let me go quickly, or my father will never let you go."

"idiot!"

The woman next to him couldn't stand it anymore and started cursing.

"Can't you just shut up? Bringing you out here is the worst decision I've ever made."

The fifth prince was stunned by the scolding. He didn't expect to be scolded so badly at this time.

The woman stared at Cao Rong with scorching eyes, without dodging. She knew that if she wanted to escape, the breakthrough would be with this person. She could sense Yang Hongfang's murderous intent towards her just now.

"What do you want?"

Cao Rong rolled his eyes. He thought that the man was the one in charge, but he was wrong. This woman was the unusual one.

"I guess your identity is not simple. Tell me and let me see if it is enough to negotiate with me."
