At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 576
It is said that after Cheng Yaojin paid homage to Zhang Xutuo that day, he planned to seek refuge with Gao Bufan. He stayed overnight all the way to Youzhou, and when he arrived in Hejian County, he suddenly woke up. Maybe it will make others look down on it.

On this day, Cheng Yaojin was passing through Boye County, and happened to meet a group of thieves blocking the road to rob, so he killed the leader of the group of thieves and became the boss himself.At this time, Lao Cheng suddenly had an idea and thought of an idea, so he started a black-and-white business.

In times of troubled times, there is a shortage of everything, but there is no shortage of thieves who do business without capital. Cheng Yaojin led a group of local thieves to "kick the hall" around, and after killing the boss of the other party, he swallowed up the gang of thieves. Suddenly, let him snowball a team of three 400 people.

Seeing that the fire was almost ready, Cheng Yaojin led the bandit army to continue northward to Youzhou. On the way, he happened to meet Pei Xingyan leading the army southward, fighting the flag of Youzhou, so this guy had an idea and made this show. It seems to be nonsense, but it is actually to show one's own strength.

Pei Xingyan had heard of Cheng Yaojin's name, and Gao Bufan had mentioned this to him before, so he couldn't help but said happily: "It's General Cheng, I've known his name for a long time."

Cheng Yaojin snorted and said, "You've also heard of my old Cheng?"

Pei Xingyan smiled and said: "General Cheng is too modest. Who doesn't know that General Zhang has three generals under his command. Qin Shubao, Luo Shixin and Cheng Yaojin are all brave and good at fighting. By the way, General Qin and General Luo are not with you?"

When Pei Xingyan was in Liaodong, he fought side by side with Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin, so he knew each other well, while Cheng Yaojin met him for the first time.

Cheng Yaojin said with an unnatural expression: "After General Zhang died in battle, everyone separated. They were not with me, and they don't know where they are now. When I woke up, I still had a little friendship with Director Gao, so I came to seek refuge alone. gone."

Pei Xingyan said with a bit of regret: "I see."

Cheng Yaojin obviously didn't want to mention that disgraceful past anymore. Although he didn't betray Zhang Xutuo, he did become a deserter at the critical moment, and he felt a little guilty. He didn't agree with Zhang Xutuo's ideas. Zhang Xutuo Tuo was utterly loyal to Da Sui and devoted himself to everything, but he was already tired of this dilapidated dynasty and did not want to continue working for Da Sui.

"Brother Pei is making a big fuss, which one is he going to attack?" Cheng Yaojin changed the subject, and called Pei Xingyan very familiarly as Brother Pei.

Pei Xingyan is also a straightforward person. Since Cheng Yaojin came to seek refuge in Youzhou, he naturally welcomed him very well, so he told Cheng Yaojin the purpose of his trip. When he heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "In that case, My old Cheng has a plan to help little brother Pei."

"The plan will come out?" Pei Xingyanhu questioned, Cheng Yaojin is big and thick, with pig eyes and bulbous nose, he looks like a reckless man at first glance, can he really have a good plan?

Cheng Yaojin chuckled, pointed to the minions behind him and asked, "What do Brother Xiao Pei think of my subordinates like Old Cheng?"

Pei Xingyan sweated, and said bluntly: "It's not bad, the melons are crooked, the military looks are loose, and they don't even have complete weapons. Don't tell me, these are the soldiers of the Eight Wind Camp under General Zhang's command."

Cheng Yaojin gave a thumbs up and said: "Brother Pei really has good eyesight. These crooked melons and cracked dates are all thieves I collected halfway through Cheng. How can the goods be Bafengying, not even worthy of carrying shoes!"

Zhou A Niu of the Huntian Knife can't help but have black lines all over his head, can the head of the family give everyone a little face, a couple a day, a hundred days of kindness, anyway, we also messed with you for a month.

Pei Xingyan was a little puzzled, and asked: "General Cheng has something to say, so let's talk about it. What's the best plan?"

Cheng Yaojin laughed and said: "Brother Xiao Pei, don't worry, my old Cheng will tell you in detail, I am here to seek refuge with Director Gao this time, and I am not very embarrassed to accept these people empty-handed, so I accepted these people, but you have seen it, although There are as many as three to 400 people, but they are all crooked and cracked dates. I really can’t do anything. If I can help Brother Xiao Pei defeat Su Dingfang this time, it will be regarded as a gift from my old Cheng to Director Gao.”

Pei Xingyan couldn't help but suddenly realized: "So that's the case, don't worry, it should be my Pei Xingyan's credit, I won't lose a single point, if it wasn't for my Pei Xingyan's credit, I don't want a single point, if General Cheng can help me, I, Pei Xingyan, will personally ask Gao for you. Please, sir."

Cheng Yaojin immediately smiled and said: "Brother Xiao Pei said, my old Cheng will go through fire and water, and I will do my best!"

At this moment, Pei Xingyan finally understood that Cheng Yaojin looked rough on the outside, but he was actually very shrewd.

