While the secret guard leader was trying to let Sanqi die, a very familiar voice sounded in Sanqi's ears:
"Just charge forward and kill. Ding Xiang must die here tonight, and it's best to die in your hands."
Sanqi didn't answer or nod, but the hand holding the sword in his hand tightened a little.
Although he is not considered smart, he also knows that his current master intends to support him and make him a confidant of Zhou Zhiyuan.
Today, he is already deeply trusted for saving Zhou Zhiyuan's life and helping him capture Deng Chaodong. If he performs another meritorious service tonight, it is certain that he will become a confidant...
Sanqi here is thinking about how to work hard. The leader of the secret guards over there has arranged everything. Among them, the four people following Sanqi in the lead are all low-level secret guards of the same level as him.
When they were chosen to be next to Sanqi, the faces of the four of them didn't look very good.
Because everyone knows that they are cannon fodder, but it is impossible for them to disobey the orders from above.
Of course, they would not complain against Sanqi, because low-level secret guards like them are dead soldiers, and it is quite normal for them to be sent out to deliver food.
Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, the temporary military camp at Zishi was already filled with snoring, and even the soldiers patrolling around seemed listless and sleepy.
At this moment, the leader of the secret guard gave the order for Sanqi to lead his people and go into the military camp to explore the way.
But the three to seventy-five people were all mute guards. They would not say "yes" when receiving the order, but just rushed towards the military camp with their swords in hand.
"Grandpa, I'm so sleepy, and so are the people above. What could happen in this wilderness? Why do so many of us have to suffer here?"
"Forget it, we people are also unlucky. Look at those who usually have a good relationship with the superiors, all of them are already snoring!"
"No, we have to work the hardest. I used to be a tenant farmer and a rich man's dog, but now...hey, what's going on over there?"
Several green forest soldiers stood by the fire and talked, each one complaining and the other one complaining.
But at this moment, one of them stood up straight, looked at the distance with some confusion and said:
"Just now I seemed to see a shadow over there. Could it be that I saw it wrong?"
Seeing the confusion on the speaker's face, several other Green Forest Army soldiers quickly looked towards where he was talking.
The position they were standing at was actually very tricky. It was specially arranged by the superiors. As long as someone walked this way, they would easily see them.
However, the soldiers of the Green Forest Army were ordinary tenant farmers or even beggars. They had a lot of strength, but their eyesight and alertness were really low.
Therefore, after a casual glance, those few people quickly said indifferently:
"There's no shadow anywhere, don't scare yourself, it's so late at night!"
"That's not it. I can't tell you what kind of little wild cat it is. It's so suspicious!"
"Okay, okay, it's just because I was surprised."
In the end, the man had no choice but to curse and continue chatting with his brothers, but the three or seventy-five people had already taken advantage of this opportunity to slip into the next blind corner, and all five of them breathed a sigh of relief.
As the lowest level of dumb guards, their martial arts skills are indeed not as good as those of the adults above them.
Among them, Sanqi is considered to be the most spiritual and has the best skills.
No, it was the mute guard at the end of the queue who was accidentally spotted by the Green Forest Army over there.
Patting the mute guard's shoulder comfortingly, Sanqi once again took the lead and headed deeper into the military camp.
If you don’t come in, you wouldn’t know that this temporary military camp looks loose, but in fact there are people holding hands at every intersection, and the positions are extremely tricky, making it difficult for them to dodge perfectly.
The ordinary soldiers in front were fine, but Sanqi estimated that there might be hidden guards at the next few intersections.
In other words, they were likely to be discovered and blocked by the opponent before they reached Ding Xiang's tent, and then became a living target for the group behind them to attract attacks.
This won't work, otherwise they will all be annihilated here...
While Sanqi was thinking this, the five of them also arrived at an intersection where someone was obviously ambushing them, and they were about to be exposed to the secret guards in the dark.
However, what the three or seventy-five people didn't expect was that although they could all detect the aura on the other side and felt that they were about to be exposed, the secret guard on the other side didn't notice at all...
At one moment, Sanqi and others even thought that the other party was blind, or else he was a traitor...
But they obviously couldn't think so much as they were currently on a mission, especially Sanqi who had guidance ringing in their ears again.
Run, run to the destination, as long as you don't expose yourself too much, it'll be fine?
Okay, anyway, he is going to die. He will definitely die if he listens to the leader, but it is not certain if he listens to those two people.
One pass, two passes, three...
The group of five people passed through the numerous defense lines unimpeded, and watched helplessly as the large tent belonging to Lilac appeared in their sight.
The expressions of the remaining four mute guards became more and more exaggerated. If they could speak, they would definitely ask Sanqi if they were dreaming.
After all, what is happening in front of me is so magical...
Fortunately, Sanqi was calm enough. He winked at the four of them and pointed to a large tent that was closer to the main tent.
