After escaping, Chen Cheng was in a good mood, touched the mane of the mount, and said, "This time it's really thanks to you, can I give you a name?" ”

The jujube red horse under the crotch snorted, looking very happy.

Chen Cheng continued: "What do you call it? Red Rabbit? Well, this one is already ..... Some horses have been used, let's change it. Xiaoxiao? It sounds like a girl's name, but aren't girls and horses used for people to ride, I'm not disrespectful to women, but ...... Well, let's change another one. ”

He thought for a while, from "Wu Qi" to "Treading Snow", from "Shining Night Jade Lion" to "Little White Dragon", but none of them matched the jujube red of the mount. In the end, he really had no choice, and spread his hands and said: "I am a patient with advanced naming disorder syndrome, and naming is not what I am good at, or ...... Why don't you just call you Gollum? ”

"Gollum is fun, isn't it?"

The maroon horse didn't understand what he was saying at all, but he had been looking excited since he started running. After playing a leap over the river, it was even more excited, if it weren't for Chen Cheng controlling the horse's speed, it would have to run crazy. Hearing Chen Cheng say a lot, the war horse snorted a few times.

Seeing this, Chen Cheng was overjoyed and said, "Do you like this name?" I knew it! Who said I was a bitter name? Well, it looks like it's me. ”

As I was talking to myself, it was completely dark. He fed his horses some fodder, and took advantage of the darkness to pass through the enemy's camp to the east, and galloped to the mountains to the west. In the large camp on the mountain, the Han soldiers lit one bonfire after another, and they were singing happily.

Tian Yu drove back with more than 200 cattle and sheep in the morning, and then ordered a quarter to be slaughtered to reward the soldiers and boost morale. The Hu people were usually reluctant to slaughter livestock, and the Han people were equally reluctant. But now that the war is about to begin, and these cattle and sheep have been robbed, how can there be any reason not to eat them?

The soldiers feasted on it, and after eating beef and mutton, their morale increased greatly, and they all said that the Hu people were scum and that we would fight ten. The cavalry who attacked also received a bowl of thin wine each, although because they could not let go of the bitter drink in front of the two armies, it also made them happy for a long time.

After that, Tian Yu made more flamboyances and ordered people to plant flags all over the mountains behind, pretending to have many generals. At nightfall, many fires were set up on the hill ahead to confuse the enemy. When Chen Cheng returned, looking from afar, dozens of figures beside the fire were longing, and he couldn't help but doubt in his heart, "Could it be that there are really many reinforcements here?" ”

When I got closer, I smiled dumbly, where are the reinforcements? It's just some super straw men who have been hastily tied.

When he was sighing that Tian Yu had a lot of ideas, someone in front of him suddenly shouted: "What person? ”

Accompanied by the shouting and shouting, there was the sound of the bow being pulled apart. Chen Cheng didn't want to learn from a comrade who was in good health, and was put down by his own family, so he hurriedly said loudly: "It's me, Chen Cheng!" ”

Behind the rocks, Wei Ran came out and said happily: "Mr. Chen, you can be regarded as back!" ”

Chen Cheng smiled: "What? Think I can't come back? ”

Wei Ran smirked and said, "No, it's just that Mr. hasn't come back, and I'm a little anxious." ”

Chen Cheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Where is the captain?" Take me to him. ”

"This ........", Wei Ran rubbed his hands and said, "I still have to guard ....... here"

Chen Cheng said: "Then you are good to guard, I will go to find the captain." ”

Along the way, he encountered two more groups of ambush troops, and after Chen Cheng identified himself, he was let go. Soon, when he arrived at the front of the camp, Tian Yu faced several captains and said, "Wait until the curfew starts, the soldiers who are not on duty will go to sleep, and there will be no noise in the camp, and no unauthorized movement will be allowed!" Violators, take it down first and then ask! Those who dare to resist will be killed on the spot! ”

Although he has a gentle temperament, he is now in a war, and he has to harden his heart and promulgate strict military discipline.

After finishing speaking, Tian Yu saw that the faces of the generals in front of him were interested, and there seemed to be a sound behind him, so he turned around and turned around, and when he saw that it was Chen Cheng, he hurriedly asked: "Wen Zheng is going, can you see the Zhonglang general?" ”

Chen Cheng nodded and said, "I saw it." Everything is fine in the city, and General Gongsun is as brave as ever. ”

Tian Yu's face was happy and said, "That's good." ”

He looked at the people on the side who were also happy, and said, "Wen Zheng and a few lieutenants came to my camp to discuss matters, and the others went to carry out the order just now!" ”

Everyone obeyed the order, and their attitude was much more respectful than that of the previous day. The soldiers respected him because he was a captain. The ranks in the army are strict, and the rank of official is crushed to death. But now, the attitude of the soldiers towards him is more trust and closeness than respect. The reason for this is that he led his troops to attack in the early morning and returned with a great victory.

The soldiers are very superstitious and worship the strong, and those who can lead them to victory are good generals, and if they can be fed again, they will be legendary generals. Similarly, Chen Cheng led his troops to assault before, and he was unstoppable, cutting and killing enemy soldiers like mowing grass, which also brought him some prestige.

