Ye Shiqi felt the carriage running through the night, the horses so weary, not knowing how long they had been running. As dawn was about to break, they arrived at a place with a city gate!
She could use her space to check that this was a place guarded by soldiers!
This was a small oasis, about the size of a county town!
Where is this…?
According to what the old housekeeper had said before, they had followed the route to an oasis with a city gate, a strategic location defended by the Ye family. This county oasis had two city gates, one leading inside the border, and the other to a different country!
This was the main defense location. Although the county was not large, the Ye Family Army's barracks were here, and it was the most critical territory to protect!
If another nation conquered this county and occupied it, they could take control of a vast area outside the border and then have the chance to attack the city gates inside the border!
