The cold gradually receded, spring warmth revived.
Braving the early morning chill, the great army meandered out on its journey.
"Time really flies."
Lu Yuan looked at the endless dragon-like procession and could not help but sigh, "In the blink of an eye, it's already the second year of the Northern Expedition, isn't it?"
Next to him, his second son, Lu Hao, couldn't appreciate the sorrow in his father's words and excitedly said, "Yes, Father Emperor, it's already the second year. This time we're fighting Liang, I must take part in the battle, you can't stop me this time."
This Northern Expedition required the mobilization of too many Inborn Grandmasters, so Lu Yuan didn't give any special treatment.
All his children, who were Inborns and willing to go to the battlefield, were brought along to experience the atmosphere of war firsthand.
The rest, who were reluctant, continued to stay within the country, distributed to various counties to defend the local areas.
