Chapter 188: Plan for Flore (Part 1)
```
...
Kusler sat silently in his command tent, his mood now as bad as it could possibly be. Half a million soldiers—half a million—had returned to their own country, with only half remaining. This didn't even account for the loss of personnel, equipment, mounts, magical beasts, and siege equipment. Kusler knew all too well that without a year of recuperation and preparation, there was no hope of launching an effective attack on Sifuerte City.
As he led the army back to the Flore Kingdom, he obtained the true intelligence on Qin City.
Before the Milan Northern Corps launched its attack, Qin City had not attracted the attention of the various forces across the continent. Although Ye Yinzhu managed to repel the Milan Army with his Six Path Shattering City, Qin City's combat power was not fully exposed. Therefore, the information Kusler had was not complete.
