"Junhou, these people are the leaders of the rebels in the city." Bao Geng came in with several Gebei thieves escorted and saluted Chen Mo.

Chen Mo nodded and signaled Bao Geng to step aside and looked at the leaders. He had spent some time in the Taiping Cult and had also suppressed bandits in Qingzhou. He had some experience with bandits' methods of selecting leaders.

Although Jian Shuo's competition to win generals seems stupid to Chen Mo, among most thieves and bandits, this is a normal way to select talents. After all, it is not a place like Luoyang where talents are everywhere. Most of the people who fall into bandits are poor people. , naturally there are not many people who understand the art of war, so choosing a brave man to be the leader has become the best choice. Even if you can't lead the troops, you can at least lead people to kill forward, and your morale is still guaranteed.

But he didn't know why Jian Shuo came up with this method of selecting generals for bandits.

The Gebei bandit leaders in Qiuqiu City are naturally strong and strong, and they all carry a fierce aura. Even if they are captured at this moment, they look at Chen Mo with provocation and disdain.

"It will be difficult for you to interrogate me if you look at me like this." Chen Mo looked helplessly at Liu Ming, the Gebei bandit leader.

"Then let us go!" A leader grinned and said cheerfully: "If we meet on the battlefield in the future, I will spare your life!"

"This... the court has rules, and I have a better way." Chen Mo took the ring-shou knife from Dalang's hand, looked at the gangster who was talking seriously, and in the astonished eyes of the other person, he cut him open with one knife Throat, blood spurted all over.

"The reason why you have no fear of me..." Chen Mo licked the blood splattered at the corner of his mouth, kicked away the gangster holding the twitching throat with some disgust, frowned, and handed the knife back to Da Lang, with a look on his face. He said seriously: "Maybe it's my face that confuses you. Sometimes men who are too handsome always make people feel easy to talk to or soft-hearted, or they are really not afraid of death, such as this strong man."

"Sacrifice your life for righteousness!" In the horrified looks of the remaining five people, Chen Mo sighed: "I admire this kind of person very much, so it is also my respect to let him die a happy death. If you are affected by my face, Confused, I feel that one life is not enough.”

As he said that, Chen Mo picked up the table in the main hall of the government office, and in the horrified eyes of a leader, he smashed it on his head.

"I said..."

"Bang~"

"I said..."

"Bang~"

"I~"

"Bang..."

The main hall became silent, and the leader was beaten to death by Chen Mo with a table. Compared with the previous leader's group who simply had their necks wiped with a knife, it was a lot more satisfying.

"People always have some unhappiness accumulated in their hearts. If they cannot vent it in time, they will hurt themselves." Chen Mo looked at the other four people with a relaxed smile on his face: "There are many ways to vent. Fighting with others, women It's okay to kill people, hit people without reason, or sexually humiliate women. The teachings I have received since I was a child do not allow me to do this. As long as it is within my control and does not violate the law and morality, I do not think it is wrong. I have been searching in the city before and found that after these leaders occupied the city, they did not want to do things for the people, but oppressed good people. Good deeds and humiliating women can be considered as evil deeds. No matter how I treat you, I will not feel that I am wrong. "

"General, spare our lives. We were forced to do so, not voluntarily. We hope that the general will forgive us. We are willing to do anything for the general." The remaining four people knelt down and begged for mercy, kowtowing like garlic. Obviously, even among the desperadoes, Among them, there are not many people who are really not afraid of death.

"Don't worry." Chen Mo put down the desk, looked at the four of them and said with a smile: "I am not a murderous person. The fate of the two of them has been exhausted. I am punishing them on behalf of God. As for the fate of the four of you, it depends on you. Whether you can follow God's will or not, I believe that although your destiny is determined by God, if you are willing to do good, your destiny may not be unchangeable, Bao Geng."

"The general is here!" Bao Geng stepped forward and bowed.

"Take them down separately and find someone who can write to record them for them. I want them to know all the information about the Gebei thieves. The more detailed the better." Chen Mo looked at the four people whose heads were almost broken and said. He waved his hands and said: "Get up, everyone. The opportunity has been given to you. As for whether you can change your life, it depends on whether you can use it to atone for your sins."

"Don't worry, General. We will tell you what we know." The four leaders were overjoyed when they heard this. They even urged people to take them away without being escorted. They didn't have the same toughness as when they came in before.

After someone dragged the body away, Dalang looked at Chen Mo who was kneeling in the hall, rubbing his head with his hands and said, "Remember the past again?"

"I thought I had forgotten." Chen Mo nodded and said, "The people in the city reminded me of Aweng, Aduo, Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, Goucheng, many of them. These traitors, if we talk about ordinary thieves, The soldiers may have been forced by the situation, which is forgivable, but each of these leaders, how many of them do you think are innocent?"

"Even if you were innocent at the beginning, you are not innocent now. People will change." Dalang sat on the steps and said, "You seem to be a little out of control today. Is it because you think about the past?"

