Within the city!
The messenger raised the command flag in his hand, and everyone's gaze in Xianyang City was fixed on him.
"Great victory in the Wei Territory."
"General Zhao Feng of the Wu'an Camp used the waters of the Great River and Hong Gorge to flood and breach the Capital of Wei, overturning it."
"The forty thousand Wei army was completely overwhelmed by the flood."
"The Qin's Wu'an Camp captured the Capital of Wei without bloodshed."
...
The messenger galloped on horseback, unobstructed, and his voice echoed throughout Xianyang City.
Even though the messenger repeatedly recited the words of great victory and the talk of flooding,
the citizens of Xianyang City truly heard it.
"Did our Qin achieve a great victory against Wei?"
"Yes, I heard it too."
"General Zhao Feng of the Wu'an Camp flooded the Capital of Wei with the waters of the Great River and Hong Gorge. Is the Capital of Wei now an ocean?"
