Chapter 1039: 500 Strongest Gu Family Army! (First Update)

The battle for Yuegu City saw heavy losses on both sides, with Zhan Country's forces even more depleted. However, they had the numbers to quickly replenish their ranks.

Perhaps because the conquest of the previous three cities had been too easy, when Rong Fu led an army of twenty thousand to attack Yuegu City, he actually felt it was an overkill.

He was well aware of Yuegu City's military deployment; the total guards and constables from all the government offices barely exceeded two thousand, and even with the addition of temporarily conscripted able-bodied men, their numbers were no more than five thousand. Plus, Tang Yueshan had spirited away two thousand five hundred soldiers from Ye City, making a total force of just over seven thousand.
