As for the blatant ambitions of the Chu army, the people of Liang would naturally not stand idly by and await their doom.
The Liang army inside the town had also taken the initiative to launch several counterattacks.
However, facing the Chu army, whose preparations and strength both surpassed their own, these counterattacks ended in severe defeat each time.
After suffering losses, the Liang army no longer dared to launch any more attacks.
After their victories, the Chu army was able to build fortifications smoothly, completely besieging Xian'an City.
Now that the defenses were established, Huang Xuan, aside from leaving troops to maintain the siege,
had already dispatched another detachment.
They were sent to attack prefectures and county towns around Xian'an, still under the control of Liang, preparing to complete the last link of the encirclement.
