Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

“Can’t you wake me up normally?” Feng Ao Si felt a bit aggrieved. Come on, who would want to have water splashed on their face the first thing in the morning?

“I can’t.” Dai looked at Feng Ao Si coldly.

It was then Feng Ao Si recalled that the last time Dai woke him up normally, he almost killed the other party because he thought that he was being attacked. As soldiers, they were used to keep vigilance all the time, so it was harder for others to approach them easily.

Feng Ao Si smiled weakly.

Well, he couldn’t defend himself now…

<General Long’s Tent>

General Long had woken up a long time ago. He glanced at General Cao, who had come to visit him early in the morning.

“I’ll take offense. You take defense.”

“I understand.” General Cao was calm. In this battle, the one who lead will be General Long, so he had to listen to General Long’s arrangement. Truthfully, the simulated battle to take over Wei Da Kingdom’s Capital City had been done countless times.

It was just that, everything has only been simulation.

They didn’t know the exact situation until they came here.

“You better do it well.”

General Cao’s eyes narrowed. He cupped his fist and then left.

General Long didn’t pay any attention to General Cao anymore as he walked out of the tent. Looking at the soldiers who were preparing their advance, he waved his hand.

“Prepare for battle!”

Drap! Drap! Drap! Drap!

The soldiers went to their position with their commanders leading at the forefront. It was all had been prepared from the very beginning that their positions were basically fixed. They were all ready.

“This is the battle that will go down in history! How do you want your descendants to describe you in this battle? A coward who run away at the very last moment or a warrior who charged forward in order to rewrite the history?” General Long asked loudly, his eyes were sweeping the line of soldiers behind him.

“Prove yourself in this battle! No one will be able to defeat Fei Yang Kingdom!”

“Uooooooooooooo!”

Gong!

The sound of the war drum resounded.

The respective generals from each army were standing at the forefront of their soldiers, looking at the enemies in front of them. Neither one of them showed any nervousness and there were only confidence and determination.

No matter what, they had to win the war.

“ONWARD!” General Long shouted from the front.

The soldiers all responded wildly, shouting in response.

Looking at how the soldiers were all being excited, Feng Ao Si pursed his lips. This was not the first time he saw a general standing at the forefront and led the soldiers. However, he still could sense the excitement from the soldiers.

Even he felt his blood was boiling from that simple speech of General Long.

Was this the power of a general?

Anyway…

“UOooooooooooooo!” Feng Ao Si shouted wildly and led the soldiers to charge forward. He was part of the soldiers who will charge first, so he ran faster.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Standing on top of the wall, River General Kui watched General Long motivated the soldiers and his expression was as cold as ice. This was not the first time he faced General Long and this time, he will never run away.

Because once he ran away, Wei Da Kingdom will be lost.

“Continue to shoot the arrows!”

“Yes, River General Kui!”

The soldiers were prepared and continued to shoot arrows. The soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom raised their shield, protecting them from the barrage of arrows shot towards them.

Tak! Tak! Tak!

Countless stairs were used while a part of the soldiers were busy banging on the gate. General Long was using two methods, climbing and also breaking through the gate.

The soldiers were running wildly.

Even Feng Ao Si joined the climbing soldiers. He wanted to go up there and went on a rampage.

This time, Dai let Feng Ao Si be.

He wouldn’t be able to stop this bull head at all.

At the back, Nan Luo watched and sucked his breath. He was in the defense line for today, which was why he didn’t come forward. “They have already blocked the gate even before we come. Is it possible to catch them unprepared?”

“That’s unlikely to happen because the Capital City is located in the center of a kingdom. If you wish to catch them unprepared, you have to make sure not a single one of them heard the news at the frontline and other cities before it.” Nan Hua was sitting on top of a horse right beside Nan Luo.

Nan Luo revealed a thoughtful expression and sighed. He thought that it would be possible for him to launch a sneak attack, but he realized that he was too naïve. Such thing would not happen so easily like when he encountered other commanders on the battlefield.

That was a bit disheartening.

“That means, this will be a long battle?”

“Yes.”

Nan Hua looked at the front and narrowed her eyes slightly. She could see that when the soldiers were about to reach the top, the soldiers from Wei Da Kingdom poured boiling hot water.

This will prevent the soldiers from going up on the wall.

Bang! Thunk!𝒐𝓥𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t

The soldiers were falling down, but more soldiers were rushing up. Those who were injured were either rushing up again to use their lives in exchange to win the battle or tried to get back.

Though, moving against the other soldiers were the same as suicide.

These were not soldiers who were trained to open up path to bring the wounded back as they were still rushing forward.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

“Cruel.” Nan Luo sighed.

“Haven’t you participate in city siege before?” Nan Hua asked.

“I have, but they didn’t prepare that boiling water.” Nan Luo smiled bitterly.

“It needs adequate preparation. And the deadlier method is to use oil rather than water.”

Nan Luo: “…”

He hoped that he will never encounter any of them.
