"No, I'm fine!"
Wu yucao quickly shook her head, too embarrassed to continue riding alongside Lin Yi.
The road wasn't very wide to begin with, and it was a little too narrow for three horses to ride side by side. Wu yucao pulled on the reins a little and slowed down a little, letting Lin Yi and black wildflower lead the way.
However, seeing Lin Yi and black wildflower's silhouettes from behind made Wu yucao's heart ache.
"Little brother Sima, I really didn't sleep well last night. Although I wasn't ambushed, I was wondering if the enemy was preparing to ambush us on the way?"
Black wildflower turned around and glanced at Wu yucao. He didn't continue talking about her and instead changed the topic.""In the Yuexin relay station, it'll be a bit troublesome to launch a sneak attack, and it'll be difficult to clean up the loose ends, so the possibility of them ambushing us along the way is higher."
If it were black wildflower herself, she would most likely make the same choice, so putting herself in his shoes, she believed that if there was such a potential opponent, an ambush would be the most suitable way to deal with them.
"Hehe ... Sister hei ye, do you think so too? In fact, I also have such a consideration. If there really is a team that has accepted the same mission and wants to eliminate the opponent in advance, an ambush along the way is obviously the best choice!"
Lin Yi took out a map as he spoke-it was the basic layout of the sub Island that came with the equipment. "There's a place called the broken soul Stream not far from the tsunaga relay station. Sister hei ye, you know about it, right?"
Black wildflower didn't look at the map in Lin Yi's hand and nodded,"I know this place. There are cliffs on both sides, and it's difficult for even a monkey to cross. There's a small stream in the middle. The water isn't deep, and you can walk, but the bottom of the stream is extremely slippery, making it difficult to maintain balance. If you want to pass through from there, you have to be careful, or you'll easily fall into the stream."
"That's right. I've read a simple description of the stream. It's the best place for an ambush. If I were to make the arrangements, I'd first arrange for people to be on the cliffs on both sides. I'd prepare enough stones and push them down when someone passes through it, forming the first wave of killing and chaos."
Lin Yi hadn't seen the valley in person, but he had a rough idea of what it looked like."Then, we'll find a place to set up an ambush in the valley and arrange for archers to carry out the second wave of long-range attacks. By this time, most of the ambushed targets will have been crippled."
"The remaining 20% will also be surrounded and annihilated in the chaos because it's difficult to stand on the stream and move quickly. Is that what little brother Sima thinks?"
Black wildflower was still smiling, but there was a hint of solemnity in his smile."Then how should we break out of this situation? After all, the stream of broken souls isn't far away, we'll reach it in a few minutes. "
"I've been thinking about this question. Even if you didn't ask, I would have said it. "
Lin Yi put away the map and turned to wave at Ling lingfa,"Ling lingfa, I have something to discuss with you!"
Ling lingfa squeezed his horse's belly with his legs and shook the reins to catch up.""What is it?"
"We might be ambushed next, so we need to make some preparations. According to the agreement, you and your people must listen to my command. Is that okay?"
Lin Yi smiled at Ling lingfa, but his eyes were sharp. He'd come to say those things last night, but today he'd be able to tell if he was sincere or not.
"Of course, no problem! We'll do whatever you say!"
Ling lingfa nodded without hesitation.""Do you want us to Scout the way or be bait?"
"Since you don't have any problems, then just follow my arrangements!"
Lin Yi's eyes softened a lot as he gestured for black wildflower and Ling lingfa to come closer and started whispering.
They were still about seven to eight minutes away from the stream, but there were four black Spirit Ferghana horses left. Lin Yi, Ling Hanxue, black wildflower, and Ling lingfa's archers left the group silently.
At this time, the sky was drizzling, so the remaining people put on raincoats and covered their faces. The four black Spirit Ferghana horses that were empty were also carried by some equipment. It looked like they were originally used to carry things.
The speed of the entire team was neither fast nor slow. When they arrived at the broken soul Stream, they did not enter it directly, but took a short break at the periphery.
After waiting for a while, two of Ling lingfa's subordinates rode their Black Spirit Ferghana horses into the stream of broken souls to act as Scouts.
When encountering a dangerous terrain, it was the choice of every team to send out Scouts to investigate. This was not surprising.
While waiting for the scouts to return and report, the rest of the people surrounded the Black Spirit Ferghana horses and sat down to rest.
After waiting for more than half an hour, one of the two Scouts rushed back and reported that he had not found anything unusual. The other was on guard at the other end of the stream. Thus, everyone mounted their horses and set off!
"Boss hei ye, do you really think that Sima Yi is reliable? If anything goes wrong, we'll all be annihilated!"
Ling lingfa and black wildflower walked at the front of the group. They looked straight ahead and whispered,""The scouts didn't find the ambush, but that doesn't mean there's no ambush. The other party must have a way to hide from the scouts."
"Ling lingfa, if you're afraid, you can bring your men back first. We won't be so enthusiastic as to keep someone like you!"
Black wildflower covered his mouth with a fan and chuckled softly.""Since I've said that I'll listen to little brother Sima's arrangements, I won't have any doubts about him. Even if he wants to use us as bait, I'm willing to do so!"
Ling lingfa pursed his lips and thought to himself,'no one would believe your nonsense!'
If you didn't have the confidence to protect yourself, why would you listen to Lin Yi's orders and risk your life?
"Since you're so confident, that's great! In fact, your guess might not be correct. Who said that there would be an ambush? Maybe there's no ambush at all?"
Ling lingfa seemed to be optimistic, and black wildflower agreed with him. However, he was worried about whether Lin Yi was doing well.
After leaving the group, Lin Yi took Ling Hanxue and the other two archers and split into two groups. He and Ling Hanxue chose a cliff, while the other two archers went around the other side of the cliff.
According to Lin Yi's calculations, if there was really an ambush, there would be preparations on the cliff, but there wouldn't be many people left. One or two would be enough since the main battlefield was below.
Therefore, just in case, the cliffs on both sides of the stream had to be safe!
