Chen Pan was once ordered to go eastward, go to Tan County to gather all kinds of righteous troops, and then return to Chen County to relieve the danger of Zhang Han going south, and because of this, Chen Pan had to leave Chen County, lead more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, all the way to the east, from Surabaya County to Donghai County, along the straight road once built by the First Emperor, and go straight to Tan County.

But the road is far away, and Chen Pan has no intention of returning to help, so he walked slowly all the way, always inquiring about the news of Chen County, and in the past few days, there was really news sent back.

Chen Sheng because of Cai Ci's defeat, personally sent troops to reinforce Zhang He, wanting to alleviate the crisis of Chen County, but on the way, he got the news of Zhang He's defeat, Jia Fu also took the opportunity to kill Chen Sheng, defrauded Chen County, and surrendered to Zhang Hanna, but then, Jia Fu was driven back to Chen County Lu Chen was punished, at this time, Lu Chen has proclaimed himself the king of Zhang Chu, commanded Chen County, and Zhang Han, but suddenly turned to Nanyang County, it is said that Song Liu has broken through Wan County, straight to Wuguan to kill, if Song Liu can break Wuguan, Guanzhong will be in chaos again.

At this time, Chen Pan was in a dilemma, Chen Sheng was dead, he became a homeless stray dog, had to drift around, where to go, Chen Pan hesitated.

At this time, his army was less than five hundred miles away from Tan County, and it would take two more days to arrive, and it would be meaningless to arrive in Tan County, after all, Chen Sheng was no longer there, and there was no need for him to gather the rebel army near Tan County.

But Chen Pan also has his own ambitions, and he is also thinking about establishing a country of his own, or finding a hegemon who can really dominate Shandong, follow him, and do a great career.

Therefore, the rebels who recovered Tanxian County may be used as their own capital or a stepping stone to join others.

When Chen Pan was hurrying away, the scout galloped over, stopped in front of Chen Pan's horse, and arched his hand: "General, there is news from Tan County." ”

Chen Pan's eyes lit up, he slowed down his trip in the past few days, just to wait for the news of Tan County, at this time the scout returned, Chen Pan hurriedly said: "Tell me quickly, how is the situation in Tan County?" ”

"It is said that the rebel army besieging Tan County is composed of five soldiers and horses, they are all heroes in Donghai County, each gathering about 1,000 people, forming a coalition army, and the leader is Qin Jia." After the scout finished speaking, he saw that Chen Pan was bowing his head and pondering, so he had to arch his hand, turn his horse's head and leave.

At this time, Chen Pan looked at the army slowly marching behind him, if he could be an envoy and win them over, perhaps, they were afraid of Zhang Chuguo's power and would be willing to take refuge in him.

Although Zhang Chuguo was dead in name only at this time, Chen Pan believed that the land of Shandong was remote, and they might not be able to know the news of Chen Sheng's defeat, so thinking so, Chen Pan turned back to a general and ordered: "Go and prepare some gifts, I will go to meet the leader of the rebel army." ”

。。。。。。

At this time, in the camp of the righteous army, Qin Jiagao sat on it, he was originally from Lingxian County, he had risen because of Chen Sheng's uprising, and Qin Jia, who was unwilling to fall all his life, united Dong Wei, Zhu Jishi, Zhu Jishi, Zheng Bu, and Ding Ji, who were from Xu County, rose in Donghai County and fought with the Qin army.

Successively leveled Lanling, Xiangben and other counties, and then waved troops to advance, besieged the county Shouqing in Tan County, the two sides fought fiercely for a year, but the number of rebels was insufficient, the weapons were worn, the combat effectiveness was low, and they could not capture Tan County, but the garrison of Tan County could not exterminate Qin Jia's rebel army, just like that, the two contended.

On this day, Qin Jia summoned the remaining five people to discuss countermeasures, but Tan County is the seat of Donghai County, there are many garrisons here, the city defense is strong, and there is a Shijian army that was killed from the west not long ago, I heard that this road soldiers and horses are the troops under the command of Zhang Han, and they are also trapped in the city at this time, if they want to conquer it in a short time, it is indeed an impossible thing to complete, and because of this, many people advocate moving to Surabaya County at this time, or marching to the rest of the counties of Donghai County, and finally waiting for the strength of the righteous army to grow, and it is not too late to conquer Tan County in the return army.

But this proposal was vetoed by Qin Jia, and after a year of hard fighting, seeing that Tanxian County was gradually declining, and the city defense army was decreasing day by day, how could it be easily abandoned?

Just when everyone was chattering about this matter, a messenger walked in quickly and arched his hand: "Generals, there is a group of people outside the camp who want to see him, and the person who is the leader claims to be Chen Pan, the general under the command of King Chen Sheng, was ordered to sit in Donghai County and want to meet the general Qin Jia. ”

After hearing this, Qin Jia was slightly surprised, "Who is Chen Pan?" ”

Just when Qin Jia was secretly thinking about the purpose of Chen Pan's trip, on the side, Gongsun Qing, who had always been silent, said in a deep voice: "What does the general think Chen Pan means here?" ”

Gongsun Qing is Qin Jia's staff, at this time, his doubts are also his own doubts, Qin Jia thought for a moment, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Could it be that Chen Pan is also here to attack Tan County?" ”

Gongsun Qing nodded, he had already guessed Chen Pan's intention, at this time Qin Jia said part of it, Gongsun Qing gave up and said: "Attacking Tan County, I'm afraid it's only one of them, I think, he has another purpose." ”

"Oh? Let's hear it. Qin Jia was interested, got up and paced in the tent, at this time, Gongsun Qing smiled and said: "As far as I know, Chen Sheng has been defeated in Chen County, but Chen Pan deceived us far away, and the news was blocked, thinking that we didn't know the news of Chen Sheng's defeat, so he would come in the name of Chen Sheng, if the general was led by his nose, then the next step, he would inevitably collect all the sergeants under the general, and then ......"

