Chapter 598: The Wolf Smoke Regiment (4)

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The Blaze Army soldiers were totally bewildered and looked at Ji Fengyan as if she was a strange creature.

Linghe noticed their reaction and cleared his throat. “Could I trouble you all not to tell others of what you just saw…”

Linghe felt that it was best not to let the Green Nightmare Army know of Ji Fengyan’s true capabilities for now.

The Blaze Army men nodded dumbly; At this moment, they would have agreed to anything Linghe said.

Ji Fengyan carried out some basic medical treatment on their injuries. The Blaze Army soldiers got all teary-eyed at how capable and versatile Ji Fengyan was.

They were wrong, utterly wrong.

They had judged a book by its cover and had even mocked the fact that the General of the Wolf Smoke Regiment was a silly little girl. Now, they were nearly kneeling before this “silly little girl” in adoration.

After stabilizing the injured soldiers, Ji Fengyan assigned a few men to send them back to camp.

However…

Those two bumbling children had become a major problem.

Having rescued them from the clutches of the demons, these kids had nowhere to go. The demons and military regulations had completely destroyed their hometown stipulated they could not be brought into the army camp. Moreover, the camp would no longer be a safe place when the three armies started their battle with the demons.

Those two children held onto each other tightly. Their gaze shone with understanding at their own dire straits as they stared pleadingly at Ji Fengyan to save them from it all.

“What should we do with them?” Linghe looked that the two kids in vexation. Their parents were dead and the entire village demolished. But they could not bring such young children back to camp. The war may erupt at any moment and it was too dangerous to have the children inside then.

As if they knew Linghe was talking about them, the two kids took on a sudden look of panic. They instinctively turned toward Ji Fengyan, their eyes vulnerable and imploring.

Lu Shaoqing piped up from the side. “Why don’t we send them to Ping City.”

“Ping City?” Ji Fengyan raised her brows.

Lu Shaoqing patiently explained, “Ping City was one of the earliest cities built. During the early years of the nation’s war against the demons, Ping City had been the principal city used in their battle strategies…”

There were two other cities before the battle for the Plain of Corpses—both had been destroyed in that war. Only Ping City remained, having performed exceedingly well in their defense against the demons and even earning a commendation from the Emperor himself. The city was now being used as a logistics hub for the Plain of Corpses. It was considered the most prosperous part of the area surrounding the plains.

The Plain of Corpses also had several villages in its surrounding areas. However, those villages were scattered all over. Moreover, over twenty of those villages had suffered demon attacks in the past year—of which more than half had been utterly ruined with no one left alive.

Like these two children, there were many others who had become homeless after having everything destroyed by the demons.

As the last city near the Plain of Corpses, the Ping City was extremely hospitable to the villages surrounding the plains. They were also more than willing to receive refugees of the demon attacks.
