Perhaps it was meant as a warning, or maybe it was intended to reassure them to send aid, but the letter requesting help did not conceal the slightest detail about the current forces remaining in the Southern Gate of Tiannan. Of the fifteen thousand soldiers blessed by the spirits, less than six thousand were left at the Southern Gate of Tiannan. Along with four hundred thousand auxiliary troops and the high, Technique-imbued walls of the Southern Gate, they were barely holding off Jiangnan's assault.
There were three thousand soldiers blessed by Azland, and barely two thousand blessed soldiers capable of battle from the six nations combined, making up five thousand in total. With them, there was a ninety percent certainty that the Southern Gate could be held. However, should they choose to stab their own people in the back, and if the six thousand elite troops of the Southern Gate were to return to aid Azland... it would spell doom!
