1296 Under the Night Sky (3)



Among the six, which had turned 5 by now, kingdoms, Fan Yi Kingdom was by no means weak. But because of the area they were located, it was hard for them to contend with the others.

They had to maintain the delicate balance of fighting against the force at the north and also fighting against the other three kingdoms who wanted to bite a piece of their meat.

It was not easy.

"The tribes at the north are still coming?" Nan Hua asked.

She had heard of these tribes but she was not very clear about them. After all, Fei Yang Kingdom was located relatively to the south and had never encountered these things that bordered the north.

Even if she wanted to meet them, she would have to travel a very long distance before she could do it.

Nan Hua didn't want to waste her time either.

"Yes." Long Qian Xing nodded. "It's because they have to face two fronts that I can take advantage of it to push them back."

Nan Hua thought about it and nodded.

No wonder that Long Qian Xing could establish his name so quickly on the battlefield. With the chances that was provided along with Long Qian Xing's capabilities, it would be hard for him not to make a name for himself.

As one always said, chances were given to those who are prepared.

Long Qian Xing's long preparation could finally come to the light as his name as a general resound on the battlefield.

"Are you planning to become a Great General, General Xing?"

"If there's a chance, I'll take it." Long Qian Xing smiled. "Don't you think I have the demeanor of a great general, Hua'er?"

Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "You're a good person."

What kind of demeanor a great general would have, how could she know? Every great general was different because of their personality. It was impossible for them to be the same as the other.

Long Qian Xing's lips twitched. "I don't think I ask that."

However, Nan Hua refused to give any more comment about that. With Long Qian Xing's personality and how he could act to be a gentleman all the time, she felt that it was hard to see him as threatening. But if he truly wanted to, Nan Hua knew that he could act that way.

Long Qian Xing smiled faintly when he saw Nan Hua dodged the question. Seeing the light in her eyes, he felt amused.

However, he knew better than to pester Nan Hua, so he changed the conversation, "Who do you think Zhang Xu Kingdom will send to fight against us later?"

From what he knew so far, Nan Hua's information gathering was by no means weaker than him. While he didn't know for sure what kind of forces Nan Hua had under her, but he could guess that they shouldn't be weaker than him.

Now that they were here for war, discussing a bit about this should be fine, right?

Thought if Nan Luo were to know that his sister and her fiancé was discussing war again in their free time, he would begin to wonder whether the two of them were truly lover or just comrade in arms.

He felt that he would never be able to discuss such matter with his wife if he got married in the future.

The sense of violation…

Was too strong.

Thankfully, Nan Luo knew nothing.

Nan Hua arched her eyebrows and thought for a moment. "General Shang and General Jue."

"General Jue, who is that?" Long Qian Xing frowned. This name was unfamiliar to him. From the few generals in Zhang Xu Kingdom, he had never heard of General Jue.

"He used to be 5000 men commander but he will be promoted to be a general for this battle because Zhang Xu Kingdom is lacking in personnel with the fierce battle at the north too." Nan Hua knew this from the story instead of the information agency.

However, she guessed that things would develop the same because Zhang Xu Kingdom truly needed someone to take over the position as a general. They needed more blood to fight against the other kingdoms that were eyeing them.

The timing of the earthquake was really bad, which put Zhang Xu Kingdom in the cusp of storm with many others wanted to take advantage of him.

Thus, the promotion had to be done.

"I see. No wonder I never heard his name before." Long Qian Xing chuckled.

If it was 5000 men Commander Jue, he still remembered that person. It was the person who liked fighting so much aside from Fang Sheng Lin in Zhang Xu Kingdom. However, he hadn't met with the other party.

Considering that he himself was still growing and his strength will still increase as time passed, Long Qian Xing was thinking whether he could defeat the other party or not. They should be on par.

He could try later if they met on the battlefield.

"Mhm."

"You're very informed of the news from Zhang Xu Kingdom. Is it hard, Hua'er?" Long Qian Xing asked slowly. He had his own information gathering small organization that helped him with gathering information from all over the world.

However, he knew very well that it was not easy to maintain them.

Not to mention, the methods for gathering information in this world was not easy. There was no paper yet and they had to use bamboo strips or skins to deliver information.

Honestly, he himself wanted to make paper.

But that would destroy the history line.

And there were definitely not many people who could work on that line of business for the time being. Everyone's attention was on war and how to win this war. He could only make a small portion of paper for his own use.

As for promoting it?

Please, he was not an engineer who could make the ancient papermaking equipment. He had only seen the picture and didn't know the specific design. Though, he could also try if he really wanted to.
