Late at night, candles were brightly lit inside the Yamen of the Ministry of War. Yu Qian was reviewing the battle report. Chen Yuan was sitting next to him while the military doctor re-bandaged the wound on his shoulder.
"Eight hundred people were beheaded today, and our army suffered more than 300 casualties." Yu Qian put down the battle report, "The first battle was successful, but..."
"But Ye Xian's main force didn't move at all." Chen Yuan said, "What is he waiting for?"
A guard in golden clothes hurried in and whispered something into Yu Qian's ear. Yu Qian's expression suddenly changed: "As expected!"
"What happened?" Chen Yuan asked.
Yu Qian said solemnly: "I'll send someone to Zijingguan to pick up the Emperor first."
