(6,000-word chapter for red tickets)

As early as the end of August and the beginning of September, Yan generals Meng Anchan and Su Tingzhan led 30,000 horsemen, first went south along the east bank of the Han River, and entered Shicheng, and after converging with the extravagant Yuan and Han Li's department guarding Shicheng, there were more than 40,000 soldiers and horses gathered in Shicheng.

The luxury family abandoned Jiangzhou and fled north across the river, although Hanjin, but Hanjin is near the river, and Jingnan Xiongcheng Jiangxia across the river to confront each other, not the place to establish a foundation, in addition to leaving Yang Xiong to guard Hanjin and Huangpi, luxury Wenzhuang as early as before the autumn, nearly 100,000 family craftsmen who crossed the river moved north along the Han River to Shicheng.

Shicheng, on the east bank of the Han River, at the west foot of Dahong Mountain, two hundred miles away from Suizhou City in the northeast, two hundred miles away from Xiangfan in the north, three hundred miles away from Hanjin and Huangpi in the south, and Hanjin and Xiangfan are connected by the Han River, and because the luxury family withdrew from Jiangzhou to control the entire Han River, and from the Shicheng to cross the Han River to plunder Changlin, Jingmen, Zhongyi and other places on the west bank, in order to supplement the shortage of grain and grass for the luxury family to cross the river.

In July, Haowenzhuang also led Tian Chang and Su Tingzhan from Shicheng to the north to attack Xinye.

Shicheng is located in the center of the Jingxiang region, retreating can choke the Han River, Dahong Mountain to rush, south to aid eastern Hubei, west to cross the Han River can hit Jingmen - Ye Ji Luorong after taking Nanyang, also saw the wisdom of Shicheng's prescription, he wants to support the eastern Hubei defense line or flank Jingmen's relay point, Shicheng's position is much more superior than Suizhou.

It's just that Luo Xiancheng has no ambition, retreats to Suizhou, and has no enterprising heart, and has long regarded Dahong Mountain as the outer barrier of Suizhou, and the stone city outside Dahong Mountain has long been looted and burned, and has become a remnant land.

Luxury Wenzhuang led hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians into the stone city, the resources at hand are limited, and the stone city is only slightly cleaned up, the broken city wall is filled with wooden fences, and two places collapsed by heavy rain in August, but it is better to go to other places in the end.

After Meng Anchan and Su Tingzhan arrived in Shicheng, they increased the number of soldiers and horses in Shicheng to 40,000, and in addition to transferring 10,000 soldiers and horses to supplement Hanjin and increase the defense of Hanjin and Huangpi, other soldiers and horses were not in a hurry to make up for Eastern Hubei.

The line of defense should be poor and deep.

If all the soldiers and horses are piled up in eastern Hubei, it will only make the grain and grass on the eastern Hubei defense line more strained, and further intensify the pressure on logistics.

Correspondingly, as long as there are elite soldiers and strong generals stationed in Shicheng, they can rush to support Huangpi and Hanjin in three or two days, on the one hand, they can make the Huaidong army dare not attack Huangpi and Hanjin with all their might; On the other hand, for the defenders of Hanjin and Huangpi, as long as there are reinforcements behind them, they will have the confidence to hold the city, and there is really no need to pile up all the soldiers and horses in front.

And if more soldiers and horses are gathered in Shicheng, it is possible to cross the Han River to attack Jingmen in the west.

On September 12, before Tian Chang led his troops to attack Shiheyi in the north of Jingmen, Su Tingzhan was in Shicheng, and ordered his general Han Li to lead 5,000 elites to cross the Han River from Shicheng and attack Pengwanling on the west bank of the Han River, and cooperate with Tian Chang to attack Jingmen in the north.

Pengwan Ridge is the remnant vein of Jingshan in Jingmen, and the intermittent mountain reaches the west bank of the Han River, so that the Han River has to change with the turn of the mountain when it flows through the north of Jingmen. Although Pengwan Ridge is not high, the undulating hills and mountains are only thirty or fifty zhang, but it forces the Han River to form a big bay with the word "several", and it is also a small number of uplifted plots along the coast of nearly 1,000 miles from Xiangyang to Hanjin.

As early as when Luo Xiancheng and other rogue robbers attacked and plundered Jingxiang, the people on the front line of Pengwanling, who were deeply affected, relied on the danger of the terrain of the mountains to form a village to protect themselves, and the people were also fierce and brave.

