But now, the signs of warlordism in the army have slowly emerged. When the army is damaged in battle, the generals often recruit troops to replenish the establishment, and even form pro-armies. For example, in the towns of Caozhou, Shu Cong of the Suzhou clan has formed at least one capital.

Zhu Quanzhong could only open his eyes and close his eyes.

Among the four of Ding Hui, Pang Shigu, Shi Shucong, and Zhu Zhen, Pang Shigu is probably the most honest, and Shi Shucong may be more obedient, but Ding Hui, Zhu Zhen, and Hu Zhen are the most honest.

Their understanding means they have a lot of little thoughts now.

It can also be seen from this that the strength and weakness between the monarch and his ministers is not static, but is dynamically changing. To put it bluntly, it is still a matter of prestige. There is always a game between people. If the lord is always victorious and the situation is good, then the prestige is higher.

If it is high, it will have an advantage in the game between monarch and ministers, but if it is not high, it will be at a disadvantage and have to give up part of its power.

"The King of Xia has such a big appetite." Zhang Guiba sighed: "The Wei Rong Army has 6,500 infantry and cavalry. The people I brought are no problem, as are the soldiers from Ruzhou and the sergeants from Tu Tuanxiang Yong. The rest of the sergeants are also no problem. , surrounded on all sides, it is not difficult to convince them to surrender. However, the hall is not so easy to surrender, and my brother is afraid that it will be difficult to control. As for the new army, let's see..."

When Zhang Guiba talked about the difficulty of surrender, he did not mention his family from beginning to end, but only talked about the attitude of the sergeants.

In fact, his eldest son Zhang Handing is a hostage in Muzhou, and his family is in Ruzhou. In his eyes, these are not obstacles to surrender. So what if the whole family dies? At the worst, he can just marry and have children. It is really impossible to adopt an adopted son to continue. Incense is fine, that's not a problem. The problem is how to convince the big soldiers to surrender with you.

"It all depends on people." Hu Zhen said with a smile: "Let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. With so many soldiers and horses and so many officers and generals in Muzhou, can King Xia replace them all? Doesn't he have to retain a large number of them? If you surrender early, you will gain early, but if you surrender late, you will suffer losses. If the king of Xia wants to buy horse bones with a large sum of money, isn't that an opportunity?

"In the battle of Luoyang, King Xia's biggest achievement was to win over you, Hu Dalang." Zhang Guiba shook his head and said.
