"Lord, are these thieves crazy?" Dian Wei entered the carriage with a breath of blood.

It has been five days since he left Xiapi, these five days have not been peaceful, Chen Mo has encountered three assassinations, this is the third time in front of him, and it is also the closest to Chen Mo, the assassin killed the waiter who brought Chen Mo food, the waiter was a lame man, the assassin in order to get close to Chen Mo, he made his leg lame, obviously premeditated, and he knew the situation around Chen Mo very thoroughly.

This is an assassin with brains, and he is ruthless enough, before Dian Wei tortured him, he bit off his tongue alive, swallowing his tongue and killing himself will not necessarily die, but it is impossible to speak, and it hurts for sure.

"If I were killed, would you avenge me?" Chen Mo didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

"Sure, no, impossible, how could the lord die?" Dian Wei subconsciously responded, and then shook his head.

"Everyone will die, and I'm not an immortal, maybe an immortal will die." Chen Mo shook his head and smiled: "Everyone has their own beliefs, knowing that they can't do it, maybe it's unwise, but you can't say that he is wrong, right and wrong in the world are always relative, for me, these people are naturally wrong, but for the people they want to protect, they are right, just like Jing Ke assassinated Qin in the past, some people, before coming, have put life and death aside." ”

"Uh...... Is the lord saying that they are right? Dian Wei said blankly.

"Of course not, if they're right, doesn't that mean I deserve to die?" Chen Mo looked at Dian Wei with a dark face, he was such an adult, and he couldn't speak anymore.

"Then my lord, you just said those ......," Dian Wei was puzzled.

"If you meet this kind of person in the future, give them a good time, and you can solve it with one knife, why spend those hours?" Chen Mo shook his head and said: "In this world, there are thousands of disputes, who is right and who is wrong, there is no need to sort it out, my expedition to the Central Plains this time, although the world is unified, but how many families are broken because of me?" If it is really investigated, maybe their brother and son died in the war, and they were provoked by someone, and they came, which is pitiful and sad. ”

As for who is behind the scenes, there is no need to check, if you really want to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, I am afraid that the Central Plains land should be in chaos again, knocking on the mountains and shaking the tigers, and when it is really needed, this kind of thing is not difficult to check, and it is not even necessary to check.

"Got it." Dian Wei was clear, it seemed that his own methods were too bloody, which made the lord uncomfortable.

You know a!

Chen Mo could see from Dian Wei's eyes that he didn't understand at all, but he didn't bother to explain it anymore.

In fact, the assassination encountered now is still secondary, what Chen Mo is really worried about is the safety of his family, Chen Jin is now out, although it is secret, but it cannot be guaranteed to hide it from everyone, as well as Chen Zheng.

He is not worried at home, the guards at home are arranged by Chen Mo himself, and if he wants to hurt the people in the family, he is afraid that it is more difficult than assassinating Chen Mo.

In addition to the assassins from time to time, this Langya patrol is quite smooth, in the past, Langya was controlled by Zang Ba, and the Chen family was in the south and north, it was actually a big force in Xuzhou, and sometimes Cao Cao's orders were not easy to use here.

However, Cao Cao obviously can't let this kind of thing continue, Zang Ba has been promoted five times, although the official position has been promoted, but the military power under his command has been continuously diluted in these five promotions, and later he was directly sent to the plains to preside over the battle of the plains, which seems to be alone, but in fact, it erased the traces of Zang Ba in Langya, which invisibly helped Chen Mo a favor, and made Chen Mo take over Xuzhou a lot smoother.

Now in charge of the defense of Langya's side is Zhang He, in the area of Keiwu Mountain began to build a large number of dock forts, a team or a tun in one place, each other, beacons are connected, can not only support each other, but also can use these dock forts as a unit to camp step by step, in order to wait for the support of the main army, even in Chen Mo's vision, for Zhang He's arrangement can not find fault.

"It deserves to be called a river. The famous generals of the north, arranged like this, can be regarded as locking Cao Jun south of Keiwu Mountain. After some inspection, Chen Mo summoned Zhang He, and naturally he had to praise and encourage.

Zhang He, as a general, is relatively outstanding. The generals who descended to the north, and now they are reused, except for the veteran Han Qiong, it is Zhang He, Gao Ran is also almost, and now he is making a deputy general for Wuyi, and he is stationed in the Qinghe area, unlike Han Qiong and Zhang He, who can be alone.

"The lord praises falsely, and he is ashamed to be ashamed." Zhang He hurriedly arched his hand.

