Judgment of Dayu.

Summary

Dayu is puzzled by the unexpected alliance between the Hong Shan tribe and the San Miao, as well as the Jiuli tribe's support for Hong Shan despite their previous inaction during the San Miao uprising. He suspects a connection to Yi Di, who has been ill and unresponsive. Dayu and Qi theorize that the rebellion of the Jiuli and Hong Shan tribes against the court is linked to Yi Di, and they plan to gather evidence against them. Meanwhile, the San Miao coalition, now bolstered by the Jiuli tribe, believes they can withstand the court's forces, despite the court's strategic advantages and the ongoing stalemate. The San Miao coalition has faced significant losses in their attempts to encircle the court's garrison, and the court remains defensive, refusing to engage in battle. As the situation evolves, the San Miao lord considers retreat due to concerns over the Hong Shan tribe's vulnerability but ultimately decides to focus their efforts on attacking the court's garrison.
