The Human Emperor (1-200)

C192: Future Great General!

There were many people on the mountain, be it the participating examinees or the Imperial Army guards. Thus, it wasn’t easy for Wang Chong to find the instructor he had set his eyes upon among the huge crowd.

“You fool! Didn’t you hear what I just said…”

Just as Wang Chong was searching for the hidden instructor, he suddenly heard a slightly harsh and suppressed voice.

“But gongzi, this is my only chance…”

A pleading voice responded.

“Hmph! I don’t care whether this is your only chance or not. Don’t forget that my father is in control of your father’s livelihood. If you refuse to follow my commands, you can start packing up for your return to the countryside. At that time, don’t blame me for not warning you in advance!”

“That fellow is extremely powerful so you better keep this in mind. No matter what happens, you must severely injure him for me. I know what you’re capable of so you can definitely do it…”

The harsh voice from before threatened menacingly.

“Hmph! Just another scion bullying those who come from humbler backgrounds. It is one thing if it is somewhere else, but to dare to do it within the Three Great Training Camps, he sure is brazen!”

Wang Chong sneered coldly within.

He had heard of some people making use of their family’s authority to force others to act as they please so as to give themselves an edge during the examination.

As it was hard to trace down these methods and they weren’t explicitly forbidden in the rules either, the instructors had no way of dealing with them.

Wang Chong didn’t expect to really stumble by such an incident.

Wang Chong quickly turned around and looked toward the origin of the voice. There were many people walking about Kunwu Training Camp, but there were very few who paid that group any attention.

Across the crowd, Wang Chong saw three haughty figures standing before a shabbily-dressed teenager. The teenager was kneeling on the ground, grabbing onto the leg of one of the men, pleading earnestly with all of his might. Despair could be seen in his eyes.

Initially, Wang Chong didn’t pay it much heed, but after seeing the other party’s appearance, he suddenly jolted.

“Why… is it him?”

Wang Chong stood there in a daze as some memories surfaced in his mind. In his previous life, the Kunwu Training Camp became the birthplace of countless rising generals.

The number of great generals who walked out of Kunwu Training Camp was more than enough to light up the skies of Great Tang for a very long time. That was the era in which Great Tang was at its greatest, as well as the era which Great Tang showed the final glimpse of its greatness.

Back then, while all those brilliant stars were lighting up the skies. Wang Chong was only an ordinary civilian.

By the time Wang Chong’s era came, they had already fallen. This was why Wang Chong had never really met or interacted with them.

This was also one of the deep regrets in Wang Chong’s heart.

Despite being the final Grand Marshal of Great Tang, he didn’t have many talented generals who could hold their own ground on their own. This had proven fatal in the catastrophic war.

Unable to prop up the situation by himself, Wang Chong could only hold on for a little over a decade before complete defeat.

If he could alter history and rise during the era of these great generals; if he had so many great generals under his command, perhaps everything would have been different.
