After the Chu Army hijacked the people being evacuated, the people of Xu State were devastated and terrified, and had essentially completely given up on this plan.
Not having to relocate more than two million civilians, the large number of ships that were originally intended to support the evacuation plan were quickly diverted to Wuyan City and Qingping County.
As for Le'an Prefecture, it was finished.
Now wasn't the time to hesitate, while Le Ling City still held on and there was still some opportunity to move as much of the military forces from Wuyan City and Qingping County as possible.
Otherwise, once the Chu Army captured Le Ling City and over a million troops were freed up, it would likely be a problem for even those Xu forces to withdraw from these two places.
Therefore, a large number of ships congregated in these two places, beginning to transfer soldiers and civilians day and night without rest, trying to move as many people as possible before the Chu Army arrived.
