The opponent had been fighting Li Xiong for more than four years, and their back-and-forth struggles had left their own country in ruins.

It’s not to say that the local people were destitute and homeless, but at the very least, they were far from being stable and prosperous.

Poverty and hardship, this was the true portrayal of Da Changhe Country.

Most importantly…

After several years of fighting, it was impossible to maintain production in the local areas, and with a large number of able-bodied men being drafted into the army, there was no one left to farm.

After spending so many years in this state, even an opponent with a thick foundation would not be able to withstand it.

What was Dongting District like after being ravaged by the Poison Sect for several years?

Lu Yuan remembered it clearly to this day.

Back then, in order to raise funds for his army, he even sold himself to the Dan Ding Path and even went to Yuzhang Prefecture, wiped out the Iron Sword Sect, just to barely make enough money for the war.

How he struggled through it back then, now Da Changhe Country has to experience it all over again.

No, with the opponent’s weaker foundation compared to Dongting District, it might be even more difficult.

Therefore, when compared, Lu Yuan was not afraid to outlast his opponent.

In fact, he quite enjoyed witnessing the current stalemate.

It’s just a matter of spending money.

Without fighting people, without consuming his precious troops, he could slowly break the enemy down and then harvest the spoils of war.

This tactic, how to put it?

Quite good.

“And it’s nearing the end of the year, and soon it will be the fifth year of Shenwu.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

According to the agreement of the united front, by the beginning of next year, the three countries of Su, Song, and Xichuan will send troops to attack the Southwest Barbarians.”

At that time, with the three countries attacking from the rear…

Hehe, faced with these sudden enemies from behind, Dali and Nanzhao would be too busy to help you.”

Do you really think that I’m attacking the Southwest Barbarians blindly, without any preparation?

You have allies, and so do I.”

As for Da Changhe Country’s insistence on holding onto the Lu River despite knowing the growing poverty within the country, Lu Yuan could guess the opponent’s plan.

It was nothing more than realizing they couldn’t defeat him, and wanting to seek help from the big Dali and Nanzhao countries behind them.

As for this, Lu Yuan also had his countermeasures.

He had previously spent a lot of effort lobbying everywhere, and established a four-country united front alliance to deal with this kind of situation, hadn’t he?

Da Changhe Country wanted to find someone to help them share the pressure.

And Lu Yuan was no different.

At this point, he wasn’t sure whether the opponent had successfully persuaded their allies or not.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

But his own allies would launch their attack in about three or four months.

By that time, with enemies attacking from three different directions, Lu Yuan didn’t believe that Dali and Nanzhao would sit back and let their own countries face such dangerous enemies, even if it meant risking their lives to help Da Changhe Country.

If they really did that, he would be willing to call them great for the rest of their lives.

Their selflessness and dedication was indeed admirable.

“There’s no big problem on my side now. All I need to do is wait slowly and let time wear down the opponent, and victory will slowly be won.

It’s just that Xiaoqing has broken through to Innate. It’s time to hold a celebration for her, announce it to the world, and deter those in-human hearts while harvesting some Qi Luck.”

Lu Yuan’s eyes looked toward the northeast direction, where Xiangyang City was located.

According to the original plan…

He was actually going to launch an attack on the Southwest Barbarians at the beginning of next year, in January as agreed in the united front.

But at this time, he was waiting for Zhou Qing to break through to Innate and hold a celebration for her in this period.

Announcing it to the world and deterring interested parties at home and abroad while also using this opportunity to further enhance Chu State’s prestige and harvest some Qi Luck.

It’s just that because of the sudden failure of Li Xiong on the side of Da Changhe Country, he had to advance his army early.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

However, even though the plan had changed, the celebration for Zhou Qing should still be held.

This was an important means for Lu Yuan to gather Qi Luck and stabilize internal and external forces, and without putting it on display for all to see, it would be impossible to deter people’s hearts and gather Qi Luck.

“Though I have only been on the expedition for four months, some local aristocrats and martial arts sects in Xiangyang Prefecture have already shown some signs of unrest.

Liang Country has also increased its troops near the border of Xiangyang Prefecture, with an implicit intention to probe Chu State.”

If they don’t bring out an Inborn Grandmaster soon, those local people who have their hearts set on Zhou Country might take advantage of my absence and jump out to rebel.”

And Liang Country is like a shit-stirring stick. Every time there is a wind, they come running like a cat smelling blood. They probably can’t help but get involved.

Time is pressing. Holding a celebration for Qing’er’s breakthrough to Innate can no longer wait.”

Thinking of the various news sent by the Imperial City Administration, a trace of worry and killing intent flashed in Lu Yuan’s eyes.

The founding of Chu State was still too short.

The people’s hearts had not yet fully submitted, and a large number of former Zhou people wanted to return to their old country and continue to be the Hegemon of Yong State.

Although Chu State was also expanding constantly and showing signs of becoming the top power in Yangzhou, how could this local bully compare with Zhou Country, the Supreme Dominator?

Regardless of honor or strength, Chu State was far inferior to Zhou Country for the former Zhou people and their descendants.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Not to mention, Lu Yuan had forcefully relocated more than one million people from Hanzhong Prefecture, causing great dissatisfaction among them.

When he was in the country, those old Zhou people were afraid of his strength and didn’t dare to do anything openly, but only engaged in small moves behind the scenes.

However, now that Lu Yuan, the most deterring figure in Chu State, was gone, the only one left in the country was Lan Cai’er.

With just one person’s energy to manage three prefectures and face the pressure from Ning Country, she could hardly manage so much.

So, within Chu State, some old Zhou and even former Yue people, influenced by foreign countries, began to create chaos at the local level.

If this trend continues unchecked, a major disaster of internal and external collusion will inevitably take place in Chu State.

And this is a situation that Lu Yuan did not want to see.

So, in order to stabilize the country and deter people’s hearts, the news of Zhou Qing’s breakthrough to Innate has now become the best remedy.”

“With one more Innate, the country should be stable for another two or three years.”

Lu Yuan muttered to himself, and then began writing a letter to convey his instructions to the country.

Hold a celebration for Zhou Qing’s breakthrough to Innate.
