Cheng Dalei, wrapped in his robe, was seated behind the commander's desk, listening to Zhao Zilong's report on the night's battle.
"So, you smuggled back a batch of weapons?" Cheng Dalei asked.
"With the mess they made, Song Bokang was too occupied with chasing Baili Sheng, and they couldn't care less about me. I figured it was waste not to seize the opportunity, so I grabbed some. Not much though – just enough to arm a thousand men," Zhao Zilong replied, before asking, "Should I not have taken them?"
"Uh, no, you did well," Cheng Dalei said, "How could we be bandits without stealing things? But how did Baili Sheng break free with his limited troops?"
"Baili Sheng has a great general under his command, without whose help he wouldn't have been able to escape. I've fought him; I couldn't match his skill."
Huh, Cheng Dalei was surprised. It was not an easy feat to make Zhao Zilong admit this.
"Who is he? How could Baili Sheng have such a powerful general on his side?"
