However, at the camp gate, three squads of soldiers, a total of fifteen men, were constantly patrolling, making it extremely difficult to bypass them and sneak in.

Four arrow towers were located at the four corners of the camp, each illuminated by torches. Connecting the four towers was the camp's wall, which was not high, only about five meters high. Although five meters was no problem for Chen Er and Zhang Liao, it greatly increased their risk of exposure during their climb.

Without using their [Martial Spirit] and [Martial Skill], they have no interest in being used as live targets for the Trapped Camp soldiers to practice archery.

It wouldn't work. They felt that the idea of ​​silently eliminating the soldiers on the watchtower in the dark was simply not going to work.

Zhang Liao and his men decided to try a different approach. Although visibility in the dark was limited to no more than fifty meters, their bows and arrows were formidable. While they might not be killed instantly if spotted, the danger was still considerable. With two soldiers on duty in the watchtower, eliminating them silently would be extremely difficult.

Most importantly, they couldn't actually kill the soldiers on duty; they could only render them unconscious. This constraint undoubtedly increased the difficulty.

They quickly ruled out this method; after much thought, they realized that they had no other option but to enter directly.

Entering from the front seems simpler than infiltrating through the arrow tower, but there are still unavoidable troubles. Fifteen men are patrolling back and forth, and there are three squads of soldiers directly in front. Each soldier looks energetic and doesn't seem to care that they are in the middle of nowhere; it's obvious this is an elite force.

For two living, breathing people to slip through the gaps between these three patrolling soldiers, unless they possessed the ability to become invisible, would be an impossible task. Moreover, and more importantly, they only had one chance.

They only have one chance. Gao Shun has already made the consequences of their failure very clear. As for asking Gao Shun to give them a second chance, not only would they be unable to ask, but even if they did, Gao Shun would probably not agree.

Everyone has their own principles. Gao Shun has already made it very clear. Chen Er and Zhang Liao are both principled people, and they are unwilling to ask for favors. Chen Er and Zhang Liao gradually realized what a difficult test this was.

The Trapped Camp truly lived up to its name! Three hundred local militiamen losing to such a group was absolutely no loss. The more you look at the details, the more you can see the discipline of an army. The fact that even Chen Er and Zhang Liao couldn't easily enter the Trapped Camp speaks volumes about the high level of discipline of its soldiers.

Chen Er could only sigh and say that the more elite the army, the more difficult it was to successfully infiltrate their camp. At least, Chen Er knew he didn't yet have a way to sneak in without alerting the soldiers patrolling the gate.

These fifteen men were no match for Chen Er and Zhang Liao. However, Gao Shun's mission for them was to sneak in and sabotage. Taking care of these fifteen men and rendering them incapable of resistance wouldn't be difficult, but how could the people on the watchtower remain undetected? If they did, the entire camp would be alerted, and what good would sabotage then?

Time was slowly passing; an hour had passed since Gao Shun and the others parted ways. Sunrise was still some time away. In the distance, a few wolf howls could be faintly heard. Hearing these howls, a thought flashed through Chen Er's mind—a rather insane one.

But besides this method, are there any other ways? If we can't come up with a solution soon, time will be up.

Although the mission failed, Gao Shun did not blame them at all. Although Gao Shun did not blame them on the surface, he probably thought in his heart that if they could not even handle such a small matter, they would not be able to accomplish anything great in the future.

Both of them are the kind of people who must win and never lose. Although they feel very bad about this happening to them, there is no other way to solve the current situation.

"I have a method that might work, but it's quite risky," Chen Er said to Zhang Liao. Although this method is dangerous, nothing ventured, nothing gained; no other method is as good as this one, so this is the only option for now.

"Brother, hurry up and tell me! You're making me anxious!" Zhang Liao said excitedly to Chen Er.

"Did you hear any strange sounds just now, like animal howls or something?" Chen Er wanted to see if Zhang Liao and he were on the same wavelength, so he didn't say it directly but let Zhang Liao guess.

"I don't think I heard what you said?" Zhang Liao paused, then said incredulously, "Brother, were you talking about wolf howls?"

Chen Er said, "Yes, it's the howl of wolves. My brilliant plan is inseparable from the howl of wolves."

Zhang Liao, somewhat confused, said, "Brother, I am foolish, please tell me directly."

Chen Er called Zhang Liao over and whispered in his ear.

After hearing Chen Er's plan, Zhang Liao gasped:

"That's certainly a good idea, but won't it cause trouble?"

"Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Do you have any other effective methods besides this one? Remember, we only have one chance."

Chen Er looked at Zhang Liao, his voice calm. The severity of this test was almost harsh.

"But brother, are you sure this method will work? Just as you said, we only have one chance." Zhang Liao was still somewhat hesitant.

He was incredibly brave, but he still felt this was too risky.

"Have you forgotten why the Trapped Camp came here?" Chen Er looked at Zhang Liao and smiled mysteriously.

Inspired by Chen Er's confidence, Zhang Liao also felt a surge of self-assurance. Finally, he nodded.

"Alright, since you've said so, I have no reason not to comply."

The elite troops of Bingzhou's army included the Trapped Camp. Since its name, whenever there was a martial arts performance in the army, the Trapped Camp would always achieve good results. Although the soldiers of the Trapped Camp were all from poor backgrounds, their discipline was absolutely excellent. In comparison, Dian Wei's Tiger and Leopard Camp was rubbish.

Dealing with such a disciplined army is not something that can be done with a few simple methods.

On this dark and windy night, Gao Shun stood in the darkness, as if he had merged with the night itself. Quite some time had passed since he gave orders to Chen Er and Zhang Liao, and so far, he had not heard any news about them.
