1121 [Bonus chapter]The Next Mission

Nan Hua walked to Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai then her gaze moved to the side. She saw Long Qian Xing stood there and a light flashed within her eyes for a brief moment. She could sense that someone had arrived, but she didn't know who.

"Hmm?" Nan Luo noticed Nan Hua's gaze and saw Long Qian Xing. His expression turned dark, but he still restrained himself. "I didn't expect to see you here, Young Commander Long."

"I also get the next assignment at similar place with you, Young Commander Nan." Long Qian Xing cupped his fist and walked closer. He was looking at Nan's direction and felt somewhat awe and attraction when he was watching Nan not long ago.

This made him feel a bit strange.

But he had to admit that for this Adjutant Nan to be able to attract the attention of the Emperor back then and earned merit from her first battle had already proved that 'he' was not ordinary.

This scene just now proved it.

How many people were able to thoroughly crushed these newcomers so cleanly like this?

After all, some of them had come from a military family and had some martial art skill. But in front of Nan Hua, their skills were nothing more than a joke.

They were simply there to be beaten up and there was nothing that they could do but to stand there and accepted their fate.

"We'll have the same mission?" Nan Luo was stunned.

"In this important battle, all available personnel will definitely be deployed." Long Qian Xing smiled. "The next battle wouldn't be easy. I hope that you're ready for what's going to come, Young Commander Nan, Second Young Commander Feng."

The two of them were stunned.

A determined expression appeared on Nan Luo's face. "Naturally, I'll be fully prepared for this, Young Commander Long. You don't have to worry about me at all."

"Young Commander Long, wouldn't it be better for you to prepare yourself too?" Feng Ao Kuai asked with a faint smile.

Long Qian Xing chuckled.

He didn't say anything more and left after giving his farewell.

However, his words struck clear on Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai's mind. They knew very well that the total war state that Fei Yang Kingdom has been planning for so many years would start.

It meant that they would truly begin to conquer other kingdoms and achieved total control over the areas that previously belonged to them.

This wouldn't be easy.

After all, their opponents were the other five kingdoms.

Would they stay silent if they were being attacked like that? Only an idiot would do something so stupid like that.

"Fei Yang Kingdom is already ready?" Nan Luo asked quietly.

"It should be." Feng Ao Kuai took a deep breath. "From the very moment we're breaching into Wei Da Kingdom and then towards other kingdom's border to expand our own border, haven't you realized that it's all preparation for this."

Their border was no longer the same as a few years ago. They had entered the areas that previously belonged to Zhang Xu Kingdom, Wei Da Kingdom, and even Shi Long Kingdom. The distance was not big, but Fei Yang Kingdom was slowly building the necessary fortress and road for them to advance further.

The total war would be inevitable.

But they didn't expect it to happen this quickly either.

"In that case, the next move should be to take over a kingdom thoroughly?" Nan Luo asked in a low voice, trying his best to suppress his excitement.

He had been waiting for this.

Waiting for the time when Fei Yang Kingdom reached their claws towards the other kingdoms around them and took them under their rule.

"Presumably, the next step will be critical." Feng Ao Kuai narrowed his eyes. "We'll take over the three cities formation."

Three cities formation.

It was naturally not the name of the city, but the nicknames for three cities position. The three cities, which were located at the border between Zhang Xu Kingdom and Wei Da Kingdom had triangle formation that was unique.

This uniqueness of the position allowed soldiers from every city to send reinforcement easily should other cities needed it. This was the protection that allowed Wei Da Kingdom to survive under Zhang Xu Kingdom's severe attacks for decades.

The advantages were obvious.

And there were also other generals who were positioned there, ready to defend against Zhang Xu Kingdom's treacherous attacks.

And since Zhang Xu Kingdom also had to focus on their other border, they hadn't had the time to break this formation. It will take a lot of manpower and also efficient strategy to break this defense of Wei Da Kingdom.

It was not the top priority of Zhang Xu Kingdom, so they didn't step in before.

"The San* Cities?" Nan Luo arched his eyebrows. "Is it because we're now already advancing into areas that previously belong to Zhang Xu Kingdom?"

Right now, the San Cities formation is bordering Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom. It was located north of Xia Mountains and with the fierce attack from the mountain queen, they had quite a lot of access towards this formation to break towards Wei Da Kingdom deeper.

The Capital City would be much closer if they managed to destroy this formation and took over the three cities.

"Yes." Feng Ao Kuai thought over the mission scroll given to them not long ago. "I believe that we'll be participating in the siege soon. It seems that you have to select the new soldiers faster than expected."

"Got it." Nan Luo glanced at the beaten up soldiers, smiling wryly.

Well, he just had to somehow make sure that they didn't completely break their confidence after the thorough beating.

Nan Hua listened at their conversation and knew that the next target would be the San Cities formation. This should have been the role of other commanders, but now it had fallen to Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai's hand.

She looked in the direction where Long Qian Xing had left and then retracted her gaze.

Even though she wanted to talk to him, she didn't want to disturb him before the next battle.

Whether they could win or not depended on whether they could take over this San Cities formation or not.
