The capital of the Moses Empire was called Kunsi City, named after the wife of the Moses Empire.

During a difficult battle, Kunsi shielded her husband Moshili Chaer, from arrows, ultimately dying from multiple arrow wounds herself.

This caused Emperor Moshili immense grief, so he built the Kunsi Imperial City to commemorate his wife.

This place has always been a peaceful and sacred place, but now it is filled with restlessness and anger. The streets are full of angry crowds, clearly dissatisfied with the country's setbacks.

Although the Moses Empire was only recently established, it was already a superpower in the West. Now, it was facing such a serious challenge, which dealt a blow to their self-esteem.

This must be retaliated against, or we will not let it go.

To resolve this matter, Emperor Moshili personally convened a parliament to begin addressing the problems of this Eastern empire.

The elders of the Council of Elders were all present, their eyes blazing with anger; clearly, they were displeased.

As the highest interest group in the Moses Empire, those present here are all high-ranking leaders of the Moses Empire, so for them, these losses are undoubtedly the greatest.

The Moses Empire is now relatively stable, and profits are being transferred back in an orderly manner. This translates to countless sums of money for them. If things continue to drag on like this, the losses will be astronomical.

"Gentlemen, this is no small matter. If we do not retaliate, we will be ridiculed and despised by the All Under Heaven."

"That's right. Several colonies have rebelled before, because they felt we were finished."

"Because of the disruption of one air route, this month's profits have plummeted by 30%. If this continues, the losses will be enormous, and I can't tolerate it."

"Moreover, it is said that since the rise of the Great Liang, it has been very powerful. It has been expanding wildly in the east and is said to be close to unifying the entire continent. Once they complete the unification, they will inevitably attack us."

"Instead of letting them make the first move, we should strike first and catch them off guard before they fully agree."

After each of them had offered their opinions, they finally turned their gaze to Emperor Moshili on the throne.

As someone who built an empire, Moshili Chaer was no ordinary person. He saw the threat posed by the Great Liang and its significant impact on his own country.

Now, not only are those colonies showing signs of resistance, but even the suppressed forces within his own country are experiencing a backlash, which is something he absolutely does not want to see.

However, he remained relatively calm and did not make a decision immediately. Instead, he looked towards the intelligence department on the side.

Blindly engaging in war is dangerous, and facing a powerful nation that may be of equal strength is even more foolish.

" Ashan, how's the intelligence gathering on Great Liang going? Just how strong are they?" Chaer asked in a deep voice.

Ashan nodded slightly, his expression solemn, and said, "Your Majesty, the Great Liang has already defeated almost all the countries in the East. Only the Frostwest Empire and the Great West Empire are still resisting. As for the other countries, they have been defeated by their allies."

The enemy's cavalry was extremely strong. The Great Liang used its powerful shock capability to almost completely rout the Frostwest Empire, and Abide Leier was forced to retreat into the shadows.

It probably won't be long before the Great Liang unifies the entire continent.

Hiss hiss hiss!!!

Upon hearing this introduction, everyone gasped in astonishment. They hadn't expected the Great Liang to be so powerful, almost unifying the entire continent. That was truly remarkable.

Even the Moses Empire still has several enemies on this continent, yet the Great Liang is on the verge of unifying the All Under Heaven —that's incredibly powerful.

The opponent's strength may be greater than they imagined.

The only good news is probably that the enemy's cavalry, no matter how powerful, cannot cross the sea to reach them.

Chaer frowned slightly; this was definitely not good news.

The opponent, capable of unifying the entire continent, is by no means a pushover; rather, he is a formidable adversary of equal strength.

He said in a deep voice, "And what about their navy?"

Forehead.

Ashan was caught off guard. After hesitating for a moment, he awkwardly said, "The situation is currently unclear. Our people are attacked without warning whenever they get close to their territory, so there isn't much information available at the moment."

"Hateful."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned grim. They still hadn't figured out the other party's strength, which was undoubtedly the worst possible outcome.

Is the Moses Empire destined to drag on like this?

If that's the case, then it's completely over. When will it ever end?

Chaer shook his head, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "The opponent's strength may not seem to have been revealed, but in reality, it has already been."

What does this mean?

"Our military strength can be considered top-notch, but the fact that our spies couldn't find out anything about them speaks volumes."

Their strength is extremely formidable; they have essentially taken control of that area of the sea.

The expressions on everyone's faces immediately turned extremely grim. Although His Majesty's words were all speculation, upon closer examination, they did make some sense.

If the naval forces of Great Liang were not strong, they would not have been able to eliminate their own spies. The fact that the other side did so can only mean that they have reached that scale.

This is bad news.

Chief Elder Amu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Where is Abide Leier? Has any news come back?"

" Abide Leier was attacked by the Great Liang army and has been forced to retreat into hiding. Previous reports indicated that Great Liang has a military strength of over four million, making them extremely powerful. They also possess a terrifying weapon capable of destroying cities," Ashan explained.

Damn it.

Upon hearing this news, everyone fell silent. They had thought there might be some good news, but it was like a bolt from the blue.

With an army of four million, if the Moses Empire wanted to take revenge, it would have to deploy a corresponding army to contend with them. After all, the two sides were evenly matched nations, and there was no way for them to perform exceptionally well.

Only by bullying children can you outnumber them; you obviously can't use that method on Great Liang, that would be suicide.

"Your Majesty, what do we do now? Are we really going to swallow this insult?"

"I can't stand it. This is simply outrageous! My 300,000-strong army is gone just like that. If there's no explanation, how can my Abide Family maintain its standing?" Abide Xisi, the head of the Abide Family, said through gritted teeth.

He was responsible for almost all the losses this time, and he couldn't accept simply letting it go.
