Chapter 393 A New Trap


    Marin fell silent as amb too. At the moment, the two girls had the same point of view. Both of them


    were of the impression that it was sufficient for the Crimson Dragon Group.


    "By the way, why did Rockye on the spur of the moment to carry out the Commander in Chief''s


    order this time? After all, he turned down the Commander in Chief once in public. ording to my


    perception of him, he would not have been amodating to be associated in this trouble quickly like


    a piece of cake, neither would he have given a whirl to the Commander in Chief''s order." Dunn uttered


    his bewilderment. Lack of confidence was written all over his rough face.


    "I am of the same opinion too. In fact, I asked him why, but he didn''t answer my query," Marin said,


    blinking. She didn''t understand how Rocky''s brain functioned.


    "We''d better ignore it. We could never establish a point of view of it correctly what Rocky Bai is


    cudgeling his brain." Isis kicked up a fuss despite the same perplexity in her mind. She was curious


    why Rocky came all of a sudden to carry out her father''s order, and if there was anything she didn''t


    have intelligence. With such reflections in her mind, she asked Marin, "Did Rocky give a hint of what he


    is going to do with those bonfires inside the pass? They look like a military disy."


    Marin shook her head in a dash.


    "Where is he now?" Isis looked around, but she could not trace Rocky anywhere.


    "I''m positive he''s resting on his oars somewhere," Marin answered as her drop-dead gorgeous face


    turned murky.


    "Commander Marin, I''m confident it''s unfair to speak ill of other people when he is absent." A voice


    came through just in time. It sounded both joking and sincere at the same time.


    By instinct, all the people present sought to the direction of the voice. They peered Rocky, who was


    riding Rubygon, stop in front of them. Then he bounced onto the ground and arrayed his eyes around


    everybody.


    "Since you haven''t done anything ill, you don''t require to get overwrought about being spoken evil of by


    anybody," Marin retorted, gazing at him with her big ring eyes.


    "Commander Marin, are you with no doubt I haven''t done anything evil? Have you failed to recall..."


    Rocky was reluctant, staring at Marin with his evil and as elegant as a picture eyes.


    Marin became absorbed in thought as shortly as her eyes met Rocky''s burning eyes. What had taken


    ce between her and Rocky in her room cropped up in her mind out of her control. When she


    and as lovely as a pie.


    Isis and others, specifically the soldiers, were all shell shocked to see Marin fall silent and blush all of a


    sudden. After all, she always had a glib tongue and acted undauntedly on the battlefield as an iron


    woman. The soldiers had never seen her being shy in this way. They looked at one another in


    astonishment and wondered if there was some secret between Rocky and Marin. If yes, it would be


    breaking news.


    When she gave an ear to Rocky''s odd words and saw Marin''s weird expressions, Isis could not help


    but feel an absence of conviction. Previously she had already discovered that Marin would conduct


    herself strangely every time Rocky was referred to, but she didn''t put that in mind. However, now she


    was beyond suspicion that something must have happened between Marin and Rocky, distinguishing


    by Rocky''s meaningful words. Therefore, she plotted to have a dialogue with Marin when the Wild


    Heaven Pass became out of harm''s way.


    While she was lost in thought, Rocky acquitted himself as if nothing had developed. He disengaged his


    sight from Marin andid his eyes on the pots and pans piled aside as well as some things else that


    could produce sounds. He strolled forward to pick up a few of them. When he knocked one on another,


    a tumultuous sound came through in a sh.


    "Wonderful! These props can absolutely be of assistance!" Rocky sighed. He could not help but


    gesture as if he was extremely well pleased with these articles. Then he turned around to say to Dunn


    and Marin, "Commander Dunn and Commander Marin, each of you, please take half the troops to


    make an ambush respectively at the two ends inside the pass. Every soldier takes one or two of such


    props. By the way, don''t fail to carry some bows and arrows. When the enemies invade the pass a


    whileter, you should hold on for my order. When I give the order, first of all, you shoot arrows for two


    rounds and then knock the props against each other as vehemently as you can."


