A month later.
The Left General, carrying a letter personally written by the Empress, led fifty thousand elite cavalry and magnificently left the Capital City.
These fifty thousand cavalry were drawn from five different armies. The Imperial Army, Divine Martial Camp, and Brave Camp each contributed ten thousand cavalry, and the Heroic Guard Camp and Nanyang Guard Camp also contributed ten thousand cavalry, totaling exactly fifty thousand.
Additionally, there were ten thousand auxiliary soldiers assigned specifically for transporting food and supplies. These auxiliaries were all from the Heroic Guard Camp. Although they were labeled auxiliary soldiers, in reality, they were brave and battle-ready. The auxiliary soldiers moved more slowly than the cavalry because of the supplies they had to transport, trailing by several days. Along the way, bandits and mountain brigands fled at the rumor, and no one dared to approach the court's grand army.
