Ji Yuan returned to the Yu Yang County Government, where lights were already lit, and the Chief Clerk and County Magistrate, who had been hiding at home, were invited to the county government to work.
Less than half of the village chiefs in the city had come, while more than half were either surrounded at home or had fled. Still, these people were enough for Zhao Hanzhang.
Upon Ji Yuan's arrival, Zhao Hanzhang knew that County Magistrate Sun had successfully been sent out. As expected, Ji Yuan reported, "County Magistrate Sun has successfully left Yu Yang to move reinforcements from Chen County."
The County Magistrate, Chief Clerk, and all the village chiefs were silent: "..." Wasn't it said that the rebels had surrendered? Why was there a need to move reinforcements now?
Everyone looked towards General Ding, who was in the county government, and should be the most aware of the situation.
