The first month of the New Year passed quickly.

In this first month of the new year, Lu Yuan still hadn’t received any news from the Dan Ding Path.

It seemed that this major Daoist sect had indeed chosen, as he had guessed, to swallow their resentment and remain silent, not sending anyone for revenge.

While there was no movement on their side, news from the alliance had been coming in continuously as the first month came to an end.

First, it was news from Ning Country.

Near the end of the first month, the intelligence from that side finally arrived after several transfers.

At the end of last year, after resolving the domestic rebellion, Su King Su Xuange, despite the country still recovering from the chaos, made a decisive decision to send troops to conquer the southwestern barbarians.

This time, Su Country mobilized a total of 30,000 forbidden army soldiers, 30,000 county soldiers, and 40,000 militia, suddenly attacking Dali Country along Yulin County and Shi’an Mansion.

Now, after a month of fighting under Su Xuange’s personal leadership, Su Army quickly defeated the eastern vassals of Dali Country and Tong Hai Country, captured the eastern fortress town of Mu Ze City, and seized the first stronghold in the southwest.

At the moment, the Su Army is pursuing victory, and has already reached the central hub of Bu Tou City in Tong Hai Country.

Once this city is captured, the Su Army can directly march on the capital city of Jian Shui in Tong Hai Country and completely annihilate this southwestern Yi country.

However, as a powerful vassal of Dali, Tong Hai Country’s strength was not much different from that of Wu Savage Country. Although it lacked an Inborn Grandmaster, there was still a gap in the strength of its top fighters.

But they were not short of other first-class experts.

Therefore, when faced with the imminent enemy invasion and the risk of demise, they fought desperately in resistance.

At present, they have already gathered 30,000 troops and stationed them in Bu Tou City, preparing to fight tooth and nail against the Su Army.

Meanwhile, in the rear capital city of Jian Shui, they are also mobilizing troops in a frantic manner, expecting to gather another 50,000 troops to participate in guarding the city.

Although these hastily gathered troops were not very strong and not much different from the village braves and militia corps, it was very difficult for them to resist against Su Xuange, an Inborn Grandmaster.

However, with 80,000 troops, it wouldn’t be that easy for Su Xuange to defeat them if they focused on defense.

Judging from the current situation, it would take the Su Army at least two or three months to get rid of this country.

But by two or three months later, the news of the invasion of Tong Hai Country would have been sent back to their overlord, Dali Country. Naturally, it would be impossible for Dali Country to sit idly by when their vassals were under attack, having seen the precedent of Chu State.

It can be expected that the reinforcements from Dali Country should be sent to Tong Hai Country soon.

“By March or so, we should be able to see the great battle between Su Country and Dali Country.”

After reading these messages, Lu Yuan made these guesses, shook his head, and smiled. He then picked up another piece of intelligence: “However, with the help of Song Country to share the pressure, Su Xuange should feel much better.”

Originally, the alliance he had formed had agreed that on the 14th of the first month of the God of War year, the four nations would launch a joint campaign.

However, due to the news of Zhou Qing’s breakthrough to Innate in his Chu country, the four nations of the alliance all launched attacks ahead of schedule.

Ning Country advanced its military deployment date to the end of last year, and Song Country followed suit.

Last year, on the 20th of December, King Xie Ning of Song, who had just ascended the throne not long ago, held a ceremony to review the army outside Songping City.

Then, after the ceremony, he immediately ordered the 50,000 forbidden army that had been reviewed to march north and conquer Dali Country.

However, unlike Su Country’s attack on Tong Hai Country, Song Country targeted the ten Black Tooth Yi Nations in the south of Dali that were directly under Dali’s rule.

These Black Tooth Yi Nations were small countries, with only tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people in each country, and could only muster a few thousand to ten thousand troops, with weak strength.

As a result, when faced with the sudden invasion of Song Country, they had no time to react and were immediately destroyed by four Yi nations.

Eventually, the remaining six Yi nations responded.

But these Yi nations belonged to different countries and represented different interests, even though they were all under the jurisdiction of a single Dali overlord.

At this critical moment, they were unable to unite in the face of a foreign invasion, and each nation raised its own troops in its capital, seeking only to protect its own interests, and the united army was out of the question.

But what could a few thousand or a couple of ten thousand people hastily gathered under them do against the wolf-like army of Song Country?

At this critical juncture, each of them was only thinking of themselves and unwilling to help other countries withstand the enemy. In the end, they couldn’t escape the fate of being defeated one by one.

“The latest intelligence came on the sixth day of the first month, more than twenty days ago. Such a long time, if that Song King can seize the opportunity and move fast, he might have already conquered these ten small nations by now.”

Lu Yuan closed the intelligence and contemplated with his eyes closed.

He had no doubts about Song Country’s ability to defeat these ten small Yi nations and didn’t think they could stop Song Country’s advance.

After all, as an Inborn Grandmaster, this was a person who could fight against thousands of people alone.

The only way for a normal army without an Inborn Grandmaster to confront an Inborn Grandmaster was to gather 30,000 to 50,000 people and have several first-class experts commanding them.

First, let these first-class experts use their Inner Strength field to block the Inborn Grandmasters’ martial arts external body, and then let the ordinary soldiers rush up and use human lives to consume the Inborn Grandmasters’ True Pneuma.

By sacrificing a thousand or so lives in this way, they could finally deplete the Inborn Grandmasters’ True Pneuma and force the enemy to retreat.
