Chapter 1875 Can’t I Even Do 1 Last Thing?
General Feng's fingers clenched into a fist.
He felt that he was really useless in this war. If he had been able to hold on Heavenly General Bao even longer on his battlefield, there was no way Fei Yang Kingdom would lose so quickly and miserably like this.
The war they had been trying so hard to win was now slowly crumbling.
Many soldiers died and what they received was the news of Fei Yang Kingdom's defeat. And he was one of the participants, the shameful one who couldn't even win the war in front of him. 'Calm down.'
Fei Yang Kingdom hadn't lost completely yet. They could still overcome this.
General Feng believed that Fei Yang Kingdom would remain victorious in the end. Fei Yang Kingdom is strong and had been building their momentum and forces for years. But right now, all he could do was to do his duty well and never ever let Fei Yang Kingdom lost from his side again!
…
<Long distance away, Border between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom, the east border of Fei Yang Kingdom and northwest border of Shi Long Kingdom.>
Shangguan Xian led the soldiers back to the previous border. At this area, there were also the defense line that he had built over the years when he was guarding the border.
However, his situation was not very good.
Aside from pacing his soldiers to return as fast as possible, he was unable to fall asleep at night. The miserable battle a few days ago lingered in his heart.
Bang!
"There's an ambush!"
Shangguan Xian, who was already in bad situation, furrowed his eyebrows. "Form the defense line! Resist them!"
"Yes, General Shangguan!"
No matter how much fear they had inside their heart, these people all do their best to make sure that they were able to defeat the incoming army.
"That flag…"
"How come Heavenly General Bao's soldiers are here?"
The soldiers were filled with rage and anger when they saw that flag. More than anything, they were reminded of their pain just a few days ago when they were fighting against Heavenly General Bao and was defeated so painfully.
"He's Heavenly General Bao's adjutant, Adjutant Bo," Shangguan Xiao yelled. "Don't be afraid and maintain the formation!"
Clang! Clang! Clang!
As the two soldiers clashed against each other, Shangguan Xiao was surveying the situation. They were ambushed midway and they definitely couldn't retreat back. The best way to escape would be to breakthrough at the middle and passed by the road.
While he was thinking about the way to escape, he was thinking about why Heavenly General Bao's adjutant could be here.
They had been hurrying and it was impossible to interject based on the terrain.
Unless…
They have been sent here in the first place.
Shangguan Xiao's eyes narrowed. He gnashed his teeth as he realized that these heavenly general from Shi Long Kingdom was playing them. Even if the one who mocked them back then was Heavenly General Bao, he guessed that the one who took their family members had to be Heavenly General Sang.
What a good calculation.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
"Move forward! We will be able to go safely!" Shangguan Xian yelled on top of his lungs. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The soldiers were tired, but they didn't want to give up. They had lost so many of their comrades, their family members, just from these soldiers in front of them. Fueled by anger, they kept on charging forward.
Shangguan Xian knew that this situation would not last long, so he was the one who led from the very front, trying to force his way forward.
Clang!
"You won't be able to escape, General Shangguan." Adjutant Bo watched the situation in front of him with smile.
Heavenly General Bao sent him here in order to intercept Shangguan Xian and the others so that they would be able to kill and eliminate General Shangguan completely. After all, it was not fun to let so many soldiers return to Fei Yang Kingdom.
After their defeat, it would be more interesting to kill more soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom.
"Shut up!" Shangguan Xian roared and raised his sword.
Clang! Slash! Slash!
He used his entire strength, making his way out of the surroundings area at the fastest speed possible. Even if he knew that his method was reckless and that he was doing stupid things, he still felt the pain in his heart.
Due to war, he had lost so many people.
His grandfather, his father, his uncles, and now even his wife and children.
It was to the point that Shangguan Xian was asking himself whether it was worth it. Was it worth it for his entire family to be destroyed for the sake of Fei Yang Kingdom's future that he couldn't even see nor enjoy?
He's a soldier.
A general who lead thousands of soldiers on the frontline.
But he's also a human being, a normal man who had his desire, feelings, and thoughts.
Losing so many things, he was already on his breaking points. At this moment, everything in front of him didn't seem to matter that much anymore. Even if others say that he's a failure as a general, he didn't mind their evaluation. Because he knew that he had made a lot of mistakes.
Now, just let him… bring these soldiers back!
This is the least he could do!
Bang!
Killing countless Shi Long Kingdom's soldiers, Shangguan Xian roared loudly. "Continue!"
"Yes!"
Amidst tears, rage, and others, the soldiers kept on charging forward.
They will follow their general!
"Madman." Adjutant Bo watched the soldiers' movement in front of him and cursed in a low voice. "Archers! Get ready to shoot them all!"
There was a small hill not far from the ambush point and Adjutant Bo had prepared the archers there. The moment they received the order, they took out their weapon and aimed.
Shangguan Xian looked at the countless arches aiming at them and closed his eyes. Unwillingness and aggrievedness filled his entire heart. 'Can't I even do this one last thing?'
