It took Su Rong seven days to lead fifty thousand cavalry from Wanren Mountain's Death Valley to Qihuan Mountain, travelling day and night.
On this day, they were fifty miles away from Qihuan Mountain.
A scout reported that a troop was approaching Qihuan Mountain from another direction. It seemed to be the Nangong Family's forces, which had previously clashed with the Second Young Master Ye at Fengming Ridge, with Nangong Yun leading them.
Upon hearing this, Su Rong immediately commanded, "Hasten our advance and intercept them."
She had received information that Vice General Feng Sheng, along with Cheng Yun, had led forty thousand troops to coordinate with Cu Cheng, the guard of Guyuan County. They had completely controlled the only route from Nanchu to Dawei at Qihuan Mountain, hence delaying them for up to four days.
