Chapter 901 The Worthy First!

• The impending battle for the throne had not yet commenced, but tensions were already high on the riverbanks. The preparations had been underway since early morning, with Qin Shanhe personally overseeing the proceedings. The royal troops were divided into two groups, with the elder statesmen facing off against each other.
• Qin Shanhe, seeking redemption from a challenge issued decades ago by Chen Lie, stood on the riverbank in his Tang attire, cane in hand. Despite his age, his eyes gleamed with determination and a fierce resolve.
• As the general beside him inquired about the impending war, news arrived of an approaching army of unknown origin, equipped with advanced weaponry and ready to attack. Thousands of troops were also gathering at the northwest border, with a significant amount of ammunition being transported to the enemy forces.
