Obviously, Hua An felt that Murong Jun would not risk going south, after all, in the previous stage of the battle, the losses suffered by the Yan army were very large, especially the consumption of national strength, it was difficult to recover in a short period of time, so even if Murong Jun had the intention of rebelling against Pu Jian's army, it could not be regarded as a sign of going south, but even if the Yan army did not show signs of going south, it was also essential to prepare for the direction of Yan Guo.

"Your Majesty, Murong Ke is ready to plot against Pu Jian, but Pu Jian took the initiative to tell us about this matter, does this mean that Pu Jian is loyal to us, and he will not belong to Yan Kingdom." Wang San said softly.

"Pu Jian once attacked Yecheng, this kind of person must not be completely trusted." Zhuge Xiong objected loudly.

Hua An thought for a while, and said: "Pu Jian is a very talented and ambitious person, but the luck is not good, and the strength of the soldiers and horses under his command is too weak to stand up as a king, so Pu Jian should not be loyal to us, and at the same time, he will not follow Yan Guo and find a way to survive between us and Yan Guo, which is really difficult for him." ”

"Your Majesty, through the matter of Yan Guo's persuasion to surrender Pu Jian, it can be seen that Yan Guo's heart to go south is not dead, in addition to actively preparing for war, how should we prepare?" Deng Qiang said loudly.

Hua An thought for a while, and said, "General Deng reminded me well!" In addition to preparing for war, we should also make more adequate preparations, at the moment Yanzhou and Qingzhou are rebels, and the Yangzhou army has repeatedly conquered, not only failed to destroy these rebels, but has been defeated every time. This king feels that these rebels are very objective forces, and if they can be taken under their command, they will definitely greatly enhance our strength, and when the time comes, even if the Jingzhou army and the Yan army come together. Nor is it an opponent of our army. ”

"What the king said is that there are more than ten rebel armies in Qing and Yan Prefectures, and the total strength should not be less than 200,000, if all these rebels can be recovered, the strength of our army can indeed be greatly enhanced!" Wang San said excitedly.

Hua An smiled and said, "It won't be an easy thing to bring all the rebels in Qing and Yan Prefecture under your command!" After all, there are more than a dozen of these rebels, and each of them has a different origin and purpose. What they think in their hearts, this king can't figure it out! ”

"Wang, as far as the last general knows, these rebels are mainly divided into two forces, one is the original Zhao army dominated by Yao Xiang, and the other is the soldiers and horses of the original Wei represented by Zhang Yu, Wei Tong and others, and now, a force led by Yao Xiang occupies Qingzhou. There were more than 80,000 soldiers, and the soldiers and horses of the former Wei State, represented by Zhang Yu and Wei Tong, occupied Yanzhou. There are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, the two sides are separated by Mount Tai, and the well water does not violate the river water, and jointly resist the attack of the Yangzhou Legion. Yangzhou's Yin Thorn Shi was almost deposed. A general clenched his fists and reported.

When Deng Qiang heard this, he said disdainfully: "What if the rebels have 200,000 soldiers and horses? The repeated defeats of the Yangzhou Army are the incompetence of its main generals, and if it is replaced by our army, it will only take a few years, and Qingzhou and Yanzhou will be completely pacified. ”

Apparently. Deng Qiang felt that the repeated combat readiness of the Yangzhou Legion was not because the rebels had 200,000 troops and were too strong, but because Yin Hao, the chief general of the Yangzhou Legion, was too incompetent to lead.

Hua An nodded slightly, looked at Wang Wu and Jiang Gan beside him, and said: "General Wang, General Jiang, you were all generals of Wei before, and Zhang Yu, Zhou Cheng, Wei Tong, Le Hong and several others should be old acquaintances!" ”

"Back to the king, we are indeed in the same dynasty with Zhang Yu, Wei Tong and others, and the relationship between them is not bad." Jiang Gan first clenched his fists and said.

"The king asked like this, do you want to send us a task?" Wang Wu had a hunch that Hua'an seemed to have a task to hand over to them.

Hua An smiled and nodded, and said, "That's right, this king does have a task to hand over to you, but I don't know what conditions you need?" ”

"Does the king want us to persuade Zhang Yu, Wei Tong and others to surrender?" Wang Wu asked softly.

Hua An nodded, acquiescing.

When Jiang Gan heard this, he hugged his fists and said: "Wang, the last general and General Wang have not been in contact with Zhang Yu, Wei Tong and others for many years, and the relationship between them is relatively unfamiliar, besides, at present, these people have been fighting with the Yangzhou Army all the year round, and they are already the rebel generals of the Great Jin, and at this time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to succeed when I go to recruit them!" ”

Wang Wu also hurriedly said: "Yes! Zhang Yu, Wei Tong and others, in the most difficult time of the Great Wei State, abandoned the Great Wei State, and took refuge in the Great Jin Dynasty, and now, just because of disagreement with the Yin Thorn History of Yangzhou, they betrayed the Great Jin Dynasty and turned to become a rebel general. ”

"If you can't persuade them to surrender, then send a large army and conquer them all." Deng Qiang said loudly.

