Chapter 1869  The Treacherous General

He was not the only one.

Many other soldiers under his commands were looking to the front, their eyes were filled with anger and despairs. Because they knew very well that the fate of these women and children depended on their decision.

They\'re not just ordinary women and children.

Many of the soldiers yelled their names…

Because these were all their family members.

"How come they\'re here?" Shangguan Xiao\'s blood turned cold when he saw the scene in front of him. The soldiers who were preparing for battles were now frozen in place and some even wanted to break through the formation.

They couldn\'t bear to see the scene of their loved ones being killed in front of them.

How many women and children were at the front?

There are hundreds of them!

It simply made them feel desperate.

Shangguan Xiao was most confused as to how Shi Long Kingdom were able to transport these people here in such a short period of time. Not to mention, these women and children should have been located far away from the frontline.

They should have been in the safe place.

Why?

Why are they here?

"Commander Shangguan…" General Hong\'s expression was also not very good. Even though none of his and his soldiers\' family members were captured by Shi Long Kingdom, but this kind of method simply made their blood turned cold.

They were busy fighting at the frontline and their family members should have been protected on the back.

Because many of them become soldiers in order to give their family members a better place to live.

But in this situation…

What they wanted to protect was being used to threaten them.

How could they not feel angry?

How could they not feel despair?

Because they knew that it was impossible for them to go straight to the wall and save their family members. "What do you want?" General Shangguan, Shangguan Xian, yelled loudly.

His blood turned cold when he saw the people who were on top of the wall. He knew very well that the slightest bit of mistake could easily change the fate of these people in front of him.

He couldn\'t bear it.

"I thought that you\'re a cold hearted general, but it seems that you\'re not that cold hearted." Heavenly General Bao looked at Shangguan Xian and smiled. Their distance was not that far away, so by yelling, they would be able to hear each other. "Don\'t you think the situation is familiar?"

Familiar?

Shangguan Xian\'s eyes turned cold.

Back during the time when Fei Yang Kingdom fought against Zhang Xu Kingdom, Shi Long Kingdom made some troubles. At that time, they were forced to retreat and in the city that was taken by Shi Long Kingdom, his new adjutant\'s mother was unable to retreat in time. They caught her and used her to threaten the entire army.

Even though Shangguan Xian tried to negotiate with them, the end result was still the adjutant\'s mother\'s death. They couldn\'t do anything but to continue the war and used their anger to kill countless soldiers from Shi Long Kingdom. But…

It could never recover the dead.

The mood in the army was extremely low at that time. Even though they all wanted to keep their families safe, they also knew that there were situations when their family members would be used against them instead.

When one was in power, the one who would suffer was not always themselves but instead their family members.

It was the tragedy.

"What do you want me to do to release them?" Shangguan Xian asked, his tone was slow.

"What if I want you to retreat?" Heavenly General Bao asked, his tone was playful and full of mockery.

In the battle back then, Shangguan Xian was always full of power, challenging them bravely. But now that his family members were in his hand, this courageous general was no longer so brave.

"We will," Shangguan Xian replied firmly.

The soldiers around him were shocked. Their voices varied.

"No, General, don\'t do this."

"Please General."

"That\'s…"

If they were to retreat, they will lose and become the sinner of their kingdom. Because the reason of their loss was not because they couldn\'t fight, but because they didn\'t want to fight.

But even if he had to bear that heavy names, Shangguan Xian\'s eyes were firm. "I can\'t let these people die, so if you want us to retreat, we will do it."

The soldiers were looking at each other. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

It was unknown what they were thinking in their heart, but it was clear that they were not very calm.

Because this battle involved the interest of many people.

Which one is more important, family or kingdom?

Everyone\'s answer would be different.

It was human\'s nature and what people prioritized has always been different from one person to another.

"Very moving." Heavenly General Bao laughed. He looked at the people from Fei Yang Kingdom, especially Shangguan Xian. Even if the young man was young, but he was very decisive.

He looked at the row of women and children not far from him and suddenly felt bored.

"Unfortunately, I never intend to release them. Seeing them dies in front of your eyes is very exciting, isn\'t it?" Heavenly General Bao suddenly turned and smiled.

With a wave of his hand, the soldiers started to move.

"DO NOT!"

"Charge!" Shangguan Xian gave the order and the soldiers immediately charged forward, trying to save the people in front of them.

But the distance was too far.

How could they reach it in time?

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Blood shed like river, cries resound on the battlefield, and many people were screaming loudly. It was chaotic, but the soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom all still moved forward.

Because this is war.

And all is fair in war.
