At the end of the Warring States period, he studied under Guiguzi, practiced the strategy of alliances and confederacies, established the Black Ice Platform, and helped Ying Zheng sweep across the ...
The next morning, as soon as the army assembled, Huang Zhong led his cavalry on a raid towards Haihun County. In this battle, Haihun County was captured in just two hours.
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, our army has already occupied half of Yuzhang!"
Huang Zhong laughed heartily and said to his generals, "Good! Pass on my order: rest for two hours, then continue the attack!"
At this moment, Wei Yan spoke up, "General, the soldiers are exhausted from the battles of the past few days. Let's rest for the night in Haihun County!"
Huang Zhong frowned and said in a deep voice, "Wen Chang, the morale is high now. We should press on and take the entire Yuzhang Commandery in one fell swoop!"
"However, although we have taken so many cities in one fell swoop, I still feel that something is not right!"
They fought their way through the city with great difficulty, and in the end, the Jiangdong army could not withstand the attack and abandoned the city and fled!
This resulted in them losing many soldiers, while the Jiangdong army suffered almost no major losses.
Huang Zhong had also noticed this, but in order to end the war as soon as possible, he didn't take it too seriously. But when Wei Yan spoke up, he began to take it seriously.

Wei Yan accepted the order and left.
As night fell, Haihun County was brightly lit, and patrols of guards moved back and forth through the streets and alleys. Suddenly, shouts of battle erupted from all directions.
The quiet night was shattered by the shouts of battle, waking many Shu soldiers from their sleep.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
Someone shouted something, and suddenly the entire Haihun County was thrown into chaos as Shu soldiers grabbed their weapons and ran out.
