After he saw Zhang Dingguo's announcement, he felt a little relieved. At least so far, everything is going according to plan.

Sun Chuanting was also in the chat group, and after learning that Zhang Dingguo was leaving, he reported his location again to let Zhang Dingguo know. At the same time, Lu Ruipeng and Zhang Fengyi also reported their positions. This night, many people had no sleep.

At this time, the function of instant contact in the chat group is extremely important. This reassured all parties involved in the operation, especially Sun Chuanting and Zhang Dingguo, and reduced the possibility of mistakes.

Just like now, under the faint moonlight in the middle of the night, Sun Chuanting led his subordinates to walk along the official road without lighting torches, even if he saw a few torches coming along the official road from Balipu, he was very calm and did not panic at all. Because they can know who the other party is through the chat group.

After the two sides were relatively close, Zhang Xianzhong ordered everyone to stop advancing, and he took a few cronies, and did not light torches, but only greeted them with the help of faint moonlight.

Of course, at this distance, others can vaguely see that there are many people on the official road in front. Naturally, they were curious, guessing who each other was? However, none of them could have imagined that these people on the other side would be the acting county officials.

"The last general, Zhang Xianzhong, has seen Lord Sun!" Zhang Xianzhong's posture was very low, and after greeting him in a low voice, he greeted him in a low voice as an official.

Although at this time he was actually a guerrilla general recognized by the imperial court, and Sun Chuanting was just a former official who resigned and returned to his hometown. But he knew that after this battle, Sun Chuanting would be reused by the imperial court. A ruthless person who can put himself in danger, he has already thought about his attitude when he comes into contact.

Zhang Xianzhong's opening remarks made most of the county officials and soldiers breathe a sigh of relief. Lord Sun really didn't lie, there are really people here to answer!

When Sun Chuanting heard this, he suddenly had a good impression of this thief in his heart, he knew that Zhang Dingguo in the chat group was his righteous son, so he didn't dare to be too big, and immediately responded in a low voice: "The general is hard, there is still half an hour to dawn, you and I should prepare early!" ”

As he spoke, he rolled over and dismounted.

"Everything is at your command!" Zhang Xianzhong immediately responded.

Both sides don't need to report who they have brought, what preparations they have to make, and what they will do next. Because these details have been communicated in the chat group, both parties are clear.

I saw that the county officials and soldiers did not need to be ordered, and under Sun Chuanting's orders, they all started to unload things from the backs of the animals at a rapid pace, and were busy preparing. About a quarter of an hour later, after they had finished their preparations, Zhang Xianzhong returned and brought him and Liu Guoneng's men over.

There were more than 300 people on one side and more than 400 people on the other, and as soon as the two sides met under the darkness of the night, under the light of a few torches, people could finally see each other vaguely.

At the beginning, when the thief border army saw the other party wearing the Ming army uniform, he thought that the other party was just a border soldier in the peasant army like himself. But when they saw a man standing at the head of the man in civil attire, they felt a little wrong. For there is no such person among the thieves, it is certain. But in any case, they didn't think that the other party was a real official or soldier for a while.

Zhang Xianzhong stood beside Sun Chuanting, glanced at it, and saw that he and Liu Guoneng's cronies were scattered in the team, so he shouted: "Zhang and Brother Liu and others have been recruited by the imperial court and have been named guerrilla generals, and they will cooperate with Lord Sun to exterminate the thieves tonight." Before the three-way army of the Tianming Imperial Court meets, we must make a contribution, so that everyone will have a great future. If anyone doesn't comply, don't blame Zhang for not being emotional! ”

As soon as these words were spoken, the sergeant on the thief side was taken aback. Zhang Xianzhong's words revealed too much news, which they never thought of before.

First, Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng have been recruited by the imperial court and have been named guerrilla generals. And listening to what he meant, it seems that there are also leaders who have been recruited together.

Second, these people in front of him turned out to be the official army of the imperial court, and they were also the commander of a civil official surnamed Sun who was higher than the guerrilla general, who came to exterminate the thieves.

Third, tomorrow, the other two imperial armies that they were most worried about would arrive here.

Fourth, they themselves are the subordinates of Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng and others, since Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng are guerrillas, then if they make a contribution in this battle, I am afraid they will also be able to have an official and a half-position.

At this time, Sun Chuanting came out with the benefits of appearing on behalf of the county officials and soldiers. If there were no them, Zhang Xianzhong and others would incite them to rebel, even if they said it wildly, I am afraid they would hesitate and dare not believe it.

But at this moment, they saw that there were indeed officers and soldiers arriving, although it seemed that the number of people was not very large. But they thought that this was just the vanguard, and there were civilian officials in charge, which strongly proved that what Zhang Xianzhong said was true.

As long as he is not a fool, after a little weighing, no one will jump out at this time to accuse Zhang Xianzhong of defecting to the enemy. As Zhang Xianzhong said, the vast majority of people are forced to rebel in order to survive. With a better choice at this time, who would want to be a thief!

It would be nonsense to say that at this time someone expected that they would succeed in their rebellion. For them at this time, one is that they can't see the future, hide in Tibet, be frightened, and don't know when they will be chased and exterminated by the official army, just a day of mixed life; The other is a sunny road that completely gets rid of the existing predicament and can glorify the ancestors. No one can make a mistake in such a choice, not to mention that the current situation is clear, if you don't agree, it will be the end of being killed.

From a certain point of view, they were brought here at this moment to have a showdown, just not to give them a chance to choose.

Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng's cronies already knew about the situation in advance, so they responded as soon as possible.

"We listen to the eldest brother, and the eldest brother will do whatever he wants!"

"Big brother is right, we are just forced to do it, and if we have a way to live, we will definitely not do this headless thing!"

"There is such a good opportunity to return home, do it!"

“……”

As soon as these people took the lead in expressing their positions, there were still so many officials and soldiers on the side, and the others did not hesitate, and immediately followed suit. Even if some people take the righteousness of the rivers and lakes more seriously, at most they will say that their voices are a little smaller, and they don't have such a strong confidence.

Zhang Xianzhong saw that these people after he and Liu Guoneng were selected, they did not let themselves down, and he was happy in his heart, even if he did not lose face in front of Sun Chuanting.

Thinking so, he turned to face Sun Chuanting, clasped his fists and bowed down, "My lord, it's okay!" ”
