"I never expected it to snow so heavily all of a sudden!" Fang Zhongda said with emotion.
"This celestial phenomenon must have been caused by a battle between powerful Heavenly Kings. It's truly breathtaking," Si Yuniang exclaimed.
"This snow is wonderful," Chen Feng said with a smile.
"Brother Dongfeng, what do you mean by that?" Si Yuniang asked, knowing that Chen Feng wouldn't speak carelessly.
"Our human forces have built outposts to protect them from the cold, but the werewolf forces over there only have rudimentary dwellings. The severe cold weather will affect them much more than it will affect us," Chen Feng said, pointing to the distant horizon.
"You mean the heavy snow is bad for the werewolf army, and they'll launch a night attack tonight?" Si Yuniang asked with a serious expression.
"That's very possible," Chen Feng nodded.
"Immediately convene a meeting of all sixth-rank martial artists and company-level officers to plan the defenses for tonight." Si Yuniang immediately sent Fang Zhongda to relay the order and summon the relevant officers.
"Commander, if the werewolves launch a night attack tonight, they will probably come out in full force. If we arrange for an ambush force to flank the werewolf camp from the rear, we can not only intercept all the werewolves' supplies, but also attack the werewolf forces from the rear, causing them even greater losses," Chen Feng then said to Si Yuniang.
“Then you will be in charge of this matter. I will arrange three hundred men for you. I believe that only with you leading them can this task be completed,” Si Yuniang said to Chen Feng immediately, making up her mind.
"Okay, then leave it to me." Chen Feng nodded in agreement.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Feng arrived at the camp and scanned the numerous soldiers with piercing eyes.
After careful selection, he finally chose three hundred elite individuals.
Among these three hundred people, there were actually ten martial artists with the strength of the sixth rank!
They were all strong and skilled in martial arts, exuding an awe-inspiring aura.
The remaining 290 people were also no ordinary individuals; they were all martial artists at or above the mid-to-late stage of the seventh rank, each possessing remarkable skills and combat experience.
After selecting the right people, Chen Feng personally supervised the process of equipping them with sufficient winter gear.
These equipment items include thick cotton-padded coats, warm leather boots, and cloaks that can withstand the severe cold, ensuring that every soldier can maintain good combat effectiveness in cold environments.
With everything prepared, the team of three hundred elites set off silently from the side of the stronghold under the cover of night.
Meanwhile, Si Yuniang was not idle either.
She decisively issued a series of orders: First, she arranged for three companies in the battalion to set up ambushes at key locations around the stronghold.
These soldiers, like hunters lurking in the darkness, silently awaited the enemy's appearance;
Secondly, the newly arrived 1,000 soldiers were quickly deployed to their designated positions and made full preparations for battle.
Each position was meticulously arranged, with all weapons and ammunition readily available, ready to deliver a crushing blow when the werewolves attacked.
Chen Feng led his team away swiftly from the side like ghosts.
Their figures blended into the darkness without making a sound.
All of this was thanks to Chen Feng's incredibly keen perception and outstanding reconnaissance skills.
Under Chen Feng's leadership, this elite force, composed entirely of martial artists of the seventh rank or above, skillfully bypassed one obstacle after another and successfully reached the rear of the werewolf camp.
The entire journey took about three hours, but for these highly skilled and battle-hardened martial artists, that amount of time was negligible.
At this moment, the night was already deep, and the stars in the sky twinkled with a faint light.
However, the vast expanse of snow on the ground was like a giant silver mirror, reflecting a faint light so that the surroundings were not completely plunged into darkness.
Looking ahead, the werewolf camp was more than 2,000 meters away, with simple tents scattered in a neat and orderly fashion.
Fortunately, the werewolves seem unaware of their actions and remain gathered in the camp, showing no signs of making a move.
This undoubtedly gave Chen Feng and his men an excellent opportunity to launch a surprise attack.
"Everyone, dig through the snowdrifts and make ice caves inside. We can rest in the cold and eat something to replenish our energy," Chen Feng instructed the soldiers he was leading, while also monitoring the werewolf troops ahead.
Perhaps it was the sudden and heavy snowfall that covered up all traces and sounds, making the area around the werewolf camp exceptionally quiet and deserted.
Surprisingly, not a single werewolf responsible for scouting and keeping watch was seen here.
Perhaps in the eyes of these werewolves, under such harsh weather conditions, it would be impossible for the human forces to send out scouts to risk their lives on a mission.
Time slipped by unnoticed, and two whole hours had passed in the blink of an eye.
It was around dawn, and all was quiet except for the soft, continuous falling of heavy snowflakes.
Suddenly, Chen Feng, who had been closely observing the werewolf camp, noticed something unusual—the once quiet camp began to stir!
Immediately afterwards, a large force of werewolves surged out of the camp like a surging tide.
They moved swiftly and nimbly, stealthily making their way towards the human stronghold.
"Commander Si, the werewolf unit has been deployed and is expected to arrive at the forward positions of the stronghold in about an hour." Chen Feng immediately sent a message to Si Yuniang to report the situation.
However, just as the werewolf troops stepped out of the camp and began to walk away, Chen Feng did not make any rash moves.
At this very moment, if this werewolf force were accidentally disturbed, causing them to suddenly turn back, then thousands of werewolves would surge in like a tidal wave, completely surrounding the mere three hundred soldiers led by Chen Feng.
In this way, it is likely that none of the three hundred soldiers will survive.
Therefore, Chen Feng immediately issued an order for his soldiers to rest on the spot and make the most of their time to recover their depleted physical strength.
However, he did not choose to stay and rest. Instead, he moved slowly and quietly forward alone, carefully tracking the edge of the werewolf camp.
Time passed slowly, and after about half an hour, the huge caravan of werewolves had traveled about twenty miles.
At this moment, they were only about fifteen li away from the camp's stronghold.
Only then did Chen Feng, who had been silently observing everything from the shadows, turn around with peace of mind and quickly return to the location of the werewolf camp.
"All troops, move out immediately! Eliminate the dozens of werewolves remaining in the werewolf camp within five minutes, then gather supplies and prepare to leave, cutting off the werewolves' retreat." Chen Feng returned and immediately woke up the human soldiers and gave the order.
