In this operation, lighting a fire together was crucial.

And another point, there had to be a door in the direction of the fire.

This was deliberately left for the mountain raiders in the stronghold to escape!

As it goes, the art of war has a saying, ‘Three encirclements is lacking one,’ This was to give the other party a way out, making him only think of escaping in times of crisis!

“This… Will it work?”

Yale frowned. He still couldn’t believe Su Mu’s decision.

“Hahaha, you can rest assured. I will teach you a few more words. When the time comes for you to start the fire, you must shout it out loud. Remember, the louder the better!”

Su Mu went over and whispered a few words into Yale’s ear.

Following such, these words were relayed.

After Yale heard them, his face was filled with confusion, but he still nodded his head and obeyed.

…

The night shift was three minutes long.

On the wall outside the stockade.

Sandy and Sang Du were on duty to guard the place. They yawned as they looked at the layers of the forest outside. They were extremely tired.

Both of them were ordinary raiders in the stockade. They were also ostracized by the others, which was why the task of looking after the territory was assigned to them.

This job was not even profitable, only tiring.

“Hey, I’ll take a nap first. You can sleep next time.”

Sang Du said to Sandy.

“Okay, you sleep first. I’ll wake you up when the moon reaches the treetops.”

Sandy agreed readily.

Anyway, it was not the first time that the two of them kept vigil.

But every time they did so, no one would come to their mountain stronghold.

Therefore, they also took advantage of the night to take a nap.

There and then.

Suddenly, a few figures moved in the woods outside the entrance of their stockade.

“Wait! Do you see something over there?”

Sandy rubbed his eyes and wondered if there was something wrong with them.

He pulled Sang Du and pointed in the direction of the woods

“Where?”

Sang Du squinted his sleepy eyes and looked in the direction that was pointed.

But there was nothing there!

Then, he pointed in the direction of the forest.

There were only dark trees and the long night.

“What’s there? Maybe it’s a wild rabbit. You’re too sleepy, so you’re hallucinating!”

Sang Du slapped Sandy’s head and sneered.

“Well…that might be the case, hahaha!”

Sandy smiled awkwardly and scratched his head in embarrassment.

After they finished talking, they stopped caring about the situation outside.

Sang Du squinted his eyes first, leaned against the bench next to him, and fell asleep.

Sandy touched his head alone and muttered to himself in embarrassment.

“Sigh, I must be hallucinating… Haha…”

After saying that, he no longer cared about what was happening outside.

He leaned against the guard post and stared blankly.

In the forest…

Su Mu looked at the mountain raiders in the stockade who were so relaxed and chuckled.

These mountain raiders were really fearless. The people guarding the gate at night had such a good mentality.

If a regular army was really mobilized, then it would be too easy to annihilate them all.

In fact, Su Mu himself was a little impulsive and wanted to really charge forward!

However, he suppressed this thought.

After all, the leader of the raiders was still inside.

Immediately thereafter….

It was time to get down to business!

Su Mu’s expression became slightly serious as he commanded everyone.

“Everyone, light up the forest here!”

The order was issued.

Su Mu’s group of five or six people lit up the firewood that they had prepared beforehand.

Because they were in the north, the weather was dry, so the fire was easier to ignite.

The moment the fire lit up, it immediately started to burn!

The whole mountain was covered in red, like a sea of fire.

At the same time…

On the other side of the mountain stronghold, Yale also saw the fire and ordered everyone to light one as well.

In an instant, the mountain stronghold was surrounded by fire.

Then, the following events occurred according to the agreement.

The sounds of killing could be heard all over the mountain!

“Kill! Don’t let the mountain raiders leave!”

“Kill all the traitors! Don’t leave a single one alive!”

“Blair’s uprising has been quelled. The rest of his accomplices are all dead!”

“Don’t let the leader of the raiders leave. His head is worth a thousand gold coins! A promotion!”

“One head for the rest of the rebels is worth a hundred gold coins!”

Especially in this valley, the voices kept echoing.

Although there were only a dozen or so people on Su Mu’s side, the momentum created was not small at all. It was not any less than the momentum of a few hundred people.

This time, the raiders were completely intimidated.

“What happened?!”

Sang Du opened his eyes and looked around. He saw a sea of fire in front of him.

When he heard the cries of manslaughter, he grabbed Sandy who was at a loss.

“I… I don’t know either!”

Sandy didn’t know what had happened either.

He had just squinted his eyes. How did a group of people suddenly come to attack them?

Not only that, Su Mu led his men to charge.

He took out his bow and shot at Sang Du, who had just woken up.

This time, the distance between the two was not far.

Su Mu’s arrow directly struck Sang Du, who had just opened his eyes. Before he could calm down from his panic, Sang Du lost his breath.

When Sandy saw Sang Du’s pupils gradually dilate, he lost his vitality.

Only then did he realize that the enemy had come!

“Run! It’s the capital city guards!”

With this cry, even the mountain raiders who had been sleeping woke up from their sleep.

“I think they said something about the capital city guards coming?”

“They’re so noisy. What capital city guards? They don’t sleep at night?!”

“Which dog doesn’t sleep at night? What are you shouting for?!”

The raiders came out of their rooms one after another. Their sleepy eyes were wide open, and they were very confused.

But in the next second, they saw the sky full of fire outside the mountain stronghold.

Instantly, they were stunned!

Hank slowly walked out of his room and saw that the outside of the mountain stronghold was red. Even that day had been dyed in the same color.

He realized that things were not good!

“Boss, Boss! The city guards are attacking from outside. Boss, what should we do?”

Sandy ran all over the place in a panic. He stumbled several times and was covered in dust.

Moreover, Sang Du had been shot by an arrow. Pools of blood splattered on his body.

This look really made him think that the city guards were attacking!

Moreover, at the same time…

The sounds of battle outside were getting closer and closer.

From the scattered sounds of battle, Hank heard some words that shocked him.

“Blair’s uprising has been quelled, the accomplices who confessed are inside…”

“Brothers, follow me and kill! The one who kills the leader will be promoted to a higher rank…”

“Don’t let the rebels escape….”
