Chapter 802

The border-guarding army finally appeared in the vicinity of Xianyang City.

They were already very close to the Lantian Camp.

The army's march was of unparalleled momentum.

The Lantian Camp, which guarded the peace of Xianyang City, thought that rebel forces were attacking.

They had already prepared their equipment and were ready to strike.

They hadn't received any news that a large army was coming to Xianyang.

If a large army appeared near Xianyang City for no reason and threatened its safety...

The Commandant of the Lantian Camp had the right to execute first and report later.

After all, who knew if this army was coming to attack Xianyang City?

Without a mobilization order, no army could appear near Xianyang City, otherwise, it would be considered treason!

Inside the Lantian Camp tent.

Zhang Jiao, the commander of the Commandant's army, frowned deeply.

He had also assembled two hundred thousand troops.

Plus some new recruits who had come there for training.

He was prepared to strike at any moment.

Before the army had even approached the Lantian Camp, they had learned of it through their scouts.

It had just taken some time to assemble the army.

By the time Zhang Jiao and the others had assembled the army, that army had already arrived near the Lantian Camp.

He hadn't received any imperial edict from His Majesty recently saying that an army was coming to Xianyang City.

The sudden appearance of an army left him baffled.

"Who are they?"

Zhang Jiao looked at the other deputy generals.

"We don't know who they are for now."

"But they are definitely our Great Qin soldiers."

"But without an edict, how dare they return to Xianyang City?"

"Are they trying to rebel?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be Han Xin and his men."

"The only army that has appeared near Xianyang recently is the border-guarding army."

"That is indeed possible, but why would Han Xin bring an army here?"

"After Han Xin finished his escort mission, shouldn't he have returned to the northern border?"

"Could it be that he missed the Lantian Camp and came back to take a look?"

"Do you think that's possible? Even if he wanted to take a look, he wouldn't need to bring two hundred thousand troops, would he?"

"Besides, without an edict from His Majesty Qin Shi Huang, bringing an army to Xianyang is a capital offense!"

A group of deputy generals discussed it heatedly.

The sudden arrival of the army had left them completely confused.

They had also long since sent people to Xianyang to report to His Majesty.

They didn't know if the imperial edict hadn't reached them for some reason.

In any case, they hadn't received an edict, and now they didn't know what to do.

The only thing to do was to inform His Majesty and let him handle it, otherwise, the two sides would soon be at war.

Except for the Commandant's army, no other army was allowed to appear around Xianyang City.

Unless there was an imperial edict; this had always been the rule.

But now, there was no edict, yet an army had arrived.

"Report!"

At this moment, a scout rushed into the tent.

"Have you found out who the leader is?"

Seeing the scout enter, Zhang Jiao became anxious.

"Reporting to the Commander, the subordinate has already found out."

"The leader is none other than Deputy General Han Xin."

The scout saluted and answered.

"It really is that kid."

"What exactly does he want to do?"

Zhang Jiao frowned deeply.

They had guessed it was Han Xin.

But they couldn't guess what Han Xin and the others wanted to do.

If it were a rebellion, it didn't seem to make sense.

"Commander Zhang, their speed has slowed down."

"It looks like they are preparing to set up camp."

The scout continued.

Preparing to set up camp?

The group of deputy generals looked at each other.

What was going on?

Setting up camp to rest?

If that was the case, then it shouldn't be a rebellion, right?

"Have the people sent to Xianyang City returned?"

Zhang Jiao had sent people to notify His Majesty.

This matter was too big; he couldn't solve it, so he could only report it. ===== CHAPTER 804 =====
