"Mr. Chen, today's feat was truly once in a millennium."

Chen Sansi estimated, "The Xi River tribe just escaped the Great Wall. It will take at least a day for them to react and wait for the main army to arrive. By then, we would have been gone for three days and nights."
"Not enough."
Han Cheng shook his head, "The cavalry can cover hundreds of miles in a single day, but how far can a group of the old, weak, sick, and disabled travel? They will catch up soon enough."

Chen Sansi even doubted whether the two thousand troops from Hengkang Prefecture could still come, and if so, how many?
"I still suggest…"
