Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 555 Second Day of the Joint War

　　"Your Majesty, the current arrangement made by Great General Nan so far is the best." Prime Minister Lan had naturally received the general tactics that General Nan used for their positioning. However, that positioning still had many loopholes.

　　These days, they were trying to change the arrangement, but the result was utter defeat from time to time.

　　It was so frustrating.

　　"I see." Emperor Yang Zhou glanced at the side where Prime Minister Bei was located. He was still standing calmly and aside from some beads of sweat on his face, he didn't look as worried as the others.

　　Probably, for a former merchant like Prime Minister Bei, he could definitely solve this matter by relying on money. Even if Fei Yang Kingdom were to fall, Prime Minister Bei would be able to stay alive as long as he spent enough money.

　　That was Emperor Yang Zhou's speculation.

　　Especially after he was nearly angered to death by the tactless Lin Yuan.

　　He really disliked merchants.

　　"In that case, continue."

　　"YES!"

　　Even with the strategy that Great General Nan propose, there were a lot of loopholes and some things that could go wrong. They had no other choice but to improve bit by bit and sent what they got to the frontline through the special code. It would take time, but they had to work even harder.

　　At the side, Song Chuan was also looking at the map in front of him as he racked his brain to think. There were some new changes in the road and so on, which was why almost all the map that was provided to them were renewed.

　　Thankfully, the supply chain was not interrupted.

　　Through Heng Xing City, they managed to deliver a large amount of supply. This caused the minister to know that they didn't need to worry about lacking supplies at the frontline. The soldiers could battle as they wished.

　　'Within a few years, Heng Xing City grow so much.' Song Chuan rubbed his chin. He was sure that if they won the battle, the governor of Heng Xing City would naturally receive a lot of attention from the Emperor. There might be some reshuffling done in order to make sure that this governor could be put into use best.

　　He put the thought to the back of his mind.

　　Song Chuan was not really good at military strategy, so he could only watch from the side and gave some help from time to time. Even if it was not much, he could at least offer some suggestion.

　　Though, they were all overruled.

　　...

　　The night passed quietly.

　　Some soldiers were nervous that there would be battle at night, but it seemed that their worry was unnecessary. The enemy didn't seem to have any intention to create an ambush at night.

　　It might also be too early. The battle had just started and everyone's vigilance was at the peak.

　　Nan Luo received his order and noticed that it was not much different from the day before. He scratched the back of his head. "I thought that there will be a different tactic for today."

　　"It's better be the same so that you can get used to your new rank." Feng Ao Kuai passed a look at Nan Luo. "Remember that if it's not because of emergency, your promotion should be in a few more weeks or month."

　　"I know."

　　In truth, Old Master Nan would like to have the two of them consolidated their position every more. But right now, there were a lot of deaths just from the first day alone and some reshuffle was necessary. Thus, some commanders were promoted to fill in the blanks.

　　This included Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai.

　　"I'm going first."

　　The soldiers were all lined up. Nan Luo swept his gaze to the group of people who were recruited to be part of his army. He knew that from now on, they would be working together.

　　"Who's the commander?" Nan Luo asked.

　　"Young Commander Nan, it's me." A man stepped forward and cupped his fist. "My name is Qiu Xian, Young Commander Nan."

　　"Commander Qiu, can you tell me more about your group?" Nan Luo looked at the commander in front of him. Based on his attire, he could guess that this commander had been at the battlefield longer than him. Different than when he first started as he recruited new soldier, the soldiers in front of him were all veterans.

　　Qiu Xian nodded and began to tell Nan Luo about his group. They were consisted of half cavalry and half infantry. There were no remarkable archers in their group because they were mostly roaming at the forefront.

　　"Now that there are 300 men, I need to know the tactic that you used to use." Nan Luo had his own code when he gave his men instruction. Sometimes, it was impossible for him to give order all the time, so the soldiers were already trained.

　　It was mostly Xiao Yan who supervised should they become too scattered and gave the necessary order because Nan Luo would often be busy challenging some commander. But there were also times when it was Nan Luo who gave the order, especially when he was the one who lead.

　　Qiu Xian nodded and explained.

　　The tactics different quite greatly and it would be hard for them to match up with each other if it was this way.

　　"It's impossible to train new tactic immediately…" Nan Luo furrowed his eyebrows. "But if I ask you to lead your soldier, that would reduce the effectiveness of this promotion."

　　"Young Master, you can set a few rules that's easy to follow for now," Nan Hua suggested from the back.

　　"What is it, Nan?"

　　"For example, when the soldiers are already scattered, you can give order to go towards one direction. It can be marked with a flag or something like that. Meanwhile, the two groups will work on their own most of the time and only cooperated when you're dueling a commander for a long time to maintain the circle…."
