<h4>Chapter 338 Merit</h4>


    Stab!


    A knife had pierced the man''s chin from below.


    Upon seeing the enemymander was quick to react, Nan Hua decisively let her grip of the sword off and took out a knife from the side. She was an assassin, so of course she would always prepare some hidden weapons as long as it was possible.


    If not, she could always use any part of her body to be a weapon.


    Human''s chin was one of the weakest point on human''s body. Thus, during battle, it would bemon for enemies to protect their chin. But making use of her small body, Nan Hua slipped inside and used her other hand to stab the knife.


    "You…"


    Nan Hua yelled, "Now!"


    Dzing! Jleb!


    Unable to react in time, an arrow had pierced his head. Blood drizzled down from the wound before the enemymander number 1 fell on the ground with a loud thump.


    *pant* *pant*


    Feng Ao Kuai was holding his bow and arrow as he looked at the fallen enemymander. He looked at Nan Luo and upon confirming that Nan Luo was fine, he rushed over to themander and used his sword to chop his head.


    "What''s his name?" Feng Ao Kuai asked, partially yelling.


    Thunk!


    "Commander Bei Qi!" Commander Shou shouted from the side as he walked with bloodied figure. In his hand was the head of the othermander that he had killed. He looked at Feng Ao Kuai and nodded his head.


    "COMMANDER BEI Qi AND COMMANDER BEI QU HAD BEEN KILLED BY COMMANDER SHOU AND SOLDIER FENG AO KUAI!"


    Feng Ao Kuai was stunned but then he nodded. He looked at Nan Hua as the one who contributed to the killing the most was not him but rather her. However, Nan Hua waved her trembling hand.


    "The battle is not over yet." Commander Shou patted Feng Ao Kuai''s shoulder. He turned to the other soldiers. "Cover up for them!"


    "YES!"


    Nan Luo had managed to regain his sense as he stood up. He looked at the corpse of themander then looked at Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Hua. "Great job!"


    "You too. Without you, he wouldn''t be defeated in time." Feng Ao Kuai nodded at Nan Luo. He knew very well that Nan Hua was quite a distance away from them back then because the number of soldiers were overwhelming. Thus, it would only make sense that Nan Luo''s action bought them precious time.


    Nan Luo rubbed his nose and grinned. "It''s nothing."


    ng! ng!


    From the side, Xiao Yan was relieved that Nan Luo was fine. When Nan Luo suddenly rush over, he had failed to react in time because he was still surrounded by the soldiers. Thankfully, thatmander didn''t target Nan Luo or it would have been direr.


    With the two mainmanders died, their soldiers were quick to regain their superiority and pushed their enemy back.


    Soon, they managed to win the battle.


    General Feng and the others returnedter on with a dark face. It was clear that even though they didn''t sustain many losses, having their headquarter attacked like this would leave a bad taste in their mouth.


    "We''re moving."


    "Yes!"


    This ce might be quite save but the forest from the west made it hard for them to properly protect the area. If they were caught in another ambush, it wouldn''t be good.


    General Feng, Feng Qian Shao, looked at his son and nodded faintly. "You did good, Ao Kuai."


    "I wouldn''t be able to kill him without Luo and Nan." Feng Ao Kuai was honest. He didn''t like to take the credit that belonged to someone else. Moreover, he really didn''t do much and the one who did most of the fight was actually Nan and not him.


    "I know."


    "Then…"


    "Commander Bei Qi is a 500 menmander." Feng Qian Shao looked at his son because he was sure that his son would understand what he meant.


    Feng Ao Kuai was stunned and gritted his teeth. Naturally, he understood.


    Since he was the one who killed Commander Bei Qi at the end, it meant that the merit would go to him. And naturally, for an ordinary soldier, no he couldn''t even be called as an ordinary soldier because he was still in training, it was a huge merit.


    With this, it wouldn''t be hard for him to be given new position.


    It meant that he would be a soldier and even given a small rank such as a squad captain (A squad consisted of 5 people)


    Their promotion would actually start from the captain of a 5 people squad, then the captain of 10 people squad, then the captain of 50 people before reaching the 100 menmander, the rank that Feng Ao Si had.


    Though, honestly, Feng Ao Si skipped some of the low ranks because he was strong and brash. His leadership skill was still honing, though, which was why he didn''t get any other promotion and stuck as 100 menmander.


    Probably his father would let him stay in this rank for another year to let him learn how to properly learn how to lead his men.


    Now that Feng Ao Kuai had suddenly struck a merit like this, it was clear that Feng Ao Kuai wouldn''t be able to escape his fate of being a leader of a squad or even a 10 men squad.


    He could split the merit, but it would only mean that Nan Hua and Nan Luo would have their promotion too soon. They were indeed strong, but it was only because they were working together that they could defeat thatmander.


    In normal condition, could they do it by themselves?


    It was still too early for them.


    "I understand, Father."


    "Good, help cleaning up. I''ll arrange your positionter."


    "Yes."


    Nan Luo looked at Feng Ao Kuai worriedly. "Was it not a good thing to kill that person?"


    "How is it not a good thing?" Feng Ao Kuai chuckled. His eyes gleamed. "Starting from now, you''re going to be under me for the time being when you''re at the frontline, Luo."


    Hearing that, Nan Luo was speechless. Didn''t he need his agreement first?
