Chapter 168 Sincerity

"Oh, why aren't you upset that you're soliciting us and others? In my opinion, the general is strong and strong, and he should also be a master. Without using too much brain, Pei Yuanshao told his thoughts.

"Lord Ming?" However, Zhou Cang shook his head after hearing it and said, "Maybe it's a Ming Master." It's just that we used to be enemies, and now even the own people of the Montenegrin army don't believe in us, do you think that once you go there, you will get complete trust? What's the use of going that way if you don't get trusted, if you're just suspected? ”

Zhou Cang's explanation made Pei Yuanshao stunned after hearing it, and then nodded approvingly: "Yes, in this way, it really doesn't make sense." ”

Seeing that Pei Yuanshao also said the same, Zhou Cang also smiled bitterly. Why didn't he want to join the general's army? Well, it's better than being a bandit now. But why would people trust you, if they guard you everywhere and deal with you when they find an opportunity, wouldn't it be self-inflicted to surrender to the past?

"Come on, have a drink." Pei Yuanshao didn't want to look at his brother's uncomfortable appearance, so he raised the wine in the cup and said loudly.

"Yes, drink, get drunk and relieve a thousand sorrows." Zhou Cang also decided not to think about anything else, but said loudly with a wine glass.

It was only when the wine glass was brought up, and before it was completely poured into his mouth, a man in cloth clothes walked in at the entrance of the cave, and this person was one of Zhou Cang's cronies.

After coming to Zhou Cang, he wanted to say something. Instead, Zhou Cang waved his hand and said, "Just say something, I have nothing to hide from Brother Pei." ”

"Oh." After the henchman agreed, he said: "General, three people came from outside the mountain, saying that they are your old friends." ”

"Friends?" Hearing this title, Zhou Cang was stunned for a moment and then said: "The people in my village have all starved to death, where is there any old friend?" ”

"It's a legion." Looking at Zhou Cang's puzzled look, his henchmen had no choice but to explain further. At the same time, his eyes also paid attention to Pei Yuanshao on the side, after all, the less people know about such a confidential matter, the better.

Under observation, Pei Yuanshao's expression really twitched after hearing this, but he quickly calmed down. Obviously, he also knew about it.

In this way, the henchmen became emboldened and said: "General, there are a total of three people here, including General Tai Shici of the First Legion, and one who claims to be Guo Jia, the military advisor of the First Legion. ”

"Oh, Mr. Guo and General Taishi are here." Zhou Cang had already put down his wine glass, and after hearing who the person was, his eyes couldn't help but show a hint of hope, at least these two people are very important figures in the hands of the general, and their ability to appear here shows that they still attach enough importance to themselves.

"Yes, it's all here, so what's next, see it or not?" The henchman continued to ask.

"Now that they have come, it is good to hear what they have to say. Hehe, speaking of which, General Taishi has dealt with him, but Mr. Guo has not been fortunate enough to meet it. Zhou Cang nodded and agreed. Although he didn't have much hope, after all, it was a good deed for people to come, and it was not a gentleman's way to refuse guests. There were three people in total, and there was nothing to fear.

Seeing that Zhou Cang promised to see him, his henchmen said yes and went out.

At this time, outside the cave, Zhang Chao was observing the surrounding environment with Tai Shici and Xu Chu.

Surrounded by mountains, it is like a natural art of war, and people who do not have enough experience of living in the forest will soon be unable to distinguish between the east and the west.

However, Zhang Chao used to be in the Golden Triangle, that is, he shuttled through the dense forest every day, and he was still very experienced in this way. At this time, standing between the two of them, he looked at the four directions and said: "If the generals' nests of the Black Mountain Army are all in such an environment, it is really too difficult to use soldiers to exterminate them. ”

This is also true, there are dense forests everywhere, it is easy for people to get lost, and in such an environment, it is really the choice of the wise. This is also the reason why the Montenegrin army can always survive, relying on the environment given by nature, it is difficult for ordinary people to do what they do.

Tai Shi Ci and Xu Chu were not in the mood to think too much at this time. This time, the lord's life is under the protection of the two of them, and there must be no problem. Before coming, Guo Jiajun and Jia Xu both said that even if they died 10,000 times, they would also protect the lord's integrity, and the two of them suddenly felt huge pressure.

