Chapter 1533: Sneak Attack

In a reconnaissance mission deep behind enemy lines, Liao Hua encountered an unprecedented crisis—a carefully planned sneak attack.

That day, the sky was overcast with thick clouds, and Liao Hua was dressed in plain clothes, leading only a few dozen elite soldiers, silently crossing the Wei border, with the purpose of investigating the latest deployment of the Wei army and collecting intelligence for the upcoming great battle. Their marching route was extremely hidden, avoiding all known Wei army sentry posts; they originally thought this trip would definitely be able to complete the mission smoothly, but unexpectedly, a conspiracy against them had already quietly spread.

Night fell, and the group came to the edge of a dense forest; the surroundings were so quiet that only the rustling of wind blowing through tree leaves could be heard. Liao Hua felt uneasy in his heart; years of battlefield experience told him that beneath the calm often hid unpredictable dangers. He signaled for the team to stop, and he himself quietly went forward, utilizing the dense trees as cover, carefully observing the surroundings. Just at this moment, a faint sound of metal collision broke the tranquility; Liao Hua's heart tightened, and he immediately realized that they had been surrounded. ===== CHAPTER 1534 =====
