Sanhuang dispatched an advance army into the Central Plains, encountering little resistance along the way. Ever since Yuan Huangzhong's forces were crushed by the Sanhuang army, there was basically no one left who could hinder Sanhuang's advance into the Central Plains.
The various sects and factions along the route had no intention of putting up any resistance; all watched in silence as the Sanhuang army entered the Central Plains.
Every city and outpost along the way was taken and occupied one by one by the Sanhuang forces, thus absorbed into the domain of Sanhuang.
Yet this unstoppable momentum eventually met a hard barrier.
Shunqing City was a famed fortress in the Central Plains. The defending general, Bao Tianhua, was renowned in the Great Tang as a steadfast bulwark—he was a general with immense experience in city defense.
