The original North and South armies were the first to submit to the Kenshin.
Their attitude was clearer and more trustworthy of the Kenshin's trust.
At the same time, the North Army was led by Kenshin while the South Army was led by Nangong Buhuo.
In the current Rebel Alliance, Nangong Buhuo was the Kenshin's most trusted aide.
In other words, the North and South armies were more loyal and controllable. They could be called the Rebel Alliance's main force.
As for the new East and West armies, they were fence-sitters who only submitted to the Rebel Alliance after a few months of observation. Their loyalty was not high.
The forces that formed the two armies could not be trusted. The Dugu and Wanyan clans that led the two armies were not Kenshin's trusted aides.
Therefore, the Kenshin's control over these two armies would be much weaker.
Due to the fact that the leaders and vice leaders of the ten forces had already sworn an oath of surrender.
Therefore, they would not dare to go against the Kenshin's will and disobey the Kenshin's orders.
However, no one could guarantee that they would not do something that would deceive their superiors and deceive their subordinates at certain crucial moments.
Let's take a simple example.
If the North and South armies met a territorial leader who did not surrender and even gathered their forces to resist, there would be no hesitation.
Then, without a doubt, he would definitely start a war and forcefully defeat the other party, forcing them to surrender.
Or they could kill the other party and choose a new territorial leader to control the territory.
However, the East and West armies looked aggressive and tough, using the Rebel Alliance and Kenshin's signboard.
If they met a territorial leader who was stubborn and did not fear death and refused to surrender, the East and West armies would definitely not be able to do so. They would just start a war.
Most of the forces would try to preserve their own strength and stall for time while waiting for the Kenshin to come and settle it.
Therefore, the East and West armies were still under Ji Tianxing's observation and test.
He did not expect the two armies to fight a bloody battle. It would be enough if they could serve as a messenger and persuade the other party to surrender.
…
As time passed, the four armies of the Rebel Alliance conquered one territory after another.
The territories that surrendered to the Rebel Alliance also spread out in all directions with Yanxu's Heavenly Cave as the center.
After a short three months, nearly half of the Boundless Heaven Continent actually belonged to the Rebel Alliance!
In the meantime, quite a few top forces and ancient clans requested to join the Anti-Rebellions Alliance sincerely and humbly.
Even though everyone knew that these factions and ancient clans were all shameless people, they still didn't dare to offend them.
After being a fence-sitter for so long, it was only now that he joined the Rebel Alliance. It was truly despicable.
However, Ji Tianxing still followed the old rules and allowed them to join the Rebel Alliance. He also personally watched them read the oath of surrender.
As for these forces, Ji Tianxing treated them even worse.
Other than guaranteeing that they could preserve their current forces and industries after unifying the Boundless Heaven Continent, they did not give any conditions or treatment.
There was no reward of a region or permission to develop forces and businesses in the surrounding nine regions!
Even so, those forces had no complaints and surrendered obediently.
Of course, the Boundless Heaven Continent was now clearly divided and the situation was very clear.
This should be the last batch of fence-sitters who joined the Rebel Alliance.
The forces that were still in a wait-and-see state would probably continue to observe.
As for the Imperial Tutor, he did not make any big moves in these three months.
He only mobilized and gathered the forces under his command and deployed more troops in the Dark Night Region to make the entire region impregnable.
At present, it seemed that the Imperial Tutor was determined not to fight back. He only wanted to defend the Dark Night Region and wait for the final battle.
However, this was not the case.
When the ten forces joined the Rebel Alliance and formed two armies, the Imperial Tutor noticed it.
The army in the north was commanded by Kenshin. They could not afford to offend them.
The army in the south was commanded by Nangong Buhuo. It was composed of six forces and was very powerful.
In addition, with the lesson of the God Slayer's destruction, the Imperial Tutor did not dare to attack the army in the south.
If he wanted to weaken the Rebel Alliance, he could only deal with the two armies in the east and west.
However, the repeated defeats and heavy losses left a deep impression on the Imperial Tutor.
This time, he did not act rashly.
After all, the four armies of the Rebel Alliance were still expanding outwards. The distance between them was increasing.
The Imperial Tutor was very wary of Kenshin's incredible speed.
Therefore, he patiently prepared and waited for three months.
When the four armies were far enough apart, the Imperial Tutor finally made his move.
This operation was the same as the God Slayer's.
He carefully selected eight thousand soldiers, led by two ninth level Divine King experts, and quietly rushed to the west of the Boundless Heaven Continent to deal with the army in the west led by Clan Leader Wanyan.
In order not to repeat the mistakes of the God Slayer, the Imperial Tutor mobilized a total of seven thousand nine hundred and fifty Divine Lords and fifty Divine Kings.
Even the name of this army was called the Western Expedition Army. It was not as ostentatious as the God Slayer's.
The Imperial Tutor studied the information of the army in the west and felt that the four thousand soldiers were weak and lacked coordination.
However, he still sent out double the number of soldiers and taught them a few strategies.
If the Rebel Alliance's army in the west was a wolf, then the Imperial Tutor's Western Expedition Army was a giant beast.
He believed that as long as there were no accidents, the Western Expedition Army would be able to easily crush the army in the west!
On a dark and windy night, the Western Expedition Army quietly set off without attracting anyone's attention.
Other than the Western Expedition Army, the Imperial Tutor, and a few of his trusted subordinates, almost no one knew the whereabouts and route of this army.
The Rebel Alliance's army in the west did not notice the approaching danger and continued to march forward, conquering one region after another.
Three months ago, when the Western Road Army was carrying out their mission, many of them appeared to be tough on the outside but weak on the inside. Many of them were filled with worry.
They were worried that the Territorial Masters would not know what was good for them. If a conflict really broke out, would they fight or not?
That was why they brought up the name of the Rebel Subjugation Alliance and the Sword God, appearing aggressive and unyielding.
However, in these three months, their journey had been smooth sailing, and they had been successful in every endeavor.
None of the Domain Lords dared to challenge or go against them.
As a result, the Western Expedition Army's morale was inflated. The experts of the five forces were a little complacent.
They even felt that the Kenshin would take over the world and rule the entire Boundless Heaven Continent. It was already set in stone and would be realized in a year at most.
At that time, they would be heroes who had made great contributions!
Many people were fantasizing about how the Kenshin would reward them when the time came.
How much benefits, power, and status would they receive?
Very quickly, ten days passed.
The crisis had finally arrived, but the Western Expedition Army was still unaware.
