Well, that went smoothly?
Xie Liancheng was a little surprised. Taking unexpected circumstances into account, he had even thought up a few ways to deal with them, but now they were useless.
Regardless, this was always a good thing.
Thinking this, Xie Liancheng spoke again...
"Do you want to be responsible for the daytime or nighttime?"
Xie Liancheng directly threw the choice to the deputy commander. After all, he knew his own situation well, and he was doing this to avoid arousing suspicion.
At the same time, he was confident that the other party would give the answer he wanted.
Sure enough, after pondering briefly, the deputy commander spoke cautiously...
"Then this subordinate will be responsible for the daytime?"
This answer could be said to have been within Xie Liancheng's expectations.
When he had spoken earlier, he had deliberately mentioned several times that the other side had centaur mercenaries who excelled at operating at night.
As long as the deputy commander was not a fool, he should be able to figure out that if he chose the nighttime, there was a chance he would run into the opposing centaur mercenaries. That would be far more dangerous than encountering ordinary human troops.
Even if it was only to avoid this risk, he would choose the relatively safer daytime.
Thus, faced with this answer, Xie Liancheng naturally had no reason to refuse. He nodded and agreed directly.
"Good. Then I'll be responsible for the nighttime. You can take your men out to scout now. I'll sleep for a while first."
Since Xie Liancheng had said he was going to sleep, the deputy commander naturally did not dare linger. He hurriedly took his leave.
After walking outside, the deputy commander secretly groaned.
He had only just arrived after rushing all the way here.
