Chapter 45: Ambush Battle

  In the dense forest, a team of about three hundred people waited quietly for their leader's command.

  Leng Xiangyao nodded in satisfaction, within the five days, although the number of people had decreased from over a thousand to only three hundred now, he was extremely confident that with the current fighting strength of these three hundred people under his lead, they would absolutely not lose to the original thousand plus people.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, I believe everyone is aware that the beastman's reinforcement troops have arrived at the front of Tiger Valley. The Tiger Team is currently facing an unprecedented predicament. Tonight's mission is a sneak attack. I won't give you any orders; everything will be done according to your wishes. Finally, I want to emphasize one thing: in this sneak attack, I don't require you to kill many people, but first and foremost, you must protect your own lives. If you can't even keep your own lives safe, then what will you use to kill the enemy? One last thing to remember: once you've exposed yourself as a target, lure the enemy into the surrounding forest. As for how to kill them afterwards, I shouldn't need to teach you that, should I?"

  "Yes, Captain." More than 300 people responded in unison, their voices filled with respect.

  Leng Xiao nodded and waved his hand: "Dismissed, start disguising, half an hour later, we will take collective action."

  "Yes, Captain." The soldiers dispersed neatly, each one applying black camouflage to themselves, starting to disguise themselves. These soldiers used a method that was similar to the camouflage methods used by special forces on Earth, which was also a combat technique taught by Leng Xiang.

  Leng Xiao Yao gazed at the dispersing soldiers, a hint of a relieved smile on his face. He then walked over to Xing Zhe and others, saying: "Big Brother Xing."

  "What's going on?" Xiangzi asked with a smile while pretending to be calm.

  "This time I won't be acting with everyone else, you guys be careful, remember, come back alive."

  Xing Zixue nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely bring them back. You'd better be careful yourself, don't always rush to the front when killing enemies."

  "En." After nodding calmly, he also exchanged greetings with Qin Hao and others before starting to camouflage himself on the spot.

  Half an hour later, more than 300 warriors dispersed in all directions with a gesture from Cold Blood, and they went to the Beastman army camp in twos and threes.

  "Caw caw" The sound of birds chirping rose, near the beastman army camp, more than 300 shadows that had been quietly lurking began to sneak into the beastman army camp after hearing this bird call.

  One by one, the sword lights lit up, and one by one, the corpses fell to the ground. But before they even hit the ground, they were caught by a pair of strong hands and dragged away to a secret location. After a moment, another figure appeared in the secret location, quietly sneaking towards the remaining patrolling soldiers.

  The dark night was like a behemoth of chaos, as if it would swallow the entire earth. At this moment, a secret battle had unfolded outside the beastman army camp.

  As time passed, the more than 300 people led by Leng Xiao Yao surprisingly did not have a single person expose their identity in half an hour. Leng Xiao Yao felt extremely accomplished, knowing that he had only given these people some slight training and yet they were able to execute the moves he taught them with such precision.

  In the beastman army camp, Luteba always had a bad premonition in his heart, but he couldn't say where this bad premonition came from. So he kept tossing and turning on the bed, unable to sleep no matter what.

  "Is it just because tomorrow is the final battle? So excited that can't sleep?" Ruterba thought of a comforting reason, but was immediately overturned by Ruterba himself. What a joke, it's not even a large-scale battle, for a seasoned veteran like Ruterba, this small-scale battle wouldn't even stir up a ripple in his heart. What is it then?

  "Alas!" Luteba could no longer bear the torment in his heart, so he got out of bed and walked out of the tent, as if to breathe some fresh air.

  "Huh?" Rutba had just walked out of the tent when he felt a sense of unease, but exactly what it was, he couldn't quite put his finger on. So he quietly observed his surroundings, and suddenly he realized what was off - it was too quiet. It seemed that there wasn't a single sound coming from the outskirts of the camp, which was just not normal at all!

  "Halt!" Just as Luteba was about to go out and take a look, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and Luteba immediately shouted: "Who dares to trespass on the military camp?"

  "Bad, I've been found out." Leng Xiao Yao thought to himself, but when he heard the loud and clear voice, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. It was him after all!

  Actually, before the assassination began, Leng Xiao had taken advantage of the dark night to sneak into the center of the Beastman army camp alone, specifically targeting the generals. Just now, he had just finished dealing with a general and was about to flash out of the tent when he happened to be discovered by Rutuba who had just come out of the tent. It was actually Leng Xiao's bad luck that if it were another general, he might have been able to slip away unnoticed due to his quick movements. However, unfortunately, Leng Xiao bumped into Rutuba, a swordsman of high level, so all his tracks were exposed.

  "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" After the sound of Lute's drinking voice faded away, countless figures rushed out from the surrounding military camps and chased after Cold Imprisoned Splendor, who had flashed and disappeared in a certain direction.

  "What's going on?" Batur was also awakened by the noise and came out from under the canvas.

  Luteba's face turned extremely ugly as he replied: "There are enemies who have sneaked in and launched a surprise attack, the extent of the losses is still unknown."

  "Sneak attack? Where are the people? Have they been sent to chase after them?" Batru's face also showed a difficult expression, with over 70,000 troops on their side, yet they were still ambushed by the enemy's mere 10,000+ troops, and what's more, they were only discovered when they had already reached their doorstep. If this news got out, it would be a loss of face to death.

  Luteba heard Bateer's words and was stunned for a moment. The next moment, Luteba ordered his deputy officer: "Pass my order, those pursuing cavalry immediately retreat back, strengthen the patrol cavalry, and quickly count the loss data for me."

  "Yes, General." The deputy officer responded and quickly ran over, seemingly to convey Rutuba's orders.
