Upon learning the news of Huang Feihu's surrender to Xi Qi, Chen Tong, the Guardian General of Lingtong Pass, flew into a rage, scolding Huang Feihu as a disloyal and unjust person, vowing to defend the pass to the very end.
However, when the two armies confronted and the arrows were ready to fly, Huang Feihu stood on top of his warhorse and publicly denounced Di Xin's tyranny loud and clear. His voice was filled with grief and defiance, touching the hearts of every soldier who heard him.
"General Chen!" reverberated Huang Feihu's voice across the battlefield, "Have I, Huang Feihu, not been loyally devoted all my life? How could I betray without just cause? Today's actions are done out of necessity! Di Xin indulges in debauchery and spares not even the women and children of the Huang Family; how could I continue to serve such a tyrannical ruler?!"
