Chapter 893: Ambush and Noise
As they climbed to the rocks, Feng Ao Kuai could see that there were a lot of soldiers camping there. They didn't light up fire yet, but they walked around while guarding. Some of them had already went to the tents to sleep.
Feng Ao Kuai's eyes glinted when he saw that.
"Ready? NOW!"
Along with his shout, the soldiers released their arrows. They couldn't aim properly, so they just aim for those that looked darker and looked like humans in front of them.
Gah!
"There's an ambush!"
"Where's the night guard?"
"Help!"
"Akh!"
Reloading and firing, Feng Ao Kuai gave the order for the soldiers to continue. He looked at his own arrow before tying a cloth and lit it in fire. Afterwards, Feng Ao Kuai shoot the arrow towards the tent there.
Fire immediately spread.
"Fireee!"
With fire, they could see their enemies better and shoot them. While they continued to attack, Feng Ao Kuai lit another one and aimed at a different tent. He didn't want to let these people get away.
"They're over there!"
"Attack them!"

At the other two sides, Si Kang had already lead the soldiers forward. The two groups clashed with each other, sounds of metal clashing reverberated in the battlefield.
It was chaotic.
"Ring it!" Feng Ao Kuai yelled.
There were several people whom he had assigned to make noise with the wooden bucket as they continued their battle. The noise confused them as it came from many directions on the rocks.
"Just climb!" A commander from Wei Da Kingdom shouted. He's the leader of this group of people and naturally will not be swayed by momentary chaos. Even if they were caught off guard, they could still recover.
"Kill those people at the rocks!"
Feng Ao Kuai's eyes narrowed when he saw the people moving towards him. Unlike Nan Luo whose soldiers would be able to switch to melee swiftly, the soldiers who were staying on the rocks with him mostly specialized in long distance.
It was also the reason why he had to make the fire for them to be able to continue attacking.
"The melee team, ready to go…"
Before Feng Ao Kuai could give order, he could hear screams from the front. The soldiers who were approaching them were killed one by one.
"Continue shooting."
A cold and short order, but it was a very relieving voice.
Feng Ao Kuai smiled and quickly gave the order for his soldiers to continue shooting their arrows. With Nan Hua helping him here, he knew that there was no need for him to worry about these soldiers reaching him.
In terms of trust, both he and Nan Luo trusted Nan Hua greatly.
Swish! Slash!
Nan Hua moved agilely among the soldiers to kill those who approached closer to the rocks. She looked at the commander, who was trying to get close and swiftly approached him.
She had counted the number of people in this area.
There are approximately 2000 people with at least a third of them had died under Feng Ao Kuai's attack.
The ambush was very successful.
"Damn you! Just who are you?" The commander from Wei Da Kingdom shouted in anger.
"Your killer."
Slash!
With a swift movement, Nan Hua immediately killed the commander. The nearby soldiers were stunned and terrified.
"AHHhhhh!"
"Commanderrrrrr!"
Screams of terror filled the area.
Many soldiers who were at the other end of the camp had already chosen to run away. They didn't know how many their enemies were and with the loss of their commander, they had lost their morale.
Thud!
Clang! Slash! Bang!
Various sounds were made on the battlefield.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoon, it was all done.
"We're done here." Feng Ao Kuai smiled and walked down the rocks. He inspected the camp and noticed that there were quite a lot of food left on their tent. It was mostly dried meat or some dry rations, but it would be nice for them to be able to get some additional food.
Nan Hua nodded and ran to the top of the rock. She looked into the distance and saw that Nan Luo was also finishing. It seemed that Nan Luo's basic was better than Feng Ao Kuai, or at least, it was better in terms of close combat.
After Feng Ao Kuai had ordered for his soldiers to carry the dry rations and then fill the buckets with water, he climbed up too. Noticing Nan Hua's gaze, he smiled bitterly. "I'm trying to build the army with clear differentiation of their role, but it seems that when we need to switch role, it's harder to do so."
"You train their specialization; Luo is training them to be versatile." Nan Hua glanced at Feng Ao Kuai. "There's no wrong or right in war and battles. You just have to pick the most suitable way for you to fight."
The most suitable way.
Feng Ao Kuai thought for a moment and nodded.
There was no need for him to be exactly the same with others. Everyone had their own advantage and disadvantages. It was only this time his disadvantage caused his battle to be harder that Nan Hua decided to help him.
In other situation, he might be better than Nan Luo and no longer in that disadvantages.
After all, there were countless battle situation that he could possibly face in the future.
"You're right. Thanks, Nan."
Nan Hua nodded.
When there were no one else around them, she would not follow the basic etiquette and treated Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai as young masters. There was no need for her to do so because they were all siblings and cousin.
"Let's go and check on Luo. I'm worried that he might have destroyed half of the buckets used for water."
Nan Hua: "…"
It didn't take long for them to gather the necessary water and got the loot of dry rations. When they made their way back to the camp, Old Master Nan was happy at their result.
