Su Bai personally led one hundred third-tier temple guards to outflank their main force from the rear.
As expected, he was spotted by a falcon circling overhead as soon as he left the valley.
At the same time.
Liu Yao also learned that Su Bai was leading a team to surround them from behind.
"He appeared behind us?"
"How is that possible!"
Seeing Liu Yao turn his gaze to him, the intelligence minister quickly explained, "I released all forty-five falcons to monitor the entire area. He must have appeared out of thin air!"
"The reality is, he not only appeared behind us, but he also led at least several hundred fully armed combat units!"
"You're telling me now that we didn't receive a single tip-off beforehand?!"
"Are you all just sitting around doing nothing?!"
Liu Yao gritted his teeth and angrily rebuked.
The intelligence minister stammered and couldn't think of a reason to answer.
Liu Yao clenched his fists, but he also knew that getting angry at him now would be of no use. "Immediately have the Black Iron and White Horse troops join us and break out in one fell swoop!"
"Break through?"
His order was immediately met with opposition from a significant portion of the team.
"President, there's no need to be nervous. Even if Bai Di had prepared an ambush, he only brought a few hundred men, while our troops this time number five thousand!"
“Falcon witnessed him transferring all the recruited troops.”
"They definitely won't be able to come back anytime soon."
"Could it be that our main force is here, yet we can't defeat his mere ambush force?!"
"In my opinion, it is the White Emperor who is arrogant, thinking that he can defeat us by himself. He has lost his accurate judgment of the situation, which is actually our best opportunity!"
There were many different opinions and suggestions from the crowd.
Now that things have come to this, no one wants to leave empty-handed at this critical juncture.
If it weren't for this operation, it would have been fine.
Now, more than 5,000 recruited troops have been mobilized overnight, and the morale, fighting spirit, and belief of all members have been raised to the peak.
Retreat without a fight at this point.
The impact on the overall atmosphere of the guild is quite severe.
As the ancients said: "One should strike with full force at the first drumbeat, but the momentum will wane at the second and be exhausted at the third."
After going through this a few times, they might as well not even bother fighting and just hand over the Nine Luminaries Star Palace to Su Bai!
"……well!"
Liu Yao closed his eyes tightly, his lips trembling; he understood this principle all too well.
But Su Bai dared to ambush them.
Why would we fight a battle we're not confident of winning?
