Chapter 1298 Invasion War Against Zhang Xu Kingdom (1)
"There are only 3000 men or so." Long Qian Xing's sharp eyes immediately calculated the numbers and narrowed his eyes. "They're trying to hinder our movement?"
"Even if they want to, this number is too small." General Chi also looked towards the soldiers. His eyes swept the valley and when his eyes noticed the word written on the banner, his pupil shook.
It was written Chi.
And with the color and style, he knew very well that it was Chi Song Hui, his second son who chose to stay behind in Zhang Xu Kingdom.
Long Qian Xing's eyes narrowed when he saw the flag. He naturally knew very well the meaning behind this flag. The person who was at that side was naturally General Chi's son who didn't follow to Fei Yang Kingdom.
Now that General Chi's first son had died, he only has one descendant left.
In this situation, would he possibly fight against his son?
General Chi closed his eyes for a moment and then waved his hand. "Arrange for someone to take care of the army at the side."
"Yes, General Chi!"
Long Qian Xing was controlling his horse while listening to General Chi's order. He's not a father, but he knew that it wouldn't be easy for General Chi to give the order to kill his own son. No matter how far away they had been these times, did they truly have no feelings between father and son?
He didn't know.
But he knew very well that this was one of the reasons why his father, Great General Long (The title had changed because of his rise in rank. It was previously General Long), didn't want to have good relationship with General Chi. It was because he understood that should General Chi's scale tilted towards his own family, he could betray Fei Yang Kingdom.
'Is it the correct decision to send him here this time?' Long Qian Xing pondered but eventually said nothing.
If General Chi were to turn against them, he had already prepared countermeasure. Human's heart was really hard to understand and Long Qian Xing didn't want to take the gamble if it was unnecessary.
At the same time, he lamented that his father was not here.
If the one here was Great General Long, Long Qian Xing knew that his father would be able to handle the matter better. After all, his father had already interacted with General Chi for a longer period of time and naturally knew this man better.
It was not as shallow as Long Qian Xing.
"You don't have to worry." General Chi didn't look at Long Qian Xing, but he could guess what the other party was thinking. Having clashed with Long Qian Xing's father several times, he knew why that man always hated him so much.
Wasn't it because they doubted his loyalty?
He knew it very well.
"I haven't said anything, General Chi," Long Qian Xing responded politely.
General Chi took a deep breath. His eyes were focused on the scenery in front of him. Even if he wanted things to change, it was not possible. From the very beginning, his failure had caused his family to be incomplete.
Nothing could change that anymore.
"We're not standing on the opposite side. There's nothing that can change it anymore."
Nothing?
Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows but said nothing.
If that was what General Chi decided, he will not interfere. As long as General Chi didn't betray Fei Yang Kingdom, he would not interfere with other decision that General Chi made for himself.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
From the distance, the sound of fighting could be heard. Long Qian Xing knew that the army sent out must have met with Chi Song Hui's army.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The one sent to meet with Chi Song Hui's army was Mu Sheng Xi's army. In fact, Feng Ao Si also wanted to try his luck, but Mu Sheng Xi went out first. He said that Feng Ao Si must be tired after repeated battle yesterday, so it was his turn this time.
Feng Ao Si couldn't say anything.
"Damn! You could have just ignored us!" Chi Song Hui cursed when he saw Mu Sheng Xi's army charging towards them.
Mu Sheng Xi sneered. "As if I would do that. Charge!"
"Damn you!"
Clang! Clang! Clang!
It was not an ambush because the terrain didn't make it possible. Neither side also seemed to care about that as they continued to clash heavily.
Sound of battle could be heard even from a distance away.
Feng Ao Si was watching and blinked his eyes. "Shall we help him? I'm still itching to have more battles."
Behind him, Dai's face was already as black as a pot. Feng Ao Si's soldiers were already being pushed around yesterday and now he wanted to fight again? Did he think that all of his soldiers were as strong as him?
Their stamina was not unlimited like him, okay?
"Leave it be. If you got left behind, you might not be able to catch up with the main army later." Feng Ao Kuai shook his head.
"Why did the two generals not clear these soldiers by themselves?"
"Because the one there is Chi Song Hui." Nan Luo naturally also noticed those flags and knew that there was no way General Chi would want to charge against his son personally. Asking him not to care about his son's life and death was one thing but being the one to personally send his son to death was another thing.
Besides, they have more important task this time to charge forward and gain as much territory as possible from Zhang Xu Kingdom during this period of time.
There was no time to engage in useless battles.
"Chi Song Hui?" Feng Ao Si was stunned. "He's here?"