"No." Chen Mo leaned against the wall, looked at the busy figures outside, closed his eyes and said: "From the time I entered Luoyang, without the protection of my mentor and the guidance of my mother, others only thought that my journey was smooth, but every time I walked You need to think twice about every step. Many times, you have to do things you don’t want to do against your will. I’m only fourteen!”

Dalang nodded silently: "How about we go back? Back to Xuzhou, there is Mr. Ziyuan, and Dumb is also in Xuzhou, and there is your mother."

"No." Chen Mo shook his head: "Others have backers and families, but I don't. I have to rely on myself. It's easy to go back, but if I want to live a better life in this world, I will be bullied in the future if I don't fight. I don't want my descendants to struggle like me in the future! Without a backer, I am the mountain myself. Without a family, I will be the first head of this family. Even the biggest family came in this way. Others can do it, and I can do it even better."

"How did you vent before?" Dalang frowned.

"I have a woman." Chen Mo said as a matter of course: "Just control it and be moderate."

Dalang stood up silently and walked out the door.

"Where to go?" Chen Mo asked in confusion.

"Practicing martial arts, women are like scraping bones. If I don't practice to be stronger, I'm afraid I can't stand it." Dalang responded sullenly. He is sixteen years old, and it's time to find a woman.

...

The information Chen Mo wanted was delivered soon. The four leaders were obviously not as loyal as they thought. The scene of two companions being brutally killed for no reason became a nightmare. At first, they just wanted to explain some things, but in order to avoid Chen Mo finding fault, they finally told everything they knew, including the information Chen Mo wanted.

"That is to say, the Gepi bandits are gathering their forces to capture Qiao County in one fell swoop?" Bao Geng frowned and said, "General, are we going?"

"No, there are at least tens of thousands of Gepi bandits. What can we do with two hundred people? Send someone to deliver this letter to Xiang County immediately, and ask the general to inform the counties as soon as possible. We will take this opportunity to capture a few more counties and cut off the roots of the Gepi bandits before they react!"

Although the Gepi bandits are powerful, they have been operating for the longest time in the dozen or so counties in Runan. If these dozen counties can be eliminated and conquered, the food and logistics of the Gepi bandits will inevitably have problems. In this way, the attack and defense will be reversed. It would be better if we can stop the Gepi bandits from capturing Qiao County.

"Yes!" Bao Geng immediately agreed and ordered someone to deliver the letter.

"Get ready, gather the clothes of the Gepi bandits captives, and we will go to Gepi." Chen Mo stood up and said.

"General, according to the leaders of these bandits, there are at least a thousand people in Gepi. We only have this few troops. Even if they are tricked out of the city, it may be difficult for our troops to defeat the enemy!" Another garrison commander under Chen Mo frowned.

"So, we have to change a method. We all change into the clothes of the Gepi bandits, bring the four leaders, and let them lead us into the city!" Chen Mo stood up and said, "In addition, Bao Geng will be the main general this time."

"This..." Bao Geng was a little moved when he heard it, but his face was a little embarrassed: "Not good."

"You look like them. If you are the main general, they will not be able to detect it easily. Moreover, this time we are alone and deep in the city, and the main general is easy to be targeted by the enemy." Chen Mo looked at Bao Geng and said.

"General, this..." The little bit of excitement was instantly extinguished as if by a basin of cold water. Bao Geng looked at Chen Mo with an ugly face. It seems that he is a scapegoat this time?

"After defeating the bandits, you will be credited with the first merit. If you don't want to, let someone else take your place!" Chen Mo said indifferently.

"Marquis, I'll go." Dalang stepped forward and said after hearing this.

"You are a personal guard, do you know how to lead troops to fight?" Bao Geng quickly pushed Dalang away, looked at Chen Mo and gritted his teeth and said: "Marquis, I am not here for military merit, but you have been so kind to me, how can I let you put yourself in danger? Today is the time for Bao Geng to repay you for your kindness! Please let me replace you!"

"That's right." Chen Mo nodded with satisfaction and said: "Let's go immediately!"

"Yes!"

At that moment, everyone took off the clothes of the Gepi bandits on the armored boat, and took the four Gepi bandit leaders who surrendered. They did not stop until sunset and rushed to Gepi overnight. The next morning, they arrived at Gepi in a dusty state. They were discovered by the Gepi bandits guarding the city and quickly sent troops to intercept them.

"Captain Hu, I am Hou Er, do you still recognize me?" The four leaders were already frightened by Chen Mo's cruelty. Now surrounded by Chen Mo and his group, how could they dare to be presumptuous? They said hysterically to a familiar thief leader.

"Hou Er, why are you here?" The Hu leader was shocked when he saw Hou Er and hurried forward.

"The government troops suddenly came to Qinqiu, and the city... was broken!" Thinking of his future fate, Hou Er cried heartbroken.

Chief Hu thought he was sad that the city was broken, and comforted him: "Don't worry, now Chief He Yi is in Gepi, you follow me to see him, I will definitely take back Qinqiu and avenge you."
