    After Huang Mingliao's great victory over Yang'an Pass, several other battlefields were also affected and began to achieve overall victory.

    Li Tang¡¯s entire northern Sichuan defense line, apart from Xingzhou and Yanganguan, the most important ones are Fengzhou and Sanguan defense lines.  Facing Chencang here, guarding the old Chencang road was Li Tang's first line of defense against the Ming army.

    But surprisingly, while the fighting at Yang'an Pass was in full swing, there was no fighting here.  Moreover, the Ming army did not even make a tentative attack. The front line was frighteningly quiet.

    However, the more this happened, the more uneasy Ren Gui, who was guarding Fengzhou, became.

    At this time, Fengzhou was already in danger without the Ming army coming to fight.

    Ren Gui has 26,000 men and horses in his hands, which seems to be a lot. Among them, Liu Shirang, the general of You Xiaowei and the governor of Sanguan, is stationed at Sanguan and has 15,000 men in his hands.  Ren Gui was worried that a single pass was not enough to defend against the enemy, so he built a new city after the pass and named it Huanghuacheng (sixty miles northeast of Fengzhou Town, Feng County, Shaanxi Province today).

    Ren Gui was the nephew of the famous Southern Chen general Ren Zhong. Although Ren Zhong surrendered to the Sui Dynasty on the battlefield, Ren Gui was very disgusted with the Sui Dynasty and once encouraged the old Southern general Wang Yong to rebel in Lingnan.  Later, Wang Yong surrendered to the Sui Dynasty, and Ren Gui abandoned his official position. Although he served as Hancheng Lieutenant again during the Renshou period, he was quickly dismissed. In the end, he defected to Li Yuan, and was appointed as a military officer in Hedong County.
