Luoyang was not very far from Yanzhou, so Wang Wu and Jiang Gan soon arrived in Yanzhou and first went to Chenliu County to visit Zhou Cheng, the former Wei general there.

Zhou Cheng has been stationed in Chenliu County for several years, and under his control, although the economic situation of Chenliu County is still not good, on the whole, it can be regarded as stable, and the common people can be regarded as a happy army.

Outside the gate of the Zhou Mansion, Wang Wu and Jiang Gan understood their intentions and asked the subordinates of the Zhou Mansion to immediately go to inform Zhou Cheng.

The subordinates of the Zhou Mansion, seeing that the person who came was Zhou Cheng's old friend, hurriedly rushed into the direction of the main hall, and clenched their fists and reported: "General, there are two people outside the mansion who claim to be your friends, asking to see the general. ”

"Who are they, what are their names?" Zhou Cheng asked softly.

The subordinate replied: "General, they seem to be called Wang Wu and Jiang Gan. ”

When Zhou Cheng heard this, he was immediately surprised, Jiang Gan and Wang Wu were both former generals of the Wei State, and their positions and status were not below him, and now, these two of them have all taken refuge in Hua'an, what will they be looking for themselves at this time?

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Cheng suddenly realized that since Wang Wu and Jiang Gan had taken refuge in Hua'an, it was very likely that the purpose of his coming was to recruit himself and make himself subordinate to Hua'an.

Zhou Cheng has already done a bit of a good job as the emperor of the soil in Yanzhou, after all, the days when no one cares are unrestrained, and who doesn't want to live such a free and easy life? If he wants Zhou Cheng to take refuge with someone, is he really a little unwilling?

But. Wang Wu and Jiang Gan are their friends after all, and now that they have all joined Hua'an, with Hua'an's current strength, if they want to attack Yanzhou, the chance of victory is still very good. Therefore, although he was very reluctant to join Hua'an, since the two friends had come to visit him, he felt the need to meet him.

"Please, please." Zhou Cheng ordered loudly.

"Yes, General." The subordinate answered, immediately turned around and went to the outside of the gate, inviting Wang Wu and Jiang Gan to enter the main hall.

Soon, Wang Wu and Jiang Gan walked into Zhou Cheng's mansion. As soon as he walked to the door of the main hall, Zhou Cheng strode out of the lobby.

"Early this morning, the magpie was chattering in the yard, it turned out to be Brother Wang and Brother Jiang came to visit! Ha ha! Please. Zhou Cheng invited loudly.

"Brother Zhou, please." Jiang Gan and Wang Wu also said politely, and strode into the main hall.

After the guest and host sat down, Zhou Cheng looked at Wang Wu and Jiang Gan and asked loudly, "Brother Wang and Brother Jiang, you have come to visit with all your might." I don't know what it's about! After speaking, he motioned for his subordinates to serve tea.

Wang Wu first hugged his fists and said, "Brother Zhou." You and we have been old friends for many years, so I won't beat around the bush, this time, we are on the order of the King of the North, come to Yanzhou, and invite all of you brothers to join the command of the King of the North. Conspiracy. ”

"Yes, the North King values the brothers of Yanzhou very much, and specially let the two of us come here and invite you brothers to join the North King." Jiang Gan followed.

When Zhou Cheng heard this, he was still shocked. Although this was already expected by him, when he heard Wang Wu and Zhou Cheng say this, he still couldn't help but set off a ripple in his heart.

Attached to Hua'an, Zhou Cheng was naturally a little reluctant, after all, being the emperor of the soil in Yanzhou is a carefree life, no one can care, if he is attached to Hua'an, he must obey Hua'an's orders, and he will naturally be very uncomfortable.

But Wang Wu and Jiang Gan have been officially invited in person, Zhou Cheng only has more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and his strength is not very strong, so he does not dare to offend Wang Wu and Jiang Gan, he feels that he can't refuse directly, but he doesn't know how to answer euphemistically.

Seeing Zhou Cheng's very reluctant look, Wang Wu and Jiang Gan were both very unhappy in their hearts, they glanced at each other, and they both shook their heads secretly.

Wang Wu said loudly: "Now that the Northern King is the most powerful, he must have a bright future under the command of the Northern King, what else does Brother Zhou have to hesitate about?" ”

"Yes! Brother Zhou, since we have been attached to the King of the North, the King of the North treats the two of us like confidants, and there is no estrangement at all because the two of us are generals of the Wei State, the King of the North is so wise, what else does Brother Zhou have to hesitate about? Jiang Gan also followed suit.

Seeing Wang Wu and Jiang Gan saying Hua'an so well, Zhou Cheng couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, but he still felt that being the emperor of the soil and living a free and easy life was more comfortable and comfortable, so there was still some resistance in his heart.

Zhou Cheng looked at Wang Wu and Jiang Gan, and said: "Brother Wang, Brother Jiang don't know, the younger brother has been free and casual over the years, and has adapted to the life of the King of the Mountain, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to adapt to the life of being controlled by others, so it is not that the younger brother is unwilling to belong to the wise North King, but that people are scattered and hope for a free and easy life." ”

Obviously, in order to refuse Wang Wu and Jiang Gan's surrender, Zhou Cheng said what was in his heart, and he did not hide it in the slightest.

