The Capital, under lockdown.
Prince Xian had rallied his border troops and engaged Beiyan in a fierce battle at Wolf Cliff. The Second Prince of Beiyan was killed in action, causing the enemy’s morale to collapse; they retreated a hundred miles to regroup and recover.
Following this, Prince Xian marched rapidly northward, meeting no resistance along the way. He was now on the verge of reaching the Capital.
