Meanwhile, Salvador received Louis‘ urgent report, confirming that Sandoria’s army was indeed marching towards the border. The report estimated their numbers at 250,000, still led by Victor.

Salvador convened the officials from the Ministry of Defense, demanding an evaluation of the Southern Frontier’s ability to repel such a massive force.

Davis felt that Salvador’s question was wrong, because whether they could win and whether they could win quickly were two different things.

“The Southern Frontier has endured years of war and unrest. While the land can bear the scars, its people cannot. If we really have to fight, it’s best to strike quickly and retreat. Otherwise, the Sandorian army will be like locusts, returning year after year to harass us. Such a situation will harm the long–term peace of the Southern Frontier,” said Davis.
