Sword Among Us

Leading an army into war and fighting in a war was a dream for every boy!

Right now, the chance was right in front of his eyes, and there was no way Happy would not be excited.

[Happy!]

There were plenty of people who were very excited about this aside from Happy. They sent messenger pigeons over and asked about Happy’s opinion. Even Silver Wolf joined in without exception.

[The war will be situated at the borders to the north of Shanxi, right next to the Mongolian Empire. That place is Class One Hall’s territory, and this time, we might encounter a little bit of trouble.]

Silver Wolf reminded Happy.

Happy frowned and answered quickly. [It’s fine. During the one month the armies fight against each other, all branches in the Chinese plains will be invincible. They will not be invaded in any way, and we don’t have to worry. Unless Class One Hall wants to miss this banquet, they will not choose to attack at this moment.]

But Silver Wolf was still a little worried. [That’s what I think so too. But war will only break out three days later, and we might not be able to cross Class One Hall’s borders ahead of time. Otherwise, once the people from Class One Hall finds out that there’s a gap in our defenses, they will definitely attack our branches, but if we don’t enter ahead of time, we will waste too much time trying to get to the borders, and we will lose the initiative.]

They will need at least one day to get from the borders separating Mu Clan and Class One Hall to the borders leading to the Mongolian Empire. If they moved ahead of time, they will be in danger, but if they dragged on until the war officially started, they did not believe that the Mongolian Army will be able to last until the end of the month when they faced the large Chinese world of martial artists.

No matter what, Mu Clan was in a very passive situation. Class One Hall was close to the site of the war, and they will benefit greatly from it!

[I know this too, but there’s nothing we can do about it. After all, Class One Hall is in the north, and it’s only natural that they’ll benefit more than us.]

This was something that Happy found himself helpless against.

[If you show your face in the north on the last day before the war, things might be better.] Silver Wolf suggested.

Happy instantly smiled. [There’s no problem about that. I’m already very close to Beijing.]

[That’s good. Should I tell our clan members to begin preparations?]

When Silver Wolf replied, Thunderous Battle also sent his messenger pigeon into Happy’s hands. In his letter, Thunderous Battle went straight ahead to ask Happy how many people he wanted to mobilize in the war at the borders.

Happy thought about it for a moment before he answered, [As you like. Tell everyone that the members who stay back to guard the branch during the event will have five thousand contribution points for each day they stay back. Those who stay for a month will have an additional reward of a piece of equipment at the third echelon.

[Those who want to carry out their quests at the borders can form their own parties and head there.]

[So, are you saying that I can join as well?] Thunderous Battle sounded very excited.

Happy smiled wanly.

But he could understand Thunderous Battle’s feelings as well. Ever since he built Mu Clan, he stayed in Baokang constantly, and he never left Baokang too far, so he was probably bored out of his mind. This time, he intended to use the event and come out to wander about while the two armies fought against each other.

[You can come out if you want. After all, when we’re at the borders, we can’t fight against our own soldiers.]

When Happy wrote this sentence, he actually felt that it was a pity. Because of this, he cannot stop Class One Hall from accumulating points to get military titles.

[Alright. The people in the clan might be thinking about taking a stroll for a while as well. I’ve told the people in Pill Refinement Hall to increase their speed in creating Dew Pills and Origin Leopard Pills. The demand for these things will definitely exceed the supply during war. Heheh, at that time, I’ll lead a group of cavaliers and experience the feeling of charging forward to break a formation! Even if I die, it wouldn’t have been a waste to go up there to wander about the lands! Haha!] Thunderous Battle answered in incredible excitement.

Happy smiled in resignation. Once he wrote his reply to Thunderous Battle, he talked about forming a party with Silver Wolf and Thunderous Battle.

[That military rank system is a good thing. Not only will we be able to command soldiers, when we come back, we can even get commanding titles in the military. Those with the highest points can even get the title of generals, and even if we kill in the city, we won’t be breaking the law!]

[The Mongolian Army claim that they have one million armored cavaliers, and they didn’t report a specific figure for their scouts and infantries. I think that the total points will be more than fifteen million points. Heh, at that time, we just need to form a group of elites and charge into the main force.]

But Thunderous Battle’s words were swiftly refuted by Silver Wolf. [When two armies fight, it’s not a normal fight in the land of wanderers. You won’t be able to get your kills so easily.]

[That’s right.]

This was something Happy agreed with. He did not underestimate the Mongolian cavaliers like Thunderous Battle did.

The cavaliers formed by these nomads were all great archers and warriors. Hu Bilie was also an existence praised and admired by countless countries in history!

In the beginning, he caused Huaxia’s [1] territory to cover almost all of Eurasia.

Even though the Chinese world of martial artists seem to have great numbers and great strength as of current, causing there to be a discrepancy of strength between both forces, if they looked down on Hu Bilie and his cavaliers, things will definitely end in tragedy.

Silver Wolf sent a messenger pigeon to each of the two of them as a reminder. [I’ve seen the marsha’s elite heavy-armored cavaliers before. The Mongolian Army’s cavaliers might not compare to them, but they should be about the same in terms of abilities, and we’re talking about their normal cavaliers. If we’re talking about the real Mongolian cavaliers, their heavy-armored cavaliers and Hu Bilie’s cavalry archers are nightmares on the plains. With our strength, we simply can’t fight against them.]

Happy said nothing to refute Silver Wolf’s opinion.

When they were outside Yangzhou, even Drifting Sword had only attacked the marshal’s heavy-armored cavaliers when their formation and layout was at its weakest, and he even had to use various techniques and avoid using brute strength to win against them.

It might be easy for them to fight against one or two average martial art elites, but when they had to fight against a group, their strength will be inferior.

[Are they that good?] Thunderous Battle stuck out his tongue on his side.

[It’s not that easy to get points, otherwise, with so many players from China, no one will be able to get a lot of points. That’s why I suggest that Mu Clan shouldn’t send out too many people. We shouldn’t do something similar to the battle at Light Summit, or else, the war will end before most of us get to the most crucial ticket to join it.] Silver Wolf said earnestly.

[Instead of wasting time at the border for a month, it’s better to settle down and train for a month. After this one month, Class One Hall might take action.] Silver Wolf did not forget to give them a reminder. [I’ve already heard from Wandering Know-it-all that Class One Hall has been using everything they have to bring Ximen Chuixue’s disciple to their side. I’m talking about the mysterious teenager who defeated One Emperor.]

When he said the last sentence, both could tell that the tone of the letter had become incredibly grim.

If a top-class elite like One Emperor could not even receive one sword thrust from Ximen Chuixue, Silver Wolf had absolutely no confidence that he could win.

If that sort of person ended up in Dream Clouds’ hands to be used against Mu Clan, Mu Clan might be in even more danger.

There was a reason behind Silver Wolf’s worries. Thunderous Battle could understand it, and so could Happy.

[This time, when I go to Beijing, I will personally meet that mysterious boy.]

‘Huh?’

Silver Wolf and Thunderous Battle were shocked. They quickly sent messenger pigeons over to try and persuade Happy against the idea.

[That’s Class One Hall’s territory. It’s not very appropriate for you to do that, is it?]

[That’s right. Why don’t we wait for the war to end first?]

[It’ll be of no harm to the boy if you win, but if you lose…]

[Could you have some confidence in me, seriously? I’m in Moksha Realm, you know? If I really lose to Ximen Chuixue’s disciple, I’ll be able to see just where I am lacking as well.] Happy stopped writing for a moment before the tone in his letter changed. [The main point is that I really want to meet this youngster named Responsible Hero and see just how fast is his sword draw.]
