At the gate of the camp, Chen Dao was waiting with eight hundred people.
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 he 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 has an ambition, hoping to follow the Ming Dynasty and make great achievements. However, although Chen Dao came with people to defect, he also had the intention of observing and seeing how Lu Xuan arranged for him.
Lu Xuan is not old, what if he is not worthy of his reputation, is arrogant, or is stubborn?
You only know everything after seeing it.
Chen Dao waited, 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 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, and since then, I have gained another general."
After Chen Dao heard it, his scalp felt numb.
Lu Xuan was not an ordinary person. He was a hussar general and Wuhou named by the imperial court, and he was very powerful. Although Chen Dao has some reputation in Pingyu County, in real terms, he is 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 greatly 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 will fight for the loyalty of Uncle Zhi." joy."
Chen Dao was even more excited.
When he was a passionate young man, he couldn't stand such praise from Lu Xuan. He just felt his blood boiling and he cupped his fists and said, "I'm humble and swear to serve the Lord to the death."
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 cupped fists.
He was even more excited.
He was appointed as the general of the gangsters, and based on his own tribe, this was Lu Xuan's great trust in him.
"My lord, I am humbled by my humble position."
Lu Meng stepped out in one step.
He was younger and more impulsive. He was a little dissatisfied when he saw that Chen had five thousand soldiers and horses when he came to defect.
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. 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 beat 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 became quite tough. He is now both civil and military, so when he saw Chen Dao, he had the idea of a fight.
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, so I'll 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 is a sky 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.
Knock, knock, lest this boy's tail stick 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 flashing with fighting spirit, and he was even more concentrated in preparation. This is his first battle to surrender to Lu Xuan. Especially when some people question Lu Xuan's arrangements for him, Chen Dao must prove himself.
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 after following Lu Xuan. With the sword in his hand, Lu Meng said loudly: "Lü Meng, my lord, please enlighten me."
Chen Daofeng attacked immediately.
Lu Meng was not polite. He took one 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 directly.
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 hands were very fast. He pumped and handed the gun to the center line, and stabbed towards Lu Meng's chest as quickly as a shuttle.
One shot, as fast as lightning.
Lu Meng had just retracted his sword, but before he could respond, Chen Dao's spear had already stopped in front of his chest. If the spear 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 too quickly. However, Lu Meng was also a man who could take it up and let it go. He put down his long sword, cupped his fists and said, "General Chen, I lost, and I am convinced of my defeat. Lu Meng spoke without restraint and 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 always been by my side 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 disciple, so he has a somewhat arrogant temperament, so don't take it to heart."
Chen Dao was shocked when he heard this. It turned out that there was still such a relationship.
Chen Dao did not dare to look down upon him and said solemnly: "Master, you are 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. "
