At this time, it was exactly eight years from the Battle of Huolei Plains. Witnessed by all of Yan Bei, the Xia Empire finally paid a devastating price for those actions. On the evening of the same day, the fourteenth prince, Zhao Yang, rushed to Beishuo. Integrating the remnants of the Southwest Army, he sent half a million soldiers to encircle Beishuo City again.
In the meantime, in Menglai province deep within Xia territory, Yan Xun finally received Lady Yu's messenger eagle. After reading the letter, he gazed at the ancient capital of Zhen Huang, which was no longer far away. He stood alone for a long time. Finally, he returned to the main tent and issued an order that shocked everyone, "We will rush back through the night to assist Beishuo!"
