Chen Chuan looked at the other Watchtower and saw the person there still standing, but with a stiff expression. He immediately knew that Ren Xiao had also succeeded on that side. He looked down from the watchtower, flashed the flashlight twice, and at the same time, Ren Xiao on the opposite Watchtower also sent a signal. Wei Chang'an and Cai Si had already sneaked close. Seeing that they had succeeded, they boldly climbed up and easily took care of the sentries at the two guard posts, one on the left and one on the right. Chen Chuan sensed something and glanced down, seeing a patrol team of two people with flashlights just rounding the corner from one side. Seeing them from above, he made a gesture downwards and flashed the flashlight twice to one side. Wei Chang'an immediately understood, ducked down, and disappeared from sight in an instant. After a while, the team reached the corner. Wei Chang'an suddenly emerged from the shadows, pinched the necks of the two people, and then carried them forward a few steps before throwing them aside after turning the corner. Chen Chuan thought, "Beautiful." At about the same time, the patrol on the other side was found by Cai Si and quickly eliminated. Chen Chuan could feel that the sentries here were not very vigilant, as if they were very lax. In fact, this was quite normal. Daily encounters in the wilderness involved firearms and crossbows, with little to no martial arts combat. As long as the camp entrance was well-guarded, it was almost impossible to sneak in from the heavily guarded outer traps without being discovered. Moreover, these people were bandits, not the Army , so they naturally didn't have that kind of strict discipline. After the patrols were dealt with, Wei Chang'an walked out and sent a signal to the outside with a flashlight, and the rest of the people waiting there also entered the camp through the main entrance. Chen Chuan then glanced around, seeing a modified rifle and a crossbow lying not far from the bandit corpses. After thinking about it, he picked up the rifle, checked it, and hung it on his back before climbing down from the Watchtower . Once on the ground, Ren Xiao walked over and said, "There were two people sleeping in the car, they've been taken care of." Chen Chuan nodded. He didn't expect anyone to be lying in the car beforehand, as it wasn't visible from the outside. He thought that Senior Brother Ren was indeed reliable. He thought for a moment, "Senior Brother Ren, I'll have to trouble you to take some people to watch the back." There was another road behind the camp. If they were attacked from the outside, these people might escape from there. He only felt reassured leaving it to Ren Xiao. Ren Xiao: "Leave it to me." After discussing it, he took two of the people Wei Chang'an brought and left the camp to block the bandits' escape route. After eliminating the outer sentry points, Chen Chuan had everyone spread out and began to enter the camp's interior. Although there were many old and new tents here, scattered far apart from each other, it was actually very simple to tell if there was anyone inside. Most of the occupied tents would have a lamp hanging inside, or at least a cable running into it.

Chen Chuan walked to the entrance of a barrack and immediately sensed three breathing sounds inside, with two of them whispering. After listening for a while, he realized they were just two lackeys, talking about how much they would get after this deal and where to go to have fun. Eight or nine out of ten sentences contained swear words, mixed with some incomprehensible slang, possibly the original Maka People language habits. He slowly lifted the tent flap and walked in. Because his steps were light and his movements were relaxed and natural, the people inside initially thought it was a companion walking in. By the time they clearly saw who it was and their faces showed horror, he was already in front of them. With a gentle press on their heads, the two of them silently fell backward. The last person in the tent was lying there, engrossed in reading a magazine with beautiful women, completely unaware of the commotion next to him. Chen Chuan walked over, flicked his foot, and lightly tapped the side of his head with his toe. The person's hands immediately loosened, and the magazine fell onto his face. Chen Chuan then walked out, casually heading towards another brightly lit tent. While walking, he could hear faint and subtle muffled groans and striking sounds from around him, indicating that the others were also taking action. At this moment, in a camp at the innermost part, a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged suddenly opened his eyes. He stood up, inserted a short stick into his back, and walked out holding a rolled-up whip in his right hand. Not far from him was the largest camp in the entire camp, where the leader "Desert Eagle" Mi Tai was discussing a translated telegram with his deputy "Poison Snake" You An . "The exchange delegation may leave tomorrow, so they want us to arrive at the rendezvous point tomorrow." You An was surprised: "Tomorrow? Wasn't the agreed date the day after tomorrow? Besides, aren't they being watched by the people from Yangzhi City ? Can they leave?" Mi Tai : "The telegram says that someone within the Makar has contacted a high-ranking official from Da Shun and is putting pressure on the Yangzhi City Government Affairs Hall . Bringing it forward a day shouldn't be difficult. If all goes well, we can leave with our brothers tomorrow to meet them." Saying this, he put down the telegram , "As long as we deliver the goods, we can gain honor and status with this contribution, and the brothers won't have to fight and risk their lives in the wilderness anymore." You An didn't think so, "Boss, it's the same everywhere, aren't we just being dogs for the people above? But at least they are of the same race, will they give us more meat to eat?" Mi Tai : "Don't be so pessimistic. If we can send the goods back, we will be