Chapter 304: Delivering News: Someone is Finally Exposed

After the war broke out, Tang San wanted a quick victory, but the Two Great Empires did not think so.

Most of the time, the Two Great Empires were fully defending against the attacks of the Bala Kingdom; facing stubborn defenses and unable to capture it after a long siege, Tang San and his army could not achieve victory quickly.

In the constant cycle of attacking and retreating, the Two Great Empires only engaged in small-scale battles; their goal was to train soldiers, accumulate experience, and improve combat effectiveness.

Fight if they could win, retreat if they couldn't, and never get bogged down in a fight.

These small-scale battles made the soldiers of the Bala Kingdom army feel restless and distracted.

Originally surrounded by the Two Great Empires, their psychological state had already been affected, and now these frequent small-scale raids and harassment made them feel even more exhausted and irritable.

Therefore, the soldiers of the Bala Kingdom could neither eat well nor sleep well now.

They had to be vigilant at all times; as soon as they heard an order, they knew the Two Great Empires were raiding again, and they had to get up instantly to defend.

Tang San and the Elders were very anxious now.

For large-scale operations, the Two Great Empires only defended, and after retreating, the Two Great Empires kept using small units for raids and harassment.

This tactic made them feel tortured and unable to be at ease.

At first, Tang San tried to fight fire with fire, using the same method of small-unit raids, but his attempts were unsuccessful.

Their movements did not escape the eyes of the Two Great Empires' sentries; several small units were all discovered during raids and suffered devastating blows.

This made Tang San realize that this tactic was not suitable for them to use.

Large-scale operations had been launched three times, and they hadn't even broken through the enemy's first line of defense.

This made Tang San and the Elders feel deeply frustrated, and they began to consider whether they needed to change tactics and find new solutions.

Tang San realized that he must now find a way to tear open the Two Great Empires' encirclement of the Bala Kingdom in order to establish contact with the outside world.

He believed that if he could contact Oscar and Ma Hongjun's Gourmet Association, they would provide support without hesitation.

In this way, as long as there was a sufficient supply of materials, the Bala Kingdom would be able to withstand the siege of the Two Great Empires, thereby breaking their scheme.

The Two Great Empires' scheme would then collapse on its own.

The Two Great Empires surrounded but did not attack, partly to reduce casualties, and partly to use the situation in the Bala Kingdom to inspire their own people and boost their morale.

Long-term peace might not be a good thing for the development of an Empire.

Therefore, the current strategy of the Two Great Empires was mainly to train troops, and they were not in a hurry to achieve victory.

In the quiet atmosphere of the Bala Kingdom's council chamber, Tang San sat solemnly opposite the Elders.

A heavy tension permeated the air, as if foreshadowing the arrival of a storm.

At this decisive moment, no one dared to speak easily, and everyone present was on edge.

Tang San's gaze swept over everyone's faces, and he took a deep breath to steady his mind.

His gaze fell on a corner of the council chamber, where a map of the kingdom was placed.

Tang San's brows were tightly locked, and he pondered various possible plans in his heart.

At the same time, the Elders also began to discuss in low voices, their faces filled with worry.

Some glanced at Tang San, hoping he could propose a solution.

Suddenly, Tang San spoke.

"In the north of the kingdom, there is a great canyon, bottomless, a natural terrain that cuts us off from everything to the north."

His voice was calm and firm, every word clear and powerful, landing in everyone's heart and bringing a deep sense of oppression.

"It seems now that this great canyon might be our only way out."

"Send Flying Spirit Masters to scout the path and see the situation."

This was the only plan Tang San had reached after analysis.

Because of the great canyon, there might be no defenses there.

At this time, if the Flying Spirit Masters could break through from this great canyon, they could establish contact with the outside world.

Tang San actually had one final plan in his heart; if the Flying Spirit Masters' scouting mission could not succeed, then he, Tang San, would have to go out himself to break through the Two Great Empires' blockade of the sky.

Although the Two Great Empires also had tight defenses in the sky, how could they stop a god!

Breaking through such a line of defense was not a problem at all.

Previously, Tang San had prepared to rely on the strength of the Bala Kingdom and the Clear Sky Sect to break through the encirclement of the Two Great Empires, but now it seemed that it would be very difficult.

After receiving the order, a flight squad was quickly formed within the kingdom.

