Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 892

Chapter 892: The River Banks (2)

He occasionally pierced them to the ground on their way to the river banks while Feng Ao Kuai was leading the group. His night vision was better than Nan Luo. Besides, his keener senses allowed him to be able to walk without tripping even at night.

Si Kang and Xiao Yan were in the middle, making sure that the soldiers were not scattered and still followed the lead properly.

Nan Hua was scouting ahead.

She only stopped occasionally to wait for the others to catch up while making sure that there were no enemies around. With her keen senses, it was easy for her to detect if there was someone who was spying on them.

She stopped around a kilometer away from the river banks.

There were rocks formation around the area along with some tall trees. She glanced at the rocks and leapt up agilely. Her eyes swept on the ground as she noticed that there were several people who were guarding the area.

They were all feeling sleepy.

However, they would definitely be able to notice if there was anyone who approached the river banks.

Swish! Slash!

"Wha…?" The second man was about to shout when a slash reached his throat. Blood spurt out, cutting him short from speaking.

Nan Hua proceeded to kill the third man, who was sleeping peacefully and then checked her surroundings. She looked at the other side and realized that there were three watch guards' area.

In that case, she would kill them all.

Swish!

At this time, Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Luo had gotten closer. They could see the river a distance away from them, but they didn't dare to approach it recklessly. The sun was already going down, so it was dark here.

"Where's Nan?" Nan Luo asked quietly.

"She should be here soon." Feng Ao Kuai's eyes narrowed as he sensed the faint metallic tang of blood. Raising his head, he could see the faint silhouette rushing towards them and stopped not far from them.

Nan Hua was indeed the best scout in this situation. None of the soldiers could match her ability to travel in the night and erased her presence. No one would even notice that she was standing there in the broad daylight if Nan Hua didn't want them to notice.

Though, they knew that they couldn't rely on her forever.

They had to train someone to be able to be the scout of their army. After all, Nan Hua wouldn't be staying as Adjutant Nan forever and would eventually leave.

"There are soldiers on the two areas behind the rocks. One on the left and the other at the right," Nan Hua's report was concise. "Each of them had around 1000 to 2000 soldiers."

4000 soldiers in total? _{frёeωebɳovel.com}

Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Luo looked at each other.

"Make an ambush first before ringing the noise. This will attract their attention and didn't alarm them of our number."

"Got it!"

Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai separated their soldiers as they briefed the plan to these people. Xiao Yan would be staying at the top of the rock while Nan Luo would be leading one side to kill the soldiers.

The archers could only shoot those who were nearby while the other soldiers wouldn't get close at all.

"In case they started to climb the rocks, you should stop shooting and switch to melee." Nan Luo didn't want his soldiers to misfire and kill their comrades.

"Yes, Young Commander!"

"Let's go."

Nan Hua looked at Nan Luo for a moment before turning towards Feng Ao Kuai. Compared to Nan Luo, who was skilled at close combat, she was more concerned with Feng Ao Kuai who had lower close combat skill.

Feng Ao Kuai led the soldiers to the rocks while Si Kang led one of them to one end. The other was tasked to another commander in their army to make the surprise attack.

The first one to attack would naturally be Feng Ao Kuai.

"Everyone get ready."
