Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

Chapter 83: First Battle



83 First Battle

The losses on Mountain Kingdom side are really big. They have lost some of the capable officers during the battle with most of them are because of one person. General Hen is looking towards the report with disbelief. He cannot believe that only a single day and they had lost thousands of soldiers with a few capable officers.

"Just what kind of monster is this Jun Min?" he looks towards General Tou who has a complicated face plastered on his not so young face anymore.

"He's a youngster," General Tou laughed a bit. "I think still in his teens. If you meet him, you won't believe that he's a general."

"Why?" General Hen asks confused.

"The kid is only half of your height and his built is slender. If not for seeing him slaying the commander, I wouldn't have believed it too," General Tou answered.

Hearing from the great general mouth, the other officers have their face ashen. How could they supposedly believe that a kid can possibly beat them? This is not fairy tale. This is battlefield.

"Even if you don't believe me, you will see him tomorrow. I will duel with him and fight to my heart's content."

Hearing the general words, they feel even more conflicted. General Tou is a general from a long time ago. Many people have heard about his greatness and all. He's basically an old person who's still active on the battlefield and fight out with whoever he wants. Most of the youngsters are not his opponent and he would simply beat them up without care.

If he said that there is someone who could match him, most of them are already adult or even old like him. A youth possessing power and ability to match him is simply unbelievable. The general are all feeling conflicted towards the general decision, but it's not their places to speak so all they could do is follow.

General Tou looks towards the wall and smiled slightly. That youth is highly interesting. Despite being only in his youth, he possessed the ability to turn the table around and battle efficiently, totally unlike a normal youth.

He's eager to have the battle with him.

"You said you made a promise with General Tou to battle with him?" Jun Qing feels that his niece is nothing but a trouble.

"Yes."

"Do you know how powerful General Tou is? How many people do you think have died in his hand? He's a war veteran, unlike a greenhorn general like you!"

Jun Min pursed his lips. He knows all of that. Among the people, who didn't know the name of the famous great general from the older times? General Tuo is among them all and he's also the only one still active. There are several other great generals who are only around the age of 40-something still active. But for the above 50, only General Tuo is still actively fighting on the battlefield.

In truth, Jun Min is highly surprised to find out that the old man she thought as dangerous would turn out to be a great general. He himself cannot categorize himself as a great general because of his young age and not so great achievement. With the lacking of experience, it could be said that he's not a match for a great general.

Unfortunately, for Jun Min it's a great opportunity. He had long wished to contend with a great general and now that the opportunity presented before him, he won't back down. Besides, if he doesn't fight with that old general, he will go on killing spree towards his soldiers and possibly killed most of them.

"You're not allowed to fight against him! You will lose your life," Jun Qing hurriedly declined. There's no way he's going to let Jun Min fight that old monster. Should something happen to Jun Min, there will be no hope left for their Jun Family.

Jun Min shakes his head. "Uncle, if I'm not fighting him, there will be no one else capable to stop him. Or do you want to go down there and fight with him?"

Among the people in this place, only Jun Qing and Jun Min have the greatest fighting capability. In terms of strength, Jun Qing is indeed higher than Jun Min, but the little kid has been fighting against stronger people over and over again. It makes him could contend against people stronger than him in a battle for longer time.

Jun Qing looks with reluctant. If he were to go down, it would be indeed possible for him to battle with that monster. The problem is Jun Min doesn't have the capability when it comes to arranging a defensive battle. The little kid is more aggressive and he would definitely more keen on attacking. It makes his head ache as even when they're on the defensive side, the kid would suddenly launch an offensive battle.

"Uncle, I'm not a kid anymore," Jun Min said again. He knows that his uncle doesn't want him to get hurt. But he cannot protect him forever and it's not the first time Jun Min fight against people stronger than him.

"Preserve your life. The soldier still needs you."

"I know."

Jun Min knows that without him, the soldier will have their emotions raged and fight towards the enemy without care for themselves. They are more than willing to sacrifice themselves in order to protect him. He had experience it once before and he doesn't want his soldiers to die meaningless too. The battle has just begun.

The next day, the formation of both parties is still the same, but this time, Jun Min and General Tou search for each other to fight.

"Are you ready, Youngster?"

"More than anything."

General Tou started attacking and Jun Min does his best to defend. The power from the strike given by General Tou is truly hard, but for Jun Min who had been fighting against Soujin every week, it is lighter. He sidestepped to the side and blocked the blow while at the same time attack the general. General Tou moved a step and evades the attack from Jun Min. Both of them are powerful.
