Otherwise, how could Liu Wei's guards on Mount Beiman have known in advance that the enemy would attack the mountain that night, hidden their warhorses, killed three hundred elite soldiers, and then jumped out of the encirclement under the cover of night?

There must be a traitor who leaked the information to Liu Wei beforehand, which is why he knew that someone was going to attack them that night!

Yuan Shao's sharp, eagle-like eyes swept over the officers around him.

They all seem suspicious.

Despite his doubts, Yuan Shao still arranged for 1,300 infantrymen to form a battle formation around the hill three miles away, and placed them under the command of Bao Xin.

They used every means possible to stop the cavalry, such as digging horse traps and cutting down trees to make chevaux-de-frise.

The five hundred cavalry, led by Chunyu Qiong, were positioned in the rear as mobile support.

In addition, there were fifty guards and seventy or eighty assassins protecting He Jin.

While Yuan Shao was deploying his troops, Liu Wei on the hill remained calm and unhurried.

"The enemy has formed a battle formation with infantry and laid fortifications, intending to surround us here. My lord, are we just going to stand by and watch them do nothing?"

Yan Da was in a great hurry.

He had just experienced the ferocity of Yuan Shao's infantry; the seventeen riders of Yanyun had fought them head-on but had not gained the slightest advantage.

If infantrymen continue to arrive.

Those hundred-odd cavalrymen were truly trapped with no chance of escape!

"My lord, how about we attack the fortress, seize the crossing, and cross the river sooner?"

Yan Xiaoer also asked.

"Don't panic, you two. They won't dare to attack for the time being!"

"Once everyone has rested, we'll go and harass them."

"Remember, the main strategy is to kill and wear down the enemy!"

Liu Wei calmly finished speaking, then stood up, looked in the direction of Luoyang, and muttered to himself:

"Father, if you don't send someone to break up this fight, I'll chop He Jin up!"
