Chapter 1660 The Arrangement (2)
So, only the bottom people were still spared.
Even if their number seemed large, the number of people who had touched the secret of the Lin Family was very few.
Lin Xia was one of them.
The others?
Perhaps no one.
And with this, there was no doubt that there wouldn't be any so called Lin Family again for the next few decades. Emperor Yang Zhou was not a person who would care too much about them and didn't really approve of this practice.
At least, that was what Traveling Doctor Liu had seen so far.
"Master?" Shan Yu asked in a low voice when he saw Traveling Doctor Liu's appearance.
"I'm only thinking that it only need a generation to destroy the hard work of several generations before," Traveling Doctor Liu sighed.
He thought about the impending war between Fan Yi Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom and silently hoped that his first disciple would not be dragged.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis era was very unkind. It forced the people to adapt to the waging wars around the place. For many reasons, war hadn't ended yet.
The one who suffered the most are the people at the bottom. Because they were the one who experienced the cruelty of the war head on and had to watch as their beloved was killed or their hometown was razed.
Traveling Doctor Liu sighed deeply.
If only it was possible, he hoped that his disciples would not participate in war. Because no matter what the result, it would still step on the corpses of countless people.
The soldiers who laid their bodies in order to be able to reach this point.
"It's nothing. I'm waiting for lunch."
Shan Yu: "…" Master, if you want to lie, pick a better one. It's still far too early for lunch!
…
<Long distance away: border between Fan Yi Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom, Fan Yi Kingdom's side>
The war between Fan Yi Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom couldn't be said to be fierce. The condition at the north border of Fan Yi Kingdom was quite severe, making the people there had to focus there.
However, it didn't mean that they couldn't pay attention to what happened at the border with Fei Yang Kingdom.
With the fall of Zhang Xu Kingdom, the fear that Fei Yang Kingdom would stretch their claw towards them deepened.
Previously Fan Yi Kingdom's Emperor was able to calm down and wait. But when he kept on hearing of Zhang Xu Kingdom's loss along with the advance of the soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom, he was not able to calm down.
What if they also want to conquer Fan Yi Kingdom?
Could they just sit still and wait for them to come forward and raze their homeland to the ground?
They were not so stupid to the point that they would let the invaders come like that.
"How's the war going?" Fan Yi Kingdom's Emperor asked, his tone was low and filled with restraint.
After the death of his son due to that damn b*stard stupidity, the Emperor's temper had been very bad. He wanted to fight against Fei Yang Kingdom, but he knew better than to rush forward and fight.
But now… he had a bit of confidence.
At the very least, they were not in the passive situation where they were only waiting to be beaten. This time, they were more ready to face Fei Yang Kingdom and destroy the strong kingdom.
Seeing two kingdoms fell on Fei Yang Kingdom's hand in succession was clearly not a good feeling.
"Your Majesty, Great General Ji said that everything is going well. He's facing General Kai and the situation is quite good on his side."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGeneral Kai used to be part of Wei Da Kingdom several years before. But after Wei Da Kingdom's fall, he sided with Fei Yang Kingdom and had served them ever since. He was the one who stayed at the border between Fei Yang Kingdom and Fan Yi Kingdom.
The generals from Wei Da Kingdom who were left were only two, one stayed in the middle while the other one was this General Kai who stayed at the border.
For some reasons, Fei Yang Kingdom didn't actually leave behind many former generals from other kingdoms. Even now, it was uncertain who from Zhang Xu Kingdom sided with Fei Yang Kingdom.
"Is it possible to defeat General Kai before reinforcement arrives?" Fan Yi Kingdom's Emperor asked.
The minister paused. He certainly didn't have the answer needed for this kind of question, so he turned to look at Prime Minister Zhu who stood at the side.
Prime Minister Zhu cupped his fist. "Your Majesty, whether or not General Kai be defeated before the reinforcement arrives depends on how well Great General Ji arranged for the formation this time."
Neither positive nor negative answer.
While Prime Minister Zhu wanted to say that they would win, it was uncertain how the actual situation on the battlefield was. But Prime Minister Zhu was quite confident because he knew very well that Shi Long Kingdom wouldn't stay quiet after Fei Yang Kingdom defeated Zhang Xu Kingdom.
Facing two big kingdoms at once, it wouldn't be possible for Fei Yang Kingdom to react well.
This was the basis of their confidence and the reason why they decided to attack Fei Yang Kingdom at this period of time. If they were to miss this chance, it was estimated that they would not have any similar chance again in the near future.
"Is it possible to assign more generals?" Fan Yi Kingdom's Emperor was thinking of assigning more generals and soldiers to fight against Fei Yang Kingdom.
The ministers frowned.
There were only limited number of generals in Fan Yi Kingdom. Each and every single one of them had their own roles and position. Their north border had to be properly monitored in case those barbarians rushed over to attack.
But at the same time, they also needed to protect their south border.
"There should be someone whom we could rearrange," Prime Minister Zhu said carefully.
