Judgment of Dayu.

Summary

The light cavalry of the imperial court, with their swift horses and nimble tactics, created a breach in the defenses of the Guandou local tribes. The imperial light infantry then secured the breach and pursued the fleeing enemies with the support of the light cavalry. The Xu Zhou garrison ordered their heavy cavalry to cover the main camp and swiftly pass through the breach, ensuring the safe retreat of the four main armies behind them. The elder of the Guandou forces attempted to organize a pursuit, but it was too late, as the imperial troops surged through the breach like a tidal wave. The imperial troops then regrouped and prepared for battle once more, awaiting the enemy's next assault. Zhen Zong commanded the heavy cavalry and personally led the retreat, ordering the archers among them to shoot down the enemy's light cavalry. As the enemy's heavy infantry and cavalry surged forward, Zhen Zong commanded all soldiers to slowly retreat to a small hill, maintaining their formation and readiness for combat.
