Whereabouts of the Mastermind is the 320th chapter of the Kingdom manga.
Summary[]
In the morning, the Coalition Army commanders and Shun Shin Kun meet at the HQ with Ka Rin arriving last, as she had to attend to "lady" stuff. She straightforwardly asks who was responsible for letting Ou Sen come back to Kankoku Pass' aid and defend Qin from her elite soldiers. Ordo responds that he is the one, and a potential fight between the generals ensues but Go Hou Mei brings things in order, Shun Shin Kun manages to calm them down and says that Ri Boku has taken 1000 elite soldiers from every state and has departed from the HQ. At Kankoku Pass, the Wei and Han forces were just shooting poison arrows and not making any attempts to conquer Kankoku Pass, while the other battlefields were peaceful. Meanwhile, a city close to Bu Pass, a gate on par with Kankoku pass, had been attacked. A messenger informs Shou Hei Kun of this, and soon another messenger comes in to inform everyone in the court that 4 more cities have fallen, and it's because of a detachment army led by Ri Boku.
