Capítulo 976: Chapter 405: Debate at the Wei Palace_2

Yet now, having finally gained a land to call home, the Emperor does not think about recuperating and multiplying, disbanding the troops and ceasing warfare to restore the severely depleted national strength.

Can he not see that, five years ago, our United Army of three nations suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of the Liang army, and the nation's peril was imminent?

As a result, Liang, with its own lifeline of grain controlled by others, went through the misery of a food shortage after Chu State's betrayal cut off Jiangnan's grain supply. Wasn't it truly tragic?
