720 Glorious Victory (2/2)
They were truly exhausted!
Wenren Chuchu was still sober, because she wasn’t a normal person. The others, including those generals, all fell down. They were also regular people. How could they not feel tired?
All those who had been fighting in this battle, no matter in which sides, had lose weight, becoming skinny in the process.
A few physicians were busy staying around Wenren Jianyin. They looked gloomy.
The general who had been guarding Sky Nerve City had been making arrangements for the wounded soldiers.
”Princess, what happened? We cut right through into the Kingdom of Chen not long ago. We were so close to take their capital down!” The general who guarded Sky Nerve City was Meng Chuanshi. He was a good general too. At the moment, he was lost in confusion.
”Million troops of ours, marching with songs and vigor. We were winning it. So close. We were so close to it. All we needed was one more push to break the Kingdom of Chen, to destroy our enemy. How come? How come we end up like this? All of sudden?”
General Meng felt that he was freaking out. He had to get the answer.
If it wasn’t Wenren Jianyin, but other people, maybe it was understandable.
But it was Wenren Jianyin!
The famous war god in the world!
They were not only defeated, but also in such a miserable way…
That was such a misery.
One million and two hundred thousand men of Wenren Jianyin, three hundred thousand men of Wenren Chuchu, that was one and a half million in total. However, less than three hundred thousand wounded soldiers survived. The others were all dead and lost!
The great loss of this fight had shocked the foundation of the entire Kingdom of Lan-Feng!
A strong army which was under Wenren Jianyin’s command actually got defeated so bad! Even… Ye Nantian couldn’t defeat Wenren Jianyin like this.
”It truly is an unreasonable fight.” Wenren Chuchu sighed. ”If there is any reason, the reason must be… heaven’s will!”
She bitterly smiled.
”Heaven’s will? How so?” Meng Chuanshi couldn’t understand it.
”It’s true. Heaven’s will.” Wenren Chuchu sighed. ”By then, we have already taken the positive position in all sides. We have been marching ahead like a sharp knife. All we needed to do was to break down the last barrier of the Kingdom of Chen. We were so close.”
”At that moment, the enemies got their support. They were so tough. Other than that, Ye Nantian’s army was already on their way too. Ten to fifteen days, that’s all it takes for them to arrive.”
She said, ”We didn’t have much time by then. That was why Commander decided to use fire attack, in order to end the war as soon as possible…”
She told Meng Chuanshi everything.
Meng Chuanshi was shocked. ”That should be a perfect plan! Right strategy, right place, right time! How could it fail? We should have won the battle no matter how!”
