Huyan Qiu was the key to Ouyang Shuo's tactic working.
The current grasslands were like the back garden of Shanhai City.
The moment Di Chen's forces revealed their movements, they could not escape from Ouyang Shuo. With the Xiongnu surrendered soldiers and the sentries, they could capture Di Chen’s every action.
Very quickly, they crafted a complete plan to ambush Di Chen.
……
10th day, morning of the battle.
Di Chen was leading his troops up the grasslands.
After their attempt to ambush Ouyang Shuo, Di Chen, Zhan Lang, and Sha Pojun had split up and gone their separate ways.
The other Lords had varying fates. Some were destroyed and backed out of the battle, some gave up and focused on branch quests, while others continued forward in hopes that they would get lucky. On the entire grasslands, no more Lords traveled together.
