Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 963: The Winter Battle (2)

While it might sound a lot, Nan Hua knew very well that most generals would already lead over 20,000 soldiers. Some of them could even lead much more soldiers under them. It was all because only with a large number of soldiers would they be able to cause an earth shattering changes.     

And Nan Hua knew very well that Yu Jin was capable of leading more soldiers.     

She just didn't want to put all of her card in front of Zhang Xu Kingdom, especially when Wu Shan was still protecting their tribe's village.     

"It's enough."     

"Yes?" Wei Lian blinked his eyes.     

"It's nothing."     

Nan Hua waved her hand to dismiss Wei Lian and stood at the front, watching the two soldiers clashed against each other. She could see that Prime Minister Lei was using his soldiers to control Yu Jin's movement.     

He opened trap here and there, and force Yu Jin to pick one of them because if she didn't, she wouldn't be able to move at all.     

It must have been frustrating.     

Time passed fleetingly.     

When it was night time, the gong from the two sides sounded and the troops ceased their attacks. They returned to their respective camps to rest for the night.     

Bang!     

"Damn that Prime Minister. If he's in front of me, I would like to skin him alive." Yu Jin trotted back into the camp. She felt really frustrated because Prime Minister Lei seemed to be able to see through every layer of calculation that she had inside her head.     

And with her being the sole leader of Mountain Tribe, there was not much tactic that she could use.     

If only Wu Shan is here, she would be able to ask him to help her advance through other areas. That way, Prime Minister Lei would have to split his focus to deal with the two different forces.     

Unfortunately, she couldn't do that.     

Wei Lian had to protect the rear in case there was something wrong. After all, behind this place is still the Mountain Tribe's mountains.     

"Jin Jie," Nan Hua called.     

Yu Jin halted in her steps. She turned around almost immediately and ran towards Nan Hua. "Hua'er! Where did you go for the past few months? Do you know how many times I Have to face that damned prime minister? With his brain, he should have just become a strategist rather than military advisor!"     

Nan Hua was speechless.     

It was naturally because Prime Minister Lei was very proficient in strategy and tactics that he was selected as the Military Advisor. Zhang Xu Kingdom is strong, but it was only because of the few people who were protecting it.     

As for the current emperor?     

Peh, it would be good enough if he didn't sell the entire kingdom out first thing first when his life was threatened. Even now, he had been using the treasury to enjoy luxury while the soldiers were busy with wars.     

Swish!     

Nan Hua evaded Yu Jin's hug and looked at the other party hesitantly. She had naturally seen how Yu Jin acted and felt that her new sister really needed more help.         

"You can ask for reinforcement from Fei Yang Kingdom."     

"Reinforcement from where? General Wei is busy at the frontline there and didn't Fei Yang Kingdom have to stabilize your new territory that previously belong to Wei Da Kingdom?" Yu Jin was not stupid.     

She might stay on the mountain most of the time, but she still followed the recent development from various sides. One of them was naturally about Fei Yang Kingdom and the previous war between them and Wei Da Kingdom.     

"You should have taken Wei Da Kingdom in on big scoop rather than waiting for them to strengthen themselves like this."     

"And end up bordering all of the big kingdoms?"     

Yu Jin then shut up.     

She knew very well that the military generals in Fei Yang Kingdom was simply not enough. There were some who were actually quite capable and would become the future general, but right now, they were not ready.     

Fei Yang Kingdom couldn't possibly force their way out and caused themselves to be mired in war from all sides.     

That would be very devastating.     

Wei Da Kingdom has always been the most pitiful one as it bordered all of the kingdoms. But because of their capabilities in terms of fighting on the water, they have been able to protect their land.     

Not to mention, if Wei Da Kingdom fall, the other kingdom would definitely attack it in order to get a piece of the fat meat.     

"Fine, fine, I'm not really cut out to be a military advisor who's watching the entire battle." Yu Jin then grinned and pointed at her tent. "You're here to help me, right? Shall we have a chat first?"     

"Ok."     

Nan Hua herself didn't have any soldiers under her. She could hire people, but their number wouldn't be that much. Not to mention, the real forces under her were mostly assassins.     

Asking them to be soldiers who fought in the open was naturally out of the question.     

Most of them were only skilled in terms of trickery and not close combat. If she really asked them to participate in the war, they would need to temper their bodies to be stronger first.     

There were only few people who were qualified to truly participate in the war.     

Thud!     

"It's so tiring to face that damn Prime Minister." Yu Jin sprawled on the chair prepared for her. She didn't really care about etiquette as she pointed to the next chair. "You can sit there."     

"Mhm."     

"Do you have any plan or whatsoever when you come here? There are around 40,000 soldiers under me this time. I can lend you 5,000 soldiers."     

5,000?     

Nan Hua looked at her new sister in surprise. "Is that not too many?"     

"The soldiers are only good at using their muscles and not their brain. And even if I lead so many of them, we still haven't been able to breakthrough." Yu Jin snorted. "Also, Ah Shan himself lead over 20,000 men on his own. You're just a bit short from him."
