In late 99 AG, Fire Army troops under Captain Masaru laid siege to the fortress town, which garrison was led by Captain Boqin by then. The Fire Army soldiers inflicted heavy damage in the stronghold and the surrounding Earth Kingdom camps, but the defenders were eventually able to repel the assault thanks to support by Team Avatar. Not long after, however, Fire Nation forces returned in force to resume the siege, and eventually captured it. Masaru subsequently set up his office in the occupied stronghold, and attempted to secure the surrounding areas where Boqin's forces continued to wage a guerrilla campaign.
