Chapitre 493: Chapter 493: Two Emperors and Eighteen Kings_1

Chapter 493

The northerners ride horses, the southerners sail ships. With the numerous waterways criss-crossing Jiangnan, the Imperial Army led by Li Letian was not equipped for naval warfare. If they were to send a large army over, they might get stuck in Yangzhou.

Therefore, despite the hatred burning in his heart, Li Letian had no alternative but to instigate an imperial decree declaring Li Xing as a traitor. Every single person in the Empire was called upon to attack him.

Yangzhou, one of the richest places in the world, had drawn many covetous glances from the greedy. Now that Li Xing had been declared a traitor, it was just a matter of time before someone made a move.

The Empire was now at a stalemate between the north and the south. In addition to the two Emperors reigning in the north and the south, Li Letian had also appointed eighteen Vassal Kings, granting them legislative, executive, and taxation rights in their territories.
