Chapter 1983  Shangguan Xiao’s Revenge

"Uoooo!"

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal clashing continued to rise from the soldiers. As more and more soldiers fell, the two generals from Shi Long Kingdom, General Ma and General Wu were facing a difficult decision. "Should we retreat?"

"Can you fight against this?"

They tried their best to fight, but no matter where they went, they would be faced with a new tactic from Shangguan Xiao. Their messy head was even more messy right now as they couldn't think straight and fight back. The battle was slowly turning towards Fei Yang Kingdom's favor. "We can't just give up!" General Ma raised his weapon and charged forward. General Wu watched this and then shook his head. "Stupid! It's better to retreat!"

From the very beginning, the two generals were not at good terms with each other. They were both raised temporarily as generals in this battle against Fei Yang Kingdom and faced Shangguan Xian. After Shangguan Xian retired promptly after his defeat to Heavenly General Sang, Shangguan Xiao took his place. And Shangguan Xiao was holding his grounds against Heavenly General Sang.

Even if the situation from Fei Yang Kingdom's side didn't look favorable at all, Shangguan Xiao was still trying his best to make sure that they could do everything well. Because this was basically the only possible way for them to survive. They couldn't lose any more grounds to Shi Long Kingdom.

Using his familiarity of the land, Shangguan Xiao protected the border quite well. Even if he had to sacrifice his men again and again, he tried his best to keep the losses as minimal as possible. Now, the chance has come. The moment Shangguan Xiao saw the soldiers from Shi Long Kingdom retreated, he set up the ambush point and chased after them with his own soldiers. The soldiers were specifically using the soldiers who used to follow his brother.

Because he knew very well that that these soldiers were still fuming in rage.

They had nowhere to vent their emotions because the battles kept on turning on Shi Long Kingdom's side under Heavenly General Sang's leadership.

Now, this was basically their chance.

"Uooooo!"

The soldiers at the front raised their weapon and then slashed towards the soldiers from Shi Long Kingdom energetically. Their eyes were red in anger and their bodies kept on moving forward again and again, forcing their way into Shi Long Kingdom's army formation. Kill! Kill! Kill!

They were all full of killing intent as they wished to kill everyone from Shi Long Kingdom without leaving a single soul.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Under their vigorous attacks, Shi Long Kingdom's army were not able to put up a proper fight. These soldiers were tired and planned to rest when they were caught by the ambush

Panics, worry, and many other emotions mixed together.

The end result was that not a single one of them was able to fight properly and the formation was slowly but surely crumbling. Even if the commanders tried their best to make sure that the end result was good, it was very far from the ideal state that they wanted. Clang! Clang! Clang!

The battle continued. The soldiers from Shi Long Kingdom were split into two. Half of them stayed with General Ma to fight against Shangguan Xiao while the other half tried to run away under the leadership of General Wu.

General Wu was only recently promoted after another temporary general who was promoted along with General Ma was injured and had to recuperate. He didn't want to die.

So he picked the option to run away when the chance was presented. "General Shangguan, General Wu lead his soldiers to the east path to break through from that side," the soldier who was in charge to watch over the movement from Shi Long Kingdom quickly informed. Shangguan Xiao was not like his older brother who would plunge headfirst into the battle and used his advantage in physical strength. After all, his physical strength was far from comparable from the other members in the Shangguan Family.

Thus, he stayed at the back and watched the scene in front of him. The two soldiers fought and his commanders were engaging with the two generals until General Wu chose to retreat. "In that case, you use that plan."

"Yes, General Shangguan!"

The soldiers sent the signal to the soldiers who were in the distance away. As General Wu paced his horse through the path, he felt a bit nervous. There were many soldiers behind him and even if General Ma were to lose, there would be still more than enough people to face Fei Yang Kingdom. He just had to make sure that they were willing to listen to him. Swish! Swish! Swish! Jleb!

As he was running, he heard sound of something breaking the air and when General Wu raised his head, he saw an arrow coming in his direction. "Do not…!"

Bang!

The arrow pierced straight to his forehead and General Wu was flung out of his horse as he fell down and then got trampled by his soldiers behind him. *neigh* *neigh*

"What?"

The soldiers raised their head and saw rain of arrows coming in their direction. They felt their heart turned cold as they yelled and tried their best to raise their shield.

"There's an ambush!"

"Ahhhh!"

Swish! Jleb! Jleb! Jleb! Jleb!

…

Shangguan Xiao listened to the report from the soldiers and watched the rest of the soldiers from Shi Long Kingdom retreated in orderly manner. Between the two generals from Shi Long Kingdom, General Ma was clearly more qualified. That General Wu was nothing more than a coward. More than a third quarter of the soldiers under General Wu died today because of the battle and the arrows. They were not able to fight back under Shangguan Xiao's rigorous arrangement and trap. Their situation was extremely miserable and those who survived were fleeing away from the battlefield. "We're retreating now," Shangguan Xiao gave his order. "Yes, General Shangguan!"
