As more and more memorials from the border cities reached the Capital City, the voices at court gradually grew uniform. Beiming had begun to brazenly plunder the villages outside the border.
Fierce blizzards, mixed with hail, swept through the Capital City. The surrounding prefectures and counties were all blanketed in ice and snow.
If even the Capital City was in such a state, one could only imagine the conditions in the border cities.
Panic spread among the people as reports of snow-related disasters from all around the Capital City flooded the court.
Ji Yunting and Song Buran received orders to lead disaster relief efforts. At the same time, the Emperor issued a decree to personally lead a military campaign.
The ministers objected, kowtowing one after another in protest.
Feng Yi's mind was made up. He had the troops sharpen their weapons and feed their horses, mobilizing his forces and appointing generals. The northern campaign was imminent.
