Longxiang Ferry's dumb boat could accommodate two vessels simultaneously, and at the moment one large and one small boat were docked. A total of five gangplanks were connected at the ferry terminal, four extending to the larger boat and only one to the smaller. People continuously disembarked from both sides.
From the larger vessel, all those who disembarked were monastic soldiers clad in yellow armor, wielding long staves. They departed the ship via four separate routes. In less than three hours, a total of one hundred thousand had disembarked, meaning that on average about five people came ashore every second, a pace almost unbelievably fast.
