314 Trap (2/2)

Because they were retreating and heading towards a different place, there was a chance that they couldn't set up an ambush here. Ye Jiu shouldn't be able to predict them because they didn't see each other.

Soujin looked around. It was not impossible to put an ambush here, but the problem was they didn't know where Ye Jiu would appear and if he did, would their attack succeed? Glancing around, he finally nodded his head solemnly.

”I will stay behind to set up an ambush. All of you continue to the hill and set the headquarters,” Soujin answered.

Jun Hua didn't like the idea of ambush, but she nodded her head, ”I understand.”

In any case, even her tactics couldn't surprise Ye Jiu when they were facing each other on the battle. So, this time, she would try to bet with the idea of ambush. If he hadn't seen the soldiers, probably he would not be able to guess.

As Jun Hua and the others went on their way, Soujin led part of his soldiers for an ambush. He carefully selected a good place for the soldiers to hide and waited for Ye Jiu to appear on the way. On the side of Soujin, Lou stayed vigilant.

This battle was undoubtedly the hardest battle Soujin ever experience. Ye Jiu was such a peculiar opponent that made them couldn't predict his movement while he could tell their movement very clearly and made the precaution before the battle happened.

Hiding, Soujin waited for a few hours before he sensed that something was wrong. He hurriedly told his soldiers to prepare for a battle and moved to the side only to meet with Ye Jiu who had already standing there along with his soldiers.

”You're not that foolish too, General Soujin,” Ye Jiu said with a slight smile, ”But, it's already too late.”

Soujin drew his sword. His mind was in turmoil. How could Ye Jiu found that they were setting up an ambush here? Looking at the number of soldiers behind Ye Jiu, he knew that Ye Jiu had guessed correctly the number of soldiers he had here.

”How did you guess it?” Soujin asked in a rather cold tone.

”You wouldn't know even if I told you, General Soujin,” Ye Jiu smiled, ”This time, I would not fall for the same tactic anymore.”

”This time…?” Soujin couldn't remember meeting with Ye Jiu before aside from their battle starting a few weeks before. As for talking, he could only remember the taunt the other party said to him. Besides, with their difference in location, there was no chance for them to meet with each other in the past.

Ye Jiu smirked, ”Of course, you would not know because in your memory we hadn't met before.”

Soujin readied his sword. No matter what, he needed to get out from this trap.
