“No need for formalities.”

Zhou Lan dismounted, looked up toward the north, and her brows furrowed with worry, unlike her previously brisk and carefree demeanor.

“How is the situation?”

“I have already ordered people to investigate, but the details are unknown yet,” replied Yang Zhenshan.

Zhou Lan gazed into the distance pensively, ultimately shaking her head helplessly.

“We’ve lost!”

This defeat came too hastily, too absolutely, and was too hard to accept, yet it seemed inevitable.

She knew better than Yang Zhenshan why this battle was lost.

There were many reasons, but three main ones: first, insufficient preparation, the hasty dispatch resulted in many vulnerabilities within the army.

Second, the court’s internal strife affected the front-line commander’s decisions; Zhang Shouwang always wanted to play it safe, but the court pressured him to hasten his actions.

Third, Chongshan Town had long been in decay, the morale and combat capabilities of its soldiers were far from what they once were.

The present East Sea Hu Clan was cunning, but the past East Sea Hu Clan was also cunning, which cannot be an excuse for the defeat.
