Wrapping Dumplings (II)

The Red Lotus Group was utterly confused this time.

The soldiers standing guard at the exit waited anxiously for the "fire arrow" to appear. It would signal them to surround Thief Liu's army from both sides.

Yet, when they charged forward, they discovered the road ahead had been blocked by a pile of stones. Arrows were fired from above the stone walls. Some Red Lotus followers were caught off-guard as the arrows shot right through their bodies. Fresh blood flowed out, dying the golden-brown earth.

From a distance, battle-cries were heard from behind the stone wall. The Red Lotus Group followers who served as reinforcements finally understood that they'd been tricked.

Qiguan Rang remained calm. While helping Li Yun to safeguard the line of defense, he also helped to direct the archers to resist their dreadful enemies.
