From refugee NPC to mythical general

Chapter 101 Chen Qun's Departure
719 skill points are enough for Zhuge Liang to distribute, but 7000 experience points are still a long way from the full amount of 20000.

Zhuge Liang finally had some free time to check his panel properties.

He first upgraded his spearmanship, swordsmanship, swordplay, and archery skills, spending four hundred points to upgrade all four skills to the fifth rate.

Now he has become very proficient in the use of these four weapons, and these four weapons will exert enormous power in his hands!
Zhuge Liang plans to spend 319 of the remaining 200 skill points to upgrade Chimang first.

On the north bank of the moat, Zhuge Liang summoned Chi Mang, and Chi Mang seemed very excited, as if he knew Zhuge Liang was going to feed him "food".

After 200 skill points were added to Chi Mang, huge waves suddenly rose in the river, and then Chi Mang rushed out of the river and flew above the moat for a while!
Looking closely, the Chimang had grown a little bit of wings!

……

"General, outside... ah, shit!"

Wang Da had just come to Zhuge Liang to report something when he saw the Chimang flying low above the river. Wang Da was almost frightened to the point of sitting down.

This guy...why did he start evolving again?

Ambassador Wang rubbed his eyes vigorously to make sure he was not seeing things. His eyeballs almost popped out of his head, he was so shocked that he could not say anything!
"what happened?"

Zhuge Liang pulled up Wang Da, who was so frightened that his face turned pale, and said, "It won't eat you, so why are you afraid?"

That's right, isn't this guy Zhuge Liang's pet? Why should I worry? I should be happy!

"oh oh."

Wang Da finally reacted and said to Zhuge Liang, "A group of people came from outside and said they wanted to join us."

"There are about fifty cavalrymen. We dare not let them in."

"Mr. Zhang and Mr. Guo have already gone to the city gate. They asked me to inform the general."

Zhuge Liang was suspicious for a moment, then said, "Go and have a look!"

When Zhuge Liang arrived at the top of the city wall, he saw more than fifty cavalrymen waiting outside.

The border troops deliberately let them in. If they were enemies, such a small group of troops would almost certainly never return.

If it were a large-scale enemy force, they would not be able to get close to the city wall of Daming Town. They would be stopped by the border troops and reported to Zhuge Liang in advance.

"General Zhuge, Chen Qun is here to surrender!"

Chen Qun bowed to Zhuge Liang on the city wall.

Zhang Zhao and Guo Tu glanced at Zhuge Liang and said, "General, be careful of fraud."

Ning Mengya said to Zhuge Liang: "He is a counselor, an eighth-rate counselor!"

Zhuge Liang nodded. He knew Chen Qun. He had seen him on the city wall when they were in Buzhou Town.

Zhuge Liang smiled and asked, "Sir, why did you come to me?"

Chen Qun said, "Didn't the general say before that good birds break trees to roost, and that's why I came to you for shelter?"

"This reason can't convince me." Zhuge Liang said.

He still remembered clearly what happened to Huang Gai last time. If the other party did not come to him sincerely, he would rather not have any need for this third-rate strategist.

Chen Qun pondered for a moment before saying, "The killing of General Huang has made me realize that Buzhou Town has lost its qualification to compete for hegemony. In other words, such a lord is not worthy of my service at all."

"That's why Chen planned to leave Buzhou Town, pretending to unite with Changsheng Dynasty and Xianhe Dynasty, but in fact he wanted to escape from Buzhou Town."

"Chen led more than 50 of his personal soldiers to rebel. Now he has nowhere to go, so he came to surrender to the general."

"If the general is willing to accept us and treat us equally, Chen will do his best to assist the general!" Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said, "Lower the drawbridge, open the city gate, and let them in!"

Zhang Zhao: "General, no!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "It's okay. There are only about fifty cavalrymen."

He knew what Zhang Zhao was worried about, but Zhuge Liang was not worried.

Not long after, Chen Qun led his soldiers into the city gate of Daming Town.

Zhuge Liang first asked Guo Tu to arrange the group of personal soldiers under Chen Qun, and then he personally brought Chen Qun to the conference room.

"Mr. Chen, why don't you tell me why you came to me?"

Chen Qun was silent for a moment before he spoke: "After General Huang's death, Buzhou Town has become disunited. I am ashamed of the lord's face. I don't want to serve such a lord for a moment!"

"General, don't worry that I will pretend to surrender like General Huang did, but actually divide the generals."

"If the general is worried about me, then before attacking Buzhou Town, I will just stay here quietly. When Buzhou Town is annexed by the general, I will no longer have any thoughts. Then the general will know whether I am sincere or not."

What Chen Qun said made sense. During this period of time, he could do nothing but stay in Daming Town and ask for blessings for his safety.

When Zhuge Liang conquered Buzhou Town and his lord was gone, what reason did Chen Qun have to betray Daming Town?

Zhuge Liang nodded and smiled, "Sir, when do you think we can attack?"

Chen Qun said: "Now!"

"Buzhou Town has only 150 soldiers. Although the lord is good at archery, he has no generals to use. Now there are only soldiers left. Xianhe Town and Changsheng Town are nothing to be afraid of."

"Their walls are very low now. The general only needs to lead about 500 people to conquer three towns in a row!"

"it is good!"

Zhuge Liang looked at Chen Qun and said, "I will take you with me, only you!"

Chen Qun immediately knew what Zhuge Liang wanted to do and asked, "General, do you trust me?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head: "I don't believe it, so I want you to give me a reason to believe you."

"General, do you want to attack Buzhou Town first, and use my prestige there to make the soldiers of Buzhou Town win without fighting? Do you want to take Buzhou Town first without spending a single soldier, and then surround Changsheng Town and Xianhe Town?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Sir, you are indeed smart. This is what I planned."

"We were about to send out troops before you came, but now that you are here, I want to minimize the losses of the army."

Chen Qun said without hesitation: "This is the best strategy. I wanted to suggest this, but I am afraid that the general will not trust me."

"But since the general is willing to take me out, I will go with you. I will definitely persuade the soldiers of Buzhou Town to surrender without a fight... but there is a prerequisite."

Zhuge Liang asked suspiciously, "What?"

Chen Qun said: "I need to bring two personal soldiers. These two personal soldiers have prestige in the military camp of Buzhou Town. They are General Huang's personal soldiers. With them, I believe the other side will be more likely to surrender."

Zhuge Liang nodded: "That's no problem!"

"Then go now and prove your loyalty to me!"

Chen Qun: “Okay!”

He was not angry. This was human nature. No one would trust a strategist from the enemy camp for no reason. If it were him, Chen Qun, he would probably do the same!
