The cultivator army had only one task: conquer cities and seize territory. The captured cities would then be guarded by the support troops.

Thus, the armies participating in the destruction of the six states numbered a full six hundred thousand. Though there were only sixty thousand cultivators among them, those sixty thousand were comparable to six million troops—or perhaps even more terrifying!
