Chapter 964 - Make an Inventory

10th month, 20th day, Great Xia Dynasty announced their overall plan for Beijiang Province to the public.

The moment the news came out, it caused a lot of conjectures.

Great Xia established a province and built a formation, and their intentions of laying root in the north were revealed to the public. Thinking back to the Handan City Army leaving Zhangwu Prefecture, it left a lot of room for imagination.

"Has Great Xia started to plan to attack the foundation of the Yanhuang Alliance?" Just thinking about it made players really excited.

Some people even boldly predicted, "Maybe the China region will give birth to a unified empire."

Whether Great Xia could be like Great Qin, wiping out six countries and unifying the nation, was still to be seen.

However, there was one thing that was for certain - the strength of Great Xia.

All of a sudden, more and more players applied to move to Great Xia, especially players from Dali, Qianzhou, and Chengdu.

The Great Xia population welcomed a new round of explosion. Preliminary estimations had it at around three to four million adventure gamemode players migrating over.

The three provinces that were just taken down desperately needed this new batch of players.

10th month, 22nd day, along with Caiyun City surrendering and Pill Sun City retreating, the Xiangnan Province situation was settled. Han Xin led the Leopard Legion Corps to meet up with Li Mu's army in Changsha Prefecture.

These two God Generals had an encounter in Guiping Pass. Seeing one another, they naturally felt complicated.

Especially Li Mu; he felt delighted that he was going to get a big position in Great Xia. At the same time, he was worried about whether the army would accept him or not. At the very least, the mountain barbarian soldiers would feel a divide with him.

During the first Guiping Pass battle, the mountain barbarians had suffered heavy casualties. Who knows how many of them were sacrificed in that battle? However, as he was working for a different Lord, they could not blame Li Mu.

As the Leopard Legion Corps marshal, Han Xin's magnanimity and experience was much different from normal mountain barbarians. Naturally, he knew that the king held Li Mu in high regards, so he would help to remove this barrier and help him merge into the Great Xia Army system.

During this meeting of the two God Generals, the atmosphere was really friendly. 

10th month, 25th day, Chuanbei Province was settled.

Ma Chao and Zhang Xutuo's legions split into two. With the directions of the West Gate family and the support of the other territories under Great Xia, they took down city after city.

With someone leading the way, anywhere the army went saw the defending troops lose hope.

Especially after Caiyun City surrendered and Pill Sun City's army left; that was when the remaining few Lords that defended stubbornly felt despair. They knew that the Yanhuang Alliance had no ability to help anymore.

Hence, more and more of them decided to surrender.

In less than half a month, most of Chuanbei Province fell under Great Xia's rule.

As the war went too smoothly, the Great Xia Army could not do a military cleansing of the province. There were many unwilling people amongst those who surrendered, leaving behind a huge problem for future rule.

Whether it was a boon or a bane, one could only know in time.

On the same day, Luo Shixin and Xiao Chaogui's legions, along with the 60 thousand Qiang army, proceeded swiftly and suddenly appeared on the west of Hanzhong Prefecture, catching the enemy off guard.

On the west of the prefecture was Hongyuan City.

That afternoon, one-third of the territories in Hanzhong Prefecture had fallen.

On the 27th day, Min City in the middle fell too. Getting the news, the remaining Lord in the east - Qingqing Xiaofeng - did not try any useless resistance and chose to surrender.

At this time, even if he sought protection from the Shu Han Dynasty, they could not make it here in time, as it would take two to three days to get here from Chengdu.

Hence, in only three days, Hanzhong Prefecture fell. During the entire battle proceeding, the neighboring Fallen Leaf City did not show any signs of interfering.

That was because Great Xia was terrifyingly strong after taking down three new provinces. Wandering Magic obviously did not dare to think about doing anything. He was afraid Great Xia would use it as an excuse to attack Fallen Leaf City.

If that happened, he would lose it all for nothing in return.

Successive defeats in battle placed the Yanhuang Alliance in a really bleak situation.

Along with Hanzhong Prefecture being taken down, the entire southwest battlefield came to a stop. Getting the news, Fallen Phoenix City and West Chu stopped the standstill at the border.

Lu Bu's legion that was sent over to Stone City had returned to Shanhai City a day ago.

At this point, a battle that lasted for two months and affected the history of the entire wilderness came to an end.

The moment the battle ended, the various media outlets did a summary of the entire battle.

Without a doubt, the end result was a huge loss for the Yanhuang Alliance. Not only did they fail to save Swordsman City, but they even lost 150 thousand elite troops in the process.

