1135 Regroup
And the reality was just like what Nan Luo expected.
When he arrived, the battle was almost over. All he could do was to pick up some of the deserters soldiers and kill them. After a while, the war was declared over.
These soldiers were captured and will be dealt accordingly.
On the other hand, Nan Luo came to General Chi and Young Commander Long.
"Nan Luo, Young Commander Nan, greets General Chi and Young Commander Long."
"Feng Ao Kuai, Young Commander Feng, greets General Chi and Young Commander Long."
"You're late." Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Luo but his tone didn't express any anger. Instead, it looked like he had already expected that Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai will be late to the middle area.
"There are too many armies we have to deal…." Nan Luo was a bit embarrassed.
General Chi was tired. He had been battling for days almost without any rest. He looked at the three youngsters in front of him, feeling immense heartache. If his son was still alive, he would have been among this group of young commanders.
And who knew what would happen in the future?
He took a deep breath. "After securing the three cities, there will still be a lot of work to do. Adjutant Ren will be the one taking care of the soldiers and also the repair."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Ah, repair…"
"Is there any problem?"
"…West Point City will need to be rebuilt." Nan Luo then turned to look at Feng Ao Kuai. He really couldn't bear to say that they destroyed the wall.
"The wall is destroyed."
General Chi was speechless. He turned to look at Long Qian Xing. "Did you also destroy the wall like you did before?"
Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. "With all due respect, General Chi, I didn't destroy the wall back then. What I do was to burn the wall down and it eventually fall down."
"…" Isn't it the same?
"However, the condition of South Point City's wall is indeed terribly poor. It'll be better to destroy the city altogether and moved the people there to a brand new city. There will need to be some arrangement to be made for this."
General Chi nodded. "Leave it to me."
"General Chi, there's no need to hurry so much. You should rest first because there might still be another battle soon." Long Qian Xing could guess that General Chi had not rested at all.
After all, if General Chi were to relax even the slightest bit, he would end up remembering his son. And knowing what had happened to his son, it would be impossible for General Chi to calm down as he will be filled with rage, indignation, sadness, and many other emotions brewing together.
"Wait, there are more battles?" Nan Luo was about to collapse.
Right now, he really wanted to file a complaint to child's protection or something like that. He barely rested at all for the past few days. If he still had to participate in another battle, Nan Luo was honestly worried that he will lose his life instead.
The consequences of betting one's life when one was tired could be very dire.
"You should rest too." Long Qian Xing patted Nan Luo's shoulder.
"I definitely will rest." Nan Luo's smiled bitterly.
"It's fine." General Chi waved his hand. "After destroying Wei Da Kingdom, there's still Zhang Xu Kingdom waiting on the line. Before everything is finished, I'll not be able to rest properly."
Long Qian Xing pursed his lips but didn't say anything else.
He knew that General Chi was feeling extremely complicated about Zhang Xu Kingdom. First of all, he used to be from Zhang Xu Kingdom, but his performance disappointed the kingdom and thus he was kicked out. At that time, he had already lost his wife and second son.
Secondly, he had to build everything in Fei Yang Kingdom and fought against his former kingdom from time to time. After spending a decade here, could he say for sure that he had no feeling at all for Fei Yang Kingdom?
No one knew for sure.
At least, Long Qian Xing didn't know.
General Chi had lost many things and now, he lost his first son against soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom.
He still contacted his wife.
Yet at the same time, he also understood that from the moment he decided to side with Fei Yang Kingdom, there will be a time when he will be standing on the opposite side of Zhang Xu Kingdom.
It was his personal conflict.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd Long Qian Xing will not interfere. He just hoped that General Chi will not recklessly throw his life away.
They watched General Chi walked away and then continued their conversation.
"Strategist Kui had died, right?" Long Qian Xing recalled this matter and looked at Nan Luo. "You're lucky to be able to meet them halfway."
"They might have picked the west route because they think that there would not be any Fei Yang Kingdom's soldiers in this direction." Nan Luo shrugged. "Anyway, the one who kill him is Nan and not me."
Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. "Your adjutant seems to be more capable than you."
Nan Luo was speechless.
He really wanted to refute that sentence, but he himself knew that it was also the brutal truth. His adjutant, Nan Hua, is indeed much more capable than him.
"Let's rest and then be prepared for another battle."
"Yes."
It's not over yet.
…
<Wei Da Kingdom's side.>
Drap! Drap! Drap!
Crying sadly, Young Commander Kui could only follow his guards' words and continued to march toward Da Yi City. It was a city located north of the three point cities and also the location where General Duan was located.
This was the safest city in this area.
"Young Commander Kui, we're almost here."
"I know." Young Commander Kui looked at the few guards around him and felt another heartache. These people were all elites that his grandfather prepared to protect him and his father.
