The Qin Country issued a public statement, declaring that their frontline troops' use of landmines was not ordered by the higher-ups, and they were "voluntary."
This statement was feeble, but it used a large amount of space to condemn the Great Tang Empire for its missile attacks on cities. They accused the Great Tang Empire of using missiles to attack the capital city of Qin Country, Wuyang, causing numerous civilian casualties.
However, such condemnation was of no real use, as the Great Tang Empire was unlikely to change its combat plans because of it.
The missiles for the second attack on Wuyang City landed the next afternoon, and once again, Ying Duo's secretary received a call, leading Emperor Qin Ying Duo to leave the palace for safety.
Then, the Great Tang Empire issued their statement: in light of Qin Country's extensive use of landmines, Tang Country would conduct a ten-day missile attack on Qin Country's capital, Wuyang, as a form of punishment and warning.
