Map of the Kingdom's Warfare.

Summary

Wang Shi Chong orchestrated a plan to abduct people from Qi Jun, using grain ships borrowed from Li Yang. Despite successfully capturing tens of thousands, he craved more wealth to support his soldiers. Zhang Xuan, who had conquered Qing He Jun, was not entirely opposed to relocating people back but was determined to stop Wang Shi Chong's pillaging. As night fell, Zhang Xuan launched a surprise attack on the wharf, setting fire to the ships and causing chaos among Wang Shi Chong's men. Meanwhile, Lang Ling, stationed in Qi Jun, was alerted to the dire situation when scouts reported that Zhang Xuan's cavalry had wiped out his subordinate's patrol. Realizing the threat, he ordered a retreat to Zhu A County, but his men were overtaken by Zhang Xuan's cavalry and captured. Meanwhile, Wang Shi Chong, concerned about the Flying Eagle Army's movements, was startled by reports of the fire on the southern bank, fearing a resurgence of aggression from his enemies.
