Chapter 2284: Song Yun Xiang and General Ning (2)
Song Yun Xiang smiled at General Ning's response.
"You're not against this arrangement?" Song Yun Xiang asked.
General Ning shook her head. She smiled at Song Yun Xiang. "I'm still young and I want to live. Is it wrong for me to choose to change my side?"
There were some stubborn people who wanted to protect their own kingdom to the very end. For these kind of people, General Ning had to say that she was full of respect towards them. Because it was not easy to do so.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
But she had to apologize because it was impossible for her to do the same. Years of fighting on the battlefield had allowed her to see many deaths and all, realizing that lives were truly worthless in the face of interest.
General Ning was only in her late twenties.
She was still relatively young.
To be honest, if it was not for Jun Hua and Yu Jin being so famous, she would have been known by many people. After all, she became a female general in her mid twenties, which was by no means old.
But there were two more enchanting geniuses who covered up her light.
The live expectancy in this era was not that long but for those who were healthy, it was not impossible to live a long life. For General Ning, she was still young and wished to live longer in this world.
"No, it's not wrong," Song Yun Xiang replied.
Because he himself would do the same.
Some people might yell and shout at them for being traitors. But in the end, they knew very well that the chance for Fan Yi Kingdom to win was extremely slim. The loss in the past few months were really severe.
And with the north border with the northern tribe breached once, they were literally facing two fronts at the same time.
Rather than fighting a meaningless battle, Song Yun Xiang would rather surrender.
There were already so many people dying on the battlefield and continuing to struggle and fight would yield nothing.
The soldiers under Song Yun Xiang would listen to him and followed his lead. Even if there were some of them who would be indignant, Song Yun Xiang would not change his decision.
This was the best decision to keep most of the soldiers' live alive.
"Anything else you want to say, Song Yun Xiang?" General Ning asked as her eyes moved to Song Yun Xiang's wheelchair. Her lips twitched lightly. "Looking at your appearance, one would think you can't even walk."
Song Yun Xiang rolled his eyes. "I have already lost my hands, don't make me lose my legs too."
He was only using the wheelchair because it was comfortable and he was a bit lazy to move around. Besides, the soldiers were willing to push him here with the wheelchair, why should he complain?
It was not like he couldn't walk.
He was just too lazy.
"Pfft." General Ning chuckled. "You're still as lazy as ever."
Even when designing the battle plan, Song Yun Xiang would sit down if it was possible and not stand up. His legs were fine but there were times when people felt that his legs were not in a good condition since he didn't like to walk around.
"I don't want to be a spectacle." Song Yun Xiang shrugged his shoulder. If he were to walk around, people's attention would be directed at his hands. It was not that common to see people who have lost their arms and still walking around on the battlefield.
It could be said that everyone knew Song Yun Xiang's identity because of this uniqueness.
"Right." General Ning smiled and leaned on the wall beside the bed. She was still looking in Song Yun Xiang's direction. "Can I trouble you to tell my brother about my decision? I'm sure he'll understand."
"Your brother..." Song Yun Xiang felt a headache. "Are you sure you don't want to tell him yourself?"
"I think that it's better for me to stay in this room until all arrangement has been made." General Ning chuckled. "Try to get along more with my brother. You can't seem to get along well all the time."
Song Yun Xiang could only show a bitter smile.
How could he get along well with Commander Ning when the latter kept on thinking that he would steal his sister?
No matter how many times Song Yun Xiang said that they were partners on the battlefield and didn't have any relationship, Commander Ning didn't listen at all. This made Song Yun Xiang really helpless.
Then again, he couldn't really do anything towards Commander Ning.
"Alright, alright, I'll do that." Song Yun Xiang relented.
General Ning's smile was brighter when she heard this.
The two of them talked for a bit more before Song Yun Xiang was pushed out by the soldiers and sent to see Commander Ning and the other commanders. It was time for him to tell them about what his decision and whether they wanted to follow him.

<Nan Hua's side>
While Long Qian Xing was conversing with Song Yun Xiang and then left, Nan Hua was going back to the camp.
She looked around and finally spotted Feng Ao Si and Nan Luo, who were quarreling with each other as usual. It seemed that they were about to raise their sword and have a spar again.
In this war, the two of them were doing well and helped in various battles.
It was just that their contribution seemed lacking when compared to the famous generals who were standing at the frontline.
"Let me tell you, I'll definitely be promoted after this war is over." Feng Ao Si snorted as he looked at Nan Luo.
"No way, with your ability and your recklessness, you won't be promoted so quickly. I'm the one who will be promoted first!" Nan Luo refuted.
"I'm not that reckless anymore!"
"Let me ask Dai if that's true!"
Dai, who was standing at the side: "..." why am I getting involved in your quarrel?
