Chapter 1143: DecisionThe first day of the battle had ended.


    ''Am I already so old?''


    General Duan thought of his sons and shook his head. His sons were much older than Long Qian Xing, but their achievements couldn''t bepared to this young man at all.


    People were indeed different.


    Bang!


    "Father, why did you not continue the battle until the night? If we continue, we might be able to finish them off!" Young Commander Duan barged in, not understanding why his father would stop the battle as the gong sounded.


    The two armies both retreated as if they had a tacit agreement that the battle will only ur during the days.


    "The night battle will only cause us to be at disadvantage." General Duan looked at his son. "Don''t you already notice it too?"


    Young Commander Duan''s face flushed. "But it''s still…"


    "Shang Yi, you''re amander. The lives of these soldiers under you are in your hand. When you make your decision, you had to know that each and every single one of your decision will inevitably affect their lives." General Duan looked at his first son and sighed.


    "You''re almost 30, but you can''t even understand that your soldiers'' lives arepletely dependent on your decision. When will you learn to think that every single one of your decision will affect the bigger picture?"


    Young Commander Duan, Duan Shang Yi, looked at his father and opened his mouth, yet no words came out. He actually wanted to say that he could do this and that everything will be fine.


    But looking at his father''s expression, he couldn''t bring himself to say it.


    The only reason why he was never promoted and stuck at the position of 4,000 menmander was because his father told him that he was not good enough.


    He was a bit vexed.


    A lot of talented youngmanders had emerged from other kingdoms, but his father always shackled him.


    "Damn it!" Duan Shang Yi turned around and dashed over.


    General Duan looked at his first son''s back and shook his head. Among his children, only Duan Shang Yi entered military and had been cultivated by him to be his sessor. However, Duan Shang Yi never truly inherited his capability.


    That man was too impulsive.


    He''s already so old, but he still acted like that.


    General Duan was also tired.


    The battles at the other walls were also very devastating with thousands of soldiers dying. Many of them were hit by the rocks. Some of the rocks even flew into the city and hit the road.


    This caused the citizen to be afraid and had to be moved further away from the wall.


    Young Commander Duan and Young Commander Kui couldn''t do anything.


    Fight?


    How could they fight if the opponents were located so far away?


    Kill them?


    How were they supposed to even kill them if they couldn''t evene in contact directly?


    The battle was so vexing.


    And General Duan knew that Duan Shang Yi was actually hoping that the opponent would stop when they run out of ammunition.


    It was just…


    How long will it take?


    There was a river nearby and General Duan knew very well that there were a lot of rocks in that shallow river. Fei Yang Kingdom''s soldiers only needed to form a line of soldiers towards the river and fetch the rocks to deal with them.


    Wei Da Kingdom is a kingdom of rivers.


    They had always been proud of this and also their ability to fight on the water.


    But facing Fei Yang Kingdom, everything seemed to have turned into a joke. Their water advantage was instead being used by them to deal with their soldiers through such method that was very beneficial for them.


    General Duan sighed.


    If Shi Long Kingdom were to use the same method, they knew that Wei Da Kingdom would also be extremely pressured.


    ''Is this the end of Wei Da Kingdom?''


    …


    Nan Luo and the others were setting up camp. He thought that Long Qian Xing would order them to fight even at night, but it seemed that he had no such intention and allowed them to rest instead.


    He would notin, though.


    "How are we going to fight the battle tomorrow?" Nan Luo asked curiously.


    "Probably the same as today. There are still a lot of rocks and we can even make more of these catapults to take over the cities." Feng Ao Kuai pointed at the row of catapults that Nan Hua had made.


    Nan Luo nodded. "It''ll be a hassle to bring those back, though."


    "It can be left behind at Da Yi City and used as defense measure against Zhang Xu Kingdom."


    "…You''re right."


    If they had to bring these heavy catapults back to the Three Point Cities, it would be very tiring. Rather than that, these catapults could be left behind in Da Yi City to use during defense.


    Besides, they could also take it out in the future during war against Zhang Xu Kingdom if it was needed.


    Though, Nan Hua estimated that bringing the ammunition alone would be quite tiring. This was one of the few reasons why these catapults were not exactly that popr even though it was very useful.


    If they were ambushed midway…


    They would have no other choice but to leave these catapults behind.


    Nan Hua suddenly raised her head and looked in the direction of Da Yi City. She could faintly hear some strange noises and her instinct as an assassin was telling her that this was the chance that they needed.


    "Luo, prepare for battle."


    "Eh? Ok." Nan Luo was stunned, but he reacted the next moment as he picked up his sword and motioned for his soldiers to prepare themselves.


    Nan Hua would never joke around about this.


    There might be enemies around.


    "Defenders, go to the front and prepare your shield!" Feng Ao Kuai gave his order and also picked up his bow and arrow. He couldn''t see any enemies, but he was sure that there were some people around.
