Following the military order, they began setting up formations and lining up troops here.
Opposite to the Chu army, the already prepared Nanzhao Army also had pairs of soldiers marching out of the camp, lining up the troops, and confronting the arriving Chu army.
Lu Yuan led forty thousand troops in this march northwards, with the procession stretching nearly ten miles. The sheer magnitude of it was causing dust to obscure the sky, and it was impossible to conceal these marching troops.
But Lu Yuan did not intend to hide them either.
He wanted to lead this formidable army openly against the Nanzhao troops and defeat them with absolute strength.
As Mo Nianfeng had thought, the highly-skilled Chu army could easily defeat the small Nanzhao army.
Lu Yuan had absolute faith in this statement.
He believed that the mighty army he had built while farming and warring over the past 20 years should be able to defeat even a small Southwestern Yi army.
