Novel Full Chapter 2276: Reasons
Chapter 2276: Reasons
Everyone was quite clear about it.
This was one of the reasons why there were not many brutal wars with Fan Yi Kingdom over the past decades. And even if there was not much war with the other kingdoms, the war at the north still wore Fan Yi Kingdom down.
Without capable generals protecting the border all year long, it would have been impossible for Fan Yi Kingdom to stand tall.
And once Fan Yi Kingdom fell to the northern tribes, the other kingdoms would have to step forward to take this problem upon themselves and pushed them away from their lands. It was a tacit agreement that the other kingdoms had.
After all, who would want to give up their lands to these people?
None of them wanted it.
Wei Da Lang proceeded to talk about a few more things with Long Qian Xing before sending him away. He himself still had a few more things to settle.
One of them was to talk with his son, Wei Mu Bai.
Wei Mu Bai has been doing very well in this war after Wei Da Lang promoted him to become a general. However, Wei Mu Bai’s situation hadn’t been very good in the past month after he lost his sister.
After all, Wei Mu Ya died in front of Wei Mu Bai and at times, Wei Mu Bai even felt that it was his fault.
So in the past few battles, Wei Da Lang had seen Wei Mu Bai was a bit more ruthless towards his opponents. It would have been alright if Wei Mu Bai was still paying attention to his safety, but his action also showed some recklessness.
For this matter, Wei Da Lang decided to talk with his son first.
“Father,” Wei Mu Bai greeted when he saw his father coming.
“How did General Huang escaped?” Wei Da Lang asked another question first. The one in charge for General Huang was Wei Mu Bai and Yu Jin. Well, Yu Jin was nearby and the main attacker was Wei Mu Bai.
Wei Mu Bai frowned and then replied, “It’s my carelessness, Father.”
The formation was not perfect yet when General Huang broke through, allowing him to escape. For this matter, Wei Mu Bai knew that it was his fault because he didn’t order his soldiers to move fast enough.
But in the end, he also somewhat underestimated General Huang.
None of them thought that General Huang would be able to react so quickly and then escaped before they were prepared.
Wei Da Lang nodded. “When the war is over, you’ll rest.”
Hearing this, Wei Mu Bai raised his head in surprise. He almost had no rest at all in the past few years as he followed his father on the frontline. Part of it was his own ambition and the other part of it was because he wanted to follow his father and made his name on the battlefield.
Now… his father told him that he should rest?
Wei Mu Bai didn’t understand.
Wei Da Lang looked at his son and slowly said, “You’re already in your mid twenties. It’s time for you to settle down.”
He was no longer that young and his children have all grown up. The war with Fan Yi Kingdom could be said to be the last big war that Fei Yang Kingdom could have in the next few years.
So he wanted to use this chance to let Wei Mu Bai rest.
He had been fighting on the frontline again and again, breaking through his limit and kept pushing himself hard.
“I…” Wei Mu Bai didn’t really want to settle down. He didn’t have anyone he liked, but he also knew that his marriage would be arranged by the elders. It was the custom at this time and Wei Mu Bai could only follow through with the arrangement.
As for leaving the battlefield…
Wei Da Lang glanced at his son and then said, “Many people will die on the battlefield. It’s their decision to step forward to the frontline and they know the risk.”
They knew the risk, but they still took the weapon to fight.
For what?
For various reasons. Be it their family, their belief, their ambition, or many other things. No matter what reasons it was, Wei Da Lang didn’t ask them and gave them a chance. Whether they could survive until the very end depended on their own abilities and luck because no one knew what would happen on the frontline.
“Life on the battlefield is cruel, but there are also things worth expecting behind.”
Things worth expecting?
Wei Mu Bai didn’t answer his father, but he felt that his father was right. He spent most of his time on the frontline that he had no time to care about other things in his life.
Even towards his sister, whom he worked together for the past few years, their relationship were more like superior and subordinate rather than family members. Because whenever they talked with each other, they would only discuss about war and so on.
They didn’t talk about anything else.
It was more like, they didn’t really have anything else to talk about either.
Wei Da Lang didn’t wait for Wei Mu Bai’s answer and left once again. He wanted to finish his work as fast as possible so that he would be able to pay a visit to his Master.
Wei Mu Bai stood there silently before he left.
…
<Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua’s side>
After the conversation with Wei Da Lang, the two of them made their way back. There were some ruined houses in the city, but most of the houses were still intact.
In addition, the war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Fan Yi Kingdom had caused some citizen
to move away, abandoning their houses.
Because they knew very well that the war would not end so soon.
Many of them simply wanted to avoid the war and thus, refused to stay here anymore and would rather go to other places.
