Zhao Hanzhang pointed to a patch of forest ahead, stating that it would serve as a cover, and behind it was a small hill that could act as a barrier.
Lu Xiyuan was about to comment that setting up camp in the forest was inconvenient and risky if set on fire, but Zhao Hanzhang interjected, "We don't know when the attack will begin, so we need to camp for a while. Have people cut down some trees to build tents. The weather's getting colder; we shouldn't freeze at night."
Zhao Ju acknowledged.
Seeing that he understood, Zhao Hanzhang then took Ji Yuan and two envoys to the main tent with Lu Xiyuan.
This was an open area, with tents built along the mountain. When Zhao Hanzhang and the others arrived, soldiers were idly lying or sitting on the ground. They lazily glanced up at the newcomers and then resumed their chatter.
The patrolling soldiers merely glanced at them, seeing Lu Xiyuan, and let them enter the camp.
