Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1470 Result of the Battle

<Fei Yang Kingdom's side, Mu Sheng Xi, Young Commander Mu's location along with the others on the long border with Zhang Xu Kingdom>

The battle on this side had been quite rigorous too.

It was not like they wanted to, but Zhang Xu Kingdom were also revealing many of their tricks that they had been keeping under their sleeves. From the way it looked like, they were planning on ending the battle sometime soon.

At least, trying to.

"Young Commander Mu, there's a message from General Xing."

"Message?" Young Commander Mu, Mu Sheng Xi, looked at the messenger in surprise. He quickly took the bamboo scroll and tore the seal.

Reading the content, his face was filled with surprise and disbelief. He looked into the distance and took a deep breath. After just finishing the battle today, he was hit with another pieces of news.

"Prepare a horse, I need to go," Mu Sheng Xi said with trembled tone.

His adjutant knew that there was something wrong, but he didn't dare to ask and quickly prepared the horse that Mu Sheng Xi needed.

Internally, he hoped that things wouldn't be so bad.

…

<Zhang Xu Kingdom's side, Strategist Mang's location along with the others at the long border between Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom>

"General Shang had died?" Strategist Mang asked with a cold tone towards the soldiers in front of him.

"Y…Yes." The soldiers trembled.

He wanted to cry so badly. When he and the other soldiers debated on who to relay this news, they had been pushing and pulling each other. Who would have thought that he would be pushed inside directly?

He could only bite the bullet and relay the news as fast as possible.

Bang!

Strategist Mang kicked the stool nearby and snorted in anger. General Shang was one of the few older general in Zhang Xu Kingdom who had high prestige and also real power. Unlike these few new generals who were mostly promoted hastily because they needed new personnel, General Shang has real capability.

Now, he had died.

"Princess Jun Hua." Strategist Mang's eyes flashed with killing intent.

At first, he only thought that this woman was quite daring to be using such a grand title on the battlefield. Just like how Queen Yu was called as 'Queen' by her people, this woman also dared to use such a grand title.

Now, he felt that it was no wonder that this person was so arrogant.

She's really capable.

Having a battle capabilities rivaling that of a general, even the Emperor would not hesitate to grant the title of a princess to her if she wanted to.

"How about General Chi?" Strategist Mang asked, his voice was exceedingly low.

"General Chi is badly injured and had lost an arm. It's estimated that he will not be able to come back to the battlefield." The soldier was still trembling, but he tried his best to say everything concisely.

He didn't want to lose his head just because he couldn't speak well, got it?

"Where's General Cao?"

"General Cao is regrouping his soldiers…."

"Call him."

Strategist Mang took a deep breath and sat down. The death of Chi Song Hui was already estimated should General Chi refused to return and sided with them. Added with the hate that Chi Song Hui had towards his father, it would be a miracle if the two of them could reconcile.

Chi Song Hui's martial arts were not that good, so Strategist Mang didn't care that much.

But the biggest problem was General Shang.

He had lost a good general just like that in this damn battle. How could he not feel annoyed?

Tep!

"Strategist Mang, did you call for me?" General Cao cupped his fist.

"How many soldiers are on your side now?" Strategist Mang asked directly. When General Cao was on Fei Yang Kingdom's side, General Cao still wavered between joining them or not.

But since he had decided to join Zhang Xu Kingdom, General Cao naturally knew that they wanted him to chip the soldiers who were loyal to Fei Yang Kingdom. Thus, he had been using these soldiers as the frontline soldiers while those who agreed to switch to Zhang Xu Kingdom were more protected.

However, it was not easy for him to gather these soldiers to be loyal to Zhang Xu Kingdom.

Many of them have their own family members in Fei Yang Kingdom. They wouldn't want to switch their allegiance so easily because that meant they had to abandon their family in Fei Yang Kingdom.

Not to mention, their family might be subjected to harsh treatment just because of this relationship.

But after working hard, he did manage to obtain a few thousands.

It was just that part of them have been killed during the confrontation with the soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom not long ago.

"There are around 2000 soldiers." General Cao took a deep breath.

"Not enough." Strategist Mang looked at General Cao.

"Many of them have their families staying within Mu Family's territory, so they refuse." General Cao's soldiers used to be General Mu's soldiers. The families of these soldiers were naturally moved to General Mu's city and only a portion of them were still outside.

General Cao only managed to coax these people whose families were naturally outside of General Mu's city.

Strategist Mang waved his hand. "General Xing might be enraged tomorrow. You should be prepared. The next medicine for you had been prepared. You can take it from my adjutant."

"I know." General Cao bowed his head. The corner of his lips curled up to form a smirk.

Now that he will get stronger, he wanted to see how that brat would defeat him.

"You're dismissed."

As General Cao walked away, Strategist Mang looked at General Cao's back and spat out, "Idiot."

Who didn't know that the side effect of these medicines were terrifying?

But for those from Fei Yang Kingdom, they were not totally clear about it and Strategist Mang had no intention to tell the truth.
