At the gate of the camp, Chen Dao and eight hundred people were waiting.
He came here overnight with his people.
Running all the way, very tired.
However, Chen Dao's eyes were full of expectations. He had also heard news about Lu Xuan in Pingyu County. Lu Xuan was not very young yet and had already led an army to conquer the north and south and made great achievements.
The key point is that there are no bandits under the rule of Yangzhou, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Yangzhou even attracts countless refugees every year. It is like a paradise. This shows that Lu Xuan is a wise ruler.
Chen Dao also had ambitions, hoping to follow the Ming Dynasty and make great achievements. However, although Chen Dao brought people to join him, he also had the intention of observing and seeing how Lu Xuan arranged for him.
Lu Xuan is not very old, what if he is not worthy of his reputation, is arrogant, or is stubborn?
You only know everything after seeing it.
Chen Dao was waiting, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
A group of people came from the camp. The leader was a young man in his twenties, handsome and handsome, with a graceful walk and dignity.
Chen Dao's eyes became even brighter.
Is it Lu Xuan?
I'm afraid it's impossible. After all, Lu Xuan is the leader of the party. How can he come to receive him easily?
While Chen Dao was thinking, Lu Xuan had already walked up to Chen Dao and said with a smile: "When I was in Yangzhou, I heard people say that Chen Shuzhi in Runan is a young hero. When I saw him today, he was indeed well-deserved.
My uncle came to serve me, and since then, I have gained an additional general."
After Chen Dao heard this, his scalp felt numb.
Lu Xuan was not an ordinary person. He was a hussar general and a Marquis of Wu, who was conferred by the imperial court and was very powerful. Although Chen Dao had some reputation in Pingyu County, in real terms, he was just a little-known pawn in white clothes.
Just like this, Lu Xuan personally greeted him, and Chen Dao felt extremely touched in his heart.
Chen Dao was deeply touched, and even more excited because Lu Xuan knew about him. After all, Lu Xuan even knew his first name, and it was obviously not a polite word.
Chen Dao felt Lu Xuan's courtesy and gentleness, felt Lu Xuan's warm spring breeze, and any intention of observation in his heart was instantly thrown out of the sky, leaving only impulses in his mind.
This is the master he wants to serve.
Chen Dao knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "I am from Pingyu County, and I have come to seek refuge with Lu Xiuqi. I ask Lu Xiuqi to take him in."
Lu Xuan stretched out his hand to support Chen Dao and said happily: "Although Runan County is good, it is not worth mentioning compared with the service of Uncle Zhi. I don't like that I am about to take Runan County, but I have to fight for my uncle's loyalty."
joy."
Chen Dao was even more excited.
When he was a hot-blooded young man, how could he bear such praise from Lu Xuan? He felt his blood boiling and he cupped his fists and said, "I am humbled by my position, and I swear to the death to serve the lord."
Lu Xuan said directly: "Thanks to your uncle's talent and ability, I appoint you as the bandit general. Based on your tribe, the number will be expanded to 5,000."
"I humbly obey my orders!"
Chen Dao answered with clasped fists.
He was even more excited.
He was appointed as the bandit general, and based on his own tribe, this was Lu Xuan's great trust in him.
"My lord, I am humbled by my humble position and unconvinced."
Lu Meng stepped out in one step.
He was younger and more impulsive. He was a little dissatisfied when he saw that Chen had come to defect and command 5,000 troops.
Seeing this scene, Lu Xuan raised a smile on his lips and asked, "Why are you so unconvinced, kid?"
Lu Meng replied: "Chen arrived and commanded five thousand soldiers and horses as soon as he arrived. He was humble and refused to accept his position."
Lu Xuan asked: "How do you convince yourself?"
"Have a fight!"
Lu Meng clenched his fist, waved it in the air, and said loudly: "In the army, the strong are respected. If he can defeat me, I will be convinced."
Lu Meng had been following Lu Xuan before, and Zhou Tai was guarding Lu Xuan, so while he was studying, he also practiced martial arts every day, and he looked quite tough. Now he is both civil and martial, so when he saw Chen Dao, he had the courage to fight
thought.
