Chapter 940
The Empire has been at war with the Rong Clan for a long time, and generally speaking, they have suffered more losses than victories, with few triumphs.
The reason for this is that the Imperial Army feared the Rong to the point of avoiding direct confrontation, opting instead to hold fast within their fortresses.
By doing so, they effectively handed the initiative over to the Rong Clan—without supplies or reinforcements. They merely huddled in their shells, waiting for the Rong to attack.
As the saying goes, a prolonged defense inevitably leads to defeat. With years of experience in warfare, the Rong had accumulated some knowledge in siegecraft. Under these circumstances, few of the Empire's fortresses could withstand the fierce assaults of the Rong.
Li Xingzai would not repeat the mistakes of the Northern Lords, this time, he would not so readily surrender the initiative to the enemy.
