Kublai Khan and his brothers successfully divided their inheritance.
They established the Four Khanates!
Since Kublai Khan was the legitimate successor Genghis Khan had explicitly named, the nation founded from the lands and people he inherited...
Received all the glory Genghis Khan had amassed throughout his life.
The name "Mongol Empire"!
Afterward, Kublai Khan brought his finest troops to the walls of Xiangyang City.
This was the city his father had most desperately wanted to conquer before his death!
But this vast city had walls over thirty meters tall and enough grain within to feed its four hundred thousand soldiers and civilians for two years!
It was like a Maginot Line of this age!
Most importantly, there was no route around this Maginot Line!
It was surrounded by mountains with exceptionally unforgiving terrain!
If he led a great army through them, setting aside whether Great Song's troops would discover them...
The real problem was that the grain supplies simply could not keep pace with the army!
An army without grain was like a swarm of insects without souls!
Even if the Mongol army managed to enter Great Song's territory by luck, its exhausted troops would be powerless against Great Song's finest force, the Western Army!
Kublai Khan, who had followed Genghis Khan into battle since childhood, understood this perfectly!
Until...
"Hm? What happened?"
Xu Tong, who was meditating in the void, suddenly looked startled. Around him, the many Sages, including the Three Ancestors of the Human Race, wore the same expression!
"Just now... the Human Path seemed to suddenly grow far stronger!"
Even Zhunti, Amitabha, wondered whether his senses had deceived him.
"A leap of this magnitude only occurred in the power of the Heavenly Dao when they attained Sagehood. Now it has actually appeared in the Human Path?"
