Du You paced back and forth, immediately giving orders: "Starting now, send out scouts for a comprehensive investigation and gather all detailed information about the enemy. This will be crucial for the upcoming war."
Suddenly, something seemed to occur to him, and he quickly asked, "What about the nobles of the Divine Flame Empire? What has been their reaction?"
"The situation at present is still uncertain or even dangerous. The nobles have not shown any significant reaction. There's a high demand domestically, but those young nobles are only forming armies and there's very little action. The few that have started moving are doing so very slowly, apparently waiting for the right opportunity."
"Hmm, waiting for the right opportunity? They're simply afraid of death. But this leaves an opening for us."
Another person spoke up from the side. Du You did not recognize him, he was presumably one of the military leaders Luo Jia had recently groomed.