Hua An waved his hand, and said: "It is not possible to send troops to conquer, after all, our army is currently facing pressure from the north and south, if we send troops to recruit the rebels, the direction of Luoyang City will be empty, so once the Jingzhou army goes north, the consequences will be unimaginable, is there no better way to recruit the rebels?" ”

Obviously, in the face of threats from both the north and the south, Hua'an would not risk sending a large army to conquer the rebels in Qingzhou and Yangzhou to prevent the Jingzhou army from making a risky move, which would result in a complete loss.

"Your Majesty, if you can give Zhang Yu, Zhou Cheng and others enough benefits, maybe there is still a possibility of successful surrender." Seeing Hua An frowning and thinking hard, Jiang Gan said with a straight face.

Hua An was very happy when he heard this, and said loudly: "General Jiang, what kind of conditions do you think this king should offer in order to meet their requirements and make them subordinate to this king?" ”

Jiang Gan thought for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, the last general feels that if you want to give them enough benefits, official positions, money, status, security, freedom, etc., are all indispensable, so they have no worries, and I believe it is possible to belong to the king." ”

Hua An nodded, and said: "Yanzhou is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and its geographical location is extremely important, if it can recruit Zhang Yu, Wei Tong and others, no matter how much it costs, this king is willing to do it, and this matter will be entrusted to General Jiang and General Wang." ”

Jiang Gan and Wang Wu both hugged their fists and said: "The king can rest assured, the last general will definitely complete the mission." ”

"Okay, without further ado, the two generals will go back and prepare, and go to Yanzhou immediately tomorrow morning to persuade Zhang Yu, Wei Tong and other generals to surrender." Hua'an hoped to take Yanzhou as soon as possible, so he asked Jiang Gan and Wang Wu to set off early the next morning.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the last will obey." Jiang Gan and Wang Wu received the order loudly and immediately went to prepare.

After the two left, Hua An looked at the generals in the hall and said loudly: "Generals, do you think that the rebel generals in Yanzhou will submit to the king?" ”

"The king can rest assured, the last general feels that with the prestige of the king, the rebel generals in Yanzhou will definitely take the initiative to surrender, if they don't know how to lift, when our army solves the threat to the north and south, we must give them a good look." One of the generals said loudly.

"Your Majesty, as long as we give enough benefits to the rebel generals, I believe that they will definitely join us, and the king does not need to worry too much." Wang San said softly.

Hua An nodded with satisfaction, and said: "If the rebel generals in the direction of Yanzhou can be attached to this king, then this king not only has more than 100,000 elite troops, but also owns the land of Yanzhou, which is really the best." ”

"The last general believes in the ability of General Jiang and General Wang, and the rebel generals in the direction of Yanzhou will definitely submit to us, and the king's wish will definitely come true." Zhuge Xiong said loudly.

"Haha, I hope so!" Hua An said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, if all the rebel generals in the direction of Yanzhou belong to us, then what should we do next, whether to recruit the rebel generals in Qingzhou, the rebel generals in Qingzhou are headed by Yao Xiang, with more than 80,000 troops, which is a force to be reckoned with!" Zhuge Xiong asked loudly.

Hua An nodded and said: "The 80,000 rebels in Qingzhou are indeed a force to be reckoned with, but Yao Xiang has always been ambitious, and most of the 80,000 soldiers and horses in Qingzhou are soldiers of Liuyi, and they may not be willing to belong to this king!" However, it is not impossible to send people to recruit them, but you should not have too much hope, lest the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. ”

"Your Majesty, it's better to send a young general to recruit you." Wang San Zhengse said.

Obviously, Wang San was not at ease with Yao Xiang's Liuyi soldiers and horses, and was worried that they would not only be difficult to recruit, but would also detain the generals who surrendered, so he felt that he should send an insignificant young general to avoid too much loss.

Hua An nodded approvingly, and said with a straight face: "Wang San, the matter of recruiting Yao Xiang and others will be handed over to you, you can choose a suitable young general from the pro-guard army and go to Qingzhou!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the last will understand." Wang San hugged his fists and accepted the task.

Subsequently, Hua'an and his subordinates repeatedly imagined the affairs of Yanzhou and Qingzhou, and formulated a number of detailed countermeasures to prevent any unexpected situations.

Early in the morning of the second day, Jiang Gan and Wang Wu were under the protection of hundreds of guards and soldiers, and ran to the direction of Yanzhou in the east, this time they went to Yanzhou to recruit Zhang Yu, Wei Tong and others, the burden on both of them was very heavy, for this reason, they left Luoyang City early in the morning, and rode horses and galloped, to arrive in Yanzhou Zhucheng as much as possible, and surrendered to Zhang Yu, Zhou Cheng, Wei Tong, Le Hong, Li Ben and other rebel generals.

At the same time, the young general who was responsible for going to Qingzhou Zhucheng and recruiting Yao Xiang also left Luoyang City under the protection of dozens of personal guards, and ran towards Qingzhou as fast as possible.
