Chen Congyun, who stayed, gathered more than 500 uninjured defeated soldiers for several consecutive days, all from Pan Dingxin's troops and ran back from Liangshan. Chen Congyun did not let go of any of them and detained them all.

It was not until the 19th that news came from the front that General Yang Yuke's commander retreated to Wenyuan to deploy defenses and led a battalion of officers and soldiers to the direction of Zhennan Pass.

Chen Congyun immediately led a sentry officer and soldiers to greet him. He walked halfway up the road and returned the outpost. General Yang Yuke was right in front.

Yang Yuke was a powerful general who died in the Sino-French War.

Chen Congyun felt much respect for Yang Yuke, and immediately rushed to meet him.

In the winding mountain road, at the corner of the mountain, Chen Chongyun saw a group of people and horses. He rode his horse first, and was a thin general.

Seeing someone coming to greet him from afar, Yang Yuke turned over and fell down, bowed and shouted loudly, "Who is the one coming in front?"

Chen Congyun did not dare to be negligent, so he turned over and got off his horse and stepped forward and responded: "The Shanghai Bureau will handle Chen Congyun and lead the crowd to welcome General Yang."

Yang Yuke obviously didn't expect that the one who came to greet him on the way was such a Shanghai Bureau that could not even beat him. What happened to you, those of you who are skilled in making guns and cannons on the battlefield?

"Mr. Shen, where is Pan Shuai? Quickly lead the vocational department to Jin to see him." Yang Yuke's department now has only half of the ammunition left, and the ammunition is almost done. He is anxious to find Pan Dingxin to solve the ammunition problem, so he naturally comes straight to the point.

Chen Congyun saw that Yang Yuke's face was still smokeless and his expression was haggard. His expression of worry about the war ahead could not help but feel infinite admiration in his heart. However, the general who was willing to sacrifice his life for the country did not have a good result?

"General Yang, Shuai Pan has retreated and led the defeated soldiers to retreat. At present, Zhennan Pass, the battalion of officers and soldiers under my officers were responsible for escorting arms, and the 500 registrars borrowed from Longzhou." Chen Congyun sighed to explain the situation. Yang Yuke was stunned on the spot. After a long time of rest, he looked up with a firm expression and said, "Why didn't Lord Shen go with Shuai Pan?"

"The situation is like this. Although guarding the pass is not the main office, but the country is in trouble, how can we bear to leave here? Although Congyun is a scholar, he is willing to follow the predecessors of the Western Han Dynasty who joined the army. At most, he can leave his life here and make a name for history." Chen Congyun said loudly and passionately. Yang Yuke showed respectful expressions on his face and bowed and smiled: "In this way, I will not go forward, and Zhennan Pass will be handed over to Lord Shen."

"General, don't worry. Even if Chen has a breath, he will never let Fayi step into Zhennan Pass." After that, Yang Yuke was about to turn around and leave.

Chen Congyun stepped forward and grabbed Yang Yuke and said, "General, walk slowly, and follow me to Zhennan Pass first."

Yang Yuke was stunned when he heard the sound, and then he said in confusion: "Why is Lord Shen like this? What else can I do to teach you?"

Chen Congyun smiled and said, "General, don't worry too much. I will try to keep you from being in a position of hiding, and you will know when you arrive at the gate."

Leading Yang Yuke with a puzzled look, Chen Congyun rushed all the way and led Yang Yuke to Zhennan Pass. When he arrived at the place, he called Wan Shusheng and whispered in front of Yang Yuke. Wan Shusheng nodded and took the order and left.

Soon, a sergeant officer and soldier came to the front with a small convoy. Chen Congyun then solved the mystery and said: "General Yang, here are Lin Mingden's 800 quick guns and 100,000 bullets. I will hand them over to the general."

Yang Yuke never expected that Chen Congyun had such a big deal. Yang Yuke's department was no better than Pan Dingxin's subordinates. He had almost no quick gun equipment. Even the muskets equipped with front-mounted were only less than half of them. Now, Shen Congyun's batch of bullets was said to be a timely help, which is not an exaggeration.

Although Yang Yuke was a military general, he was not stupid. He immediately thought of Pan Dingxin's fear of the enemy's escape, and couldn't help but raise the stern conjunction and worried: "Mr. Shen, such a large batch of arms will be handed over to the headquarters like this. How can you explain to the Zhongtang in the future?"

Chen Congyun smiled disdainfully and raised his eyebrows and said, "The bullets I brought will only be handed over to the troops that really kill the enemy for the country. Those cowards who fear the enemy like tigers and flee without fighting are not worthy of taking these bullets. As for Lord Zhongtang, isn't it just a small one to do it? If you don't do it, it's nothing to me."

