Judgment of Dayu.

Chapter 297: "Rockets and Wooden Boxes: The Sanmiao Offensive". [299]



Summary

The Sanmiao Allied Forces attempted to fill a trench with wooden crates to launch an attack on Taibao Zhen's camp. Taibao Zhen countered by using catapults and rockets, igniting the crates and forcing the Sanmiao forces to retreat. Meanwhile, Tai Fu sent a swift horse to inform General Tie Tou to attack the Dragon Town General, preventing support for the Sanmiao forces. General Tie Tou, with reinforcements, decided to restrain the Dragon Town General through harassment tactics rather than a direct assault. This strategy effectively kept the Dragon Town General from aiding the Sanmiao Allied Forces, maintaining a stalemate. Despite cutting off Taibao Zhen's supply lines, the Sanmiao forces lacked the strength to decisively breach his defenses, making their strategic goal of advancing westward unattainable. Ultimately, even if they reached the royal court, they would be too weakened to succeed.
