Ye Shikai and Shangguan Jian led their troops from Xianyang, hurrying and rushing, they returned to Heyang County in just fifteen days, with two thousand heavy cavalry and three thousand heavy infantry, all equipped with the best gear of Qin Country. Ye Shikai specifically ordered the soldiers to tidy up their attire. Since it was a triumphant return home, it had to be a dignified and spirited return.
"Old Ye, now you are the leader of Heyang County's garrison. According to the procedure, you should first go to the county office to meet the County Magistrate, as we will be working with him in the future," suggested Shangguan Jian.
"You have a point, so let's head to the county first," Ye Shikai nodded and said. The troops set off towards the county, and what they didn't expect was that before the vanguard even reached the county, they saw many people gathered outside the city gate. Obviously, they were not out for a "stroll," but had come to welcome them.
