"Find it quickly! Where did the shooting happen!" the chubby boy's shrill voice rang out, and everyone began to carefully search for the source of the shooting.

Meanwhile, more than a kilometer away, several people were lying there motionless, watching the situation on the other side.

"Boss, we've completed our mission, shouldn't we be leaving now?" Billy asked anxiously.

Although they are all top-notch mercenaries, the enemy is a camp of thousands of people. If they really launch a large-scale manhunt, they won't be able to escape!

"Not yet, we have to lure them to the Yun family's position! That way they'll start fighting! What we're doing now is useless!" Scorpion knew very well that although he had shot off the hat of that important figure, such a person would easily realize what was going on if he thought about it carefully. So he had to let his men fight each other before a real conflict could break out.

"What do we do now?" one of the team members asked.

“Let’s move to another spot and shoot a few more ordinary soldiers! Let’s lure them out!” Scorpion said.

Billy and another teammate wanted to object, but they didn't say anything. On the way here, they had already experienced Scorpion's power and knew that he was a truly ruthless person. They dared not resist.

So the group quietly moved to a different location, but in reality, only Scorpion was truly capable of firing at that distance; the others were merely there to protect him.

In the next ten minutes, Scorpion shot and killed two ordinary soldiers, which also allowed Guo Yuanchao's men to find the approximate location.

"Sir, the attackers opened fire from the outside, and they just killed two more of our men! Now, the men below are asking if we should launch an attack and search the area?" the chubby man said as he stepped into the bunker.

"Send out a company to search and find these rats!" Although Guo Yuanchao was almost blown in the head, he showed no signs of panic and calmly issued orders.

"Yes, sir!" The chubby boy went out to relay the order. Guo Yuanchao also came out of the bunker, but he didn't go back up into the trench. Instead, he stood inside the trench, holding binoculars and watching his men launch an attack to search for the enemy.

When Scorpion saw that the enemy had sent out a search force, he knew that his mission was already half completed. He immediately began a tactical retreat, leaving obvious traces for the search force behind him.

Occasionally, a few booby traps would be left behind, causing a little trouble for the searching troops.

This drew the search party towards the Yun family's front line. Meanwhile, to their north, Lei Zhan's squad was also rapidly advancing towards the battle zone.

"Captain, something's wrong! There's gunfire ahead! And explosions!" The scout returned and reported to Lei Zhan.

"I heard it. They're about three kilometers away from us. Can you tell who they are?" Lei Zhan asked.

“We can only see that Guo Yuanchao’s troops seem to be chasing the enemy, but we can’t see who they are chasing. However, they are retreating towards the Yun family’s direction. Could it be the Yun family’s people?” said Wang Quan, the vanguard.

"It shouldn't be them. Based on their behavior recently, the Yun family doesn't seem to have any intention of starting a war. It shouldn't be them," Lei Zhan said.

When the brigade commander analyzed battlefield intelligence, Lei Zhan, as the captain, had heard it. Although Guo Yuanchao had a strong desire to attack, the Yun family's response was very passive, and they had no intention of fighting at all. So it was highly likely that he was not from the Yun family.

"Could there be a third party interfering in the operation?" Wang Quan asked with some doubt.

"It's too early to say. Let's get a little closer and do some reconnaissance!" Lei Zhan said.

"No, Captain! The Guo family's troops have a very large search area. One of their companies is advancing along a one-kilometer-long search line. We can't get any closer; we'll be easily discovered, and they might draw our fire in our direction!" Wang Quan said.

"Then let's follow the Guo family's group and see what's going on!" Lei Zhan said.

"But..." Wang Quan wanted to try to persuade him further, but Lei Zhan stopped him.

"We're here to scout the enemy's situation. If the two sides clash, we need to know why!" Lei Zhan said.

So the four men formed a battle formation and continued to scout ahead, soon falling behind Guo's troops by about a mile.

In less than thirty minutes, Lei Zhan realized that someone was drawing Guo's troops toward Yun's front line. They were now in Yun's territory, and their defensive line was less than five kilometers ahead.

"What's wrong with the captain?" Wang Quan asked, gathering around Lei Zhan after seeing his gesture.

"We can't go any further. We'll be at the Yun family's defenses soon. We need to get away from the Guo family's forces and flank them. I'm afraid there might be an ambush ahead!" Lei Zhan said.

Lei Zhan then led his team to retreat a short distance and continued advancing about three kilometers northward toward the Yun family's battle line.

However, by the time they found a good observation position, the Guo family's search force had already clashed with the Yun family's search force!

It turned out that Scorpion had his men slowly lure the Guo family's troops toward the Yun family's defensive line, while he himself quickly ran to the Yun family's battle line and sniped a few Yun family soldiers. After the Yun family dispatched a search party, he led the search party back the way they came.

Soon, an encounter broke out, with a company from the Guo family and a platoon from the Yun family meeting about four kilometers from the Yun family's defensive line.

Due to the huge disparity in numbers, the Yun family quickly found themselves on the defensive and had to use the radio to request reinforcements from their own troops behind them.

Upon hearing that his own troops had been attacked, a captain who had been bored on the Yun family's front lines for a long time led more than a hundred people to reinforce them.

Scorpion had already led his team to retreat rapidly southwards after the two sides clashed.

If you look down from high above, you'll see four groups of people distributed in a north-south direction, with Lei Zhan and his team at the northernmost point observing the battle through binoculars.

More than two hundred soldiers from the Yun and Guo armies were firing at each other in the middle!

Three kilometers to the south, Scorpion and several of his men were also observing the battle between the Yun and Guo families through binoculars.

"How come these guys are so weak? I feel like our small squad could wipe out all two hundred-plus people on both sides! We've been fighting for ten minutes and only a few have died? How long will this go on?" one of Scorpion's henchmen complained.

"Why don't you give it a try?" Scorpion suddenly said.

"Captain, you're joking! I'm not stupid. I don't do things without a benefit!" the team member said to Scorpion with an awkward smile.