In addition to giving the soldiers more trust in him, this prestige also has a practical meaning. In Mount & Blade, the higher the reputation, the more soldiers you can lead directly. The more soldiers you have, the more experience points you can give him. In general, more is good, and bigger is beautiful...... Well, it's a good thing that the reputation is high, the higher the better!

After entering the big tent of the Chinese army, Tian Yu didn't wait to sit down, so he hurriedly asked: "Wenzheng, since you have met General Zhonglang, what did General Zhonglang say?" ”

Chen Cheng looked around the tent and said with a smile: "General Zhonglang has agreed, and he will go out of the city in five days to fight against the war." ”

"Good!" Tian Yu slapped his thigh and said, "Sure enough, he is worthy of General Gongsun!" ”

He calmed down for a moment and said, "Then within five days, we will make a big show and attract the main force of the enemy army." ”

Chen Cheng shook his head with a smile and said, "There is a Zhonglang general in the city, how dare the enemy army transfer all the elites across the river?" Aren't you afraid that General Gongsun will come out of the city? ”

Tian Yu also laughed and said, "Even if you can't attract the elite of the enemy army, it's good to reduce the pressure on General Zhonglang's side." Tomorrow will be a very difficult day, and if the enemy does not kill us, we will rush down the mountain. As long as they are disturbed a few more times, I don't believe they can bear it! ”

Chen Cheng smiled: "Condescending, like a bamboo." Whether the enemy forces come or not, we have the upper hand. ”

Tian Yu said: "Not bad! Ladies and gentlemen, you are right in front of you, please work hard! ”

Several captains bowed to the ground together and said in unison: "No! ”

When everyone else left, Chen Cheng was also about to go out, but suddenly thought of something, and came back and asked, "General, I asked Zhao Si to bring a rebel general back before, I don't know where the person is now?" ”

Tian Yu thought for a while and said, "Inside the tent at the back." Wenzheng, why did you ask him? ”

Chen Cheng said: "We are now confidants, but we don't know much about the enemy army. If you can know the depth of the enemy army from that person's mouth, you will know yourself and your opponent, and you will definitely be able to survive a hundred battles! ”

Tian Yu smiled: "I don't want Wen Zheng to have also seen Sun Tzu's Art of War." ”

He pondered for a while and said, "I also have a slight intention of this. I heard that Wen Zheng swore to the man that as long as he was willing to surrender, he would save his family. I can also assure Wen Zheng that as long as he helps us put down the rebellion, I will also do my best to save his parents and relatives. ”

Chen Cheng saluted Tian Yu with his fists, did not speak again, but turned around and lifted the tent and walked out with his head held high.

He questioned the soldiers on duty and found the tent where the rebel generals were being held. When I lifted the tent and went in, I smelled a strong smell of herbs. At the same time, a familiar and vigilant voice came from the darkness, "What man?" ”

As the interrogation sounded, there was the sound of weapons unsheathed in the tent.

Chen Cheng immediately remembered that someone was bleeding all over his face and gritted his teeth, and said, "Zhao Si? It's me, Chen Cheng and Chen Wenzheng. ”

The person in the tent was Zhao Si, and when he heard this, he hurriedly put down the ring head knife, stepped forward, took a closer look, and then said happily: "It's really Mr. Chen." ”

After that, he turned around again, patted him on the couch, and said, "Ding Yuan, Mr. Chen is here!" ”

The man on the couch snorted and said, "I've seen it a long time ago, if you tap your hand, you will be slapped to death if you shoot it again!" ”

Zhao Si laughed, and was about to say something, when someone outside the tent shouted, "Who is making a noise?" ”

Chen Cheng hurriedly said, "Be quiet, you are laughing too much." You say his name is Ding Yuan? ”

"Well, this traitor....... It's Ding Yuan. Zhao Si lowered his voice and said, "He used to be a captain, so much higher than our old Zhao that he didn't know where he went." ”

Ding Yuan said in a sullen voice: "Mr. Chen, you came here so late, is there anything wrong?" ”

Chen Cheng said: "It's nothing, I just came back, come and see how you are." By the way, I killed a lot of livestock today, but did you get anything to eat? ”

Ding Yuan smiled bitterly: "I'm not afraid of Mr. jokes, I have eaten a lot." Previously in ..... When I was in the rebel camp, I could only mix and half full, but I didn't expect that after being caught, I would be able to eat a large piece of meat. ”

Zhao Si made a fuss and said, "No wonder you have eaten so much, we thought you were born with a large amount of food." No, didn't you say that those Hu people drink milk and eat meat every day? Why don't I give it to you? ”

Chen Cheng smiled: "You don't know this, those noble chiefs can only eat meat occasionally, and the herdsmen below can usually nibble on some cheese, most of the time they are eating grass..... Well, most of the time it's eating wild vegetables. Only during the winter will some emaciated animals be slaughtered for meat. ”

Ding Yuan lay on the couch, his eyes widened, and he said in shock: "I don't want Mr. to even know this!" It seems that we have not been unjustly defeated. ”

Chen Chengxin said: What is this? I also know calculus and linear algebra. He smiled and said, "You rest first, and I'll come to see you tomorrow when you're in better spirits." ”

The next morning, Tian Yu ordered some cattle and sheep to be slaughtered, so that the soldiers could eat a full meal. After that, the formation began.
