"If the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them! The Flying Cicada Army is already dazzling enough. If we recruit all the soldiers, they will be tabooed by others and everything will be inconvenient!"
Wu Xin nodded, shook his head and responded. After a pause, he looked at Liu Shang and others and continued:
"If possible, we really don't want to participate in the decisive battle of Julu. No matter how you look at it, it will be a shocking and bloody battle. Who can guarantee that you will survive? How many of the elite soldiers you have worked so hard to pull up will survive in the end?
How much profit can we get in the end?”
Several questions were asked in succession, which made Zhang Mancheng and the Yellow Turban God General frown in deep thought.
In fact, Zhang Mancheng and others did not really want to participate in the decisive battle of Julu. As for that, it mainly depends on Wu Xin's character, behavior, etc.
Now I hear Wu Xin say it, although I am not very satisfied, but it is still reasonable. At least it shows that Wu Xin is quite good to his own people, including the soldiers!
Zhang He, the general of Tianfeng God, frowned and interjected: "It only costs 130,000. If we select 130,000 elites and join any force, they will not be worse than the Feichan Army, right? Even if they surrender to the imperial court, the treatment will not be the same.
It will be worse, but the treatment of a king and princes will still be the same!"
"Troubled times are coming! I believe that with King Zhang's wisdom, he will be able to see it! Then it depends on which force you are more optimistic about..."
Wu Xin responded with a smile, and then continued: "In recent years, the Han Dynasty has been a broken ship with a few nails. Whichever force takes the lead will be hit hard first. This is also the Yellow Turban storm, and the major forces dare not act rashly.
One of the main reasons for still obeying orders and suppressing them!"
Speaking of this, Wu Xin looked at Zhang Mancheng's face and was silent in thought. He looked at what Liu Shang, Zhang He and other generals wanted to say, so he waved his hand to interrupt and continued:
"I believe you have some understanding of my identity. It's not appropriate to go into details. However, the development of the Flying Cicada Army alone is enough to give you confidence. Now that you are here, you should have made a decision, right?"
"Master Wu is quite confident!"
Wu Xin made his words clear, but Liu Shang, Zhang He and other Yellow Turban generals could not say much. They all looked at Zhang Mancheng. Zhang Mancheng responded with a smile, paused, looked at Wu Xin with interest and asked:
"I am quite curious! If we surrender, what position will Emperor Li give me? How can we be trusted?"
"It's very simple. I started from scratch and got to where I am now. This is my biggest advantage. This is my capital and confidence!"
Wu Xin stood up and answered confidently without hesitation, and then continued: "Trust, I believe in my own vision, and even more in your character. Let's create brilliance together. Why betrayed? The reason for betrayal can only be that I have failed too much.
Can’t blame the others!”
Now that Zhang Mancheng has revealed his identity, Wu Xin no longer hides it, and frankly calls himself "the emperor"!
Zhang Mancheng and others smiled and looked at each other vaguely, with expressions of surprise, confusion, relief and warmth, etc., passing in a flash.
Life is based on trust. Who doesn’t want to be recognized and trusted?
After thinking for a while, Wu Xin quickly said: "My surname is Wu, so King Zhang Tian can be King Wu Cheng, God Tianfeng can be the Marquis Feng Wu, God Tian Bing can be the Marquis Bing Wu, and the rest of the generals... the causal positions are limited, so you can
We use spiritual stones, skills, treasures, power, etc. to make up for it, and our army will clearly distinguish rewards and punishments, and will never treat any of our own people badly!"
"I heard from Gong Huang that the young master doesn't want to recruit so many troops. In addition to being prone to suspicion, he also doesn't have a base, so it's hard to place them, right?"
There was a lot more smile on Zhang Mancheng's face and he seemed quite satisfied. However, he answered the question incorrectly and continued: "I would like to make a suggestion. Veterans are rare and it would be a pity to dismiss them like this. How about we dismiss them first and wait until they are summoned again?"
"Does King Zhang Tian have the confidence to control so many troops all the time?" Wu Xin thought for a while and asked.
