Cao Jie transmitted a message that was quite interesting.
Every word spoken can be considered factual. Not a single subjective opinion was added, which prevents people of Summer Country from dismissing it as rumor.
But indeed, when only a fragment of truth is presented, it already diverges from its full reality.
The costs that the Qi Army paid for this are completely erased, and it conceals Yu Liyang's balancing and sacrifices.
When the first battle won a great victory, forcing Yu Liyang to retreat within a day and achieving a significant triumph at Jianfeng Mountain, Cao Jie naturally aimed to fully exploit its influence in public opinion.
The vast majority of people wouldn't care how much power the Qi Army deployed in the war, nor would they think about the level of depletion from the Autumn Kill Army forcibly attacking with military formations... People would only notice that even Da Xia's King Min couldn't defend Jianfeng Mountain, not even for a day!
