Chapter 1858 Yu Jin’s Side
What does he think?
Heavenly General Bao looked at the content within the bamboo scroll in his hand and chuckled. He naturally didn't think that Heavenly General Sang was so kindhearted to be willing to share such important information.
It was because Heavenly General Sang was unwilling to destroy his own reputation.
What kind of information would be best use in the hands of certain people. In the hands of Heavenly General Sang, this information was only something that was interesting but he couldn't do anything because it would destroy his image and dirty his hands.
But in the hands of Heavenly General Bao, this was a very interesting and valuable information that could be used well.
Heavenly General Bao knew that he was being used.
But, so what?
He didn't mind being used. Anyway, this would be able to satisfy his desire after his failure before. What other people thought about him didn't seem to matter at all. He lived for the sake of himself and will do things for his own desire and satisfaction. "Thank you for the valuable information, Heavenly General Sang." Heavenly General Bao chuckled. "I'll make sure to use it well."
Heavenly General Sang looked at Heavenly General Bao back and smiled faintly. "Good. I'll be waiting for the good news."
"Of course."
…
The next day.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The battle was continued to be as fierce as yesterday. This time, Shangguan Xiao was being much more careful than before, trying to make sure that they didn't make any mistake that could lead to their own destruction. With the other party having number advantage, it was not easy.
But surprisingly, Shangguan Xiao found out that they seemed to have reached a delicate balance. The crushing defeat from yesterday felt like a dream.
"Are they really not that strong?" General Hong asked. He also felt that the situation seemed a bit strange, but he couldn't put the words on it.
He could only turn to look at Shangguan Xiao.
"They're definitely strong." Shangguan Xiao was calm. "But the number of soldiers are less than yesterday."
It might be a crushing defeat that other people would not want to look or remember again if possible. But a mistake was made in order to let them learn from the mistake and not repeat it again in the future.
At least, that was how Shangguan Xiao saw it.
Though, he still had to be careful not to make mistakes because some mistakes were irrecoverable. Clang! Clang! Clang!
The battle continued.
Shangguan Xiao could see that they were somehow surviving, but he had a bad feeling in his heart. Hopefully, he was only thinking too much.
…
<Long distance away, Yu Jin's side>
Yu Jin has been active on the south area for some time, but it could be said that her journey was not very smooth. Bang!
"Damn it! Who the hell suggested that our supplies can be put here?" Yu Jin roared in anger. The soldiers under her were all lowering their heads. They felt ashamed when they thought that just when they thought that could finally reach the destination of the battlefield, there had to be something that stopped them from going faster. From the wrong map, the wrong direction, and now their supplies were caught and got burned? Even if not all of the supplies are gone, but the large number was still quite significant considering that the war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom wouldn't end anytime soon. Besides, the area where Yu Jin was heading would be impossible to make the supplies line. The supplies line was usually necessary for the long term battle because it would guarantee the supplies for their soldiers. Soldiers needed to eat. Thus, the supplies line could be said to be one of the few most important thins to be exist.
Fei Yang Kingdom has been increasing food production over the years for the preparation of the war. And it was only after they had enough supplies did they start to wage the war. But it didn't mean that their supplies were in big surplus.
They only had enough for around a decade of total war state.
Once the time limit was exceeded, it was estimated that they could not recover because of various reasons. Anyway, Yu Jin didn't know the details and it was the elders in the Mountain Tribe who helped to explain things to her. This allowed her to understand that this war was actually Fei Yang Kingdom betting everything on the line for the sake of their future. A future that they didn't know whether they could fulfill or not.
But isn't it because of the big dream that a person could somehow achieve something remarkable in their lives?
That was what Yu Jin believed. But now, she was pissed off. Because these valuable resources were nearly gone in the battle not long ago because those damn resources were not protected properly. The opponent caught them off guard and then targeted the supplies line.
Now that the supplies are gone, Yu Jin knew very well that her options were limited. The south is already nearby, but she kept on being hindered again and again from reaching the battlefield where she should have shone brightly. "It's… Ye Jian," one of the soldiers said tremblingly.
He felt that he was really unlucky to be the one who was in charge of the supplies along with the others. They were caught off guard and could only try their best to protect themselves and their supplies.
Many people died in that battle. He survived but not in one piece. There were many injuries in his body, but he didn't want to rest because the war is not over yet.
They had no place to go.
Those who died could only be buried on the way because they couldn't carry them. This was just how the cruel war is. "Ye Jian?" Yu Jin's eyes shot towards the young woman who was standing at the back.
