The construction of the camp has begun one after another, but in terms of speed, the progress is actually a bit slow.

Although Ella's words at the meeting were clear and logical, in reality they were vague guidelines based on a map that was not very accurate. When it comes to choosing a site to build a camp and ambush soldiers and horses, it is inevitable to conduct a large amount of actual surveys of the surrounding environment. Ella didn't think these traps would really work, so she wanted to do it perfunctorily, but Xue Qi Peipei wouldn't agree. In order not to make him suspicious, Ella could only arrange it carefully. Among them, there was inevitably another quarrel with Xue Qi Peipei. They quarreled back and forth. It took three days to decide on the location of the second trap camp.

The affairs of one camp were already so troublesome, and Ella had no intention of taking care of the affairs of the other five strongholds.

And Xue Qipei was not comfortable either. The Leopard Warriors often saw him alone in the tent, leaning on his head and thinking hard, or walking aimlessly in circles in the camp. As the camp gradually took shape, his uneasiness grew stronger. On several occasions, he broke into the camps of lords of various states without any reason, and then left angrily after gaining nothing.

He finally couldn't stand it anymore and gathered the leopard warriors responsible for the reconnaissance into his camp.

"Have you not noticed anything unusual yet?" He yelled at these men, "What is Tesosomok's plan???"

"Sir...there really doesn't seem to be anything unusual. They are just chopping and building wood, right?"

"The white knight who used to come to our place to drink has disappeared these days. Is this an abnormality?"

"Don't worry about that little bastard! He doesn't have any magic power in him and is a complete liar! If he still comes here to drink, I really want to kick him out!"

After Xue Qipei finished yelling, she walked several steps back and forth in the camp with her hands behind her back.

"Before leaving, the Sun King specifically told me that Tesosomok cannot be completely trusted. He also said that if he arrives at the stronghold and defends calmly, then it will be okay. If there is any big move, then it will be 100% Ninety percent of the time, there are other plans. Tesosomok's moves this time are too big, and he might really be able to capture the enemy leader. How can I feel at ease!"

"I have a guess..."

A leopard warrior raised his hand slightly.

"This time we are responsible for the ambush in the camp, and the camp is full of fire starters. Would Tessosomoc want to deliberately cause a fire and kill us? Of course... it's just a guess, without any evidence."

"That makes sense!"

They arrived all the way outside Tesosomok's tent, only to find that Tesosomok was not there. After asking, I found out that Tesosomok and Ella had gone to inspect the construction site. Xue Qi Peipei waved his hand, and the group walked toward the construction site aggressively. But when passing by a patch of grass, a sharp-eyed leopard warrior suddenly noticed that the grass was shaking.

"Who's there!" he shouted, "come out right now!"

Before Xue Qipei could say anything, the well-trained Leopard Warriors had already surrounded him. What followed was a sound of vomiting coming from the grass. Lying in the grass was a drunken Duster, his clothes covered with vomit.

"Why is this drunkard again?" Xue Qipei narrowed his eyes, "What is he doing lying here?"

"Look here... such a long and big field of weeds!" Dast rolled his eyes and looked at Xue Qipei drunkenly, "Maybe there will be a few rabbits hiding in it? No, you have to... ...Send a few leopard warriors to keep an eye on it, catch the rabbit and let's roast it and eat it together!"

"Drunkard, just keep your eyes on this place!"

Xue Qipei spat on the ground and continued walking towards the construction site.

He saw the Aztlan warriors carrying a stretcher from a distance, and he shouted before he got close:

"Tessosomok! I don't want to be used as a bait in the camp. There is a pile of fire in there, and whoever wants to take advantage of it can take advantage of it! Hurry up and arrange it for me outside!"

"Okay." Ella replied without thinking.

"You don't agree, right? Don't think

I didn't see through your plot...huh? "

Xue Qi Peipei was of course stunned on the spot.

"Where do you want to place your troops? Align yourself with the troops there. Come on, Tesosomok, let's go over there and take a look."

Ella and Tesosomok walked away from Xuechipepe's eyes.

One day later, Xue Qi Peipei pulled the Leopard Warriors over again. There were big black circles on his eyes, and red dots on his hands and neck.

"Who had the bad idea to transfer us out of the camp? How can we sleep well on this grass! We were bitten by mosquitoes, fleas, and even ants! It was said that we were lying in wait until the enemy appeared, but the enemy I don’t even know when it will show up!”

"Sir, I think we may have been deceived."

The other leopard warrior raised his hand slightly.

"That girl is very cunning. Maybe she wants to take this opportunity to transfer us outside so that they won't be monitored. We took the initiative, but we fell into her trap!"

"That makes sense!"

This time, Tesosomok inspected the construction situation at the second camp. Xue Qipei led the Leopard Warriors through a highland and saw the crown of a tree shaking suddenly.

"Who's there!" shouted a leopard warrior, "come out quickly!"

Before Xue Qipei could say anything, the well-trained Leopard Warriors had already surrounded him. But there were two "pop, pop" sounds, and two bird eggs fell to the ground. Daxter poked his head out from behind the leaves, holding a hollowed-out bird's nest in his hand.

"I...I lost something!" He said inarticulately, "Can you pick it up for me?"

"Why are you an alcoholic again!"

"The view here... is good, you can see the scenery of the camp. Maybe you can catch a few birds... and roast them."

"Who cares about you!"

Xue Qi Peipei cursed, ignored Dast, and left with the Leopard Warriors. After passing the high ground, he saw Tesosomok's stretcher from a distance and roared again:

"Tessosomok! I want to go back and stay inside! Whoever wants to sleep on the grass will do it!"

"Okay." Ella replied without thinking.

"You don't agree, right? Don't think that I haven't seen through your plot... Huh?"

Xue Qi Peipei was once again stunned.

"It doesn't matter anyway. But it is recommended not to make frequent transfers." Ella said, "Changing orders every day is not a good thing for a general."

After saying that, Ella and Tesosomok walked away from Xue Qipei's eyes.
