"According to Wei Na, the spies the Heaven Dou Empire planted in the Sun Moon Empire sent back word that Xu Tianran, the Crown Prince, had left the Imperial Court. This has left several princes eager to make a move."
"Those princes now concurrently hold posts in the Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of War, and Ministry of Works. One manages provisions and military supplies, one handles the deployment of reinforcements, and one oversees engineering equipment. Though they have not openly opposed him, they have been putting plenty of obstacles in his way behind the scenes."
"If we can stall for a while longer, given how the Sun Moon Border Army has been delaying the collection of supplies and military provisions, we might be able to hold out a bit longer."
At this point, Long Ao Tian vigorously rubbed his face. Wei Na had made him memorize all of this the day before. Since she was tied up at the moment, he could only deliver the message in her stead.
"So that's how it is."
Chen Ping frowned deeply upon hearing this. The Heaven Dou Empire's situation was even worse than he had imagined.
Even with reinforcements from the Dou Ling Empire, they still could not withstand the Sun Moon Empire's Sacred F2A—an all-in commitment by the entire army. The gap in raw strength was simply too great; they could not take the beating at all.
Even with the three princes each clinging to one of Xu Tianran's arms or thighs and desperately trying to hold him back, Xu Tianran's army was still advancing at a terrifying pace. There really was no cure for that.
No, this Sun Moon Empire invasion had not brought along its rear supply corps. Food for a month-long forced march could be packed into Storage Soul
