"The number of your soldiers have reduced quite significantly from the war," Great General Wei added.
"Indeed." General Chi knew that much. "I wouldn't have much hope to contend for the position as a great general like you and lead 100,000 soldiers. A bit more than 10,000 is already enough."
Great General Wei nodded.
His own soldiers amounted to be more than 100,000 in total on this frontline alone. However, there were still some commanders who were only cooperating with him and previously didn't belong in his army.
It was only after his promotion did he reach such an exaggerating number.
But the soldiers under Prime Minister Lei were also more or less the same number, which was why their clash couldn't finish so far.
There were several battles and the chaotic situation, but they couldn't break this deadlock with each other.
"Rest for now. I'll call you if there's anything else."
"Yes."
General Chi looked into the distance, sighing deeply. He finally returned to this land where he was born but he was no longer here as part of Zhang Xu Kingdom. Instead, he came as part of the conqueror.
What a fate.
Behind him, his nephew, Chi Tan Qiang, watched his uncle. When General Chi came to Fei Yang Kingdom, some of his family members were forced to follow because they were not accepted in Zhang Xu Kingdom anymore.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChi Tan Qiang's family was among them.
Watching his uncle from the back, Chi Tan Qiang's eyes flashed with a glint.
…
<Not long distance away from them, Long Qian Xing's side>
Long Qian Xing was not in a hurry and watched the soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom retreating. He nodded lightly, not surprised with Prime Minister Lei's decision.
They were retreating.
But at the same time, they were preparing themselves for a bigger and more ruthless war at the front.
He had already expected this much when he saw their movements.
"General Xing, the soldiers are well rested."
"We're going to go through circular line and follow from the east area." Long Qian Xing thought for a moment and then added, "Call Princess Jun to come when she's done with her business."
"Yes, General Xing."
While Long Qian Xing prepared his soldiers, Nan Hua walked around until she reached Nan Luo and the other's location.
At this time, Nan Luo was yelling at Feng Ao Kuai.
"Why did you add sugar to the dish? It's too sweet now!"
"I feel that you're lacking in sugar lately, Cousin." Feng Ao Kuai was sipping his own soup. "So I add some sugar for yours."
Nan Luo wanted to cry.
The soup was good and a bit salty, which was good. But after Feng Ao Kuai added some sugar, it tasted too sweet for his taste. He felt that he hadn't offended Feng Ao Kuai again lately.
Aside from some teasing…
"Eat and don't waste food. You're not in the Capital City and not a pampered young master." Feng Ao Kuai smiled at Nan Luo.
Nan Luo wanted to cry but no tears come out. He could only begrudgingly drink the sweet soup that Feng Ao Kuai gave to him.
Seeing Nan Luo's expression, Feng Ao Kuai felt a bit better. This cousin of his kept on teasing him, so Feng Ao Kuai gave some sugar on the latter's soup so that it tasted a bit too sweet.
Anyway, it wouldn't kill him.
Just that the taste of the food will be a bit strange.
"If you want a date on the battlefield, you can actually ask your mother," Nan Luo muttered after he had finished that sweet soup. He didn't like to eat sweet things, got it?
His mouth felt strange now.
Feng Ao Kuai looked at Nan Luo dangerously. "I feel that just once is not enough. How about if I add more sugar for your next meal."
"Damn it! Do you want to make me vomit?"
Nan Hua watched the two of them and guessed that Nan Luo bragged to Feng Ao Kuai about his experience with Wei Mu Qing. It seemed that Feng Ao Kuai couldn't stand Nan Luo's words and ended up taking small revenge.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe shook her head lightly.
Her twin brother was really naughty.
Slowly, Nan Hua stepped forward and the two of them noticed her presence when Xiao Yan coughed to remind them that someone had come.
Nan Luo's eyes widened. "Hu… I mean, Princess Jun, it's a pleasant surprise to see you here."
Feng Ao Kuai quickly stood up and cupped his fist. "Feng Ao Kuai greets Princess Jun."
Nan Hua nodded at the two of them. She had taken a brief look at their army and noticed that many of their soldiers were heavily injured. After this war was over, it was estimated that these two would need to take some break to recruit more soldiers.
"I come here for this." Nan Hua handed a scroll to Feng Ao Kuai. "The situation is a bit unstable. How you would like to proceed later on depend on your decision."
Feng Ao Kuai's eyes flashed at Nan Hua's words but he only cupped his fist.
Nan Luo blinked his eyes and turned to look at Feng Ao Kuai. What did his cousin planned without telling them again this time?
He felt that this cousin of his always had some secret with his twin sister, which made him rather annoyed.
"You two did great on the battlefield. Keep it up." Nan Hua looked at the two of them and smiled encouragingly.
Seeing Nan Hua's smile, the two of them were stunned on the spot.
Nan Luo felt that his twin sister was getting more beautiful.
Feng Ao Kuai was silently pressing his heart so that it wouldn't pound.
Nan Hua's face with a smile is truly a foul.
Even when they had gotten used with the fact that Nan Hua was really beautiful, they were not immune to her appearance.
Those who were not used to her… will definitely fall.
