Chapter 2336: Start of the Battle (4)
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of battle continued until late at night when Long Qian Xing ordered them to retreat.
He looked at the city with some pity.
It seemed this old city was actually quite sturdy. Then they should try another time tomorrow to break down the city gate and wall if possible.
“Your plan didn’t seem to be successful,” Yu Jin said as she returned. Her soldiers were also tired and the gate in her side was partially broken because of being smashed. But behind the gate was naturally the large stone and it would take some time for them to destroy the stones. Of course, another way to enter was through the top of the wall and then climbed down the stairs. The soldiers who managed to reach the gate could open it from inside and dragged the stone out along with other soldiers.
In this way, they would be able to enter the city.
But Fan Yi Kingdom had long anticipated this kind of standard move and the defense on theta was quite annoying.
“Not yet,” Long Qian Xing replied and looked at Yu Jin who looked quite a mess. “Did you fight a general?”
“There’s only one general there, General Jin. The one I fought is the annoying Adjutant Pei,” Yu Jin replied.
Adjutant Pei, former General Huang’s adjutant, has quite high martial arts and also good strategic capabilities. He was able to help General Huang on the battlefield over the years and then led the soldiers back to Fan Yi Kingdom’s Capital City.
As opponents, he was hard to deal with.
After resting enough, Adjutant Pei was back to his peak condition.
In this way, the battle between Yu Jin and Adjutant Pei didn’t go as smoothly as Yu Jin wanted to.
Long Qian Xing nodded.
He fought against General Jin for a while and then left the stage to his soldiers. The situation on the city wall was a bit different from what he think, but it was still pretty good overall.
Besides…
Long Qian Xing looked at the wall thoughtfully. There were some cracks on the surface of the wall, which was not very noticeable in a first glance but when he was close, Long Qian Xing could still see it.
“If there’s a catapult here, it’ll be much better,” Long Qian Xing murmured.
“Then you can try bringing that across those mountains,” Yu Jin heard Long Qian Xing’s words and retorted.
The terrain from Fei Yang Kingdom to here contained various parts. It was not that easy for them to carry those catapults.
It was not impossible.
But it would take a long time.
Moreover, they were already at the final stage of the battle, do they want to go back just to bring that thing?
“We can make it here if you have the right tools,” Long Qian Xing said speechlessly. He felt that Yu Jin’s mind needed to be tempered more.
“You can?” Yu Jin was stunned.
She thought that the making for those catapult was difficult and they wouldn’t be able to make it without using a lot of effort. But now, Long Qian Xing told her that they could actually make it?
Long Qian Xing shrugged. “I have the blueprint, but we don’t have the right tool here.”
It was more like, he could draw it. After all, the design was relatively easy to draw for Long Qian Xing. But whether it was possible to make or not based on their current condition, it was another question.
“How do you have it? Isn’t it a secret?” Yu Jin was shocked now.
Even Wei Mu Bai turned his head to look at Long Qian Xing. When his father asked for some catapult back then, what he received was only the final result and not the design.
After all, for such a big weapon that could change the tide in the war, there were not many people who would be willing to show the making to others. What if their business was stolen? “It’s not that hard to make.” Long Qian Xing shook his head and didn’t explain anymore. Noticing Nan Hua coming from the distance, Long Qian Xing decisively left these two people. Yu Jin, who was about to ask more, saw Long Qian Xing’s move and rolled her eyes. She turned to look at Wei Mu Bai. “Is it really possible to draw something like that from scratch?”
Wei Mu Bai felt the pressure being stared by Yu JIn. He quickly replied, “It might be possible for General Xing but not for us.”
Even he had to say that he was not capable to make that kind of thing.
His education ever since he was young couldn’t be said to be bad, but Wei Mu Bai had no confidence to make that kind of weapon.
“As I thought,” Yu Jin murmured in a low voice, “It’s Long Qian Xing who’s not human.”
Wei Mu Bai: “…”
He silently took a step back from Yu Jin.
If Long Qian Xing were to hear Yu Jin’s words, the two of them might end up fighting against each other again.
The quarrel between Yu Jin and Long Qian Xing were not exactly a secret on the frontline. Wei Mu Bai had seen them very often and after some gossips, he found out that Long Qian Xing’s wife is Yu Jin’s sworn sister.
No wonder that the relationship between Yu Jin and Long Qian Xing were like water and fire.
The two of them could never stay in one place.
Yu Jin saw Nan Hua coming and pursed her lips.
The fact that Nan Hua and Yu Jin were sworn sister couldn’t be hidden. With Yu Jin coming to play with Nan Hua from time to time, other people would wonder how they have such a good
relationship.
Of course, the reason Yu Jin gave was that she paid a visit to Nan Hua in Yi Shang Temple and Nan Hua helped her, so they become sworn sister.
Some people were skeptical.
But many other accepted this answer.
Otherwise, did they meet on the battlefield?
