慕容宝
When Later Yan forces reached Canhe Slope (in modern Liangcheng), the army became enveloped in darkness, probably due to the storm. The Buddhist monk Zhitanmeng () warned Murong Bao that Northern Wei forces must be approaching, but Murong Bao, believing that he was pulling away from Northern Wei forces, gave no heed. Only also at the urging of Murong De did Murong Bao send Murong Lin, with 30,000 soldiers, to branch out and serve as rear guard. Murong Lin, however, did not believe Zhitanmeng, and therefore had his soldiers hunt without paying heed to Northern Wei advances.
