Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 1102

1102 Hard to Deal With

10,000 was not a small number.

At the very least, General Cao knew that normally, it would be impossible for so many people to die so easily just because of an avalanche. Just how many people were staying in that Thunder Valley to be able to cause so much casualties?

He looked at Feng Ao Kuai, who seemed to not have any intention to report more about the cause and effect of the avalanche.

But he had the feeling that this young man knew more about that avalanche.

Did he predict it?

But no matter how he did it, to be able to lure more 10,000 soldiers with nothing more than 4,000 soldiers were already a feat. It was a battle where they had the disadvantages in number.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that this was actually an achievement.

Yet, Feng Ao Kuai seemed to be saying that the avalanche was nothing more than an ‘accident’ that occurred when they were ‘coincidentally’ there with so many of their opponents nearby.

“That’s a great news, Second Young Commander Feng.” General Cao smiled.

.....

Feng Ao Kuai cupped his fist. “It’s the Heaven’s Will that allowed us to survive, General Cao. However, we still couldn’t fully escape the disaster, which is why I can only send them towards Han Yue City first.”

General Cao waved his hand. “I won’t blame you for this. It’s not your fault that your soldiers are caught in the natural disaster. Until your soldiers are healed, you’re allowed to stay there.”

“Many thanks for General Cao’s kind words.” Feng Ao Kuai cupped his fist.

“Is there anything else?”

“This one would like to ask about our deployment situation after this. Would we still return to Thunder Valley?” Feng Ao Kuai asked calmly, his eyes were staring straight at General Cao without any fear or nervousness within.

“That will be decided later.” General Cao waved his hand.

“That’s all.”

“You can leave.”

Feng Ao Kuai turned around and left. His eyes glinted when he thought about the answer that General Cao provided to him. With the way General Cao easily sent reinforcement, he knew very well that there was no way that General Cao was lacking people anywhere in this area.

It meant that there were only two possibilities left.

One, there was someone purposely blocked the message.

Two, General Cao simply didn’t want to send any reinforcement because of some reasons he was against them.

‘I’ll think about it later.’

General Cao watched as Feng Ao Kuai left and took a deep breath. Being looked at Feng Ao Kuai, he felt as if the young man was actually evaluating him. It was a faint feeling that he felt whenever he met with some powerful people like Great General Nan or General Wei.

These two people could give people a sense of oppression even though they were only looking in his direction.

It was both strange and nerve-wracking.
