Since receiving the imperial edict a few days ago, ordering him to find an opportunity to annihilate the invading Northern Wuhuan people, Huangfu Song ordered the entire army to stay at their posts and not to go out at will.

Huangfu Song said in a deep voice, "Send someone to summon Qiu Liju immediately! Be quick!"
"promise!!"
The guard acknowledged and then quickly left the tent.
