Evan Zhao immediately reported the unusual movement of the Xiongnu to the military governor. The guards who were resting in their clothes were quickly awakened and quickly climbed up the wall.
"What are the Huns going to do?" The general looked at the Huns' camp, frowning. He clenched the hilt of his sword with his big hand, pondered for a moment, and ordered the scouts to leave the fortress and approach for investigation.
"If they withdraw their camp, report to us immediately." the general said in a deep voice.
"promise!"
The two scouts left the fortress under cover of darkness. To avoid alerting the enemy, they wrapped their horses' hooves with coarse cloth and carefully passed through the elm forest. Halfway through the journey, they dismounted one after another and walked close to the Xiongnu camp.
