As Yizhen prepared to set up defences, a messenger from Xuande spoke to him. He nodded slowly and sent the messenger back.
As he was about to speak, 20,000 troops arrived from Zhao Yun to aid him, "Thank you Zhao Yun", then he looked forwards and said loudly, "Alright men, we begin!", he paused, "Begin building our defences, Mounted Bows you position yourselves infront, with archers infront, Spears and Swords either side of each other and prepare a double rush attack when the enemy approaches".
He looks down at the nearest soldier, "Inform Dong Zhuo of the plan with his forces to control". The soldier nodded then left to see Dong Zhuo.
Yizhen then addresses his troops once more, "We shall half the force, half shall assist Dong Zhuo and half shall assist to defend the Bridge Guard Fort. Let's go Men!"
As he ended, he turned his horse around and galloped as fast as he could until he reached the Bridge Guard Fort where he set up the same formation and sending a message to the Defence Fort positioned behind them.
(Defences complete after one turn, second row, two turns)

Dong Zhuo:
As Dong Zhuo was about to initiate a raid to show how a proper general acts, a soldier from Huangfu Song arrives and informs him of the plan and the reinforcements, "Reinforcements? For Me!", he paused with a smile, "I am so lucky".
Then he turns to his men, "Go into Formation men, Mounted Bows, Archers with Swords and Spears ready to charge. A special task force team is needed to assist in defences and inform the Defence Fort".
As Dong Zhuo laid back while holding onto his horse, he looked into the air, "It's time!", After he finished, he got into position and began moving his men and the sub unit given by Huangfu Song forward. As he moved forwards, he held his sword up, as arrows were shot at approaching enemies with the Fort assisting for those long range.
Formation: Same as Huangfu Song

Cao Cao recieves the report of Huangfu Song's advance and laughs loudly, "He's mine now!" Then he hears of Liu Bei's, "The dragon can soar high, but not this time." Cao sent a special order to Xu Huang and one to Zhang Liao, and then heard of Zhang He's plan, when it was announced, Cao and his advisors commented, "Very shrewd."
Cao and his advisors kept chatting idily, until Cao Chun was announced, he entered and bowed and announced, "Cousin, I have brought the 50,000 Panther and Leopard cavalry you requested for use. I have also brought General Zang Ba along with me." Cao nodded and had 40,000 merge with his own unit. Then he instructed Cao Chun, "You're famed for your use of this cavalry, take 10,000 and bring me Huangfu Song alive if possible, he wont know what hit him." Cao Chun accepted the assignment and charges off making twice the progress with his Elite cavalry.
____________
Meanwhile Xu Huang holding his position saw Huangfu Song arrive and declared, "It's time!", Huang shouted to his company Spearmen arm yourselves with your large shields and cover the Swordsmen, who in turn will cover your heads with theirs, and move up against the fort, united to enter and block arrows, overrun them! He gave Shen Dan command and sent him in advance. While he organzied his force for a follow up. Cao Hong also does the same with his Spear and Swordsmen under Shen Yi.
_____________
Zhang Liao positions his army ready to recieve Dong Zhuo's charge, with Li Dian to his left and Yue Jin to his right.

Xuande could not hide his smirk, everything was going according to plan... This moment of triumph was brought to a halt after reports of Huangfu Song's threatened defeat at the Bridge Guard Fort...
"What?! Lord Huangfu is cornered? These are bad tidings indeed. Our plan is in jeopardy, but we must not mobilize... Hold your position, we must not endanger other lives, we can only pray that Lord Huangfu will make it out!"
The altar was now complete, and one of the figures, identified as Zhuge Liang had headed up to the mountaintop to pray, the ground was shaking around the hay that was dropped on the ground as walls of stone formed around the hay.
"It is time! Unleash the Stone Sentinels constructed by Lord Liu Yu!"
The stone sentinels used as a signal, Zhang Fei, at the head of his unit of men cut down the wooden bridge, before retreating into the now forming maze. Reports arrived that Grand Commandant Liu Yu had appeared at the center of the maze, along with his army.
"I never thought that our plan would come into fruition, Liu Yu has done well in constructing the maze. It is a good thing we took precautions...
Ma Dai also took refuge within the forming Stone Sentinels... Whilst Liu Yu sent three of his men to Zhao Yun, bearing message.
(Time until the Stone Sentinel Maze is formed completely: 2 Turns)

Zhao Yun received the message from Songs unit, he then summons his commanders and begins to address them saying “Commanders listen up you have your orders take your units and hold the North bridge we have a plan but for it to work we must bide as much time as we can Once I give you the command fall back to the Stone maze don’t fall behind but an till then take 90,000 of the men and follow me we are moving to the North Bridge are mission is to hold it an till the plan begins.
Actions Zhao Yun and most of his forces have moved to the North Bridge and began defending it from the onslaught that would soon be on top of them

Reports:
Wu:
A large fraction of Sun Jian's forces have died of starvation and exhaustion a short while after the forced march from Jiangdong, mainly due to the fact that his men are mainly untrained and undisciplined peasants. Rebellion has begun within the Pirate Camp and the Siege Ships, the casualties have not yet been calculated... But it is feared that they number in the tens of thousands... The famine can only grow worse... Their food and supplies are wavering, as the Pirates continue to attempt the feeding.
Jing:
The stone sentinel maze has risen from the depths of the Earth, masterminded by Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, and created by Liu Yu. It is rumored that these mazes have been created in numerous locations, in the defense of the Han, however, their exact locations are unknown. Zhang Fei has destroyed the Eastern bridge, before retreating into the mystery that is the Stone Sentinel Maze. Within it is the Grand Commandant Liu Yu
Cao Cao:
Cao Cao's Army remains stable as it does away with Huangfu Song's troops just north of the bridge... His plans are unknown...
Han:
The situation is bleak for the Han, who now work in co-ordination with Liu Bei. Perhaps the movement of Zhao Yun will work a miracle...

