Chapter 1169: Chapter 469 Shenwu Era_3

```

Thinking about how, rather than waiting for others to attack in the future, it would be better to strike now.

Thus, after resolving the war in Yong State, Lu Yuan dispatched two armies consecutively, to subjugate Xu State and Tang Kingdom.

At this time, having gathered the strength of almost half the world, the number of Inborn Grandmasters in Chu State had surpassed two hundred.

Even after deducting those left to defend the homeland, each of the two northern countries could spare around sixty or seventy people.

With such strength, the two countries naturally couldn't resist.

They both fell within less than half a year.

After the last two countries of the north were destroyed, the remaining barbarian forces in the north, faced with the military might of Great Chu, were terrified and came forward to surrender.

Even the pirates far out in the East Sea, upon learning that the entire Nine Provinces had been unified, came ashore to submit and no longer dared to harass.
