Tan You nodded. "That's exactly right. Now that cities like Yunzhou State officially belong to the Beirong, this is the best time for us to make our move. Even if the imperial court wanted to suppress us, they would have no legitimate reason to do so."
Everyone nodded and dispersed to make their preparations for battle.
The peace talks ended, and the delegation returned to the capital. Meanwhile, the Beirong sounded the horns for a full-scale invasion. They had already occupied Youzhou State, and Lin State fell to them as a matter of course. Their first target was Yunzhou State.
An Wen was now a Scout in the guard unit, tasked with keeping a constant watch on the Beirong's movements. Around noon that day, he rushed to report to Tan You, "My Lady, the Beirong are attacking."
Tan You had, of course, already seen the alert from her Beauty System, but she didn't want to dampen An Wen's enthusiasm. She set down her book. "I know. Go inform Yue Shu. It's time for us to act."
