Chapter 1073: Chapter 1073: Midnight Raid

At this moment, Dragon City.

Wang Yun, leading the soldiers of the Jade Cauldron Sect, did not attack Dragon City again.

Because their Thunder Chasing Arrow Feathers were completely depleted.

Although the Battle Eagle Squad without arrow feathers was also strong in close combat, such battles were not their forte, and forcing a battle would likely increase the casualties of his brothers.

Wang Yun was unwilling to do that; he would rather wait an extra day than let his brothers die.

Therefore, after repelling the Demon Cultivators of Red Soul Hall, he set up camp ten thousand miles outside Dragon City without continuing the attack.

This move naturally aroused suspicion from the Demon Cultivators’ War Department inside Dragon City.

"General Qin, it seems like these guys from the Jade Cauldron Sect are up to something. Should we counterattack?"

"According to the informants, they seem to have run out of powerful arrows. Now is our best chance to counterattack."

Within the grand army of Demon Cultivators of Red Soul Hall, a deputy general named Zhang Shen spoke to Qin Ye.

Upon hearing this, Qin Ye frowned deeply, unable to decide for a moment.

They had been repeatedly defeated by the Jade Cauldron Sect, and the army had long lost their fighting spirit.

He was also somewhat fearful; if the Jade Cauldron Sect continued to attack, the city might soon be breached.

However, at this moment, the Jade Cauldron Sect unexpectedly stopped attacking and instead set up camp, showing no more movements.

This made him suspicious if the Jade Cauldron Sect was plotting some scheme.

"No, we’ve been chased and beaten for so long. They have the upper hand entirely. How could they run out of arrows? How can you believe such trivial news? It’s probably a ploy by the Jade Cauldron Sect, just waiting for us to fall for it."

"Order the brothers to rest well and prepare for the upcoming battle. I want to see what tricks these guys have up their sleeves."

Qin Ye spoke up immediately, issuing a military command.

"But now is indeed the best time to counterattack. If we miss this opportunity and their arrows arrive, we might be in danger."

Zhang Shen was still somewhat reluctant, expressing his thoughts to Qin Ye.

"No more on this matter. I am the General, and you are just a deputy. Follow the orders!"

"You fool, I’ll say it again. The Jade Cauldron Sect is so cunning, how could you have found out they have no arrows? This is definitely their plot. If I fall for it, won’t I appear as foolish as you?"

Looking at Zhang Shen, Qin Ye immediately started to scold him.

This made Zhang Shen’s face look very unpleasant. Being scolded by Qin Ye in front of so many brothers was truly a humiliation.

"Yes!"

However, facing Qin Ye’s scolding, Zhang Shen had no choice but to follow orders.

Although he agreed verbally, he was deeply resentful in his heart.

One must know, in terms of seniority in Red Soul Hall, Zhang Shen was considered a senior compared to Qin Ye.

It was just that Zhang Shen’s cultivation talent was stronger, so he became a deputy general later.

"If there’s nothing else, you may leave. I need to think carefully about how to resolve the current situation."

Qin Ye looked deeply at Zhang Shen, dismissing him to leave.

"I take my leave."

Zhang Shen said respectfully, but his eyes were filled with resentment.

In Zhang Shen’s view, Qin Ye’s unwillingness to listen to his advice was because he feared that if his suggestions achieved great merit in this battle, he might be reinstated as the General, which is why Qin Ye wouldn’t use his advice.

However, Zhang Shen was unwilling to sit and wait for death.

That night.

Zhang Shen privately gathered his loyal followers and led several troops to attack the camp of the Jade Cauldron Sect in the dead of night.

When Qin Ye received the news, it was already too late to stop him, as Zhang Shen had already led the troops to attack the Jade Cauldron Sect’s camp.

In this way, Qin Ye had no choice but to issue an attack order.

For he was left with two options: either to sit and wait for death or to cooperate with Zhang Shen in the attack.

If he chose to sit and wait, and Zhang Shen really made a lucky move and captured the Jade Cauldron Sect’s camp, he would have achieved great merit, and Qin Ye might have to relinquish his position as the General.

If Zhang Shen fell for the trap and was trapped or defeated by the Jade Cauldron Sect, the remaining soldiers in Dragon City would not be able to hold the city.

"Fool, such a fool! How could I have such a foolish deputy? I have no choice but to gamble once."

Cursing Zhang Shen while leading the soldiers inside Dragon City, Qin Ye followed behind Zhang Shen, attacking the camp of the Jade Cauldron Sect.

"Great, these guys really don’t have arrow feathers left! Brothers, kill, the glory is right in front of us."

Zhang Shen led Red Soul Hall’s army to charge towards the Jade Cauldron Sect’s camp, discovering that the opponent didn’t fire any arrows, seemingly completely unprepared for their night raid. Or possibly, indeed, the Jade Cauldron Sect’s soldiers had run out of arrows, causing the Demon Cultivators of Red Soul Hall to cheer with joy.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack, everyone prepare for combat."

When the grand army of Red Soul Hall had already charged into the camp, the soldiers of the Jade Cauldron Sect sounded the horn, seemingly truly unprepared for Red Soul Hall’s attack.

This made Zhang Shen extremely elated, already secretly thinking about the rewards and merits he would gain.

With such great merit, Qin Ye would inevitably be beneath him in the future.