When he arrived in the stone city, Hu Wenmu also saw the topographical advantages of Pengwan Ridge, and built additional fortresses along Pengwan Ridge to form a joint village of nearly 30 miles long from Chenjiajian in the north to Cuigongya in the south, thinking that it was a barrier on the east wing of Jingmen City.

Although Pengwanling and Shicheng stand across the river, the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, although the number of officers and soldiers directly stationed in Jingzhou is limited, but the spontaneous village soldiers in the countryside are scattered among the villages, as many as 3,000 people. After the luxury family took possession of Shicheng, they would plunder the west bank of the Han River, and they would bypass the Pengwanling Lianzhai and plunder the villages in the north and south that were not safe to defend.

At this time, it is necessary to attack Jingmen and open up the passage from Xiangyang to directly attack Jingzhou, Tian Chang led his troops to attack Shiheyi and other fortifications on the northern periphery of Jingmen from the north, and Shicheng can only not be stingy with troops, and not to cut off Pengwanling, the eastern barrier of Jingmen!

In order for the military horses to advance rapidly, Ye Ji Luorong issued a luxury city order in Xiangyang to spread to all parts of Jingxiang, saying: According to the soldiers, the city wall will not fall for one day, and it will fall for one day after it falls, and it will not fall for three days.

Extravagant Flying Bear, Extravagant Flying Tiger, Zheng Mingjing and other generals died on the battlefield one after another, and Han Li was already one of the few remaining brave generals of Fujian, and after he led his troops to cross the Han River, he first attacked Chen Jiajian.

Chen Jiajian is located in the north of Pengwan Ridge, it was originally a mountain more than 30 zhang high, the cottage was built in the col near the water, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Han Liphi was stubborn, grabbed the wall from the ladder, although it took half a day to take Chen Jiajian, but paid more than 300 casualties.

Pengwanling Lianzhai, there are seven anti-fortresses along the Han River for thirty miles, and Chen Jiajian is not the most dangerous one, if you really have to conquer them one by one, most of the five thousand elites who crossed to the west with Han Li will also be disabled.

Although Ye Ji Luorong said that he would not slaughter for a day, and it took Han Li half a day to take down Chen Jiajian, he still tied up nearly 2,000 people in Chenjiajian Village, regardless of soldiers and civilians, men, women, and children, to the Xiawan River Beach that could be seen in Zhuzhai and slaughtered them all, and for a time the blood stained the Han River red.

In the face of bloody killings, especially the enemy soldiers are strong and difficult to resist, and there are always very few who can grit their teeth and not give in.

On September 13, the Pengwanling Lianzhai surrendered to the enemy, and it was easy to cut the flank barrier of Jingzhou from Shicheng to the west by crossing the Han River. After Han Li fell into Pengwanling, he did not rush westward and besieged Jingmen City with Tian Changbu, but Li was ordered to go south along the Han River day and night, and with the cooperation of Yao Lin, the general of Pengwan Ridge, attacked Changlin, which was more than 80 miles south of Shicheng.

Changlin is subordinate to Jingzhou, although it is not exactly on the way from Jingmen to Jingzhou, but the deviation is more than 20 miles. Occupying Changlin will be able to restrict the Jingmen defenders from retreating south, and it will also be able to restrict the Jingzhou defenders from aiding Jingmen in the north.

In addition, the Hanshui River goes south from Xiangyang, passes through Shicheng to Changlin, and the section of the river flows almost north-south for hundreds of miles, but after Changlin County, it turns a big bay of nearly 90 degrees, and turns due east, until Hanjin joins the Yangtze River. If Hanjin can't hold it, Changlin will go down to blockade Hanshui except Hanjin and resist the best place for Huaidong Shuiying warships to enter Hanshui.

From Hanjin to Changlin, the Han River twists and turns for about 300 miles. After getting the news of the fall of Hanjin, the Huaidong Water Battalion wanted to go upstream, and it would take at least three days, which was enough time for the Changlin guards to scuttle the sinking boats to block the Hanshui.