What is not stated clearly is that Wu Xin's so-called trust actually mainly comes from "eternal blood", and the conduct, status and reputation of Zhang Mancheng and others are secondary.
"Of course, if you don't have self-confidence, how can you live up to the name of a king?"
Zhang Mancheng responded confidently, and then continued: "Of course, if the young master is afraid that the tail will be too big to be lost, and the guest will usurp the host, then I will not say anything!"
"Ha ha……"
Zhang Mancheng's obvious provocation made everyone have different thoughts, but Wu Xin laughed loudly, and then responded confidently and heroically:
"Don't be suspicious of those you employ, and don't be suspicious of those who are suspicious! Since I have decided to accept him, there will be no unreasonable suspicion. If King Zhang Tian can do more to win the hearts and minds of the army than I do, what if I abdicate in favor of someone more worthy?"
"ah?"
Except for Dugu Jialuo, Concubine Yin and other people who knew the inside story, including Zhang Mancheng, Xun Yu, Huang Yueying and others, they were all shocked!
Confident and democratic to the point, Li Huangwuxin can be regarded as a rare emperor of his generation.
Things are unpredictable!
I don’t know if I am really confident or if I think too highly of myself!
"Meet my lord..."
Wu Xin was so frank, Zhang Mancheng and others had a cryptic exchange, and then they readily bowed down and surrendered.
As Wu Xin said, now that they are here, they are actually planning to surrender. The previous exchanges only deepened mutual understanding and seemed less "casual", so they would be taken more seriously, etc.
Next…
Wu Xin officially granted him the title of Li Huang as a king and two princes, as well as a large number of spiritual stones, treasures, etc.
The reward, the most indispensable thing, is naturally "eternal blood". This is the key point.
However, if you truly surrender, everyone will be happy, and Wu Xin will do it without any psychological pressure!
After the reward is awarded, it is time to make specific arrangements.
Wucheng King Zhang Mancheng led a total of sixty-seven Yellow Turban generals to surrender.
Each Yellow Turban general is responsible for thirty thousand Yellow Turban soldiers.
Liu Shang, the Marquis of Bingwu, led 30,000 Yellow Turban elites and took refuge in the Songshan Mountains in the north, waiting for the call.
Zhang He, Marquis of Fengwu, took two Yellow Turban generals and a total of 90,000 Yellow Turban elites to take refuge in the Million Mountains in the west, waiting for the call.
The remaining forty-four Yellow Turban generals, each leading 30,000 soldiers, were scattered to various places, cities, mountains, etc., waiting for the call.
Finally, Zhang Mancheng selected 10,000 elites, 20,000 ordinary Yellow Turban soldiers, and the remaining 19 Yellow Turban generals to follow Fei Chan.
That night...
The angel of the imperial court found the Fei Cicada Army and formally announced the decree, ordering the Fei Cicada Army to march north at full speed to participate in the decisive battle of Julu!
The most unfortunate thing is...
In the imperial edict, the specific marching route of the Fei Chan Army was given, and he ordered to pay less attention to other matters, stop taking care of them, and rush at full speed.
A clear route is a taboo in marching, but can it resist the order?
Obviously there are still people who are hindering this, and they are afraid that the Feichan Army will act contrary to the situation.
There is also the possibility of conspiracy, but the decisive battle with Julu is imminent, so the possibility is very low, Shi Changshi is not so brainless.
the next day……
Dugu Jialuo officially declared the world in the name of the heroine Diao Chan (mainly reporting and communicating to the imperial court, Wancheng, etc.).
The former Yellow Turban King Zhang Mancheng admired and admired the power of the heroine. He was persuaded by the Fei Chan Army to surrender and dismissed his army. There is no need to say more details.
This is not the first time that the Yellow Turban Army has been persuaded to surrender, nor is it the highest leader of the Yellow Turban Army who has surrendered.
Following the Black Emperor Yang Feng and the Yan Emperor Zhang Yan, there is another Yellow Turban King who "returned his evil ways and returned to the righteous". This is the biggest talking point, and it also adds to the achievements of the Fei Chan Army!
