Dao Equaling the Heavens

In mid-December, the battle situation was at a standstill, and the advance of the Nanchun Army halted.

For fifteen consecutive days, there was not only no further progress, but they had actually been pushed back to the pass. Initially, they could only rely on the fortifications of the South Gate to barely withstand the court’s counterattacks.

Although the court was on the brink of collapse, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse.

In the military camp, numerous generals gathered around a massive map, voices of argument rising and falling in heated exchange, each airing their views.

But without exception, all wanted to completely overthrow Daqian.

Before moving out of Nanshui, the Nanchun Army was internally divided into two factions: the conservative faction wanted to negotiate peace, while the radical faction wanted to establish independent control over a region. Only a very few wanted to break out and seize the rightful leadership of the world.

After capturing Luodu, the direction of the wind had done a 360-degree turn. The last deterrent power of Daqian had completely disappeared with their occupation of Luodu.

At that moment, everyone was thinking about becoming nobles and ministers.

Jiang Jucai was no exception; a person’s ambition tends to rise with their position.

Suddenly, a voice carried over on the evening breeze, and Jiang Jucai abruptly interrupted the speaking general, saying, "Let’s stop here for today, generals. Please go back and rest."