And rushing to Changlin can prevent the defenders of Changlin from destroying the city and burning grain, and avoid entering Jingzhou-

Han Li seized Changlin, and Tian Chang led his troops to cut off the fortifications on the periphery of Jingmen by bloody means, and on the 19th, pushed the soldiers and horses to the city of Jingmen; At this time, Zhou Fan also led the main force of the new annexed army with 50,000 cavalry to cross the Shihe Post and rushed to Jingmen, and went south with Zhou Fan's department, as well as the 8,000 cavalry led by the Yan general Pujie Shisuo, which was also the first cavalry elite of Ye Ji Luorong's headquarters to cross the Han River.

The outer fortifications of Jingmen were completely removed, the defenders were trapped in the lonely city, Zhou Fan besieged the city with soldiers and horses, and Pujieshi led the cavalry to bypass Jingmen, and went straight to Jingzhou, and attacked the two cities of Dangyang and Herong in the southwest of Jingmen.

In the northeast corner, Changlin City was occupied by the rebel general Han Li, and 5,000 elites entered its north; In the northwest, there were 8,000 iron cavalry marching straight in, and although Hu Wenmu had 30,000 water infantry troops in Jingzhou, he did not dare to go out of the city to aid Jingmen.

The guard general Chen Di had 5,000 guards in Jingmen, and the official family was called to move to Jingzhou; Hu Wenmu Mingli said that he wanted the generals to defend the city with peace of mind, but it was nothing more than to take the family as a hostage to prevent the defenders from surrendering without a fight.

Since nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Huaidong Army have been assembled near Huangzhou, and the vanguard has entered the territory of Hanjin and Huangpi to fight for control of the peripheral areas of Hanjin and Huangpi, the main force will come to the city at any time, and Zhou Fan and Tian Chang will not have time to attack the city step by step in Jingmen.

Take the soil to build a road, form a slope channel, which is conducive to the generals to directly enter the city head and fight with the defenders, but the landfill road project is huge. It was not a simple task to force the soldiers to brave the arrows and stones that the guards were pouring down from the city to fill bags of soil on the base of the city wall, and it required a lot of time and manpower.

There was no time to play with water mills, Zhou Fan led his troops to the city of Jingmen, one is to make people enter the city to persuade them to surrender, the second is to drive the people caught from the four towns and eight miles to the city, fill in the trenches and level the bases, and prepare for the storming of Jingmen, the third is to ask the generals of Nanzhang, Zhongyi and other places to descend the soldiers to climb the ladder to attack the city first, let them see the blood, kill and kill people, and then they will follow the Northern Yan to fight for wealth and nobility, and can also reduce the consumption of the soldiers and horses in the bloody siege war......

**************

Although Lin Jian had already ordered Hu Wenmu to clear the area north of Jingzhou, Hu Wenmu had been hesitant. After the siege of Nanyang City, Liang Chengchong could not hold Nanyang and there was no turnaround, Hu Wenmu still failed to make up his mind, and it was not until after the fall of Nanyang that he made up his mind to clear the northern area of Jingzhou.

Jingzhou has a very wide jurisdiction, from Nanzhang and Zhongyi to Jingmen in the south, and then includes the southeast triangle area of Jingzhou west of the Yangtze River and the Hanshui River and Yiling Mansion west of Jingzhou, and the whole area has thirteen counties.

After the main force of Yanhu's soldiers and horses crossed the Han River, the Jinghu army was short of soldiers and horses, and second, its combat strength was not strong, and it was easy for the enemy to break through the cities by dividing their troops to defend the cities, but it was necessary to destroy all the other cities except Jingzhou and Yiling, and move the people of the thirteen counties into Jingzhou or the south bank of the Yangtze River.

Completely clearing the walls requires sufficient determination. Especially in the autumn season, fleeing will become starving people, and more people still hope to harvest the grain and bag it before fleeing, even if they know the cruelty and cruelty of the Hu people.

For Hu Wenmu and the Jinghu civil and military officials and local gentry around him, all the cities on the north bank except Jingzhou and Yiling were burned down, and all the grain reserves that could not be moved away were burned down, and even if the war was won in the end, Jinghu would be crippled. Millions of people left their homes and returned to their homes after the war, and the resettlement of them was not something that Jinghu could afford at that time.

Until after the fall of Nanyang, seeing that the Huaidong Army resolutely landed in the eastern Hubei region, in Hu Wenmu's heart, he did not want the Huaidong Army to attract the main force of Yanhu and let Jingzhou escape.

It was not until it was confirmed that Yanhu's main force crossed the Han River in Fancheng, and Hu Wenmu knew that the battle of Jingzhou was a catastrophe that he could not escape, and only then did he really make great efforts to clear the wilderness.

