Although the little leader who came in to inform him did not come out again for a long time, Wang Hun was not anxious at all. He was thinking about the steps to convince Zang Ba.

Wang Hun was not in a hurry, but Zhou Cang couldn't hold back. He sat on the horse's back, staring at the mansion gate intently, and kept muttering, "Strange, why haven't you come out yet? You haven't come out yet!"

Seeing Zhou Cang's disobedience, Wang Hun couldn't help laughing. He said to the other party, "Yuan Fu, don't be impatient. According to my estimate, Zang Ba may send someone out to invite us soon."

"After a stick of incense, I haven't seen that little leader come out yet." Zhou Cang asked Wang Hun with some confidence, "Mr. Wang, do you think Zang Ba doesn't want to see us?"

"I don't think this is possible." Wang Hun shook his head and said, "If he refused to see us, the little leader who went to inform us would have come out long ago and would not leave us here. I guess there was something wrong with them."

"There is something wrong inside?" Zhou Cang was confused by Wang Hun's statement. He asked in confusion, "Why did Mr. Wang say this?"

Wang Hun approached Zhou Cang and whispered to him, "Yuan Fu, before the lord sent us here, he thought Zang Ba had only one place in Mount Tai. But after he arrived here, he realized that he had occupied Kaiyang. Although the territory was large, the troops from different places gathered together like this, and there would inevitably be some contradictions."

Although Wang Hun had already said this, Zhou Cang still looked confused, "The contradictions are all his brothers, what conflicts will there be between them?"

"The little leader who led us just now is probably a small minion on Mount Tai." Seeing Zhou Cang nodding to show his affirmation, he continued to say, "But after he arrived in Kaiyang, he was a team leader with dozens of people. For a small minion, I think the original leaders at all levels of the parish must have held many positions in the Kaiyang Army. In this way, the original Kaiyang Army would feel that he was excluded, and it is inevitable that there will be conflicts between the two sides."

Fortunately, Zhou Cang was not too stupid. After Wang Hun's analysis, he immediately guessed the reason why the little leader had not come out after entering the government office. He asked Wang Hun tentatively, "Mr. Wang, do you think the little leader was troubled by the original Kaiyang team when he went in to report, so that he had not seen Leader Zang until now?"

"There is such a possibility." Wang Hun nodded, affirming Zhou Cang's statement. But seeing the other party's face showing a disappointed expression, he quickly added, "But don't worry, since the little leader has not come out yet, it proves that he has been thinking of ways to inform Zang Ba of our arrival. Be careful not to be impatient, I think we still have a chance to meet Zang Ba."

As he was talking, Wang Hun saw the little boss walking out with a happy look on his face. He quickly pointed his hand towards the door and said, "Yuan Fu, look quickly, isn't that little boss!"

The little leader walked to Zhou Cang, raised his head and said, "Captain Zhou, the big leader asked me to lead you in."

Zhou Cang and Wang Hun turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the entourage, and followed the little leader inside. When Zhou Cang and the little leader were walking side by side, they asked in a low voice, "Is anyone making things difficult for you just now?"

When the little leader heard Zhou Cang say this, he couldn't help but look surprised on his face. Although he didn't say anything, Zhou Cang already understood that Wang Hun's analysis was really reasonable, so he continued, "Is it a conflict between your brothers who came from Mount Tai and the local soldiers in Kaiyang?"

"Captain Zhou, you are not an outsider, so I won't hide it from you." The little leader leaned close to Zhou Cang's ear and said, "The big leader led us from Mount Tai to Kaiyang, and almost all of us were granted military positions. In this way, the local soldiers in Kaiyang were not happy and often made some small troubles on us. For example, I came to report to the big leader just now that the Du Bo of the Kaiyang Army guarding the door would not let me in. If I hadn't met a Qu Junhou who also came from a parody, the young man would have been waiting outside the door."

