Chapter 78: annex Qingzhuang and meet Xun Yu again
"Ding, since Zhou Cang's loyalty to the host has been raised to the highest level, the host will be awarded an additional 1,000 adoration points."
snake?
Zhou Cang's loyalty reached full value so quickly?
Liu Hao was also drunk.
This was the first time he had met someone whose loyalty would automatically be full as soon as he surrendered.
Could it be that this is the legendary iron-headed and dumb-headed young man?
Please give me a dozen of such talents!
"My lord, Pei Yuanshao, the second leader on the mountain, is the brother of the last general. The last general is willing to go up the mountain and ask for his surrender."
Zhou Cang stood up and took the initiative to ask Ying to go to Funiu Mountain to persuade his old troops to surrender.
Liu Hao asked with concern: "General Zhou, if Pei Yuanshao is unwilling to surrender, don't break your skin. Then a group of thieves will swarm up and hurt General Zhou."
"Don't worry, my lord. Pei Yuanshao has been following me since the Yellow Turbans. The brothers in the village have also been following me for many years. I will tell them to surrender. It's a sure thing."
Zhou Cang was very moved, patted his chest and assured Liu Hao.
Funiu Mountain.
Pei Yuanshao was drinking wine with his brothers in the village.
"Damn, that's really weird. My eldest brother is extremely brave. Today he couldn't even withstand ten shots from that officer and general."
"Second leader, what should we do now? That man is so brave that no man can match him. He is not even a match for Brother Zhou. How can we defeat him?"
"Yes, Governor Liu has such fierce generals under his command, we are definitely no match for him!"
"They are a bunch of cowards, they are scared! Brother Zhou is still in their hands. After we have eaten and drank enough, we will immediately gather our troops and go to rescue him. We will catch him by surprise and we will succeed immediately!"
Pei Yuanshao poured a bowl of wine down his throat and slammed the bowl to the ground. The Funiu Mountain bandits in the Juyi Hall cheered.
In the corner, a young scribe was tied up and sitting on the ground. He shook his head and sneered: "Liu Zixuan is a hero in the world. He must have been prepared in advance. How could he be plotted by you, a bunch of scoundrels? Surrendering as soon as possible is the best way!"
"Damn it, what are you talking about? Are you looking for death?"
When Pei Yuanshao heard the sound, he became furious and was about to explode when a majestic voice came from the door: "Who is looking for death?"
I saw a strong man striding in at the door, who it was if it wasn't Zhou Cang!
"Brother...brother, I was about to raise my troops and go down the mountain to rob the camp to rescue you. Why did you...come back by yourself?"
The bandits were dumbfounded, and Pei Yuanshao also stared in disbelief as Zhou Cang strode in from the gate of the village.
"You bastard, how dare you have such thoughts!"
Zhou Cang was angry and angry, and slapped Pei Yuanshao, knocking him into a trap. All the thieves in the Juyi Hall were also confused.
Big boss...what are you doing?
Pei Yuanshao covered his face and said speechlessly: "Brother, I want to save you, why are you still beating me?"
"Yes, brother, after we finish drinking this meal, we will gather all our troops to attack the army and rescue you. Why did you come back by yourself?"
"Oh, brother, you almost made a big mistake!"
"My lord is a member of the royal family. He is extremely talented. Instead of investigating the background of a certain Yellow Turban, he awarded me the official position of captain. He has shown me a great kindness. If you go to rob the camp, I will have no choice but to die as an apology."
Zhou Cang raised his head and looked at Pei Yuanshao with disdain.
"Brother, don't..."
The bandits looked at each other in confusion. After all, Pei Yuanshao, the second-in-command, had some brains. He figured out Zhou Cang's purpose and asked cautiously, "Brother, you're not here to ask the brothers to surrender, are you?"
These two brothers did not do evil sincerely, but they were forced by the current situation.
Among the Three Kingdoms, two people also fell into the trap and became bandits. As a result, they were passed by by Guan Yu and adopted as loyal younger brothers.
"Nonsense, quickly take the brothers in the village, pack up the money and food, and follow me down the mountain to join the lord. From now on, the brothers will all be officers and soldiers. It is better to follow the lord than to become a bandit!"
Liu Hao was pacing at the foot of the mountain.
After waiting for half an hour, there was still no movement on the mountain.
Zhao Heiniu was restless and said anxiously: "Master, this guy has been gone for so long, is he gone forever? If I had known, I would have chopped him with a knife!"
"General Zhao, don't worry, I have confidence in Zhou Cang."
Liu Hao is full of confidence.
If these one hundred loyal men could all run away, then the sun would rise from the west.
"Lord, look, General Zhou is leading his people down!"
Hua Rong was able to cross the Yangtze River with a hundred steps, and his eyesight was really excellent. Even in the dark night, he actually saw the movement on the mountain.
Of course, Liu Hao did not hesitate to give in. His eyes lit up and he saw a fire dragon lighting up Funiu Mountain and stretching towards the bottom of the mountain.
Done!
Liu Hao clenched his fists with both hands and waved them hard!
"Congratulations, lord, for getting thousands of strong soldiers without any effort!"
Lin Chong was so excited that he clasped his fists in congratulations.
Liao Hua and other generals also congratulated him one after another.
In troubled times, the population is sparse and soldiers are hard to find!
This time, I gained thousands of talents for nothing.
As long as we train them well and cleanse their brains, in the near future, they will all be elite soldiers who can fight for Liu Hao in the world!
"Fortunately, the general has lived up to his command and convinced the brothers to surrender!"
"Pei Yuanshao, the guilty general, pays homage to the prefect of Yingchuan!"
Pei Yuanshao took off his clothes and was tied tightly by his brother Zhou Cang. He kicked him unceremoniously and fell to his knees with a miserable howl.
"Please get up quickly."
Liu Hao stepped forward and helped the two of them up. He looked at the young and strong people with great pleasure and was overjoyed.
Huh?
Wherever he glanced, he suddenly noticed a tall and thin scribe in the crowd. Why did his back look familiar?
Zhou Cang followed Liu Hao's gaze and spotted the scribe in the team of bandits escorting the baggage. He said sheepishly: "My lord, this is the meat ticket I caught at the foot of Funiu Mountain a few days ago. It seems to be an official from the imperial court." .”
Pei Yuanqing scratched his head and said with a smile: "Hey, brother, this gentleman just asked me to surrender..."
Where in life do we not meet each other!
This young scribe is none other than Xun Yu who resigned and returned home!
Xun Wenruo!
Today, not only did we annex thousands of young and capable soldiers, but we also gained a military advisor for free!
