People from the Land of the Far West!
By today, the officials of Frostwest have a general understanding of the situation in the Land of the Far West. They are a group of bandits who plunder other regions, and they do so with great force.
If Xue Rengui's Great Tang and the newly emerged Great Han both originated from the Land of the Far West, then that would be a huge problem.
However, this also makes sense of many things that were previously inexplicable.
For example, the Black Skull Army was defeated by the nameless Great Han. It should be noted that the Black Skull Army was originally formed by the Land of the Far West, so naturally they could not defeat their opponent now.
This could also explain why they all came for Frostwest.
Besides the Great West Empire, the Frostwest Empire is the richest in the West, so it would be strange if these bastards didn't come.
It's probably eight or nine out of ten!
Suddenly, everyone felt immense pressure. These two bandits had arrived, and who knew if a Great Hua would follow them?
This is a big problem.
Ashley's expression changed for the first time, and he said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, besides contacting the Great Han, we also need to communicate with the Great West Empire. We might be facing a full-scale attack from the Land of the Far West!"
First it was Abide Leier, and now the Great Tang and Great Han have arrived. It's clear that people from the Land of the Far West have already come after hearing the news, and our continent has been exposed.
If these two forces truly originate from the Land of the Far West, then we must be prepared to respond.
Now, we not only need to ascertain the attitude and strength of the Great Han, but also need to communicate with the Great West Empire. Otherwise, we will be gradually eroded by the Land of the Far West, and that would be the end of us.
"Indeed, this matter is not solely the concern of my Frostwest Kingdom!"
Ashina Tiandu nodded in agreement. Indeed, the Great West Empire needed to share the blame for this matter; otherwise, the Frostwest Empire's fate would be dire.
He took a deep breath, looked at Ashley, and nodded, saying, "Minister, send someone to make contact with the Great Han. If possible, try to befriend them!"
He belongs to the moderate faction; using him to communicate with the Great Han would be much more reliable.
"Your subject obeys!" Ashley did not refuse and accepted the task directly.
He and Frostwest were bound together by fate. If Frostwest were to perish, his life would be far from easy; he might even be robbed of everything by the Land of the Far West.
Ashina Tiandu then looked at Aksu and said in a deep voice, "Minister of War, you have had many dealings with Abaddon, so this time you will be the one to contact him."
Although that Great Han is on our border, he's also on their border. If Great Han joins forces with Abide, he'll have to think twice!
I'm not feeling well, so don't even think about standing by and watching.
"No problem!"
Aksu nodded and accepted the task.
Ashina Tiandu moment and then spoke again, "Also, inform Great Liang that he is going to deal with the Land of the Far West, so let Xue Rengui let him know."
Stop focusing on my Frostwest border; there are outsiders here too!
Great Liang!
Upon hearing the emperor's words, everyone's eyes lit up. This was a brilliant idea—to drag Great Liang into this mess!
"Your Majesty is truly brilliant!"
I must say, this is definitely a good idea.
Not only is the Great Liang Dynasty powerful, but it also likes to cause trouble everywhere. Sending it to the Land of the Far West is an excellent opportunity.
However, it can alleviate pressure on the border and also strike at the Land of the Far West, killing two birds with one stone.
Just as he was about to end the meeting, someone suddenly burst in from outside.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened in the Northwest!" the messenger exclaimed hastily, disregarding all formalities.
"What, the Northwest?"
Before Bill IV could react, Aksu jumped up; his eldest son was still there!
He grabbed the man and demanded sharply, "Speak quickly, what happened in the Northwest?"
The newcomer was startled by Aksu's fierceness and whispered, "Smoke signals have been lit in the Northwest. According to the intelligence, the Black Skull Army is coming!"
" Black Skull Army?"
Upon hearing this name, everyone couldn't help but shout it out, looking at the newcomer with strange expressions.
Weren't the Black Skull Army wiped out by the Great Han? How come they've returned?
Ashina Tiandu, angrily saying, "Nonsense! Wasn't the Black Skull Army wiped out? How could they still be attacking Great Jade River?"
The deputy envoy was his confidant and would never lie to him, so it could only be that this kid was lying to him.
"Your Majesty, but news from the front lines is that the Black Skull Army is attacking Great Jade River, and they number around 200,000. It's said that reinforcements are coming!" The guard felt wronged, as he hadn't made anything up.
"What? Two hundred thousand Black Skull Army?"
Ashina Tiandu; there was a big problem here. The two pieces of information differed greatly, and there must be something fishy going on.
He summoned the messenger from the Northwest, and the news he received was exactly as the guard had said. This made him ponder deeply what was going on.
The Black Skull Army is still here, but what about the Great Han?
Xue Rengui was, after all, a powerful ruler; he would never lie to himself, since such a lie would be easily exposed.
But if the Great Han wiped out the Black Skull Army Black Skull Army, how come they reappear here?
For a moment, he was completely overwhelmed!
At this moment, Ashley realized something and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, the Black Skull Army has nearly 400,000 men. They usually plunder by sending out all 400,000 of them, relying on sheer numbers to plunder our northwestern region."
"Now there are only 200,000 left. It's probably not that they don't want to send them all out, but that the remaining 200,000 have already been annihilated."
Have they been annihilated?
These words caused an uproar among the crowd. What did they mean?
At this moment Ashina Tiandu realized what was happening and exclaimed, "You mean the Black Skull Army was indeed wiped out, and the remaining 200,000 Black Skull Army were prisoners of the Great Han? That means the Great Han has already begun its attack on us?"
Grass!
If that's the case, it's definitely not good news; it could even be the worst news.
If the Black Skull Army of 200,000 is attacking Great Jade River, then where is the Great Han army that annihilated the Black Skull Army? Doesn't that mean Great Jade River is facing an army of nearly 500,000?
Aksu realized what was happening and felt a chill run down his spine.
If that were the case, wouldn't his eldest son be doomed? Not only would he lose his 200,000 troops, but he might also lose his life.
The fact that the Great Han could sweep through the Black Skull Army speaks volumes about his combat prowess.
Now that there are still 200,000 Black Skull Army suicide squad members, they are absolutely even more unscrupulous. If I'm not careful, my son will probably only be able to die a glorious death in battle.
He disregarded propriety and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, Great Jade River absolutely cannot be lost, otherwise our Northwest will surely fall. We need reinforcements for the Great Jade River!"
"That's right, we can't lose the Northwest!" Ashley, unusually, didn't disagree with him and supported him.
Once someone breaks in, it could trigger a chain reaction with unimaginable consequences.
