Chapter 2296: Escape
Xiao Yan nodded at Mu Yan's words.
He would not deny it because it was right.
After years of spending his time on the battlefield, he was no longer the same young man as
he used to be when they were still in the Nan Family Residence.
One thing for sure, he has become more mature.
"Do you think it's better for the current me or the previous me?" Xiao Yan asked mischievously.
Mu Yan arched her eyebrows and chuckled. "The current you is much better, Xiao Yan. You laugh more and look really handsome."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"This... cough."
Seeing Xiao Yan's red face, Mu Yan laughed lightly.
He's really cute.
At the side, Dai, who saw this interaction silently felt that it was his mistake for coming here.
He should have stayed and worked overnight to finish his work.
Why did he want to mingle with these couples?
He felt really sour!
Should he go and ask Feng Ao Si to find him a woman? But thinking about the work that was piled up for him to do... Dai thought that he should not spend his time thinking about unnecessary things.
Dai sighed deeply.
When these people didn't notice, he quickly left.
He had enough of watching!
...
The next day, Fei Yang Kingdom's army was split into two, two generals went to the north while the other two continued their way to Fan Yi Kingdom's Capital City. The second group will meet with General Huang who was blocking the way but the other group would not be blocked.
Fan Yi Kingdom didn't have enough soldiers to block so many routes. Even if they could block, they would only end up dying if the number was far from enough.
So Long Qian Xing's path could be said to be very smooth.
Shan Yu naturally followed Yu Jin and Wei Da Lang was the leader.
Traveling Doctor Liu sighed deeply because he couldn't spend more time with his disciples, but it was already satisfying enough to talk for some time with those brats.
As for the war?
Traveling Doctor Liu would not get himself involved.
Shi Hao Yi also knew that the war was far from over, but he also had no intention to side with anyone. In the first place, the main reason why he had to get involved before was because his disciple was caught.
Now, he simply focused on his daily lives.
Yu Zheng Xi stayed beside Traveling Doctor Liu, silently listening to various news that was
sent from the frontline. He thought about the generals at the north and suddenly felt that it would be an interesting meeting.
After all, they would not want to watch Fan Yi Kingdom fall so easily.
...
<North of Fan Yi Kingdom, General Yang's side>
The letter from Fan Yi Kingdom's Emperor had long arrived at the north border. The messenger risked his life, traveling day and night just to deliver the message before the arrival of Fei Yang Kingdom's soldiers.
There were three generals at the north.
After General Jin's loss, he regrouped with General Yang, so only General Gao was not staying with the other two generals. There were still two main defense area on the north and the situation was not very good.
Thankfully, they were able to survive the winter.
But if the war were to continue without any reinforcement from Fan Yi Kingdom, it was truly unknown how long they could stay here.
Prime Minister Yang was already in his forties and sat outside the hut. He was looking at the letter in front of him, his expression was dark.
"Brother, is it so bad?" Not far from him, a man who looked similar with Prime Minister Yang came forward. He was dressed in metal armor and still carried weapon on his back. It could be said that he would not leave his weapon behind no matter where he went.
Prime Minister Yang glanced at General Yang and replied, "The situation is really bad. Fan Yi Kingdom is on the verge of losing against Fei Yang Kingdom."
"They're about to lose?" General Yang frowned.
Even if they were all on the north and so on, they were still informed about the war on the south. After all, it was impossible for them not to know anything about it when their request for reinforcement has been rejected over and over.
It was just that neither of the two could think that Fan Yi Kingdom's situation would be so bad that the three generals at the north would be called back.
"Yes. They want us to go back to Fan Yi Kingdom's Capital City," Prime Minister Yang said calmly.
"That's impossible." General Yang shook his head in refusal.
He had been staying at the border for a long time and rise to become a general here. Aside
from visiting his wife and children, he didn't usually go out from the border.
Now, his brother was saying that Fan Yi Kingdom's Emperor asked them to go back?
General Yang would never go.
"I know you'll say that," Prime Minister Yang replied, not surprised by his brother's answer. He himself didn't want to go back, but he knew that they had to do something.
And as the prime minister, can he ignore Fan Yi Kingdom's Emperor's order?
Well...
It was not impossible.
When Prime Minister Yang came here, he also ignored some orders for the sake of Fan Yi Kingdom. But now, Prime Minister Yang was not sure whether his decision to stay on the border would be for the best or not.
Because he could see that there was a chance Fan Yi Kingdom will lose to Fei Yang Kingdom.
"So, are you going back?" General Yang asked.
He wouldn't go back but it didn't mean that his brother wouldn't go back. After all, it wasn't impossible for Prime Minister Yang to go back by himself.
Prime Minister Yang glanced at his brother and replied, "I'm thinking of sending General Jin back. He would want to protect his family more than us."
