I discovered a Mongol Territory named Burn Down Logging Base while riding through the forest and decided to take it over. After scouting from a rock, I completed a perfect standoff to fulfill an objective. Though I tried to stay quiet by crawling over sheds, a loud guard alerted a part of the camp, forcing me to fight multiple enemies and an archer.
I was riding through the forest after taking down two bandit groups earlier in the day. Suddenly, I noticed there was this Mongol territory right ahead of me on the path. It was a Bur Down Logging Base that looked very dark and quiet against the green trees of the surrounding forest.
I was really not looking forward to taking over this logging base so soon, but as I was close-by, I decided to go for it anyway. I rowed my horse and began to approach the perimeter with a plan to take over the base.
After getting close to the territory, I climbed up on a large rock to check around the area. I wanted to see how many guards were patrolling the inner sections of the base.
I noticed there was a small hole in the fence that I could use to squeeze through into the base. However, there was a Mongol guard relaxing right there, making a stealthy entrance very difficult. I watched him for a moment to see if he would move, but he stayed firmly in his spot.
I returned and climbed back on the stone from where I started checking around for an easy target. I had an optional objective where I had to kill one of the enemies in a standoff. I scanned the group until I found a warrior standing near the main entrance.
I found the target and I went for a standoff, calling out to the enemy with confidence. I nailed the timing perfectly and cut him down without alerting anyone else in the immediate area. It was a clean and honorable start to the liberation of this logging base.
Then I went for that Mongol guard who was sitting near the fence hole. I squeezed through the narrow gap and took him down with quick melee attacks. I was looking forward to assassinating him quietly, but I messed it up which forced me to use my blade more aggressively than planned.
I started walking over a shed like a ninja to stay quiet and keep out of their line of sight. From this height, I could see the layout of the remaining enemies around.
But one of the Mongols around noticed my movement and started chasing me. I stopped after going back a little distance to find a better fighting spot. I took him down quickly, hoping no one else would follow his path towards me.
But more Mongols followed as the one I took down earlier screamed for help before he followed me. The silence was broken, and I had to take them down as well in a flurry of sword strikes.
Then came even more enemies, and the worst thing was that an archer noticed me as well. He started shooting me with arrows while I was busy taking care of the enemies on the ground level. I had to keep moving to avoid being hit by the arrows.
After dodging some arrows of the archer, I drew my own bow and shot him down. It was a perfect headshot that dropped him from his perch instantly. Taking him down ended the initial threat as no other Mongol got the hint about my presence there.

Thanks a lot.
You had to change the plan so fast to survive. You started like a silent ghost, then became a warrior when the camp got alerted. That archer headshot was a perfect finish.
Yeah, once the camp woke up it was all about surviving and reacting fast.
The forest setting and dark logging base made this mission more intense. Sometimes stealth fails, but that makes the fight even better.
Stealth plan lasted five seconds and then it was chaos, lol.
I noticed how quickly you had to adapt when the guard screamed for help. Moving to a better fighting spot was a smart choice, as it is much easier to manage a crowd when you pick the ground.
Good catch, that move saved a lot of trouble.

Your standoff was perfectly executed. Fulfilling those optional objectives early on really helps build up your legend, even if the rest of the camp decided to wake up shortly after. Great captures, btw 🤗
Thanks, I appreciate you noticing both the setup and the captures.
