110 Killing Enemies With Mulled Wine (1)
They turned around and looked at Jiang Ming. One of them glanced at the three glasses of Brick on his table and knew that he was a tough guy. He smiled politely and said, “What’s wrong? Do you know General Guan?”
Jiang Ming shook his head. “No, I don’t. I just heard what you said. I think he’s a hero.”
“Hahaha, of course, General Guan Feng is a hero!”
The man laughed. “It’s said that he used to be a hunter in Great Cloud City. Later, he joined the Flying Cloud Castle when it was still weak. Step by step, he has made it to where he is today. He has won countless battles, but no one has offended him wherever he goes. The Black Tiger Army he leads is also quite famous!”
Jiang Ming asked, “How can such a brave general be used as bait?”
A martial artist sighed, “I’ve heard that the situation was constantly changing at that time. The Flying Cloud Castle made a prompt decision and sent the only army that was resting—the Black Tiger Army—to move out quickly. Not only was the Qingxuan Army deceived, but I also heard that the Black Tiger Army themselves were deceived. Now that I think about it, if it weren’t for the elites of the Black Tiger Army as bait, they wouldn’t have been able to fool the soldiers of the Qingxuan Army. The soldiers were also the elite troops of the Qingxuan Army. Now that they are completely gone, I’m afraid that the Qingxuan Army has suffered a great loss, which may affect the direction of the war in the future! However, it’s a pity that the men sent by the Flying Cloud Castle are trapped in Ningzhou City. I’m afraid there’s no hope of survival.” The warrior shook his head and took a big gulp of wine.
“Thank you for the information!” Jiang Ming nodded, gave the rest of his wine to them, and then strode out of the bar.

Outside of Snow Forest City, Jiang Ming’s figure moved like a bolt of lightning, flying all the way to the south.
With his current strength and the occasional use of the Meridian Breaker, he made rapid progress.
“If I travel day and night, I will reach Ningzhou City in about three to five days. Don’t you die first!” Jiang Ming muttered.
“When I was learning martial arts in the Tiger Hunting Village, I told you I’d help you in the future if you needed. Master Guan, you shouldn’t be a part of this war!”
Jiang Ming muttered to himself, but his eyes were calm.
The moment he received the news, he made a decision.
He owed the Tiger Hunting Village a favor for giving him his foundation.
It was his turn to help them now.
Just because he was immortal did not mean he was heartless.
Jiang Ming sighed softly. His speed increased again, and he disappeared in a flash.

Five days later, he arrived at his destination.
Jiang Ming disguised himself as a white-haired beggar and walked slowly along the street.
Although the city was besieged by the Qingxuan Army, Jiang Ming sneaked in unnoticed.
The Black Tiger Army was busy defending the city and was short of manpower. They had no time to take care of beggars and refugees.
At this time, most of the young, fit men were being conscripted. Guan Feng was not a good person, or he would not have been able to sit in this position.
However, the Black Tiger Army was not terrible. Although they controlled the granary, they would give out porridge on the streets every day to help the people.
Jiang Ming joined the queue and went to get a bowl. He sat by the wall and had his porridge.
“Ningzhou City used to be an important town in the country of Yan. It is an important route to transport grain, so there should be no shortage of grain in the city. However, the army defending it is much smaller than the enemy!”
Jiang Ming looked in the direction of the city wall. There were traces of smoke and fire everywhere, and blood painted the wall red. It was obvious that the battle to defend the city had reached its peak.
“Let’s wait for a chance to attack.”
Jiang Ming was eating his porridge, his eyes calm.
He originally wanted to attack from the rear of the Qingxuan Army, but he felt a little stupid after thinking about it. That was an army with tens of thousands of soldiers. He would not be able to defeat them all.
Therefore, Jiang Ming sneaked into the city and waited for the right time. Not only did he want to kill them, but he also wanted to destroy the morale of the Qingxuan Army outside the city in one fell swoop. Once their morale was scattered, they would be helpless.
