Chapter 1386: Giving Tit for Tat
Translator: WQL Editor:
Aleem“It’s the greatest honor for a fighter to die on the battlefield, not to mention that they perished together with their enemy while the latter was more powerful. They actually died for their country. By killing one more demon, they will save hundreds even thousands of commoners. Any courageous fighter would not retreat in that case. Neither should they retreat. I feel that we should encourage and publicize their heroic deeds; instead of preventing them from sacrificing themselves together with wing demons and iron-armored demons. We need to make more fighters determine their mind to fight demons to death...”
The heavenly knight elder of the imperial court of Taixia Country had opened his mouth calmly before Zuoqiu Mingyue expressed his opinion.
In silver beard, he had a high nose and narrow, long eyes. Given his look, Zhang Tie couldn’t identify his age. Additionally, he had a super great vibe. Previously, Zhang Tie had heard about him in Xuanyuan Fortress. According to Zhang Tie’s knowledge, this man was employed by the imperial court of Taixia Country. He was called Ning Taisheng and was assigned by the crown prince. In the theater of operations, this man was actually on behalf of the crown prince and the imperial court of Taixia Country in some sense. Even Zuoqiu Mingyue had to treat him politely. Zhang Tie didn’t see this person until yesterday. He didn’t have a chance to exchange with this person in such a short distance until this morning.
Since he saw Zhang Tie just now, Ning Taishou had been gazing at Zhang Tie in an unscrupulous way from his head to his toe. Therefore, Zhang Tie became a bit unpleasant inside; however, he didn’t show his unsatisfaction given their identities.
“Courageous and ferocious fighters don’t have to perish together with enemies!” Zhang Tie started his contradiction now that Ning Taisheng expressed his opinion which was opposite to that of his, “In my opinion, if fighters always choose to die, they’re actually not confident about their future. Soon after the air cavalry troops were established, they had been able to draw a tie with wing demons. LV 9 wing demons don’t have too much potential to tap; however, the air cavalries still have a great space of growth. The operational performance of our planes could be further improved. The tactics and strategies of air cavalries, especially that of large-scale air cavalry troops when they encountered a multitude of wing demons in the air, could be further fumbled and improved. As long as they have enough time, I believe that the air cavalries of Taixia Country would definitely defeat wing demons one day. All the air cavalries who have experience in fighting wing demons are the most precious resources of our country. As prospective kindling, it would be more valuable for them to be alive than to be dead!”
“Hahahaha, I don’t agree with you, general!” Ning Taisheng burst out into laughter as he pointed at the encampment of the demon army and said in a domineering manner, “Time works for everything. But the problem is that the demons might not spare us time. In that case, how could we prevent the attack of demons without the sacrifice of our fighters? If each fighter on the battlefield were thinking about surviving themselves on the battlefield, how could they serve our country? It’s said that the general once stayed in a dare-to-die camp in a remote country on Waii Subcontinent and behaved very ferociously and dauntlessly over there. You were even awarded by your army. How could you become so hesitated and soft-hearted in Taixia Country? Do you think that our fighters are not as brave as those barbarians?”
Zhang Tie didn’t know where did Ning Taisheng acquire his “events” from while naming Iron-Blood Camp as dare-to-die Camp; however, these events were not confidential to the public. Given his reputation, it was hard to get his past experience. If not Zhang Tie was always dauntless on the battlefield; especially his heroic deed yesterday which was known to the public, Ning Taisheng must have already denounced Zhang Tie as “timid”...
Zhang Tie looked straight into Ning Taisheng’s sharp eyes without making any concession as he said, “It’s not easy for the theater of operations to cultivate a qualified air cavalry. It would be too pitiful if the air cavalry died the moment he joined the battle. Besides killing the enemy, an air cavalry should also learn how to survive himself on the battlefield. It’s the basic quality of a fighter. If they could survive themselves, they would also create more opportunities for killing an enemy in the future. It’s not necessary for us to lose an air cavalry so easily on the battlefield...”
“I was told that the general had founded many pilot academies in the four provinces in less than one year, which could already easily cultivate a lot of air cavalries. After learning 3 months in a pilot academy, a qualified fighter of the provincial army would be able to master the driving skills and basic combat skills in the sky. An air cavalry only costs us less than 20 gold coins. The shooters on planes are much easier to be trained. A qualified fighter of the provincial army could join a battle only after 2 weeks’ training as long as he doesn’t have airsickness. Additionally, it only costs us dozens of gold coins to produce an air cavalry I airplane in mass production. If we could kill a LV 9 demon fighter by one or two ordinary fighters plus equipment which was worth fewer than 100 gold coins in total, I think it’s an economical trade. In this way, we could exploit the advantage of Taixia’s resources and population. We could actually suppress the wing demon troops now. Don’t need to wait until tomorrow!” Ning Taisheng said as he revealed a faint sneer as if he was deriding that Zhang Tie was too innocent, “General, you’d better be not as compassionate as women in the holy war!”
‘An economical trade?’ Zhang Tie was infuriated by these words at once. Zhang Tie didn’t feel angry about the words “as compassionate as women” as he would not even lose a hair due to it. However, he couldn’t accept the three words about ordinary fighters. Therefore, his words instantly became much more acrid, “Now that Elder Ning advocates dying together with the enemy, I’d like to see how you behave as a good model next time. I believe that demons don’t have more heavenly knights than us. If Elder Ning would like to be a good model for the air cavalries of Taixia Country, you would definitely enjoy a high glory forever along with my admiration...”
“You, unscrupulous...” Ning Taisheng, who behaved leisurely just now, instantly turned angry as he pointed at Zhang Tie and stammered.
“Elder Ning, didn’t you say that it’s the greatest glory for a fighter to die on the battlefield? Do you take it as a f*rt or what?”
Of course, Ning Taisheng didn’t break wind; instead, his battle qi instantly became undulated.
Zhang Tie just raised his head and watched him icily without any fear.
All the 7 heavenly knights watched Zhang Tie out of amazement as they had not imagined that Zhang Tie could offend an elder employed by the imperial household of Taixia Country for such a “trivial thing”...
