Beiyuan City, outer frontline.
The troops of Shenwu had been holding out for many days, and as a result, their losses were devastating. The forces stationed in the positions had been replaced several times, with new soldiers transported from Shenwu arriving daily, continuously being unloaded at the port of Beiyuan City.
Originally, Shenwu had planned to commit around 200,000 troops to Beiyuan City, but now they had already sent at least 300,000 troops there.
The war still saw no sign of ending. The Tang Army simply ignored Shenwu's cries for negotiation, not even receiving envoys bearing white flags.
Moreover, the new weapons deployed by the Tang Army on the battlefield were increasingly dreaded by Shenwu's defenders. Planes and tanks were considered polite compared to those confusing and bizarre things that suddenly appeared and had never been seen before, always causing headaches for Shenwu soldiers.
