The pile of firewood was collected by the soldiers for making a fire, and each camp has two or three piles to ensure the fire burns until dawn.
Thankfully, they hid away, and soon after, the soldiers heard a rush of footsteps heading their way, mixed with the sound of hooves.
There were quite a few people coming, led by someone. But who were these people?
Before long, the footsteps paused, likely because the group realized this was a military camp and dared not act rashly, so they stopped.
Hong Dao guessed right, the group clearly didn't expect the person they were chasing to escape into a military camp. The person at the front quickly ran back to the leader and asked, "Company Commander, the scout's gone in, what should we do?"
Ah Tuo, sitting on horseback, frowned as he looked at the military camp ahead, but quickly issued an order, "Go in, drag the person out, then leave. These shepherds with lambs won't dare fight us head-on."
