Chapter 2005 Time Skip
Time passed quietly.
Season changed and the year changed. War between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom continued fiercely. The battle at the south, which Heavenly General Sang thought would have been finished before Fei Yang Kingdom send more reinforcement turned out to last much longer than expected. It wouldn't be easy for Shi Long Kingdom to turn the table once more. When Spring arrived and Great General Long finally came, the battle was once again turned to Fei Yang Kingdom's side. One by one, the cities under Shi Long Kingdom fell to Fei Yang Kingdom's hand under Great General Long's lead. Shangguan Xiao was helping from the back and could be said to have the most comfortable time in his entire career. Watching and hearing the news of Great General Long's victory again and again was very pleasant. If not because he was reprimanded when he first met with Great General Long, Shangguan Xiao really wanted to come and talk more with Great General Long. As for why he was reprimanded…
It was naturally related to his older brother's reckless action when the war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom started. Shangguan Xian was indeed a capable person, but as a leader, he neglected his own subordinate's state, which resulted in him being used by Heavenly General Sang. Heavenly General Sang's method was indeed dirty.
But there was no law that restrict him from using such a method in order to win the war.
As one had said, all is fair in war and love. In this war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom, the two sides were determined to use whatever means they have if it could seize the so called victory. No matter what, they had to be prepped for the worst. And Shangguan Xian just bear the brunt since he was the leader of Fei Yang Kingdom's side in the war against Shi Long Kingdom's side. Since he was also the leader of the main army, naturally the blame also fell on his shoulder. Shangguan Xian retired. And the one at the forefront was now Shangguan Xiao.
Naturally, when Great General Long arrived, Shangguan Xiao was forced to listen to a long lecture about what he should and shouldn't do. Shangguan Xiao really wanted to pull his brother back to listen to Great General Long's lecture.
Unfortunately, Shangguan Xian had already departed a long time ago.
It would not be possible to bring him back to the frontline. Thankfully, the situation on the frontline was not very good and Great General Long had to depart once again to wage the war against Shi Long Kingdom. If he didn't start this war and battles, it was estimated that the forces from Shi Long Kingdom would concentrate on Long Qian Xing at the south. In that situation, it was estimated that Long Qian Xing might not be able to survive in the end. Great General Long didn't want to lose his son, so he immediately waged the war. With his participating, Heavenly General Sang had no other choice but to call back the soldiers who were at the south to fight against Great General Long, who kept on invading Shi Long Kingdom. With this, the war that was previously siding with Shi Long Kingdom had tilted to Fei Yang Kingdom's side. As more and more cities fell down, Shi Long Kingdom's situation became even more perilous. Long Qian Xing was still leading the soldiers to defend the south areas.
Even if Heavenly General Sang arranged for some soldiers to be called back, there were still many soldiers from Shi Long Kingdom left. It seemed that the death of many generals and even Heavenly General in Long Qian Xing's hand had made Shi Long Kingdom determined not to let him go at all cost.
Spring passed and summer came. The hot temperature cooled down and autumn was about to arrive. But the war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom hadn't ended yet. The two sides were still fighting a fierce battle as neither side was willing to back down. "General Xing, there are more soldiers who are unable to continue participating in the war," Yu Jin reminded as she came to Long Qian Xing's side. For the past half a year and a bit more, Yu Jin has been fighting on one side while Long Qian Xing handled the other side. The two of them were the leaders as they continued to fight against Shi Long Kingdom's side. Now, they heard that Great General Long was approaching the Capital City of Shi Long Kingdom, but Heavenly General Sang still didn't call back the soldiers from their sides. No matter which eyes were looking at this situation, they felt that something was wrong. But no one knew what Heavenly General Sang was thinking.
"More casualties, I know," Long Qian Xing answered calmly.
Since the battle was long, Long Qian Xing sent the soldiers who could no longer fought through the other side of the area back to Fei Yang Kingdom. There was no point for them to continue stay here and the rations were also diminishing. The three families were all still working hard, but it was clear that the war had taken its toll.
If this continued, what awaited them would be their demise.
It was still Summer and the hot temperature made the battle even more tiring. But so far, they managed to hold on while trying to push down the casualties number. It was just that no matter what, wars will always bring casualties.
It was something inevitable. "Are you waiting for something?" Yu Jin asked with a frown.
Ever since Long Qian Xing came back on his own, Yu Jin has been asking about where Nan Hua was, but Long Qian Xing only told her that Nan Hua has something else that she has to do. As for what it was, Long Qian Xing didn't tell her. And Yu Jin felt that Long Qian Xing has been acting rather strange.