Yang Yuke is a straightforward person. Chen Congyun said this, it is related to it. When the enemy is in front of him, his life is about to be thrown to the Zhennan Pass. Do you still care about a small official position?

"In this way, I will say goodbye." Yang Yuke stopped talking and bowed to his commander's side.

"General Yang, take care of yourself!" Chen Congyun shouted loudly, watching Yang Yuke's subordinates disappear from a distance, and turned around and roared: "Wan Shusheng! As agreed in advance, gather the team."

After a thousand soldiers lined up, the five hundred defeated soldiers were temporarily organized into a battalion, but they had no weapons in their hands. When they retreated, they were called Chen Congyun to get them down.

In the middle of the camp, dozens of boxes with open lids were placed there, with new guns with grey and yellow bullets exposed inside.

Chen Congyun was not wearing an official uniform, wearing a short shirt and straw sandals, and walked to the defeated soldiers with murderous aura. After glanced at them with disdain, he suddenly said loudly: "You bastards who have lost their ancestors for eight lifetimes, look at you, all of you are seven-foot-high men, and have no energy at all."

After cursing, no one dared to respond to the defeated soldiers. There was only a slight commotion. Chen Congyun shouted loudly again: "Now, the French have already hit the doorstep. I will give you a chance to meet your ancestors underground. Those who are willing to stay and follow me to guard the pass and kill the enemy. If you go to the front, you will stand with guns and bullets. If you don't want to, you will get out of here immediately. I set up a table at the gate of the military camp and go there to collect five taels of silver for travel. I don't need a coward here."

After scolding the defeated soldiers, Chen Congyun turned around and pointed a horse whip at the 500th battalion of soldiers and soldiers who had been trained in the 500th regiment of the battalion: "The same is true for you. If you are willing to stay, stand a step forward, and leave a gun and go to the door to collect the travel expenses."

As soon as Chen Congyun finished speaking, Wan Shusheng took a step forward with a smile, turned around and shouted to his subordinates: "I am the first to follow Lord Shen." Wan Shusheng's first battalion of officers and soldiers took a step forward in unison, and no one was willing to leave.

The 500 Guangxi men in Longzhou trained to guard Zhennan Pass in order to protect their hometown. Who would be willing to fall behind and be ridiculed when they go back to their hometown in the future?

"Don't lose his mother! Lord Shen guards Zhennan Pass to guard the door of the house for everyone. In order to prevent the relatives of the family from being bullied by foreigners, he will follow me forward." Li Yaozu, the battalion officer of the Longzhou Tuanzhuang, shouted at the top of his lungs and walked forward with a big stance. Five hundred Longzhou men also took a big step forward.

At this time, among the more than 500 defeated soldiers, a strong man quietly walked out, walked to the arms box, picked up a gun, skillfully fiddled with it, and stood there silently.

With the first one, then the defeated soldiers walked to the arms, took guns, bullets and bayonets, and silently lined up. To say that these defeated soldiers could run so far back, their physical fitness was not much worse. This is what Chen Congyun felt most at ease.

None of the defeated soldiers of more than 500 people said they had left, and all of them received bullets and stood in line.

Chen Congyun then showed a satisfied expression, walked to the first soldier who stood up, pointed at him with a horse whip and said, "You, get out of the line!"

The man stood forward, thrusting his chest.

"What's your name? What did you do before?"

"Reporting to Master Cao Yi, he used to be a deputy battalion officer in the Ding Army."

Chen Congyun gently hit Cao Yi on the shoulder with a whip, and smiled and said, "Very good, he is a man. Starting today, you are the temporary camp officer of more than 500 people."

"Thank you for your support!" Cao Yi shouted and responded.

Chen Congyun then faced the defeated soldiers and shouted loudly: "Okay, no five hundred people are cowards." After that, he turned his head and shouted behind him, "Come on me."

Four soldiers came to the middle with two boxes. Chen Congyun shouted, "Open!"

The box was opened, and two boxes of silver were exposed inside.

"Let me know. These silvers are for your settlement fee. I am not a rich man. I can only pay twenty taels of silver per person. I have received the money and want to take it home to my wife and children. I will go to the table at the door and leave my name and address. I promise to send it to your house. I am willing to keep it for my own use, and I will not fuck you even more."

Shen Congyun, who had a gentle face, said such swear words at this time immediately caused a group of soldiers to burst into laughter.

Chen Congyun waited for everyone to laugh and ordered the personnel who had been arranged early to start paying the money. Chen Congyun called Wan Shusheng, Li Yaozu and Cao Yi came over and went to the camp to discuss military affairs.

"Everyone, I am a scholar. Please give me this battle." Chen Congyun bowed and went straight to the topic.

"I wish to die for the Lord!" The three of them stepped forward and responded loudly.
