The common people of Yan City were busy fishing and storing grains, while also forming patrol teams and bustling around the city.
Aside from the maniac lord, the most renowned element of Xin City was their military force.
With a maniacal lord, the soldiers under him are bound to bear the same traits.
Perhaps they weren't capable of taking on a hundred enemies at once, but facing five opponents was doable for them.
The troops currently in Yan City were just two thousand. It might sound substantial, but with the constant physical drain and weather conditions, many had fallen ill.
The civilian patrol team had just over a thousand members, but they lacked solid foundation in martial arts. They might handle fights in normal times, but going to the battlefield was a far cry for them.
If Xin City had already sent spies, it indicated they were planning to attack Yan City.
With the unknown regarding their military strength and food supplies, everyone could only prepare for the worst.
