”What is it!?”

Seeing that the soldier was rushing with sweat all over, Qin Tian instantly had a bad premonition and asked in a low voice.

The soldier stepped forward, knelt on the ground, and presented a military intelligence report, saying, ”Lord Qin, the West Capital was attacked, with heavy casualties!”

Swish!

Upon hearing this, the faces of Qin Tian and his companions all changed.

Zhou Yang frowned and asked loudly, ”What did you say?!”

As he spoke, he had already taken the military report and handed it to Qin Tian.

The group stood together to read.

The military report was sent urgently by Xu Kuan.

It turned out that the West Capital was indeed attacked by the War God!

Xu Kuan briefly described the process of the elite Black Hawk Army’s raid on the West Capital, which was entirely as Zhou Yang had feared.

The War God left forty thousand men at Yueya City in a deceptive move, setting up camps as if for a hundred thousand soldiers, so Che Aijun at Yueya City did not notice anything unusual.

Meanwhile, the War God personally led fifty thousand soldiers across the river and, after two days and nights, reached the southeast of the West Capital, launching a blitzkrieg attack directly on the most vulnerable part of the city’s defenses after the successful river crossing!

The War God’s True Qi Cannon unit had ten True Qi Cannons, which all opened fire ferociously, bombarding the West Gate of the West Capital!

This move was completely unexpected by Xu Kuan, who thought the West Gate was his rear and unlikely to be attacked, thus it was less defended.

Although the fortifications were well built, they couldn’t withstand the simultaneous barrage from ten True Qi Cannons, coupled with the War God’s elite generals, the so-called ”Four Heavenly Kings” with the War God personally acting, within half a day, the West Capital was directly breached by the War God!

Xu Kuan fought with all his strength, utilizing the good fortifications, managed to hold off for half a day, even to the War God’s surprise.

But surprise could not save the loss of the West Capital, Xu Kuan fought while retreating, sending a signal for help to Che Aijun, who immediately led fifty thousand troops to reinforce the West Capital.

However, on the way to reinforce, they were ambushed by a pre-placed ten thousand-troop unit of the War God!

The War God’s ten-thousand-strong Black Hawk Army, well-trained, had combat power several levels higher than Che Aijun’s units. Che Aijun resisted desperately but couldn’t continue to reinforce the West Capital, only able to retreat with his troops back to Yueya City.

Xu Kuan wrote this military report to request reinforcement.

After reading it, Qin Tian’s face changed dramatically—

This report was forwarded to Qin Tian by Zuo Yuanhao, who first received it at the Eastern Border of the Demon Clan, and after reading it, wrote an accompanying report to Qin Tian, saying he had already led his troops to intercept, and that the West State, it seemed, was lost!

”This report is probably from two days ago, who knows what the situation is now? Alas, we were careless!”

Qin Tian lamented with regret, he hadn’t expected that just such a small weakness in the West Capital could be exploited by the War God to launch such a sharp attack.

”Damn, this War God really did it! He burned his boats to attack the West Capital, and he actually succeeded! Damn!”

Little Zhuang was a bit angry, gritting his teeth and shaking his head.

”Taking a risky move, the War God deeply understands the essence of military tactics, no wonder, he dared to directly attack the West Capital with a hundred thousand elite troops!”

Zhou Yang sighed, ”I felt it was already a bit late when I reacted... indeed, I never thought the War God would personally lead a surprise attack, deploying fifty thousand against ninety thousand defenders, with no room for retreat, perhaps only the War God in this world could pull off something this insane!”

”If I had known, I should have listened to Old Zhou and Zuo Yuanhao’s suggestions and directly abandoned the West State, now it may result in incalculable consequences!” Little Zhuang took a deep breath, ”This is the first time we’ve encountered such a defeat, Woxin!”

Qin Tian said sternly, ”It’s no use saying anything now, since we chose to let Xu Kuan and Ye Kun give it a try, we must bear the consequences.”

”On the battlefield, winners are kings and losers are outcasts, any other remarks are just Monday-morning quarterbacking. What I am worried about now is their withdrawal...”

Qin Tian’s words tightened everyone’s nerves.

In the West Capital, besides Xu Kuan and the others’ families, Murong Fei, Fan Bing, and Qiao Wenxuan are still there!

”There can’t be any mistakes in this matter, no, I must go immediately to intercept!”

Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Tian said, ”Everyone, get ready, all forces, mobilize, to the Eastern Border of the Demon Clan!”

Immediately, Qin Tian went to explain the situation to Liu Fei’er, who, upon learning of it, was also in a panic, put down all her pressing matters, and decided to personally lead twenty thousand of the Demon Clan to follow Qin Tian to rescue Fan Bing and others!

Qin Tian said nothing more, and his twelve thousand men set off immediately, bypassing the Myriad Demon Mountain Range in three days, arriving at the border town of Great Witch Town, where the Demon Clan borders the West State.

On the march, Qin Tian received bad news continuously.

First, Che Aijun, stationed at Yueya City, was besieged by the Black Hawk Army, and unable to resist, he led his soldiers to retreat westward, intending to join Xu Kuan and his men.

During the fighting retreat, Che Aijun’s ten thousand men were reduced to just over six thousand.

Then, after ordering the troops to hold the West Capital, Xu Kuan and Ye Kun, despite the War God’s half-day capture of the West City Gate, took two and a half days to take the entire West Capital!

This timeframe even made the War God feel bewildered, exclaiming, ”The West State Army, formidable combat power, unforeseen by me!”

”That ever-defeated General Xu Kuan, such strong defense, unforeseen by me either!”

The defense of the West Capital was a chaotic melee at close quarters.

In the end, the War God reluctantly took the West Capital after losing over ten thousand men.

Meanwhile, Xu Kuan’s side, having had nine thousand initially, was reduced to just over five thousand at withdrawal, suffering heavy casualties!

The two most crucial cities of the West State were all captured by the War God within three days.

And Che Aijun’s and Xu Kuan’s troops could only move northward, knowing it was impossible to retake the West Capital now, with the West State lost, they could only withdraw into the Demon Clan’s territory to the west.

The War God’s casualties from the battle were initially assumed to be heavy as well, and after joining forces, Che Aijun and Xu Kun still had about twelve thousand, the War God shouldn’t pursue.

But the War God did not pursue, the Fourth Prince did!

The Fourth Prince didn’t personally lead the chase but had the newly appointed Lord of the North State, Li Muyang, lead fifteen thousand troops south, preparing to attack from north and south with the War God, aiming to annihilate Xu Kuan’s force entirely within the West State!

A day later, Qin Tian just received a report from Zuo Yuanhao, who had already personally led troops to intercept.

And knowing the Fourth Prince’s intent to exterminate them, Qin Tian was even more furious: ”Fourth Prince, you’re really ruthless! Wait, for today’s enmity, I will make you pay tenfold another day!”
