I am a commoner, but I will lead the empress to unify the world

"Drink less."

Guan Shouchang gave Zhang Yide instructions while eating.

While eating, Guan Shouchang suddenly thought of something and said,

"When you go to the brothel tomorrow, remember to pay."

Zhang Yide was stunned when he heard this and then flew into a rage.

"When has Lao Zhang never given me money? Do I need you to remind me of this?"

"Oh? I remember that before I surrendered to the prince, when he was not yet a prince but only a captain, you were his subordinate.

As a result, because you didn't pay after having sex, you were reported to the Imperial Court, and it was the prince who personally rescued you. Is that true?"

"You're talking nonsense! You're slandering me! I'm suing you for slander! He's slandering me!"

Zhang Yide explained anxiously,

"That was when the prince's political enemies wanted to get rid of him, so they planned to get rid of me first. I gave him money and said I didn't pay. The prince went there and asked me to say I didn't pay, so that it wouldn't be prostitution. That family was sent to prison for extortion, but I really gave the money."

"Okay, okay, I know you paid, sit down and eat."

Guan Shouchang said while stroking his beard.

"I don't eat. I'm angry."

"Okay, then this big elbow is mine."

"That won't do. I, Old Zhang, love to eat pork elbows."

Zhang Yide grabbed the big elbow and started eating and drinking it, mouthfuls of meat and sips of wine.

Everyone laughed.

Guan Shouchang said while eating,

"Chen Qing, you don't need to worry about what's happening in the city tomorrow. Just take care of the defense, especially in the south of the city.

Xiao Su, you have to take care of the things in the city. You have to do a good job of taking inventory of the national treasury and the imperial palace, and confiscating the property of the powerful and wealthy.

I went to the surrendered army camp in the north of Guancheng and comforted them.

By the way, I have to go to the Bai family in person and invite Bai Wuan out.

We don’t know how many prisoners we captured this time or how many casualties we suffered.

After the statistics are made tomorrow, let Bai Wuan go to recruit them. Give Bai Wuan 100,000 people, and send the rest to our armies to supplement the troops.

Anyway, our Yan army is a mixed bag, with Yan people, Kun people, and Qi people, so a few Qin people won’t make a difference.”

Chen Qing nodded and said,

"Yes, the Qin people are really fierce in battle, but it's a pity that we failed to defeat them this time. Although they surrendered under orders, they may not be willing to serve us in their hearts, not to mention that we are the ones who destroyed their country.

Let Bai Wuan, the most famous general of the Qin Dynasty, take action and they will be able to return to their hearts. Old Guan, you should go there early tomorrow morning and bring that deputy general, Huan Qi, with you.

"Okay, then let's divide the work like this and each do our own thing.

Chen Qing is in charge of defense, Xiao Su is in charge of the city, I am in charge of the surrendered soldiers, and Lao Zhang is visiting prostitutes."

"Row."

"okay."

Zhang Yide: ???

After they finished their meal, they arranged for people to guard the palace, the emperor, and the concubines. A curfew had been imposed in the city, and anyone who dared to go out at night would be killed without mercy.

Afterwards, most of the troops rested, except for a few on duty and patrol.

When they go to bed, it is basically the Chou hour.

After sleeping for three or four hours, it was already dawn.

Guan Shouchang came out of the general's tent, went towards the surrendered soldiers, and found Huan Qi.

"Huan Qi, how many generals were captured alive at Yulei Pass last time?"

"There are about a dozen of them. Several of them are Sun Tai's confidants. They have all been escorted to Shengjing. There are still five or six generals left."

"Call everyone here and go to the Bai family with me."

Huan Qi was stunned when he heard this and asked,

"Are you going to try to persuade Marshal Bai to surrender?"

Guan Shouchang pointed to the huge Qin army camp and said,

"You, Marshal Bai, need to command so many troops, and you must have some trusted followers. You are the only ones left alive, so live well.

I know you hate me, but before, it was two armies fighting against each other, and I couldn't do anything about it.

Now, you can follow your Bai Shuai again, live well and make great achievements."

"Okay, I'll go call them. As long as Bai Shuai is willing to follow you, Dayan, we are willing too."

Huan Qi called all the generals over, and they all rode on horses and headed towards the Bai family under Huan Qi's guidance.

On the way, Guan Shouchang suddenly called a patrol team and said,

"Every one of you, send two Yan soldiers to guard the door of your house to prevent them from ransacking your house. The raids on the powerful and influential will begin today."

"it is good."

Several people told their homes to the Yan army and asked them to guard them, and then went to Bai Mansion with Guan Shouchang.

When they arrived at the gate of Bai Mansion, they saw that the seal of the Yan Army was still on the door, and there was also the seal of Lanling King on it.

The servant at the door said hurriedly,

"Everyone, this is the seal of your Great Yan Lanling King. Please do not copy our family's seal."

"We're not here to confiscate property, we're here to visit Marshal Bai. Quickly inform him that Guan Shouchang and Huan Qi are visiting."

"Good good."

The servant left quickly and came out quickly.

When he came out, Bai Wuan came out to greet him personally.

Bai Wuan saw Guan Shouchang and those familiar faces, and almost burst into tears, but he still bowed and said,

"Criminal General Bai Wuan, pays homage to General Guan."

Guan Shouchang also clasped his hands and said,

"Greetings, Marshal Bai. You don't have to act like a criminal. We've come a long way, Marshal Bai, wouldn't you like to invite us in for a cup of tea?"

"General Guan, please come in."

Bai Wuan made a gesture to invite him in, and Guan Shouchang strode in.

He left all the weapons and guards outside.

This broad-mindedness also made Bai Wuan sigh that he was worthy of being taught by Lanling King.

After entering the lobby, the Bai family's maid served tea.

Bai Wuan looked at Guan Shouchang and sighed,

"The last time I met General Guan was at the Guanshui Pavilion in Tianshui County. It's been over half a year since we last met, and things have really changed."

Guan Shouchang chuckled.

“Yes, we were enemies back then, but now, in the blink of an eye, we can sit together and drink tea.

But I hope General Bai won’t blame me for the battle at Yulei Pass.”

When Bai Wuan mentioned this matter, his heart ached.

Among the 500,000 people, 300,000 were his old subordinates, and now all of them were buried in the flood.

"I don't blame General Guan. When two armies fight, each serving its own master, so naturally they fight to win.

If I were replaced by Guan Shuai, I would only do things even more ruthlessly than Guan Shuai."

"I'm familiar with General Bai's reputation as a butcher. Whether it was the Battle of Yulei Pass or the Battle of Xianyang City, I was facing traitors like Sun Tai and Zheng Ping'an. If General Bai had been in command personally, I'd probably have been the one to fall."

"Master Guan is too modest. Every move you make is an unstoppable and sure-win strategy."

Guan Shouchang laughed, and then said seriously,

"I came to see General Bai just to ask, does he still remember the bet he made with the prince? These brothers have been refusing to surrender all along the way, just waiting for your words."

Bai Wuan lost the bet, and according to the agreement, he had to be loyal to Dayan.

Bai Wuan was also unambiguous. He immediately stood up and knelt on one knee towards Guan Shouchang and said,

"Bai Wuan, I am willing to serve Dayan!"
