Of course, the South County would not sit idly by and watch the North County's troops invade.
The previous shirking and compromise had announced the importance of the South County from the day Maas Castle fell, especially the high-ranking noble families that represented the South County.
To heavily injure the South County was to heavily injure them.
In just a few hundred years, these high-ranking noble families had been bound to the South County.
In fact, the invasion of the Silver Platter Kingdom back then was not resisted by the Grand Duke Leo. Instead, it was these high-ranking noble families who had stubbornly resisted the attack. They were unwilling to give up their strength and their families which had been completely rooted in South County.
Now, facing the noble army of the North County, the troops of the South County had finally gathered.
The 20,000 men army was neat and elite.
