Wang Li, who was standing by, could clearly hear the conversation between the two, but there was no change in expression on his face, and he even started to laugh.
"Two uncles, Liu Yu is now the emperor. When my nephew came here this time, he said that as long as the uncle agrees to belong to his command, it is not a problem at all to be granted titles, houses, and towns. As for these money and things, it is not a problem at all. Now, even everyone under my uncle’s command is like this, they all have acres of land and property as rewards.”
Wang Li said this and suddenly looked at Wang Zhang.
"Fourth uncle, before my nephew came here, Liu Yu also said that if my uncle surrenders, you will eventually have someone with the title of marquis."
After hearing Wang Li's words, Wang Zhang was slightly surprised, but also a little happy.
"Is what you said true?"
When Wang Mi heard this, his face turned cold and he glared at Wang Zhang, but Wang Zhang was completely unaware of it.
"Uncle, of course what my nephew said is true," Wang Li said.
Wang Mi, however, had no patience anymore. He waved his hand and said.
"Okay, don't talk more about surrender. Don't mention it again. If it weren't for the fact that you are my brother's only bloodline, I would have beheaded you long ago in public."
Seeing Wang Mi so furious, no one dared to say anything.
"Haha, okay, brother, please calm down and don't mention the matter of surrender." Wang Zhang persuaded him quickly.
"My nephew also brought some things to honor his two uncles, but they are still on the way. When they arrive, I hope my uncles won't take it personally. They are all things he brought home and do not involve any official matters." Wang Li said in a tone Said humbly.
Wang Zhang heard this and immediately said happily.
"Yes, as long as it's not official business, I don't mind if I dislike my nephew."
After hearing this, Wang Mi felt unhappy, but he didn't say anything more.
In the following days, Wang Li stayed in Xiangcheng in the name of waiting for the carriages and horses behind.
Today, there are not many local residents in Xiangcheng. They are all refugees who followed Wang Mi.
As Wang Mi's nephew, Wang Li can travel freely in Xiang County. As long as it is not too important, he can basically come and go freely.
In addition, there were many people in Wang Mi's army from Donglai County who were already familiar with Wang Li. Under Wang Li's intentional friendship, the generals of Wang Mi's tribe in Xiang County quickly became interested in this Qingzhou Han. The envoys from the country became familiar with each other.
In particular, Wang Li spent a lot of money. All kinds of money, silks, treasures and other items were given to the generals on the pretext of the Ao Pu gambling game.
These people were naturally overjoyed and felt that Wang Li, the nephew general of the Qingzhou Han Kingdom, was a very good man.
Especially when they heard Wang Li say that the emperor of the Han Dynasty in Qingzhou valued them very much. Not only did Wang Mi, the general who led the army, have high officials and generous salaries, but also ordinary generals and brigade commanders like them. Each has its own rewards, including titles, official positions, land, mansions, beauties, etc.
Relatively speaking, the little money Wang Lichuo lost in Pu Boxi was only a drop in the bucket.
For Wang Mi's generals, the best result of following Wang Mi is to lead the family members to a place to settle down. As for becoming an official or a title, they have never thought about it.
Especially since they have followed Wang Mi to fight in the Central Plains for several years, and have never had a moment of peace. Now the emperor of Han Dynasty in Qingzhou is waiting for them such generous treatment, and all of them are already very excited.
"Alas, what a pity. My uncle is a loyal man, and he is an old friend of Liu Yuanhai, the great Chan of Bingzhou. However, he rejected the invitation of the Han Emperor of Qingzhou."
After everyone was moved, Wang Li took the opportunity to say.
After hearing Wang Li's words, all the generals who had been greatly moved in their hearts did not dare to speak any more.
Wang Mi is becoming more and more strict in governing the army. If someone says something dissatisfied and reaches Wang Mi's ears, the lightest punishment will be a slap with a military stick.
However, although everyone stopped talking, more and more dissatisfaction arose in their hearts.
Except for Wang Mi, who is an anti-human being who thrives on causing trouble in the world, any general who joins the army to cause chaos ultimately only wants a future for the people.
Today, the Qingzhou Han Kingdom is at its peak. In terms of momentum, it is not much worse than the Huns and Hu Han in Bingzhou. Even the Hu and Han foreign armies such as Wang Mi and Shi Le were defeated in battles. Following the Qingzhou Han Kingdom seems to have a better future. Some.
