After receiving the report, the Barbarian army's main camp fell silent. Heshima's officers looked at one another and whispered, "What are those southerners thinking? Could they be planning to let all these herders into the fortress?
Aren't they worried that some of these herders might be our spies?"
"Who knows what those southerners are thinking?"
However, after receiving the report, Heshima felt that this was actually a good opportunity.
He asked everyone directly, "Since those southerners are so bold, can we make good use of this?"
Everyone turned to look at him, confused about why the Great Chieftain was asking that. Soon, someone understood.
"Great Chieftain, are you saying we should send troops to follow behind those herders and slip into the city with them?"
Heshima nodded, and everyone immediately began discussing it.
"That's a good idea!"
"Our troops can seize the city gates while they have the chance. Then we can let the main army into the city!"
"Exactly. That way, we won't have to find another way to scale the walls!"
Before long, everyone unanimously approved the plan. Keledu, however, remained silent. At that moment, Bone Baldy quietly approached him and whispered, "Lord Keledu, what should we do? If this continues, won't the Iron Bone Tribe capture the city?"
"Don't worry. Those Northern Frontier nobles aren't that foolish. I suspect there's some kind of plot behind this. We only need to watch quietly!"
Once everyone had agreed to Heshima's plan, he immediately summoned a Commander of Ten Thousand who was waiting for orders. "Take your cavalry and follow those Barbarian herders. Remember, stay close to them.
"Find a way to charge through the city walls with them. Once inside, create chaos. If you can get in and seize the city gates, I'll reward you handsomely!"
