”Nothing much; at most, I'll just retire!”

Facing the concern of the Lieutenant, Wang Feng smiled and acted relaxed. Anyone could tell the intense pain behind his smile.

The man in front of them was barely holding on.

When the Lieutenant saw that, he quietly turned around, not letting the general see the sympathy in his eyes. Toward someone like Wang Feng, what he least needed at this time was sympathy.

After Wang Feng calmed down, his right hand could not help but shake, his fingernails piercing into his flesh.

In the evening, the Shanhai City Squadron reached Red Cliff.

The warships were docked in the Wulin Fortress, and Ouyang Shuo immediately went to see Wang Feng. Seeing his general's injuries, his expression was really solemn and his eyes revealed an unconcealable sadness.

Wang Feng was one of the native generals that Ouyang Shuo had high hopes for. This general had spent these few years charging into the battlefield with him, contributing a lot.

Who would have expected that in the end he would become handicapped?

Ouyang Shuo was really sharp and instantly saw the will to die in his eyes. To a general like Wang Feng, he would rather die on the battlefield than live like this.

Wang Feng could only hold on until now because of his role and responsibility.

Seeing the Monarch, he totally relaxed; his eyes no longer contained the will to live left.

When Ouyang Shuo saw that, his heart pained.

When he received the frogmen report in the morning, Ouyang Shuo lost control of his legs and fell to the floor. In this battle, he had lost his most loyal Guards Captain and the commander of the Divine Martial Guards.

Such a loss of blood was one that Ouyang Shuo could not recover from.

In the battle map, basic soldiers could be revived with contribution points but advanced generals could not. The moment they died, they would truly die and could not be revived.

To make matters worse, they were not historical generals, so they could not be revived through the martial temple.

Generals like Chen Dameng had not upgraded to King Rank, so he did not even have this route to revival.

As a result, Ouyang Shuo would never hear the loud voice of his Personal Guards Captain ever again.

For this reason, Ouyang Shuo had opposed the two of them going on this mission. During these two days, Ouyang Shuo had been feeling extremely uneasy, who knew that the tragedy would still strile in the end.

Seeing Wang Feng's expression, it was like a knife cutting his heart.

Ouyang Shuo looked at Wang Feng with a solemn expression, ”Look, I will not allow you to commit suicide. You are the most elite general that Shanhai City has produced till date. Even without a hand, you must live like a warrior. I look forward to the day I see you set off onto the battlefield once more. Remember, do not let me look down on you.”

”Monarch!”

When Wang Feng heard these words, he could not hold his emotions in check anymore; he pulled onto the collar of Ouyang Shuo and cried out. The iron general was bawling his eyes out like a child.

When the surrounding soldiers saw this scene, they were all shocked.

At the current moment, no one would mock Wang Feng; instead, they would be touched by this interaction between Monarch and subordinate. Even Jia Xu could not help but tear up.

Jia Xu totally did not expect that this young Monarch actually had such charm.

Tears swelled up at the corners of his eyes as Ouyang Shuo patted Wang Feng's head, ”Rest well!”

After these words, Ouyang Shuo had no more to add, giving out a long sigh before walking away.

When the soldiers saw this scene, they followed Ouyang Shuo, giving Wang Feng ample room to rest up and calm down his emotions.

This night was destined to be a sleepless one.

The squadron had just reached Red Cliff. Originally, there were many matters that needed Ouyang Shuo to decide. Helplessly, he had already locked himself in his reading room, and no one dared to disturb him.

Luckily, with Zheng He and Jia Xu taking charge, nothing much happened.

The next morning, the sun rose from the east.

Ouyang Shuo had woken up; he had already tossed aside the weakness and softness, returning to being the Monarch that ruled the world.

”Men!”

Ouyang Shuo was ready to summon Zheng He and Jia Xu to discuss their next course of action.

”Monarch!” A lanky soldier walked in.

Seeing the one that walked in was not that familiar burly figure, a flash of loss appeared in his eyes. The one temporarily replacing Chen Dameng was the assistant captain.

Ouyang Shuo put away his emotions and said, ”Invite Zheng He and Jia Xu over.”

”Yes Monarch!”
