The officials in the hall began to discuss again, whispering to each other.

Did Yuan Xiong's words make sense?

There was.

The purpose of this expedition was to restrain the Jing Kingdom and force them to retreat. As long as Wei Yuan destroyed the Yan Kingdom, besieged the city, and then destroyed the Kang Kingdom, who had come to rescue them, would the Jing Kingdom not retreat?

What Wei Yuan had already done was to besiege the fire country's capital.

Or, wouldn't it be better to directly launch a surprise attack on Jingguo?

However, he chose to attack Jingshan city and eventually died together with the witchcraft cult's headquarters. This was unprecedented, but it also cost the Army.

Of the eighteen thousand remaining troops, most of them had retreated from the fire Country. The number of soldiers who had survived the battle at Jingshan city was less than five thousand.

No one believed that Wei Yuan wasn't greedy.
