Centipede Mountain.

Since being defeated by Yang Zong, Chen Sheng led the remaining troops to hide here and keep a low profile, licking his wounds. After almost half a month of rest, he finally recovered some vitality. Although his men did not have the 500,000 people at their peak, they relied on the food stored here to gather 70,000 to 80,000 again.

"Brother, I don't know what's going on recently. There are fewer refugees nearby. We walked through several villages and couldn't find anyone."

Hou San's face was quite depressed. Half a month ago, he was a big leader who commanded 6,000 people and was full of energy. Now he is only a hundred old, weak, sick and disabled. Everyone is about to come out again. What can he do with these 100 people? At that time, I'm afraid he can't even drink soup.

Although he is the old man who is following Chen Sheng to start a business, if there are not many people under his command who can accomplish things, the other leaders will not obey him.

"No, I remember there were many refugees around before, but where have they all gone now? Have you ever seen it in the county town?"

Chen Sheng frowned. Laiyang Mansion lacked everything, but there was no shortage of hungry people. Otherwise, he would not have been able to pull up an army of 500,000 so quickly a few days ago.

"Look, my brothers and I have searched all the Anyang County, and we can't find any one. Even the old guys who had been there before were gone."

"This is strange? Have you sent someone to other counties to check?"

Chen Sheng asked.

"There are only Shangyang County nearby, but Yinyang County occupied by Liu Feng, whom Liu Feng has heard from the south say that the imperial army has been encircling the boy recently, so I have not gotten there."

Hou San carefully looked at Chen Sheng's face and tentatively said, "How about I let someone go and see it now."

“No need.”

At this time, a dull voice came in from outside. When the two turned around, they saw the military advisor Xu Ye walking in from outside with a stern face.

"Military advisor, are you back? Get a stool to the military advisor."

Chen Sheng hurriedly said to Hou San.

"Lord, fortunately, Ye has not been humiliated and invited the two leaders, the Mountain Tiger and the Earth Dragon, to return. They are now outside."

Xu Ye bowed to Chen Sheng and said.

"Very good!"

Chen Sheng was overjoyed when he heard this. After being defeated by Yang Zong, in order to regroup in a short period of time, in addition to gathering hungry people everywhere, he also sent military advisor Xu Ye to contact several other defeated rebels in Laiyang Prefecture, preparing to win them over to come and plan together to jointly plan major events.

"Military advisor, how many men did they bring?"

"A total of 50,000 troops, including 8,000 elite soldiers who have seen blood and 300 cavalry!"

"cavalry!?"

Chen Sheng looked shocked, "Military advisor, are you right? They really have cavalry?"

Chen Sheng couldn't help but be surprised. After all, not everyone can afford to raise cavalry. War horses are not as slow as horses. You can't just eat grass, and the cost is quite large.

"It's right. Before the rebellion, the Dragon Singer of the Earth was born as a horse thief, and the three hundred cavalrymen were his team."

"So that's it. Let's call the other leaders over and let's go out to welcome the distinguished guests!"

In order to show their importance to the arrival of the two, Chen Sheng brought the leaders of all sizes and big in the village to greet them together.

The Dragon Tongshen of the Sitting Land was a man in his thirties with a rebellious face, wearing a thick red cloth robe, with an exquisite scale armor inside, and a cold light. His hair was hanging a lot, covering one eye, and a hideous scar could be seen.

Standing next to Tong Shen was Zhu Wenshan, the tiger who was overturned by the mountain. He was also in his thirties, white and fat, wearing a robe, and didn't look like a giant bandit with tens of thousands of troops at all.

Behind the two were more than ten strong men, each of whom was full of treble. They knew at a glance that they were not someone to mess with.

"Haha, two of you came from afar. Chen was in a faraway place to welcome you. I set up a banquet in the mountains to welcome you. Please come in."

"Captain Chen is polite, then we should be respectful."

Zhu Wenshan, the tiger crossed the mountain, interjected with a smile.

"Come on, let's go in."

Chen Sheng smiled and held the hands of the two of them left and right, and walked side by side in the hall of the village.

In the hall, Chen Sheng was willing to let Gao sit on his head, Tong Shen and Zhu Wenshan were separated. After everyone sat down, some beautiful women served with hot wine and food.

Many women who brought wine and food were directly pulled into their arms by some big men and put them on.

"Come on, everyone has done it. When you come here, you will be like your own home. Don't be polite!"

"Brothers, let's pay a cup to Chief Chen!"

"Respect the leader Chen!"

"Done!"

"Dry!"

······

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food.

Seeing that the people below had almost eaten, Chen Sheng asked someone to remove the food and drinks, and then formally said, "Two brothers, I won't go around with you anymore. This time I asked the military advisor to invite you over, but in fact I wanted you to work together with me to make a big deal. I wonder what you two meant?"

Zhu Wenshan looked at Tong Shen opposite him and said, "Captain Chen, I have long admired your reputation and have been in love with you for a long time. Otherwise, I would not have come with Mr. Xu. I am willing to carry my saddle for the leader, hold my whip and kick it, and work hard for the horse!"

After saying that, the two of them stood up at the same time as if they had already rehearsed earlier, and bowed to Chen Sheng, who was on the top of the head with one knee.

"well!"

Seeing this, Chen Sheng was overjoyed and hurriedly helped them up, "Get up quickly, two brothers, we will share life and death from today. We will share blessings and difficulties together!"

"Brother!"

The two of them had red and excited faces, but they only knew whether they really wanted to bow to Chen Sheng, the eldest brother, and they were the only ones who knew.

In this way, after the joint venture, Chen Sheng added another 50,000 troops, and his troops exceeded 100,000.

After relocating Zhu and Tong's men, Chen Sheng called Xu Ye to the front.

"Military advisor, come and have a look. Now we have 100,000 troops. This time, when you come out, where do you think it is safer to attack first?"

Chen Sheng has been hiding in Centipede Mountain these days and has been impatient. He looked at the map on the desktop and asked Xu Ye who was walking in.

"Lord, you may not know what's going on outside in the mountains. Laiyang Mansion has fallen into Liu Feng's hands!"

Xu Ye sighed.

"What!? How is this possible? Just Liu Feng's stinky boy? He only had a few troops to capture the entire Laiyang Mansion? Impossible, impossible."

Chen Sheng shook his head repeatedly, looking like a military advisor who didn't want to joke.

"Lord, this is true. Yang Zong was also punished by the court for this incident. Now he is being punished to the capital for being punished. This incident has spread all over the world."
