Chapter 1807 North Border of Shi Long Kingdom
With General Ruan's lead, General Qiang and the others calmed down and began to arrange their plan for tomorrow's battle. If it was possible, it would be best to switch their opponents and rearrange it.
But if the opponent wanted to oppose it, it might also be difficult.
The night passed quietly.
The next day, the battle started again and Nan Hua still stayed with Ming Shi Hong. As he engaged in battle with General Qiang, she was busy killing countless soldiers in Shi Long Kingdom's side.
Clang! Slash! Slash!
…
<Long distance away, border between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom, east Fei Yang Kingdom and north Shi Long Kingdom>
Clang! Clang! Clang!
General Feng was given the order to attack Shi Long Kingdom fiercely. He had been able to conquer two cities so far, but the progress was far cry from the energetic Shangguan Xian who was located further south from his location.
Even if he was already doing his best, it didn't seem to be working so well. "General Feng, General Wu is here with the reinforcement."
"General Wu?" General Feng's eyebrows furrowed. His opponent so far was General Fang, who was defending very well, causing a stalemate with him and Shi Long Kingdom. This was the main reason why he was not able to advance so far.
But if there were reinforcement from Shi Long Kingdom's side, then he might be forced to step back.
The number of soldiers under his hand had decreased by around 10 to 15% from the beginning of the war. It might not seem much, but it was still in thousands while the war had only been going on for three months more or less.
With the limited number of soldiers under his hand, General Feng was not able to attack properly. "General Feng, shall we retreat?" General Feng's adjutant asked carefully.
General Feng was also considering about this matter. There might still be a lot of soldiers in his side, but if he were to continue fighting, there was possibility that he would be eliminated sooner.
His goal here was simply to be diversion, attracting part of Shi Long Kingdom's manpower so that Shangguan Xian's work would be easier.
But if the opponent was too strong, he would have to retreat.
'Retreat or not?'
"We'll see the battle tomorrow, but make the necessary preparation to retreat," General Feng gave his order.
"Yes, General Feng!"
"The soldiers, follow me!"
"UOoooooooo!"
"ONWARD!" General Feng shouted from the front.
The soldiers all responded wildly, shouting in response. Even if some of them could see that the opponents were having reinforcement, but so what?
They will follow their general until the very end!
"Fight back!" General Fang from Shi Long Kingdom saw that the soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom had no intention to retreat, so he also shouted. "Break their formation! Let the soldiers from General Wu to come and help!"
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound of metal clashing reverberated on the battlefield.
General Wu charged forward, rushing to the middle of General Feng's formation and avoided General Feng.
"Hmph!" General Feng snorted. "Raise the flag!"
General Feng arranged the soldiers once more then ordered for them to march forward and continue fighting. Their target was to block the route and prevented the soldiers from destroying their formation.
"GO!"
"Ooooooooooooo!"
The soldiers rushed forward, clashing against each other in an attempt of killing the other party. They were all doing great job, moving forward, fending their enemies and pushed them to the back.
It was chaotic, yet the soldiers were still following the order and formation set.
General Wu soon found out that he was not able to destroy General Feng's soldiers' formation and was forced to go back. However, it was not that easy to deal with him. "Send the few commanders to split up! We're going to destroy their formation from the inside."
"Yes, General Wu!"
General Fang was a distance away from General Wu, but he could see the meaning from General Wu's decision. The corner of his lips curled up in satisfaction. The defeat in Fei Yang Kingdom's hand many years ago made him angry but he was helpless and injured badly.*
It took him a long time to recover and able to hop back to the battlefield. As for General Wu's decision in the battle?
Due to the fact that the distance from the frontline to the Capital City was far, it was inconvenient for all the generals and commander submitting their war plan. They have a certain degree of freedom when dealing with the skirmish around here.
For smaller armies, they would be handled by the young commanders who were given this small privilege. Most of these young commanders were the descendant of powerful general or they were an extremely powerful commoner who gained merit through some methods in the battlefield.
They were used to fight on their own without even reporting.
Not to mention, they were now on the defending side and had to push Fei Yang Kingdom back. No matter how strange the tactic was, General Fang will still follow General Wu's plan. "Support General Wu's movement. Don't let them fail so easily!"
"Yes!"
Clang! Clang! Clang!
General Feng could see that the previously battle of physical power was slowly turning into the battle of wits. General Wu was planning to eliminate most of his soldiers to push him back, but General Feng didn't want to retreat so easily. Clang! Clang! Clang!
With each passing time, the number of death soldiers increased.
Both sides suffered causalities.
But neither side was willing to back down. General Feng was able to maintain the formation and prevented General Wu from taking advantage of the scattered soldiers. It was not only Shi Long Kingdom who had powerful commanders!
Bang!
"Gah!"
"General Wu, it's not good!"
General Wu watched as the commanders he sent in batches were being eliminated by several commanders from the other side and his eyes narrowed. "When did General Feng become so powerful?"
