The battle at Jiming Posthouse had begun,
amidst the frantic preparations in Linjiang City, the White Lotus Army arrived two days earlier than expected, and their numbers were much greater than anticipated.
It was originally estimated that the White Lotus Army would dispatch at most fifty thousand troops.
In fact, that estimate wasn't far off, but the White Lotus Sect forcibly dragged along thirty thousand ordinary civilians, making these civilians their scapegoats, forcing them to attack the city and wear down the Jiming Posthouse defenders.
Once the battle broke out,
the defenders of Jiming Posthouse were plagued with low morale, for after all, their victims were ordinary civilians. In an instant, all of Linjiang County seemed shrouded in a layer of shadow—whether Martial World Gangs or common folk, everyone felt an unbearable weight pressing down.
Only at this moment did everyone truly realize that simply imagining could never convey the true cruelty of war.
