Chapter 340 Light and Shadow
Hearing that, Nan Luo's eyes gleamed. "Please tell me more about it, Cousin Ao Kuai."
Feng Ao Kuai arched his eyebrows. "Haven't you learned about it when you're attending the academy or stay with Grandfather in the past?"
"It can't be compared with listening to you directly," Nan Luo said seriously.
"There are two types of leader and coincidentally, me and my brother belong to the different type." Feng Ao Kuai walked to the stash of firewood to start making fire. "There are leaders who will stand at the forefront and lead his soldier at the very front. However, there are also leaders who stay at the back and command the people through relaying messages."
Hearing that, Nan Luo nodded. He understood that Feng Ao Si was the type to stand at the very front and lead his own army. On the other hand, Feng Ao Kuai disliked to stand at the forefront because it made him unable to look at the entire battleground. For him, it was better to stay at the back and moved his soldiers like how he did at chess.
Feng Ao Kuai then turned to look at Nan Luo. "For the first type, normally the strategist will stay at the back if they're incapable to fight. At that time, if you can destroy the headquarter, you can crush their tactic and force them to give up.
For the second type, they'll be at the headquarter to relay the order and everything. Once you reach the headquarter, you'll be eliminating the commander directly."
Nan Luo could feel his heart boil when he heard what Feng Ao Kuai said. His fingers clenched into a fist as he longed to be able to stand at the battlefield on his own and lead his own soldier.
How good would it be if he could be the one in charge?
"Be patient." Feng Ao Kuai patted Nan Luo's shoulder. "For the time being, you're going to be in my small squad."
Nan Luo: "..."
"How long?"
"Until you can gain enough merit to be above me." Feng Ao Kuai then turned to look at Nan Hua, who was standing not far from them. His eyes deepened. "Shine brightly, Luo. That's the only way we can stand at the shadow."
"When you decide to make a turn in midday, do you realize that you have been nearly trapped?" Feng Ao Kuai looked at his older brother sternly.
Feng Ao Si's face turned awkward. Well, he didn't think much at that time because he was chasing after the enemy's commander. Since that person was located a bit at the side, he just followed....
"It still end well in the end."
"Your instinct again?"
"YES!"
Feng Ao Kuai looked at his older brother and snorted. There were various types of general and he knew that his idiotic older brother would never be able to become the intelligence type. What a joke.
The best that Feng Ao Si could be was for him to follow his guts and instinct.
It was not that bad... but he would require a proper strategist. Because while sometimes his instinct was correct, his soldiers wouldn't be able to follow his sudden decision just like that. They would require proper orders before able to follow him.
It was also precisely because of this reason that Feng Ao Kuai didn't want to be with his older brother's army. If he was with his older brother, he was absolutely sure that he would become a nanny as the entire job was placed on his shoulder.
"Young Commander Feng, Young Commander Long is looking for you."
"Ah?" Feng Ao Si was startled then rushed over to meet with Long Qian Xing. Technically, his position was lower than Young Commander Long, so he had no other choice but to comply.
As long as it didn't violate any war rule, it was fine for a commander to search for another commander that was at lower rank than him.
"Is Young Commander Long above Young Commander Feng?" Nan Luo asked curiously.
Feng Ao Kuai nodded.
Nan Luo was speechless. In his mind, he was determined to reach Long Qian Xing's rank when he was 14 years old.
