Ye Shikai didn't expect Shangguan Jian to come at this time. He had also come with the first batch led by Huo Ziqing to Ba Shu, but... wasn't he supposed to have already withdrawn? How come he's back with troops.
"General Huo was worried that the Qin Army might seize the opportunity to pursue. He was concerned that your forces here are insufficient, so he sent me with three thousand cavalry to support you," Shangguan Jian explained. Ye Shikai stood up and gave him a hug. Huo Ziqing was quite "considerate," understanding the difficulty Ye Shikai faced, and knowing well that Shangguan Jian was his old subordinate, which made coordination seamless and command easy.
"That's truly wonderful. I'm in need of soldiers here," Ye Shikai said excitedly.
"It seems there was a fierce battle here last night," Shangguan Jian looked at the "devastated" encampment and muttered.
