…
The glowing brightness of the sun in the sky and the heat it extended to every living thing in the land give both energy and warmth to everything under it. However, right at this moment, this very heat is making the soldiers marching in the land sweat non-stop as they sped up their pace to a particular direction following their leader.
Shin Jiao is one of those soldiers. However, in contrast to the people around him, he didn't even have a trace of fatigue or the sound of catching his breath. But he could not stand out hence every now and then he would show that he was tired. But of course, the sweating is something he could not fake.
And so the soldiers march away from the stronghold while unknown to them, except their captain and vice-captain, a large army is on their tail.
The soldiers of the Silver Moon Empire are trained in basic fighting. However, they are also trained in doing two things. The first one is setting traps for wild beasts. As most of them are farmers and hunters, they are already experienced in making traps. And the army has trained these people to farther enhance their ability in making traps to the next level.
The second thing they learned in the army is how to use internal energy. Although the people in this land could not use Qi and cultivate, after many years, they have discovered the use of internal energy. It is a mysterious energy in every person of living things in the land. This internal energy can be used in both combat and body enhancement. However, not everyone can use it. Those lucky few that are able to utilize internal energy are revered as strong.
Every now and then, Captain Long Li Lai would shout and command the soldiers to plant hidden traps in an area they are in. and through their march, they have already made more than a few traps. Although the soldiers are confused as to why their captain would command them, they still followed.
Meanwhile, on Shin Jiao's side, he would secretly combine his traps with some surprises.
And so not long later, the soldiers have already reached the foot of a mountain. When everyone noticed where they were going, they now realized what the captain's plan is. And then, after looking from their vantage point, they soon noticed that a large army is actually following them a couple of kilometers away.
Suddenly, the group heard a loud sound.
Even at their distance, they can see a cloud of black smoke rising in the air.
"What was that?" Captain Long Li Lai asked as he squinted his eyes trying to see the enemy in the far distance.
However, since they are too far, he could not assess the situation. But judging from a large number of soldiers, he is sure that there are around 500 men chasing after them. But after that loud explosion, they can see that almost 1/8 of the soldiers fell.
"Let's continue we have to reach the area before the enemy could arrive." Captain Long Li Lai shouted.
In truth, if they just focused on marching they would have arrived in the place already. But according to his vice-captain and adjutant, this is the best way to whittle down their enemy's number.
And so the army continues marching while setting simple traps everywhere.
In the enemy camp, an enemy captain is already cursing at the despicable traps his company has already suffered through.
He is now both angered and helpless. How could they know that their enemy would lay such simple yet effective traps all over the place? But his orders are clear. They are to wipe out the escaping soldiers. As he waited for the scout to finish looking at the area upfront, he got off his mount and walked towards a soldier lying on the ground.
"Those bastards! I will kill them all." He said with gritted teeth while looking at the half charred dead soldier.
This is one of the soldiers that were caught in that loud explosion a while ago. The rest who were a bit closer to it have holes in their corpses.
Shin Jiao uses a mixture that he has been working on which should be a viable chemical to be used as gun powder. That and combined with some shrapnel made of different materials, he was able to make a primitive anti-personnel mine, which has now damaged the morale of the enemy.
"Those who are able to march we continue the chase!" shouted their captain.
And so the group marches, but not long later, they arrive in another area and an accident happened. No matter how good the scouts are, they are unable to find all the traps set by 100 soldiers from the Silver Moon Empire.
In each of their stops, each soldier is able to make one trap of their own. Some are easily seen, while others are concealed expertly. And this is what's making the enemy having a hard time.
Not long later, the infantry company where Shin Jiao belongs to has already arrived at a tall cliff. The captain secretly sneakily walked towards the edge of the cliff and looks down. From where he lays he can see a large number of soldiers rushing towards the stronghold.
With bows and arrows on their hand and large shields, they are able to inch closer towards the stronghold. Then he saw something from the distance which made him feel a bit surprised. This is because the enemy has created three catapults and is currently pushing it to an acceptable range.
"Damn if those things begin attacking, then the base would not be able to stand for long." Long Li Lai muttered to himself as he carefully backs away from the ledge.
"We need to work faster!" he shouted to the soldiers waiting behind him after his return.
"Everyone, this is what we need to do…" Chen Tung shouted as she gave out her instruction to the rest of the soldiers.
Soon, after working together for a while, they are able to produce 12 large circular boulders.
"Let's start!" Long Li Lai shouted as the group pushes the boulders towards the edge of the cliff.
Meanwhile, Shin Jiao and the rest are still making more circular boulders using the pickaxes produced by the captain.
He just followed with the group and also worked with them like normal. He knew that the captain's plan would work for a while, but they are facing against 4,000 enemies. How could be that simple? But strategizing is not his forte; hence he just followed what their plan is.
Soon the attack commences and the boulders began rolling down the cliff.
Some of the boulders are able to roll down towards the army with great momentum that it left a bloody path of mush flesh and bone, while others would be unlucky and fall on a corner without hitting its purpose.
But this attack from the cliff made the enemy be aware of their presence.
"Where did those boulders come from?!" shouted General Zou Bu Lao of the Golden Dragon Empire's Golden Hawk battalion.
This is because most of the soldiers squashed by those falling boulders are a part of his battalion.
No one answered as they are unaware of the culprit. Even after looking at the direction where those things came from they can see no one.
"I want some scouts towards that direction!" shouted General Lao as he pointed at the stiff cliff.
Three men immediately broke away from the group and rushes towards the direction where the boulders came from.
However, they didn't know that someone is already watching them from the top in one of the ledges.
Shin Jiao took a break and secretly snuck to his position as he knew that the enemy might send someone to check this place out.
And after seeing the three people, a smirk appears on his face. He then lifted his gaze and looks at the battlefield.
"This is a really gruesome war…" he thought as he saw people dying turning the ground crimson with their blood.
But then he shifted his gaze back to the scouts and carefully moves from his spot and dispose of them one by one in secret.
After doing so, he walked back to the soldiers still working on the boulders. But then he saw a familiar figure walking towards him.
Seeing the vice-captain, even Shin Jiao could not detect the woman in that façade. He can truly say that the woman really looks like a strong man… a warrior.
"It seems that you've been busy…" she said with a smile.
"Yeah, I've been taking care of some bugs." Shin Jiao replied with a smile.
He knew that she might have seen what he did a while ago. Plus with what had happened between them in the river that night, he knew that she already has seen through his skills. Although she is a good fighter, she still falls a bit short when it comes to fighting. That's why she lost that night to Shin Jiao and was subdued easily.
"So what is the next phase of the plan?" Shin Jiao asked with a smile.
"That one…" she pointed at the huge slope that seems to be protruding.
When Shin Jiao saw the cracks on the side, he was a bit surprised.
"How did you?"
Chen Tung smiled mysteriously and took a step closer toward Shin Jiao.
"Can you make it fall to the enemy soldiers?" she asked in a low tone.
"Are you crazy? If that thing falls, there is a chance that this whole cliff would also fall with it."
"That is the risk we will have to take." She said with determination sparkling in her eyes.
Shin Jiao though for a while and heaves a sigh.
Although he is not sure if it would really cause an accident, he knew that if that thing falls down it would surely crush the soldiers on the ground and would block the huge plain. In fact, as he scanned the whole area they are in right now, he can see that the possibility of the cliff collapsing with that huge piece of rock is inevitable.
"Ok, I agree, but I need the soldiers to go back and away from this cliff." Shin Jiao said as he draws a simple plan in his mind.
