Seeing Chen Ze turning around and leaving, Ma Hui breathed a sigh of relief.

If the other party insists on staying, he really doesn't know what to do.

Fortunately, with Chen Ze's departure, the huge stone in Ma Hui's heart finally fell to the ground.

He put his eyes on Huang Shi's face and said with a smile: "Brother Huang, we haven't seen you for a long time. I really miss you very much. I will definitely not come back until I get drunk tonight!"

Huang Shi smiled and rode together with Ma Hui. He turned around and waved, saying: "Let the army stay where it is. After Brother Ma and I drink hard all night, we will hit the road again tomorrow!"

These words won Ma Hui's favor even more. Huang Shi, like Chen Ze, is a sensible person.

At this time, Ma Hui was not even sure whether Chen Ze would really return to Ketan City, and whether Huang Shi really came from Anluo Province in response to Lord Zheng's request for aid. This was also an unknown question.

Something certain.

So if this 200,000-strong army followed Huang Shi to Xilong City, to be honest, Ma Hui would still be a little scared.

Huang Shi seemed to have noticed this, so he followed Ma Hui to Xilong City, but kept the army stationed on the spot, which relieved Ma Hui from worries.

The two of them walked to Xilong City under the escort of the personal guards brought by Ma Hui.

Along the way, Ma Hui also introduced the current situation to Huang Shi. Of course, the most important thing was to reconfirm the request for help document in Huang Shi's hand.

This sight immediately put me at ease.

When Gu Qingfeng brought back a blood-stained and torn request for help, Ma Hui could tell from that request whether it was the original work of Mr. Zheng, not to mention the perfect copy in Huang Shi's hand.

The document is completely intact, without even a wrinkle.

The document in Huang Shi's hand was actually a request for help sent by Zheng Yuanyun to Anluo Province. He was also a general of Anluo Province. It was quite normal to take out the document from his hand.

However, there is no need to sacrifice oneself in exchange for the other party's trust like Gu Qingfeng did.

It was only natural that he could produce the request for help.

After checking again, Ma Hui finally felt at ease and took Huang Shi to his temporary tent on the other side of Xilong City. While drinking, he recalled the events when the two of them fought side by side.

Huang Shi didn't seem to be in a hurry to provide support, so he accompanied Ma Hui and talked loudly until...

"General, there is our scout on the other side of the river, requesting a call!"

Outside the tent, suddenly a soldier came running to deliver a message.

Ma Hui looked slightly surprised when he heard this. He had been here in Xilongcheng for almost a month and had never encountered his own troops. He even thought that Master Zheng had forgotten about him, or that the original

Brother Zhang Hua, who came to deliver the message, caught up with the large army. Master Zheng knew that he was in Xilong City, so he did not give him any further instructions for the time being.

When he heard that someone finally came to see him, he hurriedly confessed to Huang Shi and hurried out.

Huang Shi, who had only been drinking for company, his eyes lit up at this moment. He remembered what Chen Ze had told him. He knew who the person was and what questions he would ask. He followed Ma Hui closely at the moment.

The big tent came out behind him.

Although the city protection bridge was rebuilt, it had just been built and was not very stable yet, so Ma Hui's people still blocked the new bridge, making it temporarily incapable of passing traffic.

The two sides can only have conversations across the border.

As soon as he left the tent, he followed the messenger soldier and walked a few steps to the river. Sure enough, he saw a group of soldiers waiting there on the other side of the river. He saw clearly that the leader was the same soldier who had accompanied Mr. Zheng on his expedition to the south.

A general among the two million troops in the special province.

He immediately shouted: "General Mo, what are your orders from Master Zheng when you are here?"

"General Ma, why is it you?"

When the general surnamed Mo on the opposite side saw that the person answering was actually Ma Hui, the surprise on his face was even more than him. When he was about to ask again, Huang Shi had already walked up to Ma Hui and answered.

mouth:

"General Mo, right? I, Huang Shi, was recruited from Anluo Province by Mr. Zheng. I wonder where Mr. Zheng is now?"

The other party was stunned for a moment, and when he took a closer look, he saw that the person standing next to Ma Hui was Huang Shi.

He immediately said with great joy: "Is he General Huang Shi from Anluo Province? We met once when we were in Bo'an City!"

Huang Shi smiled and said: "I am, General Mo. I have been recruited by Mr. Zheng this time. I don't know where to go to provide support?"

When the two of them started talking, Ma Hui's mouth opened, but he wisely did not speak.

Huang Shi was once his superior, and now his position is still higher than his, and the other party also has a request for reinforcements in his hand. Although the number of troops is not as large as his own, he came to Nantes Province only after being recruited by Lord Zheng.

More importantly, not only was his document incomplete, but it originally conflicted with his previous orders. Now that Huang Shi was willing to come forward to respond, he was happy to hide behind.

I heard General Na Mo from the opposite side say: "To be fair to General Huang, the reason why I came to Xilong City this time is precisely because Mr. Zheng believed in the sound of arrows at the front line. I ordered him to come here to check the situation of reinforcements. If he didn't expect it, he would encounter them."

General Huang, this is really the best thing!"

Because of Huang Shi's appearance, his doubts about Ma Hui appearing here were relieved a lot. It seemed that Ma Hui was just leading the way for Huang Shi, and the soldiers on the other side were probably not Ma Hui's men, but Huang Shi's.

Really brought reinforcements.

Thinking of this, he shouted again and asked: "I wonder how many troops General Huang has here?"

Hearing this, Huang Shi felt happy. This General Mo was very good, very good, and he asked questions so well.

He looked at Ma Hui and saw that when the two of them were drinking in the tent just now, Ma Hui had already mentioned to him the frustration of bringing 500,000 troops to build bridges and roads, so even if he said it now, he would not

It will arouse Ma Hui's suspicion.

Furthermore, his own 200,000 troops are not here, and General Mo's question is: how many troops are there.

So of course he can answer truthfully.

"General Mo, we have 500,000 troops here, but we are still speeding up the restoration of transportation here. We hope to cross the river to support them in the near future."

After saying that, he asked in a low voice: "According to this progress, it should be fast, right?"

It was Ma Hui who asked this question.

Ma Hui nodded quickly, not minding that Huang Shi answered the progress question for him, "Yes, if we have another three to five days, the bridge will be almost done, and the ships will probably be enough. We will provide 500,000 yuan."

…No, it’s not a big problem for an army of 700,000 to cross the river.”

Seven hundred thousand, including Huang Shi's manpower.

Huang Shi nodded and looked across, "I wonder if General Mo has any instructions to bring Master Zheng?"

"this……"