Lu Xuan looked at Chen Dao and asked with a smile: "Uncle Zhi, what do you think?"
Chen Dao didn't look timid at all and replied: "It's a humble position, I will stay with you until the end."
"Then let's have a fight."
Lu Xuan looked at Lu Meng and reminded: "Lu Meng, there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the world. You have to be careful. You have been practicing martial arts, and your martial arts skills are indeed good, but your ability is still far from enough."
Lu Meng raised his head and said: "I studied literature with you and martial arts with Zhou Tai. I am no longer the same Lu Meng I was. I am not weak in martial arts. Even General Gan praised my martial arts."
Lu Xuan chuckled lightly.
Chen Dao's strength is not ordinary. If this kid Lu Meng fights against Chen Dao, he will be beaten.
That’s fine.
Beat, beat, beat, lest this boy's tail sticks up to the sky at such a young age.
Lu Xuan did not stop him and directly ordered: "Let's fight, right at the gate of the camp."
Chen Dao took out his spear and stood with it in hand. His eyes were full of fighting spirit and he was preparing attentively. This was his first battle to submit to Lu Xuan. Especially when some people questioned Lu Xuan's arrangements for him, Chen Dao had to
prove yourself.
Chen Dao cupped his fists and said, "Chen Dao, please enlighten me."
Lu Meng took the long sword. Although he was less than twenty years old, he was already strong and strong following Lu Xuan. With the sword in his hand, Lu Meng said loudly: "Lü Meng, my lord, please enlighten me."
Chen Daobao did not attack immediately.
Lu Meng was not polite, he took a step forward, turned the long knife in the air, and struck down hard.
The spear in Chen Dao's hand was like a stick, and he swept across it.
The weapon collided, and the spear rebounded instantly with the help of the force of the shock. Chen Dao's eyes were extremely sharp, and his hand was extremely fast. He pumped and handed the gun back and forth, and stabbed towards Lu Meng's chest as quickly as a shuttle.
One shot, as fast as lightning.
As soon as Lu Meng withdrew his sword and before he could react, Chen Dao's spear had already stopped in front of his chest. If the spear had continued forward, it would have penetrated his chest.
Big beads of sweat suddenly seeped out from Lu Meng's forehead.
The look on his face turned red, and there was a look of astonishment in his eyes.
one move!
He was defeated!
"Accepted!"
Chen Dao took back his spear and spoke solemnly.
Lu Meng was a little embarrassed because he lost so quickly. However, Lu Meng was also a man who could afford to take things up. He put down his long sword, cupped his fists and said: "General Chen, I lost, and I am convinced that I lost. Lu Meng spoke unabashedly and was offended.
I offended you, please forgive me."
Chen Dao felt Lu Meng's sincerity and said humbly: "The reason why I can win is that I have the advantage of age. I am just older. If we compete at the same age, I may not be able to win."
Lu Meng scratched his head and said: "General Chen, you're welcome. If you lose, you lose. There is no age problem."
Seeing this scene, Lu Xuan laughed and said, "Okay, it's not a big deal if we don't fight or get to know each other. Uncle Zhi, Lu Meng, this kid, has been with me as a personal follower before. This time he attacked Runan County.
Let's make suggestions together. If you really want to talk about it, he is half of my disciples, so he has a somewhat arrogant temperament, so don't take it to heart."
Chen Dao was shocked when he heard that, it turned out that there was still such a relationship.
Chen Dao did not dare to look down upon him and said solemnly: "My lord is joking. Mr. Lu is straightforward and straightforward. This is good."
Lu Xuan waved to Zhou Yu, Gu Yong and Lu Su again, introduced them one by one, and then took Chen Dao, Zhou Yu and others back to the Chinese army's tent.
Everyone took their seats.
Lu Xuan looked at Chen Dao and asked: "Uncle Zhi, since you are from Pingyu County, you must know the situation of the Yellow Turban Bandits in Pingyu County. Please tell us in detail so that we can make a plan to wipe out the Yellow Turban Bandits in Pingyu County.
