Chapter 662
With each passing day, Cheng Dalei's influence expanded, much to the chagrin of Song Bokang who saw him as a thorn in his side. He had to eliminate Cheng Dalei; otherwise, Cheng Dalei would eventually turn around and eliminate him.
Song Bokang understood it, and so did Cheng Dalei.
It was inevitable that their armies would clash sooner or later; it was merely a case of when it would happen.
Taking advantage of this expansion at Shuofang City, Song Bokang had already dispatched several scouts into the city, eagerly awaiting a dark and windy night to set fire to the farmland outside the city.
The plan was first to cut off their grain supply and then get rid of Cheng Dalei.
Although the vast farmland outside the city was guarded by Guan Yu's Fish Army, it was nearly impossible to prevent a mishap.
