They were just excited and fantasized about the rewards they would receive after completing the mission.
In the future you will have endless wealth and glory.
But they didn't know that every action they took was being watched secretly.
No matter how well a caravan hides, it cannot escape detection by scouts.
It's just that the distance is quite far, and there is a telescope on the way.
They can see the caravan, but the caravan members cannot see them.
In a small forest a few hundred meters away, two men stood beside their horses, watching each other through binoculars.
"Yes, that's them! Many of them are barbarians. They ride horses all year round and walk with their legs turned outward.
We Dayuan people can’t pretend at all.”
"These people are so brave! They sneaked into our place to transport weapons. They are really not caring about their own lives."
"If Yunlu Pavilion wasn't a traitor, how could they have gotten in?
We should report to the boss immediately and deal with them before leaving the border.
There might be people from Yunlu Pavilion here, so we must be extra careful.
If things go wrong, it might capsize in a ditch, causing huge casualties."
"I know you're watching here. I'll inform the boss!"
Knowing that the opponent is very strong, I dare not be careless at all.
Lei Ying soon received the news reported by his subordinates.
"It's finally time to take action. This time we must succeed and not fail!
All of them must be killed, leaving no one behind."
Lei Zhan flexed his wrists, full of fighting spirit: "It's been a long time since I took action. I hope these people won't let me down."
Zhao Wudi was very cautious about this matter and said, "Leave the caravan to me, and you guys set up an ambush outside.
If anyone really escapes, I'll leave it to you to intercept him.
Never underestimate the strength of Yunlu Pavilion.
They are able to become the best sect in the world and have many peerless masters.
Even if you are besieged, you may still be able to escape.
We must block the news this time and absolutely not let anyone escape."
"No way, I finally got the chance to take action, and I can only watch?" Lei Zhan's face was full of disappointment.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Listen to General Zhao! We are not playing a game.
Failure to do so can lead to serious consequences.
His Highness is not here, and we cannot afford to make any mistakes."
Lei Ying scolded him.
"Okay, let's do as you say! I'll send someone to prepare it right away.
If anyone escapes, I will kill him myself."
Lei Zhan did not lose heart and looked for opportunities to do it himself.
Lei Ying's face was filled with helplessness. His brother was good in every way except that he was too warlike.
I was thinking that if all else failed, I could let him follow Zhao Wudi and lead the charge.
His personality and temper are really not suitable for intelligence work.
But leading troops into battle and charging into battle is too dangerous.
No matter how strong you are, you may still be defeated and killed by the enemy in the midst of thousands of troops.
Lei Ying didn't want him to take any risks, and he was very conflicted about this and couldn't make up his mind.
I was thinking about discussing it with Li Ye to see if I could get him a new job.
The fact that Shengye was thinking about fighting all day long was really giving him a headache.
Wait until dark and set off on warhorse.
First, get in front of the enemy caravan and set up an ambush.
Even if they have a huge advantage, they don't intend to confront the other party head-on.
Use your crossbow to kill the enemies first, and then deal with the ones that have escaped.
Not only can you catch the enemy off guard, but you can also reduce your own casualties.
The barbarians had no idea that they were surrounded.
Still continue on the road.
They specifically choose to enter and exit the border at night to avoid searches by the defending troops.
Moreover, there were disciples from Yunlu Pavilion gathering information and helping them to monitor the time of the garrison's search.
Find a gap and take the opportunity to escape.
"Everyone, hold on tight. We're not far from the border anymore. We'll be out in an hour at most."
"Don't worry, with Yunlu Pavilion helping us keep an eye on the garrison, they won't be able to find us at all."
"You're truly worthy of being Yunlu Pavilion. I didn't expect you guys would even be in the military.
The Dayuan Dynasty will be defeated by us sooner or later."
"I really hope this day will come sooner. Dayuan is not only a vast country, but also rich in resources and has a good climate.
If we lived in such a rich place, we would never have to suffer again."
The disciples of Yunlu Pavilion listened to the barbarians' excited discussion.
They didn't relax at all.
Always keep your ears open to listen to the movements around you, and never make any mistakes at the last moment.
If it was at that time, it would be fine, but the defenders were never taken seriously.
But they knew that the last weapons shipment had been looted.
If Li Ye's troops were stationed on the border.
Their defense was very tight, and Yunlu Pavilion couldn't get anyone in at all.
Even with the Crown Prince and the Third Prince's men, Li Ye was of course very strict in commanding his troops.
Not only the soldiers, but even the craftsmen who worked were required to sit together and supervise each other.
There is no way to get the news out.
They must be on guard against Li Ye sending people to attack their caravan.
Suddenly someone raised his eyebrows, as if he heard some noise.
It was at least dozens of meters away from them.
He quickly whispered, "Everyone stop immediately and be quiet."
The others didn't understand what was going on and all looked at him with puzzled expressions.
But they didn't ask, and followed orders to hold their breath and make as little noise as possible.
In an instant, the bustling caravan became extremely quiet.
At night, the only sound you could hear was the wind blowing, not even the sound of a bug.
"What's wrong? What did you find?" asked the junior brother next to him.
The Yunlu Pavilion disciples who had just given the warning were confused again, but when they listened carefully, they could hear nothing.
"Maybe I was too nervous and heard it wrong. It shouldn't be a big deal. Let's continue on our way."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Some people even took the initiative to comfort him: "Don't be nervous, we will soon reach our territory, and we have cavalry ahead to support us.
Even if we encounter the Dayuan cavalry, we can still take care of them."
"You're absolutely right. The Dayuan army doesn't dare to fight us head-on."
"Alright, everyone, stop talking! Don't worry about the horses' stamina, just rush out as fast as you can."
The leading disciple of Yunlu Pavilion always felt uneasy and very irritable.
It's as if something big is about to happen.
Urge everyone to hurry on their way.
The guy who was lying in ambush in front almost suffocated himself to death.
Just as the caravan was about to enter an ambush, it suddenly stopped unexpectedly.
I thought I was discovered by the other party.
Everyone covered their mouths and tried to breathe as slowly as possible.
I waited for a moment before I saw the other party continue forward.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He held the crossbow tightly, waiting to take action immediately upon hearing the order.
Some soldiers also held fire starters, and when the attack came, they would light the fire as quickly as possible, shoot rockets at the enemy, and illuminate the target.
This is the only way to accurately kill the enemy with the crossbow arrows.
