Lin Yi redecorates Leng Yu's room with modern amenities like mirrors, a dressing table, and cosmetics, providing her with a tablet loaded with makeup tutorials to keep her occupied. He then departs in an attack helicopter to survey Zhao Country in preparation for an upcoming battle.

It seems that people like us are going to be untouchable here.

This is exactly the morale of the Dayou Nation’s soldiers at this moment. When even the soldiers have such confidence, how can the war not be won?

Obviously, that is impossible. What is a war fought over?

It’s all about winning people’s hearts and boosting morale. Only when one side has high morale can they achieve absolute victory, just like the Dayou Nation’s army now, their combat power is unprecedented,

Let alone that Lin Yi does not need them to do much at this time. Even if they were truly put on the battlefield, they would absolutely be a winning army.

Besides, at this moment Lin Yi, piloting a helicopter, flew along the city wall of Shanhai Pass,

and the terrain below instantly came into his view.

Initially, there was a stretch of endless forest below, followed by a plain. After some distance, a tall city appeared, with three large characters "Suiyang City" written above it.

This must be the first line of defense for Zhao Country against us, right?

When facing Zhao Country, the first line of defense for us is Shanhai Pass, while here is their first line of defense.

Sitting in the helicopter, looking at the historically flavored city below made of wild stones, and the crowds below like ants, all looking up to the sky.

One wouldn’t need to think hard to understand that these people must be extremely shocked, wondering what on earth is in the sky?

Why does it fly?

And why does it make such a loud noise, what is this big object?

Could it have come down from the heavens?

Meanwhile, on that city, as Lin Yi had guessed, the garrison there had already been thrown into disorder, with all of them gazing up at this giant bird in the sky. Moreover, some men were hastily running down from the city towards the City Lord’s Mansion at breakneck speed.

However, when they reached the City Lord’s Mansion, they were abruptly surprised to find that the City Lord had also run out and was looking up at the sky.

Meanwhile, Lin Yi quickly discovered something unusual from the sky, and that was the sheer number of people in this city, which was absolutely no less than fifty thousand, even with a rough scan.

This is an extremely abnormal occurrence, just like Shanhai Pass before, where the garrison had at most around 3,000 men.

The same should apply here, and by logic, there should only be a few thousand garrison troops.

But now, there are as many as fifty thousand people,

This is certainly an abnormal occurrence, which also confirmed Lin Yi’s guess in his heart.

These guys must be gathering here to attack our Dayou Nation, right?

Simultaneously, that Yan Country’s vanguard force must have been meant to meet them, right?

Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but shake his head, this bunch really are nothing but delusional.

Moreover, they don’t abide by the martial spirit!

Planning on joint bullying of our Dayou Nation by two countries, if it weren’t for my ascension to the throne, I’m afraid this time Dayou might really be calculated upon,

With that blockhead Chen Shiren, it’s very likely he would fall for their trick and hence lose the entire Dayou Nation.

While it might not lead to immediate loss of the entire nation, losing certain cities would certainly not be out of the question.

Going as far as to cede lands and offer compensations, just outright ceding over a dozen cities, and it would become a laughingstock of the world.

Moreover, it would directly shrink Dayou Nation’s true strength, leading to a situation where it is not a tripartite confrontation anymore, but a two-state confrontation,

The Dayou Nation would only be a struggling entity, and any spur-of-the-moment decision by both sides could lead to them annexing all of the remaining Dayou territories.

Of course, this would have happened only if I hadn’t ascended to the throne.

But now, having successfully taken Dayou Nation, such things won’t occur.

At least by my own strength, I could resist this army of fifty thousand.

However, there is one thing that still puzzles Lin Yi, and that is at this moment, although these fifty thousand below are numerous, it’s somewhat delusional to expect them to attack Yan Country, given that the forces on this side of Yan Country are at least 100,000 troops strong.

Could this really be the entirety of Zhao Country’s forces?

Apparently not.

After circling around, using the helicopter’s specialized mapping system for cartography, Lin Yi didn’t linger and proceeded right toward the next target.

He didn’t come this time to seize any city but to conduct reconnaissance, so he didn’t engage and flew directly forward, soon his helicopter arrived over the next city.

After flying over a long stretch of wild land, Lin Yi’s eyes finally caught sight of another city.

This city, like the previous one, was ancient, but the difference was that it seemed even more rundown, and the buildings were also noticeably lower.

This is understandable because a sufficiently fortified city has already been built in the front, reducing defense installations step by step at the rear is also reasonable.

After all, constructing everything to a uniform scale would incur considerable costs.

Zhao Country probably can’t afford such expenses, right?

And upon arriving over this city, the doubts Lin Yi had earlier were instantly cleared up.

At this moment, this city was also crowded with a large gathering.

Upon preliminary inspection, there were no fewer than over 20,000 people.

This too is unusual; typically a city garrison would have at most ten to eight thousand soldiers, but here there are over 20,000, this is clearly abnormal.

Moreover, as Lin Yi was in the sky, he could clearly see that on every path behind the city, crowds were surging.

Their aim was to move into this city, and while their numbers were not large, some were just ten or so, others several dozen.

These people should be soldiers coming from all directions.

Suddenly, Lin Yi had an epiphany,

It turns out this group is still mobilizing troops!

It’s not that they don’t plan to attack Dayou Nation soon, but because their forces haven’t fully assembled yet.
