章 399: Zhong Dynasty Rumble

Chapter 399 – Zhong Dynasty Rumble

Three of Tong's legions were ready to strike the central plain at any time, but Xun Yu hoped that Tong could wait a little longer.

The longer they postpone the major war between two powerhouses, the more peasants migrating to their territories. As the richest and the righteous faction of the court, this fame alone could attract merchants and nobles from around the country.

Wei Yan was one of the migrated people because of word of mouth. He came here along with other peasants because he heard that Tong had many academies in Ye.

In addition, Cao Cao had just invaded Xu Province, so civilians in his territories feared that they might get dragged into a war. As a consequence, many civilians moved north, seeking shelter under Tong's faction.
