It started with just fifty thousand men on horses at the front of the line dressed in blue armor uniform and a Leilani sigil attached to it - the same type of uniform as they wore under Yishen's ruling days. Then another fifty thousand more joined them on foot, they together made a lock of the passage and were ready for attack. Yushu was amongst the first fifty men for he wanted to be victorious and be a fighting King, he was guarded by loyal trusted generals who amongst them was Shuyu. They were ready and only waiting for us to get out of the city and make an impression.
The rules of the war were clear, two best men from each sides fight to death and the losing side will have to retreat fifteen to thirty steps backwards and allow the winning side to start the war. King Yushu was sure of winning and getting the upper hand since he had Shuyu on his side, one amongst the greatest warriors on the land, everytime he would pull in Shuyu and whisper "Do you need anything?"
