The fifth and thirty-nine chapters fall into the bandits
Chen Dao made a decision, and then he began to make preparations. However, there was still a very serious problem before Chen Dao, that is, he had no food and grass. It would take several days to get to Huainan from here. This was still The result is to travel lightly.
Rushing to Huainan with his current body, he is afraid that he and his soldiers will starve to death before reaching Huainan. Therefore, he must take the lead in solving this matter, otherwise, his ideals will not be realized, and he will be pregnant. Dead in the belly.
But thinking of this, Chen Dao felt a little troubled in his heart. He had always been a good citizen before, but he had never done anything to rob families and homes. Therefore, he naturally had some knots in his heart. If this knot was not solved, , he really couldn’t do it.
After thinking for a long time, Chen Dao couldn't come up with a reason, so he decided to recruit someone to discuss it. After all, he might not be able to handle the robbery. He really hoped that someone familiar with the matter could help. Own.
However, Chen Dao didn't know who among the thousands of people under his command had ever been a bandit. After all, even if he asked, others would not necessarily tell him the truth. After all, banditry is not a serious business.[
"Arui, do you know which of our brothers has been a bandit before?" Chen Dao suddenly turned to the soldiers beside him and asked.
The man who was called Ari by Chen Dao was stunned. He glanced at Chen Dao, and then he knew that Chen Dao was asking him what his purpose was. Since the general planned to turn into a bandit, he naturally needed someone who had been a bandit before. Someone familiar with the situation can help.
Although anyone can be a bandit, it requires a certain amount of experience to be good at it. After all, if just anyone can become a bandit and do it well, wouldn't the world be in chaos?
"As for the general, I'm not very clear about this. Who knows who among these people has done this? After all, this is not a serious business. Who can tell others that he has been a bandit? In this way, I will go Ask to see who has experience, and then I will bring him to see you, general." Ari thought for a while and said.
Chen Dao nodded, looked at Ari, and then said: "This matter is related to the life and death of the entire army. There can be no falsehoods. Ask him carefully. If it is true, don't let them hide it. .”
Ari nodded when he heard the words, smiled slightly, and then said: "General, don't worry, I have a sense of control over this matter." After saying that, he turned around and walked away. In fact, Ari had nothing in his heart. After all, he thought it would be easy to find a bandit among 1,800 soldiers.
These soldiers were basically brought by Chen Dao from Xuzhou, and most of them were brought from Danyang. Danyang has excellent soldiers and strong folk customs. Presumably, Ari can still find a few knowledgeable people among these people.
The hard work paid off, Ari had a good relationship with these soldiers, so he quickly found a few soldiers who had been bandits, and he even found a corps leader who had been a mountain king.
With these soldiers, Ari appeared in front of Chen Dao. He wanted Chen Dao to introduce a few people behind him, especially the corps commander who had been the king of the mountain. Ari introduced it emphatically, After all, this person is a talented person.
Hearing Ari's introduction, Chen Dao's eyes lit up. He is in short supply of such talents now. Since the person in front of him has been a mountain king, it proves that he has some abilities. All his worries depend on this person. solved.
"You once were a mountain king." Looking at the somewhat honest and honest man in front of him, Chen Dao really didn't believe that such a person had ever been a bandit. After all, this man looked very honest and honest, without any ferocious surprise. Chen Dao was very surprised. I doubt whether such a person can lead the unruly bandits.
Hearing Chen Dao's question, the big man smiled naively. He touched the back of his head and said in a naive voice: "To tell you the general, I have indeed been in this business. Isn't this a case of government forcing the people to rebel?"
The big man smiled very honestly, which made Chen Dao have to admit that people are really not judged by their appearance. Such a simple and honest man was actually the king of the mountain who robbed people's homes. If he hadn't admitted it personally, Chen Dao would have had reason to believe that it was A Rui who was looking for him. Came to pretend.
"Don't worry, general. I've asked you many times just now, so don't worry. Tian Song's words can definitely be believed." Ari said in a deep voice. It's not surprising that Chen Dao asked this. After all, the big man in front of him will never remind anyone. This person is a bandit.
Chen Dao nodded. He thought that he was indeed a little suspicious. Who would admit that he was a bandit when he was okay? It was too late to hide such a name. How could anyone admit that he was a bandit and that he was once the king of the mountain?
But it is also strange that Chen Dao is like this. After all, for Chen Dao, this matter is of great importance. If it were not like this, Chen Dao would not be so troubled. After all, it is related to the life and death of more than a thousand people like him.
"A Rui must have told you and knows why I came to you." Chen Dao said in a deep voice. He wanted to know what this man named Tian Song was capable of. After all, he needed to be counted on to survive.
