297 Surrounded

"If you want to show off, you don\'t have to be here," Yan said to Ming Hui with an annoyed tone.

Ming Hui ignored the grumbling Yan. Who told him to peek at them when he was talking with Fan Lanying? He turned to Soujin who was busy with the map in front of him, "Have you think about the new strategy?"

"You don\'t have to worry. I will get everything ready," Soujin answered calmly.

Yan and Ming Hui nodded, they would just leave the matter to Soujin. For the next few days, the battles in the border continued without any winner. The battle was no longer to conquer the city as Soujin forced the Ming Kingdom to have the battle in the plain.

On the back, Strategist Wu watched the condition of the battlefield calmly. Although Soujin was a renowned young general, he didn\'t feel any fear. He was once a famous strategist in his era, but that era has long passed.

"Rei, you passed the order."

"Yes Master," Rei smiled as he quickly disappeared from his spot.

Strategist Wu looked towards the battle in front of him. So, the famous young general of Ming Kingdom was just like this? It seemed your decision to change your allegiance was terribly wrong. He would show the young general just how much their difference was.

Soujin continued to fight on the frontline, his brow creased as he watched the new formation Ming Kingdom deployed. It seemed that Strategist Wu could read his movement better than he thought. It didn\'t matter, though; he just needed to stall the time as long as possible.

"Lou, how is the condition of the formation?"

"Young Master, the formation is broken on the left," Lou replied respectfully.

Soujin shifted his gaze to the left. The situation was not that bad, but Strategist Wu had made a loophole out of the formation he deployed.

"Let\'s move again," lifting his sword, Soujin made his way towards the enemy line.

Strategist Wu has to admit that the martial art of Soujin was truly one of the kinds. Seeing how the advance of the young man couldn\'t be stopped, it reminded him of the word monster. Really, those kinds of monster appeared in the same kingdom, but the emperor never deployed them well.

Three of them appeared at nearly the same time, but one of them raised his sword back to the emperor. The other one died in an accident. And the last one was uncontrollable, which made him died on the way.

Truly unfortunate, even if Ming Kingdom survived this ordeal, it was uncertain how the future would be. Strategist Wu looked at the man before him. If only the emperor was not that stuck-up on wanting the complete control and do things moderately, this might never happen.

"Stop the general advance," Strategist Wu ordered. Spilled milk couldn\'t be retrieved back, there was no use lamenting about this anymore. It was better to continue the advance and finished the matter on hand first.

Yan and Ming Hui didn\'t participate in the fight. The two of them waited on the wall and watched the progress of the battle.

"Yan, the situation didn\'t look so good," Ming Hui said as the battle continued.

Yan looked towards Ming Hui, "You always said the same thing for the past few days? Didn\'t the two sides are more or less equal?"

In Yan\'s minds, no matter how great Strategist Wu was, he could never outdo Soujin. The best he could do would only on par with Soujin. That just showed how much he trusted Soujin capability was.

Ming Hui stared at Yan with a blank look. He didn\'t know whether there was a hole in Yan\'s brain or this guy was genuinely that idiot? He truly wondered how Yan could make a strategy that well when they were playing chess if his mind was like this.

"Look at over there," Ming Hui pointed, "The soldiers on Soujin side is getting pushed back. Although there is no guarantee that they would lose, if this continued on, Soujin would be surrounded."

"Is it that bad?" Yan didn\'t understand the war that well.

"Just like when you\'re cornered at chess. You\'ve limited ways to get out and the chance to release yourself from being surrounded is rare," Ming Hui gave a simplified explanation.

Yan face paled. "That would be really bad! Soujin needed to get out from there soon. Let me go down there and fight too!"

Ming Hui shook his head, "if your fighting prowess is equal to Soujin, I would be relieved that you come to help him. However, with your measly strength, how do you expect to help him?"

Yan stopped in his tracks. He wanted to cry. Why would Ming Hui words have to be so hurtful? Couldn\'t he choose a better word to tell him that his power was not enough to help Soujin? Feeling down, he returned back to his seat.

Normally, Ming Hui would feel amused by Yan antics, but this time the situation was dire. If Soujin were to lose, the morale of the soldiers would be affected and they might lose the later battle. Not to mention, if Soujin were to get wounded, the morale of the soldiers here would decrease by a lot.

It could be the opposite, but the fighting power of Soujin was certainly needed for them to win. The option to let the general got hurt was not in their dictionary.

Ming Hui watched Soujin from afar before he frowned and pulled Yan to his side.

"What is it? Don\'t pull me around," Yan protested.

"Look at Soujin, can you see his expression?" Ming Hui asked.

"Are you crazy? Do you think that I have that kind of godly eyes to see his expression from this far?" despite protesting, Yan still looked towards Soujin. Due to his martial arts, he has better eyesight than normal people and with one glance; he could tell that Soujin was really calm and composed.

"What do you see?" Ming Hui was getting impatient. Due to his lower martial art, he couldn\'t see clearly, but he got the feeling that Soujin was exceedingly calm.

"He\'s smiling," Yan said in disbelief tone.

Ming Hui frowned. He looked around, no matter which side he saw, he only knew that Soujin soldiers were surrounded and his condition was not good. If this kept going on, the battle would be their loss. If that was so, why was he smiling?

Soujin was indeed smiling. He looked towards his servant. "Lou, it\'s time."