Not only did Handan City lose half a Zhangwu Prefecture, but a strong neighbor had even risen beside it.

As they say, 'How would one be able to sleep soundly beside a wall that might collapse?' With Great Xia's arrangement in Beijiang Province, Handan City was unable to remove this chess piece. Although Di Chen felt really uncomfortable, he had no choice.

News spread that the day Great Xia announced their plan of Beijiang Province, Di Chen locked himself in his room and spent a whole day in there for self-reflection.

The next morning, he gathered his officials and generals to announce a military expansion plan. He did this to recruit troops to fill up the current shortfall.

Pill Sun City's attack on Xiangnan Province saw them not only fail to gain anything, but it even exposed the internal weakness of Pill Sun City instead.

Nice to see but not nice to use.

At the same time that Handan City announced their plan to expand their military, Pill Sun City, King City, Blood Red City, Fallen Leaf City, and Asura City all announced that they also going to expand their military.

All the members of the Yanhuang Alliance realized that if they did not take the chance that Great Xia was digesting its food to expand their army, the Yanhuang Alliance would face problems once this beast got hungry once more.

Hence, the five families had to use all their strength and relationships to recruit players to their territories to make up for the population shortfall.

On this point, Wandering Magic was in an awkward spot.

 Fallen Leaf City was about to face the direct threat of Great Xia, but it did not have the ability to recruit large amounts of players. Even if they did, Wandering Magic and his squad did not have the ability to manage them.

In the end, Wandering Magic could only enlist from his people, reducing the ratio of people to army to 1:9, causing a huge problem for the future development of the city.

Di Chen and the others had a clear idea. Since the territory could not be expanded, they needed to expand their army without affected the territory running. Even if they went all out on the military expansion, they would only be eating away at their current territory population.

The current wilderness had enough space, and each piece of land had a huge amount of potential waiting to be unleashed.

All the Yanhuang Alliance needed to do was dig out all this potential. Since they could not win against Great Xia in size, they needed to win in terms of quality.

This was one of the results of the battle. The seismic battle did not truly end with both sides stopping the war, and the aftereffects would deeply affect the situation in the China region.

In this battle, the Yanhuang Alliance was not the only unlucky ones.

Chuanbei City-State and Xiangnan City-State that flirted with the Yanhuang Alliance were now up in flames. Both of their leaders had surrendered to Great Xia.

The prosperous era of City-States had come to an end.

Caiyun Zinan, who had just joined the Yanhuang Alliance camp, surrendered to Great Xia. He was deemed as a Lord with no pride, becoming one of the humiliated people in history.

The four Lords of Dali Prefecture took the money of the Yanhuang Alliance but were unable to complete the job. Naturally, they all ended up dying, and their territories were destroyed.

Xiao Alliance had changed flags, and the biggest dark horse, the Xiao Family, had left the scene and once again secluded themselves. They were licking their wounds in silence.

The Shu Han Dynasty wanted to interfere in the battle, but they ended up having a free holiday. To make matters worse, along with the four prefectures of the Shu Lands being taken down, Chengdu was now surrounded.

The current Shu Han Dynasty had become a trapped bird. With Great Xia's strength and the animosity between the two, everyone could foresee the destruction of the Shu Han Dynasty.

Be it players or natives, they all started to leave Chengdu. The ambitious Liu Bei not only could not unify the Shu Lands, but he was even in a terrible situation now.

The Dali Imperial Court was instigated to interfere in the Great Xia battle, and they were instantly on the receiving end of some revenge activity. The entire Dali Prefecture was now flat lands and empty wilderness. They foundations of Dali were destroyed.

There were those who lost and some others who won.

Not to mention the Great Xia that had achieved a great victory. Not only did they unify the southwest region of China, but they had also started to reach into the center.

With that, Great Xia was now totally connected to the Yanhuang Alliance.

Players could predict that in the future, these two giants would have an even more intense conflict. 80% of the players favored Great Xia, and they were losing confidence in the Yanhuang Alliance that was getting weaker by the day.

Apart from the Great Xia Dynasty, West Gate Big Official and his family became the greatest beneficiaries.

Him choosing sides at the key moment changed the southwest battle and quickened Great Xia's take down of the two provinces.

Although the outside world envied them, they were also impressed by West Gate Big Official's decisiveness.

Some people said that West Gate Big Official was a gambler, making a correct bet at the key moment and earning a key victory for his family as a result.
