The Lineage visited the family graves yesterday, and the rain just would not let up. Shadow did not get home until after ten, exhausted and sleepy. He was sorry for the late update! (There were still two updates yesterday.)

He had posted a notice in the comments last night, too. (Lately, whenever something came up, he had been leaving a notice so readers would not wait for nothing.) He hoped everyone would keep an eye on the official release. No matter how many comments appeared elsewhere, Shadow could not see them. Every visit counted toward the book's popularity. Thank you!!!

"There are already signs they're giving up Chen City? Isn't that too soon? Fighting over the walls is the best way to wear down the enemy. Besides, Chen City is the capital of the Zhangchu State!"

At Lü Chen's words, Tian Dan reacted first, frowning deeply. After a pause, he added hesitantly, "The South City Wall is in danger, but its situation isn't as dire as the west and north walls. Han Xin's army is simply attacking at any cost. Could Hidden King Chen Sheng be planning to fight to the death, using the new recruits to bleed the enemy dry? After all... His Majesty once said Hidden King Chen Sheng intended to spend lives to wear the enemy down!"

"That's possible. Han Xin's army launched its assault without bringing down the South City Wall. From here on, it'll be brutal close-quarters fighting and street battles!" Long Ju pondered for a moment, then voiced his agreement.

"..."

Tian Dan was about to say more when Jian Shang raised a hand, cutting off the generals' debate.

He quickly summoned his personal status information and examined Lü Chen's profile:
