Chapter 308 Aziz's New Request

"I finally finished this journey." Looking at the ship floating on the river not far away, Shi Xin shouted excitedly.

"Yes, it's finally over." He Pu also breathed a sigh of relief and said.

There were too many disasters along the way. Nearly half of the soldiers fled, and five people were injured in the second half. They had to stay somewhere three times to boost morale for a day. Under normal circumstances, the road that could be completed in ten days took twenty days to come. He Pu and Shi Xin had exhausted their efforts.

"Soldiers are about to arrive on the banks of the Yili River, and there is no need to worry about grenades buried on the road; and all soldiers can take boats and no longer walk with their legs!" Shi Xin turned his head and shouted loudly to all the generals and soldiers.

"Huh!" all the generals shouted. They were also fed up with grenades that suddenly exploded at some point, and they always had to worry about being blown away half of their feet. In fact, although the soldiers were repeatedly comforted, they were almost approaching their limit. If they could reach the banks of the Yili River a few days later, they were likely to mutiny.

But all the pressure they had endured disappeared after reaching the riverside, and the suppressed emotions burst out completely. Although it was impossible to mutiny again, they also used their best efforts to make a howling sound, as if they wanted to vent their depression during this period.

"Okay, there is no need to send someone to inform me this time. If Aziz on the other side still doesn't know that we will lead our troops to arrive, either pretending or suddenly become demented." Shi Xin said.

"Even so, I have to send someone to inform me, otherwise it would seem impolite." He Pu said, and then gave a soft order to a guard. The guard agreed to say goodbye and leave.

"Did Aziz really agree to lend it to our ship?" Shi Xin asked again.

"You have asked me many times, and you have also questioned the guards who came to report the message seven or eight times. What else can I say?" He Pu said.

"Aren't I worried?" Shi Xin smiled and said, "We are already ten days late. Even if there is a boat, it is impossible to make up for all ten days. We will arrive at the entrance of the valley a few days later. If Aziz suddenly does not borrow the boat, we may have to arrive one month later. It would be abnormal if the governor did not cut us down."

"Don't worry, the soldiers must have a boat to sit on." He Pu was afraid that he would nag again, so he could only give another affirmative reply.

But Shi Xin heard He Pu's words, but he wanted to say something again; but before he could say anything, he saw a horse galloping in front of them, quickly came to the front of them, dismounted and saluted, "I have met General He, Shi Jiaqi."

"Is Hu Jiaqi sent you?" He Pu recognized the man as Hu Mamu's guard and asked.

"I am indeed Humamugazi's guard." The man agreed.

"What's wrong with Humamu sending you here? Is it guiding us to the other side to meet General Aziz?" He Pu asked again.

"I do have this job, and guide General He and Shi Jiaqi to the other side. In addition..."

"Is there a place for the Hardy soldiers tonight?" The guard was interrupted by He Pu before he finished speaking.

"If the soldiers are willing to rest on the boat tonight, they will have a place to stay; if they don't want to, they can only build camps by themselves. General Aziz means that the Hardy army will rest on the south bank tonight and do not have to cross the river. If they do not rest on the boat tonight, they will also board the boat at the south bank dock tomorrow. In addition..."

"Since that's the case, let the soldiers rest on the boat tonight. Anyway, from here to the six or seven days before and after the valley entrance, you have to spend the journey on the boat. Naturally, you can only sleep on the boat at night. Even if you are not used to it, you must get used to it. It's not much to sleep for an extra day." After He Pu said this, he thought for a while and said, "Is General Aziz willing to prepare supper for our army?"

"General He, General Aziz said that since our army rested on the south bank and his soldiers were stationed on the north bank, it was too troublesome to transport food, so we would not prepare dinner for our army. However, General Aziz also said that if our army carried insufficient food, he could give our army some. Also..."

"You repay General Aziz, no, you still have to lead the way," He Pu turned to one of his guards and said, "You go to see Aziz immediately, and I heard that our army is quite sufficient. Thank you for your kindness but you don't need him to provide food. Remember to be more respectful."

"Yes." The guard immediately rushed to the riverside.

"How far is this place from the pier?" he asked Humamu's escort again.

"Not less than two miles."

"Have the ships for our Hardy soldiers stopped at the South Bank Pier?"

"No. But just by telling General Aziz that our army has arrived, all ships can drive to the South Bank Pier within a quarter of an hour."

"Okay." He Pu said, and said to another guard: "Come to catch up with He Qiong quickly and ask him to ask Aziz to order the ship to drive to the South Bank Pier.

No," He Pu immediately changed his order: "Tell He Qiong, go see Humamu first, tell him both of them, and let him and Aziz talk about them." Humamu and Aziz are both great cannibals, and talking to each other can avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Yes." The man agreed and hurriedly chased after him.

"There should be nothing else to care about. Shi Xin, what do you think?" He Pu asked Shi Xin again.

"I have no more instructions, either."

"Okay, since that's the case, call the three thousand-man commanders and ask them to take the soldiers to the dock to wait for a while. After the ship docked, they led the soldiers on board." There were originally three thousand soldiers, but naturally there were three thousand-man commanders; but after half of the soldiers escaped, He Pu re-arranged, and each thousand-man commander led five hundred-man teams.

The three thousand-man commanders came over quickly and listened to He Pu's instructions; after he finished speaking, he agreed in unison.

"We have already arranged it, so we can go to the other side to pay tribute to Aziz." He Pu said, and ordered Humamu's guards: "Let's lead the way."

"By the way, you seem to have been trying to say it out loud, but I have been interrupted several times. Is this matter important? Did Hu Mamu ask you to say it?" He suddenly remembered the past when the guards were speaking and asked again.

"General He, Shi Jiaqi, what my subordinates want to report is very important." The guard said with a look of "You finally took the initiative to ask me and I can finally say it out, and I will not be interrupted again."

"It's very important? What's the matter?"

"It was General Aziz's request. In addition to obtaining a map of the safe route, General Aziz also made another request, asking General He and Shigazi to agree."

"He still made a request? Is he not satisfied with giving a credit?" He Pu's face looked ugly.

"General He and General Aziz's request is very simple and can be easily met."

"What are the requirements?" 1603465755