I CALL THIS BLASPHEMY. My post is NOT finished. I just have to go to school. Posting a bit now.
After hearing of the famine and rebellion of his troops, Jian decides to temporarily retreat. He leaves Zhou Fang, Zhou Yu, Jiang Qin, Han Dang, Huang Gai, Zhou Tai and Pang Tong.
Huang Gai gazed in wonder at that magnificent structure, it was a danger, however. It was time.
"MEN! We stand here on the brink of disaster! We are to lead the charge with our fiery rocks! FIRE AT ALL ENEMY UNITS IN SIGHT! Start with the fire stones, shoot them at the Shu main camp! Then shoot lots of large rocks near the mountain, we'll hit them with a rockslide!"
It was common intuition. The leader of the Han/Liu Bei forces would be in the middle of that maze.
"THE REST OF THE SHIPS WILL FIRE IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT MAZE, WE'LL KILL THE ENEMY LEADER WHERE HE STANDS!"
He then received a mysterious letter from Zhou Yu. Gai smiled.
"That Zhou Yu... He'll be the death of me one day."
Gai then singled out 50 or so ships and told them to get all their barrels of oil, and puncture holes in them. There were 2-3 oil barrels in each catapault.
"FIRE! FOR THE GLORY OF LORD SUN JIAN, FIRE, FIRE, FIREEEE!"
The barrels of oil flew through the Stone Sentinal Maze, since there were about 75-125 barrels fired, the whole maze was drenched in the oil...
"Haha! The plan is going without a hitch!"
Zhou Yu laughed. He had taken control of all 80,000 archers on the field of battle temporarily. All of their arrows were on fire.
"We each have 3 arrows to shoot onto the maze. Be accurate and destroy that disgusting maze and clear a path for our forces!"
The archers fired their arrows onto the unsightly structure. The maze lit up, hundreds of death cries were heard, and at least a thousand men must've been killed.
Meanwhile on the shoreline, Han Dang and Cheng Pu began to unload their own men to siege the enemy fortresses.
Zhou Yu and Huang Gai have worked in co-ordination and have set fire to the stone sentinal maze. Because the flames have blocked a lot of paths, there is no way to put out the flames. Any cavalry in the Stone Sentinal Maze will most likely react to the flames and possibly charge into some men.
Huang Gai is firing various rocks at the Shu main camp, the camp should be on fire. Also, Huang Gai is firing rocks at the mountain in an attempt to cause a landslide, a chunk of the mountain will crumble in one turn. Also, Huang Gai is firing rocks on fire in the middle of the maze in an attempt to kill the Han's commander.
Most of Sun Jian's army has temporarily retreated. They will return to battle in 3 turns with fresh supplies and more highly trained men so they can endure a little hunger.
Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Xu Sheng and Zhuge Jin have temporarily withdrawn. They will reappear in one turn.
The Priest's praying has caused some mountain near the alter to crumble a little bit. Casualties should be small, but an alter made of wood would definitely take quite a bit of damage.
Han Dang and Cheng Pu are attacking the Shu's rear.

Xiahou Dun walks out of Cao Cao's tent, looking pretty pleased with himself. He grunts a threat at a guard on patrol, due to his spear not being at the correct angle. The guard straightens up immediately, eyeing Xiahou Dun with fear. Xiahou Dun stops in front of the guard.
''Unless you want to lose your job, servant, I suggest that you follow the rules set up by the Lord. Either that or be punished. The punishment is death'' Xiahou Dun spits at the guard, before turning on his heel and marching off to his tent.
He walks at a fast pace, passing officers and guards wh are frantically rushing around, making plans and doing their duties. A liutenant general under Xiahou Duns command approaches Dun.
''General Dun, what did Lord Cao Cao say?'' The liutenant asks, bringing his hands together in a sign of respect. Xiahou Dun grunts.
''Authorization to aid in the attack of Huangfu Song has been granted. Ready 50,000 men. I am going to spear Huangfu Song in his side, with Cao Chun'' Xiahou Dun says, walking towards his tent. ''Here is the list of troops I have been permitted. I have a strong force. I expect you to ready the men as soon as possible. Go.''
Xiahou Dun goes into his tent, as the liutenant rushes off to organise the men required, holding the list of troops.
[[[[[[[[[[3 hours later: 1:32pm]]]]]]]]]
Xiahou Dun is sitting atop his white steed 'Key', scanning his men. The troops stand in silence, standing/sitting bolt upright. Xiahou Dun's unit was known as one of the most discliplined in Cao Cao's army, and things were going to stay that way. Dun's stomach dropped slightly; just pre-battle jitters. Everyone got them, but nobody admitted to it.
Dun pulls his steed around to face away, taking position at the front of the army.
''Men! Listen to me! We are going to war for a cause that will benefit China in years to come. We are going to destroy the dishonorable Han forces, aided by the pathetic resistance Liu Bei has thrown together. We shall be the ones who show them how a battle is fought!'' Xiahou Dun raises his spear in the air, as his troops do the same. ''Huangfu Song brings disgrace to the name of our country, and we shall rid him, we shall crush him; we shall obliterate him and his pathetic little army of peasents. As long as you stay strong and do as I tell you, then there will be as little damage inflicted upon us as possible''
The troops cheer deafeningly, Xiahou Dun smirking.
''Now, my men, we begin our valiant and courageous march to win this battle!'' Xiahou Dun shouts, slapping his steed into a fast trot, as his army marches with him out of the west gate of the main camp...
