The Xianxia Ancient Road can be traced back to the Han Dynasty.

Schematic diagram of Xianxia Pass

After the Jin Dynasty, the Xianxia Ancient Road became an important transportation route to the Central Plains.

Because the naturally formed mountain roads have many winding and rugged parts, only pedestrians can pass, not carriages.

In the fifth year of the Qianfu reign of the Tang Dynasty (878 AD), General Huang Chao led an army of hundreds of thousands through Xianxialing, cut through the mountains and opened a road of 700 miles to Jianzhou (Jian'ou, Fujian).

Since then, the Xianxiaguan Ancient Road has become an important road between Zhejiang and Fujian provinces.

It is known as the throat to Fujian and is a place that military strategists must fight for.

Zheng Zhilong, who had returned to Fujian several months ago, had already received the news.

He ordered Zheng Hongkui to guard Xianxia Pass.

He ordered Zheng Zhibao to guard Shanguan, the important road from Jiangxi to Fujian.

He and Shi Fu guarded Fuzhou, preparing to deal with the Guanliao Dengjin navy that was heading south.

On the 28th day of the first lunar month, Li Dingguo led the vanguard troops to Xianxialing.

Xianxia Pass is located in Xianxia Mountain Range, with cliffs on both sides of the road.

There is a situation where one man is blocking the pass and ten thousand men are unable to break through.

Li Dingguo thought he would face a tough battle.

When they arrived at Xianxia Pass, they found that it was empty and there was not a single soldier guarding it.

Li Dingguo was very alert: "Could it be... an ambush?"

While they were in doubt, the scout came to report: Zheng Hongkui sent someone to deliver the message that he intended to surrender.