Gongsun Qing made a gesture of cutting his neck, Qin Jia couldn't help but shiver, and said hatefully: "Since that's the case, I'll reject him now!" ”

"Otherwise, how can the general easily skim off the fat that is delivered to his mouth?" Gongsun Qing looked at Qin Jia faintly, and said half-loudly: "Cooperation is certain, but we might as well cooperate alone, while he is unprepared when he enters the camp, we will ambush the knife and axeman, kill this person, and then incorporate his army, Tanxian can be broken!" ”

Speaking of this, Qin Jia nodded approvingly, and the rest of the people in the tent also stood up and praised, this plan was very good, and soon, there was a loud laughter from everyone in the tent.

。。。。。。

Outside the tent, Chen Pan with twenty entourage, has been waiting for a long time, they each lead their horses, anxiously wandering, at this time Chen Pan is already a little annoyed, less than 10,000 rebels, dare to be so prosperous, let themselves wait outside?

But Chen Pan knew in his heart that after all, he was here to win them over, and it was not easy to turn his face for the time being, so he had to suppress the anger in his heart and continue to wait.

After a while, a soldier rushed out and said, "My general is invited, please come with me." ”

"Is this how your general treats guests? Why didn't you come out to meet me? Chen Pan was a little displeased, and the soldier immediately replied: "In the past few days, Tanxian County has been stormed, and the soldiers and horses have suffered heavy casualties, and my general is dealing with the wounded soldiers, please forgive me." ”

Seeing that the other party was indeed busy, Chen Pan didn't want to put on too much of it, so he had to snort coldly and walked towards the camp, but the soldiers guarding the camp on both sides waved Changge and blocked the way, and an officer said loudly: "General Chen, my general has an order, only you are allowed to enter the camp, and the rest are not allowed to enter!" ”

"You ......" Chen Pan was angry again, he pointed at the officer, 'you' for a long time, and he couldn't say anything, after all, it was in someone's territory, in the end, Chen Pan had to snort coldly and walked inward, at this time everything needs to be patient, but Chen Pan has already decided in his heart that one day, he must let Qin Jia return it twice.

Under the leadership of a soldier, he walked through several camps and came to a large tent, outside which was guarded by more than 20 burly soldiers, Chen Pan felt that the momentum was a little wrong, but he couldn't guess what was wrong, at this time, the soldier who had just led the way shouted outside the tent: "General, people have brought it." ”

There was a dull shouting from inside the tent: "Bring him in." ”

Chen Pan saw that the other party had arrived here, and he refused to come to greet him, so he had to tidy up his robe, hold his head high, and walk towards the tent, in the big tent, six or seven generals sat on both sides, and behind, dozens of soldiers held halberds, standing proudly, but Chen Pan did not have the slightest fear, he still regarded himself as a messenger of the Celestial Empire, and strode forward.

Approaching Qin Jia's side, Chen Pan arched his hand and smiled: "General Qin, you are such a big score." ”

Qin Jia ignored Chen Pan's reproach, only sneered at him for a while, and said with a smile: "I don't know what General Chen is here?" ”

Qin Jia's cold and arrogant attitude completely angered Chen Pan, he pointed at Qin Jia and said hatefully: "You...... Don't be ignorant, I came to see you to give you a chance, otherwise, you will annoy me, go back to tell my king, and destroy your three clans! ”

Chen Pan's tough posture not only did not frighten Qin Jia, but instead attracted his disdain and sneer, and then, Qin Jia pointed at Chen Pan angrily and scolded loudly: "King Chen Sheng has defeated Chen County, at this time, Zhang Chuguo has been taken over by Lu Chen, you don't want to be here to get me!" ”

After speaking, Qin Jia slowly got up, walked a few steps in the tent, came to Chen Pan, looked at him, and sneered: "King Chen Sheng can't restrain me, do I have to be bound by you alone?" ”

Seeing that the other party already knew the news of Chen Sheng's defeat and death, and that he was not afraid of himself at all, Chen Pan felt faintly bad in his heart, he immediately changed his tone, and said with a polite smile: "I was wrong just now, please don't blame the general, I came this time to unite with your army, crusade against the Qin army together, and raise the power of Donghai County, ......what do you think?" ”

Chen Pan cast an expectant glance at Qin Jia, but Qin Jia coldly refused: "I'm afraid, you don't have this chance!" ”

This time, Chen Pan faintly felt Qin Jia's killing intent, and he couldn't help but take two steps back, hesitating: "You...... What do you mean? ”

"What do you mean?" Qin Jia walked forward as he spoke, his right hand was already gripping the hilt of the sword, and he looked at Chen Pan coldly, and after a while, the sword light flashed, and Chen Pan was already in a different place.

Qin Jia looked at Chen Pan's corpse coldly, and snorted coldly: "Cooperate with rats like you? Don't! ”

Several soldiers came over, rummaged over Chen Pan's corpse, took out a token, and handed it to Qin Jia, only then did Chen Pan's corpse take away, at this time, Qin Jia carefully looked at the token, turned around and handed it to Zhu Jishi, and sneered: "You take this token, falsely claim that Chen Pan is drinking in my camp, let them gather soldiers and horses to listen to the order, what to do after that, you should understand......"

Qin Jia's eyes were far-reaching, Zhu Jishi nodded, and left quickly.
