His previous guesses were just guesses after all, and after knowing the other party's true purpose, he could decide on his next move.

Dong Ce pondered, if this time it was really too risky, then Cao Wenzhao would have no choice but not to save him, and he couldn't lose himself here because of Cao Wenzhao. He rescued Cao Wenzhao, first, in order to protect the brave generals in the three towns of Shaanxi, and also to protect the strongest and only cavalry team in the three provinces of Shaanxi. Second, of course, it is also to make a great contribution to yourself.

But if you pay for your life for meritorious service, it is too unworthy.

This can't be blamed on Dong Ce, no way, in the last years of the cannibalistic Ming Dynasty, if you don't make a utilitarian profit, you really can't survive.

Thinking of this, Dong Ce instructed Bai Zhongqi outside the account: "Bai Zhongqi, you go and invite a few generals, by the way, and Alatan Ula, invite him too." ”

"Yes."

Bai Zhongqi answered, and immediately went down to give the order.

After a while, the three generals and Alatan Ula were all invited over, and Dong Ce summoned them together, gave them a face-to-face lecture, and gave them a low command.

Chen Dadu is a captain, and he can be regarded as an official residence. Of course, the grade mentioned here is not the official rank of the imperial court, but the grade of the rebel army.

To say that it is the Righteous Army is too general, after all, the Righteous Army has many banners and many departments. If it is more accurate, he is a lieutenant under Li Zicheng, a general under Gao Yingxiang, the king of Chuang.

Chen Dadu is a native of Mizhi County, Yan'an Prefecture, Shaanxi Province, and speaking of which, he and Li Zicheng and Li Chuang are still fellow villagers. In fact, the two are not just fellows. When Li Zicheng was in Mizhi County, he knew Chen Dadu. There is a large family in Mizhi County, named Ai Jia -- this Ai member has a very powerful person, who is the deputy chief soldier of the official residence, holds a heavy army, and is powerful. This deputy commander-in-chief is Ai Wannian, the deputy commander-in-chief of Gushan who died in the battle in Ningzhou just a few days ago.

His death at the hands of Li Zicheng can be regarded as a cycle of cause and effect, and retribution is unpleasant. Before Li Zicheng had an incident, he had borrowed a loan shark from Ai Yuanwai's house, but he had no money to repay the loan, so he was arrested by Ai Yuanwai's family and exposed to the scorching sun, and he was beaten very badly and suffered a lot of humiliation.

At that time, Chen Dadu was a tenant of the Ai family.

The two have a good relationship, are commensurate with each other, and even go back to each other's homes to eat and live.

Later, when Li Zicheng defected to the rebel army, Chen Dadu followed him to participate. After all these years, Chen Dadu is still only a mere six-rank lieutenant, and those who followed Li Zicheng to join the rebel army at the beginning were mixed up poorly at this time, and most of them had the rank of general. In the officer system of the Righteous Army, with the word general on the title, it is at least a fifth-grade official.

Speaking of which, this is also related to Chen Dadu's character. The degree in Chen Dadu's current name is the degree of bearing, and he was also called Chen Da Belly at the beginning, but it was the belly of the belly. The reason why he got this name is because he has been able to eat since he was a child, and one person eats more than three others. As the saying goes, half the eldest child eats the poor old man, his family is not rich in the first place, and he can eat so much, he forcibly eats the family with four walls, and there is no food at all. Later, he suffered another famine, and in desperation, his parents had to take him away from his hometown and become a homeless person.

Later, his parents died on the road, and he was exiled to Mizhi County and worked as a long-term worker in the Ai family.

He can still eat so much, but this guy can eat, but he can work. He is strong, a head taller than everyone else, more than a lap larger, and he has a lot of strength, and he is willing to work hard. He is actually the kind of person who is very real and even a little stupid, the Ai family takes care of him and eats enough, so he works for the Ai family to the death, plus his skills in serving the crops are very good, and he serves the fields well.

Chen Dadu is not a local, and he has no relatives and friends in the local area, so many people in Ai Yuanwai's family bullied him, and some tenants and long-term workers in Ai Yuan's family are no exception. But there is only one person who is very good to him, and that person is Li Zicheng. Once Li Zicheng met him when he went to Ai's house to borrow debts, and the two became brothers in life and death.

So when Li Zicheng defected to the rebels, he followed without hesitation, and he stayed for many years.

However, his temperament is really not suitable for being an official, and there is no open and secret fighting in the righteous army, and when it comes to struggle, it is no worse than the Ming system. Chen Dadu is the kind of very honest character, he doesn't know if he suffers a loss, and he has not had a long memory after being calculated several times, so this official position has never been promoted, and he is only a six-rank lieutenant until now.

But that's all in the past.

Li Zicheng was not as powerful as he is now, and Chen Dadu was also working under other generals, even if he was bullied, Li Zicheng could only stare dryly. Later, in the past two years, Li Zicheng's power has grown, and his reputation as a general has also become loud, and he began to lead an army alone, so he asked Chen Dadu from under others. With Li Zicheng's care, Chen Dadu's life is naturally much better.

Li Zicheng also changed his name, from the belly of the belly to the degree of bearing.

Li Zicheng really cared about his old feelings and really wanted to promote him, but after a while, he also found that Chen Dadu was really not this material.

There was no way, Li Zicheng had no choice but to let him be his own guard, but in fact, it was not a real guard, it was just an ornament. After all, with his ability, if Li Zicheng used him as a personal guard, it is estimated that if he encounters an enemy, Li Zicheng will die faster. Chen Dadu didn't have to do anything in Su Ri, just led the idle errand and was left by Li Zicheng's side.

It's just that on this day, Chen Dadu was really tired of staying in the city, so he asked Li Zicheng for an envoy and took the hundred or so people under him out of the city to patrol. said that it was a patrol, but in fact, it was to let him distract. Chen Dadu sat on the horse and looked around, quite a little anxious and arrogant. It's just that his dignity falls in the eyes of others, but it's a little funny.

Chen Dadu is very tall, he is also very fat, his face is also very round, the whole person is round and fat, and he looks quite pleasing. In this way, if you let him wear a coat embroidered with money, and say that he is a rich man, then believe it. But if he is said to be a general who can fight, ride horses, and kill, few people will believe him. His body weighed only three hundred pounds, and he was panting from the old thin Mongolian horse under his crotch, and it seemed that it was very difficult to take a step.

Although Li Zicheng has the most elite cavalry in the entire Gao Yingxiang department, war horses are still a scarce resource in the righteous army, and it is natural to equip those strong generals with good horses, but the hundred or so people under Chen Dadu can be called the rare old, weak, sick and disabled under Li Zicheng.
