The Bone-Eroding Path extends from south to north, measuring just over one hundred kilometers in length.
If we were within the borders of Cai Qiu, following the official road the whole way, even with an army of 150,000 men, it would probably only take two hours.
But this isn't the case here!
The Bone-Eroding Path not only lacks a single meter of official road but has also been eroded by demonic winds for years, making the temperature extremely low and the terrain unusually complex. Fewer people might still manage, but with a large number, the situation complicates.
Not to mention, the returning army from Cai Qiu this time numbers a full 150,000.
"It took more than four hours to march from north to south, and now, retracing our steps, despite urging all along the way, it still took us almost three hours. After a long period without battles, the preparedness of the feudal towns' military has deteriorated to this extent!"
