Muchuan squinted his eyes, feeling a little surprised at the moment.
The opponent did have 5,000 people, but they were not regular troops. They were all dressed in a mess and looked more like bandits and robbers.
Is it possible that these robbers covet the wealth of the envoys, so they boldly robbed the wealth?
Muchuan felt a little incredible when he thought of this.
You know, no matter how big the bandits are, they would not dare to provoke them when faced with officers and soldiers.
Not to mention that he and his team are official personnel of the Tang Dynasty, who are responsible for the mission of the Tang Emperor.
Therefore, Muchuan felt that all this was a bit unrealistic.
After careful observation, Muchuan discovered the clues.
In addition to the bandits and robbers, Muchuan also saw a group of people.
The number is quite rare, only about a few dozen people, but they are all full of energy, and at first glance they are the masters among the masters.
Such a master, no matter how hard you pull him out, would not be willing to associate with bandits and the like.
The person at the head is even more noble.
This nobility is not fake, it is clearly a temperament that can only be cultivated by those who have been in high positions all year round.
Muchuan squinted harder. While his eyes were sore, his vision also became stronger.
This person's appearance gradually became clearer.
After seeing it completely, Muchuan couldn't help but be surprised.
The appearance of this man was actually 70% similar to that of the King of Silla who was killed by Xiaoying.
In an instant, a suspicion came to mind.
Maybe this person is the brother of the old King of Silla, right?
Thinking of this, Muchuan quickly observed the prince's men.
As expected, most of these people were the confidants of the princes in the past.
Muchuan had generally seen him when he was disguised as Eunuch Jiang that day.
I see.
Muchuan jumped down from the tree trunk. He already had a close guess as to the origin of the matter.
Although I don’t know who this prince is and what power he once had.
But after Kim Sung-il takes office, he will definitely take back his power, and naturally he will touch the prince's cake.
I guess one of the prince's men contacted the prince and informed him of their findings.
This prince is not a stupid person. He will naturally want to make great profits from the chaos.
As for why the prince attacked the envoys?
Muchuan boldly concluded that in fact, the target of this group of people was himself, and the envoys were just casualties.
At least Muchuan was a little unsure about why the prince wanted his own head.
In short, in the process of thinking, the repair time also passed.
"Master, it's time to set off."
Muchuan came back to his senses, nodded, and didn't think about it anymore.
No matter what the reason was, the prince himself needed to be killed anyway.
After recharging their energy, the Raiders became much more energetic.
This has something to do with rest, but the most important thing is that the temperature here is much lower.
Seeing that the temperature was about to drop, Muchuan did not dare to delay.
After all, if the two groups of people at the entrance and exit merged, the envoy group would be in danger.
Moving quickly, the raiding party soon saw the army's figure in their field of vision.
"What! It's actually a group of robbers!"
When they saw the costumes of the army clearly, everyone in the raiding team looked shocked.
Their reaction was the same as Muchuan's at the beginning, they couldn't understand why the bandits would take such a risk to deal with the envoys.
Muchuan hid behind the burnt wood and whispered to the crowd: "Everyone, the bandit army is powerful. If we fight against it head-on, we will surely die."
Everyone listened with serious faces.
They also knew very well that the dozens of times difference in numbers could not be made up by relying on momentum.
"You rush out in a moment, shoot a few arrows, and then run deep into the forest."
"When the other party sees someone alive, they will definitely send a large force to follow."
"When the time comes, I will find an opportunity to assassinate their leader."
After listening to Muchuan's story, everyone was filled with panic.
"Master, are you going to put yourself in danger? This is absolutely not allowed. Let me go."
"Yes, Brother Mu, if something happens to you, the envoy team will really be hopeless."
"I hope you will change your mind!" x56
Seeing everyone vying to be the assassin, Muchuan felt relieved and a little moved at the same time.
These are the real soldiers. They know that this is a fatal mission, but no one is afraid.
Muchuan shook his head and said: "Don't fight anymore. Since I want to do this, I am sure of getting out unscathed."
Everyone thought Muchuan was lying.
After all, it is simply impossible for a person to join the army and escape unscathed.
"Everyone! Please be quiet!"
Muchuan sighed helplessly.
He understood that if he didn't show his hands, these people might not let him go no matter what.
Muchuan glanced around and saw a tree trunk as thick as a person's waist.
Then Muchuan walked over and lifted the tree trunk with just one hand.
This move naturally shocked everyone present, including Xue Rengui.
Although he knew that Muchuan was very skilled, he didn't know that Muchuan actually had such magical power.
In ancient times, there were overlords who raised cauldrons, but now there are champions who resist trees.
Xue Rengui swallowed his saliva and said: "Master, your subordinates who are born with supernatural powers have long known that no matter how powerful they are, they will still find it difficult to survive when surrounded by a large army."
Muchuan shrugged, threw the tree trunk away, and then jumped onto the thrown tree trunk like a gust of wind.
In the eyes of everyone, Muchuan seemed to flicker for a moment, then appeared on the tree trunk, then flickered again, and then appeared in front of them again.
"How about it? I have the ability to escape unscathed now, right?"
Muchuan smiled bitterly at everyone.
To be honest, Muchuan didn't want to reveal too much of his strength.
After all, he still understands the principle of shooting the first bird.
However, the current situation is special and it would be impossible for Muchuan not to show some strength.
Another point is that Muchuan has already planned to recruit all those present under his wing.
These people are all extremely skilled, and most importantly, have extremely strong willpower, making them suitable to be the cornerstone of special forces.
"Your Excellency is truly a man of God!"
After holding it in for a long time, everyone could only say this sentence of exclamation.
In short, the strategy can finally be implemented.
Muchuan separated from the surprise attack team and gradually approached the army's position under the cover of the charred wood.
At this time, the prince and his group were also ready to take action.
Now that the temperature has dropped, the horses can tolerate the high temperature, and the army can carry out mopping up operations.
"One-eyed dragon, it's almost time." The prince glanced at the one-eyed dragon.
The one-eyed dragon nodded and was about to issue an order.
At this time, dozens of bows and arrows suddenly shot out.
The one-eyed dragon and the prince are surrounded by masters, but this method of stabbing people in the dark is ineffective.
This first round of hidden shots only injured a few soldiers.
"Damn it! These Tang people are really not dead yet!"
The prince said angrily: "One-eyed dragon, what are you doing standing still? Chase me!"
Hearing this, the one-eyed dragon also had a dark face and ordered the whole army to catch up.
He almost got shot in the head just now, and now he wants to skin and remove the bones of everyone on the Raiders.
