"Right now, my direct central army, the Forbidden army still has around 51,000 soldiers."
Lu Yuan was taking stock of his assets.
Fifty-one thousand men, this size was about nine thousand less than the sixty thousand at the start of the war.
A large scale war involving over 100,000 people, lasted for half a year, and only this much was lost - this was rather incredible considering the significant achievements now.
But if you look closely, the loss ratio seems quite reasonable.
Ever since defeating the Da Changhe army in Stone City, Lu Yuan's army, for the last few months has been constantly engaging the enemy without any rest.
However, the main force of Chu fighting the Da Changhe army were all surrendered Yi soldiers.
Whether it was the continuous sieges of the camp below Stone City, forcing the opposition to retreat, or the recent battle beneath Dragon City where Li Xiong took control disregarding his casualties.
