The best way to the Great Moses Empire was to devour a country and completely absorb its resources and wealth; this was the fastest way to achieve development.
The Moses Empire is running out of time. Once the Great Liang Empire destroys the Great West Empire, it will inevitably turn its attention to the Moses Empire.
At that time, the two great empires, the Xinma Empire and the Moses Empire, will unite to attack the Moses Empire, which puts a lot of pressure on Yize.
Therefore, the only way to break the deadlock is to eliminate one of them, specifically the weaker link, and the Xinma Empire is undoubtedly the best choice.
It can both strengthen oneself and eliminate a threat, which is a win-win situation.
The army marched straight in, heading towards the Xinma Empire.
After so many years of mutual attacks, they have long been familiar with each other's positions, so attacking directly at each other's doorstep is the simplest and most direct approach.
Unbeknownst to them, a small warship was quietly drifting on the sea not far away, silently monitoring them.
Lu Kang was clearly on board the small boat.
After receiving assistance in the attack on the Great West Empire, Zhou Yu and Gan Ning landed on the Great West Empire's coastline, leaving the coastal issues to him.
"General, that's an army of over a million!" the soldier on lookout duty exclaimed in surprise.
Lu Kang's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice, " The Moses Empire has mobilized so many troops; their target must be quite significant. It seems they intend to do something big."
He had anticipated the movements of the Moses Empire, but seeing the situation before him, he was still somewhat shocked and couldn't help but become wary.
Who exactly was the target of the Moses Empire?
There are probably not many people in this sea area who could command a million troops like that; they might just be after Great Liang.
However, this direction is wrong.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Have our men intensify patrols in the surrounding waters. If anyone enters the territorial waters of my Great Liang Empire, immediately retaliate and simultaneously request reinforcements from the main force."
He currently has only about 100,000 troops at his disposal. If the enemy attacks, he will need a larger force to come and support him.
It would be somewhat disheartening to retreat like this.
Our warships are more advanced, so we can launch a surprise attack on the enemy, making it impossible for them to catch up, and we could even severely damage them.
However, he eventually dismissed the idea, since his current task was to guard against the enemy and prevent them from entering his territory.
In this way, there's no need for me to create unnecessary trouble.
However, the movements of the Moses Empire are somewhat puzzling and must be clarified.
On a whim, he sent a small boat to follow them, keeping a distance to their final destination. After doing this, he sent another small boat back to report.
This matter is of utmost importance and must be reported to the Emperor so that he can weigh the issues involved.
If necessary, Zhou Yu and Gan Ning should also return; perhaps they could launch a surprise attack on the Moses Empire.
The joys and sorrows of this world are not the same. While the Moses Empire was aggressively marching towards the Xinma Empire, there was a poor fellow being beaten.
That was the Great West Empire.
Faced with the raging situation, the Great West Empire was having a very difficult time. Although Abaddon mobilized the entire nation's military forces and a large amount of civilian labor, the situation still tilted in favor of the Great Liang Empire.
Therefore, Abaddon had to personally command the battle on the front lines, but looking at the densely packed Great Liang army ahead, his heart sank.
He couldn't help but exclaim, "The situation is not good."
In this situation, having no allies left, turning the tide is virtually impossible.
"Your Majesty, not only has the Great Liang attacked us, but the Frostwest Empire, after siding with the Great Liang, has also turned its guns on us."
"The Aksu are even more ferocious, seemingly fearless, charging wildly and putting immense pressure on our front lines," Delin reported with a bitter expression.
Aksu!!!
Upon hearing this, Abaddon's face turned extremely ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "That dog Aksu, he didn't dare to confront Great Liang back then and surrendered directly. He's nothing but a cowardly and fierce beast."
Now he's working so hard, it's just to curry favor with his new master.
"He's really giving him too much credit. How dare he act so presumptuously on the territory of my Great West Empire! If it were any other time, I would definitely teach him a lesson."
Who would have thought that such a good-for-nothing who surrendered so easily would dare to shit on my head? This is simply intolerable.
However, the addition of the Frostwest Empire did have a significant impact, given that the Frostwest Empire already possessed a considerable army.
Although they cannot defeat the Great Liang Empire, they still pose a significant threat to our own people.
He asked in a deep voice, "How is the Frostwest Empire now? Is Ashina Tiandu alive?"
"Your Majesty, we have received the latest news that Ashina Tiandu already been escorted to the capital of Great Liang, and his fate is probably grim." Delin from the intelligence department said with a bitter expression.
Why!
Abaddon's face stiffened; he had ultimately misplaced his trust.
If I had known this guy was so weak, I should have just defected to Great Liang in the first place. Now that things have turned out this way, I'm probably in grave danger.
Now look what's happened! My former ally has turned against me. It's so incredibly frustrating.
However, this also raises a problem: Ashina Tiandu was Lin Yi's relative, was in grave danger that day, then he himself was probably doomed.
But regret is useless now; the Great Liang Empire will still destroy us. I must find a way, or I will become the next Ashina Tiandu.
He took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Where is the Moses Empire? Where did that bastard Abide Leier go?"
The only savior now is the Moses Empire. If this empire, which is about the same strength as the Great Liang, intervenes, then there is still a glimmer of hope for survival.
If the Moses Empire wanted to attack the Great Liang Empire, it would likely prioritize its own survival, since the Great Liang Empire would be completely unrestrained if it were destroyed.
Unless the other side is stupid, they shouldn't let Great Liang unify this continent, since Great Liang's strength will be much greater by then.
Delin sighed, his voice bitter. "There's still no news of Abide Leier. He's clearly hiding because he's worried about being found by Great Liang."
"As for the Moses Empire, they are probably in dire straits themselves. According to reports, the Da Liu Empire and the Xinma Empire have made contact, and the two sides are preparing to launch a joint attack on the Moses Empire."
