83 First Battle (1/2)

The losses on Mountain Kingdom side are really big. They have lost some of the capable officers during the battle with most of them are because of one person. General Hen is looking towards the report with disbelief. He cannot believe that only a single day and they had lost thousands of soldiers with a few capable officers.

”Just what kind of monster is this Jun Min?” he looks towards General Tou who has a complicated face plastered on his not so young face anymore.

”He's a youngster,” General Tou laughed a bit. ”I think still in his teens. If you meet him, you won't believe that he's a general.”

”Why?” General Hen asks confused.

”The kid is only half of your height and his built is slender. If not for seeing him slaying the commander, I wouldn't have believed it too,” General Tou answered.

Hearing from the great general mouth, the other officers have their face ashen. How could they supposedly believe that a kid can possibly beat them? This is not fairy tale. This is battlefield.

”Even if you don't believe me, you will see him tomorrow. I will duel with him and fight to my heart's content.”

Hearing the general words, they feel even more conflicted. General Tou is a general from a long time ago. Many people have heard about his greatness and all. He's basically an old person who's still active on the battlefield and fight out with whoever he wants. Most of the youngsters are not his opponent and he would simply beat them up without care.

If he said that there is someone who could match him, most of them are already adult or even old like him. A youth possessing power and ability to match him is simply unbelievable. The general are all feeling conflicted towards the general decision, but it's not their places to speak so all they could do is follow.

General Tou looks towards the wall and smiled slightly. That youth is highly interesting. Despite being only in his youth, he possessed the ability to turn the table around and battle efficiently, totally unlike a normal youth.

He's eager to have the battle with him.

…

”You said you made a promise with General Tou to battle with him?” Jun Qing feels that his niece is nothing but a trouble.

”Yes.”

”Do you know how powerful General Tou is? How many people do you think have died in his hand? He's a war veteran, unlike a greenhorn general like you!”