    Then he turned his head to nce at Isis. "Deputy Commander in Chief, please keep an eye on the


    south gate. The antagonists may conceivably make a quick exit towards the south entrance. Your task


    is to stand guard over the south gate, restraining them from getting out through that gate," Rocky


    added. When he handed out the order, he looked just like a Commander in Chief.


    In the Crimson Dragon Group, maybe only Rocky, beside Lance, had the audacity to order Isis in this


    way.


    "Okay," Isis stated directly. She guessed she should not interrogate him since she had resolved to trust


    him, though she had no notion what he was going to do.


    "All right. Everybody, you may withdraw to implement your assignment now. It''s getting dark. I''m certain


    all the prevailing ten thousand troops of the Timber Deity Empire wille here. Very shortly, we will


    be cognizant whether or not we can safeguard Wild Heaven Pass sessfully!" Rocky suggested. His


    eyes were full of self-assurance.


    Very soon, Marin and Dunn respectively took half the troops, simultaneously with the strange props and


    bows and arrows, to go to the two ends of the Wild Heaven Pass. Since the pass had been built on the


    basis of a mountain between two cliffs, both ends of the pass were located at steep cliffs, where dense


    nts were avable. They were perfect ces for concealing people.


    Isis guarded the south gate. She informed the soldiers to close the gate tightly, and she sat outside the


    gate, cooling her heels for things to untangle. Squinting slightly, she talked under one''s breath to


    herself, "Rocky Bai, do not let me down. I beg of you!"


    At the same time, the word that a considerable number of troops of the Crimson Dragon Army withdrew


    from the south gate of the Wild Heaven Pass had already been reported by the scout of the Timber


    Deity Empire to their three Commanders. One of the three Commanders was Commander Zhou, who


    had hitherto failed to engross the Rough Slope because of the intervention of Rocky.


    This time, in order to attack the Wild Heaven Pass, the Timber Deity Empire had dispatched as many


    as thirty thousand troops, which was undoubtedly a reasonable move. The forces were driven by three


    Commanders who had the finest histories of service in the Timber Deity Empire.


    First of all, the three Commanders took the upper hand of the knowledge provided by their spy in the


    Crimson Dragon Army and attacked the Wild Heaven Pass at night under the nose of twenty thousand


    troops of the Crimson Dragon Army at the pass. As a result, the Crimson Dragon Army encountered


    significant losses, and the soldiers of the Timber Deity Empire took a grip of more advantages.


    After the sessful charge at night, the three Commanders had a sneaking suspicion that they would


    Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.


    be in a position to upy the Wild Heaven Pass in no time. To their thunderbolt, however, the


    defending troops at the Wild Heaven Pass were also led by an experienced and sophisticated Elite


    Commander from the Crimson Dragon Group. Due to his excellent tactics, the guarding forces had


    managed to thrust out all the troops of the Timber Deity Empire that assaulted them at night.


    At least the Crimson Dragon Army still held the Wild Heaven Pass in their hand despite the


    astronomical price they paid.


    It was precise because of their hard work that Isis had had the time to take troops here to lend a hand


    to them. She had safeguarded the Wild Heaven Pass in ce of Commander Cheng till now.


    Since she showed up at the Wild Heaven Pass, Isis had established an assortment of military arrays.


    As a result, the troops of the Timber Deity Empire had a turbulent time, without making any leap


    forward. Ill at ease, the three Commanders of the Timber Deity Empire had beaten their brains out to


    drive the Crimson Dragon Army to the wall. But of course, the Timber Deity Empire paid a massive


    price for that too. Almost twenty thousand troops were lost.


    Therefore, the three Commanders came into apromise that they had to seize the Wild Heaven


    Pass in the following round of attack. Otherwise, even if they could conquer it subsequently, they would


    not have adequate force to secure it.


    Such being the case, a substantial number of troops of the Crimson Dragon Army withdrawing from the


    Wild Heaven Pass was beyond the shadow of a doubt good news for the three Commanders. They


    considered that the Crimson Dragon Army could no longer defend the Wild Heaven Pass and was


    proposing to give it up.


    Of course, they had no notion that the withdrawal was, in fact, an borate trap.
