The two looked at each other.
It’s a perfect match for my major.
"No problem, perfect timing. Now that we have the cover of night, let's set off."
"You two be careful and stay safe. Just gather some information and get the general idea, don't do anything stupid. It's one thing if you end up in jail, but it's not worth it if you get beaten to death."
Beidou was still somewhat worried about Anxin's "intuition".
In response, the two left Beidou with only a dashing departing silhouette.
"Don't worry, boss. My wife is about to give birth, and I'm waiting to go back to Liyue Harbor to see the baby. I'll be careful."
"Me too. After we finish the mission and go back to Liyue, I'm going to marry Cuihua."
Beidou felt something was off about the two people's farewell words, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. She could only watch them leave.
She suddenly wondered if sending the two men to investigate was the right decision.
It’s weird.
She rarely regrets the decisions she makes.
------
Wen Chen and An Xin, relying on their observations during several visits to the residence and their rich experience, managed to bypass the security personnel.
They weren't so averse to the guards anymore, after all, they understood that the situation on Haizhi Island was indeed special.
The other party meant well.
On the way, while they were still in the Coral Palace controlled area and relatively safe, the two began to discuss their next course of action.
"Where are we going?"
An Xin asked Wen Chen a question.
"We happen to be wearing traditional clothes from Wanglong Village, so let's go take a look over there."
"Do we still have any remaining forces over there?"
"Even if we do, neither you nor I can get in touch with them. Just do it yourselves."
have to.
"How exactly should we proceed?"
"Tsk..."
Wen Chen hesitated for a moment.
He was also a little unsure.
"It's so late at night now, there probably aren't many people who can provide information, and both sides are on edge right now. We don't want to get any more of you or me in. Once the extremists are in, it's not easy for them to get out."
"Infiltrate."
"This... our boss just gave us instructions..."
“I know, but a general in the field may disobey the emperor’s orders. In the current situation, it’s not easy to get information. If we don’t infiltrate deep into the heart of the territory, we’re afraid we’ll find nothing.”
What if the boss acts quickly and we have more leverage to secure a few more machine tools for Liyue?
So, what do you say? Are you in or not?
Wen Chen looked at An Xin, his old partner, with anticipation.
as predicted.
"Damn, that's enough."
"Hey~"
He knew his old partner would agree.
On the way, they started chatting about their own family matters again.
What are Wenchen's plans for naming their child? How are Anxin's wedding plans going to be held?
They continued forward, approaching the "borderline" where the two sides were locked in a standoff.
The troop strength here has been significantly increased. The two men no longer chatted idly, but spoke in hushed tones, and used gestures to convey information when necessary.
Carefully avoiding the patrolling soldiers, the two successfully entered the territory of these "local conservatives".
Following the messy and complex footprints and tire tracks on the ground, they successfully found the main camp of these "rebels" around Wanglong Village.
Instead of going in directly, they observed from a distance first.
It was late at night, and only the large tent was still lit. There were some campfires around, but they weren't burning very brightly. Some soldiers patrolled back and forth with torches, but they didn't pass near the large tent.
This must be the location of the other side's leader.
The extremely poor lighting conditions in the camp also provided them with some convenience.
Before long, they discovered two loopholes in the defenses.
[Ha, as expected of these third-rate bastards; even the defenses of their headquarters are so lax.]
The two exchanged a few words in hushed tones, and then began to exploit these loopholes to infiltrate the other side's base.
During the process, he also made sure to eavesdrop on the other party's password to facilitate the operation.
Soon, they arrived near the large tent.
Anxin, with his keen hearing, was in charge of eavesdropping, while Wenchen was in charge of keeping watch.
"...Well, haven't made a decision yet? I have to remind you, your strength is inferior to those people from Coral Palace. The longer you drag this out, the more prepared they will be. In that case, you will all die."
【! 】
Anxin was slightly surprised.
Unexpectedly, I heard such explosive news as soon as I arrived.
This person keeps using the term "you all"... isn't he one of these extremists?
Who could that be?
Or is there a traitor within the Coral Palace?
Anxin is now on high alert, trying his best to hear what's going on.
Inside the tent at this moment.
The mysterious man, whose face was hidden by a mask, subtly curled the corner of his mouth.
√
He watched with great interest the conflicted expression on the face of this high-ranking member of the "local faction."
Ito, the local general dressed in samurai attire, hesitated for a moment.
“I’m worried about the Southern Cross fleet. They’re also highly decorated, and although they’re not many, they’re all elites. Plus, they have a good relationship with the Coral Palace. What if that damned Jiang Ming manages to persuade them to join us…”
"If they don't join in, you still can't beat them using the conventional tactics."
"..."
These words are indeed hurtful, but they are the truth.
"Your only way out now is to seize the opportunity, strike first, and take down Coral Palace before they can react. After that, everything will be much easier."
"..."
Ito remained silent.
Seeing that the other party was still hesitating, he decided to add some more ingredients.
What a coincidence! I was feeling sleepy when they delivered the pillow.
He quietly put his hands behind his back and made a gesture.
"Your troops are almost ready to move at any time, so why don't you dare to take action?"
At this moment, Wen Chen and An Xin, who were outside, were still unaware of anything and were eavesdropping.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded not far from them.
The voice made no attempt to conceal itself.
Wen Chen tensed up instantly, warily observing his surroundings. On the other hand, he patted An Xin on the shoulder, signaling to prepare to leave.
A figure gradually emerged from the air.
It was like a death warrant; the two of them looked as if they had seen a ghost, their hair standing on end.
How could this be...?
"Come on!"
Wen Chen didn't have time to hide or not, since they had already been exposed anyway, so he grabbed An Xin and left quickly.
"Hmph, want to run away?"
Two specially made blades were thrown out.
"careful!"
The two people inside the tent could clearly hear the noise outside.
"what sound?"
Ito's expression instantly tensed, and he placed his right hand on the hilt of his katana, ready to draw his sword and fight at any moment.
"Don't panic, they're just two little mice eavesdropping."
The mysterious man's expression beneath the mask also showed some confusion.
what happened?
Who was it in the end?
But in any case, he had to add the final touches.
"Well? Their spies have arrived, and your plan has been exposed. If you don't act now, are you sure Coral Palace will give you another chance?"
Ito's expression wasn't very good as he relaxed slightly.
