Chapter 426: Slaughter (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Some time ago, at the Tiger Head Mountain camp.

The moonlight shone down with a clear gaze, and the mountain wind was cold.

While the camp was quite quiet, the people of Tiger Head Mountain were not asleep. Instead, they were holding weapons and resting, waiting for orders.

In the main tent, the four leaders of Tiger Head Mountain, Guo Haishen, and Fang Zhen were discussing the situation in low voices around the brazier.

“Before Second Brother left, he instructed that if he succeeded, the enemy’s main stronghold would definitely be in chaos. He wants us to be prepared to receive him at any time. I wonder how he’s doing now.”

Guo Haishen reached out to warm himself up as he dully spoke.

Hong Dingxian replied in a deep voice, “The boys are resting and can attack at any time, but I’m afraid they’re not used to night battles.”

In the plan that everyone had finalized, Zhou Jing would infiltrate and behead the enemy. Once he took down the enemy leader, Yellow Pond Mountain would be leaderless. At that time, there would be a change in the main stronghold area, and the people would definitely be in a panic.

As for their more than 2,000 people, they would wait for this opportunity to move. When the enemy was in chaos, they would immediately attack the lower base. They did not have to necessarily break through. As long as they restrained or blocked the gate, they could make the branch base have no time to care about anything else such as restricting Zhou Jing’s movements. When Zhou Jing’s side was completely resolved, they could take down Yellow Mountain without any casualties.

Peng Jin touched his red beard and smiled, “Brother Chen Feng is proficient in martial arts, so it’s naturally easy for him this time. Xu Gui underestimated me during the day. When he’s captured, I’ll definitely play with him.”

“Don’t underestimate the enemy. We’ve fought with Yellow Pond Mountain many times, and that Xu Gui has made us suffer a lot. He might have some plan in mind.” Hong Dingxian frowned.

Peng Jin waved his hand casually,

“Brother Hong, don’t boost the morale of others. What plan can Xu Gui have now? We’ve asked the boys to be prepared and to keep an eye on the entrance of his stronghold. We’ll be able to detect any movements immediately. Could it be that he can sneak attack us without anyone knowing?”

Swish swish!

However, just as he finished speaking, there was a commotion outside the tent.

“Someone is coming in from the rear!”

“Enemy attack!” “Enemy attack!”

“Who is it? How many people are there?!”

Everyone’s expressions changed as they hurriedly left the tent.

A wave of enemies barged in from their rear without any warning and were charging around the camp, setting fire to the tents.

The sentries at the back of the camp had been quietly removed without any warning.

Because most of the Tiger Head Mountain lackeys were paying attention to the front, they were immediately caught off guard when they were attacked from their butts.

Fortunately, in order to attack at any time, the Tiger Head Mountain people did not sleep. Their weapons were all on them, so they were not unguarded, and did not result in an immediate rout.

However, the Tiger Head’s goal was to attack and support Zhou Jing. They had not been told by their leader that they had to guard against the possibility of being attacked tonight, so they were not mentally prepared.

Moreover, they could not see their opponents clearly in the darkness, so everyone panicked.

Their group of more than 2,000 people were indiscriminately attacked. Some screamed and ran, while others fought back. Without command, they fought for themselves. The bandits of Tiger Head Mountain rarely trained, and their military training was not as good as that of the proper military. Once they fell into chaos, they were like headless flies.

ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ꜰʀᴇᴇᴡᴇʙɴ(ᴏ)ᴠᴇʟ.ᴄoᴍ ᴏɴʟʏ.

Peng Jin and the others were born in the wilderness and had never learned any military tactics in detail. Their fortifications, sentry arrangements, and other military matters used were all quite simple. As soon as they were attacked, their shortcomings were exposed, and they were flustered.

“They’re from Yellow Pond Mountain? Where did they come from?!”

Peng Jin’s expression changed.

Guo Haishen shouted decisively, “They must have taken a shortcut! Forget about everything else. Let’s gather our troops and reduce the chaos first. Don’t let these people continue to kill our men!”

Hearing this, everyone hurriedly took action. They shouted loudly and gathered the chaotic troops.

However, before the people of Tiger Head Mountain could adjust, the door of the Yellow Mountain branch base in front of them creaked open.

Rumble—

Dense footsteps sounded as two to three thousand more Yellow Mountain Bandits poured out, charging towards the Tiger Head Mountain camp.

“Charge with me!”

Yu Zhen shouted excitedly. He held a single saber in his hand and rushed to the front.

He was one of the leaders of Yellow Pond Mountain, a butcher by profession. His moniker was “Ox Slinger”, and he specialized in strength.

Seeing this, the bandits of Tiger Head Mountain immediately lost it.

“Don’t panic! Form up and face the attack!”

Seeing that the situation was not good, Peng Jin and the other leaders had no choice but to divert their attention to deal with it. After a series of shouts, they finally managed to organize a sparse number of people amidst the chaos to resist the attack of the enemy.

Not long after, the 2,000 to 3,000 Yellow Mountain bandits charged into the Tiger Head Mountain camp from the front.

“Kill!”

Battle cries shook the sky.

The two sides suddenly engaged in a fierce battle.

The Tiger Head Mountain troops were surrounded by two waves of enemy troops. Although they did not collapse at once, they were still in a sorry state. They subconsciously shrank their formation as they faced the enemy head-on. From the looks of it, their situation was critical.

“Hahaha, little ones, follow me!”

Yu Zhen laughed crazily and slashed down two lackeys as he shouted excitedly.

Fang Zhen was the closest to him. When he noticed the enemy leader, he immediately shouted,

“Bastard, I’ll teach you a lesson!”

With that, he flew up and smashed a few enemies with his iron-head staff before charging straight at Yu Zhen.

“Good!” Yu Zhen did not recognize Fang Zhen. He was fearless and fought back.

The two of them quickly approached and quickly fought. Clashing sounds of metal could be constantly heard as their duel formed a small bubble on its own.

The blade and staff slashed back and forth, producing a loud bang and shaking the ground with each hit.

“This man is unfamiliar, but he is so strong!”

Yu Zhen’s expression quickly changed as his arm went numb.

On the other side, Hong Dingxian was leading people to intercept the enemies attacking the camp from behind. He also discovered a familiar mountain leader, Tang Guang, the “Four Handed Arhat”.
