Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

It was only after they had finished eating that Nan Luo remembered that he didn't pay any attention to Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing. But looking at the side, he saw that Long Qian Xing had already left while Nan Hua was standing behind him calmly.

He blinked his eyes.

Does it mean that he didn't have to worry?

…

The days passed by quietly.

The journey to the north border was rather smooth and the other cities they encountered gave up without much resistance. They willingly give in to Fei Yang Kingdom and didn't seem to have that much affection to Wei Da Kingdom.

"These cities used to be part of Qi Xi Kingdom," Long Qian Xing explained when he saw Feng Ao Si's confused face.

"Huh? But they're now part of Wei Da… eh wrong, I mean part of Fei Yang Kingdom?" Feng Ao Si asked.

Long Qian Xing nodded. Many decades ago, there was a big war that caused Qi Xi Kingdom's size to shrunk. It would be hard for Qi Xi Kingdom to be categorized as a big kingdom now, but their influence was still there, so they were still called as a big kingdom alongside the others.

Other kingdoms were taking their territory or giving some compensation. After all neither Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom bordered Qi Xi Kingdom. Wei Da Kingdom, Fan Yi Kingdom, and Shi Long Kingdom had taken a good chunk of Qi Xi Kingdom's territory.

These cities are part of Qi Xi Kingdom in the past.

They might have known the fate of resisting, so no one thought about that and just simply gave up.

If they could live well by being part of Fei Yang Kingdom, who would think about anything else? They didn't have the energy and mind to care about the other higher ranks people's problem.

"The cities are moving territories from time to time." Sheng Shan Lang also knew about this matter after experiencing it a several times during his journey with his soldiers. However, he was not exactly clear about the history like the others.

"We're reaching the north border."

"Oh."

When it was said, the three commanders tacitly stopped talking. They turned to look at the front and saw the big city in front of them with tall walls and also soldiers preparing for battle.

Sheng Shan Lang sneered. "So that General Kai is ready to fight, huh? I guess his name and reputation for staying here to guard against Fan Yi Kingdom is not just rumor."

Feng Ao Si blinked his eyes. "Is it possible to be a rumor?"

"If there are someone else behind the scene, they can also help General Kai stabilized his position." Nan Luo shrugged. "We'll know later. What's the battle plan, Young Commander Long?"

They all turned to look at Long Qian Xing.

"Sheng Shan Lang stay in the forest, scatter your soldiers while carrying the flag. Feng Ao Si and Nan Luo will flank at the left and right side. I'll deal with the middle. Left half of your soldiers for reserve…"

After some instruction, the other commanders had a clear picture about what Long Qian Xing was planning. In short, he was trying to trick General Kai about their number.

After all, General Kai only knew that there will be people that Fei Yang Kingdom sent to the border.

But how many people?

The soldiers under General Kai himself was a lot because he had been at the border for a long time and had to fight against both Fan Yi Kingdom and Qi Xi Kingdom. It was precisely because of this that there had to be enough soldiers to defend Wei Da Kingdom.

Now, this somewhat large number of soldiers had to face a bit more than 10,000 soldiers led by Long Qian Xing.

It wouldn't be easy for them to win with such difference.

"Will such a method be possible?" Feng Ao Si asked as he moved to the west side. He will be taking the west while Nan Luo taking the east. The number on Nan Luo's side was actually lower than Sheng Shan Lang, but Long Qian Xing somewhat trusted Nan Luo more because he had seen Nan Luo's capability.

And the fact that Nan Hua was in Nan Luo's army also meant that the difference in 1000 number could be covered.

Dai glanced at his young master. "Young Master, this number illusion can trick the enemies and make their morale down."

"How useful is it?" Feng Ao Si was confused.

Because of his low rank, it was mostly himself who was at disadvantage in number. Most of the time, the number wouldn't be too large, giving him the impression that there was nothing special about this difference in number.

In the rare cases, he would be at utter disadvantage and used his most powerful weapon to get out: muscle power!

If all other commanders were like him, it was estimated that Fei Yang Kingdom could never wash out the reputation as barbarian ever again.

Though, the real reason why Fei Yang Kingdom was called as barbarian was actually because they were the second to adapt the cavalry method back then and also some policy internally.

But as time passed, it just somehow referred more to the fact that their commanders were muscle headed….

…

Sora's Corner: Cavalry

Cavalry exist for a long time, but it was actually adapted from the nomaden's warring method during the Spring and Autumn Period. When it was first introduced, it was looked down as a 'barbarian' method because it originated from the people who was said to have no 'culture.'

However, it was soon widespread and commonly used in the later stage. After all, the advantage of cavalry, especially in the open area, is very obvious. Many war tactics also began to revolve in using the benefit of having a cavalry in their team. There were also some inventions that was found that was helpful for war with these cavalries.
