Chapter 486
A messenger rode quickly carrying the message to the Frog Army's main camp, then whisked back to Yellow Sand City. The specifics of the body exchange were discussed swiftly via these carrier horses.
The agreed rendezvous point was set halfway between the Frog Army's main camp and Yellow Sand City, at dawn. Each side would send thirty-six men to exchange Lin Shaoyu's body.
The urgent overnight exchange was beyond Cheng Dalei's expectations, but he understood the reason. The Imperial Army was out of food and further delay could cause a full-scale mutiny.
By dawn, both parties had arrived. Bonfires were lit, illuminating a deserted ground as bright as day.
Cheng Dalei rode a black bull, followed by Silver Eye, Qin Man, Zhao Zilong, and thirty others.
Song Bokang, a man Cheng Dalei knew, represented the Imperial Army. However, Li Letian, Minister Cui, and Yuchi Li weren't present.
"Chief Cheng, long time no see. I hope you've been well," greeted Song Bokang.