Looking at the layout of this large tent, they could tell that this should belong to Ding Xiang's cronies, and they were the kind of cronies who were good at strategy and flattery, but not very good at force.
Because the decoration of this big tent is obviously better than the others, and the people inside are obviously good at enjoying it. Otherwise, there would not be a trace of noise at the moment, only some moderate snoring.
When Sanqi thought that this was the hiding place that the two men had chosen for them, Sanqi made a quick-attack gesture to the four people behind him, and then took the lead in raising his knife and killing them.
These mute guards are at the bottom of the frontal battlefield, but they are quite experienced in assassination.
Because the first thing they learn from childhood is silence, which is to be silent when killing people and doing things.
Facts have proved that their kung fu is still good, and the people in the tent are indeed unprepared.
Maybe the defense in front was too tight, and these people didn't realize the danger, and if they did, they wouldn't think it was anything.
In short, the three people in the tent, Sanqi and others, each stabbed each other, and the battle was quickly ended. The three who took action took the time to discuss beheading, while the other two were squatting behind the tent, ready to intercept and kill enemies who might return to the tent.
"What are they making blind gestures for? Do you understand?"
Behind a shadow somewhere in the camp, Feng Xi asked Qi Xiao while playing Haqie. She couldn't understand sign language anyway.
"Sanqi told them that the five of them would hide here temporarily, and wait for the second group of people to take action to attract the enemy's attention, and then they would wait for an opportunity."
Feng Xi's bright eyes widened slightly, as if she didn't expect that someone actually understood.
"Those four people didn't want to die, so they all expressed their willingness to obey Sanqi's arrangements. Yes, when today's incident is over, these four people may be his Sanqi's soldiers."
Qi Xiao talked to himself, not afraid that Feng Xi wouldn't understand.
On the other hand, Feng Xi lazily teased:
"As expected of you, Long Aotian is divided into great powers."
"I am Long Aotian, the Great Zhao Fentian. What about you? Feng Aotian, the Great Zhaofen Tian?"
Qi Xiao raised his eyebrows, with a pair of peach blossom eyes showing a light and gentle smile.
Now he can still keep up with a certain phoenix's thoughts, and he finds it extremely interesting.
This also made Feng Xi couldn't help but look at him a few more times, and said with slight relief:
"Not bad young man, even Feng Aotian knows about it~"
Qi Xiao smiled and said nothing, but Sanqi and others over there were determined to wait in the tent.
The leader and others sent them to die and they did it. Didn't they find a perfect ambush place before they died?
So now the tide is turning, and it's others' turn to attract firepower to them.
And just as Sanqi and others thought, seeing that there was no movement in the temporary military camp for a long time, the leader and others quickly became anxious as they were not sure whether they had been ambushed, escaped or hiding.
"Boss, what should we do? Should we go in now or wait? It would be better if they escaped, but they are afraid that they will be misled by the other party and expose us too..."
"No, judging from the current situation, even if they are intercepted, our location should not be exposed."
The leader of the secret guard looked solemn. If the position of their second team was also exposed, the opponent's camp would not be so quiet.
But what happened to the first team?
Why was there no movement inside after taking so long? Could it be that the whole army was really wiped out?
At this moment, the leader of the secret guard felt that whether the whole team was wiped out, escaped, or hid, it would not be a good outcome for him who had to judge the situation.
"Then let's..."
The two secret guards whose status was second only to the leader were still asking, they must complete the task of killing Lilac tonight. After all, their master lost his only son. This tone must be taken.
So they have to fight in sooner or later. The Green Forest Army is not a fool. They will leave camp early this morning at the latest. Once they enter the boundaries of the four counties, it will be difficult for them to attack Lilac...
The leader of the secret guard had obviously thought of this, and he quickly gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice:
"superior!"
The second team quickly infiltrated the military camp as a group. At first, they walked smoothly, but when they reached a strategic point where the enemy's secret guards were holding hands, it was impossible for them to escape without Feng Xi's help to cover them.
Everyone is eating this bowl of rice, so who can we hide this from?
Therefore, a fight started here soon, and the people of the second team also began to disperse and contain the enemy, giving the three leaders a chance to break through and assassinate the leader Ding Xiang.
And their efforts worked quickly. The three leaders quickly rushed to the main tent where Lilac was.
It was at this moment that Ding Xiang, who was in the tent, appeared in front of the three leaders with two subordinates who were walking steadily, playing with the whips in their hands.
"Oh, it's coming very slowly. If you don't come and kill me, I will think that Zhou Zhiyuan is really as cowardly as a mouse and won't dare to avenge his useless son."
Ding Xiang smiled. In her eyes, Zhou Xun, who was killed by a bowl of soup from his concubine, was just a waste among wastes, wasn't he?
