"I heard you say this, your father is a strong man." Chen Ke's lips curled up slightly, and a smile appeared fleeting. "Is your father asking you to come today, just to report to our mansion about the uprising?"

Han Duan looked at his toes and said stutteringly: "Actually... the king of the family ordered the boy to come to see the envoy because his family lacked weapons and wanted to borrow some weapons from the envoy..."

Chen Ke's face was calm, "I actually made up my mind to the government arsenal. I guess your family has no choice but to do anything, right? But do you know that all the weapons in the arsenal are fixed, and if you miss one, you will have to be poor, not to mention that your family needs a lot."

"A extraordinary move is done at an extraordinary time. If the weapons are gone, you can build them again. If the bandits break through the Han family, they will not be able to find someone to use those weapons in the future."

"Strange words! There are nearly 100,000 households in Kuaiji. Can't we find anyone else except your Han family?"

There are indeed hundreds of thousands of people in Kuaiji, but who would like to attack the thief for the government for free? Han Duan didn't want to say this thoroughly, for fear that Chen Ke would become angry and embarrassed, so he remained silent, but the meaning was clearly expressed: I have said it all, what should I do, you decide for yourself.

Sure enough, Chen Ke sat silently for a while, then asked, "How many weapons do you still need in your family?"

"One thousand swords and guns each, two hundred bows and shields each." Han Duan did not ask for a crossbow machine. This thing was highly controlled by the court, and even if Chen Ke was asked for, it would not be given. It would be better not to speak up.

But the number of weapons needed still made Chen Ke almost spit out the tea soup in his mouth. "You are so big. So many weapons are enough to form a new army. Not to mention that there is no arsenal, even if there is one, I can't give it to you."

"There are thousands of thieves. If my family only wants to protect themselves, a thousand people will be enough. But if we want to catch all the thieves in one place, we need at least three thousand people, and we also need the assistance of officers and soldiers."

Chen Ke said suspiciously: "The thieves are entrenched in the lake, with more soldiers and sufficient food. Just by your Han family, can you catch all the thieves in Jinghu in one go?"

"If it is in the water, it will not work, but if you lead it to the ashore, you will be 100% sure." Han Duan told Chen Ke again the strategy of luring the snake out of the cave, and finally said:

"The thief robbed the grain of grain, and there is no risk of shortage of grain. The boy intends to go to the thief's nest in person, burn his food and grass, and force him to go ashore, but before that, he still needs to help you."

Chen Ke also thought it was very feasible for Han Duan's plan. After pondering for a little, he said to Han Duan: "You are young and should not do this dangerous thing. Just choose the capable ones in the military department to do it."

When Han Duan heard this, he knew that Chen Ke had agreed to borrow weapons. He felt a little happy: "Thank you for your reminder, but I have already put my inner support among the thieves. With him on the island, there is not much danger to say."

Chen Ke heard that the Han family had an insider among the bandits, and thought it was done by the elders of the Han family, and then said, "You can go back and tell your elders, and say that our family is willing to help you two hundred swords and guns. If the matter is done, our family will report to the court and reward you again."

The reward afterwards is purely empty words, and not to mention whether this is a cake, even if there is a reward, it must be destined to come and get it.

He didn't even have enough weapons, so what should he use to fight against the bandits? Han Duan repeatedly begged, and Chen Ke added the number of swords and guns to five hundred each. As for the bow and shield, he didn't mention it.

Han Duan knew that he was afraid that the Han family would gain self-respect after destroying the bandits, so he thought of a compromise: "My family took one million yuan to rent these bows and shields. If the bandits were destroyed, they would return all the intact bows and shields to the arsenal. What do you think?"

Chen Ke didn't expect that Han Duan could not only relieve his hidden worries, but also solve the Han family's urgent needs. The most important thing was that he could get some benefits from it. I don't know how this little boy could think of such a successful strategy.

No wonder the Han family asked him to come to the government office to lobby.

However, Han Duan’s idea was different. This move seemed to be a bit of a loss, but it buried a trap.

He only said that he would return all the intact bow and shield, but after the battle, he would not have the final say on how much intact is left. He only needed to criticize half of it, and this deal would be a sure profit without losing.

"Since you are going to lead the thief to the ashore, the transport of weapons will be hidden. I will ask the officials of the kushi Cao to bandage the weapons later. You can come and transport them home tonight."

Chen Ke was willing to take out so many weapons. One reason was that he really couldn't think of a better way. Two, after knowing the situation of the Han family, he also believed that the Han family had made up their minds to go all out, so he also sent great hope for this matter.

After Han Duan leaned over to thank him, he made another request: "My family is in a rebellion and the thief is missing a title. Can the envoy give him a name?"

The righteousness and courage were just a name, and did not consume the money and food of the court. It was just a matter of one sentence for Chen Ke. Therefore, he nodded immediately and ordered someone to take paper and pen. After a moment of thinking, he wrote the four big words "Shanyin Yizhang" on the paper.

After writing, I picked it up and looked at it again. I was quite satisfied and signed it below: Wu Xing Chenke.

After drying, Han Duan respectfully took the big piece of paper over, rolled it up and held it in his hand, and then said goodbye to Chen Ke.

The issue of giving a name was just a small task for Chen Ke, but for Han Duan, it occupied the title of righteousness. Going back to make a flag and embroidering these stitches on it will definitely make the hearts of the military officials more stable.

After leaving the prefect's house, Han Duan was also happy. At this moment, the weapons finally came to an end. The next thing to consider is how to sneak into Gou Shentong's nest and set the fire.

This matter is easy or not, and it is not difficult to say it is difficult. The key is to see how much Han Qilang can play in it. Therefore, after returning to Kong's house, Han Duan first asked whether Han Qilang had been to the county town in the past two days.

Kong Chang still didn't know the situation of the Han family, but seeing that Han Duan was so urgent, he quickly asked the reason and realized that the Han family was about to fight. This was a bolt from the blue for him. No wonder his wife's brother was so anxious.

"Now I have met the Mansion Master, and he allowed me to revolt and fight against the bandits."

Han Duan handed the paper in his hand to Kong Chang, "and also borrowed me some swords, guns, bows and shields. My brother-in-law quickly wrote a letter and sent him home, asking his grandfather to send someone to transport weapons tonight."

After reading the title of Chen Ke, Kong Chang felt a little calmer. He calmed down and pondered: "With great righteousness and weapons, the most important thing is to recruit brave men as soon as possible. I will take my servants to Shitang to help tomorrow."

The brother-in-law wanted to do his part, so Han Duan naturally would not refuse, but he was not in a hurry to recruit brave men.

"I came back this time and brought more than 600 corpses. In addition, the staff of Lanzhu Mountain has exceeded 1,550. The stone pond is narrow and I am afraid that I can't accommodate more people."

"I have my own arrangements for the righteous and bravery. My brother-in-law quickly find someone who can trust to go to the lake to find Han Qilang."
