"Your Excellency, the Minister of War is a master of military strategy. We admire you immensely."
“…”
The compliments came one after another, which made Yang Dingguo feel comfortable.
He waited for everyone to talk for a while before stretching out his hands and pressing them lightly, signaling everyone to be quiet.
After the tent fell silent, Yang Dingguo spoke:
"Now that Xiazhou has been recaptured, the rebels in Linzhou are also in a state of panic. This is a good time for us to launch a decisive battle with Li Jingang!"
"Generals, listen to my orders!"
Everyone's faces suddenly became stern and they straightened their backs.
"General Li, lead the Longxiang Battalion and the Huwei Battalion to attack the front of Li Jingang's camp!"
"Captain Qiu, you lead the Eagle Battalion to attack the left wing; Captain Mao, you lead the Flying Bear Battalion to attack the right wing; Captain Zuo, you lead the Leopard Battalion to guard the center!"
"The Longyou Road, Jiannan Road, and Pei Lun's three armies intercepted the fleeing rebels from the west, south, and north of Li Jingang."
"The rest of the departments will each perform their duties."
"This time, I will fight with the force of thunder and lightning, and settle the fate of the world in one battle. I will put down the rebellion and relieve Your Majesty of his worries."
"I hope you all will work together and fight bravely. Anyone who slacks off and fears fighting will be executed!"
"Eunuch Chen and Censor Fang are jointly supervising."

Teams of soldiers set out from the camp and headed west.
Flags are waving, swords and spears are like forests, and horses are like dragons.
The five strongest battalions of the capital of the Dayin Empire include spearmen, sword and shield soldiers, archers, cavalry and other types of soldiers.
First, Li Chenghua and the two captains Qiu and Mao divided the army into three groups, each five miles apart, and advanced in unison.
Next came Yang Dingguo's central army, protected by the Left Commandant's Leopard Camp, which followed closely behind Li Chenghua's 20,000 troops, one mile away.
Fifty thousand people marched together with great momentum.
Those who remained in the Puyuan camp were nearly 60,000 auxiliary troops and miscellaneous soldiers, as well as baggage and food.
