Suddenly, cold raindrops quietly fell from the gray sky and landed on the cold parapet.
A rumbling sound was heard, and billowing smoke and dust swept in from the north like a dim curtain connecting heaven and earth. The dull sound of hooves like thunder came from far away and got closer, shaking the earth slightly.
King Zhelan's 5,000 cavalry, as the vanguard of the right-wing army of the famous Uriankhai general of the Northern Di clan, finally appeared in the valley of the Qingshui River like a pack of wolves looking for food.
On the other side of Yanqingdun, beacon smoke was lit, and then more than ten beacon towers such as Douziling lit beacons one after another.
Jingbian Military Town, Wuzhou City and Shuozhou City in the rear immediately entered a state of preparation for war.
Zhendi Fort fell into deathly silence in an instant, with only the sound of flags fluttering in the wind and the heavy and suppressed breathing of the soldiers.
Shi Yong looked at the densely packed Tartar cavalry below the city and licked his cracked lips. Instead of fear, his eyes burned with a burning desire to fight.

Inside Zhendi Fort, most of the soldiers hid behind the battlements, with bows and crossbows strung and rolling logs and stones ready, watching the movements of the Tatars coldly, like dormant beasts.
In Yinzhou and Weizhou, the commanders Tian Qing and Lin Feng were also under the siege of the Tartar army.
Yinzhou is Timur's 3,000 cavalrymen who came from Shulechuan, and Weizhou is King Loufan's 7,000 troops who came from the southern grasslands of the desert!
The Murong tribe, which was based on the outskirts of Yinzhou, had already retreated into Yinzhou City.
Murong Chunhua also stood on the city wall of Yinzhou, waiting for orders.
He kept his promise and did not betray Zhao Muyun because of his "death".
The three states of Shuo, Yin and Wei are facing an unprecedented test.
