"That's good." Long Qian Xing could see that even if they agreed to cooperate, their inner feelings might not really able to adapt to this situation as of yet. After all, they were used to be the leader of their respective family.
To be listening to other people's words and lead, they would not be used to it.
But it would be temporary.
He had no interest in taking care of them forever. Once Shi Long Kingdom set off from this place, he would also go.
"In that case, shall we start to discuss about the exact plan?" Ming Shi Hong grinned. "Oh right, there are several other smaller families with their soldiers who come with us. I'll introduce you to them later."
"Yes."
With that, the discussion started to revolve about the matter of the war tomorrow. No matter what happened, it was impossible for them to forget about Shi Long Kingdom that was knocking on their door.
Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing also learned more about this place.
There was no king or Emperor in this place but the areas filled with resources had been turned into cities with three big families leading. The one at the north, which was the closest to the border with Shi Long Kingdom was Pan Family. Below him was Ming Family, who was located right in the middle. At the west area, which was the closest towards Fei Yang Kingdom was Ye Family.
The three families had been here for a long time and accumulated a lot of money and power over the years. It was also because of their status and ability that they were unwilling to bow down to other people easily.
The appearance of Shi Long Kingdom just made them want to fight back and made sure that no one would be able to take what belong to them.
But that one battle had already made them despaired.
It was even more so because they knew this was not the entire power Shi Long Kingdom could exert. Nevertheless, they didn't want to give up and continued to fight. That was when Fei Yang Kingdom appeared.
If they were besieged by two kingdoms, they would have despaired even more. Thankfully, the relationship between the two kingdoms were not very good and they could reach an agreement like this.
The discussion continued.
…
<The opposite side, Shi Long Kingdom's South Area>
General Ruan was calm after the gong sounded. Originally, they were not planning on using these gongs and continued strike the people here. If possible, it would have been better to just eliminate them all and conquered it in one fell swoop.
Unfortunately, Fei Yang Kingdom appeared.
If they didn't retreat and fight into the night, the advantage would fall on Fei Yang Kingdom's side. After all, who would be more familiar with this terrain more than the people who have been living in this area for a long time?
With the help from Fei Yang Kingdom, it was inevitable that they would be gaining even more momentum.
General Ruan thought about it and chose to retreat decisively.
His action was also followed with General Qiang and the other general, General Lei. The total of generals who came to the south this time was actually four generals, but two generals were newly recruited from the south when they conquered them some time ago. Shi Long Kingdom invested a lot of effort and time to conquer this place.
How could they just give it up when they saw Fei Yang Kingdom?
"General Ruan." General Qiang greeted when he saw General Ruan.
In terms of seniority, the one with the highest status was General Ruan. Many people didn't like General Ruan because they felt that he was too soft and indecisive. But when it came to the frontline, they still handed over the important position to General Ruan cheekily.
This action made others felt rather perplexed but they couldn't do anything.
After all, the person in question was indeed someone capable even if there were some criticism thrown over to him from the back.
"Have you met with the generals from Fei Yang Kingdom?" General Ruan nodded and asked directly.
"Yes." General Qiang's face was dark. "I see General Jun."
General Xing and General Jun.
These two generals seemed to be moving together and assigned together after General Jun's rise. It was strange for others because they knew that Long Qian Xing was able to do many things by himself.
But after being paired with General Jun, his combat effectiveness seemed to double.
"Is she really a young woman?" General Ruan was more interested in another matter.
General Qiang passed a look at General Ruan and sneered. "Why are you asking? Your wife would not be happy if you bring another concubine."
"I'm just curious." General Ruan smiled. "Shi Long Kingdom is not as courageous as Fei Yang Kingdom in the implementation of female general."
There was also a female general in Shi Long Kingdom, but her power was not very big. She was placed near the Capital City and the task was not very important. It looked like she was just there to be their lackey rather than a proper general.
On the other hand, the two female generals from Fei Yang Kingdom were flying here and there, making their names resounded on the battlefield.
General Ruan sighed at this.
His daughter is also a commander on the battlefield and aspired to become a general, but after seeing how the female general from Shi Long Kingdom was treated, she didn't seem to be willing to rise her rank. Instead, she has been staying as a commander under him in order to have more 'freedom' on the battlefield. "There's hierarchy that cannot be overthrown." General Qiang was not surprised. Compared to Fei Yang Kingdom, Shi Long Kingdom was indeed much more patriarchal. At the very least, many people wanted to continue to implement it in their lives compared to other kingdoms.
As a result, some capable women were not able to truly exhibit their abilities.
