Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 556 Second Day – Middle Area (1)

　　Qiu Xian listened to Nan Hua’s words and felt a bit amazed. Just as they were confused how to merge the two army so quickly, the suggestion Nan Hua gave was very complete and thorough.

”That’s a great idea.” Nan Luo nodded then turned to Xiao Yan. “What do you think, Xiao Yan?”

”Young Master, using my head is not my forte.” Xiao Yan looked at Nan Luo helplessly. Compared to Nan Luo, Xiao Yan’s intelligence was not that much better. At least, in terms of strategy. “However, I can say that yo…. Nan’s suggestion is really good.”

Nan Luo nodded then turned to Qiu Xian.

”Since it’s emergency, this tactic will do for now.” Qiu Xian nodded. “It’s a pleasure working with you, Young Commander Nan.”

”Likewise, Commander Qiu.”

They got up and walked away. Qiu Xian glanced at Nan Hua for a moment but refrained from asking. It was not like he didn’t know anything about Nan Luo’s group. After all, as the grandson of Great General Nan and also his successor, it was only natural for his information to circulate.

He had heard that Nan Luo had two adjutants and the two of them were actually his manservants. Their capabilities were unknown, but it should be said that they were not ordinary people who were similar to others.

”Let’s go!”

The group marched to their position. The other soldiers were also ready and Nan Luo felt a bit nervous. It would be his first time to lead much more soldiers. Just as he was about to prepare himself, he saw Nan Hua brought a horse to him.

”Horse…?”

”You’re already a 300 men commander, why can’t you use a horse when you have cavalry in your army?” Nan Hua explained. She didn’t like speaking, but when it come to her brother, she would not mind giving a few more words to explain to him.

”Ah, that’s true.”

Nan Luo looked at the horse then effortlessly climb up. He had already practiced riding horse until his legs were sore back then. Both he and Nan Hua were already proficient in fighting on top of horse if it was necessary.

”How about you and Xiao Yan?” Nan Luo asked.

”There’s no need.”

”Young Master, I’m not good at fighting on top of horse.”

With the two of them rejecting him, only Nan Luo and Qiu Xian who were riding horse. They were waiting for the signal from Great General Nan to start the battle.

Looking at his grandfather standing at the forefront, Nan Luo’s eyes were filled with determination. He wanted to be able to stand beside his grandfather and possibly help him. However, the gap between him and his grandfather was still so big that it would be really hard to cross it.

He didn’t listen to the talk of his grandfather and only focused on looking at the front.

When the soldiers around him cheer loudly, Nan Luo raised his head and realized that it was the signal for them to charge.

”Charge!”

”Uoooo!”

Bang!

The two armies crashed against each other, sending some unfortunate soldiers who were at the very front flying due to the impact. The battle officially started and they began to kill their enemies.

”Maintain formation!” Nan Luo yelled.

It took them some time before they finally met with that commander once more. In the meantime, Nan Luo took the chance to defeat some other commanders who crossed against his path.

”You’re still here, brat.” The commander looked at Nan Luo and furrowed his eyebrows. “How brave.”

”Isn’t it only natural?” Nan Luo sneered coldly. His other hand gave the hand signal for Xiao Yan to stay in this area and clear it. At the very least, half of the circle had to be made out of his own soldiers if he wished to stay alive after the duel once more.

”Ignorant brat!”

Swish! Clang!

*neigh*

The two of them clashed against each other, their blades threatening to kill each other. Xiao Yan watched from the back, maintaining order for the soldiers so that they would not lose their footing. He noticed that Qiu Xian was also doing the same thing as he gave order to the soldiers.

Swish! Slash! Slash! Slash!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Several soldiers died under Nan Hua’s hand as she looked around the battlefield. After confirming her target, she began to kill the soldiers around her towards that person.

”Nan, where are you going?” Xiao Yan noticed Nan Hua was breaking away from their circle.

”Doing my task. Stay here and maintain the formation.”

”Wha…?”

Before Xiao Yan could ask, Nan Hua increased her speed and no longer took a long time to deal with each person. She swiftly cut their abdomen or their neck when she passed by, sending the soldiers falling to the ground one by one like a fallen leave.

Even before they could notice what was attacking them, they had already fallen.

Xiao Yan could only watch as Nan Hua was approaching a commander that was sitting on top of his horse.

’Commander Xiong from Wei Da Kingdom is 2000 men commander, right?’

Nan Luo was already having difficulties to fight against 1000 men commander. Would Nan Hua be fine fighting against 2000 men commander?

But even if he wanted to stop her… it was practically impossible.

She was already so far away that he could only shout if he wanted to talk with her.

”Commander, there’s someone approaching fast!”

Commander Xiong, who was originally only supervising his army moving, turned his head. He furrowed his eyebrows when he saw that his defense line was breached and a shadow was coming close.

None of the soldiers he placed between his path and that person’s path last even for more than a moment.

”Leave him to me.”

Nan Hua looked at the formation that Commander Xiong had and silently despised this man. He placed so many cavalry soldiers around him, not realizing that with such limited movement, putting cavalry to protect him was utterly useless.

They would not be able to use their advantages to the fullest here.

Swish!

Clang!
