The unaware soldiers below shouted in unison.
"Okay, bring your weapons and follow me to ask for an explanation." Li Chengdong led less than 4,000 cavalrymen and rushed towards Yuan Zongde's military camp.
At this time, Yuan Zongde's military camp was empty.
Others had already occupied the four city walls and controlled the city gates and drawbridge.
Li Chengdong launched a direct attack on Yuan Zongde.

But he was repelled again.

The successive setbacks made him realize that it was no longer possible to prove his loyalty.
Looking at the city gate just around the corner, Li Chengdong waved his hand and ordered, "Leave the city!"
