The Dan Prefecture is a place backed against Xinyi County and facing Suo Yue Ridge. The terrain is extremely complex and peculiar. Before Pei Jue even arrived, Wen Xingsu had already prepared defenses in Dan Jun City.
The troops led by Pei Jue advanced rapidly. Instead of entering Dan Prefecture, they detoured to camp at the foot of Suo Yue Ridge.
The Qi Army scouts saw the "Pei" banner and immediately felt tense, hurriedly returning to the camp to report.
"Your Majesty, Pei Jue did not lead his troops into the city to rendezvous with Wen Xingsu, but instead is heading straight for Suo Yue Ridge."
Xiao Cheng: "How many troops?"
The scout replied, "Less than one hundred thousand."
Xiao Cheng: "What kind of soldiers?"
The scout answered, "Mostly light cavalry, with some archers and infantry. No supply wagons are visible."
Xiao Cheng asked a few more questions before waving his hand, "Investigate further and report back."
The scout bowed, "Understood."
