The war came unexpectedly, yet it was anticipated.
Early winter of the thirteenth year of Kangping, a small group of Tartars conducted arson, murder, and plunder in the border villages, quickly fleeing afterwards. By the time the Border Patrol Soldiers noticed the fire and rushed to investigate, there were no survivors.
The Forensic Doctor examined the wounds of the deceased and found no traces of Tartar or Wala weapons. Although the case was ultimately classified as banditry, when the report reached Hong Sheng, Susu was also in the military camp.
Upon hearing this, she knew that what was destined to happen had finally come.
Batraj hadn't anticipated that Great Chu had a "Prophet," so when this small group of Tartars attempted another border incursion, they were caught in the act.
