Zhang was running out of time, the Bian forces were part of a collapsing front within the Kithium league, the forming Western front as the division of the League seemed inevitable forced Zhang to demand the Kithium follow his lead instead. "You will follow me to victory, or remain in death." His words gave him command of what remained of a formal Kithium army in Western Kithia in a desperate attempt to break the Galran offensive. Zhang would have his highly trained Bian forces with their new repeating rifle spearheading the assault against Galra.
Zhang's forces
1,500 light infantry
3,500 standard infantry
3,500 heavy infantry
1,250 Elite guards
500 dragoon infantry
400 field artillery
1,000 siege artillery
Kithium Western Army
25,000 light infantry
9,000 standard infantry
1,000 special infantry
25,000 dragoon infantry
7,000 carabineers
1,700 field artillery
40 mortars
Though a small force compared to others, the Bian army is highly trained
The assault would begin with a mass artillery strike on Western Galran forces at the Kithium front with Kith infantry charging and taking the lead with Bian forces behind them. Zhang had limited time given his supply line was utterly strained and the entire front was running out of ammunition. He was going to have to be brutally cold with his Kithium allies and allow them to take the brunt of punishment from the Galrans, but for now he had a large artillery corps pounding Galran forces as his infantry pressed the enemy lines.
