I saw you cooking in the wooden hut, I wished I could do something for you. But my leg wouldn't allow it back then. Now, although my leg hasn't fully recovered, I can at least squat down and help you...At this moment, the air in the council tent of Beijang Camp was thick with silence, so heavy it felt like ice.

After a moment of silence, Feng Ming spoke with a grave expression, "A Tang, I suspect this is the work of Bai Guang Palace."

An Xuetang nodded slightly, "It's highly likely they are the ones who bought those sulfur, but what matters is that without sulfur, we can't continue to make the explosive packs."

In the midst of their conversation, An Xue Tang stood up. She paced restlessly around the room, visibly agitated.

She frowned, and everyone knew she was deep in thought, so no one dared to interrupt her at the moment.

After letting herself calm down for a bit, An Xue Tang suddenly raised her head and looked at Feng Ming with a furrowed brow.

"Brother, we must immediately order the brothers in Xuntang Valley to stop searching for raw materials. As for Ding Hua, there's a high probability he's also been targeted, so we need to halt our search for other raw materials."

Regardless of who bought the sulfur, now they know there is sulfur in the explosives pack. If they find those essential ingredients in the explosives pack again, it will be too detrimental to us.

An Xue Tang wasn't quite confident enough to arrogantly assume that only she had the ability to make these explosive packages.

She had to admit, there were too many smart people in the world. If she could make a bomb, others certainly could too, especially those from Bai Guang Gong.

These people are already skilled in the use of poisons and medicines. They are so familiar with the ratios of ingredients that if they were to gather all the raw materials and conduct research, it is highly likely that they could formulate the proportions of materials found in explosives.

"Whoever discovered our need for sulfur, the war with Dayue has already made it clear to the world that the Northern Border Army possesses mysterious weapons. For a while, everyone will be watching us closely in the Northern Border."

They all want to know what secret weapons we in Beijiang possess. The more so, the more cautious we must be. For these past few months, neither those searching for Xintang Valley nor the Yun family army of Beijiang have been able to find the raw materials for explosives.

Everyone present agreed with An Xuetang's point. Right now, there must be many pairs of eyes watching them closely in the shadows. They should be more cautious in their actions at this time.

Feng Ming nodded in agreement with An Xue Tang's words, then turned to Fu'er:

"Immediately convey the Princess's order. From today onwards, all those responsible for gathering materials are to cease their activities, but they must remain on standby and await further instructions."

Fu'er nodded solemnly and clasped his hands together, saying, "Yes."

This matter is serious. After Fu'er hurriedly bid farewell to An Xuetang and the others, she turned and left to inform her brothers who were searching for materials from Tanggu to cease their search.

"Mother, how many explosives do we have left" Mo Junyi furrowed his brow. He had already planned to fight back to the capital and rescue his father and fifth uncle.

If they were missing the explosives, they wouldn't be able to break through. Even if they managed to barely make it back, the Northern Border Army would undoubtedly suffer heavy losses and countless casualties.

An Xuetang pursed her lips, remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Right now, we only have 98 explosives left in our camp. The road back to the capital is definitely not feasible."

Yun Yi also agreed with An Xue Tang's words, "Without a bomb pack, just our Bei Jiang army directly fighting back to the capital, this method really doesn't work. However, Your Highness, our prince is now friendly with the Xuan and Chi countries. If we cooperate with these two countries, perhaps there is still a chance to capture the capital."

As soon as Yun Yi put forward this proposal, Mo Junyi rejected it. Mo Junyi spoke in a serious tone:

"This method simply won't work. Whether it's the Xuan country or the Chi country, they are just like the Lan country. They can ostensibly cooperate with us, but what then"

When our casualties are heavy, how many of these opportunistic nations will take advantage

"The Tianba Kingdom is a large piece of fat, everyone wants to take a bite. I'm afraid that at that time, it won't just be the Xuan, Chi, Lan, and Xiliang Kingdoms who come to share the spoils, other countries won't fall behind either."

It has to be said that Mo Junyi thinks far ahead. Through this incident of Lan Guo sending troops, Mo Junyi has indeed seen through it.

Among neighboring countries, there are no permanent enemies or permanent friends. As long as it comes to matters of interest, everyone will calculate against each other and choose the actions that maximize their own interests.ng with curious eyes, then glanced at the two women standing straight behind her.For some reason, she wasn't afraid of An Xuetang, but seeing the serious expressions on the two women behind her, she v...
