Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents Chapter 190 - 38: Strike First! Prince Jin Completely Breaks

The rest of the troops won’t have any problems either.

If they run short on provisions at tis,

Prince Jin, Yan Ze, would send these people out to rob and loot a bit. Bandits stopping travelers and extorting them—isn’t that just business as usual?

No one would suspect a thing.

And as long as you keep the number of robberies within a certain limit, no big fuss will happen.

"This is the place!"

Qi Yuanliang had picked this particular bandit gang; not many n inside, only about a hundred or so.

Qi Yuanliang was deliberate in choosing a smaller crew.

That way, resolving things would be much faster. All he needed was to provoke Prince Jin, Yan Ze’s rage toward Ye Liuyun; it’s not like he actually wanted to do battle with the prince for real.

"First take care of these people, then bla their deaths on Ye Liuyun, and after that—"

At this point,

Qi Yuanliang could practically picture the scene of Prince Jin, Yan Ze furiously confronting Ye Liuyun.

Luckily, Qi Yuanliang was in good spirits.

He tucked away his smile, face turning somber, and stealthily slipped into the bandits’ camp.

With Qi Yuanliang’s abilities, taking on a hundred thousand soldiers alone is clearly impossible.

No matter how strong the Innate Realm is, it’s not that ridiculous; maybe if Qi Yuanliang broke through to Grandmaster, then one against a hundred thousand might be possible.

But against a re couple hundred, that’s not really an issue.

However—

What Qi Yuanliang didn’t know was—

Just as he was about to take action, on the other side, Shi Sheng and Si Nan leading a squad of Embroidered Uniform Guards had already entered Sanquan Mountain.

They’d also found another bandit stronghold.

But this stronghold was much larger than the one Qi Yuanliang had chosen.

Probably a thousand n inside.

"What do we do next?"

Glancing toward the direction of the stronghold, Shi Sheng looked aningfully at Si Nan at his side.

Though the two bickered often, neither really giving way to the other,

When it ca to actual business, Shi Sheng was well aware of his own limits—he knew he couldn’t match Si Nan in strategy, and this task was critical for their lord; they couldn’t afford even the slightest mistake.

So Shi Sheng opted to follow Si Nan’s plan.

"It’s simple!"

This ti, Si Nan didn’t take the opportunity to mock Shi Sheng,

But seriously began to analyze the situation.

"The lord wants the commotion to be big—lots of witnesses. I’m thinking we’ll set a fire, but, with so many people here, can we really manage it?"

If the fire hasn’t started yet,

With all these people in the stronghold, stopping us would be easy.

"So, we just need to fight!"

After listening all that ti, Shi Sheng’s takeaway was one word.

Fight!

"You light the fire, I’ll take care of the fighting. Leave it to !"

And when it cos to this sort of thing...

Shi Sheng really didn’t know the aning of ’chicken out.’

"Be careful. Try not to die."

Before things kicked off, Si Nan paused, then gave a reminder.

"Relax, even if you die, I’m not going anywhere."

"Hmph!"

What a damn smooth talker.

Si Nan shot Shi Sheng an annoyed look, but didn’t say more. Waving his hand, he ordered all the n behind him.

"Prepare to move!"

...

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The fireworks over the lake kept erupting.

Brilliant colors lit up the originally pitch-black night sky, making it glow fiercely bright.

Up in the pavilion, Prince Jin, Yan Ze, was effortlessly socializing with every guest; that beaming expression showed he was clearly enjoying himself.

After a while, he walked over to Ye Liuyun’s spot.

Apparently only just now noticing Ye Liuyun had co alone, he asked offhandedly,

"By the way, where are the other Embroidered Uniform Guards?"

He’d only planned on recruiting Ye Liuyun, but if he could use this chance to recruit the rest of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, that would be even better, wouldn’t it?

Finally, he brought it up.

Judging by the ti, things ought to be about ready.

If Prince Jin, Yan Ze hadn’t asked, Ye Liuyun was actually considering bringing it up himself.

Now that the question had co,

Ye Liuyun shrugged, then feigned indifference as he replied,

"Lord Governor was supposed to co with , but halfway through, he seed to get word that there were signs of bandit activity at Sanquan Mountain, so he went alone."

"Sanquan Mountain?"

Prince Jin hadn’t paid much attention at first.

But hearing the na Sanquan Mountain, his mind instantly cleared.

"You an, the Governor who ca with you went to Sanquan Mountain?"

Southern Governor, Qi Yuanliang—these past days, Prince Jin, Yan Ze had gathered so intel about him.

He already knew who was backing him.

So even though Qi Yuanliang was rather capable, Prince Jin never had any thoughts of recruiting him; after all, he wasn’t recruitable, so why waste ti?

Sa goes for this.

Knowing who’s behind Qi Yuanliang, Prince Jin, Yan Ze was always suspicious of his real purpose for coming to Prince Jin City.

Looking at things now,

Sure enough, it was that person behind the scenes instructing Qi Yuanliang to co investigate his troop deploynts.

He hadn’t expected them to pick such a day—crowds everywhere, distractions—all to make their move. Quite clever, actually.

Prince Jin, Yan Ze was a smart man.

And smart people are masters at filling in the gaps.

Moreover, they tend to believe their own conclusions.

Prince Jin felt certain he had seen through Qi Yuanliang’s entire plan.

Seeing Prince Jin’s face gradually turn solemn, Ye Liuyun stoked the fire at just the right mont.