"I won't say these polite words." Chen Mo smiled and waved his hand and said: "Now although Cao Cao has retreated to Qingzhou, most of his subordinates are gathered here, and the strength is stronger than before, there are only 10,000 troops here, I am afraid it is not enough, this time I came, one is to inspect, and the other is a decisive battle with Cao Jun this time, and I have a lot of credit, and now I need to guard Langya, I am afraid that I can't return to the dynasty to be sealed, so this time I came to bring a reward from the imperial court, and this time I was appointed as General Anton, and the army can be expanded to 20,000, and then 10,000 troops will be sent, as for how to practice, that's your business." ”

Chen Mo said, motioning to Dian Wei to hand over the seal ribbon that had been prepared to Zhang He.

"Thank you, my lord!" Zhang He hurriedly thanked him.

"Meritorious service will be rewarded, this is what you deserve, in addition, there is also the Lord of the Inner Marquis, which is considered to be due to you in advance, in addition, there are thousands of Shu brocade horses, which have been sent to your home, of course, if you have other uses, I can send someone to send here." Chen Mo smiled.

"Lord...... He swears to serve the Lord and the public, if he violates this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed! Zhang He knelt down and thanked him.

"Get up, just remember, I will never treat the meritorious people badly, what do others say, but what will happen to the general? There are a few people under my command who are not generals......"

"Lord, I'm not!" Dian Wei interrupted.

"Get out!"

"喏~"

"Where?" Chen Mo turned his head and looked at Zhang He again, the atmosphere was very good, but he was interrupted by Dian Wei, Chen Mo looked at Dian Wei's back with a smile: "This fool is not strange." ”

"Whatever the lord said, General Dian is the true temperament." Zhang He hurriedly said, although Dian Wei's official position is not high, but it is Chen Mo's guard, don't look at Chen Mo's scolding on weekdays, but who dares to really provoke?

"The matter of Langya, you still need to worry a lot, you don't have to care too much about how many enemies you kill, everything is based on stability." Chen Mo smiled.

Langya's current pressure is only on the side of Qingzhou, and on the back is Xuzhou to provide support for him, as for the pressure in Jiangdong, Guangling has 20,000 elite soldiers of the Chen family, and Jianghuai has Han Qiong to guard it, and there is pressure to not be able to suppress here, so although Cao Jun poses a great threat to Chen Mo, as long as he guards the danger, he believes that Zhang He can help him hold Langya.

"Don't worry, as long as the Cao army doesn't attack now, there are 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the last general can defend this area like an iron bucket." Zhang He said solemnly.

From the perspective of the terrain, Cao Cao is very likely to choose Langya as a breakthrough point if he wants to leave Qingzhou, which is also the reason why Chen Mo promoted Zhang He to the rank and knighted him, and gave him financial and military strength.

"If you really can't hold on, you can go to find Han Yugong, Xuzhou should be able to raise some troops, and there are some other things to pay attention to." Chen Mo nodded and smiled.

"My lord, please speak." Zhang He hurriedly said.

"Langya is adjacent to the East China Sea, I listened to my uncle's words, in this East China Sea area, there are occasional pirates who commit crimes, so pay attention to it, if possible, recruit some." Chen Mo smiled.

He is now beginning to pay attention to the naval army, he has talked to Lu Bu, Lu Bu has wanted to capture Jingxiang several times, but they were blocked by the Han River, at that time Lu Bu said, this naval army is different from the infantry army, now the Central Plains is established, although this Jiangdong expedition cannot be started immediately, but it should have been prepared early.

Train the navy from scratch, Chen Mo has no navy generals here, he is ready to recruit some sea pirates, so that at least the foundation of the navy is there, if the method of water warfare is to be learned, it is not difficult to learn in the dream training camp, but it also needs a few water war generals, these pirates can gallop the sea, if you can find a few water war generals, when he goes south to Jiangdong, he can enter the river from the mouth of Guangling, and even directly attack Wu County, Huiji and other places with the water army, and attack in both directions.

Of course, this is just an idea, and now there is not even a basic water army, let alone fight against the Jiangdong water army, which has long been proficient in water warfare.

"Don't worry, the last general has written it down." Zhang He nodded, keeping this matter in mind.

Next, Chen Mo stopped in Langya for a few days, before he began to set off, returning to Suiyang, Xuzhou, so far it is over, next, he is ready to cultivate for two years, waiting for the opportunity to break Qingzhou, the former best friend, he believes that Cao Cao will understand him, the Central Plains is unified, he can let go of the layout of the south and Shu, if possible, he hopes that Cao Cao can surrender, but with his understanding of Cao Cao, this possibility is not very likely, since this is the case, then end the war between the two sides as soon as possible.
