"I fear there are no fewer than twenty thousand men, drawn up in battle formation and marching toward our position. Our troops have been fighting fiercely for nearly two hours, and the soldiers are exhausted. Moreover, it's getting dark. Wouldn't it be better to withdraw and set up camp?" Guan Yu suggested to Chen Xi.
Chen Xi and Guo Jia exchanged glances, both showing surprise on their faces, "Isn't that an exaggeration? What banners is the opposing force flying?"
"The command banner of the central army bears the character 'Wen', and the auxiliary banners carry the characters 'Shen', 'Jiang', 'Wang', and 'Xia', all moving in formation, uniform and orderly," Zhao Yun said helplessly. "Our army should prepare early. If we fight another battle, it won't be so easy."
"We've been deceived..." Guo Jia sighed, "To think they would march in formation. Tian Feng really has a cunning mind, to trick both generals like this."
