Chapter VIII Joining the Army(2/2)
Chen Yingliang and the helmetless knight also fell to the ground together, but fortunately the pursuers were far away and the danger had been eliminated, so not only did the helmetless knight and Chen Yingliang not scream in fear, they also lay on the ground and laughed together.
Fortunately, after laughing enough, Chen Yingliang took his legs out from under the horse, stood up with his hands on the ground, and once again helped the helmetless knight in heavy armor to his feet. It was only at this time that Chen Yingliang discovered that the helmetless knight was standing up.
The knight is a middle-aged man in his early forties. In addition to sweat and dirt, there is blood on his face. His Mingguang armor is also stained with blood, as if he had just gone through a fierce battle. In addition, Chen Yingliang is also careful.
It was discovered that the helmetless knight only had a scabbard on his body, but the sword was missing.
"Little brother, thank you very much for today. If it weren't for you, I would be dead today." The helmetless knight first thanked him and then asked: "By the way, I haven't asked you your name yet."
"I dare not say thank you for your hard work." Chen Yingliang pretended to be modest and replied: "Chen Yingliang, a young man, has made a big difference."
"It turns out to be Brother Chen." The helmetless knight nodded and asked curiously: "Brother Chen, why did you go to Bai Sima Ban just now? You didn't know there was a war there?"
"I know, I went to Bai Sima Ban just because I knew." Chen Yingliang answered truthfully: "The young man was recommended by others and wanted to go to Liaodong to join the army and serve the country. Unexpectedly, after arriving in Mianchi, he heard about the rebel Yang Xuangan's rebellion.
Xiaoqiang was so angry that he decided to join the army to counter the rebellion. When he found out that Bai Sima Ban was the front line of the battle, he planned to surrender to the army there. However, he unexpectedly happened to meet the general and you were in trouble, and luckily he helped the general."
"You went to Bai Sima Ban with the intention of surrendering to the army? Are you not afraid of death?" The helmetless knight's face was full of surprise.
"Serving the country and being loyal to the emperor, what should I fear?" Chen Yingliang replied shamelessly.
"Then who are you going to join?" the helmetless knight asked\u3

"Henan Zanzhi, Pei Hongce, Master Pei." Chen Yingliang continued to answer truthfully, "Xiao Sheng heard that he was the commander of the counter-rebellion army sent by the imperial court, so he wanted to join him, serve under him, and participate in the counter-insurgency war."
After that, Chen Yingliang had an idea, and hurriedly raised his hand to the helmetless knight and said: "Sir, Xiaosheng and Master Pei are strangers to each other, and they are from a humble background. Even if they go to seek refuge with him, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to receive him personally.
I wonder if you, sir, could be kind enough to introduce me to a young student?"
"No need to introduce me, I am Pei Hongce." The helmetless knight replied with a wry smile: "It's a pity that you came a step too late. My eight thousand army has been completely wiped out, and I am the only general left."
"Ah!" Chen Yingliang was really surprised this time, not that Pei Hongce's entire army was wiped out, but that he was so lucky that he could save the commander of the target army by joining the army!
After being shocked, Chen Yingliang quickly knelt down to Pei Hongce, saluted respectfully and said: "Young man Chen Yingliang, I have met Mr. Pei Zanzhi. I have no skills as a young man, but I only want to serve the imperial court. I am willing to serve you. I boldly beg you to take me in, and I will go through fire and water."
