105 Problematic Lan Pan
Northwest border
The situation on Lan Ping side is not as glorious as they said. The victory is true, but the process is far more arduous compared with the other two general where they had complete control over their soldiers. For Lan Ping, his brother is a double-edged axe.
"Brother Pan, please don't attack our own soldier," Lan Ping mouth twitched a bit when he once again sees his brother is attacking his soldiers. While that brother of his is indeed a big help, he won't differentiate between friends and foes, making it harder for him to maintain the unity of his soldiers.
The soldiers are all afraid of Lan Pan. Firstly, this man big blade would attack on anyone whenever he wishes. Secondly, this man martial art is far higher than any of them, including Lan Ping which makes it even harder to stop him. Thirdly, he won't listen to anyone except Lan Ping to a certain degree.
"What is it, my dear brother?" Lan Pan smiled back. His face is highly similar to Lan Ping, but the murderous intent around him makes people unable to breathe properly. His devilish smile would be on his place, but his eyes are exceedingly cold and unfeeling.
"Don't attack them," Lan Ping said once again.
"Fine. When will we go into another war? I'm already impatient," waving his blade, Lan Pan stepped back. His casual demeanor caused the soldiers to feel chills even just by looking at this man. They truly wished this man to go away and didn't bother them anymore. No one wants to get close with the person who might kill them on a whim.
"Later," Lan Ping answered.
"Really? How long is that later?"
Facing this question, Lan Ping feels troubled. He knows that his father didn't trust him enough that he would be able to face off the enemies, which is the reason Lan Pan is sent here. But, the problem is, even he cannot fully order his brother. Lan Pan is a scary person and even Lan Ping feels afraid when facing him.
The numerous victories he gains over the past few weeks are all Lan Pan's credit, but at the same time, Lan Ping had lost nearly half of his original soldier and most of them are caused by this man over here. He didn't dare to complain to his father, but he too cannot explain the loss of thousands of soldiers to his father without mentioning the name of his brother.
He directs his gaze to his brother. "I don't know. Please be patience."
Lan Pan narrowed his eyes and looks towards his brother. In the past, Lan Ping always pestered Lan Pan to train with him and followed him whenever he goes. But, the cruel method Lan Pan does and his attitude caused Lan Ping to never do it anymore. He would distance himself from his brother and even goes to the battlefield alone. Lan Pan never said anything and a smile is always plastered on his face.
"I can't stay patience. I want to kill them."
Lan Ping face turned ashen. "You can't."
"You called them your soldiers? These weaklings are not worth it."
Lan Ping knows that his brother martial art is exceptional, but all of these soldiers are the soldiers of Lan family. They might not be able to be compared with the soldiers of Nanglong family and Jun family, but they are certainly not weak. Unfortunately, it's useless to reason with this man and Lan Ping cannot refute him.
"They are enough, brother, please have some rest."
"I'm the one the heaven chosen, why should I need rest?" Lan Pan said coldly.
The pressure coming from Lan Pan is even more than the previous one. Lan Ping never understands the word about this heaven chosen and all, but he knows that his brother believes in it completely. Going by his brother words, he's someone the whole word should respect and all, but Lan Ping never believes this rambling. He only knows that his brother is someone stronger and problematic.
"Then just go and don't kill them," Lan Ping said while bearing the pressure.
"If you said so, my dear brother."
After Lan Pan left, Lan Ping could finally breath in relieve. After all these years, he could never surpass his brother and always left in the dust by his prowess and ability. He's still afraid of him and cannot see him on his eyes anymore.
"General, why are you keeping him here? The losses we suffered all this timeā¦"
"Shut your mouth," Lan Ping glared at that soldier. "Do I give you any permission to talk about your superior?"
"No, I'm sorry general!"
Lan Ping dismissed them and returned back to his tent. He's awfully tired of handling that problematic brother of his. He's sure that in front of his own soldiers, he has turned into an incompetent leader who should have changed his ranks back down.
One of the soldiers comes to report unexpected news. Lan Ping eyes shone when he heard the news. This time, it will be another chance for a showdown between the three of them.
"The distance from here to the north border and from northwest border to the north border is more or less the same. This time, I will arrive even faster than them and dominate the war," Lan Ping smiled evilly. He had wanted to erase the name of incompetence general for some time and this is the perfect chance for him.
"Tell Lan Pan, we are going to slaughter some people."
"Yes, general!"
Lan Ping smiled. With Lan Pan helping him, even those two would be unable to contend. The victory will be his as long as he can arrive first.