It's just that the time left for Hu Wenmu has become extremely urgent, he originally hoped that Jingmen's side could block it, so as to buy him more time, and when he could no longer be punctual, he would consider withdrawing Jingmen's guards.

Hu Wenmu didn't expect that the Lianzhai on the front line of Pengwanling, flanked by Jingmen, would fall in just one or two days. The fall of the outer fortifications made Jingmen fall into an isolated city, and the enemy army inserted it on a large scale, and even copied Changlin, Dangyang, Herong and other cities in depth, completely cutting off Jingmen's retreat.

There were 5,000 defenders of Jingmen, and tens of thousands of people who had taken refuge in the city, but because Hu Wenmu was hesitant to defend Jingmen, the grain reserves left in Jingmen were very limited. Unable to take care of the civilians who entered the city to avoid the scourge of war, Jingmen saved some grain, which might be enough for the defenders to eat for a month.

Having a month's ration doesn't mean that the garrison can hold out for a month. In the face of the bloody massacre of Yanhu and the new annexed army, the defenders thought more about: if they don't surrender, they will run out of food after a month, and when the time comes, the people in the city will be slaughtered. The low morale of the generals in Jingmen City can be seen from this, after all, not just a soldier or horse can play the classic of the last battle.

***************

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the Chuvaba State, and later the Ba State, moved the Ba people to settle in the eastern Hubei region at the western foot of the Huaishan Mountains on a large scale, which also created the characteristics of the Qihuang region and the surrounding prefectures and counties with different folk customs, isolation and fierce folk customs.

In addition, the south pulse mountain of Huaishan is lofty, winding and stretching, the mountain shape is undulating and unprovoked, and the terrain is dangerous and difficult to attack; The mountains and streams are complex, the forests are abundant, and the mountains are rich in products, so they are easy to keep.

When the Jingxiang people were in turmoil, the people in eastern Hubei were the most disturbed, between the mountains at the southwest foot of Huai Mountain, there were 48 villages, known as Qihuang 48 villages. Later, the seven great Kou who were tied with Liu An'er and Luo Xiancheng, Gong Yuci and Chen Liang, who called himself the Black Sky Demon God, were all born in Qihuang Forty-eight Villages.

But after ten years of civil unrest and Luo Xiancheng's intention to make eastern Hubei a buffer zone on the periphery of Suizhou, Qihuang and other places are completely dilapidated, and occasionally some displaced people hide in the mountains and live in barren mountains.

With Huangzhou as the main camp, the main force of the Huaidong Army extended to the northwest and protected the flanks from attack: Wuyun Village, Shima Village, Tazihe Village, Xiaoqi Village and other villages, in fact, they were re-cut and set up camp on the site of the original Qihuang 48 Village.

Zhaohu cottage is the front camp of the attack on Huangpi.

Yu Wencheng was the first to lead his troops into the Zhaohu Mountain area, and the Huangpi enemy general Sun Jichang fought for control of the periphery of Huangpi.

Ao Canghai was ordered to control the generals to attack Huangpi, and built the front camp on Zhaohu Mountain.

Although the name is according to the lake and mountain, it is actually just a small mound more than ten zhang high and two miles in circumference, and it is only five miles away from Huangpi City.

The south of Zhaohu Mountain is Wufu Lake, the largest lake in Huangpi, and the post road from Huangzhou to Huangpi passes between Wufu Lake and Zhaohu Mountain.

Although Wufu Lake is twenty or thirty miles around, and the south of the lake is only ten miles away from the Yangtze River, the water surface of the lake mouth is filled with sand and silt from the Han River, and the people of Hanjin and Huangpi have built embankments and fields for hundreds of years, making the waterway into Wufu Lake extremely narrow and shallow, but it also ensures that there is a waterway from Laolongzui to the front base camp.

Because Zhaohu Mountain and Huangpi City are very close to each other, Sun Ji often stands on the tower of Huangpi East City, and can clearly see the clear shape of the Huaidong Army's Zhaohu Mountain camp. Based on a rough estimate of the strength of the Huaidong Army based on the number of battle flags, as of today, the strength of the Huaidong Army entering the Zhaohushan camp is almost 40,000 people.

