The empress disliked my achievements for overshadowing her own, so she turned her attention to the N

Jiang Zhe looked at the newcomer and slammed his fist on the table: "You are Fang He, the deputy general of Northern Wei?"

"General, I am Fang He, the deputy general of Northern Wei!"

"How dare you, Fang He, not kneel before me!" Jiang Zhe's expression changed as he questioned him.

Fang He didn't waste any time and immediately knelt down: "General, I have something important to report!"

"What business do you, a general from Northern Wei, have in my Great Qian? Could it be that you can't stay in Northern Wei and want to defect to my Great Qian?"

Jiang Zhe was even more puzzled.

He was just a military man and had no idea about the current situation in the Great Qian court.

Deep down, they still thought of the Great Qian Dynasty as the invincible entity it once was.

That's why I have such confidence.

Unexpectedly, his casual remark startled Fang He.

"How could the commander-in-chief know what a villain is thinking?"

Then, he took out a piece of parchment from his pocket and placed it respectfully on the table with both hands.

He stepped back to his original position, his face becoming even more obsequious: "General, this is a map of the Northern Wei army's camp. Is this a map of the Northern Wei's camp?"

Jiang Zhe looked suspicious.

"Are you kidding me? What's on the other side?"

With a skeptical mind, Jiang Zhe picked up the parchment and glanced at it briefly.

But they discovered that there were words written on the back of the parchment.

"General, the names of the generals and their ranks in the Northern Wei army are written on the back!"

Fang explained humbly, as if afraid the other party wouldn't understand.

Hearing Fang He's explanation, Jiang Zhe, being quite thick-skinned, didn't doubt it and accepted the parchment.

His eyes swept over Fang He, asking, "What do you hope to gain by joining my Great Qian?"

Fang He recalled the moment his younger brother died in front of him, and gritted his teeth.

"General, I don't want anything, I just want you to kill Chen Nan for me!"

Jiang Zhe said calmly, "That's easy. Chen Nan is just a scholar who can't even kill a chicken. As a fifth-rank martial artist, dealing with him is a piece of cake."

"Of course, if you can offer more, I don't mind letting you do it yourself after we capture Chen Nan."

Jiang Zhe did not ask what the conflict was between Fang He and Chen Nan.

He only cares about what he can get out of it.

As for how to capture Chen Nan, he didn't even consider it.

In his view, the Great Qian Dynasty had dispatched an army of 300,000 this time.

He learned from the parchment that the Great Qian Dynasty had a total of only 200,000 troops, with another 50,000 serving as the rear guard.

With 300,000 against 200,000, the advantage is mine!

He already sees Chen Nan as a caged bird, just waiting for him to take him away.

Fang He saw that Jiang Zhe not only agreed to kill Chen Nan for him, but also that he would do it himself if he was paid more.

His mind began to stir, and he knelt down again, saying, "General, I am also a deputy general in Northern Wei."

"There are still some valuable items in the house. As long as you can do it yourself, all those things will belong to the Commander!"

"I only hope that you will give me a chance to make a move!"

Upon hearing that there was indeed a benefit to be gained, Jiang Zhe's face lit up with a smile.

"Alright, alright, as long as you give me enough, I'll do anything for you, let alone kill Chen Nan, I'll even skin him alive."

After the two sides reached an agreement, Jiang Zhe waved his hand and said, "Someone, bring me a pot of fine wine. I want to drink with my brother!"

Before anyone could go out to get it, Fang He quickly waved his hand: "General, I am here on the job as a scout, so it is inconvenient for me to drink."

His eyes darted around a few times, then he suddenly smiled and said, "General, I have a good idea."

"Oh? Tell me?"

Out of curiosity, Jiang Zhe leaned forward slightly.

Fang He spoke up: "General, if you can give me a granary, I will volunteer to lead 10,000 troops to attack tonight."

"At that time, as long as the commander lays a trap here, we can succeed."

"If I ask the Northern Wei army for help, the commander-in-chief can wipe them all out in one fell swoop!"

"Moreover, the Northern Wei army's grain was stored in Sucheng."

"The garrison in Sucheng is only ten thousand strong. The commander-in-chief can take this opportunity to launch a fierce attack on Sucheng, destroy the Northern Wei granary, and occupy Sucheng."

"By then, the Northern Wei army will be unable to advance or retreat!"

"Whether it's Hongming or Chen Nan, their fate is still just a matter of the commander-in-chief's word."

Fang He explained in great detail, which actually made Jiang Zhe excited.

"Is the Hongming you're talking about the only female general among the four great generals?" Jiang Zhe asked with a lewd grin.

Fang He nodded firmly.

"Hehehe." Jiang Zhe chuckled lewdly, but still retained a sliver of rationality. "Let me consider this matter."

In the main tent of the Northern Wei, Fang He, who had not yet returned for a long time, stood watching.

Hongming paced back and forth anxiously.

Chen Nan, on the other hand, remained calm, his eyes still fixed on the map on the table.

Time passed, until noon.

The tent flap was suddenly flung open, and Fang He rushed into the tent, covered in dust and dirt.

As soon as he came in, he picked up the water bottle hanging nearby and drank it in big gulps.

Hongming asked urgently, "General Fang, where did you go to investigate? Why did you take so long?"

After finishing his water, Fang He, panting and beaming with joy, announced as if to claim credit: "General, we've found the granary of the Great Qian Dynasty!"

"What? You found the Great Qian's granary?"

Hongming was shocked, and even the usually calm Chen Nan suddenly stood up, looking at Fang He in disbelief.

They were all military commanders, so they naturally knew what it meant for the enemy to take control of the granary.

Moreover, for Chen Nan, being able to destroy Da Qian's granary in one fell swoop meant that he wouldn't have to deal with the 300,000-strong army.

This was exactly what he wanted.

Without Hongming urging him again, Fang He took out a piece of parchment and laid it on the table.

Chen Nan, Hongming, and Hongyao surrounded them at the same time.

Seeing this, Fang He sneered, the corners of his mouth turning up.

He concealed his facial expression, stepped forward, and pointed to a mountain valley three miles behind Lecheng on the map.

"General, this is a mountain valley called Leshan Valley!"

“There is a forest around Leshan’ao, and we have 50,000 cavalry under our command.”

"With just ten thousand men, I am certain that I can destroy the Great Qian granary tonight!"

Hongyao comforted him, "General Fang is already very tired from scouting the enemy's situation. Why don't you get some rest tonight?"

"Leave the task of destroying the granary to me!"

Upon hearing this, Fang He's expression changed, and he coldly asked, "What? Is General Hongyao trying to steal my credit?"

The air suddenly froze, and Hongming's gaze lingered on the two faces.

One was a hero who had just discovered the Daqian granary, and the other was his own retainer.

He couldn't help anyone, so he could only look to Chen Nan for help.

Chen Nan coughed twice: "General Hong, in my opinion, we should let General Fang lead the sneak attack this time!"

He didn't give a reason, but directly named Fang He.

Hongyao didn't say much, so he just nodded and smiled at Fang He: "In that case, General Fang will have to work hard tonight."

Only then did a smile return to Fang He's face: "General, this humble general will go down to reorganize the troops first!"

"I'll see General Fang off and wish him a resounding victory!"

Chen Nan stood up and personally escorted Fang He out of the main tent.

Hongming also sensed something was wrong, but he didn't say anything and quietly waited for Chen Nan to return.

Outside the tent, neither of them spoke. Chen Nan escorted Fang He several dozen steps outside the tent before returning.

Back in the main tent, seeing the two sitting in chairs, he asked, "What's wrong? Aren't you happy that Fang He is going to launch a sneak attack?"
