On this day, a large number of troops suddenly arrived outside Ketan City, roughly estimated to be about one hundred thousand.

Naturally, the defenders immediately reported the situation to Chen Ze.

Before the messenger troops came to the city lord's mansion, Chen Ze actually knew about the existence of this troop.

In fact, he was helplessly waiting for this army to arrive from Anluo Province little by little.

The reason why he can see it is because there is a person in that army, who has passed through the core of military commanders. His confidant, with this person, Chen Ze can light up the map and have full control of the movements of this army.

.

Guo Zi.

After the previous blockade in Ketan City was lifted, Chen Ze sent Guo Zi out.

First, he asked Guo Zi to find one of the other three people in Gu Qingfeng's beheading team, and got a request for help document and token from the other party.

Of course, after Guo Zi got the token, he didn't go to Bo'an City to fake Zheng Yuanyun's military orders to mobilize troops.

After all, even if he used the token to transfer troops, it would still be a lie. When they are brought back to Nantes Province, these troops will not obey Chen Ze's orders, but the person written on the document, Zheng Yuanyun.

The reason why we need to get a request for reinforcements first is to facilitate the movement of a force within Anluo Province that can obey Chen Ze's orders.

That troop belongs to Hua Lao from Xiyun City.

The 100,000 troops that Chen Ze took away were arranged by Hua Lao for him, and there was no problem with loyalty. Therefore, when Zheng Yuanyun had murderous intentions later, he did not take back this part of the military power, but chose

Use foreign troops to besiege the city.

In addition, the nearly 100,000 troops did not change due to the Supreme Commander's order to close the city, and they did not choose to abandon Chen Ze and surrender to Zheng Yuanyun at that time.

When Chen Ze went to Nantes Province, at the same time, Hua Lao also led 100,000 troops to Xiyun City.

He was the former Qingyang wise general, and he had been hiding in Bo'an City incognito before, so no one else knew about him. Now that he has come forward, with his strong name, there are a lot of people who should respond.

If it weren't for the restriction of 100,000 troops, I'm afraid there would be even more soldiers who wanted to follow Hua Lao.

Then one can imagine how loyal the troops coming from Xiyun City will be.

What Chen Ze wanted to ensure was that this force deceived the defenders of Ter City and brought them to Ketan City in the name of Zheng Yuanyun. After that, they had nothing to do with Zheng Yuanyun.

After a month, the troops he had been waiting for finally arrived. This also meant that Hua Laozhi was still supporting him from behind, which made him feel confident.

With Hua Lao's support, at least the loyalty of the soldiers is guaranteed, and Chen Ze can safely use the newly arrived soldiers.

When he was defending Xifeng City before, his troops had been reduced. This time when the 100,000 troops arrived, they would not be as elite as before, but they would not be useless. In this way, his total troops reached 200,000.

This is already a strong force. Although it is not as good as Zheng Yuanyun's remaining 1.5 million troops, it cannot be underestimated.

With this new force, Chen Ze can finally be freed to do something.

Otherwise, his military exploits will soon come to an end.

At that time, in order to obtain Wang Ping's general skills, he spent a huge amount of battle points, so that he only had 500,000 as a spare.

Then came a month where I could only get out but not get in.

Although he didn't draw the general star anymore, he was sitting in Ketan City, using the instant call function and even the video function to remotely control the battle situation everywhere, but all of this required military exploits.

Especially the video call function, he now doesn't dare to activate it whenever he wants like before, but only dares to activate it for a short time when the situation requires it.

But even so, his current military merit balance is less than 100,000.

Ninety-seven thousand eight hundred.

This is all the combat points he currently has on hand.

If Hua Lao's troops don't come again, he will probably lose contact with all his confidants who are sent abroad in another ten days and a half.

After receiving the report from the messenger, Chen Ze, who had already prepared, quickly left the city lord's mansion and rushed to the city gate under the escort of a group of personal guards.

There was no need for him to give orders. When he arrived at the city gate, he had already seen the city gate wide open and the troops being welcomed into the city.

With Guo Zi around, Meng Yang was the first to greet him, knowing that this was an absolutely friendly force and how could he stop him. So when Chen Ze arrived, it was when Guo Zi came to tell him his orders.

"Brother, everyone is here!"

Guo Zi walked up to Chen Ze and laughed loudly: "I, Lao Guo, am still very reliable, right?"

Chen Ze smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and looked into the crowd again.

Guo Zi knew what he was looking at, so he leaned a little closer and whispered: "Old Man Hua said that he would not come because he is old, but he said that it is not useless for him to stay in Xiyun City, at least he can raise more troops."

Chen Ze nodded. He didn't pay too much attention to the route where Guo Zi went back to move reinforcements. After all, it was a safe route. He only needed to pay attention to Guo Zi's movements every day. Therefore, from the time he walked back, Chen Ze

Except for contacting the team members who directed him to Gu Qingfeng, he never spoke to him again.

But Hua Lao's absence was not beyond his expectation.

The other party is the famous Qingyang Zhijiang. If he comes too, with his reputation back then, who among the soldiers here will listen to him, Chen Ze.

Even if Mr. Hua doesn't say a word here, since he is here, someone will definitely come to ask for his opinion on any order given by Chen Ze, which is very annoying.

Furthermore, although Hua Lao and Chen Ze are both very resourceful and resourceful, they are, after all, people from two different worlds, and there are still differences in their vision, military thinking, etc.

If he comes, if one of Chen Ze's instructions makes him feel inappropriate, it won't happen even if he doesn't say it.

It would be a good choice not to come at all, but to stay in Xiyun City and raise some troops to prepare for Chen Ze's unexpected needs.

Mr. Hua knows very well how powerful his reputation is. Since his own troops are not dominant at this moment, it is better to play his biggest role at the moment. Although it is not yet a high-altitude statement, it only needs to be vaguely revealed that he has the ability to make a comeback.

With the intention, those advisers and generals will definitely come in droves.

When they came, the troops they had borrowed from various cities naturally followed, and they could add another army in a very short period of time.

Hua Lao didn't dare to say anything else, but he also believed that as long as he said not to return the soldiers who came here, no one would come to him to ask for soldiers.
