Encroaching Coalition Army is the 264th chapter of the Kingdom manga.
Summary[]
Shin, Ten and the the Hi Shin Unit slowly realize that all of the states are attacking Qin, as they see a Han army near them. The Coalition Army slowly starts its attacks on Qin with each respective military attacking Qin's territories. At Bayou, the Zhao army is sieging the city with Ri Boku and his commanders observing the battle. The Great Heaven is informed that general Kei Sha has successfully entered Bayou's inner city.
In the Qin courts, as the officials realize a coalition army is approaching, Shou Bun Kun explains that the only time a coalition army was ever formed and seen was over 40 years ago, when all six states attacked Qi during its reign as a superstate, under the leadership of Yan Great General Gaku Ki, the Military God. The state of Qi lost everything but two cities, Sokuboku and Kyo. The official stand in utter shocked after the story.
Meanwhile, the Coalition Army makes its way deeper into Qin's territory. The Zhao army passes Hou hills, the Yan make it to Etsu and the Wei pass Chuuken. Hearing this, the officials instantly become demoralized, and despite the great number of people, only Shou Hei Kun and Shou Bun Kun try to think of a plan. As some of them fall to their knees, Ei Sei tells them to stand while picking them up. The Qin King tells the officials not to give up, and focus on creating a plan, as they're the ones in the courts who are the only ones in the state of Qin that can save the kingdom from destruction in an impassion speech. Rosed with heights of morale, the officials agree, their morale regained, and start thinking of plans instantly. With both from the Ei Sei Faction and Ryo Fui Faction.
Watching from the side, Ryo Fui and Shou Hei Kun discuss the battle as well. Ryo Fui says that while regaining morale is good for them, they need something bigger to turn the tides in the dire situation. Shou Hei Kun agrees, saying that they have one more option to strike at the Coalition Army, and that is to target the state of Qi, whose armies are yet to reach Qin.
