Kingdom - Vol. 58 Ch. 635 - Mountain of Treasure

@Rzaj who told you this nonsense? Eating horses is perfectly fine. And they no longer need mobility, they have a fort. All they need is to wait for supplies to come

 

[MASINT]

@kavinh I recall that Zhao have been dumping poison on the corpses of the horses and soldiers on the battlefield in the plains so they may have to acquire the food elsewhere.

So I guess this is Hara's way to set up Riboku's death. With the fall of Gyou it will probably be the final nail in an unjustified coffin for the Zhao king to have him die.

Ah long pig, the quintessential delicacy of attrition war, and far off colonies in rimworlds

 

[LeRyzz]

*And, my son, that's how they have eaten AAAAAALL the people that were still in the city!*

 

[KuroInfinity]

...its cannibalism, isn't it? 🤢

 

[Mangareader]

What's a little sawdust if you face annihilation?

Finally, the 18th day! Felt like a year! Oh wait- It was 2 years.
The longest 18 days in my life.

Food: the mountain tribes are hunting, so maybe Ousen's army could hunt, too. Or just get the frickin supply line that was cut off, re-started, because if I remember correctly, it's not cut off now. Or maybe I don't remember well, it's been 18 days 2 years after all. My hunch is, he'll come up with option 3 which I'm yet to see.

@ZeonII True they can eat horses but how long will that last them? If you can't feed the horses they'll all die off. The manga made it sound like some surprising/shocking idea that will be revealed.

 

[ZeonII]

@FlamingSquirrel they will most likely do some pro gamer move and do something not related to food directly

 

[otakutyrant]

Suddenly, what a free fall.

 

[Oculunus]

"Kept y'all waiting, huh?" - you sure freaking did author.
This brilliant starving tactic worked indeed. Impressive.

 

[kazaddum]

Cannibalism ho?

 

[axelTHEGREAT]

Ousen + Kanki = Dynamic Duo

 

[Konrad2]

Thanks for the translation.

Battle of Gyou

40,000-50,000 civilians were eaten

Strategic Qin victory

edit: Dang, @tppcrpg beat me to it

 

[Damn_SkippyF5]

It's either that, or eat your horses...

 

[Cherry_PuNK]

cannibalism or horses, surely

 

[ThinkPositive]

If it's not cannibalism, they're modernizing it
China has historically been large-scale cannibalizing up 'till the 1920's
