Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 58 Recruiting Generals ([-]rd update)

"Zhou Cang, I'm afraid this cottage of yours is already empty."

Liu Yu's plain words made Zhou Cang's body tremble, and a look of horror appeared in his eyes.However, Liu Yu didn't give him time to talk, he approached him again and looked at him intently, saying: "If my guess is right, Chief Pei should be out to work."

He bit the word "work" very hard, obviously not the original intention of work.Zhou Cang couldn't help breathing quickly, his mouth was a little dry, and he couldn't help asking loudly: "How do you know that there are traitors in the village?"

Haha, Liu Yu burst out laughing in his heart.Although he asked Liu Shou to inquire about it, but after all, the cottage is no better than the village, so how could he inquire so clearly.But when he tried this, Zhou Cang immediately leaked.So, how could he not be happy.

"Boss Zhou, I don't know if there are any other traitors in your village, but you can tell me if I know. Haha, I don't know if you are a traitor like this?" Seeing Zhou Cang's serious look, Liu Yu couldn't help but teased. .I have to say that Liu Yu's image of Zhou Cang is particularly good, not only because of what was said in the novel, but also because of his honest appearance.Therefore, he couldn't help joking with him.

However, Zhou Cang didn't realize it yet, instead he asked again in a daze: "I tell you, when did I tell you?"

"Haha, it was just now." Liu Yu laughed even more exaggeratedly this time.After hearing Liu Yu's words, Zhou Cang finally realized, his face flushed, and he said angrily: "If you want to kill, then kill, what kind of a hero is playing with me like this?"

"Leader Zhou, don't get me wrong, Yu definitely doesn't mean to play tricks." Seeing that Zhou Cang was really angry, Liu Yu quickly explained that he still wanted to recruit Zhou Cang.

"Yu definitely didn't mean to play tricks. He just lied to you before, so Yu said that Chief Zhou told me." In order to show that he was serious, Liu Yu hurriedly explained seriously.

But Zhou Cang is not stupid, he didn't believe him this time, he snorted coldly and said: "Hmph, what a treacherous person."

"Boss Zhou, you are an undefendable stronghold, I want to break through it easily." Liu Yu decided not to get entangled with Zhou Cang. After all, his situation is not safe, so Pei Yuanshao may come back at any time.Therefore, he stared at Zhou Cang sharply, and said in a deep voice.

Zhou Cang's complexion changed greatly when he heard this, and he said in the same deep voice: "What do you want, I advise you not to act recklessly, otherwise Chief Pei will never let you go when he comes back."

"Haha, if I captured the families of the Yellow Turban soldiers, would they dare to act rashly?" Liu Yu suddenly smiled arrogantly, and said loudly, "Besides, he is just a Yellow Turban bandit leader. Am I, Liu Yu, still afraid of him?"

Zhou Cang was silent. He knew what Liu Yu said was true. If the family members were captured, the Yellow Turban soldiers would definitely surrender immediately. It was beyond Pei Yuanshao's control.But he had nothing to say but silence, because there was nothing he could do.

Seeing that the effect of intimidating Zhou Cang had been achieved, Liu Yu couldn't help but relax, and said slowly: "Zhou Cang, I came from Xudu, and I know your name quite well. I thought you were in Wo Niu Mountain."

Wo Niu Mountain, the place where Zhou Cang was a bandit in Romance of the Three Kingdoms.Now he is not in Wo Niu Mountain, but he is indeed with Pei Yuanshao.

A trace of curiosity appeared on Zhou Cang's heavy face. He didn't know how this person knew him, whether he was very famous.He didn't speak, but looked at Liu Yu curiously, waiting for him to give himself an answer.

Sure enough, Liu Yu didn't keep him waiting, and said again: "Zhou Cang, courtesy name Yuanfu, from Xipingluo, Hui County, Henan Province. Yuanfu, I don't know if I'm right?"

"Hmph, not bad." Zhou Cang's black-faced and bearded face was still calm, and he snorted coldly.

Liu Yu didn't care about his attitude, smiled and continued: "Yuanfu, do you want to be a bandit for the rest of your life?"

Zhou Cang's expressionless face became ugly, he naturally didn't want to be a bandit for the rest of his life, and no one wanted to be a bandit for a lifetime.

Liu Yu's smile did not change, regardless of Zhou Cang's silence, he continued, "And even if you want to be a bandit for the rest of your life, can Pei Yuanshao really tolerate you?"

