Zulang signed up and entered. Sun Ce was moving his body in the tent. After he had enough energy, he was refreshed, refreshed, and even his voice was full of vitality. Seeing Zulang come in, he looked Zulang up and down and laughed.

"You have a bad face. Isn't it too hard?"

Zulang was indeed very tired. He had not rested for two days and one night, and he was so sleepy that his eyelids were fighting. He also wanted to rest like Sun Ce, but he was a surrendered general and could not help himself. How could he sleep like Sun Ce? He had figured it out. Sun Ce asked him to gather his old subordinates but did not do it well, deliberately making him unable to rest. If he really wanted to escape, he would not be able to run away.

"I am willing to serve the general. General, I have gathered more than 3,200 people and are setting up a camp outside. They have been hungry for two days. Please allocate some food so that they can eat hot food."

Sun Ce agreed immediately. "I have already arranged it. Just go to the baggage camp to lead. I have been tired for two days, have a good rest, so don't train for the time being."

"Thank you, General." Zulang hesitated for a moment and asked again: "Is the general going to attack Shicheng?"

Sun Ce nodded without hesitation. "You need to siege the city when attacking Stone City, but don't siege the city. Your siege skills are too bad, and there will be more casualties. Just help me surround me so that the people in the city can't come out."

Zulang was very embarrassed. "Then... were you distributing weapons? Many people lost their weapons."

Sun Ce looked at Zulang for a moment and laughed. He held Zulang's shoulder and patted him hard. "Okay, don't guess three or four. Since you surrender, even my subordinates will give you what you should give you, and the rest will depend on you to fight for yourself. If I don't want to keep you, I will cut you directly at that time. Why bother with this? I know that you are used to being a general and are unwilling to be restrained. If you really want to leave, I won't stop you, as long as you promise me two things."

"Which...two?"

"First, I swear not to be enemies with me in the future, so I hide when I see me. Second, I use money to redeem people and compensate me for my losses."

"More...less than one person?"

"One hundred thousand. It seems that your Danyang soldiers are recruiting for three thousand a month. I will collect you two years of commission, plus the weapons and equipment, which is about one hundred thousand, which should not be too expensive. Let me tell you the truth. I don't like Danyang soldiers very much. I have good personal abilities, but I have no organization or discipline, and I have a rebellious conscience. I have some advantages when I meet the same number of mobs. When I meet a real elite, you will not be able to use it at all. I hope you can make meritorious contributions and feel like I am catching the moon in the water."

Zulang's face was so hot that it seemed like he had been slapped twice. But when facing Sun Ce, he was speechless. He had just been defeated by Sun Ce, and it was a crushing defeat. It proved that Sun Ce's words were not bad at all. That's the case with the Danyang soldiers, who were known as the elite, were just like this. It is also a fact that he had encountered many betrayals himself and had a deep understanding.

But... this person speaks too directly and does not save face at all.

"Is there anything else?"

"Ah? Oh, I also want to ask if the person who surrendered to the general has a resettlement fee?"

"Well, there will be five thousand per person, which is equivalent to prepaying military pay for two months, but it must meet my requirements." Sun Ce chuckled: "I have high requirements. It would be good if you can select two thousand of your 20,000 subordinates. All the rest will be repatriated."

Zulang said oh, and did not ask again. He just heard Guo Jia and Yang Xiu say that there was this resettlement fee, and he thought it was an excuse for blackmail. Now Sun Ce confirmed in person that he no longer doubted it. He bowed his hand and left the tent, and went straight to the baggage camp. When he arrived at the baggage camp, he did not go directly to collect the food, but went to see Zu Xiang. After hearing his remarks, Zu Xiang nodded repeatedly.

"Master, why are you hesitating? I tell you, don't hesitate. It would be a pity to not join the army with such good ability. Choose two thousand people and apply to General Sun, and you can be a lieutenant immediately. It is not impossible for the general to make some contributions in the future. Maybe you can still be a marquis. Oh, what else do you want? Where can you find such a good opportunity?"

Zulang was moved. "I will discuss with Wang Qian and the others."

Wei Teng wanted to rush into Sun Ce's big tent, but before he could touch the tent, Dian Wei pressed it to the ground. He shouted and struggled desperately, but his strength was too small, and he couldn't even beat Dian Wei's finger, so he could only shout loudly.

"General Sun, General Sun..."

Sun Ce walked out and signaled Dian Wei to let go. Wei Teng got up and straightened Jinxianguan on his head, furious.

"Is the general so polite?"

Yang Xiu and Guo Jia rushed over, feeling ashamed. Sun Ce waved his hand and opened the door of the tent. "Mr. Wei, come in and talk?"

Wei Teng snorted, and entered the tent with his head held high and his chest raised. If it weren't for the mud on his face and the Confucian uniform was covered with dust, he could have been considered as majestic. When he walked into the tent, Sun Quan and Lu Yi stood up and bowed to salute.

"Fuchun's little son Sun Quan, I have met Mr. Wei."

"The back of Wuxian came to the mainland and met Mr. Wei."

Wei Teng stared at Lu Yi and sighed, and most of the anger dissipated. He knew who this child was, and he also felt that Chen Deng was not kind to expel Lu Kang. Lu Kang was a famous scholar in Wu County, Wu Hui and the famous scholars supported each other. Chen Deng did this, let alone the people of Lujiang could not agree with him.

Wei Teng returned the favor directly. Sun Quan, Lu Yilian said he did not dare.

Sun Ce saw it and smiled secretly. He had been beating so many famous scholars in this life, but he had the most fulfilling experience in dealing with Lu Kang. Originally, Wujun was the base camp of the Sun family, and rabbits didn't eat grass by their nests. They were just like life-and-death enemies with the people of Wujun, and they had a fundamentally stable talk. Compared with the aristocratic tribes in the Central Plains, the aristocratic tribes in Jiangdong were not strong and should be supported. Stop killing would not solve the problem.

Sun Ce asked Wei Teng to take his seat and let Guo Jia and Yang Xiu sit down. Wei Teng was very anxious and questioned Sun Ce while negotiating and preparing for the war, and asked for a lot of money, with no sincerity at all. Sun Ce listened quietly, and was not in a hurry. After Wei Teng finished speaking, he said slowly: "Sir, I want to ask you a question, can you?"

Wei Teng said angrily: "It's okay for the general to speak out."

"Where did you come from?"

Wei Teng hesitated for a moment. "Kuaiji."

"Are you coming from Kuaiji for Zhou Xin or for me?"

Wei Teng asked back: "Zhou Xin is a wise man in my hometown, and the general is about to be my county general. If you have a conflict, I will come to mediate. Shouldn't it be?"

The smile on Sun Ce's face gradually dissipated. "Mediation? Mr. seems to have made something wrong. I was ordered to take office, and Zhou Xin inexplicably blocked my way. Does he still have the court in his eyes? He is a ruthless minister! Mr. is a lobbyist for a ruthless minister, and does he still have the court in his eyes?"
