Ye Li smiled upon hearing this and said, "That's what I was planning as well. Without further ado, you two should accompany me to Huangliang Mountain tonight.
You are also clear about the location of the Yellow Bandits on Huangliang Mountain. When the time comes, we will see if there is any chance to sneak directly to where the bandit leader is and capture him alive.
If you can persuade them to surrender, do so. If you cannot, kill the boss and leave the second in command to see if you can control them.
If this still fails to subdue these yellow-robed bandits, then we can only follow the original plan and kill them first."
Ding Si nodded when he heard this. At first, he thought he could be Ye Li's think tank and give him advice. However, he only realized now that Ye Li was no worse than him in intelligence. He was still a little short of being a think tank.
Now his strength is not as good as Ye Li's, and his intelligence is not as strong as Ye Li's. Ding Si couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seems that the only thing he can do well is to handle various chores for Ye Li.
After making the decision, the three of them went their separate ways to rest. As soon as night fell that day, the three of them rode on fast horses and galloped towards Huangliang Mountain at lightning speed.
At this time, Wang Yue and others were already drinking to celebrate. In their opinion, as long as Ye Li agreed to attack the yellow-clothed bandits in Huangliang Mountain, it would be their victory.
They believed that with Ye Li's strength, it would be impossible for him to take down the yellow-clothed bandit.
Only the three mayors knew that the boss Zhang Hua had advanced to the Concentration Stage. No one else knew about it, so it was impossible for Ye Li and the other two to find out the news.
Misjudging the enemy's strength and taking the risk of attacking the enemy's lair will basically lead to defeat.
When the moon was above the treetops, Ye Li and the other two had already arrived at Huangliang Mountain. Ye Li took a look at the mountains in front of him and asked, "Which one of these mountains is Huangliang Mountain?"
Ding Si said: "In fact, the Huangliang Mountain that people here call includes all four mountains, because these four mountains are actually the same mountain, but the peaks are slightly different.
The peak in front of you on the left is called Wangyun Peak, which is also a famous attraction in Dongfang County.
The one farthest from us is called Wolf Fang Peak. It is the lair of the Yellow Bandits and is also the target we are going to attack today."
Ye Li looked at the sky. Today's moon was a waning crescent, so it didn't look very bright. However, with the cultivation and perception abilities of the three of them, it should not be a problem for them to see the surrounding situation clearly.
"Okay, Ding Si, you lead the way. Let's find the Yellow Bandits' lair first. But it's so late now, and I don't know if we can find their leader."
Ye Li said.
Ding Si said: "I came here before and explored it. Although I am not sure if I have found the residence of their leader, I can basically determine which area is the core area of their yellow-robed bandits.
I'm sure the leaders are in this area. If we go in, it shouldn't be difficult to find the three bandit leaders."
Hearing Ding Si's words, Ye Li nodded and said, "Okay, let's go up the mountain first!"
All three of them are very powerful, and the physical strength of a spiritual warrior is much stronger than that of a spiritual talisman master. Even without a horse, they can travel long distances at an extremely fast speed.
After leaving their horses at the foot of the mountain, they quickly climbed up the hillside and began heading towards the Wolf Tooth Peak behind them.
After nearly an hour and a half of trekking, the three finally arrived at the halfway point of Langya Peak, and the camp of the yellow-clothed bandits was right in this area.
Ye Li and Qian San followed Ding Si through a forest, and suddenly a large village appeared in front of the three.
Pointing to the mountain stronghold in the distance, Ding Si said, "Master, that's where the yellow-robed bandits' lair is. There are some sentries near the stronghold, so we have to be careful."
Ye Li nodded when he heard that. With the help of the moonlight, he could clearly see the guards in the village in the distance.
Ye Li was naturally not surprised about the outer sentries. After all, he had done many infiltration missions.
The three of them crouched carefully, then moved towards the mountain village and squatted behind a rock about a hundred meters away from the village.
"Master, I observed the village from here that day, but I didn't dare to get too close to it for fear of alerting the enemy.
But I noticed that the area with the strongest defense is a little to the left of the center of the stockade. Look there..."
While Ding Si was speaking, he pointed to a place on the left side of the center of the village not far away. There were several large houses next to each other. They looked taller and bigger than the houses next to them. It really looked like where the leader might live.
"Master, I saw someone who looked like the bandit leader walking into that house accompanied by guards, so I guess that's where they live."
Ding Si added to Ye Li.
Ye Li nodded and said, "Generally speaking, the place where the leader lives should be in this location. I think you are right. There is a high probability that this is where the bandit leader lives."
After confirming Ding Si's words, Ye Li looked at several places outside the village and said, "Did you see those slightly uncoordinated shadows in those places? They must be the sentries.
We can't let the security of those visible sentries distract our attention. If we only focus on dealing with the visible sentries, we will definitely be discovered by the hidden sentries, and then the infiltration plan will be doomed to fail."
Ye Li, who had several infiltration experiences, could already easily identify the location of the secret sentry. Moreover, the secret sentry of the yellow-clothed bandits was not too hidden, so Ye Li identified it almost immediately.
Ding Si and Qian San looked at those places doubtfully. Ding Si said, "Are those secret sentries? Why can't I see much difference?"
Although he was quite smart, he seldom undertook such infiltration missions, so he did not have a deep understanding of the secret sentries and could not see any inconsistency.
Ye Li smiled and said, "You don't have to doubt me. When I left home as a teenager, the first thing I did was to sneak into the thieves' camp to rescue people.
After that, I completed several missions of sneaking into the enemy camp and became very familiar with the layout of the camp’s sentries.
You just need to remember the location of the sentry I told you about, and carefully approach and eliminate the person inside."
After hearing Ye Li's words, Ding Si and Qian San looked at each other, and a trace of admiration arose in their hearts.
Ye Li glanced at the sky and said, "It's almost time now. Let's start by dealing with the secret sentry on the far left.
You two follow me, and when I make a gesture to you, move towards the location of the second secret sentry. We will take out both secret sentries together.
After all, the vision ranges of these two sentries overlap. If we only take care of one of them, it might expose our actions..."
