Chapter 295 - General Soujin
Soujin came at the right time and with the reinforcement he brought, he made the way towards the enemy territory. He took his time to visit the two people while his men started to attack the soldiers from Ming Kingdom and pushed them back with sheer power.
"You annoying Brat! Finally, you return," Nanglong Souka chided.
Soujin nodded his head. "I'll go down there. If anything dangerous occurs, just inform me."
After saying his order, Soujin immediately climbed down again. Nanglong Souka was stunned. How in the world they were going to inform the other party when he was at the frontline?
Soujin joined the soldiers again and took the lead once more. Leading the soldiers from the frontline, it didn't take him a long time before the tide was turned to their favor once again.
Ming Hui and Nanglong Souka watch the battle from the city wall. The two of them could clearly see the differences. Just by going down there, Nanglong Soujin has made the soldiers' morale rise to an unprecedented level and pushed the enemy back. It made their act like a joke compared with Soujin.
"He should be the one to lead the soldiers all the time if this is the case," Ming Hui grumbled. Without Soujin, it seemed the power of the soldiers was halved, but still good enough.
"He can't stay in two places at the same time," Nanglong Souka retorted. "But, his subordinate should be the one to handle the situation and not you."
The other subordinates were brought by Soujin to Kai Kingdom. In order to finish the battle as soon as possible, he needed the manpower as much as he can bring. Because of that, he needed other people to take care of the soldiers in the border against Ming Kingdom.
Ming Hui still remembered the reasoning this guy gave him, but he didn't like it in the slightest bit. He felt that this guy was just using him to fight.
"I want to go down. You can stay here, Prime Minister Nanglong Souka."
Ming Hui walked down the stairs to go outside. He was itching to have some movement rather than sitting here and watched the situation unfolds. Nanglong Souka didn't hinder him as he returned to his seat and waited as a laidback old man.
When he stepped to the battlefield, he quickly saw his best friend was fighting on the side along with his subordinate. It was only a small group to take care of the rest, but it seemed that Yan was enjoying himself.
"Are you really happy because you're not getting beaten up again?" Ming Hui approached the other party.
Yan looked towards Ming Hui with a smile. "You know it the best. Do you want to join the fray? Be careful as your martial arts are not that high."
Compared to Yan and Soujin, Ming Hui martial arts cannot be called high. He was barely capable to fight as an ordinary soldier in a battle. That was, if he fought the normal way.
Ming Hui sneered. "Do you think I'm the same with you?"
Taking his needles out from his sleeves, Yan shudders at the sight. He could still remember the painful experience he had when the other party used the needle to beat him out until he couldn't get out from the bed for weeks. Just because he wanted to try to do that, the retribution was far higher.
Ming Hui noticed the reaction Yan had upon seeing the needles, and he smirked. "You should never make a doctor angry."
"I don't want to fight with you anymore."
If he were to fight with Ming Hui, it was clear that the pain would not reduce at all. It would stay with him until a long time because as a doctor, that brother of his knew very well how to make him felt pain or not.
"Fighting with you is not fun too. You lose to quick," Ming Hui answered.
"Just fight with Soujin."
"No thanks. It will be me to get beaten up if it's him," Ming Hui has tried to fight using the needles against Soujin, but it ended up with him almost get beaten up. If not for it only a spar, Soujin would surely send him straight to the hospital.
Thinking about it, now he wanted to know what would happen if he were to fight with Jun Hua. The little lass's ability was not ordinary, and it might be possible that he would be the one to get hurt too. These two were really amazing.
With the needles on his left hand and a sword at the right hand, Ming Hui joined the fight. Yan could only pray silently for those who experience the brutality of Ming Hui needles. He would not want to experience it for the second time even if he got a lot of money for it.
The fight didn't last even one day as Soujin managed to snatch the city back by noon. Because of that, the three of them gathered together in the city at night.
"This city is hard to defend?" Ming Hui looked towards Soujin with unbelief expression.
Soujin nodded. "I design this city to be hard to defend. Your loss is already within my calculation, and I have the confidence that I could take the city back all the same."
Ming Hui was speechless. Before this, he was thinking how to give the excuse for losing the city to Soujin. Never had he thought that the other party already planned the things to be like that.
"But, you snatch the city back too fast," Yan argued.
"It was because Strategist Wu knew that the city is like this. He gives up to avoid gets more causalities," Soujin said calmly. "He's more cunning than what I thought."
Ming Hui and Yan looked at each other.
"It seemed that Soujin finally has someone that could contend with him. Most of the general is not as smart as him," Yan commented.
"They are mostly only powerful," Ming Hui grinned. "The battle is going to be interesting."
When they were talking, a soldier came to them. "Doctor Hui, Commander Lanying is hurt during the battle."