Wang Mi soon knew about Wang Li's jumping up and down in Xiang County.
After scolding Wang Li, he sent people to drive Wang Li out of Xiang County City overnight, and gave each of the military generals who were most familiar with Wang Li a meal with a military stick.
However, a few days later, Wang Li, who was driven away in disgrace, came again.
When Wang Li came to Xiang County this time, he brought a huge fleet with dozens of vehicles, full of salt, salty goods and other scarce necessities.
"Uncle, these are what Liu Yu asked his nephew to bring to you. Liu Yu also said that he and his uncle are neighbors in the same county, and his uncle has tens of thousands of Han soldiers and civilians. Some items were sent first to show his sincerity. Heart."
In front of Wang Mi, Wang Li almost never called Liu Yu the emperor or emperor, which made Wang Mi feel a little better.
"Hahaha, great. Now we are short of these things here. Now, if you want to buy these salt products, there is no place to buy them. Even if you want to rob them, you don't know where to go." Wang Zhang saw the shipment coming After receiving the supplies, he immediately danced with joy.
Wang Mi's army is stationed in Xiangcheng, which is far away from the sea. The nearby well salt land has long been destroyed and cannot be used. Today's necessities such as salt have simply become hard goods that are more useful than money and silk.
This time, Wang Mi only had dozens of carts of supplies transported by his men. As for Wang Li himself, he was quickly sent out of the country with gifts.
However, the scene of Wang Li's dozens of carts of supplies entering the city has long been left in the minds of Wang Mi's tribe.
Later, Wang Li repeatedly brought in various kinds of money, silk, salt and other items. Naturally, the so-called names were used by the Qingzhou Emperor to bribe Wang Mi.
Wang Mi had long followed his younger brother Wang Zhang's advice, and based on the principle of eating it with sugar coating and hitting it back with cannonballs, he would not refuse anything that Wang Li brought, but he would not refuse every offer of surrender that Wang Li brought. But they were all rejected.
When Wang Mi's subordinates saw this, they all admired Wang Mi's behavior at first. The emperor of Han Dynasty in Qingzhou seemed to be a heartless fool. The money and items in these batches were like meat buns. Beating a dog usually leads to no return, but you still don't learn the lesson.
However, as Wang Li came more and more often, many of Wang Mi's subordinates began to feel that the emperor of Qingzhou Han was simply too kind. In order to win over Wang Mi, he not only ignored batches of money and silk, but also ignored it. Even after being rejected over and over again, he didn't even feel the slightest bit angry.
In contrast, the Hun emperor of Bingzhou sent envoys over and over again to urge Wang Mi to lead his army north to participate in the siege of Zhao Gu in Luoyang.
"The Han emperor in Qingzhou really has the air of an elder."
"If you can serve under his command, even if you have great merit, you will definitely get a generous grant. How can you be like Emperor Hu'er of Bingzhou, who fought to the death for dozens of battles, and now he is not even a chicken feather?"
"Hey, it's useless to talk more. In the eyes of everyone in Bingzhou Tu, we are just private soldiers of General Wang. Even if we have any merit, it will be attributed to General Wang. Who will get it?"
Many of Wang Mi's subordinates were discussing quietly in private, and various dissatisfactions were quietly fermenting. The yearning for the Han Kingdom in Qingzhou seemed to be slowly and quietly rising.
Even some brave generals who felt that they had some merit began to boldly speak to Wang Mi, hoping that Wang Mi would accept the surrender of Qingzhou Han State and rebel against Hu and surrender to the Han Dynasty.
After Wang Mi heard this, he immediately became furious and wanted to behead these generals on the spot. If his brother Wang Zhang hadn't tried his best to dissuade him, saying that these people were all veteran generals of Donglai County, if he killed them again Now, there are not many trustworthy old subordinates in this army.
In the end, Wang Mi, who was still angry, took action himself and whipped these people hard before giving up.
As a result, Wang Mi became disgusted with Wang Li, and ordered his subordinates one after another that no one was allowed to interact with him anymore, otherwise he would be subject to military law.
However, Wang Li had already taken advantage of previous opportunities to have private contact with many generals in Wang Mi's army.