That night, taking advantage of the dim moonlight, they broke out toward the great canyon.

Sometimes Tang San regretted that he should have returned to the Clear Sky Sect a few years later, so that the Clear Sky Sect had become arrogant and directly captured a kingdom.

Once his Array Master reached level nine, he could easily set up a Teleportation Array, and the kingdom's crisis at this moment could be solved instantly.

In the military camp of the Heaven Dou Empire, Zhuqing and Xue Ke were leisurely drinking tea, not taking the Bala Kingdom seriously at all.

"Report!" A guard rushed over, his voice echoing in the air.

His eyes fell on the two Nuhuang, and then he stopped.

Xue Ke glanced at him; she saw that the guard seemed hesitant because of Zhuqing's presence. She frowned, then looked at the guard again, "Speak directly."

The guard was stunned, then quickly calmed down.

"Yes, the Bala Kingdom just sent out a flight squad, attempting to break out from the great canyon in the north of the kingdom. They have been intercepted by our people; they were all captured alive, and not one escaped."

The report of the news caused a ripple in the otherwise quiet military camp; Zhuqing raised an eyebrow, while Xue Ke remained expressionless.

"Understood, you may go!" Xue Ke waved her hand, signaling the guard to leave.

After replying to the guard, Xue Ke looked directly at Zhuqing and said, "It seems the Bala Kingdom can't hold on much longer and wants to break out quietly."

Zhuqing put down the teacup in her hand and looked deeply at Xue Ke, "It seems the Bala Kingdom has started to act."

Her voice was calm, yet no one could ignore the coldness contained within it.

Xue Ke nodded slowly, "It's quite interesting that they are attempting to break out with a flight squad."

Zhuqing stood up, walked to the map, and looked down at the location of the Bala Kingdom, "They chose to break out from the northern great canyon; that is quite a strategy."

Xue Ke walked over and looked at the map together with Zhuqing, "Our defensive line is set up in the eastern part of the Northern Grand Canyon; their breakout plan has been intercepted."

"Is this their final struggle?" Zhuqing whispered to herself.

Xue Ke glanced at her, "Whether it is a final struggle or not, we must make full preparations. Notify the frontline troops to strengthen the defense of the line."

Zhuqing looked at Xue Ke, a flash of determination in her eyes, "We must also strengthen the aerial defense, in case they send out flying squads again."

Xue Ke nodded slightly, "Correct, we cannot let them have any opportunity to exploit."

She looked at Zhuqing with a firm gaze.

"The Bala Kingdom has already made its final struggle; next, we will let them know how foolish it is to challenge our decision."

Suddenly, Zhuqing thought of something, pondered for a moment, and then raised a question: "If a kingdom is besieged, why is it that they are not thinking of a decisive battle with the enemy, but instead want to break out?"

"There is only one reason: they are expecting outside aid," Xue Ke replied.

Zhuqing shook her head in confusion, "I cannot imagine what force would choose to help the Bala Kingdom at this time."

Xue Ke also fell into deep thought; she also could not imagine which force would choose to aid the Clear Sky Sect at this very moment.

However, just as they were pondering without result, Xue Ke proposed a bold plan.

"I cannot think of it either; rather than wasting effort guessing, it is better to let them pass the message out and see who comes to help. It would be best if they all came, so we can catch them all in one net and save ourselves a lot of trouble."

Xue Ke instantly thought of a countermeasure: rather than letting the forces that would help the Clear Sky Sect hide, it is better to wait for them to expose themselves voluntarily.

"That works, it is a good plan. Then let's do this: have Spirit Power Spirit Masters go over, erase the memories of the flying squad, and let them go out to see who they are intending to notify. Then, by following the vine to find the melon, we can uncover these hidden forces."

Zhuqing pondered for a moment and deemed this a feasible method; after all, letting them expose themselves is much easier than looking for them one by one.

The next day, under the morning sun, Oscar received a secret letter sent by the Gourmet Association.

He carefully opened the letter paper and found that only a few sentences were written on it.

The letter stated that the Bala Kingdom now needed a large amount of supplies and hoped that some could be provided as soon as possible.

The letter also mentioned an important piece of information: if this letter is seen, it proves that the Two Great Empires have no defenses at the Northern Grand Canyon of the Bala Kingdom, and one can enter the Bala Kingdom through there.

