Chapter 35: The Surrender of Zhou Cang

Zhang Hao came back to his senses, and at this time, a cold light flashed.

He remembered Wang Liang's eyes and understood.

What kind of character is Guan Yu, he actually killed a bloody path in an instant, came to the head of the thief, and easily slashed to death.

"The thief Zhang Hao is dead, you wait to surrender quickly!"

The thief saw that Guan Yu was like a killing god sent by heaven to the world, as well as the head of Zhang Hao and Wang Liang rolling on the ground together. They were so frightened that they were about to scatter, and they fell to their knees.

"Kill God and spare your life! We are willing to surrender! ”

Guan Yu rode his horse slowly, with a leisurely but domineering face, and returned to Wen Han's side after the thieves. Wen Han looked as a matter of course: "Brother Yun Chang is really a hero!" ”

At this time, the thieves who were blocking the Black Wind Ride on the side of the mountain village also saw that Zhang Hao was killed by the red-faced man, and the thieves there had surrendered. Knowing that they could not resist, they quickly fell to their knees. After Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang put the soldiers and horses in order, they took the thieves who surrendered and walked towards Wenhan's team.

Zhou Cang saw Wen Han, although Wen Han was young, he often smiled on the battlefield, so free and easy, and had an atmosphere. Immediately walked in front of Wen Hanma and knelt down on one knee: "Surrender to Zhou Cang, Xie Wenya will save his life." Zhou Cang is not talented, and he is willing to write a tooth by his side, and he will be a great grace with a report. ”

"Hahaha. Hurry up, please get up, they are all a family, don't be polite. Zhou Cangru is familiar with these troops from Shuanglong Mountain, and this sorting thing will be handed over to you. Pei Yuan Shaoru helped me bring a fierce general, a great achievement, and I should write it down. However, you first helped the brothers of the Ru family to sort out the matter of surrendering troops, and also cleaned up the battlefield to see the number of casualties on our side. After a while, you will come with him to the village on the mountain, and I will have people set up a banquet to reward the meritorious people who have killed the thieves of Shuanglong Mountain this time. ”

Wen Han hurriedly dismounted, smiled, and helped Zhou Cang. Zhou Cang felt a feeling in his heart, and heard that Wen Han trusted him and asked him to organize and surrender his troops. The chaotic mind of the moment has become calm.

Wen Han arranged the handling of the surrender of the troops, and then led the people to the mountain village immediately. Originally, Wen Han led troops to sneak attack the mountain village, which was guarded by Wang Liang with two hundred thieves, and suddenly Wen Han led the troops to attack, Wang Liang was caught off guard and was cut off by Guan Yu with a knife. Therefore, this mountain village has not been damaged much, Wen Han saw that it was getting late, so he planned to rest in this cottage for one night.

Wen Han asked people to search the village and found that there were dozens of cattle and sheep, and a lot of wine, which could be used to set up a banquet. When the war was over and the soldiers and horses were tired for a day, Wen Han was open, and he was strict when marching and fighting, and forbidding soldiers to have fun. But once the war is over, the soldiers are allowed to go crazy and relax themselves.

The soldiers below had already started the banquet, but Wen Han, Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Li Qiang were sitting in the cottage hall, talking and laughing. They were all waiting for Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang to return before starting their banquet.

At this time, there was a noise outside the cottage door. It turned out that Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao had already sorted out the troops and were returning with them. When those soldiers saw a table and banquet set up around them, they were not envious. However, when I think of my identity, I don't dare to think too much.

Wen Han saw Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao from a distance, and hurriedly left his seat and ran out, followed by Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Li Qiang.

"Zhou Cang, have you counted the number of people?"

"Tell the general, I have finished counting. There were originally 1,000 people in the village under the mountain, and they were attacked by Zhang Hao and set fire to the village, but later Brother Pei helped in time and saved some people. In addition to the 120 people who were killed in battle and the 200 people who were burned to death, a total of 680 people were thrown in by the people of the village. As for the men and horses in the village, there were 2,000 people, and excluding the 480 who were killed in battle, there were 1,520 people in total. Taken together, there were 2,200 people. ”

"So many people?"

Wen Han frowned, every extra mouth is money, this time he sent troops to Shuanglong Mountain, Wen Han brought a thousand soldiers and horses, except for the five hundred elites borrowed from Yang Dian, the Black Wind Cavalry and the escort team belonged to Wen Han, there were five hundred people. Coupled with this surrender, Wen Han's men and horses immediately swelled to 2,700 people, nearly 3,000 mouths. The number of people is six times more than before, which means that Wen Han's income will be at least six times that to support them.

"Pei Yuanshao, after this battle, are there any dead or wounded in our army?"

"Tell Childe. Black Wind rode and was killed twenty and wounded thirty. The escort team and the five hundred elites of Xie County, led by Gongzi, because Gongzi fought two battles, both of which were to take the head of the thief first, and then the thief army surrendered. I have just cleaned the battlefield and found no casualties. ”

Pei Yuanshao's face was a little gloomy, Hei Fengqi was his family, and every time he died, it was like cutting a piece of meat on him. On the contrary, his record is much inferior to that of Wen Han.

Wen Han seemed to know Pei Yuanshao's thoughts: "Yuanshao, don't be discouraged. How can there be an immortal in this war? If you want to reduce casualties, you must train more on weekdays to strengthen their physique, and as a general, you must also benefit their minds and teach them skills. Otherwise, you are not worthy to be the leader of this Black Wind Rider.

