Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



"It shouldn't be General Xing." Mu Sheng Xi glanced at Feng Ao Kuai. "It's more likely that they will switch it to General Chi instead."

"Why?" Feng Ao Si didn't understand.

"Because it'll be easier for cavalry to reach their headquarters and ransacked it rather than infantry."

Comparing the speed of human and horse…. Horse win with overwhelming victory.

Besides, Long Qian Xing had to traverse in the forest where the trees would hinder his speed. It was not like they couldn't use horses, but if they were to use cavalry, the chance for them to ambush the enemies would be smaller.

After all, could they make their horse silent?

Their tactic so far revolved in ambushing silently, so it was more beneficial for them to travel by foot. Their cavalry soldiers were left behind in the headquarters as the defense line and will be used when it was necessary.

"I see."

"Since you two will be at the defense line, I'll tell you the distribution first." Feng Ao Kuai didn't want these two to mess up the defense line in the headquarters. That would give him headache and cause unnecessary troubles.

"Yes!"

<Fei Yang Kingdom's side, Long Qian Xing and General Chi's side>

Tep!

"You're really reckless," General Chi said without turning around.

"You mean the attempt to destroy their headquarters?" Long Qian Xing replied and chuckled. He had just finished his dinner and felt more comfortable. After an entire day fighting, it was always good to fill his stomach.

General Chi put down the map in front of him. "I heard the report. I'll be heading to their headquarters tomorrow instead."

"In that case, I'll be the bait." Long Qian Xing sat down and tapped the table. "Shall I borrow your cavalry soldiers?"

"Have you familiarized yourself with the terrains?"

"Don't worry, the horses still could pass. I have already designed the route to accidentally bump to them." Long Qian Xing shrugged. "Do you think General Shang will be waiting for you or for me?"

"Either side, just charge to the headquarter." General Chi frowned.

"Heh, don't worry. If I had the chance to strike more merit, who wouldn't want it?" Long Qian Xing replied with a faint smile and then walked away again.

General Chi watched Long Qian Xing's back and felt that Long Qian Xing was more similar to Old Master Long rather than General Long. He was harder to deal with, but thankfully, Long Qian Xing didn't have that sick hobby of General Long to taunt his opponents.

He looked at the map before him and knew that even if they pushed these two back, there were still several small cities they had to face.

Capturing them wouldn't be easy.

…

<Zhang Xu Kingdom's side, General Shang and General Jue, headquarters>

Bang!

General Shang looked at the mess in the headquarter and his face turned black. He was fighting against General Chi all day long and didn't let the other party's attack be breached. But while he was fighting bitterly, it was General Jue who let the other party slipped here.I think you should take a look at

The traps were a mess and their delicate preparation for several days were thwarted just like that.

"Do you have anything to say?" General Shang asked General Jue coldly. Looking at the other party sitting while having the doctor bandage his shoulder, he felt more annoyed.

"I didn't do my job well." General Jue was unwilling, but he had to admit his mistake. Despite being an arrogant man, he was still someone who knew his proportion. It was even more so as he had caused thousands of soldiers lost their lives today.

Who would have thought that Long Qian Xing was so brave that he sneaked past him and then reached the headquarter?

"I'll ask the commander to retreat to the nearby city and prepare the defenses of several cities there. We'll set up the next battlefield at the forest behind these cities." General Shang rubbed his forehead.

General Jue's eyes widened. There were a total of three cities between this area and the next forest and valley. If they were to retreat and allowed the battlefield to that forest, it meant that they would abandon these three cities.

"No! We're losing the fight if we retreat!"

"I didn't mean that we have to retreat now." General Shang shook his head. "It's just preparation in case something happened."

"Something happened?" General Jue looked at General Shang with frown.

General Shang didn't elaborate and merely pointed at the valley. "I'll leave it to you and Young Commander Chi. Even if you're wounded, I can rely on you to defend the headquarters, can I?"

"Yes, General Shang."

General Jue clasped his fingers into a fist. He knew very well why General Shang still arranged for Chi Song Hui to be the one fighting against General Chi.

It was to mess up the opponent's pace.

'I'll show to you tomorrow that I also can do it.'

<Fei Yang Kingdom's side, Nan Hua's Tent>

Nan Hua was resting calmly when there she sensed a presence coming. She opened her eyes and carefully sensed the person's movement.

The familiar footsteps and fragrance could be detected.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and turned her body to the side, just in time to see Long Qian Xing sneaking into her tent.

"General Xing?" Nan Hua asked in a low voice.

"You're awake." Long Qian Xing smiled helplessly when he saw Nan Hua was looking in his direction. He was only planning to take a look at Nan Hua to see her condition and then leave again.

But Nan Hua's vigilance was higher than he thought. Even when he didn't make any sound at all, she was able to know that he sneaked into her tent.

He felt helpless when he thought of this.

"Um."

Nan Hua sat up and Long Qian Xing hurried to Nan Hua's side. He crouched down beside her bed. "You don't have to sit up, just lie down."

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing's solemn gaze and silently retreated to her bed. She watched as he lifted her hand carefully as if he was seeing a fragile porcelain.

"I'm fine, Brother Long," Nan Hua whispered.
