Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1515 Da Yi City’s Battle

Nan Hua looked at the map in front of her and curtsied, signaling that she also agreed with the plan.

She had noticed that General Huan was battling at the areas near Da Yi City. Since Da Yi City had General Duan, they were not so worried. Not to mention, should Da Yi City fall, there was still Great General Nan who was 'idle.'

He had been staying in Central Region, trying his best to stabilize the area.

By now, there was not much he had to do.

It has been three years since Wei Da Kingdom fall, so it was only natural that most of the people had cooled down. They knew very well that they couldn't do anything but to accept the fate that was thrown to them. 

…

<Long Qian Xing's side>

After the order was given, Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua departed.

"Do you remember Da Yi City, Hua'er?" Long Qian Xing asked when they were on their way to Da Yi City. The soldiers under their commands were following behind them faithfully. 

Nan Hua nodded her head. "The blacksmith city."

Long Qian Xing chuckled when he heard Nan Hua's answer. Da Yi City was indeed known as blacksmith city. While the number of blacksmith had decreased due to the fact that Emperor Yang Zhou wanted to use them, there were still many of them there.

Not to mention, the younger generations were also interested in learning about smithing, so the profession remained quite popular among them.

It had attracted many of them to choose this profession.

After all, if they become a blacksmith, they didn't need to become a soldier and be sent to the frontline. For those who didn't want to fight battles, this was undeniably the best choice for them.

However, Da Yi City has become the frontline once more.

The peace they had was never long lasting for the past few decades.

"There are a few acquaintances there," Long Qian Xing said in a low voice. He was somewhat remembering the past when he conquered Da Yi City and fought. Back then, he was still much younger and hadn't become a general yet.

Acquaintances?

Nan Hua remembered Duan Shang Shao, whom she had asked for help in the past. Come to think about it, Mountain Xia had experienced several upgrades in terms of traps and defense thanks to the tools she asked Duan Shang Shao to make.

It was very useful.

"How about General Huan?"

"He's a relatively young general." Long Qian Xing rubbed his chin. "If I'm not wrong, General Huan is still in his late thirties and only got promoted recently by Zhang Xu Kingdom because of the lack of general."

Nan Hua nodded.

With the campaign from Fei Yang Kingdom and their rapid advance towards Zhang Xu Kingdom, it was not strange that Zhang Xu Kingdom's generals were facing a crisis.

First of all, their number was simply not enough compared to the generals from Fei Yang Kingdom who were sent to face them.

With them being targeted, several generals had already fallen over the years.

Zhang Xu Kingdom needed new blood.

And quick.

Thus, some 5000 men commanders who were powerful enough and had sufficient ability were promoted.

This included General Huan.

"He's fighting not far from Da Yi City and has been making advance there." Nan Hua tilted her head. "Da Yi City is in danger."

"General Duan can handle it." Long Qian Xing chuckled. "At the very least, he will not let Da Yi City fall."

"I see."

"Shall we talk about our cooperation later?" Long Qian Xing asked with a smile, changing the conversation seamlessly. 

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and nodded.

The two of them have been working together during this war against Zhang Xu Kingdom. The cooperation came in various forms and so far, it has been going well.

This time, they were going to cooperate again.

"Let's encircle him," Long Qian Xing stated his plan.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and thought for a moment before nodding. "In that case…"

The two of them started to discuss the details of the soldiers' placement and others. They have to work fast and for this matter, it would be better to finish the battle as soon as possible when they reached Da Yi City's areas.

…

<Da Yi City, General Duan and General Huan's location>

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The battle between General Duan and General Huan hadn't ended at all.

The two sides were fighting fiercely, trying their best to make sure that they would be able to obtain the advantage against the other party.

The long lasting battle and war had drained their stamina.

But neither side wanted to give up.

"For you to dare to come up, you sure have a lot of courage." General Duan looked at General Huan, who had climbed up the wall, with a black face. This damn general kept on provoking him.

If not because he had been learning how to be stable over the years, it was estimated that he would go forward and give this general a slap on his head.

General Huan sneered. "Since the chance presented itself, how come I not take it?"

"In that case, you have to be prepared to die." General Duan charged forward.

"Heh."

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The two generals clashed violently. Both sides understood that the main leader for this frontline was the two of them. Either one of them fall would mean the end and also the loss of their respective kingdom.

So the two of them go all out from the very beginning.

The soldiers around them consciously keep distance from them to avoid getting involved in the battle.

They didn't want to die yet.

In this battle, nether side has the advantage. But at the same time, it was hard to gain advantage over the other.

General Duan was still defending well.

The soldiers knew what to do even when he was not giving commands directly.
