Occasionally, some of the men running through the muddy and slippery road would slip and fall.
At the moment, it would appear that the rain had started to get heavier.
The road through the valley was not too long and was only around 200 meters or so. By now, Chen Xiaolian who was leading his men forward had managed to catch sight of the rear of the enemy soldiers…
The enemy line was disorderly and their men formed a long line. Even the members of the regular army found it hard to maintain their formation.
In the darkness, Chen Xiaolian was vaguely able to see nearly half of the enemy soldiers… a doubt rose within his mind: Why haven’t they started fighting?
Things were too peaceful!
Their present location was very close to the mouth of the valley. That should be where Merlin had laid his ambush… besides, the time for the ambush to spring should have passed!
Yet, despite the disorderly manner of the enemy army, they did not appear to be suffering from an ambush.
