The carriages were piled with sacks full of goods.
The people driving the carriages were dressed like local men, led by a tall, middle-aged man on horseback.
The middle-aged man wore a straw hat, his eyes cautiously scanning his surroundings.
Behind him followed two guards dressed in short clothes.
At the end of the mule carriage, two young men dressed as guards followed.
In the grass, someone whispered to the Second-in-command, "Second-in-command, those goods on the carriages are not light; look, the deep marks left by the wheels on the muddy ground indicate the intelligence was accurate."
The Second-in-command nodded, squinting, and said, "Wait for the right time to act."
"Yes!"
Once the group passed through the circle near the Second-in-command, he stood up and suddenly shouted, "Brothers, go up!"
He brandished his knife and charged forward first.
The ambushing Southern Yue people in the grass across the road also brandished their knives and charged onto the road.
