"I heard that there is a scholar in Yingchuan Changsha, named Zhong Yao, whose character is Chang, Zhicai, you go to persuade him to vote tomorrow. If this is successful, your merits and demerits will be equalized. Okay, you go out and ask your elder brother and the public to vote. Come here, I have something important to discuss with you." Xi Zhicai exited the room and found two people.

After a while, the three of them came to the bed together, and Dian Wei asked, "Second brother, why do you want everyone to come here?"

Chen Yaotian closed his eyes and leaned on the bed to recuperate. Hearing Dian Wei's question, he opened his eyes and directly expressed his thoughts.

"Nowadays we have to do many things by ourselves. I want to build a personal guard. What do you think?"

The three of them all felt that it was necessary, as Chen Yaotian was the prefect of a county, he must have a certain amount of protection by his side.Recruiting soldiers and horses requires money and food, so Chen Yaotian asked Dian Wei how many people he could equip with the money collected from Master Wang two days ago.When talking about the money of the previous two days, Dian Wei's eyes lit up, with a tendency to turn into a miser, and he said excitedly: "That guy is very rich, conservatively estimated that he can equip at least 1000 people."

Chen Yaotian was startled, Dian Wei didn't react when he saw Bai Jin before, no wonder his eyes glowed this time.At first, I thought it would be good to equip 500 people, but I didn't expect half more, and now I have to re-measure it.After thinking about it for a while, Chen Yaotian decided to recruit 500 soldiers. Soldiers are used to fight the enemy on the battlefield.Then he said: "Brother, recruit five hundred strong and brave men to join the army. It doesn't matter if you spend more money, but you must get me a guard with combat effectiveness. When you go with Gongda tomorrow, he is The children of the Yingchuan family, recruiting the two of you together should save a lot of unnecessary trouble!"

The next day, Xi Zhicai left home alone for the Changshe.Dian Wei and Xun You went to the city to select soldiers.When I came to the city, I posted recruitment information on the wall, and soon the surrounding area was surrounded by circles.From time to time, someone came forward to ask for registration.Dian Wei strictly followed Chen Yaotian's wishes and selected all strong men.After six days of selection, the establishment of 500 people was finally assembled.

After Chen Yaotian's self-cultivation for a week, as long as he doesn't do strenuous exercise, he will be fine.On this day, Xi Zhi brought one person back.This person is Zhong Yao. When he saw Chen Yaotian, he stepped forward and said: "You, meet the lord." Chen Yaotian was overjoyed, and immediately helped him up, and exclaimed excitedly: "I have the same relationship with Yuan Chang, and I have another one." Arm, very fortunate!" Zhong Yao dared not dare.

The next day, Chen Yaotian and his group set off for Dian's house, and all Xi's family members were invited to accompany them.After picking up Dianjia's family, they headed north all the way.Along the way, he saw many homeless refugees, Chen Yaotian couldn't bear to see them fend for themselves, so he recruited his own guards and ordered them to collect the refugees along the way.By the time they arrived in Jizhou, more than [-] people had gathered.

On this day, Xi Zhicai, Xun You and Zhong Yao came to Chen Yaotian's side hand in hand, Xi Zhicai, as one of the first to join Chen Yaotian, said: "Master, we have gathered so many refugees all the way, if this continues, The food will definitely not be enough." Chen Yaotian was only focused on getting people to gather the refugees along the way, he didn't think about the food problem, secretly thinking that he didn't think about it. "Now we have enough food for how many days?"

"It's only enough for three days, and all the money in hand is used to equip the five hundred guards after buying food! My lord, now we are almost at the end of our rope, why don't we disperse these refugees! In this way, we can last longer Some time." The three of Xi Zhicai had no choice but to make such a bad plan.Chen Yaotian immediately vetoed this decision, looking at the fresh lives behind him, if they were abandoned, how many people would be able to survive this winter?Rubbing his forehead, Chen Yaotian said: "Zhicai, let's go to the city to see if we can borrow some food from the local rich people. The two of you and my eldest brother will camp here and wait for us to come back." After speaking, he recruited fifty relatives Wei went straight to the county seat.

When they came to the county town, Sifang found out that there was a well-to-do Mr. Yan in the west of the city. This person often set up a tent outside the city to give porridge to the refugees from all over the world. Chen Yaotian and his entourage went to visit.

When I came to the west of the city, I saw a large house with the word "Yan's Mansion" written on it.Chen Yaotian personally stepped forward to reveal his identity, and was personally received by Mr. Yan and his son.

After sitting down, Chen Yaotian said: "Master Yan, to tell you the truth, I went to Shanggu County to take up the post. On the way, I saw many refugees displaced, so I gathered them together and wanted them to go to Shanggu County to settle down. However, there are too many people. I can't help you anymore. Please help!", Master Yan, who was a kind person, heard that Chen Yaotian was in such an embarrassing situation in order to recruit refugees, so he agreed.He told his son beside him, "Liang'er, go out and ask the housekeeper to prepare a thousand shi of grain and give it to Taishou Chen." Chen Yaotian was overjoyed, with these grains, he could solve his urgent need.After thanking them, several people started their daily routine.After learning that the person who went out just now was named Yan Liang, Chen Yaotian's eyelids twitched unconsciously.Now there are three civil servants, Xun You and Zhong Yao, and Dian Wei is the only general.Yan Liang was also invited for this trip to the north.It's just that there is no record of his birthplace in the history books of later generations, and he did not expect to meet him here.Now that we have met, there is no reason to let it go.Chen Yaotian concocted some good words, and tentatively said: "Master Yan, a man should go to battle to kill the enemy, report to the emperor, and serve the common people. He can also gain some fame for himself. Am I right?" How did the conversation come to this point, but what the other party said was quite reasonable, so he nodded and said: "Chen Taishou is right, a man should be eight feet tall and make a name for himself."

"I see that Yan Liang is quite brave, and I want to keep him by my side. I don't think Master Yan will object!" Seeing that the other party has a crush on his son, although Master Yan didn't want to let him go, he changed his mind to let him exercise for a while. Fan is not bad, so he agreed.After Yan Liang came back, he ordered him to follow Chen Yaotian to transport grain.

This trip to the city can be said to be very fruitful, not only borrowed food, but also got Yan Liang, a fierce general, Chen Yaotian was all smiles along the way.After returning to the camp, he went to the main tent and ordered the guards to recruit Dian Wei, Yan Liang, Xi Zhicai, Xun You and Zhong Yao.

Chen Yaotian sat on the main seat, and the five people separated into two sides.Chen Yaotian cleared his throat, and said: "Today, Yan Liang's father gave us a thousand shi of grain, which solved our urgent need. It is still difficult to follow our previous route. I want to lead everyone to take a shortcut, but Hejian, Julu and There are talents in the three plains, and I can't bear to give up. You go for me and invite them to Shanggu!"

In the past, everyone didn't understand why they had to take a detour, but now they suddenly realized that the emotional Chen Yaotian invited talents along the way.