Sun Jichang scolded secretly in his heart: There are only more than 80,000 foot soldiers who can cross the river in Huaidong to participate, and now half of them have been assembled in front of Huangpi, which turtle son said that Huangpi will not be the main direction of attack of the Huaidong Army?

scolded and scolded in his heart, Sun Jichang had 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and Luo Xiancheng sent the partial general Ma Kuixiong to lead 10,000 soldiers to help, and he controlled it, thinking that there were 30,000 soldiers and horses in Huangpi City to guard for a month or two, and it would not be a problem.

In addition, there are more than 30,000 soldiers and horses in Hanjin Yangxiong in the west, more than 40,000 soldiers and horses in Zhongrong in Tiemen Mountain in the east and west, and more than 20,000 soldiers and horses in Shicheng by Meng Anchan and Su Tingzhan......

And now Zhou Fan and Tian Chang have led their troops to besiege Jingmen, Han Li and Pu Jieshi have led their troops to bypass Jingmen and take Changlin, Dangyang, and Herong in the north of Jingzhou. 、

Thinking that as long as he held on to Huangpi for a month or two, Sun Jichang would still be confident that when the time came, he would be able to withstand the attack of the main force of the Huaidong Army, and reward him for his merits and deeds, how could he be much more bullish than Yang Xiong, Zhong Rong and others.

"General, do you see that the Huaidong cavalry seems to be heading north for Changxuan Ridge?" The general Ji Shiben saw that there was a cavalry in the Huaidong Army out of the camp, and instead of coming straight to this city, he went to Changxuanling in the north of Huangpi, which was very strange.

"It's not good, they want to cut off our food routes, the general will send troops out quickly!" Sun Jichang's staff member Huang Quanxue was an old talent with a sharp face and monkey cheeks, and he saw that there were more than 2,000 Huaidong cavalry, bypassing Huangpi City and inserting it in the direction of Changxuanling in the northwest, and subconsciously thought of the problem of the grain road.

"it!" Ji Shi had long been unaccustomed to Huang Quanxue's lack of learning, so he wanted to pretend to be a strategist to calculate there, and said mercilessly, "Huangpi stores grain, which is enough for three months, and the grain of Hanjin depends on Shicheng to be transported from Hanshui." The two thousand cavalry in Huaidong, even if they are let in, can they still cut off the flow of Hanshui? If they wanted to rob the grain road by land, they could only go deep to the north of Nanyang. To transport grain from Fangcheng to Nanyang, you have to take the land route. Ho, that can be eight or nine hundred miles, I don't know if they dare to go over? I see, the Huaidong cavalry is a feint, if we go out of the city to intercept, we will be deceived, let them be entangled outside the city, and then the main force of the Huaidong army will attack and fight! At the moment, we don't care about anything else, as long as it is serious to defend Huangpi City. Even if the 180,000 Huaidong Army bypasses Huangpi City, we will turn a blind eye and let them go, and there will be soldiers and horses on the side of Shicheng to intercept it! ”

If Sun Jichang didn't come out of Huangpi City, the Huaidong Army could directly bypass Huangpi City and attack Shicheng, after all, the time was short and the supplies were scarce, and there was no way to establish enough blockade fortresses on the periphery of Huangpi City. But it's okay to do this, so that Sun Sun Jichang has enough excuses to concentrate his soldiers and horses on the defense of Huangpi City.

At the beginning, Beiyan entered the Central Plains of Kou, and when it tore through the Datong defense line, but it was difficult for Datong to attack for a while, it chose to directly bypass Datong City and enter Jinbei, Yanji and other places.

However, Sun Jichang did not believe that the Huaidong Army would be so bold that it would bypass Huangpi City and go directly into the hinterland of Jingxiang alone.

It's not that Sun Jichang thinks that the Yanbei cavalry must be stronger than the Huaidong army, the key is the supply of grain and grass.

At that time, the Yandong tribes broke through the side wall and entered Kou Jinzhong and Yan Ji, and in the hinterland of Jin Zhong and Yan Ji, they could get sufficient supplies by capturing a city at will. Moreover, the soldiers and horses of Yandong were mostly cavalry, with a wide range of activities and quick movements, and they would not easily entangle the soldiers and horses of the Yue Dynasty in Yanjing at that time.

