Battle for Northern Frontier: The game begins with the grassland woman buying him.
Chapter 35: Ambush in the Canyon
"Just tell me what to do, I don't want to worry about anything else."
Bai Zhanqiu chuckled.
"You really should use your brain. Some things can't be solved with force alone. But I won't force you on this. Let's finish this mission first and then talk about other things."
Bai Zhanqiu then put down his folding fan, took out a map, placed it on the table, and pointed to a place.
"Stone City has two leaders who control the grassland tribes. One of them will be returning from here today. You need to take men to ambush them."
Su Zhan felt that this matter was not difficult. He guessed that Bai Zhanqiu wanted to use him as a sharp knife to cut through the tough skin of the grassland people. The toughest part of them was their two brothers. After killing one of the brothers, Su Zhan would probably have to take care of the other one.
However, since Su Zhan had already agreed to Bai Zhanqiu's request, he wouldn't refuse, so he nodded.
"Okay, I'll take care of the time, place, and people. You don't need to worry about anything else."
Bai Zhanqiu smiled faintly.
"Great! But the people you brought this time aren't from our Raptors Gang. They can't possibly know that the Raptors Gang was behind this, so if you fail, it's none of the Raptors Gang's business."
Su Zhan nodded. He understood. This kid really had a good idea. If it succeeded, the Stone City grassland people would suffer heavy losses. If it failed, it wouldn't have anything to do with his Fierce Dragon Gang.
But there's no such thing as a free lunch.
Su Zhan felt that even if this plan failed, he would eventually have to drag the Fierce Dragon Gang down with him.
If this goes through, the Raptors will inevitably be the first to suffer.
Although Bai Zhanqiu's words sounded reasonable, the reality was probably not that simple. However, Su Zhan didn't care. He only needed to do what Bai Zhanqiu arranged, and he didn't need to think about anything else.
"I understand, just hand the person over to me."
Su Zhan picked up the map and then stood up.
"Go ahead, everyone's waiting for you down there."
Su Zhan nodded and went downstairs with the map.
Bai Zhanqiu watched Su Zhan's retreating figure, smiled faintly, and murmured to himself.
"The show is finally about to begin. I wonder if this knife will surprise me. Brother, we've been waiting for this moment for too long."
Su Zhan took the map and went downstairs. The area downstairs was still bustling with people, and he didn't know where the people Bai Zhanqiu had arranged for him were.
As soon as Su Zhan came downstairs, a strong and muscular man walked towards him, then stood in front of him and bowed respectfully.
"Master Su, my name is Xu Da, and everyone is ready."
Su Zhan nodded
"Let's go then."
As Su Zhan spoke, he walked directly towards the door. Xu Da followed Su Zhan outside. Su Zhan was wondering where everyone was when suddenly, everyone in the teahouse started moving.
The guests who had been bustling about on the first floor all started moving and then followed Su Zhan out.
The teahouse, which had been bustling just moments before, was now completely empty. Su Zhan went outside, and the burly man followed behind him.
Those who came out of the teahouse did not follow Su Zhan and Xu Da, and then disappeared into the bustling crowd.
Their figures were very ordinary, just like those in the teahouse, inconspicuous. But Su Zhan knew that they were all experts, and their ability to hide their identities was truly remarkable.
Even Su Zhan hadn't noticed them until they got up from the teahouse, when they realized these people were no ordinary individuals.
Moreover, the fact that they disappeared into the street instantly after leaving the teahouse shows that these people were indeed well-trained.
Since such a capable person is going with Su Zhan, Su Zhan is even more confident.
After Su Zhan and Xu Da left the teahouse, the burly man asked Su Zhan to wait a moment. Then he led over two horses, and the two of them rode off towards the outskirts of the city.
As for those people who just came out of the teahouse, they have vanished without a trace.
However, Su Zhan had a feeling that there were many people moving along with him in the crowd behind him, and it seemed that they were all going with him.
Su Zhan didn't bother with them. Since they were all going with him, there was no need to worry about them.
Moreover, Su Zhan also knew that although he and his team were fighting together in this battle, they seemed to have their own leader, namely Xu Da.
As for Su Zhan, he was just someone who led them there.
Su Zhan didn't know exactly how to fight this battle, but he felt he should just follow his own plan and not worry about anything else.
Ten miles north of the city, Su Zhan took out a map and examined it carefully. Then he spurred his horse and galloped until it was almost dark before finally reaching the place marked on the map.
This place is more than 30 miles away from Stone City. In front of us is a canyon that leads to the grassland further north. The place that Bai Zhanqiu marked is the entrance to that canyon.
As soon as Su Zhan and Xu Da stopped, the sound of horses' hooves came from behind them. A large group of more than 30 men had arrived.
Su Zhan recognized them as the men who had come out of the teahouse with him. These men were all burly and strong, all martial artists, and looked formidable. They were also well-trained, each carrying a long sword and a bow and arrow on their backs.
That long sword wasn't the standard design of the grassland people, nor was it the standard design of the Great Wu people; no one knew where it came from.
Xu Da looked at Su Zhan.
"Master Su, there are more than 20 people in total. Among them, there are more than 10 grassland people and a few martial arts people."
Su Zhan nodded, and then arranged for everyone to ambush.
……
Night fell over the canyon, which was called Black Wind Canyon. The steep cliffs on both sides were menacing and terrifying in the darkness, squeezing the narrow ancient path into only one lane. The fierce mountain wind howled through the canyon, blowing sand and stones around and also covering up the slightest movement on the cliffs.
Su Zhan lay prone behind a boulder, his eyes sharp as an eagle's, fixed on the direction of the valley entrance. Around him lay more than 30 strong scouts, all handpicked by Bai Zhanqiu, skilled fighters who dared to fight. At this moment, everyone held their breath, gripping their broadswords tightly, and the air was filled with a heavy killing intent.
"They're here."
Su Zhan spoke in a low voice, his voice clearly reaching everyone's ears. At the entrance of the valley, the flickering torches, accompanied by the sound of hooves and shouts, indicated that a group of about 20 grassland cavalrymen were slowly entering the valley.
They were dressed in gleaming leather armor and carried curved knives at their waists; they were the elite squad of the Agada tribe, and the intelligence was exactly as Bai Zhanqiu had described.
The grassland people in that small group didn't notice Su Zhan and his group's movements at all, and continued walking towards the valley entrance step by step.
Xu Da said to Su Zhan in a deep voice.
"Master Su, the one leading the group is one of the leaders of the Agada tribe, named Galatu."
Su Zhan nodded.
"Archers, prepare!"
At Su Zhan's command, everyone drew their bows and aimed at the grassland people below.
They all waited quietly for Su Zhan's order, and Su Zhan was also waiting for them to get a little closer.
