It was only after they had finished eating that Nan Luo remembered that he didn't pay any attention to Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing. But looking at the side, he saw that Long Qian Xing had already left while Nan Hua was standing behind him calmly.
He blinked his eyes.
Does it mean that he didn't have to worry?
…
The days passed by quietly.
The journey to the north border was rather smooth and the other cities they encountered gave up without much resistance. They willingly give in to Fei Yang Kingdom and didn't seem to have that much affection to Wei Da Kingdom.
"These cities used to be part of Qi Xi Kingdom," Long Qian Xing explained when he saw Feng Ao Si's confused face.
"Huh? But they're now part of Wei Da… eh wrong, I mean part of Fei Yang Kingdom?" Feng Ao Si asked.
Long Qian Xing nodded. Many decades ago, there was a big war that caused Qi Xi Kingdom's size to shrunk. It would be hard for Qi Xi Kingdom to be categorized as a big kingdom now, but their influence was still there, so they were still called as a big kingdom alongside the others.
Other kingdoms were taking their territory or giving some compensation. After all neither Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom bordered Qi Xi Kingdom. Wei Da Kingdom, Fan Yi Kingdom, and Shi Long Kingdom had taken a good chunk of Qi Xi Kingdom's territory.
These cities are part of Qi Xi Kingdom in the past.
They might have known the fate of resisting, so no one thought about that and just simply gave up.
If they could live well by being part of Fei Yang Kingdom, who would think about anything else? They didn't have the energy and mind to care about the other higher ranks people's problem.
"The cities are moving territories from time to time." Sheng Shan Lang also knew about this matter after experiencing it a several times during his journey with his soldiers. However, he was not exactly clear about the history like the others.
"We're reaching the north border."
"Oh."
When it was said, the three commanders tacitly stopped talking. They turned to look at the front and saw the big city in front of them with tall walls and also soldiers preparing for battle.
Sheng Shan Lang sneered. "So that General Kai is ready to fight, huh? I guess his name and reputation for staying here to guard against Fan Yi Kingdom is not just rumor."
Feng Ao Si blinked his eyes. "Is it possible to be a rumor?"
"If there are someone else behind the scene, they can also help General Kai stabilized his position." Nan Luo shrugged. "We'll know later. What's the battle plan, Young Commander Long?"
They all turned to look at Long Qian Xing.
