The Confucian General who called himself Chen Qingzhi, after stating his intentions, waited calmly at the city gate tower.
Chen Gong, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and the other core members of the city had already gathered around Lu Fengnian.
"My lord, who is this Chen Qingzhi? I have never heard of it?"
"That's right, my lord. I saw that the white-robed army was neat and majestic. They must be a battle-hardened army!”
"My lord, this white-robed army is strange. We can't trust them easily. Please be on guard!”
Chen Gong and the other two spoke one after another, but Lu Fengnian waved his hand and smiled happily.
"The three of you don't have to worry. This person is a rare genius in the world!”
"Chen Qingzhi is my best friend. Before I led the Snowy Dragon Cavalry to Xu Prefecture, I begged him for a long time, but he was unwilling to enter the world and was tired of disputes.”
"This is an extraordinary expert with a broad mind and a military strategy!”
"Now that he's willing to lead his army to join me, we should quickly open the city to welcome him!”
After hearing Lu Fengnian's words, Chen Gong and the others let down their guard and quickly followed Lu Fengnian to the city gate to welcome Chen Qingzhi!
"So it's the lord's old friend!"
"To be called a rare talent by the lord, he must have something extraordinary!”
"We really want to see this person as soon as possible!”
Lu Fengnian smiled but did not say anything. He led the few of them to the south gate of Yi Jing.
The city gates opened, and Chen Qingzhi led seven thousand white-robed soldiers into the city slowly.
Lu Fengnian quickly greeted him with a smile.
"Ziyun made me wait!"
"You're finally willing to come out and help me. With you and the seven thousand white-robed soldiers behind me, I, Lu Fengnian, will have another arm!”
Chen Qingzhi smiled as he got off his horse. He walked to Lu Fengnian and bowed.
"Chen Qingzhi greets the lord!"
Lu Fengnian quickly went forward to help her up. He smiled and said,"Ziyun, no need for formalities!"
The 7,000 white-robed soldiers behind Chen Qingzhi also knelt down and bowed at the same time.
"Greetings, my lord!"
Lu Fengnian raised his hands and said,"Soldiers, please do not stand on ceremony!"”
All of this was naturally ordered by Lu Fengnian. He wanted Chen Qingzhi and him to put on a show for everyone to see, so that his appearance would be reasonable.
Chen Gong and the other two looked at the genius that Lu Fengnian had called a rare talent in the world and could not help but feel a little surprised.
Although this person was over middle-aged, he had a fair complexion and a refined demeanor.
However, Chen Gong and the others could tell that this person was weak and had never practiced martial arts.
Could such a person really be the commander of an army?
Chen Qingzhi smiled as he greeted Chen Gong and the other two.
"Chen Qingzhi greets the military counselor, General Zhang Liao, General Gao Shun!”
"Qingzhi and Fengnian are friends regardless of age. When Fengnian sent troops to rescue Lu Bu, I was unwilling to leave the mountain.”
"Recently, I learned that Feng Nian has conquered Youzhou. He has great ambitions and wants to take over the world!”
"Since that's the case, Qingzhi will serve the Youzhou Provincial Governor and help him fulfill his ambition!”
Chen Qingzhi's few words had already revealed too much information.
First, I am friends with your lord, regardless of age. Our relationship is not shallow, so you don't have to worry that I will harm your lord.
Second, I didn't agree to leave the mountain because Lu Feng went to save Lu Bu before the New Year. I, Chen Qingzhi, looked down on Lu Bu, so I wasn't willing.
Chen Gong and the others were well aware of Lu Bu's reputation, so they naturally did not blame Chen Qingzhi for speaking so bluntly.
"Thirdly, Lu Fengnian has started his own war and wants to take over the world. I, Chen Qingzhi, am here to help Lu Fengnian. Moreover, I have the ability to help him realize his great ambitions!
Good heavens, this weak fellow really dared to say it!
No matter what they thought, Chen Gong and the other two still returned the greeting respectfully.
Then, they followed Lu Fengnian to the City Lord's Mansion.
The group of five arrived at the City Lord's Mansion and sat down one by one. These five people were the core members of Lu Fengnian's group!
"Ziyun's talent is just right for him to be the commander of my three armies. General Zhang Liao's ability to command troops is not bad, he can be the deputy commander.”
"With the two generals here, our army's combat strength will definitely increase greatly!”
Everyone was shocked.
This Chen Qingzhi had just joined the army, and he directly made him the commander of the three armies. Wasn't this too childish?
Could it be because they brought 100,000 dans of grain?
Alright, 100,000 dans of grain was indeed an astonishing amount.
The resources that Chen Qingzhi and the others had brought along with the reserves in Youzhou were enough to last Lu Fengnian's army for two years!
However, he couldn't just use the position of Commander-in-chief of the three armies to repay him!
General Zhang Liao was good at commanding troops, and being the deputy commander of the three armies was something that everyone wanted.
As for this Chen Qingzhi, although Lu Fengnian had praised him as an extraordinary talent, no one had seen him before. Who knew if he only knew how to talk on paper?
Lu Fengnian naturally knew what everyone was thinking.
However, what he said next shocked everyone.
"The White Robe Army led by Ziyun consists of two thousand light cavalry and five thousand armored infantry.”
"I happen to have a group of 3,000 white-robed light cavalry in my hands.”
"I'll leave it to Commander Ziyun now!”
"5,000 light cavalry and 5,000 infantry, make up 10,000!”
"This troop is the strongest troop apart from my personal army, the Snow Dragon Knights!”
Chen Gong hesitated for a moment, but he braced himself and said,""My lord, this…"
However, before he could finish speaking, Lu Fengnian waved his hand and said,"Gongtai, don't worry, I know what to do!”
"Everyone will definitely be unhappy about me making Chen Ziyun the commander of the three armies.”
"But I knew that, yet I still dared to let him take this position. That means I have absolute confidence in him!”
"However, there's no proof. We still have to prove it with real battle results!”
"So, Ziyun, you should take your original troops, seven thousand white robed soldiers, and subdue the bandits in Zhuo County!”
Chen Qingzhi smiled and prepared to accept the order, but Zhang Liao had already stood up and exclaimed.
"What?"
"Take 7,000 men to deal with 50,000 bandits from Zhuo County?”
