"The Emperor of Tang isn't wrong," Lu Yuan said.
Although Chu State looks imposing,
it might just be superficially bloated—intimidating in appearance yet not truly so.
On their side, they seem at a disadvantage, with just a corner of Yu State against most of the world.
But that's only on the surface.
What they need to confront isn't the entirety of Chu State, but rather a Chu State that is exhausted and can only muster a fraction of its strength.
The alliance of four kingdoms might not be able to defeat the entire Chu State,
but to take on a weakened half of Chu—surely that's manageable?
With this thought, their minds became much more settled after a moment's reflection.
