Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 1866: Battle in the Giant Rock Gorge Chapter 1866: Battle in the Giant Rock Gorge Editor: Henyee Translations Anze Province wasn’t a place they should linger, yet circumstances compelled them to remain… Fan Ruyin’s tears flowed unabated, fueling her deep-seated hatred.

As her anguish intensified, a glimmer of ruthlessness sparked in her eyes.

She clenched her fists so tightly that her sharp nails threatened to pierce her skin, yet she remained oblivious to the pain.

Counting her private funds, Fan Ruyin withdrew a thousand taels of silver from her stash.

After deliberation, she set aside five hundred taels along with two thumbnail-sized rubies, still unmounted.

A chilling smile tugged at her lips.

Surely this sum was sufficient to procure a life?

Furthermore, with Lord Shao’s unyielding stance against the bandits, their retaliation was inevitable.

By expediting their attack with additional funds, she hoped for the demise of Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan, at least one of them… Fan Ruyin swiftly dispatched her funds to the key figures of the Tiger Head Tribe.

Their selection was deliberate, as it was common knowledge in Anze Prefecture that the tribe’s second-in-command had suffered significant losses at the hands of Prefect Shao’s constables.

Once the items were delivered, the nanny relayed to the Tiger Head Tribe that they had been received with satisfaction, and Fan Ruyin’s request was acknowledged.

This brought her some semblance of relief.

Fan Ruyin’s actions were underhanded, a deceitful ploy.

Meanwhile, a convoy of provisions gathered from Liangshan Town was already forming a lengthy procession, escorted by Sun Bai and Sun Qian from Liangshan Town to the city of Anze Prefecture.

The three villages eagerly awaited their chance to strike… In the Giant Rock Gorge, the ensuing battle was unexpectedly fierce.

What they had perceived as a primary target turned out to be mere bait.

They were the prey, unaware of the predator lurking in the shadows… The alliance between the Min Family Tribe, Liuhe Fort, and Tiger Head Tribe was formidable.

Their objective was clear: to humble the haughty Lord Prefect and shatter his confidence, rendering his authority a mockery.

Their combined forces, numbering over a hundred strong, posed a significant threat.

Despite Shao Yunduan’s skilled constables, they were outnumbered and outmatched.

Aware of the ineptitude of the bailiffs in Anze Province, the three villages believed victory would be swift once they overpowered or eliminated Shao Yunduan’s constables.

However, their expectations were shattered upon reaching the Giant Rock Gorge.

Instead of a triumphant slaughter, they encountered a living nightmare.

This battle became an indelible stain on the reputation of the three villages.

Despite their meticulous planning and caution, they underestimated the strength and resilience of their opponents.

The bailiffs proved to be a formidable force, quickly regrouping and coordinating their efforts against the attackers.

Despite being outnumbered, they held their ground, forming defensive formations and countering every assault.

Even more disconcerting were the unknown experts among the bailiffs, whose ferocity and precision surpassed anything the attackers had encountered before.

In the heat of battle, they found themselves outmatched and overwhelmed, their every move ruthlessly countered.
