Chapter 352: Ambush!

Iron Cloak Li had never doubted Zhou An's judgement before. And more important than that, those men were the elites under his commands, most of them being at the True Martial realm.

It wasn't easy for him to get these experts to join his band.

Jya!

Without any hesitation, Iron Cloak Li leaped from the boulder he was standing on and landed on the back of his crimson Ferghana steed. Pulling the reins, he immediately galloped forward.

"Those from Deadly Serpent and Fiery Drudge will follow me! As for the others, crush the cavalrymen on the slope with all your might!" a resounding voice reminiscent of thunder boomed across the forest, leaving Xu Gan, Huang Yongtu, and the other Great Tang cavalrymen trapped on the slope dumbfounded.

There weren't sure what had happened, but it did seem like a major problem had cropped up for the Iron Cloak Highwaymen.

"What in the world happened?" Huang Yongtu widened his eyes in shock.

"Shove that aside, the enemy is about to attack. Everyone, prepare yourselves!" Zhang Lin bellowed in alarm.

Being at a huge numerical disadvantage, there was very little they could do other than holding firmly onto their defensive line.

Weng!

With the command from Iron Cloak Li, the bandits began to charge furiously toward the twenty-six Great Tang cavalrymen once more.

By this time, the cavalrymen had swiftly returned to their formation. Through the previous clashes, they had already learned several tactics that would allow them to effectively curb the bandits and the highwaymen. While the battle was still likely to ultimately end in their defeat, they were determined to inflict heavy losses upon their enemy, as well.

On the other hand, the elite forces which Iron Cloak Li had named also swiftly organized their forces and galloped down the main road with him.

Zhou An's instincts were rarely wrong, so Iron Cloak Li moved as fast as he could.

It was a competition of wits between two camps just several hundred zhang apart, but it seemed like they weren't going to be the final winner.

Right after Iro
