Yuwen Song advanced from Gu County, and every county he passed through surrendered without resistance, raising their flags in capitulation. It is said that within three days, his forces had killed their way near Ying County, and soon the Western Army will be setting their sights on the Imperial Capital.
The Bandits never expected Yuwen Song to be so fierce, striking without any warning.
When they arrived at Gu County, the command they received was to change into armor and defend this place to the death.
The Bandits were both excited and disappointed.
Excitement came with the prospect of swapping their bandit cloaks for armor, but disappointment arose from traveling such a long distance only to end up guarding the insignificant Gu County.
If things were truly as such, even if Yuwen Song one day took over the realm, they would have no part in it, and being appointed as a Centurion would already be a laughable achievement.
