Chapter 899: Crossing the RiverSplash! Splash! Splash!
Leading the soldiers, General Chi was staying at the very forefront. He carried a large shield along with a sword while his eyes were staring forward.
Last night, Old Master Nan had told him about the plan.
He had to admit that when he first heard it, he thought that Old Master Nan was crazy to ask him crossing the river from this area.
"I need you to cross the river first."
"Cross the river?" General Chi had asked in bewildered expression. They were far away from the shallow and narrow area where it was more likeable for them to cross. How could it be possible for them to cross the river in this place?
"Yes, this place might be a bit wide, but the river is pretty shallow. The depth is at most at your chest." Old Master Nan pointed at the river. "With the bend and battle at the north area ongoing, the water current shouldn't be that high, so it's possible for you to cross the river."
General Chi was silent for a moment. He did think that this was a good chance for him to prove his capabilities by crossing the river first. But at the same time, he was worried that there would be something wrong during the crossing that would cause him to lose his soldiers.
It was not a joke to cross the river at such high current.
However, he also knew that Old Master Nan was not the type of person who would joke around about human's lives.
At the very least, compared to some others who used to dominate the battlefield, Old Master Nan was considered to be quite humane. He didn't like to cause casualties more than necessary.
"Alright, I'll do it."
"Good. Chi Song Lian will also follow you after you had crossed the river along with several other commanders. You need to be able to gain foothold in that area because we're going to charge and conquer the nearest city."
General Chi nodded.

And at the present, General Chi was only halfway cross the river with his soldiers when he saw the group of Wei Da Kingdom's soldiers at the other banks. The enemy had noticed their movement before they had arrived.
"Prepare your shield!"
"YES!"
General Chi was holding the shield at the very front as his eyes were staring at the group of Wei Da Kingdom's soldiers in front of him.
His stance looked as if he was saying, come forward if you dare.
Splash!
"UOooooooooooooo!"
The soldiers behind General Chi was not slow as they also charged forward the moment they realized that the water reached either their thighs or their knee. Some of them could charge fast while the others could only charge slowly.
Bang!
The two soldiers crashed against each other.
The archers could no longer shoot properly as they targeted those at the back in order to avoid hitting their own comrade. Even though they were all nervous, they tried to stay calm and continued their duty.
Unfortunately, Fei Yang Kingdom was sometimes called barbarians not for nothing.
Bang!
General Chi directly caused several soldiers to be flung away. His strength alone was far lesser compared to a few other generals, but it was still considered quite a lot. After staying in Fei Yang Kingdom, he had adapted to their culture and trained his strength like crazy.
If he didn't the other generals could crush him easily.
"Retreat!!"
"General Chi is here!"
"Ret...GAH!"
Slash! Slash! Slash!
General Chi started to continue attacking and turned to look into the distance. He knew that River General Kui must be watching from somewhere, but he was not afraid in the slightest bit.
Even if River General Kui was watching, he would make sure that he could destroy the other party. River General Kui was just an old general who used to be famous at the battlefield.
His glorious time would soon be over.
He snorted and waved his hand. "Let's go and kill them all!"
"UOOOOOOOOOOO!"
