Chapter 554 Result of the First Day of the Joint War (2)

  It was not like there were a lot of casualties, but many of them were wounded because they couldn't follow Feng Ao Si all the time. They were forced to follow him from a distance and didn't manage to regroup in time when it was necessary.

  Thus, Feng Ao Si was practically fighting at disadvantageous situation.

  Thanks to Dai, he managed to avoid the worst situation where all the soldiers scattered without leader and died in the hands of the enemy. But it was still not a pleasant condition when there were a lot of people who were wounded.

  Hou Liang directly give order for Feng Ao Si to be part of the defense team for the second day.

  This was why Feng Ao Si was so listless.

  "If you can observe well, you will have a chance to participate in the third day," Nan Luo consoled.

  "Will there be a third day?"

  Nan Luo was silent for some time. "I don't know."

  If it was possible, everyone wanted the battle to end that very day. But was it even possible? Everyone knew that it was nothing more than a pipe dream for them to have the battle end so soon. With only one severe causalities from the opponent side and some few thousands of soldiers' death, how could it be possible to deter them from trying to destroy Fei Yang Kingdom?

  That was clearly impossible.

  "There should be. Unless Fei Yang Kingdom lose so badly that we can't even preserve for another day." Feng Ao Kuai turned around then walked to his tent. He had to rest because he had already overworked his brain for this battle today. Tomorrow would be equally heavy day.

  "Let's go and have some rest."

  "Yes."

  Nan Hua also followed Nan Luo to his tent. There was no way Nan Luo would allow her to sleep in any other tent but the one with him.

  ...

  The Opposite Side

  "Severely wounded?" Qi Kan Tian arched his eyebrows, his tone was rather nonchalant. It gave people the impression that he would not care about the fate of that person named General Wu.

  "Yes."

  Qi Kan Tian nodded and waved his hand. The messenger understood the que and silently left. After he was being left alone, Qi Kan Tian took another sip of the tea in front of him. He naturally didn't have any intention to care for Shi Long Kingdom's loss.

  "The other generals from Shi Long Kingdom are busy mourning, Your Majesty. Would it be too much for you to show your face?" Qi Xue couldn't help but ask.

  "Even if I come, what differences would it be?" Qi Kan Tian asked in a low voice. He snorted. "Those famous generals are all already getting older. It's time for the younger generation to start to emerge. The so called Heavenly General, River General, Great General, and those others…. It was time for them to step down."

  Those high and mighty generals were already famous from the time when Qi Kan Tian was not even born yet. They already had grandchildren and some even had great grandchildren, yet they were still busy swinging their sword at the battlefield and even proclaimed to be able to fight an everlasting battle.

  Their era had long passed.

  But they refused to back down.

  For these generals, the battlefield was already like their second home. Unless they died, they would never move back from the battlefield.

  Only a very few of them did retire.

  And those people didn't come here.

  "It's like a gathering of old timer." Qi Kan Tian snorted.

  Qi Xue was utterly speechless when she heard that the Emperor said. She decided that it would be better for her to stay silent. He was the emperor and naturally, he could say anything that he liked.

  However, she did wonder when Prince Fan would notice that Qi Xi Kingdom was actually only defending?

  Well, even if they did notice, she was sure that Qi Kan Tian had his own ways to deal with that prince and made sure that things end up well for him.

  …

  Fei Yang Kingdom Capital City

  "Your Majesty, there's news from the frontline!"

  The method of communication still mostly relied on bird. It was also the reason why it was very hard to transmit news from the very frontline to the Capital City. The High Pass was not that far but it was not that close either. Thus, it was only in the middle of the night when Emperor Yang Zhou finally received the letter.

  He couldn't sleep because of anxiousness, yet there was none of his feelings were expressed on his face.

  "What did it say?"

  "We manage to repel the invaders on the first day!"

  "Good!" Emperor Yang Zhou clenched his fist. When he heard the news of the invasion, he was worried that things would turn worse. Now that they were being held at High Pass, it meant that they still had their own ways to defend.

  Fei Yang Kingdom would not fall that easily.

  The officials around also cheered loudly when they heard the news. Neither one of them had left even though it was already very late at night. Everyone was busy discussing the strategy or method for them to repel the invaders.

  Even now, there was a large table in the middle of the hall with almost all officials around them.

  They were trying to help.

  No matter how little it was, they hoped that they could provide the method so that their kingdom could stand tall and not be annexed by the other five kingdoms.

  "Prime Minister Lan, have you found anything?"

  Prime Minister Lan, who used to be General Lan, was the other prime minister aside from Prime Minister Bei. He was also the person whom Emperor Yang Zhou trusted more. After all, Prime Minister Lan was the one who had protected him and even helped to become the bait back then to make sure that he could enter the palace safely.*
