Chapter 1302 Third Day (1)
Both Wei Mu Bai and Wei Mu Ya was unfazed with their father’s indifferent tone. They were already used to it after interacting with their own father for so many years. There was no way that they could possibly shake him with their mere presence.
“Father, I would like to request to be moved towards the east area,” Wei Mu Bai replied while cupping his fist.
“Father, I would like to support my brother,” Wei Mu Ya added
General Wei looked at the two children who were no longer that young anymore. He tapped the table. “Are you sure that you can defeat him?”
They didn’t say anything but General Wei knew the formation of the soldiers in Zhang Xu Kingdom. For him, it was a child’s play for him to understand what had happened on the other side.
“Father, I’m a 4000 men commander,” Wei Mu Bai said solemnly. It has been a while since the last time he was promoted. Hearing the other young commanders were also making their name one by one made him somewhat uncomfortable.
His youthful competitiveness made him unwilling to lose.
“I request your approval to fight against General Cong.” Wei Mu Bai cupped his fist.
General Cong was a new general who was assigned to this area to help with Prime Minister Lei. After all, there was no doubt that Fei Yang Kingdom would begin to launch big offensive attack against Zhang Xu Kingdom.
“General Cao is in charge of the battle against General Cong.” General Wei looked at his son deeply. “You’re welcomed to assist him.”
Wei Mu Bai smiled. “Thank you, Father.”
General Wei then looked at his first daughter, Wei Mu Ya. This daughter of his was not that capable and even as a 1000 men commander, she was still lacking in many areas. She was already getting older and in accordance to the custom in this era, she had long past the marriageable age.
“Mu Ya, the age limit is 20 years old.” General Wei looked at his first daughter deeply. “If you still can’t prove to me that you’re capable on your own, you will return obediently and stay with your younger sister.”ππͺπππππxt.π¬πͺπ
Wei Mu Ya’s fingers clasped to form a fist. She’s already 19 years old and would turn 20 soon enough. Rather than achieving merit, she had been losing countless times on the battlefield.
Normally, those commanders who kept on losing would be disbanded or demoted. However, her father was still giving her chance and helped from time to time, allowing her to achieve victory.
But it was not enough.
She had to be able to stand on her own if she wished to continue as a commander on the battlefield. With her current capabilities, she was nothing more than a low ranked soldier who could only follow order.
“Yes, Father.” Wei Mu Ya bowed.
The two of them then walked out of their father’s study room, no longer bothering him. It was silence as the two of them walked in the corridor until Wei Mu Bai spoke out.
“If you need help, I can help you, Mu Ya.”
“I know, Brother Bai.” Wei Mu Ya knew her brother is kind to her and willing to help her. Their relationship was good with each other. But she didn’t want to bother him again and again.
Wei Mu Bai looked at his stubborn sister and felt somewhat helpless. The two of them were indeed brother and sisters, but they could also be said to be rival. Fighting at the frontline for so many years had allowed them to temper their body and mind.
But at the same time, it didn’t erase their competitiveness.
He’s older than Wei Mu Ya by three years, so he only felt that it was natural for him to rank higher than her. Unless Wei Mu Ya showed exceptional talent, it would be hard to catch up with him.
Besides, he also felt distressed to see his younger sister being so troubled like this.
“If you do well in this war, Father will give you more chances.” Wei Mu Bai pointed to the barracks. “Rest for the time being. Tomorrow will be another big battle.”
Wei Mu Ya looked at her older brother and nodded. “Yes, Brother Bai.”
The two brother and sister looked at each other before they went on their separate ways.

<Fei Yang Kingdom’s side, Long Qian Xing and the others’ side>
The night passed by quietly. When it was morning, the soldiers came out of their tent, heading towards their designated frontline. Their commanders were ready earlier than them, standing at the front.
Feng Ao Kuai watched them all while assigning his soldiers in the headquarters. He didn’t really like this, but he knew very well that he was not qualified to go front and fought a decisive offensive battle.
At the very least, he was not really suitable right now.
Gong!
The gong signaling the start of the battle sounded.
“Everyone, charge forward!” General Chi was sitting on his warhorse at the very front. He looked into the distance, looking very ready to charge forward with the soldiers following behind him.
“Uooooo.”
Walking fast into the alley, General Chi had spotted the opposite soldiers very quickly. The corner of his lips curled up to form a smirk. “So the one here is you, General Shang.”
General Shang narrowed his eyes when he saw the incoming soldiers and snorted. He had fought with General Chi when he was younger. At that time, the two of them cooperated quite well.
Who would have thought that they eventually became enemies and had to fight against each other?
Fate always worked in the strange ways.
“Readied your shield!” General Shang yelled.
“YES!”
The soldiers held their soldiers tightly, making sure that they put it at the very front to block the incoming surge of soldiers.
General Chi watched the soldiers who were wielding the shield and sneered.
Do you really think such puny shield would be able to block him?
How naΓ―ve.
Bang!
SLASH!
