The sound of horse hooves seemed to come from nothingness, coming quietly from a distance.

The banner with the word "Dong" flying in the wind, Zhang Chen's 20,000 troops and Xu Rong's 10,000 troops, a total of 30,000 troops, marched on the road to Chang'an.

Li Meng led Xu Rong's 10,000 troops to open the way for the front army, while Zhang Chen led Lao Jiang to hold down the formation behind.

Half of Zhang Chen's current 20,000 troops are cavalry. This time Zhang Chen greatly expanded his troops from the Xiliang Army and the Hanzhong Army.

Hua Xiong and Li Jue were urgently recruited into Luoyang by Dong Zhuo and left first with 500 cavalry.

"The whole army is stationed on the spot! Let's set off from the Lingying camp!" Zhang Chen issued a military order.

The scout of Zhang Chen's headquarters during the Ling Camp used the training methods of the modern People's Liberation Army, and his abilities were beyond ordinary sergeants. He was a veteran under Zhang Chen.

"The spirit camp goes out for battle!" the ordering soldier shouted.

The 250 Qianlingying soldiers in the middle of the 20,000 people quickly entered the forest, and each of 500 people hid.

"There are only 500 men and horses left in the camp!" Lingying camp has only 500 men and horses. It is divided into two batches in the middle of the night. The rest time of Lingying camp and other sergeants are very different.

...

It's night, Zhang Chen is in charge of the stronghold.

"Oh? Lao Jiang, what's the matter?" Zhang Chen saw Lao Jiang walking in and put down the outline he was editing.

"Ziyue, the soldiers from the second unit of Lingying came back just now to report that several people were found in the woods ahead. Why don't you go and take a look?"

"Is there anyone in this barren mountain at this late hour? Come on, let's go take a look!"

Zhang Chen wanted to see if there were still people in a place like this at such a late hour.

Zhang Chen and Lao Jiang set off with a few followers.

In the woods, an old man wearing Taoist uniforms was walking with a few special subordinates.

"Master, we are going to Zhongnan Mountain soon." A young man who looked a little thin said to the Taoist.

"Well, there are still seven thousand eight hundred steps to Zhongnan Mountain." The Taoist replied.

If you look carefully, you will find that the man is walking at the front of the team, but his eyes are closed, so as not to bump into anything.

"Hey, Master, you are so serious. You can let me and my brother come together. Can't we get a few old books there?" said a very strong young man who was more than 1.9 meters tall.

The bulging muscles make people wonder if he is a bodybuilding coach from the 21st century like Zhang Chen and others.

"Second brother, how many times has the master told me that what we are going to get is a fairy book, not a shabby book. Otherwise, why would we call our brother, the eldest brother, the second brother and the second lady to learn the immortal way together?"

He is the younger brother of the macho man, but the man whose figure does not match the macho man at all said that this man has the air of a Confucian scholar and is very handsome.

"General, it's them." A soldier from Lingying led Zhang Chen and others to the edge and hid themselves.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Please step back first."

"Yes." The few Lingying soldiers left.

"Okay, come out." The Taoist followed the footsteps and said to Zhang Chen.

"Sure enough, he is not an ordinary person." Zhang Chen laughed at himself.

Even if you are pretending, you still need to find a place with people, right? What are you doing here at night when you have nothing to do?

"What's the point of not being a general?"

The Taoist asked, but his eyes still didn't open. Zhang Chen wondered if this guy was sleepwalking.

There was some movement among his disciples, especially the nearly two-meter-tall man who clenched the two axes in his hands and seemed to want to start a fight with Zhang Chen.

"I am Zhang Chen, Zhang Ziyue, the son-in-law of Grand Master Dong. If not this Taoist, why are you here so late at night?" Zhang Chen said humbly.

I don't know why, but the Taoist suddenly felt something. He opened his eyes, looked at Zhang Chen, and then laughed.

Zhang Chen and the others, as well as the Taoist's disciples, were all a little stupid.
