Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1473 Fury

The night passed by quietly.

But all parties knew that this was only the calm before the storm. The sudden betrayal of General Cao would definitely irk a lot of people from Fei Yang Kingdom's side.

They had to be prepared for the revenge that Fei Yang Kingdom brewed.

…

<Fei Yang Kingdom's side, Emperor Yang Zhou's location at the long border between Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom>

For the war between Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom, Emperor Yang Zhou personally witnessed it and even commanded the soldiers under him. Great General Wei also appreciated his presence because the morale of the soldiers was almost all time high.

It was to the point that Great General Wei wondered whether they would be able to fall asleep because of their excitement.

At this time, Emperor Yang Zhou had a meeting with Prime Minister Lan, one of the two prime ministers who came to accompany him to the frontline. After all, it was impossible for the two prime ministers to leave their Emperor on the battlefield without anyone to accompany him.

"The situation on the border with Shi Long Kingdom is relatively stable. Great General Long, General Shangguan, and the others managed to deal with their chariots well," Prime Minister Lan said slowly.

While the battle between Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom heated up, Shi Long Kingdom seemed to take this time as the perfect time for them to launch a sneak attack. It was annoying, but the generals stationed there were able to respond in time.

So far, there was no considerable loss.

The two sides were into deadlock once again.

Emperor Yang Zhou nodded. "The chariots are one of the few weapons that only Shi Long Kingdoms liked to use."

"Indeed."

Due to their massive resources because Shi Long Kingdom's territory was the biggest among all of the big kingdoms, there were various strange items in Shi Long Kingdom that was used for war.

War chariots were only one of them.

There were still many others.

Some had been used against them and some hadn't.

"But Shi Long Kingdom is having a fierce battle at the south. It seems that their action of expansion had touched some powerful people there." Prime Minister Lan smiled happily.

As long as it was the other kingdoms who had troubles, he would be happy. Because this would indirectly mean that they didn't have time to trouble them on the border and focused their resources too much.

In terms of the number of soldiers, Fei Yang Kingdom had been recruiting and preparing for total war ever since Emperor Yang Zhou's grandfather's era. Thanks to that, their number of soldiers could be said to be comparable with Shi Long Kingdom.

But even with that, they definitely couldn't clash head on without preparation.

That would be too stupid.

"Focus on Zhang Xu Kingdom for now."

"Yes. General Cao betrayed the army and join hands with Zhang Xu Kingdom." Prime Minister Lan's eyes were filled with fury when he reported this matter. Only the Heaven knew how much he wanted to raise his sword once more and hacked that damn General Cao to death when he received this report.

Emperor Yang Zhou's movement paused. There was a chill from the bottom of his eyes while his body exuded coldness.

Each and every single commanders and generals in Fei Yang Kingdom had received unprecedented freedom and also a lot of resources. It was all because of Emperor Yang Zhou's ambition to unite all the big kingdoms into one kingdom.

They had been treated very well.

But it seemed that they had been treated too well to remember that they shouldn't bit the hands that feed them.

"He's siding with Zhang Xu Kingdom now?" Emperor Yang Zhou asked slow, his tone was laced with knife.

Prime Minister Lan's body trembled involuntary. He looked at the young Emperor in front of him and quickly lowered his eyes again. After being tempered by the treatment of former Prime Minister Bei in the past, Emperor Yang Zhou was rarely angry.

After all, he could even endure being suppressed even though he was the one sitting on the throne.

Too many clowns were jumping around him.

But now, Prime Minister Lan knew that Emperor Yang Zhou was truly angry.

"This…"

"What did Long Qian Xing said?" Emperor Yang Zhou asked.

He was using Long Qian Xing's full name and no longer the title, which showed how angry he was.

Prime Minister Lan thought of what Long Qian Xing relayed to him and thought about how to say this to Emperor Yang Zhou. In the end, he could only bit the bullet and spoke out, "General Xing said to leave this matter to him."

No matter how he twisted the words, he only remembered the messenger said that Long Qian Xing wanted to handle this matter on his own.

Seeing General Cao betraying Fei Yang Kingdom under his eyes and unable to kill that person would definitely make Long Qian Xing extremely angry. There was no way Long Qian Xing would be willing to stay silent under such treatment.

Emperor Yang Zhou sneered. "Good."

Prime Minister Lan blinked his eyes.

This…

Was Emperor Yang Zhou agreeing with Long Qian Xing's decision or not? Does he want to change some arrangement?

In terms of warfare, Emperor Yang Zhou was not that bad and had been the one leading behind the scene. It was not impossible for Emperor Yang Zhou to be the one to arrange for some matters and gave direct order.

"Your Majesty?"

"Some people's actions are indeed crossing the line." Emperor Yang Zhou closed his eyes and when he opened it again, he had regained his composure as if that rage had never belonged to him in the first place.

Prime Minister Lan waited at the side patiently.

Emperor Yang Zhou raised his head. "Leave Long Qian Xing be. If he can't settle him down, arrange for Great General Wei to make a move."
