In the months since, Chen Cheng has been wandering the land of Jizhou. He's strong, he doesn't get sick or get frostbitten, and his "inventory" is full of supplies, so he doesn't find it difficult to live in the wild.

On this day, he picked up some branches, plucked some thatch, lit them with a lighter, and prepared to roast and eat the rabbits he had brought in. Because he had been in ancient times before, he knew what to bring, so this time he prepared a lot of ginger, garlic, pepper, pepper, cumin, honey, sugar, soy sauce, and other seasonings.

The rabbit is first disemboweled, stripped of its fur, then pierced with a branch, brushed with honey, and roasted on a fire. Wait until it is six or seven medium cooked, then brush it with soy sauce and bake it until golden brown, it is a delicious dish. The only bad thing is that it takes too long, and if you eat like this every day, it will take you more than half of the time just to get it, and it won't be fun at all.

Now the world is tired, rebellions are everywhere, and white bones can often be seen by the roadside. At such times, it is possible to have a meal with peace of mind and make people feel happy. After he finished his lunch, he recycled the empty boxes and other things, and buried the bones and other garbage, and then continued on his way.

The shoes were already worn and could not be worn, so Chen Cheng walked barefoot on the ground. The peasants of this era were like this most of the time, wearing straw sandals and cloth shoes only when they were not working or attending festivals and other activities. He walked barefoot to the gate of a city, and saw a large crowd of people surrounding the gate of the city, and someone was reading aloud inside.

Chen Cheng stood at the back of the crowd and listened for a while, to the effect that someone had rebelled, and the imperial court wanted to recruit troops to fight the enemy.

Fighting a war is naturally dangerous, not to mention the long journey, but also a bloody battle with the enemy, maybe you will die, who will be a serious person to fight as a soldier? However, there are many people in the world who are afraid of poverty, hunger and death, and as soon as the list of recruits came out, it was full of people, and many conceited and brave villagers moved their minds.

Oh, good men don't serve as soldiers, that started in the Song Dynasty. In the Han Dynasty, there was no imperial examination, and the best way for local heroes to get ahead was to join the army and fight. Secondly, it is also a good choice to give yourself a knife and enter the palace as a eunuch. Eunuchs were a very important part of the political ecology of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Now that the power of the Ten Standing Servants is monstrous, even famous generals like Huangfu Song and Lu Zhi have to bow their heads to them.

But if there is no way, who wants to be a eunuch?

Chen Cheng watched with interest as the villagers discussed enthusiastically, and said in his heart: It makes sense in the history books that "the only Han died by force", and there are such people, even if China is divided, they can still beat the barbarians around them.

He's looking at others, and they're looking at him. The average height of the Han Dynasty was about seven feet, and his height was one meter seven or eight, which was more than seven feet five when converted into the measurement of this era. Standing in the crowd with such a tall person, it is difficult for people not to notice.

The officer who came to recruit was a young man, and when he saw Chen Cheng smiling, but not enthusiastic, he couldn't help but say, "The man over there, what are you laughing at?" ”

Chen Cheng is now dressed in tatters, with a thick layer of mud on his face, and he looks like a vagrant.

Everyone looked at Chen Cheng together, Chen Cheng was stunned for a moment, then touched his chin with a lot of stubble, and said, "Am I smiling?" ”

The officer's face was not good, and he said: "Now that the country is in trouble, you don't want to serve the country, but laugh, it's a pity for this skin!" ”

"This ......."

The villagers on the side also said: "A good man naturally wants to win wealth from horses!" ”

Chen Cheng is not a person of this era, so he naturally has no sense of identity with the imperial court. But.........

The officer continued, "I ask you, are you Han?" ”

"Of course I'm Han!"

The officer said sharply: "Since you are a Han Chinese, what else can you say about defending the country against the Hu people?" ”

Chen Cheng opened his mouth and stammered, and after a while, he took a deep breath and arched his hand: "What the honorable driver said is that he will join the army here and sweep away the remnants of thieves for the country!" ”

The villagers cheered, the officer's face was slightly pale, and Chen Cheng asked, "I don't know what the honorable driver is?" ”

The officer said: "A certain Tian Yu, how do you call Brother Tai?" ”

Chen Cheng said with a smile: "It turned out to be General Tian, under Chen Cheng." Today's generals are responsible for righteousness and dare to die if they don't serve their deaths? ”

With Chen Cheng taking the lead, dozens of people joined the army on the spot, and dozens of people came one after another in the next two days, Tian Yu recruited more than 100 people, so he left a few people to continue recruiting, and he took these more than 100 people to the military camp first. On the way, Chen Cheng talked with Tian Yu for a while, and then he realized what he was doing.

Now the world is a big powder keg, and there are rebellions everywhere. Although the Yellow Turban Army was powerful, it was not the first to rebel, nor was it the last. Before the Zhang Jiao brothers, the Xiliangqiang people rebelled, captured Han Sui Bianzhang, and coerced them to become the leaders of the rebels. After the defeat of the Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Ju, a Yuyang man, claimed to be the Son of Heaven and ravaged the north, and the official army was defeated repeatedly.

The imperial court had no choice but to appoint Gongsun Zhan as the Taishou of Liaodong and ordered him to recruit strong men on his own to suppress the rebellious Zhang Jujun. Tian Yu was ordered by Gongsun Zan to recruit soldiers.

