Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 537

Chapter 537 The High Pass

The High Pass of Fei Yang Kingdom

While Nan Hua was rushing over, Old Master Nan was already at the High Pass, looking over the situation with grim expression. He could faintly recall the words that some of the commanders who used to follow his old friend said.

It felt as if they were waiting for their death when the large number of soldiers came.

It was exactly what Old Master Nan was worrying. The smoke coming from Wind City was getting clearer and clearer.

"Report, Great General Shangguan had arrived in Heng Feng City."

Old Master Nan nodded. Heng Feng City was located across the river, at the other side of his current location. He knew that if he wanted to pay a visit there, he would have to cross the rivers.

"Tell him to stay over there." Old Master Nan recalled that there was shallow river area at the northern area. It was probable that those from Shi Long Kingdom split their soldiers or even those from other kingdom to cross the river.

He felt a bit vexed about this.

Knock! Knock!

"Come in."

"Great General Nan, General Wei and General Long are waiting for your instruction." On the door, General Feng had arrived. General Feng, Feng Qian Shao, was Old Master Nan's son in law and also Feng Ao Si and Feng Ao Kuai's father. He was also the fastest one to order the retreat to High Pass after stalling for some time in some areas.

Old Master Nan glanced and nodded.

There were only a total of 8 generals in total in Fei Yang Kingdom, including two great generals. It was not like they only wanted to have few people, but many people of their generation couldn't stand the weight of this title and the younger generations who had potential were still growing up. It would take some time before they were ready to wield the title general.

'Old Man Shangguan and his son should be beyond the river. They're usually tasked to guard the south and the border with Shi Long Kingdom, so it's better to leave them in that place. I'm sure Old Man Shangguan will also agree.'

Crossing the river from this side was a bit difficult because there was a mountain covering them up. If they wanted to, they had to cross the river through the plains north of the mountain, but it would mean that they had to have the advantage in the overall situation of the battle.

Clack! Clack!

Old Master Nan pushed the door open and saw two middle aged men sitting inside. The two of them raised their head almost at the same time then stood up to give salute to Old Master Nan. After all, Old Master Nan was still at a rank higher than them.
