Luo Xiao finally awaited his opportunity, and the 8th Corps began their campaign. Over 250,000 troops from 12 divisions set off, heading straight for the crucial transportation hub controlled by the Qin Country: into Shu.
This city now gathered over 300,000 Qin Army soldiers, which, from a numerical standpoint alone, still held a certain scale.
Furthermore, there were approximately 100,000 elite troops from the Dahua as well. These troops were under the command of Zhao Jie, who was now the Protector of the State of the Qin Country, overseeing all defense near Shu.
Zhao Jie actually didn't want this either; he originally desired his old territory, and the range of influence Qin Country promised him was even slightly larger.
