After seeing Zhang Dingguo's report, he felt a little relieved. At least so far, everything was being implemented as planned.

Sun Chuanting was also in the chat group. After learning that Zhang Dingguo had set out, he reported his position to let Zhang Dingguo know. At the same time, Lu Ruipeng and Zhang Fengyi also reported their position respectively. That night, many people were sleepless.

At this time, the function of chat groups to communicate instantly is extremely important. This makes all parties involved in the action, especially Sun Chuanting and Zhang Dingguo, more at ease, reducing the possibility of errors.

Just like now, under the faint moonlight in the middle of the night, Sun Chuanting led his men to walk along the official road without turrets. Even if he saw a few torches coming from Balipu, he was still very calm and without any panic. Because they could know through the chat group who the other party was.

After the two sides were relatively close, Zhang Xianzhong ordered everyone to stop moving forward, and he only brought a few confidants without turbulence, but just used the faint moonlight to meet him.

Of course, at this distance, others could vaguely see many people on the official road ahead. They were naturally curious and guessing who the other party was? But no one could have thought that the people on the other side would be Dai County Official Army.

"The last general Zhang Xianzhong, have met Lord Sun!" Zhang Xianzhong's posture was very low. As soon as he met, he whispered as an official.

Although he was actually a guerrilla general recognized by the court at this time, and Sun Chuanting was just a former official who resigned and returned home. But he knew that after this battle, Sun Chuanting would be highly valued by the court. He had long thought about his attitude when contacting him as a ruthless person who could take him as a dangerous person.

Zhang Xianzhong's opening remark made most of the Dai County officials relieved. Lord Sun did not lie, and there was really someone here to respond!

When Sun Chuanting heard this, he felt a fond of this thief general. He knew that Zhang Dingguo in the chat group was his adopted son, so he didn't dare to be too arrogant. He immediately responded in a low voice: "Thank you for your hard work, General, it's still half an hour before dawn. You and I will prepare early!"

While speaking, he turned over and dismounted.

"As long as you please tell me!" Zhang Xianzhong responded immediately.

Neither party has to inform you of whom, what preparations to do, or what to do next. Because these details have been communicated in the chat group, both parties are clear about it.

The Dai County officials and soldiers did not need to give orders, and under Sun Chuanting's orders, they all quickly started to unload things from the back of the animals and were busy preparing. About a quarter of an hour later, after they were ready, Zhang Xianzhong returned and brought him and Liu Guoneng's people over.

There were about three hundred people on one side and more than four hundred people on the other side. When the two sides met under the night, under the illumination of several torches, they finally made people see each other in a vague way.

At the beginning, when the bandits saw the other party wearing the Ming army's battle robe, they thought that the other party was just a soldier in the peasant army, just like them. However, when they saw a person in the costumes of a civil servant standing in the leader, they felt something was wrong. Because there was no such person among the bandits, this is certain. But no matter what, they could not think that the other party was a real official army.

Zhang Xianzhong stood beside Sun Chuanting and glanced at him. Seeing that he and Liu Guoneng’s confidants were scattered in the team, he shouted sternly: “Zhang, brothers Liu and others have been recruited by the court and have been named guerrilla generals. We will cooperate with Lord Sun to eliminate the bandits tonight. Before the three armies of the court meet in Tianming, we must make a contribution, so that everyone will have a great future. If anyone does not follow, don’t blame Zhang for being ruthless!”

As soon as they said this, the soldiers of the bandits were shocked. Zhang Xianzhong's words revealed too much information, which they had never expected before.

First, Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng have been recruited by the court and have been named guerrilla generals. And according to his opinion, it seems that the leader is also recruited together.

Second, these people in front of him were actually the imperial army, or a commander named Sun Wen, who was higher than the guerrilla general, who came to wipe out the bandits.

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

Fourth, they are subordinates of Zhang Xianzhong, Liu Guoneng and others. Since Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng are guerrillas, if they make contributions to this battle, they may have a single official position.

At this time, the benefits of Sun Chuanting taking the Dai County Officer Army came out. If it weren't for them, Zhang Xianzhong and others would encourage them to rebel. Even if they were talking about it in a scattered manner, they might have hesitated and could not believe it.

But at this moment, they saw that there were indeed an official army. Although it seemed that the number of people was not large, they thought it was just a vanguard, and there were civil servants in charge, which effectively proved that what Zhang Xianzhong said was true.

As long as you are not a fool, after a little bit of measurement, no one will jump out at this time to accuse Zhang Xianzhong of rebelling against the enemy. As Zhang Xianzhong said, most people are forced to rebel in order to survive. With a better choice at this time, who would be willing to be a thief!

It would be nonsense to say that someone would expect that they could rebel successfully at this time. For them, one is that they cannot see the future, hide from all over the world, fear, and do not know when they will be caught up and wiped out by the government army, but they will only have a day to live a day; the other is that they will completely get rid of the existing difficulties and be able to shine their ancestors. No one will choose the wrong choice, not to mention that the current situation is obvious. If they do not agree, they will be killed.

From a certain perspective, they were brought here to showdown at this moment, just not giving them a chance to choose.

Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng's confidants had already known about this situation in advance, so they responded immediately.

"We listen to my elder brother, I can do whatever I say!"

"Brother is right. We just have to force it. If you have a way out, you will definitely not do this headless thing!"

"I have such a good opportunity to return home in glory, I've done it!"

“…”

These people took the lead in expressing their opinions, and there were so many officials around the side, so the others did not hesitate and immediately followed. Even if some people valued loyalty in the world, they would at most have a smaller voice and less confidence.

Zhang Xianzhong was happy to see that he and Liu Guoneng did not disappoint him, and he was not embarrassed in front of Sun Chuanting.

Thinking of this, he turned around to face Sun Chuanting, bowed and replied, "Sir, it's OK!"

Thank you for the reward from Cema Tianxia DHB! I still owe updates tomorrow.
Chapter completed!
