A Crippling Battlefield

Such a devastating war had never taken place in the many years after the western front's conquest.

After all, they were arrayed against different enemies; the armies of Dongxuan and Ziyou were significantly different in their tactics and methods of battle.

If one were to judge an army purely on their combat abilities, the men from the Empire of Ziyou would reign supreme. However, they had never gotten the upper hand when going against Yutang's army who possessed excellent teamwork. This was why Yutang's western troops, who had experienced many skirmishes with Ziyou's army, felt that their combat ability was the best in Yutang. It was also the reason that Marshal Wang of the western line had ordered the relief troops to take back the title of Yutang's top army.

Now that the western elites had personally witnessed the situation in the east, their hearts fell immediately. The tens of thousands of corpses were but the result of a single battle!
