"So that, if I deploy from Meucon to Plescop " "You'll bar the way." "That's all." Cadoudal called his four lieutenants, Chante-en-hiver, Monte-a-l'assaut, Fend-l'air, and La Giberne, to him, gave each of them fifty men, and each with his men disappeared like shadows in the heavy mist, giving the well-known hoot, as they vanished.
He was soon to know, for they had ridden five hours and a half and the day was breaking. Beyond the village of Tridon they turned across country; leaving Vannes to the left, they reached Trefleon. At Trefleon, Cadoudal, still followed by his major-general, Branche-d'Or, had found Monte-a-l'assaut and Chante-en-hiver.
"I, Moustache," replied a peasant, coming near. "Who commands on the left?" repeated the general. "I, Chante-en-hiver," replied another peasant, also approaching him. "How many men are with you, Moustache?" "One hundred." "How many men are with you, Chante-en-hiver?" "Fifty." "One hundred and fifty in all, then?" asked Georges. "Yes," replied the two Breton leaders.
On the road from Grandchamp to Plescop, a line of wagons were now visible, the tail of which was still hidden in the woods. This line was motionless; evidently some unforeseen obstacle had stopped it. In fact, about a quarter of a mile before the leading wagon they perceived the two hundred Chouans, under Monte-a-l'assaut, Chante-en-hiver, Fend-l'air, and Giberne, barring the way.