The little leader's words cast a shadow on Zhou Cang's heart. If the Taishan Mountain Village really had a conflict with the local soldiers in Kaiyang, even if Zang Ba was convinced, it might not be able to occupy the Kaiyang area.

Zang Ba may have been worried that Du Bo who was guarding the hall would deliberately make things difficult for the little leader, so he asked Junhou, who had just reported the news, to go to the door to pick up the envoy from Jizhou. Junhou waited at the door for a while, and saw the young leader coming towards him with a civil and military force, and guessing that it might be an envoy from Jizhou. He hurried forward and asked politely, "You dare to ask the two, but Jizhou envoys."

"That's right!" Wang Hun nodded and replied, "Please take us to see Leader Zang."

"Captain Zang has been waiting for the two of you for a long time." Junhou laughed and said, "Please come with me!"

Seeing that Junhou was about to take the two of them in, the little leader stopped tactfully and did not move forward. However, he did not leave, but stood outside the hall to see if Zang Ba would give him any reward later.

Junhou took Zhou Cang and Wang Hun into the main hall. Zang Ba recognized Zhou Cang with his helmet and armor at a glance, and quickly stood up and asked in surprise, "Yuan Fu, why are you?" According to his thoughts, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao were still making bandits on the mountain, so how could they appear as messengers from Jizhou? So this question was made.

"I've seen the big leader!" Zhou Cang replied after giving a gift to Zang Ba, "I have defected to the Marquis of Anyang, and now I am an unknown soldier from the Jizhou Army. Because the lord heard that the big leader had an old age, he ordered me to escort Mr. Wang to visit him."

"Mr. Wang?" Zang Ba instinctively turned his gaze to Wang Hun beside him, pointed his hand and asked Zhou Cang tentatively, "Yuanfu, is this Mr. Wang you are talking about?"

Before Zhou Cang could speak, Wang Hun stepped forward, bowed to Zang Ba, and said with a smile, "Greetings to the leader. I am the new prefect of Le'an County, Wang Hun, who is here to visit the leader with Yuan Fu at the order of the Marquis of Anyang!"

"Isn't Le'an County located in the Qingzhou territory?" Zang Ba couldn't help but wonder when he heard Wang Hun's report to his house, "What is the prefect of Qingzhou who does not manage civil affairs locally? Why did he come to Xuzhou to do it?"

"Teacher Zang didn't know anything. I used to be the Qianling Order. Because the general Taishi Ci of Anyang Marquis was a worthy person to recruit new recruits. I felt that Anyang Marquis was a worthy person, so I gave up my official position and followed Taishi Ci to lead my troops north." Wang Hun explained to Zang Ba, "I thanked the Marquis of Anyang, and I am the prefect of Le'an County. I will go to Qingzhou soon. However, before traveling, my lord ordered me to go here to lobby for the big leader, hoping that the big leader could see the situation clearly and submit to my Jizhou."

When Zang Ba and others learned that Wang Hun was here to persuade him to surrender, except for Sun Guan, Zang Ba and others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. However, Zang Ba still looked stern and asked, "I'm asking me to surrender to Jizhou. I wonder what kind of benefits will Anyang Hou give me?"

"My lord said that as long as the leader Zang is willing to surrender." Wang Hun was more confident in lobbying Zang Ba because he read Han Zhan's urgent letter. "Dongguan County and Langya Kingdom can be handed over to you to manage, and your troops under him will still be under your jurisdiction. At the same time, he will also ask the court to appoint you as the Marquis of Kaiyang."

The benefits Han Zhan gave made Zang Ba excited because after he surrendered to Jizhou, he could not only maintain his original territory and troops, but also have the opportunity to be a marquis. He originally wanted to bargain with Wang Hun, but after hearing these conditions offered by the other party, he found that he could not make any better requests.

Although Zang Ba had decided at this moment that he was willing to surrender to Jizhou, on the surface, some articles still need to be continued, so he looked at his subordinates and asked, "What do you think?"
