The East Mountain was a small city in the northern border. It was near the border and would not have attracted too much attention.

The war was raging. It was not a war between the north and the Kingdom of Ascending. It was a battle between allies of the Kingdom of Ascending and the Northern Reaches!

It was said that the East Ridge was filled with countless provisions, military supplies, and armors, as well as countless pieces of gold, silver, and jewelry.

It was said that the East Mountain was extremely rich, and was the location of the northern border's transport!

The East Mountain wasn't big, but it was very dangerous. It was easy to defend, but hard to attack. The roads led in all directions, and it wasn't like it was a small city at the border. Usually, no one paid much attention to it. The special geographical location was near the Northern Frontier Center, and it was very suitable to be used as a storage area for the northern troops.

There were very few soldiers stationed in the East Ridge, only two thousand. They were easy to defend and difficult to attack, so they didn't need too many guards. Furthermore, no one would notice that this was not a military fort, but a small city where all the military forces would fight for it.

Such a small city like this, yet the Sun Ascension Empire had spent so much effort to break through it. They had lost more than several thousand men, and had barely managed to break through it. After paying a heavy price, they all hoped that they would be able to obtain all the materials they needed from the East Mountain. At the very least, it would be enough to support their army for a period of time. The wealth of Tian Yuan was something they coveted. Even in the barren northern border of the Tian Yuan Kingdom, there was a vast and fertile land that they could plunder with just a handful of seeds.

Slapping the deer and scooping up the fish was the best way to describe the northern border. The forest was densely packed, and there was no lack of wilderness. There were countless amounts of wild and precious delicacies.

Just scoop a ladle of water into the river and it will be filled with fish. They would be able to find prey and all sorts of rare and precious medicinal herbs when they casually went into the mountains.

In the eyes of the people of the Northern Regions and the Rising Sun Empire, the Northern Frontier was already very rich. However, in Tianyuan, it was a barren and desolate place. There were also envoys from the Sun Ascension Empire who had been to the capital of Tianyuan City and many other places in the Northern Regions. They said that they had personally seen the southern part of the Northern Frontier where the Tianyuan Kingdom was wealthier. The capital was a bustling place that they had never seen before, a place filled with wealth and wealth.

It was said that even further south in the Tian Yuan Kingdom was the home of fish and rice. One could harvest grain twice a year and plant it randomly. The crops would be even denser than the wild humans'.

These were all things that the people of the Northern Regions and the Rising Sun Empire wanted. They had always coveted and coveted, and their greedy eyes had never left Tian Yuan before.

As long as they could get enough resources from the East Mountain to support the army, they would be able to take advantage of the supplies they had gotten from the Northern Frontier to snatch even more items.

However, it wasn't just the Rising Sun Empire's soldiers that attacked the Eastern Mountains, but also the people of the northern region.

Seeing the mountain of food, meat, weapons, and various supplies, both sides' eyes turned red. None of them were willing to give up on these treasures. Both sides went from quarrelling to fighting in order to obtain supplies. From a battle to a free-for-all, the final outcome turned into a war!

No one knew whether it was the Northern Reaches or the Sun Ascension Empire that first invaded the East Mountain. No one knew.

No one cared either. It turned out that after the city had been breached, the Northern Frontier soldiers that were guarding the East Mountain had all gone somewhere alive.

Regardless of whether they were from the Sun Ascension Empire or the Northern Reaches, the price they had paid after breaking into the East Mountain was far more than what they had paid after breaking into the small, perilous city. As the losses on both sides increased, the battle became more and more intense. In the end, both sides mobilized all of their forces that were used to attack the East Mountain Range. The battle lasted for three days and three nights!

He had gone from an ally to an enemy, and he had also turned into a mortal enemy. This transformation had cost both sides tens of thousands of casualties. A single East Ridge City had turned into a sea of fire.

In the beginning, the population of the northern region was not as strong as the Sun Ascension Empire. However, during the sneak attack and surprise attack, the Sun Ascension Empire suffered a great loss. However, when the war truly began, the people of the northern region would not be able to withstand the attacks of the Rising Sun Empire and would have no choice but to run all over the place. Using their physical advantage, they used the small and steep city of the East Ridge to fight against the Rising Sun Empire. He took the opportunity to set fire to the East Mountain and burned countless provisions. They couldn't get it, and they definitely wouldn't let the Rising Sun Empire get it!
