Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely Chapter 1505 - 472:

The news of the rebellion and revolt at the grain collecting area of Hekou Village just reached the military camp. Chu Qingwu did not inform him immediately and set out with the troops directly. By the time he sensed something was wrong from the main building and was ready to leave, he was ambushed by a Green-faced Heavenly King hidden in the camp, nearly losing his life.

If it hadn’t been for Chu Qingkai noticing in time and joining forces with him to drive the person away, the outcome would have been unimaginable.

"Even the Commander was killed, there is no way I can match this person. Sending Qingkai for reinforcements was the right move. Now, we can only rely on the army. The stationed troops in several nearby areas won’t arrive quickly, but the commanders and Xianyang-level experts can get here in the shortest time of a quarter of an hour, so it’s not too big an issue to hold out!"

Bang......

While Chen Yuanyan’s thoughts were racing in the sky above the army, Xia Hong pulled out a long staff, directly brushed aside Chu Qingwu’s body about three to four hundred meters away in the sky. He then turned his head to look at the Green-faced Heavenly King behind him, his eyes full of scrutiny.

"Thank you..."

The Green-faced Heavenly King looked at him, his eyes expressing gratitude but even more suspicion. He was about to speak, but just as he said the words "thank you," Xia Hong in front of him suddenly underwent some subtle changes. His pupils beneath the mask contracted sharply, and his body trembled violently.

If someone were to remove his mask, they would discover that his face was full of ecstatic joy and emotion beneath it. He immediately clasped his fists and bowed respectfully to Xia Hong, saying with extreme excitement: "Greetings... my lord!"

"You were sold out, did you know?"

The Green-faced person was stunned by these words and then quickly looked at Chen Yuanyan in the sky opposite, immediately realizing, and anger filled his eyes as he clasped his fists and bowed:

"My lord, I am Yao Character. Deputy Commander Chu Qingkai is not in the camp, I had made an agreement with the Yao Character Heavenly King, he was responsible for assassinating Chen Yuanyan, and I was to assist the rebel army here against Chu Qingwu. That dog must have seen the situation going bad and ran away first."

Yao Character, Yao Character Heavenly King, are divided according to the twelve Earthly Branches, so this Frost Ash Association has a total of twelve Heavenly Kings.

After Xia Hong quickly reacted, he shook his head and said: "It must be an issue with your intelligence; just now in the camp, besides Chen Yuanyan, there was another Xianyang-level powerhouse with a 9 Jun strength. He also had a 9 Jun strength, failed to assassinate Chen Yuanyan, and ran away immediately without even glancing at the battlefield here."

Xia Hong had seen the situation in the camp clearly from the shadows. When that person was about to escape after his failed assassination, he had already come to the battlefield here.

He was not thinking about the true identity of the person in front of him at the moment. Instead, he went over the relationship between Great Xia and Frost Ash in his mind and then solemnly asked, "Is your Little Dragon Head Ji Hong?"

Having operated for a long time in Chen Cang Yanling County with quite a network and understanding of the situation, while also being capable of bringing Xianyang-level reinforcements from Great Xia, Xia Hong really couldn’t think of anyone other than Ji Hong.

The Green-faced Heavenly King immediately nodded heavily. The two of them were surrounded by a dense energy of bones at the moment, so they were not afraid of being heard. After pondering for a moment, he took off his mask, revealing a somewhat handsome middle-aged face, and bowed to Xia Hong, "Subordinate Jiang Xinfan, greets the Lord!"

Jiang Xinfan!

Xia Hong’s expression showed a slight surprise. It’s not an exaggeration to say that when he saw the other party using the Feather Light Sword Technique and felt the Great Xia Sacred Pattern aura emanating from him, countless guesses emerged in his mind instantly.

But out of all those guesses, Jiang Xinfan was not one of them.

Town Chief of Jiangxia Town, Jiang Xinfan!

No way, is there such a big surprise waiting for him after being away for three years?

Upon realizing that Jiang Xinfan addressed him as the Lord, Xia Hong’s brow slightly furrowed. After quickly reacting, his eyes were filled with delight and astonishment.

No, no, now is not the right time for explanations!

Xia Hong quickly cleared his mind and looked up to ask, "What is your purpose in cooperating with Frost Ash Association to instigate this uprising?"

Jiang Xinfan was initially surprised by Xia Hong’s question but quickly understood why Xia Hong asked upon reflection. His face immediately showed respect.

"The Lord probably just escaped from the Blood Miasma Plain, possibly running into this uprising by chance, yet you quickly realized we have ulterior motives for the uprising. No wonder, after three years, with no news, the Minister, the Director, and everyone in Great Xia remains so devotedly loyal. This is the Lord..."

Though amazed internally, Jiang Xinfan also knew the urgency of the situation. He quickly clasped his hands to explain to Xia Hong: "The Lord has perceptive insight, I am impressed. This uprising is a task given to Ji Hong by the main base of Frost Ash Association, according to messages from the main base. A small group among Chen Cang’s high-level officials intends to emulate Wei Bo’s reforms and is earnestly persuading the Landgrave to lower the requirements for entering civilian status, reduce the tax rates for those with Slave Status, and subsequently cut the number of Slave Villages in the entire Chen Cang territory by half.

The main base unanimously believes this is a move to destroy from the base up. If Chen Cang successfully advances with the reforms, it will definitely undermine the foundation of Frost Ash Association, hence the task for this uprising was collectively given to the Little Dragon Head..."

Being someone who served as a Town Chief is indeed different, explaining the motivation and purpose of this uprising in just a few words.

After listening, Xia Hong thought for only a few moments and instantly understood, his expression became wonderfully diverse.

He did not understand how emulating Wei Bo’s reforms worked, but the few reform measures Jiang Xinfan mentioned were immediately clear to him. Moreover, he quickly realized that these measures would not only benefit Chen Cang’s future development but also significantly impact Frost Ash Association’s survival space.
