An Jingzhi acted like a good guy and said, "General, it's not anyone's fault. We all come from poor backgrounds and have lived a life of poverty. Now we're on the brink of death, hanging our heads on the line. Who knows what tomorrow will bring? So it's understandable that we can't control ourselves."
Several people were originally resentful of An Jingzhi's complaint. They knew that they had delayed the repair of the city wall, but that did not prevent them from resenting An Jingzhi.
They didn't expect An Jingzhi to speak well of them in front of the boss, which made some of them feel embarrassed.
"Yes, big brother, Brother An is right. We've lived a hard life for a long time, and now we have to work with our heads on the line. We can't help it."
"Hmph!" Now defending the city still depends on these brothers under his command. Lou Sanma naturally didn't really want to do anything to them, but just wanted to put on an act for An Jingzhi. "Jingzhi pleaded for you today. You're lucky. Why don't you go down and arrange for the troops to defend the city? If anyone makes any mistakes again, I will punish them all!"

He originally thought that after this incident, An Jingzhi would trample on everyone else to death.

This time, Lou Sanma personally provided food and asked An Jingzhi to lead the people to repair the city wall. However, the enemy army was at the gate of the city, harassing it day and night. As soon as they finished repairing the wall, they might be smashed by a catapult from the enemy.
Lou Sanma was so angry that he led his troops out of the city several times, but was killed and forced to flee back in disgrace.
The imperial court was corrupt, and the people under Lou Sanma were not very good either. It was just luck that they were able to capture Jizhou.
"My dear son-in-law, I'm afraid that Jizhou City may not be able to be defended now. What should we do?" Chen Dan asked.
