Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 339 Day 3

While Feng Ao Kuai was asking Nan Luo to join his small squad, Feng Qian Shao was having another headache. He never thought that the enemy would be able to launch a sneak attack without them realizing in the slightest bit.

Not only that, they were even brazen enough to target his son and nephew.

As a result, it would only make sense that they retaliated. The problem came afterwards as it would be hard to deny their merit. The best way to reward them would be to give them position.

Since they did work together, he could downplay it.

However, the longer the time, the more dangerous situation Feng Ao Kuai would face in the future. Would it be possible for the enemies to wait for him to grow up first?

Very unlikely.

'Did I bring him here too early?'

Feng Qian Shao felt his head throbbed with dizziness. To think that he would get this kind of problem because his son was too excellent. It was still too early and they were not strong enough to protect themselves.

Well, he could only wait, then.

He genuinely hoped that they would be able to be patient and not blindly follow any skirmish in the next year or two so that they could build their strength.

"Stop here!"

"Yes!"

At a distance not far from there.

"Young Commander Long."

Long Qian Xing was riding his horse. He was silent and there was still the same easy going expression on his face. But those who knew him clearly sensed the cold aura that he exuded from time to time. If Long Qian Xing was not pissed off about the enemies' action of breaking through their headquarter, that would be the biggest lie in the world.

He turned his head to look at his second in command and nodded. "What is it?"

"We've found their route. Also, they seem to have encountered some bad luck in the journey because there are some corpses and blood that can mark the route they took."

"Bad luck?"

Long Qian Xing chuckled. His dark eyes radiated in a cold gleam as he pointed to the forest. "Since those people dared to make a mess out of us, shouldn't we repay their kindness?"

"Young Commander is wise." The second in command understood what Long Qian Xing wanted and silently lit a candle to the enemy. It was one thing for them to attack the headquarter but another thing to do it under his supervision.

Their young commander hated being played the most.

And the more enraged he was, the more calculative and ruthless he would be. Even those who were following him when he created mess in the Capital City not long ago always felt that their leader was really two faced.

He was smiling, yes.

But there was no mirth and what he said would often times be the cruelest thing ever in the world.

When it was morning, the soldiers found out the reason why Long Qian Xing was feared by even his own soldier. He led an independent army, which was why he was not under any other commanders. It was different from Feng Ao Si who was under his father and several others, thus had to follow their arrangement.

At least, for now.

"That's another fire."

Nan Luo was speechless when he was watching the commotion from the side. He was recuperating and then climbed the tree because he was not that badly injured. Just some superficial wounds.

He was fine after some rest.

Feng Ao Kuai was sitting beside Nan Luo with his bow and arrow ready in his hand. "Do you think Young Commander Long might want to cause forest fire?"

"That's not impossible."

Hearing that, Feng Ao Kuai was simply speechless. Right now, he was really wondering what this annoying young commander was planning to do. Though, seeing him destroying armies after armies did look pretty neat and nice.

He raised his head as a smile tugged at the corner of his lips. "It's more important for us to win the battle."

"Through this way?" Nan Luo was also speechless.

Feng Ao Kuai was silent for a while. "Young Commander Long had an independent army, which is why he's not under any other generals unless he's participating in a big war. Even then, he and some other commanders have some freedom."

Some freedom.

Naturally, Nan Luo had also learned about this matter. Due to the fact that the distance from the frontline to the Capital City was far, it was inconvenient for all the generals and commander submitting their war plan. They have a certain degree of freedom when dealing with the skirmish around here.

For smaller armies, they would be handled by the young commanders who were given this small privilege. Most of these young commanders were the descendant of powerful general or they were an extremely powerful commoner who gained merit through some methods in the battlefield.

The second one was too rare, though.

Wei Da Kingdom Army was unable to cope up well with Long Qian Xing's massive counterattack. The path that they thought to be save couldn't be used anymore. Instead, they were losing their soldiers in Long Qian Xing's hand.

Dong! Dong!

As the war drum sounded, it signaled the end of the third day.

This time, the brats didn't have anything to do as they simply watched from the back. But looking at how the enemies were retreating from Long Qian Xing's extremely fierce attack, they felt somewhat satisfied.

Serve them right for launching a sneak attack on them.

"Is there any reason why we pick this hill to be the new headquarter?" Nan Luo asked as he jumped down the tree.

Feng Ao Kuai followed suit and smiled faintly. "Naturally, it's because of the advantages of this area. You see, there are many times that a battle could be ended by controlling the enemy's headquarter."

Hearing that, Nan Luo's eyes gleamed. "Please tell me more about it, Cousin Ao Kuai."
