Chapter 355: The Changing Nature of Offense and Defense

In Changsha Prefecture over there, Chu State had stationed twenty thousand Forbidden Army soldiers and seventy thousand Militia, totaling ninety thousand troops.

Out of these ninety thousand, a thousand Forbidden Army soldiers and nine thousand Militia were drawn out to form a ten thousand-strong legion, stationed at the border of Changsha Prefecture and Chu Ning, serving as the outer perimeter guard.

Such a Ragtag Army-like guard legion couldn't possibly withstand the assault of an Inborn Grandmaster leading a hundred thousand elite troops.

The ten thousand soldiers on the border of Changsha faced the sudden attack of the Ning Army and were crushed in less than half a day.

Then, within two days, the Ning Army had reached the foot of Changsha City.

Fortunately, within Changsha City, including civilian workers, there were eighty thousand defenders. By urgently conscripting some able-bodied men from the city, they barely managed to assemble a hundred thousand troops.