Tian Song nodded, and then said: "I know a little, but I hope the general will tell me all your plans."
"My plan is like this┈┈" Shen Dao and Chen Dao told Tian Song all about his plan. After all, his brothers, Chen Dao, can be trusted. These people have suffered with me for so long, and no one will betray them. my own.[
After hearing all of Chen Dao's plan, Tian Song nodded slightly. In his opinion, the location chosen by General Chen Dao was good. Although the situation in Huainan was not good, the environment there was still very suitable for bandits to survive. After all, Cao Cao was against They don't take it very seriously there, so they have to worry about soldiers coming to suppress it.
Tian Songnai is from Xuzhou. When it comes to being a bandit, he naturally wants to go back to his old base. However, Xuzhou today is not what it used to be. Ever since the man named Zang Ba took over Xuzhou, Xuzhou's integration and development have surpassed others. It's over. If I return to Xuzhou now, I will risk my death.
Therefore, it is best to have a place suitable for your own survival. As for the rest, with the elite of my group of brothers, there is nothing that I cannot grab except encountering the elite soldiers of Cao Jun.
After telling Chen Dao all his views, Tian Song began to plan for the future. Now, the brothers and General Chen Dao are all grasshoppers on the same rope. It is appropriate to contribute to the life and death of the brothers. .
Listening to Tian Song's clear and logical analysis, Chen Dao was obviously very satisfied with this person. He still had some abilities. Although this person looked naive and silly, his mind was very delicate. But it's no wonder, if this person Tian Song is an ordinary person, how could he be a corps commander? After all, he and others are elite soldiers in the Liu Army, and their strength is generally stronger than others.
"I think what the general is most worried about right now is the problem of food and grass. After all, we can't rush to Huainan hungry." Tian Song said in a deep voice. It was obvious that he hit the mark on the real question in just one sentence.
Chen Dao nodded and said: "You also know that brothers are about to run out of food. In the past few days, the soldiers have almost been drinking as much as water." Chen Dao's tone was very bitter, and his expression clearly showed that It's not very natural either.
Tian Song frowned. He was aware of the changes in food these days. He also knew that the current situation was already very difficult. If he failed to get his vote, then thousands of his brothers would definitely become hungry. devil.
It is not difficult to get a vote, but the rare thing is that this is the hinterland of Cao Jun. If their whereabouts are exposed, they are likely to be attacked by Cao Jun. Especially if their identity is exposed, they will really have no chance of escaping.
"Don't worry, General, this matter will be left to me. I will definitely handle it beautifully." Tian Song thought for a while and then said.
Hearing Tian Song's words, Chen Dao's expression obviously changed. This matter has upset him for a long time, but he didn't expect that he would dare to praise Haikou just after seeing Tian Song, which made Chen Dao feel a little bit sad. Whisper.
"If the general is trustworthy, I hope that the general will give me 200 people, and I will lead the people here. If I'm lucky, I can come back with food and grass at night." Tian Song didn't look at Chen Dao's eyes, he said very confidently .
Chen Dao hesitated. After hearing Tian Song's words, he hesitated. He frowned and thought for a moment, then relaxed his brows and said: "Okay, I will give you two hundred people to command. I hope you don't want to it disappointed me."
Hearing Chen Dao's promise, Tian Song smiled naively. Although he didn't say anything, he was very moved in his heart. You must know that Liu Jun is now at the end of his rope, and these nearly a thousand soldiers are probably Liu Jun's. Finally got rich.
He asked for one-fifth of the command right in one go. Although Chen Dao hesitated, he immediately agreed to him. This was enough to prove that Chen Dao trusted him very much. It's all on him.
"General, just watch." Tian Song said with a smile, and then he turned and left. Soon after, Ari came to Chen Dao and told Chen Dao that Tian Song left with two hundred people.
Ari looked at Chen Dao who was silent, and then asked: "General, do we need to send someone to keep an eye on him?" Ari was also very worried in his heart. He was really afraid that Tian Song would run away with his people, and then he would He won't come back either. After all, there are only so many soldiers now. If one is missing, he will never come back.
Chen Dao shook his head, turned his head and looked into the distance, and then said, "He is my brother, I can trust him."
"But┈┈" Ari still wanted to speak, but Chen Dao stopped him with his eyes. However, it could be seen from Ari's expression that he was very worried.
Chen Dao has no confidence in his heart. After all, people's hearts are separated from each other. If it were normal, Chen Dao might not be so worried, but now, it's really hard to say, but everything needs time to be verified. You will know in the evening The truth of the matter.
Time passed little by little, but Tian Song and the 200 people he led still did not return. At this time, the sky was slowly getting dark, and Ari's expression became more and more impatient.
