It turned out the man in black was a Scout, and he had gathered intelligence on a fortress to the west that guarded the farmlands.
In three days, Master Qi's bandit army would attack that fortress.
This was Lin Yuan City's most important stretch of farmland.
If it were captured and the grain shipments from other towns were cut off...
...then in the coming year, Lin Yuan City would inevitably face a severe famine!
Jiang Che frowned slightly. This bandit army was clearly no mere rabble; there was a high chance they would succeed in taking the fortress!
'No, I have to think of something.'
After thinking it over, Jiang Che came up with two options.
First, he could burn the camp's provisions, preventing them from attacking.
Second, he could secretly go and warn the fortress.
'No, I can't burn the provisions…'
Jiang Che rejected the first option.
Master Qi was no fool.
No matter how cleverly he pulled it off, the provisions had been perfectly fine.
