Some things are just so strange. In the Brunas sector of the Jade City at Northern Ridge, where things were the most chaotic, hundreds of thousands of people had already begun to relocate. Yet, in reality, nobody was prepared to fight a battle here.
On the other hand, at the quiet and eerily silent border between the Tang Country and Qi Country, where a real war was being prepared for, all trade ports were shut, and envoys from both nations had been called back. Everything seemed to have come to a standstill.
On both sides of the boundary markers, as troops and generals were being dispatched, the situation had already escalated to a do-or-die stance—even if Qi Country did not want to fight, it had become necessary to carry on with the war.
No one would complain that their trenches were too deep or too complex before a war, nor would anyone think they had too much ammunition in reserve.
