Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

It didn’t take long for Nan Hua to explain to Nan Luo what he was supposed to do. Listening to Nan Hua’s explanation, Nan Luo looked at his twin sister and began to feel that she was even scarier than Feng Ao Kuai when arranging tactics.

When working with Feng Ao Kuai, he had felt pity for the enemies because they kept on falling for Feng Ao Kuai’s insidious traps. Now, hearing Nan Hua’s merciless ambush and tactics, he began to feel that her enemies were even more miserable.

“Is it fine for us to use this kind of tactics?”

“It’s fine.” Nan Hua thought for a moment before adding, “General Xing will be using similar tactics too.”

“Huh?” Nan Luo was stunned.

Long Qian Xing was not exactly at disadvantage in terms of number, right?

…

<Not far from them, Long Qian Xing’s Side>

Long Qian Xing was not exactly staying with Nan Luo all the time. After telling the other party that they would be heading to the forest, he had already designated the route where he would be going.

They would be hunting for the headquarters’ location.

At least, that was his plan.

“Ask them to blend with the forest.” Long Qian Xing’s eyes narrowed when he looked at the soldiers behind him. “Do they not know how to walk silently? Should I increase your training?”

The soldiers tensed up when they heard that they would be given more training and focused more. They had been tortured for a long period of time with Long Qian Xing’s harsh training.

No one wanted more training.

Seeing that the soldiers were more serious, Long Qian Xing nodded and walked deeper. When he talked with Nan Hua that night, the two of them had agreed to use guerrilla tactic. It was closer to sneaky battle.

But for Long Qian Xing, who cares about that?

Zhang Xu Kingdom was notorious for their schemes and immoral use of poisons; why couldn’t they use sneaky tactics instead?

Anyway, Long Qian Xing’s soldiers were also trained to fight in the forest more than Nan Luo’s soldiers. This will allow them to adapt to the environment faster and possibly help him to win the battle through this kind of tactic.

As they walked deeper into the forest, Long Qian Xing’s sharp sense caught on that there were people at the front.

“Scout.”

Swish!

Several soldiers dashed forward, maintaining their silence but nimbly crossed the forest without making any noise whatsoever. They were the special group of scout that Long Qian Xing had trained for a long time.

If there was any need to scout, they would be sent first.

They had to be careful from being found by others.

Swish!

“General Xing, there’s a group of soldiers at the front around 1000 men soldiers. They’re separate group with….”

Long Qian Xing listened to the scout reporting the condition of the army at the front and the corner of his lips curled up to form a smirk. “Head forward, eliminate them as fast as possible. We’re ambushing them!”

“Yes, General Xing!”

The soldiers moved sneakily towards the army at the front. When they were close enough, Long Qian Xing yelled the order and the soldiers charged forward.

“Uooooooooo!”

Clang! Slash! Clang! Slash! Clang! Slash!

The army from Zhang Xu Kingdom was caught by the ambush and failed to react in time. They couldn’t do anything as they were being killed. Only a few of them managed to react and raised their sword to defend.

But in the end, the overwhelming number of Long Qian Xing’s soldiers drowned them.

“General Xing, it’s clear!”

“We’ll move to the next one!”

“Yes!”

The soldiers moved faster under Long Qian Xing lead.

Everywhere they went, there will be corpses in this large forest that was being killed. And Long Qian Xing himself had already separated his other adjutants to move on their own and killed the army from Zhang Xu Kingdom using the same tactic.

If the enemy’s number was much higher, they ambushed and retreat within half an incense stick of time.

All they had to do was to inflict damages as much as possible.

If the enemy’s number was lower, they ambushed and strive to eliminate everyone within half an incense stick of time.

After that, they had to move again.

With this tactic, the patrolling soldiers under Zhang Xu Kingdom fell one by one.

Within half a day, more than 5 armies were injured and some of them were annihilated. It was to the point that General Jue felt like vomiting.

Close to 5,000 soldiers died on the very first time they clashed.

If this were to be reported, what would his image be?

General Jue was only recently promoted and handed over the soldiers under several other commanders to work under him. He spread them in the vast forest because it would be hard for them to spot Long Qian Xing’s army without luck.

But it was precisely because of his tactic to spread them that he kept on receiving news of their losses.

“Do you know the direction where they headed?” General Jue asked.

“We estimated that there are a total of 4 armies separating and ambushing our soldiers, General Jue.” The soldiers who came to report knelt down. “Their number should be in thousands.”

“Thousands of soldiers entering the forest and yet we didn’t even spot them and instead being ambushed.” General Jue’s gazes were cold. “Tell me, how did you usually train to the point that you failed to notice their presence?”

The soldier didn’t dare to reply.

He knew very well no matter what he said, he would be wrong and treated badly by General Jue.

This new general was ambitious.

He had to perform well in this war or he would be demoted back to his previous rank.

No, the question whether he could even keep his previous rank was also a question if he were to lose too much in this war.
