The two of them were so busy that they had to face each other.

Ran Min put down his weapon and walked steadily to the place where Chen Sheng had sat.

Huh!

He turned around suddenly like a whirlwind, his eyes were as hot as torches, and his gaze was as sharp as a blade.

In a moment, Ran Min said sternly: "Li Nong, Wang Tai, Cui Tong, Zhou Cheng!"

These four people are all Ran Min's right-hand men.

"I am here!"

They bowed in unison, their voices as loud as a bell.

"Quickly eliminate Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's confidants and take control of the army."

"Yes, General!"

The four men left quickly, but within an hour, all four men returned to report that they had taken control of the army.

So!

Chen County, which Chen Sheng and Wu Guang had taken with blood and blood, was now owned by Ran Min.

At this moment,

The anti-Qin forces in Chen County were surging like an undercurrent, and they were all planning to join the rebels.

In a private house in Chen County, Wei Ju, the son of the Wei State, and Zhou Shi were conspiring to join the rebels.

"Sir, if we join the rebels in such a hurry, I'm afraid we won't be taken seriously. Now that the rebels have captured Chen County, they will probably quickly capture the surrounding counties. We might as well go to the county and recruit soldiers."

"As long as we are strong, the rebels will naturally not dare to underestimate us."

Zhou Shi was a key figure in the restoration of the Wei State in the late Qin Dynasty, and he was very wise.

As soon as the voice fell, Wei Ju nodded slightly to show his agreement.

However,

As a prince of Wei, Wei Ju was demoted to a commoner after Qin destroyed Wei. He was penniless and could not raise funds to recruit soldiers.

Although he agreed with Zhou Shi's point of view, Wei Ju still looked worried.

Zhou Shi noticed Wei Ju's concerns and knew his predicament. He said in a deep voice: "Are you worried about the funds? Don't worry, although Zhou Shi is not a famous family in Chen County, he has a lot of family wealth."

"I will sell my family property and recruit more than a thousand soldiers."

Wei Ju was relieved when he heard it.

"Thank you, General."

At the same time,

Han, Zhao Gao, Qi, Yan and other anti-Qin remnants were like a flock of sparrows, and they all agreed to join the righteous army.

Some gentry in Chen County also wanted to donate generously to support the righteous army.

Chen County was the capital of the State of Chen in the past. After the State of Chen was destroyed, it was incorporated into the territory of Chu.

The local gentry were mostly descendants of the State of Chen or the State of Chu, and they were resentful of the Qin.

That day, Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu conquered Kuaiji County, and the Chu nobles in Chen County cheered.

When the Chu army was destroyed, the nobles burst into tears.

It is said in history that "Even if there are only three households in Chu, it will be Chu that will destroy Qin."

After Qin destroyed Chu, the nobles of Chu were not placed under house arrest, but scattered all over the country.

Many nobles of Chu became local celebrities and accumulated a lot of wealth after years of hard work.

This is also the reason why Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu were able to recruit soldiers and have abundant wealth.

Because of this, no one dared to act rashly.

Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu in Kuaiji County were a lesson learned from the past.

At the same time,

Zhou Bo also rushed back to Pei County without stopping and went straight to Liu Ji's residence.

Soon, Liu Ji, Xiao He, Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo and others sat together under the big tree in Liu Ji's yard.

Xiao He said with a smile: "Haha, I said long ago that Brother Zhou Bo will succeed immediately once he takes action."

Liu Ji also responded with a smile: "Of course, Brother Zhou Bo is both wise and brave, and this matter is just a piece of cake for him." Zhou Bo was a little shy after being praised: "You are too kind!"

Suddenly,

Liu Ji's face sank, and his expression became solemn. He looked at Xiao He with a sharp gaze and asked:

"Brother Xiao, now that Chen Sheng and Wu Guang have successfully conquered Chen County, the tyrannical Qin will inevitably focus on Chen County. Should we take this opportunity to capture Pei County and respond to them from afar?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions instantly became serious, and they all cast their eyes on Xiao He.

Xiao He was their think tank, and such a major action was generally based on Xiao He's opinion.

A full quarter of an hour passed before Xiao He slowly said, "The time is not yet ripe."

As soon as the words fell!

Everyone looked at Xiao He with confusion.

"Everyone, although Chen Sheng and Wu Guang captured Chen County, it is still unknown whether they will repeat the mistakes of the Chu nobles and be wiped out by the tyrannical Qin in a whirlwind. If we rashly raise troops to capture Pei County, we will face the tyrannical Qin cavalry directly." "May I ask everyone, what are our chances of winning against the tyrannical Qin cavalry?"

As soon as these words came out, it was like a basin of cold water poured over their heads, and everyone was silent!

Indeed!

None of them dared to boast that they could defeat

The Qin cavalry.

"Xiao He, are we just going to wait like this?"

"If so, why should we rebel against Qin? I'll just be a good butcher!"

The one who spoke was the impatient Fan Kuai!

The last time Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu captured Wu County, Fan Kuai clamored to send troops to capture Pei County.

But he was stopped by Xiao He with a sentence that the time was not right.

Now!

Chen Sheng and Wu Guang captured Chen County, and Xiao He said the same thing again.

How could Fan Kuai bear it?

Xiao He shook his head helplessly and said, "Brother Fan Kuai, don't worry. Although we can't raise troops to attack Pei County, why can't we recruit soldiers?"

As soon as these words came out, it was like throwing a stone into the water, stirring up thousands of waves, and everyone was stunned.

"Xiao He, what do you mean?"

Xiao He smiled and explained: "You may not know that the county magistrate has long been dissatisfied with the brutal Qin Dynasty. He also has the intention to rebel against Qin, but he is as timid as a mouse and can't accomplish anything big. However, as long as I can convince him, he will definitely not care about our recruitment of soldiers and horses."

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this.

At this time,

Although Liu Ji had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, they were like hiding in the mountains. He had to be careful to purchase military supplies every day for fear of disturbing the county government, and even traveled far to other counties or county seats.

Now hearing what Xiao He said, Liu Ji secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Liu Ji said with a serious look:

"Fan Kuai, you go to Qin County quickly; Zhou Bo, you go to Xincai; I will go to Pingyu in person; Zhou Chang, you go to Shangcai; Xiahou Ying, you go to Xiang County. You must do your best to recruit soldiers and horses."

A sly look flashed in Liu Ji's eyes, as if everything was under his control.

Now,

It is not easy to recruit soldiers and horses in Pei County, but Chen County has just been captured by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, and other counties must be in panic.

Under this situation, recruiting soldiers and horses is naturally easy.

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison.

At the same time, in the Chen County Governor's Mansion, Ran Min sat in the study waiting for Ying Mo's next instructions.

Suddenly,

There was a rapid knock on the door,

"Knock, knock!"

"Come in!"

With a "creak", the door slowly opened, and Li Nong walked in, bowing and saying:

"General, there is a man who claims to be Zhuge Liang asking for an audience."

When Ran Min heard this, he was startled.

Zhuge Liang?

Who is he?

He hesitated slightly, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Let him in."

Not long after, Zhuge Liang appeared in Ran Min's study.

He was holding a feather fan, calm and composed, as if he was a hermit.

Ran Min looked Zhuge Liang up and down, his eyes full of curiosity.

Zhuge Liang spoke first without waiting for Ran Min to ask: "General Ran Min, the Sixth Prince specially sent me to assist you."

His voice was as pleasant as a spring, convincing.
