Chapter 41: enemy inside the home?

Race to the

Throne

District Zhanyi, border of Province Kuwon

Military Base-

"Now, that bitch and her brother will know pain…" A man in military uniform said as he took a glass of wine

At his side, there is another man

He smiled and said "Yes, General Yao Tu, finally that crippled girl will know her place and this land will become one with the Liaohua Kingdom"

Both of them are laughing loudly right now inside their barrack

Who are they?

One is the general of this Zhanyi District border and the other one is the lieutenant general

After the death of all 500 soldiers from the Liaohua Kingdom, their emperor and his minister didn't stay silent as they sent there few soldiers into the enemy land as local citizens

And thanks to General Yao Tu, they all have successfully penetrated the province

Their main mission is to kill Hao Jiazhi and Hao Tai, or mainly Hao Jiazhi as he is making some big moves in the whole province, something not well-liked by Emperor of Liaohua Kingdom as he will lose this province

And its military advantages also if the Tengyuan Kingdom and all other 2 big kingdoms come to know just how good the land is

It was one hell of a long plan that made soldier wait for more than a year in the enemy land as they will strike at that time when everything is ready to be taken away from them (Liaohua Kingdom)

But, you know

Never celebrate before the war is fully over and you are sure that you have won it

Outside their barrack is Captain Dai Feng, one of Hao Jiazhi's men and he had hear everything correctly

Dai Feng didn't waste any time and went straight towards the unit that is Hao Jiazhi's personal unit "DAWN"

And there he started telling them everything

Bai Hong also came to the scene as she saw her captain running here and there

She also gets to know just what is going on

"We will first go towards the city and make sure that both Princess Hao Tai and Colonel Hao Jiazhi is safe" Bai Hong said to them

At this, Dai Feng nodded but Zi Jun (2nd leader, after Hao Jiazhi, of unit Dawn) didn't nod and presented his own view

"We only move when we are given orders, and we only follow orders from our colonel. The order he gave us before he left is to look after the border and eliminate those who are a threat to the defense of this province (Kuwon)" Zi Jun said in a commanding heavy tone

Dai Feng heard from Xu Hai, Mao Xue, and other 3 shadows that Hao Jiazhi always make sure that the people he is training are always loyal to him so don't mess with them

Thus, Dai Feng didn't pursue this talk anymore

On the other hand, Bai Hong wanted the assistance of the "Dawn" unit as this is the only unit that is highly trained as compared to them. So, having them by their side will sure that they will eliminate every enemy in the district

But to this, Zi Jun said "Do you think they will be alone?"

This made Bai Hong silent

If what Dai Feng has heard correctly then for sure there are more enemies outside waiting to attack them or they are already near them

Suddenly, the birds that are owned by the Dawn Unit started screaming and flying here and there.

All these birds are right now outside their cage, keeping an eye on the border

Their scream clearly shows that there are enemies outside

Zi Jun stands up and then gave out his command "Soldiers, wear your helmet…. Its time to do our Job"

They left the place but Dai Feng and Bai Hong are still inside the barrack. Right now, Bai Feng is in the highest position so he should command the soldiers

He made up his mind and said "Bai Hong, as the captain of this army, I order you to go and call all soldiers as we are in a war right now"

Bai Hong didn't want to follow this order as Hao Tai means a lot to her but still, she has to follow the order as a soldier

"Also, make a small squad of 50 men and take them to the capital district with you and make sure that both our colonel and Princess Hao Tai is safe" Dai Feng said as he wants to show Hao Jiazhi that how good he is in a critical moment

Everyone knows that those who do work for Hao Jiazhi live a great life (his status as royalty has long been exposed to them, still no one cares much about it)

Bai Hong didn't waste any time and started preparing her team to rescue princess Hao Tai

At border-

"Do you even know what you are doing, right now??!!! I am you superior" General Ya Tu and his lieutenant said to Zi Jun and his unit but they didn't care about it

"Shut them up, but make sure you don't kill them" Zi Jun gave his command to his team and then moves towards the end of the border wall to see if the enemy size

"hmmm…only this much?" Zi Jun asks as he looks at the size of the enemy army which is only around 100

Something he and his team can kill all by themselves, but is this really the main army, or is it a trap?

That's the question Zi Jun is thinking

Dai Feng also reaches the scene and saw General Ya Tu and his lieutenant being tied in rope (unconscious)

He didn't care much about them and looked at the enemy charging towards them which is only 100 soldiers, the same question in his head right now

But he easily found an answer

"There is no way this is their main army, this army is only to divert our attention. The main army must have long penetrated the whole province" Dai Feng said as he looks at the army

Suddenly, he sensed something up in the air, arrows, and tries to step back but ZI Jun hold him in his place

Dai Feng didn't understand the reason behind this as its pure suicide, but to his surprise, the dawn unit came in front of them and created a wall from their shield around them. Protecting them from the arrows

"AHHH"

But, the wall was only enough to protect them, and no other soldiers

"So what should we do?" Zi Jun asked

Dai Feng looked at him and said "hey, even though you work under my superior, still Give me some respect"

Zi Jun gave a small smile at his words

The human wall clears up and the enemy is now in front of their door

"The main soldier is already inside the province, its best to send our soldier to the cities/district and leave few men behind to take care of them" Dai Feng said as he looks at the enemy and then starts giving orders as a captain one by one

On the other side-

"You really think we assassins are some bullshit?" A girl said as she takes her knife out of a man's chest

She spits on the face of the dead man and said "We assassins, with just one look at the face of a person, can tell if he is a civilian or a soldier"

The war has begun

. . .
