Wen Si, the county magistrate of Zigui County, was born in the county. When he was young, he participated in the encirclement and suppression of the Yellow Turban leader Zhang Mancheng, in Nanyang. Later, he fought with Zhang Xian and Sun Jian under Liu Jingsheng's subordinates. Later, Lei Yuan was the prefect of Yidu and led his troops to Shu. Wen Si was also among them, and he made contributions in several battles, but because of his impatient personality, he was not favored by his superiors, so he was finally sent back to his hometown.

But Wen Si was somewhat lucky. On the way back to his hometown, he met Lei Yuan, who rushed to Zigui and punished the local bully Qiang Sect. Wen Si stood beside Lei Yuan without hesitation and waved his sword to kill his clan. Afterwards, the local clan in Zigui was violently suppressed by Lei Yuan, and Wen Si, an elderly soldier, became the head of the Zigui Wen clan and the county magistrate of Zigui County, and he turned over from then on.

After a few years of county magistrate, Wen Si's impatient temper did not change at all. A few days ago, he heard that Lei Yuan led a thousand cavalry and rushed back from the Xiajiang River and headed straight towards Jiangling. He didn't know that the nerve was touched, but he suddenly became nervous. He immediately summoned his subordinates' forces, selected strong men, distributed weapons, and prepared to pursue Lei Yuan.

When he was a county magistrate that day, fifteen comrades who returned home were assisted, and Chen Nan, the local county soldier leader, was the deputy.

Chen Nan has always been disliked Wen Si's impatientness. Now that he heard that Wen Si was messing around, he hurried over and said sternly: "Lao Wen, why are you crazy? General Lei has led his troops there, so what does it have to do with us? Now we are the prefect of Prefect Huo! Prefect Huo did not give an order, how dare you move one soldier?"

Wen Si sighed and looked at Chen Nan, as if he was looking at a fool: "General Lei led his troops past Zigui. Do you know what kind of soldiers he brought?"

"I heard that it was the Xiliang cavalry under the command of General Ma Dai."

"This cavalry, five days ago, just passed by Zigui, and said they would go to Shuzhong to participate in the training. But now they are in a hurry to return... Do you think General Lei is missing this thousand people? Think about it, how big and urgent is there in Jingzhou, so that these thousand cavalry cannot be missing?"

Chen Nan gasped.

Wen Si put a long knife in his hand and said sternly: "I, Wen Si, are an old soldier and a pig or dog. I have never forgotten how the position of a county magistrate came from, the land and wife came from at home, and you must not forget it! Now it must be the time when General Lei uses people. Who dares to stop me, I will kill him first!"

Chen Nan was sweating profusely and said, "Why is this? In this way, the county soldiers cannot move without any action. We gathered five hundred clan tribes in each family and went east in the name of La Lian. We did not cross the border first, and then we would check the situation west of Yiling. How?"

Wen Si glanced at Chen Nan: "Then, let's leave today!"

On that day, five hundred elite soldiers gathered together. Wen Si opened his own manor to provide food and fodder, and everyone set out immediately.

Only thirty miles away from the city, I was about to run into a messenger sent by Lei Yuan.

Then they heard that Jiangdong was against the alliance, and General Lei urgently summoned troops from all over the country, and there would be a big battle. Chen Nan and others were all in a state of fear, while Wen Si's face was eager to try, and his ears that were missing turned red: "General Lei has not used me for several years, which is really anxious! In this battle, I will definitely kill a few Jiangdong generals for the general to show!"

To kill Jiangdong's general, there were still a few more people. Chen Nan couldn't stand it and coughed repeatedly from the side.

At this moment, the army continued to rush.

The next day they entered Yiling. This place is an important town in the Xiajiang River. Xu Xin, a lieutenant sent by Huo Jun, took over the city yesterday, formed a strong man, and arranged city defense and guards, which was orderly.

Wen Si's army passed by, attracting everyone on the city's eyes. Xu Xin was about to send someone down to investigate, but heard a noise behind the city tower. It turned out that Chen Mi, the leader of the local clan Shen clan, arrived.

Chen Mi was originally a general of Yizhou. He responded to Liu Biao's call and raised an army in Yizhou and retreated to Xiajiang after failure. Later, they surrendered to Jiangdong. Lou Fa was attacked by Lei Yuan and led his troops under the city of Gong'an. Gan Ning turned to the command of Xuande Gong, and now he has become an important general.

Chen Mi was old, so he got rid of his army and returned to the field. He did not return to his hometown, so he led his clans to settle down in Yiling and received favors from the two prefects of Lei Yuan and Huo Jun. Because he was a long-time general, the warriors in the city respected him very much, so he walked all the way to the city without any obstacles.

Xu Xin asked: "What's wrong with Mr. Chen here?"

Chen Mi lifted his cane and pointed: "General, look, the team of people outside the city is led by the Siwei Wei Wensi of Zigui County, and will support General Lei on the front line."

"I see."

"I heard that General Lei also had a messenger to Yiling and summoned the elite troops in the city to gather...Master Xu, why don't we respond?"

Xu Xin was stunned: "Lei Yuan is the prefect of Cangwu and the governor of Jiaozhou. How can he manage Yidu? But I only recognize the order of Prefect Huo."

Chen Mi leaned on the ground with a cane and sighed: "The Jiangdong Back Alliance is coming, and it is like a tiger killing people. Fortunately, General Lei is in Yidu, and personally raised his headquarters to face the enemy. Is this time a time to care about power? With the friendship between General Lei and Prefect Huo, will he not get permission to command the army in Jiangbei? Xu, don't worry too much about this time when life and death are at stake!"

Xu Xin, the soldiers of Zigui County who were advancing quickly outside the city, hesitated: "I can transfer up to two hundred people here."

Chen Mi said in a deep voice: "I have selected 300 strong and capable people from my tribe, clans and guests. Then I joined forces with the lieutenant's troops for 500, and I can't be less than those from Zigui County!"

"...It's good." Xu Xin bowed to Chen Mi: "Then I will immediately dispatch troops and advance with Wen Si and others!"

At this moment, a soldier on the watchtower at the top of the city shouted: "General, countless boats are coming towards the Linjianghe Pier!"

There was a turmoil on the top of the city: "Is it the Eastern Wu navy?"

The soldier narrowed his eyes and shouted, "It's not a Jiangdong ship, but a fleet from Danshui Wharf. I'm afraid there are not hundreds of ships. No, maybe more! Did the Yidao send all the ships out?"

"That must be the troops transferred from the counties in the south of the Yangtze River!" Chen Mi said.

Xu Xin ran to the watchtower with his hands and feet. Seeing that the boats were loaded with soldiers and were very well-drawn, the river was rushing and many ships were almost in danger of overturning. Xu Xin was surprised and said, "Premier Huo sent all his troops to Jiangbei? Did he not guard Yidao City?"

"That's not the soldiers of the county, but the troops drawn from the Wubi Manors of various counties in the south of the Yangtze River. With General Lei's reputation in Yidu, it's easy to draw three to five thousand soldiers who can fight!"

Chen Mi used to fight with Lei Yuan's troops. Because of this, he worked very hard to explore the background of the Lei family in Lujiang. He had long known the influence of the Lei family in various places in Yidu. Xu Xin was still surprised. Chen Mi waved his hand and called a small school in the city: "So many ships dock at the same time, the dock will inevitably be in a mess. Take more people and go to the Linjiang River dock to command immediately!"

The school took the order and ran away.
