Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 2659: The Tribes (3)

Time passed really quickly.

Nan Hua looked at the letters on her table thoughtfully and then said, “Do you think it’s possible for these tribes to cooperate together?”

The northern tribes were usually independent and would not cooperate together with each other. It was also because of this that even if it was difficult to face the northern tribe, it was not impossible for them to repel them so far.

Fan Yi Kingdom was able to survive for so long under so many onslaught from the northern tribe precisely because the northern tribes were scattered.

It was troublesome because they could attack from various direction.

But at the same time, they knew that these tribes were not cooperating together and all they had to do was to defeat them one by one. Their cooperation was nonexistent and there were even times when they have conflicts on Fan Yi Kingdom’s land.

But right now…

Nan Hua was thinking of the possibility of them cooperating together.

“Why do you think that way?”

“Because there are already three different assassination… it’s impossible for a tribe to spend so much assassinating people when their target is the winter attack.” Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and continued, “It looks to me as if they’re trying to reduce the people who fought on the battlefield, but how could they know where you will be assigned to?”

While Emperor Yang Zhou did send them to the north to take a look, but until the last moment, it would be impossible for them to know where their assignment is. After all, Long Qian Xing, Song Yun Xiang, and other soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom would only fight on the north border for the first time.

It didn’t matter where they were assigned to.

They still need to adapt from the very beginning.

But the assassination target from the very beginning was very clear, which was General Yang and Long Qian Xing.

This meant that they were sure that these two people were the main threat for them.

How could they be so confident?

“You’re right… I don’t know whether I’ll be assigned to help General Yang or General Gao.” Long Qian Xing nodded.

Because Emperor Yang Zhou only said that he would be assigned to the most appropriate place depending on the situation. He didn’t tell more and Long Qian Xing could guess that it was because the strategist were still thinking about it and arranging for the best formation.

They hadn’t finished yet.

And the soldiers were still busy training to adapt to the environment on the northern tribe.

“If you assume that they’re targeting every general who will fight on the north border…. The only possibility for them to do so is if they all cooperate together,” Nan Hua said slowly and then she put away the letters.

“Of course, this assumption might not be correct because the information we have obtained is limited. But this is the highest possibility that I can think of.”

And Nan Hua knew very well that she had relied on this ability to piece together the complete story from fragmented pieces of information to survive in the past. Because it was simply impossible to get the complete information most of the time.

She could only rely on what she had known to guess what her opponent wanted to do.

Only in this way would it be possible for her to arrange for what she wanted to do and made the countermeasure.

“Rather than cooperating, I though that the Kai Tribe are planning on launching a large scale attack in this winter.” Long Qian Xing sighed. “The Kai Tribe has a lot of warriors, but they hold back and didn’t attack last year, which meant that they might be planning something big this year.

Moreover, I think that the transmigrator who made the cannon should be in the Kai Tribe. Aside from this largest tribe, the other small tribes didn’t have the qualification to possess enough resources to make the cannon.”

“…Cannon?” Nan Hua asked slowly.

“Gu Xia Mo sent a letter about the cannon and it’s detailed information.” Long Qian Xing handed the letter in his hand to Nan Hua. “It has been kept a secret from others so far, but if needed, Gu Xia Mo had prepared better cannon for us to use.”

Nan Hua was silent.

If these weapons were to be taken out, it was estimated that the war situation would change completely. Because it would be impossible for these weapons not to cause massive destruction both to the people and the surroundings.

“It’s more than 1000 years too early,” Nan Hua muttered.

Metal works were not so easy to make and they couldn’t even process proper metals with their current technology. At least, it was only enough to make some small items and a big items like cannon was simply impossible.

“The current cannon is still very bad and the outside structure is made of wood,” Long Qian Xing replied. “And the content inside is not very firm either. It’ll break in a few uses.”

This was the consequences of using technology far above the current time.

The materials were not up to standard yet and it will be dangerous to use it. Unless they could also make the materials to make it, then it would be impossible to improve the cannon.

“But if used well, it can turn the battle around,” Nan Hua said slowly.

She knew very well that the difference in technology, if used well, could mean a lot in the battle.

“Yes.” Long Qian Xing sighed and put away the letters too.

He didn’t want to think too much about it.

When they went to the battlefield, he had to think about whether there were places that was suitable for these cannons arrangement. Because he definitely didn’t want to fall onto the traps, if there was any.

After all, he didn’t know much about the transmigrator who came to this world.
