Armed with a machete and a gun, armed with a system, they fled the famine.

Yu Hao couldn't help but twitch his lips, crossed his arms, and looked at him with disdain.

"Are you even a soldier? We've already sneaked into your house, how come you didn't notice anything?"

Such a person could be instantly killed by the enemy on the battlefield.

Zhao Yunchen knew he was just a supporting character, so he didn't say anything and just watched from the side.

Upon hearing Yu Hao's words, Zhao Longfei was furious.

He stiffened his neck and said, "Who said I didn't feel anything? I felt it as soon as you came in. It's just that I drank a lot of alcohol last night and was very sleepy, so my reaction was a little slow."

He would never admit that he slept like a log and didn't feel a thing.

However, he quickly realized something, and his bull-like eyes immediately glared at Yang Sanlang and the other two.

"Hey, who are you? Why are you barging into my house in the middle of the night?"

Yang Sanlang really wanted to go up and knock this man's head to see what kind of pig brain he had, and why his reaction time was so slow.

He squinted and said to Zhao Longfei with a half-smile, "You ask who we are? To tell you the truth, we're here specifically to take your life."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Longfei was so frightened that he immediately fell off the bed.

"Ah! What did you say? You're here to kill me? What... what have I done to you? I have no grudge against you, why do you want to kill me?"

Yang Sanlang continued in a sinister tone, "Because all you do is eat and sleep all day, you're just occupying a position without doing anything..."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Longfei's expression immediately became indescribable.

He admits that he does nothing but eat and sleep, but you can't just kill him for that, can you?

He did get his position as the garrison commander of Dingzhou based on his own abilities, after all.

He stammered for a long time, unable to say anything.

Yu Hao and Zhao Yunchen were trying hard to suppress their laughter, their bodies trembling as if they had Parkinson's disease.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Zhao Longfei's subordinate said from outside, "General, the governor has sent an urgent letter. Please reply as soon as possible."

Zhao Longfei's expression kept changing, his bull-like eyes sometimes looking at Yang Sanlang, and sometimes looking towards the doorway.

Yang Sanlang knew that it must have been Chen Anguo who wrote it for this person, so he lowered his eyes slightly and said to Zhao Longfei in a low voice, "General, please go ahead. I was just joking with you just now."

Zhao Longfei was so angry that his face turned red and his neck bulged. He got out of bed and quickly walked towards the door.

He took the letter from his subordinate and immediately began to read it quickly.

After reading the contents of the handwritten note, he was more shocked than furious.

Brother Chen actually chose to join General Dou; he wanted to rebel with General Dou!

The Queen Mother of the West.

Is there such a good thing?

跟！

We have to follow!

He beckoned to his subordinate and whispered quickly in his ear, "Go tell the messenger that I'm in charge of this. Go now."

"Yes, General."

His subordinate quickly bowed and withdrew.

Yang Sanlang, Yu Hao, and the other two men waited until their men had gone far away before coming out of the bedroom.

Zhao Longfei was no fool to have been appointed as the garrison commander of Dingzhou.

Judging from the behavior and tone of Yang Sanlang and his two companions, they must be related to General Dou.

So he asked Yang Sanlang directly, "Young man, were you sent by General Dou?"

To test whether he is truly sincere in his surrender.

Yang Sanlang narrowed his dark eyes slightly and nodded with a slight smile.

"Well, let's ask the general what he thinks. But it seems we don't need to ask anymore; the general should have already made his decision."

They could hear everything Zhao Longfei said to his men inside the room.

Zhao Longfei immediately smiled and said, "Yes, Brother Chen and I are brothers in arms. He advised me to follow General Dou. Since my brother said so, I will naturally listen to him. Besides, I have long admired the Dou family army. Now that I have the opportunity to follow General Dou, I am more than willing."

“Young brother, go back and tell your General Dou that with me and my elder brother here in Dingzhou, no one can cause any trouble.”

Yang Sanlang nodded slightly and said, "Good, with your words, General, my brother Dou will naturally look at you with new respect. Farewell, see you another day."

Zhao Longfei also clasped his hands in a fist and palm salute, "No problem, no problem."

So, Yang Sanlang, Yu Hao, and the other two quickly climbed over the wall and headed towards the Dingzhou government office.

The government office.

Chen Anguo had Dou Qingran and all his deputy generals invited to his study.

He relayed Zhao Longfei's reply to Dou Qingran and the others.

Upon hearing this, Dou Qingran felt a sense of relief and enlightenment.

He clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Good, General Zhao is a man of character, very good."

He had not expected that Dingzhou would be taken so easily.

However, this is for the best.

In this way, the common people would not be affected in any way, and Dingzhou would no longer have to continue to levy exorbitant taxes on the people in accordance with the decrees issued by the capital.

Dou Qingran immediately said to Chen Anguo, "Prefect Chen, since we have chosen to go against the imperial court, no matter what policies the court issues in the future, if they are unreasonable or bad for the people, you should simply do nothing."

Chen Anguo was naturally more than willing.

"Yes, General, rest assured, I will do as you say."

As the two were talking, Yang Sanlang and Yu Hao quietly returned.

Dou Qingran glanced at Yang Sanlang when he had a moment to spare, and Yang Sanlang secretly gave him a wink.

It means that Chen Anguo is a trustworthy person.

Dou Qingran immediately felt at ease.

Then, he spoke to Chen Anguo about attacking Suizhou.

Chen Anguo was confident he could persuade his second brother to surrender in Suizhou, but the garrison there was someone else, and he feared that persuading him would be difficult.

Chen Anguo said, "The garrison commander of Suizhou is named Cao Wenshan. He was transferred to Suizhou as a garrison commander five years ago. As far as I know, Cao Wenshan is a staunch royalist who is completely obedient to the new emperor and loyal to him. If you want to persuade him, General, it will probably not be easy."

Dou Qingran lowered her eyes slightly, pondering how to handle the matter.

Yang Sanlang said nonchalantly, "What's the big deal? If Cao Wenshan doesn't listen and insists on disobeying, we'll just kill him and secretly replace him with our own people. Isn't that perfect?"

Simple and crude, but useful.

However, this might lead to a fight.

After thinking it over, Dou Qingran realized that Yang Sanlang's method seemed to be the most effective. So he said to Chen Anguo, "Prefect Chen, go and write a letter to your second brother first. We'll wait for his news."

"As for Cao Wenshan's side, we can't just sit here and wait to die. We still have to continue south to Suizhou."

Chen Anguo immediately replied, "Alright, General, don't worry. I will write to my second brother tonight. You just need to attend to your own business."

Upon hearing this, Dou Qingran stood up and bid farewell to Chen Anguo.

"Yes, Governor Chen, please continue to serve as Governor of Dingzhou. Once I march south and conquer Suizhou, I will come back to drink and make merry with Governor Chen."
