"Good then."
The number of doctors who were in the border with them were not many. It was only enough for them to treat most of the soldiers slowly when they were wounded. But even then, some people who were injured too badly could only end up dying.
"Are they replicating Zhang Xu Kingdom?" Shangguan Xian suddenly asked.
Shangguan Xiao arched. "Even if they want to replicate Zhang Xu Kingdom, they didn't have the necessary foundation to truly build an army consisted of loyal people or poison that's efficient enough to be used in a large crowd."
Thinking about the Lin Family, Shangguan Xiao had a headache. He didn't want to think about it anymore right now because it would only make him thought about that battle many years ago.
The poison that killed his own father.
However, that poison mist was a secret family technique within Lin Family. They would never want to leak it outside no matter what. Because if it were to be used on them, they would never survive.
Thus, everyone in the Lin Family guarded the secret tightly.
If Shi Long Kingdom also wanted to use poison, it was not impossible. However, their application would be different because they definitely couldn't replicate Lin Family methods.
"How did they poison us anyway?" General Feng was more concerned about this. If they found out the method, they could try to block it one way or another.
"I don't know." Shangguan Xiao rubbed his forehead. Medicines were definitely not his forte. "Did the soldiers who got sick come to certain location or something? If we found out about that, we might be able to get some clues."
"No, it's quite random. Some of them are part of the vanguard and some others are from the patrol."
General Feng sighed.
If only he could know how the poison entered the camp, he would have long settled the matter as quickly as possible. But there was no such thing. He had asked his men to investigate, but the cases seemed random.
"There had to be some patterns." Shangguan Xiao sighed. "For the time being, let's be more careful. We can't fall here."
"I know." General Feng nodded.
They talked a bit more before General Feng left with Shangguan Xian. Even though they didn't know what kind of methods those people in Shi Long Kingdom used, they had to do their best to figure it out.
Shangguan Xiao sighed after his older brother and General Feng had left. He really didn't want to, but Shi Long Kingdom seemed to be copying Zhang Xu Kingdom's tactic. And in this case, the best person who could deal with this kind of method was Great General Wei who had spent half of his lifetime fighting against them.
After thinking for a while, Shangguan Xiao decided to just write a letter.
…
The next day, another battle broke out.
