Chapter 278: Strategy Talk
278 Strategy Talk
180 days after the assassination of the imperial family
Because of the two forces work together, Kai Kingdom almost couldn't protect itself. As city by city fallen, they could only watch from the sidelines. No matter what they do, they couldn't stop the two forces until they came to their capital border.
"General Soujin asked for a meeting with the Mountain force leader."
When the two forces meet, a messenger came to the Mountain Kingdom side. General Tou frowned. The one who led the soldiers in truth was Jun Hua, but he was the one who led them on the frontline.
He needed to talk with Jun Hua first when he saw the girl come outsider her tent, looking highly calm. She stared towards the messenger and General Tou.
"Do you need me to come along?"
The sound of a female was highly conspicuous in the battlefield where the soldiers were mostly men. The messenger wanted to raise his head, but he didn't dare to. Somehow he felt that if he did that, it would be the end of him in this world.
General Tou nodded. "I think it will be more convenient."
"I see," Jun Hua felt that she was not ready to meet with Soujin and the other right now.
However, this was already six months since the incident and she has already busied herself with the battle. The conquest to Kai Kingdom was just the beginning. She knew that the battle would not over that soon and sooner or later she would need to face with him again.
"You're ready?" General Tou asked worriedly. Ever since the girl return to Mountain Kingdom and the start of the war, she had been exhausting herself with many matters. The girl body won't be able to hold that much stress and it was possible that she might get hurt.
"Yes."
With the messenger led the way, General Tou walked with Jun Hua by his side. When they walked to the Nanglong family territory, the soldiers hurriedly make way for them. They recognized Jun Hua since she come with Soujin to their training field in the past. But, they didn't understand why the girl was with the Mountain Kingdom army.
"General Soujin, they are here."
Soujin stood up from his chair. He looked towards the two people who came, and his eyes wavered a bit. He knew that the leader from Mountain Kingdom was General Tou, but he didn't know that the strategist, Jun Hua, would come along.
He wanted to meet with her badly, especially since their last meeting ended in a hurry with the girl didn't talk much to him.
"General Soujin," General Tou greeted.
"General Tou, Strategist Hua," Soujin greeted back.
Jun Hua smiled. "General Soujin. Is there anything you need?"
"For the attack to the capital of Kai Kingdom, I was wondering if you want to take the lead or should I do it instead?" to avoid conflict, it was better for them to clarify it first.
Jun Hua looked towards the map. "Does it necessary for one of us to lead the war? Why don't we just attack at separate wall? The Nanglong soldiers are proficient in battle from the forest while Mountain Kingdom is more proficient in battle from the mountain. It will be hard for two different forces like us to collaborate if we are forced."
She pointed to one part of the city. "The capital of Kai Kingdom is big, there is nothing wrong in attacking from different side using our own tactics and forces. That way, we could use the cards on our hand at the most efficient way. How do you think of this plan, General Soujin?"
Soujin had indeed thought about that, but he didn't think that Jun Hua would be so meticulous to even think which wall would be more efficient for each of them. It seemed the little girl already prepared for the battle even better than him.
"If that's what you want, we could do it that way."
Jun Hua smiled. At first, she too wanted the two of them to collaborate together so she could lead the soldier with him again. However, in the end she couldn't do it. It would be better for them to just do this with their own way.
"Thank you General Soujin. If there is nothing else, we will return."
"Wait for a moment. Your friend would come here soon," Soujin pointed towards the door.
Jun Hua eyes shook for a moment when she noticed that familiar person not far from the tent. A woman was running towards her with an excited expression like a child. It seemed she had been waiting for a long time and now felt impatient to meet with the other party again.
"Jun Hua!" the woman, Fan Lanying waved her hand.
It has been more than one year since the last time they meet. Jun Hua was already 16 while Fan Lanying already turned 17. They have missed each other very badly.
"Fan Lanying, you're already a commander?" Jun Hua asked in a surprised tone. This girl was really quick to raise her rank.
"Hehehe, come with me for a while. I want to talk with you again!" with that Fan Lanying pulled Jun Hua away from the tent, completely forgetting the two generals near them.
Seeing the two of them, Soujin chuckled a bit. Jun Hua's reaction upon seeing Fan Lanying was really cute. He really hoped to be able to have her by his side even more.
"General Tou, it seemed we can talk while waiting."
"It will be my pleasure."
