Li Xuan had chosen to cross the river south of the Baiding Bridge, quite close to the camp of the Transport Army.
He had concentrated the elite troops of the Shenji right and left camp on the right wing and the Central Army facing the north, while the eight thousand untrained Yiwu soldiers were assigned to the left wing by Li Xuan.
——The left wing of the Yiwu Army was not far from the artillery position of the Transport Army, allowing them to receive maximum artillery support during the upcoming battle.
Also, the ten thousand infantry from the Ji State Army would enter the Transport Army camp after crossing the river to reinforce the defense of the artillery positions.
This group of Ji State infantry had a high proportion of long-range firepower. The entire army boasted five thousand well-maintained muskets and three thousand longbows and crossbows.