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms said that Zhao Yun killed Pei Yuanshao, but Zhou Cang didn't hate Zhao Yun at all.If the relationship between the two is good, or even as long as it is not bad, it is impossible for him to remain indifferent.From this point of view, it can only be that the two of them have deep conflicts.In addition, judging from Liu Shou's inquiries, it also shows that the relationship between the two of them is not good.

"Boss Pei, why can't you tolerate me?" Zhou Cang was silent for a long time again before he argued hoarsely.But I am afraid that he himself does not believe this excuse, let alone other people.

Liu Yu smiled lightly when he heard the words, and analyzed for him again: "Yuan Fu, don't you know whether Chief Pei can tolerate you? Not to mention the past, he will doubt if I let you go today."

"Let me go, what did you say?" Zhou Cang stared, and asked uncertainly, as if he had decided that he had heard it wrong.

Liu Yu is not going to turn a corner anymore, he has already said this, and it would be hypocritical to say more.Therefore, he looked directly at Zhou Cang, and said slowly and firmly: "Yuanfu's courage is comparable to that of a village. Let me tell you frankly, if you are willing to go with me, don't say that you let this person go." I can ignore Pei Yuanshao and let him gather in the mountains. How about Yuan Fu, is he willing to come down the mountain with me and do his job?"

Silent, Zhou Cang was silent again.It is impossible to say that he is not willing, after all, how could Liu Yu not be grateful for Liu Yu's dedication to him and his regard for him?It's just that he was a little hesitant. On the one hand, he naturally couldn't let go of the cottage, and on the other hand, he was confused about the future.He has been a bandit for so many years, can he really start over?

It's just that if I really want to waste time like this, am I really willing?Then Pei Yuanshao couldn't tolerate himself at all, besides, no one had ever valued himself so much?
"Cang is willing to go down the mountain with the general, just hope that the general will spare the whole family." Zhou Cang thought for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said with fists folded.His voice was loud and unwavering.

Liu Yu's eyes lit up, and then he burst out laughing.Then, he helped Zhou Cang up, still couldn't help but said happily: "Yuan Fu, I'm not a general, I'm just a little Sima."

"Although the young master is only a Sima, the young master is the young master of Liu Yanzhou." Liu Shou was clever and interjected at the perfect time.

Hearing what he said, Zhou Cang couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and then he scratched the back of his head honestly.But Liu Yu glanced at him appreciatively, and thought to himself: Monkey, you're doing well.

Zhou Cang surrendered, and everyone had to chat with each other.Everyone is a person with good martial arts skills, so it is natural to talk about it. For example, Xia Houlan, who Zhou Cang talked to, talked very little.However, Zhou Cang has always kept a cold face with Gao Meng. Although he admires Gao Meng's martial arts, he is very dissatisfied with his sneak attack on him.And with his kind nature, this dissatisfaction was naturally on his face.

After the conversation, Zhou Cang bid farewell to Liu Yu, saying that he was going back to the cottage to lie down.Liu Yu didn't doubt that he was there, and let him go back with a big wave of his hand, which moved Zhou Cang for a while.But Gao Meng ran out, asking if this old boy would never return, Ah Yu, you have to pay attention, maybe he will plot against you.

After listening to Gao Meng's words, Liu Yu laughed a few times, and then firmly said that he would not do it, which made Gao Meng retreat in embarrassment.

Sure enough, with Zhou Cang's temperament, it was impossible to feign surrender. He came back early the next morning, and brought back dozens of Yellow Turban soldiers.Liu Yu had no doubts, and waved his hand again to let them join the army.

Now that Zhou Cang has returned, Liu Yu naturally did not stay any longer, but immediately ordered the camp to be pulled out and continued to walk outside the mountain.But if he didn't know, Pei Yuanshao came after he left just before him.

As soon as he came back, he didn't find anything unusual, but he couldn't help but feel better because he didn't see Zhou Cang.But when the soldiers guarding the village reported the matter, he immediately became furious and raged in the lobby: "Damn Zhou Cang, I was right, sooner or later he will betray the cottage."

After the outburst of anger, Pei Yuanshao regained his composure.He stared at the soldier like a hawk, and asked sharply: "Quickly explain the matter in detail. If there are any mistakes, I will not spare you."

The soldier was horrified, sweating profusely, and nervously told the story.

After hearing this, Pei Yuanshao sneered, and roared angrily: "Zhou Cang, just 200 people defeated you? Okay, very good, I can't spare you. Come, gather soldiers, I want to find and kill them."

As he said that, he had already picked up the long knife that he had just put down, and was striding towards the hall.Afterwards, he led 1000 people out of the stronghold!