Also, although I have an outstanding record today, it is all because of the peerless fierce general Brother Yun Chang that I can win the head of the thief among thousands of soldiers and horses. ”

"The last general understands, and the last general remembers the teachings of the childe!"

Pei Yuanshao secretly remembered what Wen Han said, and Zhou Cang next to him listened, and Wen Han's views on the responsibility of the generals were also admired in his heart.

"Alright. Zhou Cang, this thief from Shuanglong Mountain actually threw in, and he was my soldier. Ask first if anyone wants to leave, and if you want to leave, let them go. Those who are willing to stay will be members of my family from this day on. However, Zhou Cangru must ensure their loyalty to me. When you're done, let them sit down and have a drink. ”

Wen Han has something to say, in which he says 'loyalty to me', which represents a person, not the court. Although Zhou Cang was stupid, he still understood what he meant, and immediately took the order and retreated.

"Alright, the banquet is ready, you can go to the banquet quickly. I am here, waiting for Zhou Cang's reply. ”

Wen Han saw that it was not good for everyone to wait here, so he asked them to go to the banquet first. However, as soon as Wen Han spoke, everyone unanimously rejected it. The reasons for refusal are almost the same, they all mean the same thing: Thou art the head, and thou hast not yet sat at the table, so how can we be seated? This is not a loss of the most basic etiquette, it is a great rebellion.

Wen Han shook his head, as a time-traveler from later generations, he really didn't expect so many courtesies. However, Wen Han began to discuss with them the desirability and precautions of today's sneak attack on the mountain village and Pei Yuanshao's rescue of Zhou Cang with the Black Wind Ride.

Wen Han has developed the habit of summarizing everything afterwards and improving mistakes since he was a child. Because he was a spy at that time, and a spy would never allow himself to make mistakes, let alone make the same mistakes in a row.

The people talked about it, but they didn't know the time. Even when Zhou Cang came, he didn't know at all, and put Zhou Cang aside. Later, Wen Han was sharp-eyed and discovered Zhou Cang.

Zhou Cang saw Wen Han looking at him, and bent down to salute: "Tell Wen Ya General, I just told them what the Ya General meant." Some people are tired of this murderous life, and some people have left more than 400 people because of some connections. Others are loyal, I have tried, and for the time being there should be no problem. ”

Wen Han nodded, understanding that some of the relationships in Zhou Cang's mouth were referring to the problems to which they belonged. They may have heard that the person who followed him in the future was Wen Han himself, not the imperial court, so they had the intention of leaving. Wen Han doesn't care, in troubled times, he must ensure the loyalty of his men and horses. What's more, there are too many people, and he really can't afford to raise them.

"Hmm. I see. Zhou Cang, you will call me a son together with Yuan Shao in the future. Don't want the tooth general, the tooth will be called, too raw. Or are you not our family? ”

Wen Han's eyes were clear, sincere, and he smiled and quipped. The four words of the family smashed heavily on Zhou Cang's heart, and Wen Han had also said these four words before, but Zhou Cang thought it was a scene at that time.

But at this time, seeing Wen Han's look, he was sincere. Zhou Cang just invested, and he was originally afraid that Wen Han would be a little alienated from him, but he didn't expect to be so affectionate, and called Zhou Cang his family.

"How dare Zhou Cang be able to become a family member with his son. It's a blessing from my three lives! ”

Zhou Cang knelt down on one knee, and his nine-foot body couldn't help but tremble. I couldn't hold back the joy in my heart.

"Hahahaha. Ok, good, good! Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get into the table. Our family members drank three or five or six altars happily. Those who are not drunk today should be punished! ”

Wen Han laughed heartily and took the lead towards the banquet. Guan Yu, Xu Huang, Li Qiang, Zhou Cang, and Pei Yuanshao followed behind, all with smiles on their faces.

The people entered the banquet, and all of them took the meat in their big hands and gnawed and drank the wine. More like a bandit than a bandit, but at ease. Wen Han hooked shoulders with Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang for a while, and guessed with Li Qiang for a while, and he was a little drunk, and he forgot those etiquettes, which looked more like real family.

And Xu Huang and Guan Yu were fighting wine. It seems that Xu Huang lost in martial arts to Guan Yu and was not convinced, and wanted to get back face in the wine field.

As soon as the two of them drank it, it was like a cow drinking river water, and they didn't stop, and they drank several jars in succession.

Seeing this, Wen Han applauded loudly. On the wine, Wen Han remembered a poem. Catchy.

"You don't see, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, rushes to the sea and never returns.

You don't see it, Gao Tang Mingjing is sad and white-haired, and the morning is like green silk turning into snow at dusk.

Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon.

I am born to be useful, and my daughter will come back when I am gone.

Cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle for pleasure will require 300 cups of drink.

Guan Yunchang and Xu Gongming will enter the wine, and the cup will not stop.

A song with you, please listen to it for me.

The bells and drums are not expensive enough, but I hope that I will not wake up after being drunk for a long time.

The ancient sages were all lonely, and only the drinker left his name.

In the past, King Chen feasted peacefully, and fought wine for ten thousand years.

What is the owner's words, he has to sell the right gentleman.

Five-flowered horses, daughters and daughters, Hu'er will exchange for fine wine,

Sell eternal sorrow with you. ”

"Good poetry! A good sentence is born to be useful! Drink 300 cups! ”

Xu Huang's face was drunk and red, and he cheered loudly, and as soon as he finished speaking, he fell down, looking drunk.
