For the next few days, the Imperial City waited eagerly for the return of the soldiers from the border.
The threat that had been looming over Xin for so many years was now no longer there. It was slightly hard to believe.
However, it was true.
Their soldiers have done it.
One had to know that now including the enemy area in Xin territory, Xin was bigger than before. The thing that was most to be benefitted was that the enemy Empire didn't touch the neighboring Empire. There was a long river and then hills between the two Empires which reduced the threat of war or danger to a great extinct and the relations between that Empire and Xin were already good.
Hence, there was now no need to keep so many soldiers on the border continuously. They could keep some but the danger was visibly less.
