Bucephalus, upon seeing Wang Zhong approaching, immediately broke free from the soldier leading him and galloped straight towards Wang Zhong, opening his mouth as if to nibble on his hair.
But the horse abruptly came to a halt, snorted in front of Wang Zhong, and then began to nudge his shoulder with its nose.
Wang Zhong patted the horse's neck, "Don't do that; you're making me uncomfortable."
The horse forcefully blew its nose.

Five minutes later, Wang Zhong set off with a dozen or so riders.
On the map, Shostka appeared as a city spanning the Duva River, but in reality, the buildings on the west bank were concentrated around the railway bridge, and mainly, there was just the row of houses on the west side of the riverside street, and further west were fields.
Apart from the railway tracks, the railway bridge had only a narrow path wide enough for one person at the edge, impossible for riding horses.
