But perhaps because the heavy snow covered their tracks, no matter how many men were sent out, none returned with any news.
The Mountain Leader grew anxious. "What's going on with these people? Have they all forgotten how to find their way back?"
Having fought against the border city's garrison commanders for so many years, the soldiers he dispatched all knew how to hide themselves well. He never would have imagined that they had already been captured.
"Lord Shan, what do we do now? Should we send more men to scout?"
The Mountain Leader replied, "Yes. Tian Er, have your men detour to the Prefecture City. The Prince was very pleased with the wealth we brought back last time. If there's a suitable target, we'll pull off one last big heist before winter fully sets in."
Tian Er immediately jumped up in excitement. "I love this kind of work."
Last time they brought back so many goods, and he received a cut. His family would be well off for a while.
