Chapter 1293

Upon learning that the Kaiyuan Kingdom had launched another offensive against the Sunu Kingdom, Jiang Chen immediately entered Nanshan Pass to gather intelligence on the war. He eventually learned that the two nations had been at war for some time, and the Sunu Kingdom had suffered a crushing defeat with heavy losses. If not for the Sunu Kingdom’s geographical advantages, which made the Kaiyuan army wary of lingering too long within their borders, the country would have already fallen and ceased to exist. He also discovered that the Kaiyuan Kingdom had already dispatched an army of ten million to assemble at the Axiantian Gorge. Meanwhile, the Sunu Kingdom had mustered thirty million troops, intending to make a desperate stand at Mang City. Knowing that they had thirty million men, Jiang Chen felt a temporary sense of relief; the Sunu Kingdom would not be overrun in the short term. However, he feared that if the Kaiyuan Kingdom continued to mobilize its entire national strength, even the Sunu Kingdom’s advantages might not be enough to prevent its collapse.
