"Hehe~ Don't worry, you have to cast a long line to catch a big fish. If we follow them too closely, we may not achieve our goal."
Duan Jiong chuckled lightly, then looked at Yang Feng, "Our soldiers from Xiliang are not pushovers. Besides, our Han army is currently in Qiang territory and enjoys the hearts of the people. They won't cause any trouble!"
"The general is right; it was I who was worrying unnecessarily!"
Seeing his general so confident, Yang Feng's worries vanished.
Duan Jiong smiled and looked at Yang Feng, saying, "Hehe~ Actually, under normal circumstances, your concerns are not unreasonable. Fighting deep into enemy territory alone is indeed fraught with danger. It's just that this situation is different!"
Our Han Dynasty previously quelled the rebellion of the Western Qiang, and its prestige still lingers. In addition, the Shao Dang just fought a major battle with Shao He, and the people's hearts are unsettled..."
Duan Jiong then explained to Yang Feng in detail the advantages and disadvantages of both the Han army and the Qiang people.
"This humble general has learned a great deal!"
The more Yang Feng listened, the brighter his eyes became, and the more admiration he felt for Duan Jiong.
"Hehe~ You all still have a lot to learn, in the future..."
"Report!!"
Just as Duan Jiong was about to give his sermon, he was suddenly interrupted by a hurried shout from outside the tent.
"Come in!"
As soon as Duan Jiong finished speaking, a soldier hurried into the tent, his expression showing a hint of excitement.

"Reporting to the general, according to the scouts, a troop of Imperial Guards cavalry has been spotted thirty miles west of the camp, galloping towards our main camp!"
"Oh? Imperial Guards? Besides Imperial Guards, what else?"
As if he had thought of something, Duan Jiong quickly stood up and looked at the soldier.
The soldier shook his head. "Reporting to the general, there are only Imperial Guards, no one else!"
"Only Imperial Guards?"
Duan Jiong murmured softly, then looked at Yang Feng, "It must be His Majesty's edict. Let's go and greet it!"
"promise!"
Then Duan Jiong led Yang Feng and several other officers out of the tent and headed towards the camp gate.