The main force of the Huaidong Army's infantry battalion wanted to bypass Huangpi City and go directly into the hinterland of Jingxiang, so naturally it could not carry a large amount of baggage, and if it could not quickly capture Shicheng, Suizhou and other big cities, it would be difficult to get supplies in the dilapidated hinterland of Jingxiang. The Huaidong Army, on the other hand, entered the hinterland of Jingxiang mainly with foot soldiers, and its movement was slow, and it was easy to entangle the cavalry in Shicheng, and once the small amount of supplies it carried with it was eaten, the whole army would fall into a desperate situation of running out of food.

Therefore, Ye Ji, Luo Rong and others even thought that even if the Huaidong Army captured Huangpi City, it would be impossible for Lin Jian to send the main force of the infantry battalion to go deep alone.

Sun Jichang often agreed with the judgment of the subordinate general Ji Shiben, and also believed that this was a feint by the Huaidong Army to lure the enemy, and he naturally had a reason to remain immobile in Huangpi City.

After dark, Sun Ji often dined in the city, and Ji Shiben, who was in charge of the city tower, suddenly sent someone to invite him over.

Sun Jichang only when the Huaidong army advanced to the city at night, changed the armor and ran to the city tower, did not see the Huaidong army to attack, looked at the direction of Zhaohu Mountain, in the moonlight, there was a convoy out of the camp to go in the direction of Changxuanling, the two train convoys stretched out for three or four miles long, and the convoy flanked by three thousand armor guards......

"What is Huaidongjun going to do?" Sun Ji often asked Ji Shiben in confusion.

"The scout cavalry came back and told me that the two thousand Huaidong cavalry heading to Changxuanling in the afternoon stopped at the west foot of Changxuanling, and if the Huaidong convoy and foot soldiers also went there, it was likely to build a fortification on our flank and completely block Huangpi in the inner line!" Ji Shiben said.

"Sealed but not encircled?" Sun Jichang was even more puzzled. The Huaidong army wants to surround Huangpi City, build a fortress in Zhaohu Mountain, and then push the soldiers and horses to the bottom of Huangpi City, dig a trench wall, and then completely seal the defenders in Huangpi City, and then slowly fight Huangpi City. The same is true of the usual siege steps.

Now the Huaidong Army built a large camp in Zhaohu Mountain, which is five miles away from Huangpi City, and suddenly bypassed Huangpi City and ran to Changxuanling, which is directly north of Huangpi City and fifteen or sixteen miles away from Huangpi City, to build a fortress, so Sun Jichang couldn't figure it out - even if the Huaidong Army wanted to completely block the passage of soldiers and horses from Tiemen Mountain to aid Huangpi, the fortification should also be in the northeast direction of Zhaohu Mountain, not in the northwest direction of Zhaohu Mountain and the north direction of Huangpi City......

"Will the Huaidong Army really want to bypass Huangpi and go directly to the hinterland of Jingxiang alone?" Ji Shiben was not confident at this time, and guessed, "Lin Tie is out of luck with this trick, and only in this way can it be explained." In this way, the Huaidong army does not have to waste too many soldiers and horses to besiege Huangpi City, and can establish a supply base in the north of Huangpi City......"

Huang Quanxue said: "What should I do, do you send troops out of the city and ask the Huaidong Army to build a stronghold in Changxuanling?" ”

"Spank a fart!" Sun Jichang shook his head and said, "We are just responsible for guarding Huangpi, and we will send a quick horse to Shicheng to announce that if the Huaidong Army wants to go deep into the hinterland of Jingxiang in order to relieve the siege of Jingzhou, it will inevitably pass through Shicheng, then leave these things to Meng Anchan and Su Tingzhan for their headaches...... "It would be better if the matter of sending death could be handed over to others to do it for them, the Huaidong Army is determined to go deep alone, and the soldiers will be extremely sharp, and if they want to intercept, they should also be responsible for Meng Anchan and Su Tingzhan who are guarding Shicheng. It's okay to take a small advantage.

In the middle of the night, the scouts found out that the 3,000 foot soldiers in Huaidong flanked more than 100 baggage vehicles, and they really wanted to join the cavalry at the western foot of Changxuanling in the afternoon, and the baggage vehicles stopped there to unload a large number of supplies, and there were indeed signs of building another stronghold.

After Sun Jichang sent a letter to ride to the direction of Shicheng to report the news, he couldn't sleep for an hour on the bed, so he woke up Hu Wei: "Huaidong soldiers and horses are coming down the city, it seems that they are about to attack the city......
