Qingzhou.
Pingting County.
Prince Huai led an army of sixty thousand, landed in Qingzhou, and captured it effortlessly.
Yet, not a trace of a smile could be seen on his face; instead, his expression was extremely grim.
The staff officers and generals below were also silent, fearing to evoke Prince Huai's wrath.
There are many reasons to wage war.
For example, limited production capacity leads to unequal resource distribution, making war a means to resolve conflicts.
But the main reason is still to plunder land, population, and resources.
However, now, Prince Huai could be said to have "gained nothing."
It seems like he obtained all the lands of Qingzhou, but the people of Qingzhou were gone.
This is equivalent to getting a vast empty land with no one to create wealth on it, so what's the use of having it?
As for resources, granaries, weapon depots, and treasuries were all empty.
Even the weapons workshops had been destroyed.
