Chapter 311: Real Battle

311 Real Battle

After a few more days advancing without any big hindrance, they finally encountered the opponent worthy of their famous name. Ye Jiu had stepped into the battlefield and faced Soujin on the outskirt near the capital.

"His timing is impeccable. Just a little bit more and we will arrive at the capital," Yan said in annoyed tone. He had hoped for them to finish conquering the capital first before meeting with Ye Jiu, but the other party had to appear at the crucial moments.

Soujin was in the middle of the battle with the soldiers from Pan Kingdom when Ye Jiu suddenly come. Seeing their great general, the soldiers from the Pan Kingdom cheered loudly and gain even more motivation to go forwards. The situation changed as the tide turned on Pan Kingdom favor.

Aside from their morale boost, Ye Jiu didn't come alone. He brought the reinforcement soldiers with him that consisted of his personal soldiers. As he was someone strong, the soldiers he brought were also really strong.

"The number is on Pan Kingdom advantages," Ming Hui frowned. Even their skill was on par with the soldiers from Soujin and Jun Hua. That prince was really something.

"He didn't gain his name for nothing," Yan said. He truly wished that he could do something for Soujin. However, with his puny martial art skill, there was no way he could affect the battlefield that much.

Ming Hui stole a glance at Jun Hua by the side. Jun Hua's eyes never left the battlefield. She looked really serious. Ming Hui wondered what would happen should she reveal her true identity and the two generals' fight on the frontline.

The soldiers from Ye Jiu's side slowly encircled Soujin's soldiers. Although their movement was not apparent, as someone highly familiar with the battlefield, Jun Hua immediately recognized it. She knew that once their movement was successful, Soujin would need to work harder and the damage to their soldiers would increase.

Jun Hua abruptly stood up, "It's not good. If this goes on, Soujin will lose."

The exclamation from Jun Hua startled both Yan and Ming Hui. Ye Jiu had just arrived in the capital for a short time, but he already grasped the tide of the battlefield. This was insane.

"What do you mean, Jun Hua?" Ming Hui calmed himself down.

Jun Hua pointed to the side, "Ye Jiu is trying to trap Soujin along with his soldiers there. If he succeeds, there is a probability that Soujin would lose most of his elites."

Ming Hui frowned. This situation was truly unfavorable for them. If Soujin were to lose his soldiers, the ability of their soldiers would decrease a lot. After all, those elites were the one who influenced the battlefield the most.

"Does Soujin realize it?" Ming Hui asked.

On the battlefield, Soujin was fighting with Ye Jiu head on. The two of them have similar skill and strength, making it difficult to guess who would win on their fight. Each of them was giving their best and exchanged strike one by one.

"Nope," Jun Hua was pretty sure that he didn't realize it. If not, he would not continue to fight with Ye Jiu in such clamor. Besides, he had deviated a bit from their original plan.

"What should we do now?" Yan panicked.

Jun Hua took a paper and wrote something on it before giving the paper to Yan whilst saying, "Give this to Yabei, he will understand what I write and you go down there to fight with Shu."

"Why are you the one giving me the order?" Yan wanted to protest, but the way Jun Hua looked at him deterred his determination. Her eyes were clear and looking straight at him, but he could feel the chill hidden beneath the seemingly calm eyes.

Without any delay, he took the paper and sprint from the headquarters to reach the squad. Before Soujin initiated the fight, the two of them arranged some part of Jun Hua soldiers that would not join the fray unless it was needed. This was the backup plan they have prepared.

Ming Hui stared at the battlefield, "Do you think he will realize that there is another plan being executed?"

"He will know. Yamin, give me my bow," Jun Hua calmly instructed. From the shadow, Yamin appeared and brought the bow and arrow to Jun Hua hand.

Ming Hui was startled by the appearance of Yamin. He was pretty sure that he and Yan both didn't detect that Yamin was close with them. Previously, he thought that Jun Hua was safe alone, but it turned out she had someone protecting from the dark.

Taking the bow and arrow, Jun Hua stood on the edge and aimed. The position of Soujin was pretty far, around 600 meters from her place, which was an impossible range for her. Placing three arrows on her bow, Jun Hua concentrated on the other enemy leaders.

In split second, the three arrows were let loose towards three different directions. Following the arrow was the sound of the Pan Kingdom soldiers yelling the name of their leader, making chaos in three places on the battlefield.

Ming Hui watched the arrow with astonishment. The first time he saw Jun Hua fired three arrows, the distance was not that far, only several meters. However, now the distance was more than three hundred meters and the location was different. If she were to compete at this distance, she would definitely win.

Taking another three arrows, Jun Hua continued her barrage of firing the arrow. After doing it several times, she noticed that the squad she instructed previously had joined the battlefield and crushing the Pan Kingdom formation.

With the arrow she fired already messing the movement of the Pan Kingdom soldiers, Yabei didn't have much trouble to finish the rest. Putting the bow down, she exhaled and took a seat.

A glance was enough to see that Jun Hua was tired after putting her concentration fully on the arrow. With this far distance and the possibility of them moving when she fired the arrow, it became really hard to fire the arrow accurately. Not to mention that she was outside, so there was wind she needed to calculate before firing the arrow.

Jun Hua silently apologized to her grandfather because she had once again used her martial arts to help with the war.

"Take a rest first, Jun Hua," Ming Hui checked her pulse and frowned. The pulse he detected showed him something surprising.

"I'm fine, Ming Hui," Jun Hua retracted her hand. She didn't want to make the others worry for her anymore.

"Jun Hua, do you suffer any wound from the battle?" Ming Hui asked. Although it was faint, that pulse was different from those who were healthy. There were traces of internal wounds that seemed serious. He needed a longer time to check deeper, but Jun Hua would not allow it.

"No, I don't," Jun Hua answered, "I only overtrain, which damages some of my internal organs. Don't worry, it's already almost healed completely."

From what he sensed, Jun Hua would not heal for at least several more weeks. Ming Hui finally remembered something. "Do you erase Jun Min identity because of your wound?"

"That's one of the reasons," Jun Hua answered, "The other is because my substitute physique started to differ from me. Besides, in the very first place, Jun Min only existed to help the Jun family fare in the Ming Kingdom."

"I see," Ming Hui was sure that it must be hard for her to suddenly erase her other identity just like that. With the condition of Jun Hua like this, he was not sure if it would be a good idea for her to reveal her real identity. If the soldiers or anyone else knew about her identity, she would be forced to fight on the frontline again. At the same time, if she fought in the frontline again, her condition would just deteriorate as she forced her recuperating body to their limit.

Shifting his gaze, he found that Soujin already retreated along with his soldiers while fending off Pan Kingdom attack. The first day clash between Ye Jiu and Soujin would come to end.
