When Dream Clouds, Blood Robes, and the rest watched the people from the four sects gather with the trapped people from the city and left in a mighty wave, their expressions were incredibly sour.
This was especially so for Dream Clouds. Her entire plan had been broken by two unexpected accidents that happened in sequence, and she could not piece her plan together again.
The first was when Happy avoided Little Li Flying Dagger twice, trapping Dream Clouds in a very difficult situation, but that was not enough to stop Class One Hall’s plan.
But the system notification that came soon after caught her off guard.
Happy had received the title of a senior-rank captain beforehand and got himself a full unit of cavaliers. There were more than six hundred of them, and it was not possible for them to kill them all just because they wanted to.
It was precisely because of this that when Dream Clouds tried to gradually trap the Mu Clan, Chivalry Sect, Wind Assault Tower, as well as the Wind and Rain Alliance members in Aru City to be completely ruined because of this group of cavaliers.
As long as there were NPCs around the area, no one will dare to easily attack those with military titles.
This meant that if Class One Hall dared attack Happy, Silver Wolf, Thunderous Battle, Little North, Momo, Lin Xiao, Wind Void, Red Dust, and the rest of them who had military titles, they will be hunted down by the imperial court, and if one of them died, that was the end of their involvement in the event. They will even be locked in the imperial prison for three days.
Even if she had tens of thousands of men on their side, Dream Clouds did not dare act rashly and poke at this hornet’s nest.
She could not afford to waste that number of people.

Hall master, someone among us already investigated where they went.
One hour later, a Class One Hall higher up beside her received a messenger pigeon and quickly reported the situation.

Where are they?

That person spent some time in silence before he replied,
The person who sent the message said that once the Mu Clan members returned to the borders, all twenty thousand of them joined the battlefield. They headed to the direction of the Mongolian army, but we don’t know their specific direction.

Dream Clouds did not ask for the reason why she did not get their specific location.
The Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect elites were not easy to deal with. After all, they were from top-class sects. If they entered the vast plains at this moment, even if she used her toes to think, she could guess that they were avoiding the possible major operations from Class One Hall, and it was impossible for them to allow anyone from following them.

How cunning!
Blood Robes snorted before he gnashed his teeth together and gave an order.
Hall master, give the order. Immediately mobilize more men into the plains, and we’ll decide the victor among us at the plains!

Dream Clouds’ eyes lit up before she chuckled coldly.
Decide the victor among us? Do you think that Happy will give us the chance?


They have more than twenty thousand men among them. If they want to fight against us head on, they won’t have enough people on their side. But if they want to run, twenty thousand people will be too eye-catching. It will not be easy for them to move around with that number of people.


What. Exactly. Are you trying to imply?


Tonight, we’ll kill them all in one fell swoop!


Tonight?


That’s right.

Blood Robes’ lips curled into a cold sneer.

Hall master, have you forgotten that we still have a trump card hidden in Mu Clan?


Are you talking about…?
Dream Clouds’ eyes lit up.

Jade Lake’s Immortal. Happy’s university mate. She’s currently at the borders as well with that group of people.


Very good.

Dream Clouds had her spirits largely boosted. She said without hesitation,
Contact her immediately. Tell her that she is to constantly tell us every action from Mu Clan’s group, along with Happy’s every move.

Right when she finished speaking, Dream Clouds quickly sent a personal messenger pigeon to Barren Murderer and ordered him to immediately gather more people to enter the plains. They were to infiltrate the battlefield secretly from a remote place and prepare to surround Mu Clan, Chivalry Sect, Wind Assault Tower, as well as Wind and Rain Alliance’s elites.
[Be careful not to have any word of this leak out.]
[I know.]
Very soon, batches of Class One Hall members started entering the borders.
Since Class One Hall had always been the local lords of the north, once the news of Dream Clouds’ death spread out, their act of sending large batches of people into the plains did not stir up too many players’ attention.
But once these people entered the plains, very soon, they split into thousands of men per group and charged into the distance before they vanished from the people’s sights.

