The other two groups also came there. Sheng Shan Lang saw the marks on the ground and clicked his tongue. "So they're coming from this direction, huh?"
"Did the villagers said nothing?"
"They only know that the bandits are coming but not entirely sure which direction they came from." Sheng Shan Lang had asked them, but these bandits came when they were busy on the field and so suddenly.
When they had taken everything, it was a mess, so they didn't see for sure which direction these bandits took.
"They're really inattentive." Nan Luo was speechless.
"Yeah." Sheng Shan Lang couldn't really blame them. He had lived in the village and had experienced these bandits attack when he was young back then. At that time, he saw the terror on the villagers' eyes when they saw the bandits.
And these bandits would also run around the village before truly leaving, making them unsure where they were going.
When he was tracking the bandits around his village, he took a long time.
It was because these bandits loved to run around and made a lot of troubles. But it was also because of this habit that he managed to track down their activities and followed them secretly.
Unfortunately, he couldn't always do this trick. There were some people who were smart enough not to be fooled.
"I also found some horse trails on the other direction, but it's circling around and seemed to be made in order to confuse us." Long Qian Xing pointed to the direction where he went not long ago.
"Have you checked everything?"
"I'm not an impulsive person, First Young Commander Feng." Long Qian Xing looked at Feng Ao Si and smiled. Since he said that, it meant he had already checked and determined that the marks were only circling around.
No matter what, he had already stayed on the battlefield for so many years and had knowledge in reconnaissance.
Feng Ao Si nodded dully. "Yes, Young Commander Long." freёwebnoѵel.com
"In that case, we're going to follow these horse steps?" Nan Luo asked.
"I can't really see anything." Feng Ao Si blinked his eyes.
"…The marks are obviously on the ground."
"I mean, I don't know how to determine where they come from with these faint marks." Feng Ao Si blushed in embarrassment.
Sheng Shan Lang was speechless and looked at the obvious mark on the ground. At this moment, he did feel that there was something strange. "Wait a moment, based on their direction, they might be going a bit deeper into the forest."
If the bandits lived in the middle of thick forest, it would be impossible for them to capture them all easily.
"It'll be hard to bring cavalry there, but infantry should be possible. Are your soldiers trained to fight against bandits?" Sheng Shan Lang turned his head to look at Long Qian Xing.
