Chapter 1697 Dawn on Day 3
Indifferent.
That was what other people could see from Song Yun Xiang as he entered his tent to rest. Because he had regular schedule, no one found his behavior strange and instead take it for granted that from the very beginning, he should have been that way.
"Indifferent?" Song Yun Xiang muttered. He lowered his head as his eyes turned slightly red. "How can I be indifferent?"
He was taught not to show his emotions on the surface and showed his weakness to other people. Instead, he would show a personality that was set from the very beginning for other people to see.
What he actually felt inside should never be known to others.
He's not calm.
When he saw the plan that Great General Ji had made, he knew that his Master was ready to die on the battlefield and even made a lot of preparations for that. The adjutants knew about this matter and they were informed about the follow up on how they should deal with this matter.
For these generals and commanders, it was a great honor for them to die on the battlefield. Rather than dying because of the order from the Emperor due to some cold misunderstanding, they felt it would be better for them to die for their own kingdom.
Song Yun Xiang had known about this.
Gao Xing Huan might not know because Great General Ji didn't want to inform this soft and emotional disciple of his.
But Song Yun Xiang was sharper and noticed it.
He couldn't stop his Master.
What he could do was to completed the arrangement and follow up that his master had arranged. That way, what his Master did would not be pointless.
Song Yun Xiang took a deep breath and walked to his bed.
…
<Long Qian Xing's location, Fei Yang Kingdom's side>
The night was quiet.
But Long Qian Xing woke up far earlier than others, busy in his tent to arrange the tactics for the next battle.
Knowing Song Yun Xiang, he didn't believe that the other party will give up easily.
"There are too many possibilities."
Long Qian Xing tossed the brush in his hand to the side, feeling tired from thinking so much. People said that he was very scheming, but only he knew that in terms of scheming there was someone who was even better than him.
And this person was right in front of them.
He turned his head to look at the incense stick on the side. He had put it off and now, the stick was less than half left. That sleeping incense should have been able to help him sleep, but right now, he really didn't feel any desire to sleep again.
"General Xing, General Jun is here."
"Let her in."
The tent door was pushed aside and Nan Hua walked into the tent. She saw that Long Qian Xing was staring intently at the parchment in front of him and blinked her eyes. His temperament had been back to normal. It seemed that he was able to adjust well after last night's event. "Young Master Long, are you thinking of the next tactic?"
"Yes," Long Qian Xing admitted frankly. There was nothing to hide from this matter.
Nan Hua swept her eyes to the map in front of Long Qian Xing and then at the messy drawing he made. It seemed that Long Qian Xing was thinking of the various possibilities that Song Yun Xiang could make.
Considering that person's ability, it was not strange for him to create several tactics and arrange them to be implemented seamlessly.
That was why Long Qian Xing was truly troubled right now.
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. When she came to the frontline back then, she had just recalled that in the plot, Long Qian Xing was helped by Luo Qing Wei because Great General Ji used poison tactic. This was why she could respond quickly and rushed to Fang Sheng Lin.
In fact, she had been troubled because her ability to remember the plot had decreased sharply. It was as if there was something that stopped her from being able to remember everything until it was time.
The last time she read that story, it was nearly a decade ago. There were already many details that Nan Hua could no longer remember.
"Do you want to be able to win decisively?" Nan Hua asked, her voice was low.
Once she used her ability, she would be able to see what Song Yun Xiang would do tomorrow. But at the same time, the differences in their arrangement would cause the future to change and she had to use her ability again and again.
Knowing the price that she had pay to use it, Nan Hua had no intention to use her ability recklessly.
"I'll be fine." Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua, somewhat feeling that she had something she was hiding from him. There was a faint sense of unease and foreboding when she asked that question.
Why?
He didn't know.
It was just his instinct was telling him not to agree with Nan Hua's suggestion.
"Okay," Nan Hua responded unhurriedly.
Long Qian Xing took his brush and played with his finger, twirling it with familiarity. "Are you going to fight separately or stay under me?"
"Adjutant Jiang will be the one to lead the army." Nan Hua was calm.
The soldiers under her were the soldiers who formerly followed General Cao and General Chi. Adjutant Jiang was someone who used to follow General Cao, but his performance was good and he was loyal to Fei Yang Kingdom.
Nan Hua had arranged for him to be the one to lead the soldiers in today's battle.
Long Qian Xing took some time before he remembered this middle aged man who was also Nan Hua's adjutant. He laughed lightly. "Are you planning to follow me, Hua'er?"
Nan Hua raised her head and saw the teasing smile Long Qian Xing showed to her. There was a faint light in her eyes as she replied frankly, "I'm just copying their tactic, so I'll follow you, Brother Long."
