Longxiong and Huwei advanced to a place less than 300 steps away from Li Jingang's flag, and they could no longer advance!
It's like being stuck in a quagmire, where every step forward comes at a huge cost.
The flanks of the Feixiong Camp and the Yingyang Camp were under increasing pressure, and their formations were being continuously compressed.
