Combined with the intelligence from Yao Liuniang and the previous intelligence on Chen Bonian.

Chen Muyun expected that if this news was true, then the grain transport team sent by Chen Bonian should not be too large.

After all, he has not yet had a showdown with Chen Muyun, so concealing his identity should be his first choice.

At this point, Chen Muyun asked Xu Changgeng to prepare two groups of people.

Along the way is the team responsible for interception, considering the strength of Chen Bonian's men.

Therefore, in terms of manpower, we must bring as many as possible without exposing our whereabouts.

Currently, the only people in Liuli City with decent combat capabilities are the original Chen family and a few people from the outer sect.

For this reason, Xu Changgeng recruited two hundred disciples to deal with this operation.

At the same time, in order to save his own life at the critical moment, Chen Muyun also took Chen Gen with him to prevent any unexpected events.

The second route is the grain transport team led by Zhou Tianfang.

The reason for this consideration is to prevent the team from intercepting the grain from being responsible for transporting the grain. If the opponent suddenly comes back, the grain that was finally intercepted will become a burden.

Soon, the personnel were summoned by Xu Changgeng and gathered in the south direction of the city.

After seeing Chen Muyun arriving, Xu Changgeng hurriedly greeted him and asked excitedly: "Young Master, are you going to eliminate the remnants of the bandits in Shenhe?"

After hearing that he was leaving the city, Xu Changgeng, who had been relaxing for a while, was actually a little eager to give it a try.

Not only him, but the other disciples were also in high spirits.

Since the last battle to defend the city, these disciples of the Chen family seemed to have gained energy overnight.

In addition, during this period of time, I continued to practice and deal with city defense affairs, and every day was very fulfilling and meaningful.

Chen Muyun was very pleased to see their transformation, but due to confidentiality considerations, he did not tell everyone the true purpose of the trip.

I just told Xu Changgeng that I went out this time to train the team.

And Xu Changgeng was also a man who knew the rules. Seeing that Chen Muyun was unwilling to speak directly, he didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing that it was almost done, Chen Muyun ordered Zhou Tianfang on the side: "Everything will proceed according to the established plan."

"clear."

After explaining everything, Chen Muyun got on his horse, led his disciples, and walked out of Liuli City in a mighty manner!

…

Watao Village.

Early morning.

A grain transport team of more than 200 people raised by Chen Bonian came to the village.

Among this group of people, there were more than 80 Chen family disciples as guards, and the rest were carters and porters who came to work.

After arriving at the destination, a disciple who was assigned to take charge of this task quickly organized people to carry the food.

"Hurry, hurry up!"

"Hey, you guys, go and be on guard over there!"

Soon, the grain reserves in the village were found one after another, and it seemed that there was quite a lot of them!

To say that Shen He is indeed a profiteer, although his stronghold in Shangli Village was surrendered by Chen Muyun, there is still a lot of food in Watao Village.

Watching the bags of grain being carried onto the bullock carts.

Chen Lei, who was in charge of this mission, couldn't help but cursed in a low voice: "Humph, he is really a profiteer. In these years of war and chaos, people are starving to death, and he is actually hoarding food. He really deserves to be killed!"

Then, Chen Lei looked at the people working and said, "Your hands are numb, so don't dawdle."

Under his watchful eye, the porters did not dare to neglect their work.

Around noon, dozens of grains were packed.

After Chen Lei briefly bumped into the disciple in charge of guarding, he confirmed that no one had noticed.

He directed the driver to pull the ox cart and leave Watao Village.

Before coming, Chen Bonian had told him to try his best to avoid being discovered. For this reason, Chen Lei did not dare to slack off at all.

…

At the same time.

The team led by Chen Muyun is about to arrive at the boundaries of Watao Village.

The location of Watao Village is very special. There is only one road into the village, and it is extremely bumpy. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

That's why the Shen brothers chose this place as their base camp.

After understanding this, Chen Muyun did not rush to the village, but slowed down the team's progress.

Send out scouts to find out the news ahead!

At the same time, he also told Xu Changgeng the true purpose of his trip.

When he heard that he was going to fight against his disciples, Xu Changgeng was not too surprised.

Come to think of it, I have seen the fight between Chen Muyun and the Great Elder, so there is nothing strange about this matter now.

Not long after, several disciples in charge of the investigation brought back clues.

On the path just out of Watao Village, we saw a team of oxcarts pulling grain.

"Look, he is them."

At this time, Chen Muyun was able to determine the target.

"How many people are there across the way?"

After hearing this, the disciple in charge of the investigation replied: "A team of about two hundred people."

Chen Muyun was startled. He didn't expect so many people to come.

"Are they all disciples of the Chen family?"

"No, there are only about seventy or eighty disciples in the sect, and the rest are some coachmen and porters."

Chen Muyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If the people facing him were all disciples of the Chen family, it would probably be a bit difficult to solve the problem today.

"Sir, do you want to take action now?"

Xu Changgeng asked from the side.

Chen Muyun did not speak, but carefully looked at the surrounding terrain.

The path leading out of Watao Village winds and leads straight to the mountain col in the distance.

"How long does it take to get to the col?"

Xu Changgeng looked in the direction of Chen Muyun's finger and estimated that it would take an hour or two anyway.

"Well..." Chen Muyun nodded, "It is the only way to go to the ancestral land, so you can take your people there as quickly as possible, lie in wait, and wait for my signal!"

"Young Master, the other party only has seventy or eighty people. We have brought more than two hundred people. Why don't we just fight them head-on?"

Chen Muyun didn't say anything when he heard this, he just asked Xu Changgeng to do it.

In fact, he also wants to confront the other party, but he doesn't have the strength now.

The disciples that Chen Bonian took were all in the middle and upper levels of the clan. On the other hand, although there were some good ones on his side, their overall strength was not strong.

Moreover, once the war started, it would mean breaking up with Chen Bonian, and he didn't want to do that yet.

More than an hour later, Xu Changgeng led the people to the ambush location.

Chen Muyun and Chen Gen were waiting for each other's arrival in the col.

The weather in the mountains gets dark very early.

After the sun sets into the horizon, black becomes the main color here!

Some time passed.

There was a faint sound of wheels, and the bright torches would form a long and winding dragon not far away.

Chen Lei led several inner disciples and walked at the front of the bullock cart to clear the way.

"who!"
Chapter completed!
