The Era of Generals

Chapter 403  Hua Lao’s Kindness

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

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

Before the messenger soldiers came to the city lord's mansion, Chen Ze already knew about the existence of this army.

In fact, he was hoping that this army would drive over from An Luo Province bit by bit.

The reason why I can see it is because there is a person in that army, who has passed through the core of the general, his confidant, with this person, Chen Ze can light up the map and fully grasp the movement of this army .

Guo Zi.

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

First of all, he asked Guo Zi to go to 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 want to go to Bo'an City to falsely pass on Zheng Yuanyun's military order to dispatch troops.

After all, even if he used tokens to transfer soldiers, it would be a lie. After bringing them back to Nantes Province, these soldiers will not obey Chen Ze's orders, but the person written on the document, Zheng Yuanyun.

The reason why you need to get a request for help first is to make it easier for a troop in Anluo province that can obey Chen Ze's orders to march.

That troop belonged to Hua Lao from Xiyun City.

The 100,000 soldiers that Chen Ze took away were arranged by Mr. Hua for him. There was no problem in terms of loyalty. Therefore, when Zheng Yuanyun wanted to kill him later, he did not take back this part of the military power, but chose to Use foreign troops to besiege the city.

In addition, the nearly 100,000 troops did not change because the supreme commander ordered the city to be closed, and did not choose to abandon Chen Ze and surrender to Zheng Yuanyun at that time.

At the beginning, Chen Ze went to Nantes Province, and at the same time, Elder Hua also led 100,000 troops to Xiyun City.

He is the former wise general of Qingyang. Before that, he kept his name hidden in Bo'an City. It doesn't matter that others don't know about it. Now that he stands up, with his strong name, there will be a lot of responders.

If it weren't for the limit of 100,000 troops, there would probably be more soldiers who wanted to follow Mr. Hua at that time.

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

What Chen Ze wanted to guarantee was that this army tricked the defenders of Tel City and brought them to Ketan City in the name of Zheng Yuanyun. After that, it had nothing to do with Zheng Yuanyun.

After a month, the troops he had been waiting for finally arrived, which also meant that Mr. Hua was still supporting him so far, which made him full of confidence.

With the support of Mr. Hua, at least the loyalty of the soldiers is guaranteed. Chen Ze can use the new batch of soldiers with confidence.

When he defended Xifeng City before, his army strength was reduced. This time, once the 100,000 troops arrived, although they would not be as elite as before, it was not impossible to use them. In this way, his total army strength reached 200,000.

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

With this group of fresh troops, Chen Ze can finally be liberated and start doing something.

Otherwise, his combat exploits will almost bottom out.

At that time, in order to obtain Wang Ping's general skill, he had spent a huge amount of military merit points, so that he only left 500,000 in his body as a spare.

Then there is a month of only going out but not going in.

Although he didn't go to draw generals anymore, he was sitting in Ketan City, using the instant call function, and even the video function to remotely command the battle situation in various places, all of which required military exploits.

Especially for the video call function, he doesn't dare to turn it on whenever he wants like before, but only dares to turn it on for a short time when the situation is necessary.

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

Ninety-seven thousand eight hundred.

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

If Mr. Hua's troops don't come again, he will probably lose contact with all his confidantes who have been sent out in another ten and a half months.

After receiving the report from the messenger soldier, Chen Ze, who was already prepared, quickly left the City Lord's Mansion, and rushed to the gate of the city under the escort of a group of personal guards.

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

With Guo Zi present, Meng Yang was the first to greet him, knowing that this was an absolute friendly army, how could he stop him, so when Chen Ze arrived, it was the time when Guo Zi came to answer his orders.

"Brother, everyone is here!"

Guo Zi walked up to Chen Ze, laughed loudly and said, "My old Guo is still very reliable, right?"

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

Guo Zi knew what he was looking at, so he moved closer and said in a low voice: "Old man Hua said that he will not come when he is too old, but he said that it is not useless for him to stay in Xiyun City, at least he can raise some more troops."

Chen Ze nodded. He didn't pay too much attention to the route of Guo Zi going back to move the reinforcements. After all, it was a safe route. He only needed to pay attention to Guo Zi's movements every day. Apart from directing him to connect with Gu Qingfeng's team members, he never spoke to him.

However, Hualao's failure to come was not beyond his expectation.

The other party is the famous Qingyang wise general, if he also came, with his reputation back then, every soldier here counted as one, who would listen to him, Chen Ze.

Even if Mr. Hua didn't say a word here, since he was here, someone would definitely come to ask for his opinion on any orders from Chen Ze, which was extremely troublesome.

Furthermore, although Hua Lao and Chen Ze are both smart and smart, they are people from two different worlds after all. There are still differences in vision, military thinking, and so on.

If he came, if Chen Ze's order made him feel inappropriate, it would be wrong to say it, and it would be wrong if he didn't say it.

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

Hua Lao knew how powerful his reputation would be. Since his own military strength is not dominant at the moment, it is better to play his biggest role at the moment. Intentions, those counselors and generals will surely flock here.

When they came, the troops they borrowed from various cities naturally followed, and they could replenish 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 that these soldiers who came here should not be returned, no one would come to him for soldiers.

Don't forget, he is still the Chief of Military Aircraft of Anluo Province in his current status!
