Chapitre 827: Seeking Help

According to the report of the scouts, the size of the armies that were mustered to the north of Thousand Horsemen Pass had exceeded their previous expectations.

Dugu Xian had prepared a general outline of the current situation and was now briefing the others. He pointed with his sole remaining arm, saying, "To the east of Thousand Horsemen Pass, a Central-Plains army is stationed at the foot of a hill.
