1096 Luring the Enemies

Since that was the case, he would be better off not asking anything.

Swish!

Departing from Nan Luo's camp, Nan Hua was following the route she had thought beforehand. Nan Luo would surely be able to find the two armies that she had asked him to find. These two were a bit further away from Nan Luo's area.

Since that was the case, Nan Hua would use another method to lure them.

Traveling towards the forest, Nan Hua climbed one of the tall one to take a look at the surroundings area. She carried a bag which contained the 'goods' that she took from Nan Luo's camp beforehand.

Since they were moving their headquarter, they wouldn't be there anymore.

'The valley is in that direction. The two closer armies are there, so the other two are over there.'

After determining the location, Nan Hua began to move. It was daytime, but she still moved as stealthily as possible.

Soon, she stopped.

When moving in the forest, it was normal for there to be scouts who came forward to check the areas first. It was even more so when they were in their enemies' area. There was no way they would send their entire army directly.

That was the same as committing suicide.

If their enemies set up traps at the front and they directly waltzed with their entire army, wouldn't it meant they were presenting their own neck?

They were not crazy enough to do that.

Nan Hua put down the bag and began to distribute the items. She made it looked as if there was a camp in this open area not long ago. Since this place had long become the military area, normal people wouldn't be able to stay here any longer.

*brush* *brush*

The marks looked like they were erased forcefully.

After putting it in a few more places, Nan Hua then left.

Not long afterwards.

"There are ashes here!"

"Where?"

The group of scouting soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdoms naturally noticed the faint marks. It was not that obvious, but the scouting soldiers were taught to keep their eyes open for anything.

Now, they saw clear marks of camp around the area.

"It meant that they're in this direction."

"Let's go back and report."

"Ok."

Nan Hua watched from a distance and then left. As long as they had the suspicion, they would be able to guess where the soldiers went from the fake marks that she had left behind.

Her work in this area was done.

All she needed to do was to wait for them to bite it.

Soon, Nan Hua repeated the same process to the other army, luring them in the direction where the valley was located.

After she was done, Nan Hua headed to the designated valley and looked at the mountain beside her. When she was looking at this area previously, she had guessed that the areas were a bit unstable.

And coming here, she managed to confirm her suspicion.

'In fact, it might be even faster than the estimation.'

The mountain was also very big. If this entire area were to be disrupted, it wouldn't be that good for the environment. Nan Hua didn't really care about the forest, though. It was more worrying to think about the people who were living in this area.

Thankfully, they were all moving away due to the war.

So, its empty.

…

The next day, Nan Luo ordered the soldiers to move towards the valley. They encountered the army they previously faced not long ago.

Seeing Nan Luo again, the commander sneered. "You brat still survive? This time, I'll make sure you die under my blade!"

"Bring it on!" Nan Luo yelled back and raised his sword. "Charge!"

"UOoooooooooo!"

The soldiers knew their plan today was to engage in short battle against the armies from Zhang Xu Kingdom. But it didn't change the fact that they were still charging at full power, rushing towards their enemies.

Soon, the sound of metal clashing reverberated in the valley.

Nan Hua was hiding at the side, silently counting the time. She was closer to the Zhang Xu Kingdom's army compared to Nan Luo's side, which would allow her to help Nan Luo to kill the enemy's soldiers when it was necessary.

But what she was doing here was actually to wait for the soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom to come.

The sound of the battles would surely attract them since they were not far from here.

Drap! Drap! Drap!

"Heh! So you're here! MEN, CHARGE!"

Nan Luo's lips twitched when he saw the army that came rushing in. With this, the number of the enemies had risen into a staggering number of 7,000 soldiers. He knew very well that in this situation, it would be better for them to retreat.

However, he had to hold on.

"Maintain formation! Raise your shield and don't let them breakthrough!" Nan Luo gave his order again.

He was waiting for Qiu Xian to appear.

"Young Master, don't move around so much! You'll fall," Xiao Yan warned when he saw Nan Luo was trying to steer the horse. He was trying to follow Nan Luo's order as much as possible and helped the young master to be able to steer the horse well.

"I'm fine!"

Nan Luo gritted his teeth when he saw the enemies swarmed in. Nan Hua told him that he should start retreating when three armies were approaching close. That was why he was waiting for Qiu Xian to appear.

After all, Qiu Xian brought along a few hundred soldiers with him.

They would pass through this valley from the other side.

Drap! Drap! Drap!

The familiar sound of horse galloping could be heard.

Nan Luo's eyes lit up as he raised his sword. "Start retreating!"

"Uoooooooo!"

The soldiers began to move while Nan Luo finally saw Qiu Xian entering the valley. They were running from the army that was chasing after them. Qiu Xian looked a bit worried but also relieved that he managed to reach the valley.
