Chapter 1327: Bait
"Speak." Lou’s face was calm, but he was very attentive inside. Since Ji You retreated, both sides had been relatively stable for about two hours. Although they seemed peaceful, it was really a stalemate.
This seemingly quiet and uneventful impasse would surely be broken, it was just a matter of time and method.
So—
Lou was very nervous and focused.
The boy who came to report was Shi Yuan, who had been sent back from the border river.
Shi Yuan said, "At the checkpoint we’re watching, we spotted the enemy... About 20 minutes ago, the enemies seemed to have retreated, but before leaving, they dug traps near the border river..."

Shi Yuan reported every detail of his squad’s discoveries to Lou.

"No!" Lou knocked on the stone wall and said, "It can’t be traps. In such a short time, they couldn’t have dug anything significant. They must be up to something else."
Shi Yuan wondered, "If not traps, then what is it?"
Lou started to think.
