When Yun Chi entered Huiyan City, the banners raised outside proclaimed the name of Mei Shuyu.
Under Yun Chi's command, the Cloud Guard purposefully spread the false news that Mei Shuyu had captured Huiyan City with thirty thousand troops, sending the misinformation to the capital of Nanyi.
Upon hearing that Huiyan City had been captured, the King of Nanyi was greatly alarmed and hastily dispatched troops to retake Huiyan City. Occupying a critical position in the rear of Nanyi, the loss of Huiyan City would mean severing the supply line to the capital—a grave matter indeed.
At the time, he was unaware that it was not Mei Shuyu, but rather Crown Prince Yun Chi, who had taken the city. The city lord, Shu Qianyuan, overwhelmed by fear and awe of Yun Chi's majestic presence, and faced with a siege by an army of one hundred and twenty thousand soldiers, had no choice but to surrender and lay down arms.
