Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound of metal clashing continued on the battlefield. It was such a situation where everyone had to fight or they will die.
The few manders under General Kai were already quite desperate. They all knew that no matter what happened, they might not be able to end up well in this battle. After all, Fan Yi Kingdom was determined to kill them all and pushed the border back.
A few years' prior, Fan Yi Kingdom had lost their territory to Long Qian Xing during the war that they started. Ever since then, they hadn't been able to push them back and General Kai was able to guard the border safely.
Spring had just passed and Fan Yi Kingdom had recovered from their losses after their battle against the tribes at the north.
Now, many manders and soldiers were moved to the south.
And war had turned fierce.
"mander Kui! We'll be pushed back!"
mander Kui, used to be called Young mander Kui, was the only descendant of River General Kui who was still alive. After his grandfather's death, he stayed low and didn't dare to make many noises.
His reputation was not very good but he managed to stay alive when he promised to be loyal to Fei Yang Kingdom. After that, he was given position as manders and allowed to lead his soldiers who used to follow him. Their number had decreased due to the casualties during the war between Wei Da Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom several years ago.
But it was definitely better than nothing.
At the very least, he was allowed to fight again on the battlefield and sent to the north where he would fight together with General Kai.
He didn't know General Kai that well, but because they were both came from the already gone Wei Da Kingdom, it seemed that they were able to work together so far. It was just that this battle put them in overwhelming disadvantage.
"Continue to retreat and follow along with the other soldiers." mander Kui's expression was not very good. "Try not to engage too long with the enemies and follow me back."
"Yes!"
They would have no other choice but to abandon the city they had been staying for some time. But at this point of time, both he and General Kai had the same thought.
That was to retreat and protect their lives.
"Have you called for reinforcement?"
"Yes, mander Kui, there's already a call for reinforcement. They should arrive soon."
Soon?
How soon would that be?
mander Kui's expression was cold as he continued to direct the soldiers to retreat. Hopefully, they would be able to escape to safety tonight and rested well for tomorrow's battle.
If not…
It wouldn't be very pretty tomorrow.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Not only mander Kui, the few other manders were also directing their soldiers to retreat. They could see that they were at disadvantage and wanted to go back towards the plains some distance away for a better battle terrain.
In this forest and also within the territory that previously belonged to Fan Yi Kingdom, they couldn't gain much advantage right now.
It was chaotic.
Without an absolute leader to control the situation, the soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom's side was being pressed.
