155 Murderous Sounds!

“When I investigated this place yesterday, there was no such sentry post!”

As Wu Liu lay beside Lu Ze and looked at the two people who suddenly walked out of the stockade, he couldn’t help but frown and say to Lu Ze in a low voice, “What should we do now?!”

If this sentry continued to stay here, their subsequent arrangements would definitely be affected. This operation might even completely fail!

“Wait here. I’ll go take a look.” Lu Ze instructed Wu Liu and quickly retreated. From the other side, he quietly sneaked towards the sentry post where there were only two soldiers standing.

Lu Ze didn’t alarm the two soldiers. Instead, he circled around them and probed in the direction of the mountain stronghold. He waited patiently for about two hours until he confirmed the shift time at this sentry post. Then, he quickly yet carefully returned to Wu Liu and the others’ side.

“We’ll attack in four hours.” Lu Ze whispered his plan to Wu Liu and the others. “Leave the two soldiers to me later. As soon as I attack, you guys take action immediately!”

Wu Liu and the others nodded and agreed to Lu Ze’s suggestion.

Although it was four hours, in the snow, it felt like a year. At night, the snow that had stopped for most of the day began to fall again.

Perhaps it was because the weather was too cold and there seemed to be no other living creatures other than the wolves wandering in the forest, but when their camp didn’t send anyone else to change shifts, the two soldiers couldn’t take it anymore and ran back to the village.

Lu Ze waited in the distance and observed for another hour. Seeing that the door of the village was closed and no one came out, he turned around and returned to Wu Liu and the others’ side. He instructed in a low voice, “There’s no time to lose. Let’s do it!”

Because they had not been here for long, they didn’t investigate the village thoroughly!

Most importantly, the northern barbarians had just arrived, so there were many unknown factors!

Now that there was a chance to attack, Lu Ze was naturally unwilling to let it go. He decisively changed his plan and decided to attack now!

The prescription that Lin Suisui had concocted actually stimulated the wolves’ madness. Most importantly, this thing would make the wolves addicted to it.

In the beginning, only a little bit of the drug was scattered on the corpses they used to lure wolves along the way. Now, the last batch of corpses had been soaked in the large urn filled with potions from top to bottom!

At this moment, by using the assembled catapults to throw those large urns into the village, the tainted corpses would instantly make the surrounding wolves go crazy.

The northern barbarians were not afraid of the cold. In such cold weather, most of them were still in the courtyard of the village, chatting, drinking, and eating meat around the bonfire. Therefore, when the huge urn smashed down from the sky and landed in the crowd, no one thought about what it brought!

The northern barbarian’s first reaction was that someone had ambushed them!

They picked up their weapons and prepared for battle. Only then did they see that the corpses of their companions were scattered beside them. This sight immediately made the northern barbarian soldiers present unable to suppress their grief.

They wanted to rush out and fight to the death with the empire’s soldiers hiding outside!

However, outside the open gate, they didn’t see any opponents who wanted to fight them. Instead, a group of wild wolves with bloodshot eyes rushed towards them crazily!

After the corpse pieces were thrown, what was thrown next were jars of even more terrifying kerosene!

Most of the buildings in the village were made of wood, so when the kerosene touched those houses, they instantly burned!

In order to avoid being roasted, the northern barbarians, who originally thought that they could hide in the house, had no choice but to escape from the house in a sorry state and fight the wolves outside.

For a moment, the entire village was filled with screams.

Lu Ze and the others didn’t continue fighting. They changed places and smashed the last batch of kerosene into the stable where they had placed the horses!

Although the northern barbarians’ warhorses were strong, they still ran for their lives after encountering such a situation. The frightened horses rushed out of the stall and collided with the crowd and wolves…

Looking at the wolves that were still charging into the village, Lu Ze and the others didn’t want to fight anymore. They hurriedly threw down their cumbersome equipment and returned to the cave where the horses were stored. They rode their horses and disappeared into the snowy night without looking back.

Lin Suisui had been busy all day. At night, she stayed up late to check the gauze bandages that Mrs. Luo and the others had prepared. Seeing that there were no problems, she called over more than ten bold refugee women Qian He had found and taught them how to bandage the injured.

It was already midnight when she went back to sleep.

Therefore, she slept soundly.

When she woke up again, she was woken up by the commotion outside the carriage. Her first reaction was that the enemy had attacked again. She immediately put on her clothes and rushed towards the door of the carriage. Unexpectedly, someone outside the door happened to lift the curtain and enter. They were caught off guard and bumped into each other. Lin Suisui’s nose hit Lu Ze’s chest, and it immediately hurt so much that tears fell.

“When did you come back?!” Lin Suisui covered her nose. She was so surprised to see Lu Ze that she temporarily forgot about the pain in her nose.

“I just came back. I saw that you were sleeping, so I didn’t disturb you.” Lu Ze reached out and took Lin Suisui’s hand that was covering her nose. Then, he leaned closer to take a closer look and gently blew on it for her. With a smile, he said, “You look fine. It’s just a little red.”

“Why is it suddenly so noisy outside?!” Lin Suisui’s heart was in her throat. How could she have the time to care about such a trivial matter?

“The soldiers from the patrol camp have arrived. Not only did they come, but they also brought a lot of rations and weapons!” Lu Ze reached out and rubbed the bridge of Lin Suisui’s nose as he explained to her gently, “It’s fine. I burned down those northern barbarians’ stronghold. I also destroyed their horse shed and released the warhorses they raised inside.

“With those wolves attacking, it will take a few days before those northern barbarians can find trouble with us!”

At this point, Lu Ze couldn’t help but think of the potion that had made a great contribution this time. He explained the effect of the potion to Lin Suisui before saying, “If not for the potion you provided this time, our operation wouldn’t have gone so smoothly! Even if we could achieve the goal of luring the wolves to attack the village, they definitely wouldn’t have been able to achieve such terrifying lethality!”