Cheng Yaojin beckoned, led Pei Xingyan aside, and said in a low voice: "Brother Pei, my old Cheng went ahead and pretended to take refuge in Su Dingfang to deceive him into trusting him, and then Brother Xiao Pei came with an army to serve as the two men." When the army was facing each other, I suddenly launched an attack and cooperated with the inside and outside, and I will definitely defeat them in one fell swoop."

Pei Xingyan said happily: "This is indeed a good strategy, but those crooked melons and dates under your command may not work."

Cheng Yaojin nodded and said: "That's true, so it's better for Brother Xiao Pei to use a hundred of my masters to sneak into the team, and pretend to be the brothers of Bafengying who escaped with me. In this way, it will be better earn the trust of Su Dingfang."

"Okay, no problem!" Pei Xingyan naturally couldn't wait for it. To be honest, this guy Cheng Yaojin behaved so shrewdly, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, and sent a reliable person to follow Cheng Yaojin, so it was better to be nearby. Monitor him, lest he be sold and count the money for the other party.

Next, the two agreed on some details and started to take action. Pei Xingyan selected a hundred masters, led by Cui Zijian, to mix with Cheng Yaojin's group of crooked melons and dates as support.

Afterwards, Cheng Yaojin left excitedly with his people, and Pei Xingyan was also cautious for a rare time, and reported the situation to Gao Bufan. If it's not right, someone will definitely be sent to remind or assist him.

Besides, after Dou Jiande's general Su Dingfang led an army of [-] into Hejian County, he first conquered Leshou, and then continued to attack Hejian County northward.

Hejian County is the seat of the county seat of Hejian County. The county governor Wang Cong looked down on Dou Jiande, who came from a humble background, and had no intention of surrendering to Dou Jiande, so he led his troops to defend the city. For the price, he couldn't help being furious, and vowed to cut off Wang Cong's head after breaking the city. As a result, Wang Cong defended the city even more desperately.

In the evening of that day, Su Dingfang still failed to break through the city, so he withdrew his troops and returned to the camp in a huff. Jin, came here to join our general because of the reputation."

Su Dingfang's heart moved, there seemed to be a guy named Cheng Yaojin under Zhang Xutuo, he waved and said, "Bring him up!"

After a little leaning, Cheng Yaojin was led into the tent, with empty hands, obviously asked to disarm.

Su Dingfang shot Cheng Yaojin up and down, and asked suspiciously: "Are you Cheng Yaojin under Zhang Xutuo's command?"

"It's guaranteed to be a fake one." Cheng Yaojin patted his big belly and said.

A personal soldier approached Su Dingfang and whispered in Su Dingfang's ear: "This man uses two axes, each of which weighs forty or fifty catties, which is amazing."

Su Dingfang nodded secretly when he heard the words. It is said that Cheng Yaojin under Zhang Xutuo's command is indeed a double-axe wielder. It seems that this person should be Cheng Yaojin. What you have in your hands, how dare you come to seek refuge? Are you really not afraid of death?"

Cheng Yaojin smiled and said: "First of all, Gao Shida, the Duke of Donghai, killed himself, and it is difficult for a real hero. Secondly, the two armies are fighting, each is the master, and life and death are determined by fate. No wonder others. Thirdly, this time, my old Cheng If you, Su Dingfang, kill me, will anyone dare to come to join you in the future?"

Su Dingfang was upset, but he had to admit that what the other party said was indeed true, and said lightly: "There are so many heroes in the world, why do you want to rely on us?"

Cheng Yaojin smiled: "I would like to take refuge in Li Mi, but General Zhang died in his hands. If my old Cheng took refuge in him, it would be unreasonable. Moreover, many people in Wagang died in my hands, it is inevitable Someone will seek revenge, and I don't want to have my head chopped off while I'm asleep.

My old Cheng sees the heroes of the world, besides Li Mi, is General Dou. It is said that General Dou is benevolent, tolerant, generous, and loves soldiers like sons, so I came to seek refuge. "

Su Dingfang's expression turned pale when he heard the words, and he said calmly: "General Cheng has a bit of vision, may I ask how many people are there under General Cheng's command?"

Cheng Yaojin stretched out a slap and said, "About 500 people, a hundred people belong to my old department, and the rest are all thieves I captured on the road."

Su Dingfang was moved in his heart and said: "Bring your people to the front of the camp and let this general have a look."

So Cheng Yaojin left the camp and brought over 500 people under his command. Su Dingfang knew what he had seen, and allowed Cheng Yaojin to bring people into the camp, and designated a place for them to camp.

One of Su Dingfang's soldiers was a little worried and said: "General Su, I don't know if this Cheng Yaojin is reliable. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to let him enter the camp?"

Su Dingfang said indifferently: "It's okay, look at those people under his command. They don't even have weapons. There are less than a hundred people who can fight. Even if they hide evil intentions, they can make any trouble. Now it is like imprisoning them in the camp and sending them tomorrow Siege, whether you are sincerely seeking refuge, you will know once you try it."

The soldier heard the words and said with a smile: "That's right, General Su is more considerate, then we will be the first to send Cheng Yaojin to lead the battle tomorrow. If we don't work hard, I'm afraid we didn't come here sincerely."
