Chapter 722: Chapter 320: Envoy from Zhou Country_2

In the past two years, the only conquest Lu Yuan had accomplished was the recent capture of Hegu County.

This was because Hegu County was far away on the plateau, surrounded by mountains and forests, forming a natural barrier.

The only passage for communication with the outside world was through Xichuan County.

With Huang Xuan guarding Xichuan County and as long as his Avatar was there, as long as Xichuan County didn't fall, the outside world would never be able to reach Hegu County, making this place absolutely safe.

By doing the math, among the five counties of the Chu State, each county was guarded by at least one Inborn Grandmaster, and they could mobilize an army of more than 100,000 at any time, making their safety absolutely guaranteed.

Lu Yuan's expansion was cautious, never surpassing his capabilities.

Of course.

Being cautious did not mean that he truly gave up on Ning Country and other countries like Su and Song.

He was still intent on conquering Ning Country.
