Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

1095 Plan

“General Cao is in charge of this area?” Nan Hua passed a look at Feng Ao Kuai as if she was asking for his confirmation.

Feng Ao Kuai blinked his eyes and nodded. “Yes, he has been in charge starting from the spring since General Wei would be quite busy in the other area. I can’t say anything much about his skill, though.”

General Cao was one of the generals who were newly promoted after the joint war three or so years ago. He replaced General Mu to be the one in charge of the army that were previously under him.

He was not famous as much as the others.

In fact, not many people knew his name until he was promoted to become a general and entrusted the army. Though some people considered him to be taking this post until General Mu’s son able to grow up.

But that was a discussion of another time.

“Leave this area.”

“Ah, but we’re going to be charged for insubordination if we leave directly.” Nan Luo’s face darkened. He didn’t want to be in trouble for not following order. It would also make it harder for him to get promotion in the future if he were to cause trouble at this juncture.

Nan Hua looked at Feng Ao Kuai.

.....

Feng Ao Kuai smiled sheepishly. “Well, I think that it’s not a good idea to leave directly. I was planning on eliminating the four small armies first before retreating and give the report to General Cao. At the very least, with that, we wouldn’t be blamed as we really need to report for the change in the frontline and asked for more armies to come to this area.”

He was already feeling displeased when General Cao didn’t give them any answer. It was also because of this that he thought about the loopholes in the rules and regulation that they had to follow.

If they achieved something big, they were allowed to return and give report.

That was why Feng Ao Kuai planned on eliminating the four small armies first. Despite them being called small armies, their numbers were still within 3,000 to 5,000 each. It was hard for the two of them to deal with them one by one.

And if they were to cooperate together, it would also be the end for both Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai.

That was why the two of them were being careful.

“I see.”

Nan Hua had taken a look at the surroundings area when she first came here. After all, they were all presented before her eyes and could be seen even from a distance away.

“This place is unsafe.” Nan Hua then pointed at the big mountain at the West. “Ao Kuai, head here and wait for signal. I would need you to….”

Both Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Luo listened to Nan Hua’s instruction. Upon hearing what they were supposed to do, the two of them were dumbfounded. It was not a complicated plan, but it was very dangerous.

Nan Hua turned to look at the two of them. “With this, no one will be able to charge you with insubordination. This is the fastest and most efficient way to eliminate all of them at the same time.”

Feng Ao Kuai frowned. “But if we didn’t use this plan, will that place…?”

“It will. One week at the fastest, three months at the latest.”

The two of them were silent.

Neither one of them were better than Nan Hua when it came to judging the landscape movement. It seemed to be Nan Hua’s natural talent or it might because she often spent her time with the nature that she was more familiar with it than them.

Thanks to her ability to analyze their environment, she could guess many things.

The most common was whether there was any food or not.

At other times, she would be able to guess whether there were any animals nearby or not based on their environment in the forest. i????????r????????????.＆nbsp;com

She seemed like a natural hunter.

But Nan Luo felt that the way Nan Hua spoke them was as if she had firsthand experience rather than because of her natural talent. But he never questioned Nan Hua about this matter as he didn’t want to pry too deep into Nan Hua’s life.

“That’s a natural disaster, right?”

Nan Hua tilted her head. “It can be manmade as long as you have the necessary knowledge and equipment.”

Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai looked at each other.

The two of them were thinking the same thing: They should never provoke Nan Hua in case she would take revenge in the form of a seemingly natural disaster. If that happened, they wouldn’t know where they should go to cry.

The others would only see it as a natural disaster.

While they who knew what happened at the background would know that it was nothing like that.

But they can’t say anything.

Where can they cry to?

“Can you prepare it?” Nan Hua asked again.

“Yes, I can. Just give me a day’s time.”

“Alright, Luo, you will be in charge of pulling the two armies along with Qiu Xian.”

“Wait, how about the other two?” Nan Luo was stunned.

“Leave them to me.”

It was just pulling two armies towards the valley, right? Nan Hua was good at pulling her opponents to the location that she wanted them to be. There was not even any need for her to appear on her own.

All she needed was to leave some obvious marks on the ground to lure them over.

“Ready?”

“Okay.”

That night, they agreed for the plan.

And the soldiers outside suddenly felt chills. It was as if they were about to be involved in something that would definitely be big.

…

The next day, they went their separate ways.

Nan Luo was busy cleaning up the camps while Nan Hua took the leftover of the wood, ash, and some food in the pot. While Nan Luo was confused as to why Nan Hua wanted to bring them, he didn’t try to ask her.

He could guess that whatever answer Nan Hua had, he wouldn’t be able to understand them easily.
