Jin Qianqian looked back at the generals huddled together against the cold wind, discussing matters, and couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart.
After getting to know them, she knew they all had their petty, selfish motives, but when it came to matters of principle, they always stood united.
It was because of them that Maozi Country, Lu City's greatest threat, couldn't take a single step past the border city.
As for the Eastern Yi, who were like pesky fleas, now with the watchtowers and telescopes, they wouldn't be able to cause any more trouble.
What she didn't know, however, was that the Eastern Yi, whom she thought were neutralized, would attack again before the year's end, driven mad by poverty.
Only this time, their fate would be even more miserable than the last. No one would be sending them back home.