The letter did not mention anyone's name, so even if it were intercepted by the Two Great Empires, they would not know who the Bala Kingdom was notifying.

The Gourmet Appreciation Association usually collects ingredients, so their reserve of supplies is also quite sufficient.

The next day, after Oscar and Ma Hongjun discussed it, they decided to help Tang San.

The next night, a Flying Spirit Master dressed in black quietly snuck into the Bala Kingdom through the Northern Grand Canyon.

How could this Flying Spirit Master in black possibly evade the sentries of the Two Great Empires?

It was just that there were orders from above: once discovered, do not capture, let them pass directly, and then report immediately.

That night, the black-clad Spirit Master appeared before Tang San; fortunately, Tang San was alone, so it did not cause any panic.

After seeing Tang San, the black-clad Spirit Master took one hundred Storage Soul Guidance Rings from his person and placed them neatly on the table.

He said in a hurried tone: "Time is tight; we dare not collect supplies openly, but the supplies inside are enough for the Bala Kingdom to use for a year."

He paused for a moment and then continued: "If the Bala Kingdom can hold out through this year, we will send a second batch of supplies."

"Two weeks from now, the Light God Sect believers will organize and attack from the outside; I hope the Bala Kingdom will also launch an attack from the inside at that time."

"At that time, working from both inside and outside, we will tear a hole in the encirclement of the Two Great Empires."

"This is the message the superior asked me to convey. These storage rings are all level-nine Soul Guidance Devices and need to be brought back; please arrange it."

After the black-clad Spirit Master finished this sentence, he stopped speaking, as if he had turned into a robot, responsible only for conveying information.

After hearing this, Tang San took the rings and left directly.

He arrived at the logistics reserve warehouse, released the supplies from all the rings, had someone notify the Elders of the Clear Sky Sect, and then returned to his own residence.

The black-clad Spirit Master was still waiting for Tang San in the same spot; after Tang San handed the rings to the black-clad Spirit Master, he asked him to pass on a message that he would proceed according to the plan on his side.

After Tang San finished speaking, the black-clad Spirit Master disappeared into the night.

When the Elders heard that Tang San had filled the warehouse with supplies, they all ran to the scene to see, one by one, in excitement.

Until they saw that it was full of supplies, the Elders were instantly moved to tears.

These supplies not only ensured that the kingdom's internal economic system would not collapse, but more importantly, they provided the Bala Kingdom with the ability to engage in a protracted war against the Two Great Empires.

This meant that no matter how the war developed, the Bala Kingdom would be able to hold on and have enough resources to support its own fighting.

At the same time, Zhuqing and Xue Ke also received news that a Spirit Master had secretly snuck into the Bala Kingdom.

Through previous surveillance, after the flying squad went out, they just wandered around, eating and drinking everywhere, and then went back.

Now that a Spirit Master has snuck into the Bala Kingdom, it proves that these Flying Spirit Masters have already sent the message out.

"Organize everything that happened after the flying squad went out, do not miss a single detail, and then present it."

Nuhuang Xue Ke felt that it must have been in a place no one noticed that they passed the message out.

Therefore, she needed to see the entire itinerary of those flying Spirit Master squads.

Soon the data was presented; there were seven people in the flying Spirit Master squad, and after they went out, they dispersed.

Each person went to a city, and then they just wandered around in the city, eating and drinking.

Xue Ke finished looking at the movements of all seven people and did not see anything unusual.

At this time, Zhuqing walked over and read through the data of all seven Flying Spirit Masters.

Then, on the table, she spread out all the records of the seven Flying Spirit Masters' movements.

"Xue Ke, I have discovered the problem; although all seven people were wandering around, there is one place that all seven of them went to."

Hearing Zhuqing's words, Xue Ke's eyes lit up.

"The restaurant of the Gourmet Appreciation Association."

Xue Ke said loudly and happily.

"That's it; the founders of the Gourmet Association are Oscar and Ma Hongjun, and they are friends with Tang San."

When Zhu Zhuqing said this, a hint of ruthlessness leaked into her eyes.

This reminded her of the incident at Shrek Academy.

The relationship between Tang San, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun was also established at Shrek Academy.

The reason Oscar and Ma Hongjun are supporting the Bala Kingdom now is certainly not because of the Clear Sky Sect; that indicates one thing: Tang San is currently in the Bala Kingdom.

Tang San, it really has been a long time!
