Early the next morning, shortly after Huangfu Xiong's men arrived at Zhengzhou City to meet Zhao Wei, Hu Dehai brought his brothers to the outside of Zhengzhou City. Zhuge Xin rode alone to Zhao Wei's tent, not being polite with Zhao Wei.

"This matter is of great importance. I cannot make a decision so easily. Moreover, there is a disturbance in the Zhengzhou. These people are also the culprits. If they are allowed to become the guards of the city, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles in the future." Zhao Wei thought for a moment and said to Zhuge.

Zhuge Xin nodded and replied, "I thought so too. It's just that these people are too rude and impatient. If I can't comfort them, there might be trouble again. This time, the Prince has also sent someone to secretly contact me, telling me to take care of this matter with you. These bandits would be a great help to the King's Manor in the future. If they were not dealt with properly, it would affect the entire Green Forest Sect's trust in the Palace. I suppose you know why the King's Manor can walk so smoothly in the martial world.

Zhao Wei understood in his heart that this bandit group had to satisfy not only the imperial government, but the people of Green Forest as well. Otherwise, if the King's Mansion had any more things to do in the future, they would face not only the pressure from the imperial government, but also Green Forest's revenge.

"I will take care of this matter properly, don't worry." I have also heard of that Hu Dehai. He is not a great evildoer, it's just that his fate was not good when he was born. You can go back and let them rest for a while. I will report the situation to the prince and the imperial government, and at that time, the prince can also come up with a plan. " Zhao Wei said to Zhuge.

When Zhuge Xin heard Zhao Wei's reply, he felt slightly more at ease. He immediately turned around and left Zhao Wei's tent. He then mounted his horse and returned to Hu Dehai's place. He told Hu Dehai and the others to enter the city to rest and await the imperial court's orders.

Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed and immediately went into the city in groups of three or five.

Because the prefectural army had been annihilated, the current military camp was completely empty. However, all the goods and materials had been stolen by the people nearby, leaving only the empty room standing.

However, the ecstatic crowd paid no heed to this. Following the guidance of Zhao Wei's soldiers, Tian Qingshan and the others found a place to rest.

Not long after everyone clamored and entered the barracks, Huangfu Xiong brought a few commanders and rushed towards the source of the noise. When they saw Huangfu Xiong with their sharp eyes, they immediately recognized him. When the originally happy Hu Dehai and the others saw Huangfu Xiong, who had already taken the first step, their hearts skipped a beat.

Especially Hu Dehai. Although he and Huangfu Xiong were called the True State Duo Xiong, the two sides had always been at loggerheads. After all, there could only be one overlord in the Land of Han-Yang. The two sides had fought over this a few times. This was also why the people of the Peach Blossom Mountain were surrounded. Hu Dehai did not think of saving others, but instead brought people to rob them. After all, if the people of the Peach Blossom Mountain died, then they would die.

"Yo, isn't he a man from Tianshan Mountain?" Huangfu Xiong looked at Hu Dehai and the others as he said with a smile that was not a smile.

Hu Dehai rolled his eyes and didn't say anything as he walked past him. When he came, Zhuge Xin had told him that after entering the city, no one was allowed to come into conflict with others as to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Boss Hu, congratulations. From today onwards, you will be the vice-general of this prefecture." Huangfu Xiong said with a smile.

"Secondary..." Vice General? " When Hu Dehai heard these words, he was slightly surprised. He turned around, grabbed Huangfu Xiong's collar, and ferociously asked.

"What is it? Don't you know? "General Zhao has already promised me that from now on, the army general of the Zhengzhou will not be Huangfu Xiong anymore." After he finished speaking, Huangfu Xiong arrogantly raised his head.

"How outrageous, this surnamed Zhao actually lied to us?" Brother, speak! Should we f * ck him! " A petite man beside Hu Dehai said to him with a furious look in his eyes.

Hu Dehai was also very angry in his heart. He had originally thought that his position as the general was already in the grasp of victory, but he hadn't thought that there would be someone who would interfere in this matter.

"What's the rush?" When everyone heard this, they turned around and saw Zhuge Xin slowly pacing back and forth with a paper fan in hand.

"Since General Zhao has said to request for an explanation from the imperial government and for the imperial government to decide on the matter, then he must give an explanation to Tianshan and Peach Blossom Mountain. Why are you two guessing blindly?" Besides, it's only natural for us to come. If he really lied to us, then wouldn't we just directly run away? " After hearing this, the already restless bandits all quietened down.

Huangfu Xiong was slightly surprised. Who was this person? Why did the fearless Tianqing bandits listen to him like this?

"I am Martial Grand Master Qingshan, a scholar, Zhuge Xin. Greetings, Great Master of the Peach Blossom Mountain." Zhuge Xin walked in front of Huangfu Xiong, put away his folding fan, and cupped his hands as he spoke.

Huangfu Xiong was secretly surprised to see this person's elegant demeanor. He finally understood why Hu Dehai had such an expert to help him. No wonder he was able to rope that piece of loose sand into his service and attack Zhengzhou City together.

"Sir, you have the bearing of a transcendent being. I'm sure you're an otherworldly expert." Huangfu Xiong cupped his hands and said to Zhuge Xin.

Seeing the two of them flattering each other, Hu Dehai coughed dryly to remind Zhuge Xin that he was the stronghold's advisor.

Seeing that, Zhuge Xin chuckled and said, "I have something to tell you about the dispute between the two leaders just now. Please listen quietly."

Hu Dehai nodded and said, "Military Advisor, go ahead." Huangfu Xiong also made a gesture to invite him in.

Zhuge Xin immediately said, "Today, you two came here with the other brothers to surrender, which proves that we brothers are not willing to be strong people for the rest of our lives. However, since we have already surrendered, we must do so in a manner of surrender. In the future, we will all be brothers who eat in the same pot, why must we struggle against each other so arduously? It would be better to each take a step back. After all, no matter what position one holds, it is still up to the imperial government to decide, isn't it? "

Zhuge Xin's words caused the two of them to blush and become speechless. Seeing that the results had been achieved, Zhuge Xin chuckled and persuaded both parties to return to their respective rooms to rest.

The next day, the imperial edict was passed down, bestowing upon Huangfu Xiong the title of the commander-in-chief of the Prefecture, commanding the troops and horses of the Prefecture to defend the territory of the Prefecture. Temporarily bestowed Hu Dehai as a right general to assist Zhao Wei in exterminating the Zhengzhou bandits, and then entered the capital as a reward.

This time, the two of them were beaming with joy. Although Hu Dehai did not become the main soldier of Zhengzhou, it was still very good for the imperial government to let him follow Zhao Wei and promise to give him more rewards afterwards. As for Huangfu Xiong, he had finally succeeded in becoming a government official from a bandit, and his subordinates all became officials. It could be said that they were all overjoyed.

On the other side, when many of the bandits saw that Tian Qingshan and Peach Blossom Mountain had accepted the challenge, they also joined the formation. Only a few of them stubbornly resisted, but in the end, not a single ripple was stirred. While calming the local population and cutting off all eyes and ears of the bandits, Zhao Wei sent scouts to search the area. In the end, Zhao Wei used less than two months of time to completely quell all the troubles that had been plaguing Zhengzhou for so many years.