More than twenty thousand people stationed themselves a spot dozens of miles away from the Mongolian army, making themselves like a black mass on the land. They did not even dare breathe loudly.
No one ever thought this would happen.
Accurately speaking, it had been less than twenty-four hours since the two armies broke out into war. At most, the players only ever witnessed cavalier units that numbered to five thousand, but now, they had been brought to the depths of the enemy camp.
The black mass of tents at the horizon of the plains were connected, and they spread out so far and wide that they stretched to the ends of the world. The end could not be seen! At just one glance, they gave off an endless wave of pressure! Fear descended on the players. They felt that if they approached the area slightly, they will be crushed to dust.
Quite a number of people cast their gazes on a hill not too far away.
There were more than one thousand legitimate cavaliers from the Chinese army. They stood in an orderly fashion on the hill, and they slowly moved into their formation there!
The horses stopped neighing.
The cavaliers tightened their hold over their weapons. They stared at the enemy camp ahead of them, and there was only a somber and resolute look on their faces.
Of course, these cavaliers had definitely not come to this place from the camp after they received orders from their general.
Legitimate cavaliers will not take the risk and venture so deep into the plains without foreign help.
This was a cavalier unit that was not considered small. Half of them were Happy’s personal guards, and the other half came from the people from the four sects who used all their points after they got themselves military titles in exchange for the cavaliers.
There were more than ten medium-ranked captains, dozens of junior-ranked captains, and a whole bunch of 5-man commanders. They managed to amass more than one thousand two hundred cavaliers, and they formed a temporary one-thousand man cavalier battalion. The sight was incredibly grand.
As the only senior-ranked captain in the group, Happy will have the right to command the other soldiers as long as the other medium-ranked captains, junior-ranked captains, and 5-man commanders were willing to hand him their soldiers. Because of it, he was able to have everyone group together, just as he wished.
Everyone in the area had seen a large cavalier battalion numbering to one thousand people before.
But this was still the first time they saw a large cavalier battalion led by a player. Hence, quite a number of people were worried but also expectant of the operation Happy led this time.

Happy rode on a tall horse on the hill, and he was right in front of the thousand cavaliers.
When he looked down, he stared at the enemy camp ahead of him from the distance. The thousand cavaliers behind stood sternly, and they remained silent because of his orders while they waited for his next order. As soon as he gave his next order, he will charge forward madly, and this feeling was indeed very good!
But once he enjoyed this momentary vanity, Happy gradually scowled.
The quest he received this time was to pretend to attack the enemy camp as well as harass the flank. With the high mobility from the cavaliers, he was to lure out a group of soldiers from the enemy camp and subsequently destroy them.
The points received from destroying the Mongolian cavaliers will all be given to the commander who received the quest, regardless of whether it was the cavaliers who killed them or whether it was he who killed them. The points the commander received will even be doubled!
The description of the quest made it sound like a very relaxing quest.
But as the hardest quest released to the players at the current stage, Happy could already sense that this quest was the typical suicidal quest given by the system.
After all, the Mongolian army was different from the Chinese army.
The Chinese army was mainly made up of infantries!
But all the Mongolian soldiers were armored cavaliers, and they were even cavalry archers whose skills with the bow were extraordinary. If these one thousand people truly went up there to harass the enemy, not only will they not be able to lure the enemies out, they will just be sending themselves into their hands as fodder.
Happy hesitated for a while before he suddenly looked at the sky. Then, he scowled even further.
If he still took no action, it will be dark soon.

Thunderous Battle, be careful at your side. I’ll be taking action now!
Right when he finished speaking, he raised his arm high into the air before he brought it down swiftly.

Charge!
His tone was firm and resolute.
Boom!
More than one thousand cavaliers charged down the slope at the same time! They were like a flood that was released from a dam, and with thunderous hooves, they charged to the enemy camp with an indomitable spirit. They never once turned back…
