Chapter 539 Regrouping

　　More and more people gathered at the High Pass. The meeting between the general and the commanders commenced. Even though the soldiers were already starting to be moved, the meeting of their commanders had only happened afterwards when they were already gathered.

　　Nan Luo sat at the back, looking at the large number of commanders in front of him. He felt extremely tense for the first time in his life.

　　"Relax a bit." Feng Ao Kuai noticed that Nan Luo was nervous. "We're just small fries in this battle, so you don't have to be so pressured."

　　"Even if I'm nothing more than a small fry, I'm still worried if I make a mistake," Nan Luo whispered back. A mistake of a small commander wouldn't affect the battlefield that much. But his mistake would surely cause his chance of promotion took much longer time. It was not something that he could accept easily.

　　"You'll be fine as long as you conduct yourself just how you have been for the past month or two." Feng Ao Kuai didn't seem to be that worried. He had the confidence that as a mere 100 men commander, he would at least not be placed at difficult position. At that time, as long as he performed well, he was confident that he would be promoted.

　　Nan Luo stayed silent and watched as the generals were debating at the front. There was really no place for them to even speak up. Everything was decided by those at the very front with their grandfather holding the rein.

　　It didn't take long before their placement and the plan was decided. Of course, they didn't know the specific detail. That meeting was nothing more than formality for them to be able to participate.

　　"We're going down the pass to meet the soldiers at the valley below." Feng Ao Kuai's expression was not too good when he saw the arrangement that was made for him. His capabilities were mostly to guard on top of the wall and his specialized skill was archery. If he had to climb down, didn't it mean that he had to replace opportunity to fire his shoot at harder trajectory.

　　"You can use swords," Nan Luo consoled.

　　Feng Ao Kuai sighed. When he first came to Nan Family Residence, he did spend a long of time practicing how to use sword. However, it didn't mean that he was an expert at that because his skill was still relatively average.

　　At least, he could protect himself.

　　After that meeting, the two of them headed to their respective resting place. They had to move to the valley because the pass would be closed and rocks would be piled up to prevent those people from being able to break the door. It was a rather primitive method, but it was quite successful so far.

　　"Let's go and have some rest."

　　"Ok."

　　Hou Liang was following the two of them. Actually, Hou Lin was also located not far from their location, but he would not show his face. After all, he didn't really have any special position aside from being Old Master Nan's guard.

　　Tomorrow, he would protect them from a distance since the mountains could hide a lot of people.

　　"Hou Liang, are you going to stay with us all the time?" Nan Luo asked in amusement.

　　Hou Liang looked at the two of them and sighed. "Xiao Yan and Si Kang will be tasked to protect you two. If you encounter anyone you can't face in your current state, you have to retreat immediately."

　　"I know."

　　"We're not that stupid."

　　After being tempered in the real battlefield, Nan Luo had started to lose part of his hot bloodedness. He realized that there were many people who were much stronger than him and continued to temper himself so that he would be able to go against them. Not to mention, he was only a 100 men commander, which meant that there were not many soldiers who could support him.

　　He couldn't enter too deep.

　　He had to pay attention to many things.

　　At first, he did become a bit overwhelmed. But by now, Nan Luo had no problem at all in small battles and skirmish. With Feng Ao Kuai fighting with him, the two of them produced high efficiency that was rarely seen in many other armies.

　　"Good."

　　Feng Ao Kuai glanced towards the closed gate as he walked. For some reason, he felt as if he was being targeted by someone and that there was someone who was watching him intently. However, the feeling disappeared as soon as it appeared as the two of them walked towards the side valley, close to the area where General Long was located.

　　Nan Luo, who was originally happy, had his face scrunched when he saw the young man who stood not far from him.

　　"Why are you here?" Nan Luo groaned.

　　Long Qian Xing glanced at Nan Luo and let out a chuckle. "Where do you think I should be located if not with my father?"

　　"…The wall?"

　　"I'm not suitable there." Long Qian Xing looked at Feng Ao Kuai and nodded. He was tasked to help his father and being a 3000 men commander meant that he would definitely be able to influence the war in a large scale.

　　He knew how important this battle would be, so his expression was also very solemn and not as easy going as it usually be.

　　Though, there was still the same annoying smile on his face.

　　"Are there any other young commander?" Feng Ao Kuai asked.

　　Long Qian Xing nodded. "Feng Ao Si is in your camp too. Haven't you met with him?"

　　"I'll see him later." Feng Ao Kuai was not exactly excited to see his older brother again. He knew how annoying that young man could be, so he didn't have any intention of greeting him yet.

　　"There's Chi Song Lian, Young Master of Chi Family." Long Qian Xing tilted his head and smirked. "You have met with him in the past too."
