The troops were led by Gao Shen, a seasoned war veteran with a lot of battlefield experience. Gao Shen joined the army at 16 and now at the age of 50, he has been through hundreds of battles, experiencing life and death on many occasions. In addition to this, Gao Shen firmly supports the Crown Prince: the daughter of a relative who is not yet at the age of mourning was the Prince’s concubine, and this relationship had significantly advanced Gao Shen’s military career.

Gao Shen advocated for a proactive attack on Wangdu County, only the formidable powers of Qi Tian and others made him hesitate. After all, the emergence of Qi Tian had greatly changed the warfare situation of the Great Zhao Nation. Prior to Qi Tian, cultivators did participate in mundane wars, but never as deeply as Qi Tian. Not to mention Qi Tian’s ambition to overthrow a Crown Prince, which was a major event that could seriously change the country’s situation, such things were strenuously avoided by previous cultivators.

If it had been anyone else, Gao Shen wouldn’t have concerned himself with the attitudes of the cultivators accompanying the army, but with Qi Tian, Gao Shen dared not to take the risk.

The city’s defensive moat was deepened and broadened, the walls were reinforced and heightened, and all kinds of city defense tools were being produced as if money was no object. Furthermore, after obtaining the Crown Prince’s consent, Gao Shen recruited many cultivators to boost the strength of their forces, promising them high rewards and additional benefits after they helped defeat the Northern Expedition Army.

In addition, the Crown Prince used his connections to invite several Gold Core Realm experts to assist them in the war, offering incentives even they couldn’t refuse. The Four Seas Bank’s Wu Shenglian was one of the people who were sent over by the high-level directors of the bank after they received the news.
