Chapter 2301: Result
<North border of Fei Yang Kingdom and Fan Yi Kingdom, Long Qian Xing's side>
Clang!
The battle was fierce.
But the ending was quite lackluster.
Long Qian Xing won without much difficulty after exchanging some moves with General Yang. The two of them fought with all of their strength, but General Yang was no longer that young.
He was not as strong as he used to be.
Bang!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Using the gap between the movements, Long Qian Xing knocked General Yang of the horse. After that, he stopped attacking.
They have an agreement.
General Yang stood up and dusted his clothes. He smiled. "You're strong, General Xing."
"Thank you for your compliment. You're not bad either, General Yang," Long Qian Xing replied calmly.
"It's time." General Yang nodded.
Under the arrangement of General Yang and Long Qian Xing, the two armies didn't attack each other and camped in different places. The soldiers who listened to General Yang's decision had complex emotions.
Some of them were unwilling but some others were relieved.
Because this meant that they didn't have to fight to their death against Fei Yang Kingdom.
It could be said that under this arrangement, the two armies were able to remain peaceful and reached an agreement.
"Thank you for agreeing to our proposal, General Xing," Prime Minister Yang said after they met with each other.
Long Qian Xing nodded. "If this can reduce the casualties, it's the right decision to make." Prime Minister Yang smiled.
Not all generals would be willing to be like Long Qian Xing, giving up the merit in front of him for the sake of the soldiers. After all, to rise to become a general, a lot of merits and achievements were needed.
If Long Qian Xing were to know what Prime Minister Yang was thinking, he would definitely reply that the path to become a general was indeed bloody, but it doesn't mean he had to become a person who only knew killing.
And the achievement of conquering a general was more valuable for Fei Yang Kingdom.
The had lost a lot of manpower in the war and so on.
If they could win the war without the need to use their swords and only need their mouth, why not?
"The agreement is made, General Xing." Prime Minister Yang showed the agreement that he had made. "This should be enough."
Long Qian Xing looked at the agreement and nodded. "Would you continue to protect the border?"
"This is my duty and mission," General Yang replied. He was also in the meeting room since he was the main leader formally. Though, his brother would also help him a lot.
As for protecting the border?
This was something their family had done over the years and passed down from one generation to another. Even if they didn't know for sure when the tradition actually started, but they knew that this was their duty.
Of course, this doesn't mean all of their future generations would continue to guard this place. There would be some of them who picked other path for their lives but one of them had to continue on this path.
This was their family's tradition.
"Then I would like to thank you," Long Qian Xing said seriously.
He knew very well that even if the family had the tradition and so on, it was difficult to continue for such a long time.
"I'm not along." General Yang chuckled and pointed towards General Gao, who was also inside but have no interest to talk. "From what I know, his family has been on the border even longer than us."
Long Qian Xing nodded.
The conflict with the northern tribe had existed for centuries due to the seasons and terrains. However, they were all unwilling to give up their lands, which was why the conflicts continued.
And there were people who were sent to protect the border.
From time to time, there would be a new general assigned here, but only two families have protected the border from generation to generation.
General Gao's Family and General Yang's Family.
"I wouldn't stay here for a long time," Long Qian Xing said, "I'm sure you understand the reason, General Yang."
General Yang nodded. "You still have to go and fight the rest of Fan Yi Kingdom's soldiers. I know and I'll not stop you."
Since they have reached an agreement, they would not stop Long Qian Xing in conquering Fan
Yi Kingdom.
If they dared to do it, they would end up having another battle.
And these generals didn't want that.
"General Xing, may I make a request?" General Gao asked carefully. He has been silent during their conversation, but he couldn't help but to speak up this time.
"Yes?"
"If it possible, could you let some members of the Imperial Family live?" General Gao asked
carefully.
"It'll depend on what Emperor Yang Zhou wanted," Long Qian Xing replied.
The fate of the Imperial Family would be decided by Emperor Yang Zhou. Unless they attacked and they couldn't restrain them without killing, whether these Imperial Family members from Fan Yi Kingdom stayed alive or death was not up to Long Qian Xing.
"Oh.." General Gao nodded and didn't say anything more.
Long Qian Xing looked at General Gao with confusion and turned to look at the other two
generals.
Prime Minister Yang smiled. "This is not a secret, but the Gao Family had blood relationship with the Imperial Family several generations ago. It's their family's teaching not to go against the Imperial Family."
As for how many generation exactly, Prime Minister Yang was not very clear. After all, he was not so idle that he would record the name of generation after generation for other people's
family.
But this matter was not exactly a secret for the nobles in Fan Yi Kingdom that have lasted for a
long time.
They all knew that the Gao Family had some relationship with the Imperial Family.
It was even said that if the entire Imperial Family were killed, they could even pick someone from the Gao Family due to the blood relationship.