heroes of the Maka People . As long as we have a reputation, they will treat us a little more politely." You An : "Here you are the boss, but you will be nothing when you go back." Mi Tai pointed to his chest and said in a deep voice: "I grew up in the wilderness. Very few people can live to my age. I can feel that if this continues, I don't know when I will die in a corner, dying without value, and no one will know. But after I go back, no matter what I do, it will be for my country. Even if I die, I can leave a name." You An : "Okay, I'll go. Since it's your decision, boss, then I will follow to the end. Who told you to save my life?" Mi Tai patted him on the shoulder, "Brother, get the things ready, just in case." You An "s eyes flickered, "Boss, are you wary of them going back on their word?" Mi Tai said in a deep voice: "In case they don't honor their promise, we still have something to threaten them with. Although it is unlikely that they will do this, we must be prepared." You An : "Don't worry, boss, the brothers have already prepared everything. But it's best not to get to that point, otherwise, even if you go back, boss, you will offend people." At this moment, the person guarding the camp entrance suddenly called out, "Who's there?" Mi Tai was very vigilant and immediately pulled out his gun. You An separated from him and walked to the door. He glanced out and saw a tall, middle-aged Maka People . He immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at the whip in the other person's hand and asked, "Qi Sai Du Ma , why are you out here?" Qi Sai looked outside, "Someone has entered the camp." Mi Tai was shocked. His eyes flickered back and forth. He was also very decisive and immediately took out a whistle and blew it hard. For a time, the entire camp was awakened. When Chen Chuan and the others heard the sharp whistle sounds coming from deeper within the camp, they immediately knew that the people inside had discovered them. Since they had already been alarmed, they stopped hiding and took out smoke grenades, throwing them towards the most central area of the camp. Immediately, clouds of smoke rose up within the camp. This stuff was very useful. Because they were suddenly attacked, and with their vision obscured, the bandits in the camp became chaotic due to panic. Knowing that they were under attack and that the enemy had already infiltrated the interior, but unable to figure out how many attackers there were, some bandits fearfully raised their guns and fired wildly, shouting loudly as if afraid that others wouldn't know where they were. Chen Chuan "s side didn't hold back and returned fire from all directions. Mi Tai heard the sound of the Da Tuo-style rifles and saw the relatively rare smoke grenades, he couldn't help but be shocked and anxious: "Could it be those grey dogs from Yangzhi City ? Have we been exposed?" You An was relatively calm and listened carefully: "At most five or six guns, it shouldn't be the Patrol Bureau . It might be people from a Commission Company . It looks like their style, they sneaked in without anyone noticing." Mi Tai cursed, "Commission Company ? Could it be the batch of goods we robbed last time?" You An said with a gloomy face: "I don't know, boss. I'll go check the back. We can't let anyone cut off our retreat." Mi Tai said okay and squeezed his shoulder heavily, "Brother, I'll leave the back to you!" You An immediately waved his hand and called a few people at the door to rush to the back. At this time, the middle-aged man named Qi Sai walked out step by step. Mi Tai saw him but didn't stop him. He admired and feared this Makar who had come to guide them in Martial Combat Skills . Outside, Luo Kaiyuan listened to the source of the shouts and gunshots, suddenly raised his gun, and pulled the trigger. A person immediately fell there. He quickly left his original position, pulled the bolt, ejected the shell, pushed the bullet into the chamber, and after a little identification, he shot again, and another person immediately fell there. Feng Qi had never used a gun, so he knew better and hid in a hidden corner, secretly shooting with a crossbow, so that whether he hit or not, he wouldn't expose himself. On Wei Chang'an "s side, he was an old hand. He found a place that was easy to cover himself, carefully searching for targets. His marksmanship was also good, as long as he fired, he would definitely hit. But at a certain moment, after firing another shot, he suddenly became alert. He rolled over and saw a whip shadow sweep through the place where he had been hiding. With a snap, it cracked the solid barrier. The force of the wind passing by his side made his skin faintly tingle. In the roll, he fired a shot back into the smoke, but there was no movement there. He squatted on the spot, holding the gun in both hands in front of him. He held it very steadily, his eyes focused and calm. After a few breaths, he suddenly tilted his head and fell to one side, while firing two shots in a row. Although he dodged quickly, a thin blood mark still appeared on his cheek, which was burning with pain. After rolling a circle, he dodged to the other side, dodging another whip shadow that swept over. He could be sure that he had hit the target just now, but the other party was fine, which meant that the person must be wearing protective gear . Just when he was feeling bad, the attack from the opposite side suddenly stopped. He looked up and could see a tall but not bloated figure. At this time, this person suddenly reached out and knocked away a crossbow bolt shot at his head. However, just as this person was about to continue walking towards Wei Chang'an , he suddenly stopped and looked in one direction. At the other end of the passage, Chen Chuan was walking over from there. While walking, he threw the rifle with empty bullets in his hand to the side, then took off the Snow Emperor Blade on his back, and inserted it into the ground. As he stepped forward, he slowly brought the blade out of its sheath.
