Shen Yanchuan was no stranger to this name.
Shen Youyan commanded two hundred thousand soldiers in the Northern Border. Under him was no shortage of valiant and skilled generals, all stationed along the several-hundred-mile-long border defense line.
This Zheng Baoli was one of them.
However, he did not report directly to Shen Youyan. Jingyuan was far from Shen Youyan's garrison, so Shen Yanchuan was not familiar with the man, having only met him once.
Shen Yanchuan pondered for a moment, his eyes slowly narrowing.
"This Zheng Baoli… He can't be thirty yet, can he? I remember that just a few years ago, he was merely a minor Thousand Commander. How much time has passed for him to have skyrocketed through the ranks, getting promoted several levels in a row?"
A Deputy Assistant General was a fourth-rank official, a powerful commander who could be said to hold sway over an entire region.