Especially Xu Chu, at this time, he felt that his throat and eyes were about to rise. Although outside the mountain, there are the most elite Black Mountain Army heavy cavalry waiting for orders at any time, but far water can't quench the thirst of the near. Once something happens here, if Zhang Chao has something, then how can he be sorry for the trust of others. When he was thinking about leaving the Netherworld City, Dian Wei repeatedly instructed that the safety of the lord would be handed over to him, and if there was nothing to do, he felt that the burden on his body was heavier.

is only Zhang Chao's leisurely appearance. After noticing the Black Mountain Army who was delivering the message out of the entrance of the cave, he smiled and said, "Here, look at it, we will see the Lord soon." ”

As he spoke, the henchman rushed over and looked at Zhang Chao and the others: "Three, please follow me in, but I still want to trouble you to bring out the weapon." ”

"It's not going to work." As soon as they heard that they were going to hand over their weapons, Xu Chu and Tai Shici both hurriedly shook their heads. Although it is not appropriate to bring any long weapons with this trip, but they are also wearing swords, this thing can also play a good role in killing the enemy when it is critical, this has to be handed over, what if something happens?

"Okay, we'll hand it over." It was still Zhang Chao with a smile on his face, and he took the lead in untying the long sword on his body and handed it to the person who came.

Zhang Chao said so, although Xu Chu and Tai Shici were still a little reluctant, they had no choice at this time, so they could only hand over the long sword on their bodies very reluctantly.

Zhang Chao will make it, and he is completely gambling.

This time, the sudden appearance without greeting was to prevent Zhou Cang from doing any tricks. If they suddenly appear here, the probability that the other party will be prepared will be greatly reduced, and even if this is the case, what if the sword is unsheathed? As long as you can convince the other party, you may retreat with your whole body, otherwise, you will be doomed, and at that time, even if you have three long swords, you will not be able to do anything.

Zhang Chao was going to fight against the water, so he handed over his weapon, and then followed behind the comer, walking towards the cave.

In the cave, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao had stopped drinking, and both of them looked at the entrance of the cave, waiting for the appearance of the general's envoy.

Zhang Chao was the first to enter the cave after the guide.

The cave is not dark as you would have imagined, but the roof of the cave is dewed, which allows light to shine in, so that you can see things in the cave clearly.

From afar, the first thing that caught Zhang Chao's eyes was the tall, black-faced and bearded Kansai Han Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao with a fierce face.

For these two people, Zhang Chao once heard Tai Shici describe it, yes, at a glance, they were seated. didn't expect the two of them to be there, which made Zhang Chao happy, and although it was more difficult to persuade the two of them at once, as long as the method was appropriate, it also saved Zhou Cang the excuse to go back and discuss with others.

After seeing the two of them, Zhang Chao strode forward. Behind him were the burly Xu Chu and the dazzling Tai Shici.

"Three of you walk slowly, just stand there." The henchman saw that Zhang Chao and the three of them wanted to stride over, and hurriedly reminded him.

Zhang Chao stood in place when he heard this, but his face did show a mocking look and said: "I have heard the names of Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, and I know that they are two heroes. I never thought that we were so cowardly, and the three of us even had their weapons confiscated, so what was so terrible? ”

When Zhang Chao said this, the henchman was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer, so he had to look at the main general Zhou Cang.

"Hahaha." Zhou Cang also laughed and said, "That's the case, the three of you will come over." ”

Zhou Cang is also a self-proclaimed heroic figure, and ordinary agitation methods will not play a role. But as Zhang Chao said, there were only three people who came, and none of them brought weapons, if this was the case, he was afraid, and the word hero was wasted.

Zhou Cang spoke, and his henchmen and soldiers stopped stopping him, allowing Zhang Chao and the three of them to start approaching forward.

Xu Chu and Tai Shici were very happy, as long as they were close enough, in the event of an emergency, they could control Zhou Cang and the others, so that they would have an extra capital to save their lives.

However, Zhang Chao did stop three steps away from Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao.

Such a distance made his words clear to the person on the other side, and there was no sense of danger because the distance was too close.

Zhang Chao took the initiative to stop, which made Zhou Cang breathe a sigh of relief. In any case, he had heard of Tai Shici's reputation, and if he was a pair, he thought that he would not be his opponent, and if the distance was too close, he would inevitably have to worry about his life. It's just that even if they took the initiative to stop, they must have no intention of making a move.

Zhang Chao had sincerity, and Zhou Cang also said to his henchmen: "Okay, you go out first." Remember to watch outside and not allow anyone to come in. ”

"Yes." The henchman agreed, and looked back at Zhang Chao and the three of them glared at each other, as if to say, you give me an honest face.

When there were only five people in the cave, Zhou Cang spoke first, "This is Mr. Guo Jia, I've been looking up for a long time." I just don't know what you're here for? ”

"Naturally, I persuaded you to abandon the darkness and turn to the light." Zhang Chao went straight to the point. He understands the difference between military generals and civil ministers.

For Wenchen, if he wants to make it effective, he needs more means, and even needs to constantly reason and lay out the facts. But for generals, as long as you show enough sincerity, there is a good chance that you can convince the other party.
