The 8th Infantry Brigade serving under Fortress 178 in the Northwest set off from Stronghold 144. However, when the troops were deployed this time, the Northwest did not even bother to conceal their movements as they hurried directly for the battlefield in the Central Plains.
Over the past few months, Hope Media, which originally did not have any presence in the Northwest, had also set up new branches in the two main cities of Fortress 178 and Stronghold 144.
Meanwhile, the print runs of their newspaper in the other strongholds were handled by distribution vendors.
With regards to the Central Plains’ overall war situation, the Northwest’s high-profile announcement of their participation to defend against the northern enemy was enough to lift everyone’s spirits. Although the Alliance of Strongholds had been established for over 200 years, this was probably the first time the Central Plains people were so united again.
These lands had experienced an extended period of separatism. After a displacement in culture and the consortiums’ carefully curated curriculum, a lot of people even forgot that they used to be compatriots before The Cataclysm and should therefore be united as a nation. And now, it seemed everyone in the Central Plains was infuriated by the Northerners’ action of massacring a city. The words “rousing” and “victory” also started appearing more in Hope Media’s newspapers.
