The collapse of the Rakshasa Army's left flank was quickly spotted by the Shuning Army cavalry, who had been harrying them. They seized the opportunity to swarm forward, intending to shatter the left-wing line completely.
However, the lines on this battlefield remained relatively distinct, having not yet descended into a total melee. Under the "persuasion" of the Rakshasa Army’s Inspectorate, the soldiers who had broken ranks due to the constant harassment were quickly forced back into position.
The pikemen also stabilized their formation under the command of various unit captains, leveling their pikes once more against the Shuning Army cavalry preparing to charge.
