Chapter 60: The Telescope Is Out

Zhuang Yu carefully inquired about the situation of the opposing coalition forces, including their numbers, strength, current location, and so on. Hearing from the people of the Yellow Sand Tribe that they had used a magnifying glass to burn the enemy's supplies, Zhuang Yu was also taken aback.

It was probably unexpected; no one had thought they could ignite supplies out of thin air. Successfully using the same method next time might not be so easy; they would surely be on guard, and the focusing distance of the magnifying glass couldn't be too far.

Having almost all their supplies burned by a patrol team indicated that this force wasn't large, probably a reconnaissance team coming to gather information. Zhuang Yu thought for a moment and instructed the patrolmen not to get too close to the enemy in the future. After all, the patrol teams consisted of five people each, and compared to the enemy's forces, they were vastly outnumbered. Getting too close might mean not coming back.

However, the people of the Yellow Sand Tribe hesitated for a moment. "Lord, there is a lot of wind and sand in the desert, and the visibility is poor. If we don't get close, even we of the Yellow Sand Tribe won't be able to see the specific situation clearly."

Seeming to understand what Zhuang Yu was worried about, the people of the Yellow Sand Tribe continued, "Lord, don't worry about us. We are part of Crimson Great City, and we are willing to sacrifice for Crimson Great City. Now that Crimson Great City is thriving, we will not allow them to come and destroy it. Moreover, in the desert, it's not so easy for them to capture us; the desert is our home field."

Looking at the flowing river, the water wheels in the river, and the salt fields on the dam, all the people of Crimson Great City were filled with hope for the future. Therefore, no one could destroy the present Crimson Great City. Unless they stepped over their dead bodies.

This was the determination of everyone in Crimson Great City. They had experienced hardships and knew how difficult life in Crimson Great City used to be. Now that life was finally getting better, they wouldn't allow anyone to destroy everything they cherished.

Zhuang Yu frowned. With the current mindset of the Yellow Sand Tribe, they might forget his advice in order to gather information about the enemy.

Other people dying was one thing, but the Yellow Sand Tribe was part of Crimson Great City, and Zhuang Yu couldn't bear to lose them.

But how could he ensure that the people of the Yellow Sand Tribe didn't take risks and still accurately gather information about the enemy?

The people of the Yellow Sand Tribe said, "That's the situation. Lord, please prepare early. We will go on patrol first."

"Wait." Suddenly, Zhuang Yu's eyes lit up as he looked at the light reflected by the sunshade not far away. He slapped his forehead; why was he so stupid not to have thought of such a good reconnaissance tool?

In fact, the people of the Yellow Sand Tribe could accurately monitor the enemy's situation without getting close to their forces.

Zhuang Yu smiled. With this, the patrolmen of the Yellow Sand Tribe could not only greatly reduce the danger but also stealthily gather information about the enemy, making it impossible for the enemy to figure out how they were being monitored.

Seeing Zhuang Yu's smile, the people of the Yellow Sand Tribe couldn't help but be puzzled. "Lord?"

Zhuang Yu said, "Follow me. I have something good for the patrol team of your Tribe. With this, you can see the enemy's movements from far away without taking risks."

The people of the Yellow Sand Tribe were stunned. How was that possible? Even though they were the most familiar with the desert, it seemed impossible.
