"What?" Feng Ao Si was stunned.
"Our soldiers are getting attacked at the back."
The back?
If he was not wrong, the soldiers on the back were all the soldiers who were wounded, right? If they were to be attacked fiercely by Zhang Xu Kingdom, how were they supposed to retaliate?
With this thought, Feng Ao Si swiftly turned his horse around.
He had to go back!
"Go back and kill everyone from Zhang Xu Kingdom!" Feng Ao Si roared in anger.
The soldiers who followed him were stunned for a moment before they followed him in a hurry. They thought of their comrades on the back and also felt panic. They didn't want to lose their brothers.
…
<Not long distance away, Zhang Xu Kingdom's side, Prince Zhang Hou Jia's side>
The battle on the battlefield was very bloody. There were many corpses falling on the ground and ended up left unattended because everyone was busy with their own battle. At the end of the day, many of them were battered beyond recognition.
Prince Zhang Hou Jia might have heard of the cruelty of the battlefield for a long time, but this was the first time he saw it directly with his eyes. Looking at the bloodied sight of these soldiers, his entire person felt unwell.
But he held back.
As he was disguising as a solider, it was inconvenient for him to do anything that would attract other people's attention. Thus, he could only try his best to lower his sense of presence while trying to figure out a way out.
And his subordinate found it.
The encirclement from Fei Yang Kingdom was not perfect. The side that was Northwest still had a gap with the soldiers were fighting fiercely around there.
And beside that area, the soldiers who guarded the side was filled with wounded soldiers.
Thus, he had to strike this idea.
"Open the path and then we'll go," Prince Zhang Hou Jia gritted his teeth and gave his order.
This order was also the only chance for him to escape.
If he were to be captured along with the other soldiers, the chance for him to survive was close to none. Even if he rarely came out of the palace due to his status as a prince, there were still many people who knew his face.
If he were to be captured and then recognized, his end would definitely be death.
He didn't want to die.
Not here.
Not as a lowly person like this.
Thus, he had to get out.
"Yes!"
Clang! Clang! Clang!
More and more soldiers poured into the encirclement and Prince Zhang Hou Jia was hidden among them. Looking at the soldiers around him, he tried his best to make himself acted as an ordinary soldier.
But looking at the blood and flesh that was scattered on the ground, it was really hard for him to keep a straight face.
He wanted to puke so badly.
"We're almost there!" his trusted attendant noticed the gap and quickly told his master.
Prince Zhang Hou Jia nodded weakly.
…
<At the area not long distance away, Fei Yang Kingdom's side, Feng Ao Kuai's location>
"Where's First Young Commander Feng?" Feng Ao Kuai asked, his tone was cold. Looking at the soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom who already broke their formation and rushed into the woods, his eyes turned colder.
"First Young Commander Feng is still fighting deeper into Zhang Xu Kingdom's army."
"Stupid." Feng Ao Kuai cursed under his breath and raised his hand. "Archers, get ready and attack!"
"Yes!"
Swish! Swish! Jleb! Jleb!
Countless soldiers who escaped were pierced by the arrows but many of them still managed to escape.
Feng Ao Kuai watched with cold expression, knowing that this mistake by his older brother definitely couldn't be covered at all.
There were too many people who escaped.
"First Young Commander Feng is here!"
"Tell him to kill these soldiers who approached as fast as possible!"
"Yes!"
Hearing the cold tone from Feng Ao Kuai, the soldiers shuddered. This was the first time they heard Feng Ao Kuai being so angry like this and no one dared to go against him at all.
They quickly rushed towards Feng Ao Si, giving him the order from Feng Ao Kuai.
Even though Feng Ao Si was still ranked higher right now, but the soldiers seemed to have forgotten all about it when they were seeing Feng Ao Kuai. The prestige and order from Feng Ao Kuai was seen to be higher by these soldiers.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Feng Ao Kuai looked at the escaped soldiers and finally turned his head back to Zhang Xu Kingdom's side.
There was no use moping around and thinking about this problem.
The mistake had been done.
What was important was to make sure that the rest of the soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom didn't manage to escape.
He simply had to do his best for this.
"Maintain the formation. Archers will help the infantry to guard. Raise your shield…."
With Feng Ao Kuai maintaining the order at the back, the originally scattered soldiers began to regroup once more.
And at the side, Feng Ao Si felt as if he was hit by the big boulder.
Looking at the condition of his soldiers, he felt immense heartache.
But he also knew that it was his mistake that had caused his soldiers to die.
"Young Master…" Dai was about to tell Feng Ao Si about the next arrangement when he heard Feng Ao Si's words.
"We're staying behind."
"The order is for defense, Young Master." Dai reminded quietly.
Feng Ao Si fell silent. He nodded and waved his hand, signaling that he knew about it. But he still felt irritated when he thought that the enemy was actually taking advantage of his side.