Gongsun Chan......... Chen Cheng had heard of this name, but he couldn't say that he knew it, only that he was Liu Bei's senior brother, who studied under Lu Zhi's disciple together, and later fought with Yuan Shao for Hebei, but was defeated and died. Nothing more.

Tian Yu had great respect for Gongsun Zhan, and seeing that Chen Cheng seemed to be very interested, he said some deeds of Gongsun Zhan. It turned out that although Gongsun Zhan was born in a famous Gongsun family, because his mother was not a wife, he could only be a small official. But he is eight feet tall, has a very beautiful appearance, and has a loud voice, so he has been appreciated by Liu Qi. Later, Liu Qi was sent to Jiaozhou because of his crime, and Gongsun Zhan resigned from his official position and escorted Liu Qi to Jiaozhou, which was thousands of miles away.

It was because of this that he would rather lose his official position and escort the deeds of the old master, Gongsun Zhan was later promoted to filial piety and became the governor of Liaodong, and then relied on bloody battles again and again, and finally sat in the position of Liaodong Taishou.

Before Han Sui Bianzhang made a rebellion in Xiliang, the imperial court wanted to recruit Gongsun Zan to the northwest to quell the rebellion. But who would have thought that there would be even more frustrated people who dared to call themselves the Son of Heaven, and under the anger of the imperial court, they appointed Gongsun Zan as the Taishou of Liaodong to suppress and exterminate the traitors.

After finishing speaking, Tian Yu's eyes lit up, and he looked admiring, as if he was willing to die for Gongsun Zhan. Chen Cheng felt that it was inexplicably disobedient, was Gongsun Chan actually such a person? It wasn't quite what he remembered. But then he was relieved that his understanding of Gongsun Chan came from the romance novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", not the history book "Three Kingdoms".

Besides, even if it is a history book, won't it be different from the real situation?

After two days on the road, we arrived at the barracks. The barracks are not large, and there are not many soldiers and horses. In addition to the more than 100 newly recruited, there are more than 400 people in the barracks, who are organized according to the organization of Wu, Shi, Team, Tun, and Qu. According to the formation method of the Han army, on top of the song, there is a larger organization. But Tian Yu is only a captain, and the troops he can lead are a song. If he is promoted to a lieutenant, he will be able to lead a number of soldiers and horses, and the army under his command can also be called "Tianyu Department".

After arriving at the barracks, Tian Yu first gave the newcomers a full meal, and then appointed several powerful people as chiefs, and Chen Cheng was one of them. In this way, he immediately became a ten-man general. This made him a little uncomfortable, in the past, he was alone, even in the original world, he didn't like team building and other activities.

What do you mean by that? Is it because the game is not fun, or is the novel movie not good?

More importantly, he was just going to come over and deal with it, and then run away when he had the chance. If you really become an officer, then you can't be trapped? Still can't do your best for your men? So he found Tian Yu and said, "General, I'm new here, and it's not suitable to be a direct chief." It's not that I'm modest, so you'd better be smart. ”

He is a person with a sense of responsibility, and if he doesn't agree, it's okay, if he really becomes a chief, then he has to fulfill his responsibilities. Since he was ready to run away from the beginning, it was better not to be this official.

Tian Yu put down the bamboo slip in his hand, smiled, and said, "Who is born with it?" ”

Seeing that Chen Cheng seemed to say something, Tian Yu said again: "Isn't your martial arts enough to be this master?" ”

What Chen Cheng hates most in his life is lying, and he especially hates lying, every time he lies, he feels uncomfortable. He opened his mouth and thought about it, there really wasn't much to say.

Tian Yu suddenly sank his face again, and reprimanded: "What do you think is the place in the army? Is it for you to bargain? Since the decision is to make you what to do, it's you! If you don't do well, I'll naturally remove you, will you not do well? ”

Chen Cheng sighed long in his heart, he was too honest. The guy in front of him is too good to speak, and he actually thinks what he said makes sense. He reluctantly arched his hand and said, "Of course it can be done." ”

Tian Yu scolded with a smile: "Looking at you like this, it seems that you have been wronged, and those who don't know think that you have been deprived of your official position." ”

The corners of Chen Cheng's mouth twitched, and he said, "What chief is also called an official?" ”

He said that it was subconscious, and he used to have habitual behaviors on the Internet and people for a long time. After finishing speaking, he felt that it was inappropriate, who knew that Tian Yu was not only not angry, but laughed and said: "That's good!" What kind of official is the chief? Do it well, as long as you make a contribution, I will definitely recommend you to General Gongsun! ”

After walking out of Tian Yu's big tent, Chen Cheng understood why Tian Yu reacted this way. When there was a Han Dynasty, people's sense of merit was extremely strong, and they really had the spirit of "the husband can't eat five tripods in life, and he should cook for five tripods when he dies". On the one hand, everyone wants to serve the country and get ahead. On the other hand, if there is no hope of serving the country and getting ahead, it will easily devote itself to the great cause of rebellion.

In the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were anti-thieves everywhere, which was also related to this trend of thought. Weapons are sharper than thoughts most of the time, but there are times when minds are more powerful than weapons.
