Since the Hulan Base had no electricity, nightfall began early. By 9:00 PM, the tents had mostly fallen quiet as people drifted off to sleep early to endure the long night. With no defensive structures in place, guards had to be stationed around the clock to prevent any midnight sneak attacks by the Bear Clan.
This total silence over the Hulan Base marked the perfect time for Tang Mo to set her plan in motion.
Whether they had picked it up from Qiangba or not, everyone in the Hulan Base carried an air of wild, unbridled arrogance. Because the Bear Clan had never attacked at night before, even the night watchmen were dozing in their chairs, completely lacking the vigilance they should have had. It was as if the people of the base believed they were the sole masters of the grasslands.
