Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1817  End of the First Battle Against Heavenly General Tan

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The heated battle continued all over the battlefield. Each of the general was fighting against their respective opponents. It was as if they were all trying their best to make sure that they would be able to survive until the very end but didn’t have much capability to do so.

It was quite frustrating.

The battle entered delicate balance and soon the gong sounded.

Both sides retreated.

“You’re lucky.” General Can looked at Nan Hua coldly and then ordered his soldiers to retreat. He felt that the more he fought with Nan Hua, the more he felt that there was something wrong.

Nan Hua killed General Bian so easily.

But when fighting against him, she seemed to be holding back.

But why?

Nan Hua looked at General Can indifferently and tugged the rein of the horse lightly. She patted the neck of her horse. “You did a great job today.”

*neigh*

The horse waved her tail happily as if responding to Nan Hua’s praise.

*neigh*

The horse waved her tail happily as if responding to Nan Hua’s praise.

Nan Hua smiled faintly. Sometimes, she felt that these animals were easier to talk with compared to many other humans around her.

Of course, she would not say something like this so blatantly in front of other people. That would be similar to offending them.

*cough*

“Have you finished?” Nan Hua asked as she looked at the infantry soldier who came towards her.

The infantry soldier cupped his fist and raised his head. His youthful and familiar face was illuminated by the moonlight. He’s Nan Si, who has been following Nan Hua for a long time and also participated in this battle.

“Yes, Miss, I have done what you ordered me to,” Nan Si reported. “Good job.”

“Thank you, Miss.” Nan Si smiled. He then retreated and blended with the other soldiers who were with him.

Nan Hua looked at General Can’s back and silently thought to herself that when General Can knew what happened, he would definitely feel the heartache. But it was not her business at all.

Her goal in the battle has always been the same.

Cut off Shi Long Kingdom’s advantage.

Since they thought that they could win the battle with their number advantage, then she would make them feel the pain of losing this advantage in the battle they thought that they could win easily.

…

<Heavenly General Tan’s side>

“What did you say?” Heavenly General Tan looked at the soldier under him with frown. He thought that he misheard it.

The soldier trembled and then replied, “Heavenly General Tan, all the soldiers under General Bian had been eliminated.”

All the soldiers under General Bian had been eliminated.

It was a very shocking news that seemed to be like a thunder in the clear blue sky.

“What happened? Even if General Bian had passed away, the commanders under his lead wouldn’t let the soldiers die so easily.” General Can was confused. More than half of the soldiers under General Bian was focused on the forefront, fighting against Nan Hua’s soldiers.

They were the first line, but it should have been impossible for Nan Hua to eliminate all of them when she was fighting the combination of the two generals.

Not to mention, General Can quickly reinforce with his own cavalry.

The soldier trembled. “It’s true…”

“You’re telling me that all 30,000 soldiers died in just one battle?” General Can wanted to smack General Bian from the grave and asked the other party how did he train his soldiers.

How in the world that 30,000 soldiers died in just one day? Even if the opponent was the famous General Jun, there was no way that so many soldiers would be eliminated so quickly in that chaotic battle.

They had the number advantage.

General Jun shouldn’t have been able to deal with them so easily.

Heavenly General Tan listened to report with a black face. But even if he was annoyed and angry, he still used his brain to analyze the situation. When Nan Hua bypassed the first line, they no longer paid attention to that line. After all, they believed that the commanders there would be able to deal with the remaining soldiers who were mixed among them.

Nan Hua’s breakthrough in the middle.

Normal common sense told them that she was the one in disadvantage because General Bian’s soldiers could use pincer attacks to press Nan Hua’s soldiers from both sides and eliminated any advantage she had.

But what did they hear?

All soldiers were eliminated.

“That’s not possible. What happened?” Even General Qiang, who was usually very energetic looked like he was shocked and unwilling to believe it.

The soldier looked troubled and then replied. “General Jun circled all the soldiers and eliminated them one by one.”

Circled the soldiers?

General Ruan frowned. “But if they want to circle the soldiers, it meant that they either have more soldiers or… more powerful even with the fewer number?”

Heavenly General Tan finally recalled that not all soldiers followed Nan Hua. Only half of them broke through in the middle and the rest were using the line formation to keep on pressing their enemies back.

They killed the enemy effectively by using the shield and also their sword.

Advancing slowly from the back while everyone’s attention was on the cool Nan Hua, who break through with fancy moves and destroyed many carriages.

Afterwards, she ordered the infantry to stay behind to deal with the carriage.

The sound of their destruction did attract some people to see.

But they didn’t pay attention to the brutal massacre on the soldiers at the side until it was too late. Too many soldiers had died while Nan Hua was fighting with General Can, attracting people’s attention on her.

She was attracting all attention.

But in truth, she was nothing more than the bait used by herself to eliminate their soldiers.

Bang!

Heavenly General Tan slammed the table in front of him. His eyes were red in anger as he realized that in this large battlefield, they were being played like a clown.