Although Wang Mi no longer allowed Wang Li to go to Xiangcheng, Wang Li could still come and go freely in the surrounding cities where his troops were stationed.
Soon, all kinds of scarce goods from the Han Kingdom in the east were shipped in a steady stream.
In particular, the generals under Wang Mi in Wuping, Yangxia, and Qiao counties had already regarded Wang Li as an honored guest.
This area was close to Suiyang and Yongqiu where the Han army was stationed. These generals even began to quietly test Wang Li, thinking of defecting to the Han army with their troops.
At the beginning, Wang Li followed Liu Yu's instructions and looked embarrassed, not wanting Wang Mi's followers to betray their master and abandon their kindness.
However, not long after arriving, the generals stationed in these places came to Suiyang City of Liang State in person and found Wang Li.
These Wang Mi's subordinates obviously came together by appointment.
As soon as they saw Wang Li, these people couldn't wait to talk.
"Brother Wang, we have just received the military order. General Wang wants us to lead the troops and carry the baggage to Xiangcheng to meet up," Yangxia guard general Cheng Tong said.
"Yes, the military order is very urgent this time. It seems that a big move is going to be made. If such a move is made, I am afraid that it will not be stable for another year and a half."
"It will take more than a year and a half. If we go to attack Zhao Gu who occupies Luoyang, then after defeating Zhao Gu, we may have to march into Guanzhong to attack Chang'an. I don't know if it will take three years or two years to finish. "
"Besides, by the end of the day, we still don't know where we will end up. I'm afraid this Yuzhou won't be able to come back."
The guards in Wuping, Qiao County and other places also spoke anxiously.
After hearing the words of these people, Wang Li immediately made another plan in his mind.
"Could it be that those generals came here for this reason?"
After these people heard Wang Li's words, they immediately said anxiously.
"Your Majesty, we are risking our lives to come here because we naturally want to abandon the darkness and turn to the light."
"Yes, there is no need for any titles or titles. As long as the emperor of Lu Zicheng can give us a living, that's enough."
"Yes, if I go to war again, I don't know if I will be alive again. I have really had enough of working for the barbarians. I just want to be buried in Qingzhou Township when I die. And Not to become a wandering ghost outside."
"As long as the Han troops in Suiyang and Yongqiu areas go to receive support, we can immediately change our banners after we return, and from now on we will serve the emperor of the Han Dynasty."
The words of these Wang Mi generals were all sincere, and they did not even care about their official position and treatment after surrender.
Wang Li knew that these people were from Qingzhou and Yanzhou. They were already tired of being second-class people in the Xiongnu and Han Dynasty. Once they had the opportunity to return to their hometown, they would definitely be eager to return to their hometown.
What's more, in Wang Li's many previous interactions, these people had a very generous and generous impression of the Han Dynasty in Qingzhou. If they abandoned Hu and joined the Han Dynasty, they would definitely be rewarded accordingly.
"This matter is really of great importance. I don't dare to give you a guarantee when I establish a person. I have to be in the position of minister to make a decision."
Hearing what Wang Li said, several people became anxious.
Wang Li has been very active recently, and he has the official position of being the leader of Yuzhou and also the leader of domestic history. They thought that Wang Li's words were very effective, but who knew that they would have to find another minister to make the decision? In that case, I don’t know how much time will be wasted just on the road.
If what they were doing was discovered by Wang Mi during this period, without the support of the Han army in Yongqiu and Suiyang, they would probably become losers.
"Haha, don't be anxious, everyone, the Lord is here in Suiyang City," Wang Li said with a smile.
Sure enough, just a moment later, a middle-aged man with extraordinary appearance walked in, escorted by several Han soldiers.
"You have abandoned the darkness for the light, and it is not far away to become your wife and your shadow son."
As soon as the middle-aged man came in, he spoke loudly to several Wang Mi's generals.
After he finished speaking, he smiled and said to a Han general beside him.
"The plan to take advantage of Wang Mi will be done soon."
Several Wang Mi's subordinates were all stunned for a while, wondering who this Han official who suddenly arrived was.
Wang Li stood up and stepped forward, stretched out his arms, and introduced to these people.
"Generals, this is my great Han servant, Duke Xi"
