Although the Macedonian Empire was in dire straits, they still chose to retaliate.
This retaliation brought immense trouble to the people of the Turios Empire.
Initially, they thought their army of 300,000 would easily defeat Macedonia's army of less than 100,000.
However, when the actual fighting began, they encountered fierce resistance from the Macedonian Empire.
The Macedonian soldiers fought as if they were determined to perish together.
Not only did they fiercely resist the enemy's advance, but they even fought to the death against the invaders.
Many Macedonian soldiers had already climbed onto the city walls, about to begin their slaughter.
The Macedonian soldiers still held onto them, and together they leaped off the city walls.
Some of them, even on the verge of death, did not forget to drag a Turios Empire soldier down with them.
This level of resistance was something the people of the Turios Empire had never anticipated.
Because of this, the people of the Turios Empire were anxious and shouted:
"It wasn't our Turios Empire that defeated your 400,000-strong army. We are not your sworn enemies; the army of Great Qin is!"
"You don't need to resist so fiercely. Your Macedonian Empire can completely surrender to our Turios Empire, and then our two countries will join forces to destroy the army of Great Qin!"
"Bah! You think you can fool us again?!"
"Although the army of Great Qin annihilated our 400,000 soldiers, our Macedonian Empire still stands, yet you despicable villains want to destroy us!"
"Today, even if we die, we will not let you despicable villains succeed!"
The Macedonian soldiers, for some unknown reason, did not hate Lin Tian's army as much.
They hated the army of the Turios Empire even more.
Perhaps it was because their encounters with Lin Tian's army were head-on battles.
Such direct confrontations made them lose with conviction.
As for the people of the Turios Empire, it was completely different; they were more like a group of sneak attackers.
Such sneak attackers were something they detested intensely.
Because of this, their hatred for the Turios Empire became even deeper.
This profound hatred led to even more intense resistance.
However, even with their fierce resistance, they might not be able to withstand the attack of the Turios Empire's army.
The Turios Empire's forces attacked for two full days. After two days, their army finally captured the capital of the Macedonian Empire.
This was definitely a historic moment for them.
Although the Turios Empire suffered heavy losses in this battle, they were immensely proud at the moment of victory.
"Finally, Macedonia belongs to our Turios Empire!"
"Finally, our Turios Empire is about to truly grow strong!"
"Finally, our Turios Empire is about to become the most powerful empire!"
After the army of the Turios Empire conquered the capital of the Macedonian Empire, everyone felt an immense sense of pride.
This pride made them believe that their empire had begun to expand.
As long as they were given time, their empire would surely develop into the most powerful nation on this continent.
Therefore, the faces of every single one of them were filled with the joy of victory.
However, they were unaware that at the border of their Turios Empire, the army of Great Qin had already launched its offensive.
"Attack! Charge directly to their capital!"
"Yes!"
The Turios Empire was previously even smaller than the Macedonian Empire.
Because of this, an army of 300,000 was at their limit.
The current Turios Empire was severely lacking in defenses and constantly faced threats.
However, the people of the Turios Empire were not fools. After dispatching 300,000 troops, they also sent many soldiers to monitor Lin Tian's 150,000-strong army.
As soon as Lin Tian's 150,000 troops made any move, they would be immediately alerted.
If Lin Tian's 150,000 troops were to return and attack their Turios Empire, their army would not hesitate to engage Lin Tian's army in battle.
They also believed that their current army could contend with Lin Tian's 150,000 troops.
This was why they had unscrupulously dispatched 300,000 troops to attack the Macedonian Empire.
However, while they had guarded against Lin Tian's 150,000 troops, they were completely unaware of Great Qin's 300,000-strong army.
As a result, when Great Qin's 300,000-strong army charged forward, the people of the Turios Empire were caught completely off guard.
"Ah! What army is that? Why do they have so many people?"
"Hiss! That black flag, could they be from Great Qin?"
"How can Great Qin still have people, and so many of them? What is going on?"
"It's over, something big is about to happen!"
Upon seeing the large army of Great Qin appear, many people realized something was wrong.
They felt that a major crisis was imminent.
Therefore, they immediately dispatched someone to report this matter to their Great Emperor.
If their Great Emperor did not handle this matter promptly, it would spell disaster for their Turios Empire.
Even ordinary soldiers understood this situation.
Because of this, their messengers were extremely fast, doing their utmost to deliver the news.
The army of Great Qin did not pay attention to their actions.
Their primary objective was to charge into the Turios Empire, capture their cities, and conquer their capital.
They didn't care about anything else.
It didn't matter if the Great Emperor of the Turios Empire truly knew that their army was coming.
This was because the army of Great Qin was not only these 300,000 troops; there were also Lin Tian's 150,000 troops.
They believed that Lin Tian would definitely handle everything.
The Great Emperor of the Turios Empire was still unaware of this.
He was still enjoying the joy of victory.
"Hahaha! We've taken it! We've truly taken the Macedonian Empire! This is a historic day for our Turios Empire!"
"From today onwards, there will only be one overlord on this continent, and that is our Turios Empire!"
"Moreover, our Turios Empire will surely become a greater nation than the Roman Empire!"
