"General Shangguan, they're still trying to attack us fiercely. The number of casualties are increasing," the soldier gave report. General Shangguan, Shangguan Xiao, was silent. He was not used using this title that used to be his brother's title yet. But with his brother's words, he was indeed appointed as the general in this area and responsible for Fei Yang Kingdom's defense until the next general arrival. Shangguan Xian will never return to the battlefield. Not after what he had experienced here. And Shangguan Xiao himself would rather let his brother rest so that he didn't have to face the treacherous situation on the battlefield anymore. "I know. We can't retreat," Shangguan Xiao said calmly. "Adjust the formation for the next battle. We're still going for a protected battle."
"Yes, General!"
"How about the food supply?"
"Governor Feng from the city nearby had arranged for more supplies to be sent to the frontline."
Governor Feng?
Shangguan Xiao struggled to remember who it was before he remembered that one of General Feng's brother seemed to have become the governor in a small city not far from Wind City.
Even though his own power back then was rather lacking, but he was steadily growing with the support of the people in Wind City and the small city. If Shangguan Xiao was not wrong, this man was now in charge of two cities at the same time.
Of course, his official position was only in one city.
He forgot the name of the city, but it was indeed a bit closer to the frontline. And for a long time when General Feng was defending on this border, his brother kept on helping him by sending the necessary supplies. Now even without General Feng's presence, Governor Feng was still helping the soldiers on the frontline. "He's a good governor," Shangguan Xiao said and then nodded. "Send my regards to him."
"Yes, General Shangguan."