When Wang Wu and Jiang Gan heard this, they glanced at each other, and they could both feel that Zhou Cheng was telling the truth, as long as they were people, they all liked to live a free and easy life, since they could be the king of the mountain at ease, why should they be subordinates who obeyed the dispatch of others?

"It seems that Brother Zhou's mountain king is doing a good job! However, does Brother Zhou expect to be the king of the mountain for the rest of his life? Jiang Gan asked loudly.

"Yes, Brother Zhou's idea is really too naΓ―ve, at present, the world has not yet been unified, and the hundreds of thousands of troops of the North King will still pacify the Yan Kingdom and subdue the Jingzhou Army, so naturally he will not come to crusade against Brother Zhou, however, the North King is now training day and night, I believe that it will not take many years to destroy the Yan Kingdom and subdue the Jingzhou Army. Wang Wu said loudly.

Wang Wu's words were quite threatening, to the effect that he wanted to tell Zhou Cheng that if he didn't take this opportunity to join the North King, the North King would send troops to destroy him in the future, but he had a good grasp of the proportions of his speech, and it sounded like it was completely for Zhou Cheng's sake, and there was no coercion.

Listening to Wang Wu's words, Zhou Cheng suddenly became nervous, he felt that what Wang Wu said was not wrong at all, although at this time he could be the king of the mountain freely, but this is because it was a troubled time at this time, and the forces of all parties were relatively balanced, and once the world was unified, a mountain king like him would not have a good end.

Seeing that Zhou Cheng was already a little moved, Wang Wu continued: "Brother Zhou, the North King is not only eloquent, but also very concerned about the generals under his command, in Luoyang City, the North King has built more than 100 generals' mansions, if Brother Zhou is willing to take refuge in the North King, among the more than 100 generals' mansions, one is Brother Zhou's mansion, and the North King has long said in advance, as long as Brother Zhou is willing to attach, what conditions there are, even if it is acceptable to the North King." ”

When Zhou Cheng heard this, he was immediately even more moved, paused, and said: "Brother Wang, the soldiers and horses under the command of the younger brother have fought against the Yangzhou Army many times in the past few years, and the soldiers' equipment has many defects, and the military salary is often in short supply. ”

When Wang Wu heard this, he said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, these small problems are naturally easy to solve, and now, in the warehouse in Luoyang, there are still a lot of extra weapons?" Military salaries are not a problem, as long as the soldiers and horses under the command of Brother Zhou join the command of the Northern King, equipment and military salaries are not a problem, and all the soldiers are paid more than the original. ”

"Brother Zhou, not only is the treatment of the soldiers better than before, but also, there are a large number of reserve legions in the army of the Northern King, if Brother Zhou's subordinates lose some of their men and horses when they fight in the future, the Northern King will definitely supplement the soldiers and horses of the reserve army to Brother Zhou's army, so as to ensure that the number of soldiers and horses under Brother Zhou's command will never decrease, the Northern King treats him so well, is there anything for Brother Zhou to hesitate?" Jiang Gan also persuaded him.

When Zhou Cheng heard this, he was very happy in his heart, if it was really as Wang Wu and Jiang Gan said, then he would only have benefits and no harm when he joined Hua'an, and he naturally felt that it was a very cost-effective business.

After thinking about it carefully, Zhou Cheng made up his mind to belong to Hua'an, he looked at Wang Wu and Jiang Gan, and said loudly: "Brother Wang, Brother Jiang, since the North King is so virtuous, the younger brother is willing to belong to the North King, and let the North King send him in the future." ”

Seeing that Zhou Cheng finally agreed to join Hua'an, Wang Wu and Jiang Gan were very happy, so that their task had made a good start, and now that Zhou Cheng had been annexed, they believed that the remaining rebel generals would also be attached to Hua'an.

Jiang Gan looked at Zhou Cheng and said: "Brother Zhou, since you have been attached to the North King, then we are a family, right now, we have to go to persuade the rest of the brothers to join the North King, if Brother Zhou is willing to help, then our actions will definitely become very smooth, I don't know what Brother Zhou wants?" ”

"Yes! Brother Zhou, if the rest of the brothers learn that you have already joined the king of the north, most of them will agree to join the king of the north, so we will save a lot of money. Wang Wu also said.

Zhou Cheng nodded, and said loudly: "Brother Wang and Brother Jiang are really too different, now, I, Zhou Cheng, am also a general under the command of the Northern King, and I am a family with you, how can I, Zhou Cheng, refrain from such a trivial matter?" The two brothers are waiting, and I will write a letter to a few old brothers, asking them to join me in joining the king of the north and building a great cause. ”

"Okay, then there is Brother Lao Zhou." Wang Wu said happily.

Subsequently, Zhou Cheng asked his subordinates to bring the four treasures of the study, and in the main hall, in front of Wang Wu and Jiang Gan, he wrote a letter to Zhang Yu, Wei Tong and other generals, and asked them to join Hua'an's command.

After writing these letters, Zhou Cheng stamped his seal on them and handed them to Wang Wu and Jiang Gan.
