At such a juncture, everyone understood without the commander having to say it - they had walked into a trap!
Jiang Qiuyang gritted his teeth and cursed, "That bastard Xia Ying! Beast! How dare he deceive me like this?"
Fang Dongming had calmed down a bit by then and muttered, "This shouldn't have happened... We promised to restore his sight and even showed him hope by partially returning his vision. Plus, we fed him a poisonous pill that only we can neutralize... Unless he no longer wishes to live, I can't see why he would betray us..."
"Our intelligence was keeping an eye on Great Xia's activities, but they didn't notice any unusual movements... How could we have fallen into a trap? Could it be... that this ambush was set up the day this tunnel was dug? But how could they know that we were coming this way?" One of the generals next to Fang Dongming asked with a sorrowful face, "Commander, what should we do now?"
