In the military camp on the western border of Wu State, the soldiers' slogans were heard, and soldiers wearing armor and holding weapons were seen training.

There was a guard post every five steps outside the tent and a patrol team every moment, all of which showed that this was an army with strict military discipline.

These soldiers, who have fought countless battles with General Bai, are always on alert to maintain the safety and order of the military camp.

In a brightly lit tent, a young man dressed as a soldier was tied to a stool with his hands behind his back, a piece of cloth stuffed in his mouth. He whimpered in pain, as if he was saying something.

Sitting on the main seat in the tent was a general in armor, about thirty years old, with tough features and a creepy murderous aura. He stared coldly at the tied young man below. He was General Bai Shu, who was feared by the enemy.

This man had been working in the military camp with General Bai Lao since he was a child. He was good at making plans and could flexibly change the formations on the battlefield to deal with the enemy's attacks. He had won five great victories with a smaller force and was deeply trusted by Emperor Wu.

General Bai wiped the sword in his hand and signaled his men with his eyes to remove the cloth from the captured man's mouth.

"Can your general find some smart people to spy on me? I've been caught time and time again, and I've been forced to wipe the bloody sword time and time again." General Bai seemed to be accustomed to the enemy army sending spies to spy on me. He said indifferently, his disdain evident in his words.

He walked down from the main seat and slowly walked towards the spy step by step. Did he think that he wouldn't be recognized after he put on the uniform of our camp?

Idiot, Chi Yan is just a tiny country and dares to call itself a country. Under the instigation of some scheming people in Yan State, it invades again and again without fear of death.

The sword slowly moved across the face of the bound man. The man swallowed his saliva, and his legs trembled more and more. He stared at the sword with wide eyes.

"Tell me, how do you want to die? Sacrifice your life for your country? That would be great for you, but who will take care of your family? Is it the pitiful consolation money the army will give you after your death? Before you die, think about whether that pitiful consolation money can be delivered to your family. Come, die." General Bai cut the rope with a sword, and then stuffed the sword into his hand.

The man was shaking all over, and his hand holding the sword was trembling. Seeing this, General Bai sneered and said, "With this kind of courage, you still want to be a spy? You are just a fool who is being used by others."

"I can give you a chance. If you tell me the purpose of your visit, I will let you go back." General Bai said in a cold tone.

The man hesitated for a moment, then pretended to be calm and said, "I won't betray our leader."

Clap, clap, clap. General Bai applauded his patriotic sentiments, and then said to his men, "Call the White Wolf."

"Yes." The soldier took the order and immediately ran out towards another tent.

After a while, a burly man walked into the tent and saluted General Bai, saying, "I, Bai Lang, pay my respects to you, General."

"Take him to play with the wolves." General Bai said impatiently.

When the Chiyan spy heard the word "wolf pack", he shouted, "I won't go, I won't go." The white wolf grabbed his neck and pulled him out, saying, "It's not up to you. In order to train these wild wolves, they haven't eaten for five days."

The man said in panic, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you." Bai Lang picked him up like a chicken and continued walking. "It's too late." The man shouted, "General Bai, I'll tell you."

Bai Lang looked at his cowardly look and laughed, "Grandpa will give you one more chance. If you miss a word, I have ways to punish you."

The man was thrown into the tent again. He knelt on the ground and said, "I heard that someone in your tent can make gunpowder. Our leader asked me to find out the truth."

"Oh, who told you that? I didn't know there was such a person in our tent. Come and tell me who he is." General Bai showed a surprised expression on his face.

The man on the ground trembled and stopped talking. General Bai laughed loudly, "How stupid. Someone, arrest the enemy's spy and keep him under guard."

Two soldiers came out from outside the tent and carried the man away.

Bai Lang bowed and left, and followed the spy to the cell. Seeing that he had been imprisoned, he whispered to the head guarding the cell, "Starve him for three to five days, don't kill him, find out the whole story, find an opportunity to deliberately let him go, remember to follow him all the way, and disguise yourself as him to get information about the enemy when you get there."

The guard Bai Bing smiled slyly and said, "Brother Wolf, please rest assured, General. I promise to complete the mission. Can you give me a drink when I come back? I just want that..."

"Look at what you have accomplished. We'll talk about it when you come back to claim the credit." White Wolf kicked him on the butt and left.

When he returned to the tent again, he saw the general and Master Fu discussing military affairs. Bai Lang saluted them and repeated his plan. The general waved his hand and asked him to leave. Bai Lang took the order and left the tent to continue supervising the training of the soldiers.

"Brother Fu, the news of our plan has been leaked before we even started. It seems there is a traitor in our camp." General Bai frowned.

Their gunpowder test had not yet been carried out, but the news had already spread. It can be seen that this person was hiding very deeply in the army and they were completely unaware of it.

"I will lead people to continue testing gunpowder. Brother Bai, thank you for your concern in investigating the spies." Fu Shichen said.

The two discussed for a while before Fu Shichen was ready to leave. Seeing him about to leave, General Bai stopped him and said gently, "Go see Bai Wei when you have time. She has been talking about you many times."

Fu Shichen paused, turned around, saluted and left.

He came to his tent, wrote a letter and called the guard at the door, saying, "Send this letter to Tongxin Hall as soon as possible. Do not write to him again unless it is absolutely necessary."

"Yes." The soldier stuffed the letter into his arms, took the water cup on the table and left. Although he disguised himself as someone else, his eyes showed that he was Fu Lei who was ordered to protect the eldest son.

Coming to the kitchen, Fu Lei pretended to squat in the toilet, walked to an empty place and called a white pigeon...

Fu Shiyan from Taohua Town was looking for someone to pull a cart of saltpeter to a house. The house was located at the northernmost part of Taohua Town and the closest place to the back mountain.

"Master, these saltpeter will be enough for a while. The market has been found and they are all waiting to use ice." Fu Yi reported on the achievements of the past few days.

"Be careful not to let the news leak out." The Wu State was established two years ago, and everything was waiting to be developed. The national treasury repeatedly allocated funds to help the people, promote agricultural labor, and promote processing. If anyone was found to have failed to hand this thing in, they would be killed.

Now is not the time to report to the court. I don’t know how my brother’s experiment is going.

"Don't worry, sir. I know what to do." If the young master can earn more money and the eldest young master can make achievements, the glory of the Prime Minister's Mansion will be restored one day, Fu Yi thought to himself.

"Master, you should go back. You haven't slept all night." Seeing that the sky was already slightly bright, Fu Yi advised.

"It's okay, let's go back together later." Fu Shiyan and his men carried the bags together.
