Barracks at the foot of the mountain.
All the soldiers from Jingzhou were gathered together. Although most of them were killed in the battle, there were still tens of thousands of them, forming a large black mass.
Seeing Pei Yun and others coming, the Jingzhou soldiers couldn't help but tighten their weapons.
They were fighting with Pei Yun yesterday, and many of their brothers died at the hands of the enemy. Unexpectedly, they surrendered today. Many soldiers even wondered if this was a tactic to confuse the enemy.
Pretend to surrender and let Pei Yun come down. As long as he leaves the Qianhu Suo, with so many people on their side rushing forward, they will definitely be able to capture Pei Yun.
Many soldiers looked at the captain, hoping that he would give orders.
However, these captains had already gone to the Qianhu Office and witnessed Pei Yun's magic. Like Xiao Yan, they had been brainwashed. When they saw Pei Yun coming down, they all showed fanaticism in their eyes.
Pei Yun did not come alone, he also had to be on guard, so he brought down all the people in the stronghold. Each of them held a musket in his hand. As long as the Jingzhou soldiers made any unusual movements, he would let them taste the power of the musket.
Chen Yanyu, Ye Zhaoyuan, Leng Qingqiu, and Ye Jinghong followed Pei Yun, which could be said to have maximized the safety factor.
Pei Yun stood on a makeshift platform and glanced at the tens of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers.
He could feel those suspicious, hateful, and even eager gazes, but he just smiled faintly and spoke slowly.
"Commendants, do you know who I am?"
There was no response from the audience, only the sound of suppressed breathing.
Pei Yun flicked his sleeves, and suddenly a bag of crystal clear snow-white rice appeared out of thin air in his hand, sparkling in the sunlight.
"I am the Celestial Lord of the Nine Skies, and I have reincarnated to save the common people from danger!"
He raised his hand and waved it, and the rice poured down like a waterfall, falling in front of the soldiers in the front row.
"The food that the people have worked so hard to grow is inexhaustible here. You have all experienced the famine before, where countless people died of starvation and thirst."
"But those who follow me will not only not suffer from hunger, but will also have delicious food every day. I can make sure you have enough to eat, warm clothes to wear, and meat for every meal!"
The soldiers of Jingzhou stared with their eyes wide open. They had never seen such pure white rice grains before. Some of them even couldn't help but reach out to touch it, and then exclaimed: "It's really rice!"
Pei Yun smiled and continued to buy rice from the mall and threw it to the back. Bags of rice and flour fell down.
The soldiers of Jingzhou were stunned. So much rice and flour appeared out of thin air. It was really an act of magic.
As for the captains, they had already seen it at the Qianhu Suo yesterday, and they were still shocked when they saw it again.
Pei Yun spoke again at this time, "You were my enemy yesterday, I will not pursue you! Since you have surrendered to me today, you will be my soldiers, and you will no longer suffer from hunger and cold!"
"If you die in battle, you will be included in the Conferred God List, and become a god in your next life, with a lifespan as long as the heavens!"
Looking at the food that kept appearing, everyone was shocked.
Even people like Chang Wei, who were used to it, were extremely excited at this moment.
Ye Zhaoyuan and Ye Jinghong also looked excited. Masters like them no longer sought fame or fortune, but a higher level of immortality.
Although they cannot achieve immortality in this life, as long as they follow Pei Yun, they can become immortals in the next life, so they are willing to follow Pei Yun.
Even strong men like them believe in reincarnation, let alone ordinary soldiers.
The captains knelt down at this time, shouting "Greetings, Immortal Master!"
Then, like a tidal wave, tens of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers knelt down one after another, shouting:
"Greetings to the Immortal Master! I wish to follow the Immortal Master!"
They were completely convinced that the person who could produce so much food out of thin air could only be an immortal.
Only immortals have such means.
All the resentment towards Pei Yun in my heart disappeared at this moment, replaced by awe, and at the same time I figured it out.
No wonder their army of one hundred thousand couldn’t defeat a small thousand-household unit, no wonder the other side had heavenly thunder and earthly fire.
The opponents are the immortal master's soldiers, and the weapons they use are from heaven. How could they possibly win?
Afterwards, Chang Wei and others began to explain to the Jingzhou soldiers what the Investiture of the Gods was, completely brainwashing them.
Pei Yun stood with his hands behind his back, a slight smile on his face. He knew that from this moment on, this army would be completely loyal.
However, now is not the time to publicize it. Xiao Yan told him that some masters from the palace would come, and if they knew that this group of Jingzhou soldiers had rebelled, they would definitely not come.
Pei Yun planned to take advantage of the situation and stayed in the military camp with Ye Zhaoyuan and other four masters, waiting for the arrival of the palace masters, to deal with them, and then announce his identity as a master in Yizhou.
…
Jingzhou.
Xiao Yan has returned to the palace, and he is still excited at this moment.
He actually came across this great opportunity. He came back to make 100,000 Jingzhou soldiers submit to Pei Yun and at the same time offer Jingzhou to Pei Yun.
He has been named King of Jingzhou for many years. Although his control over Yizhou is not as great as Xiao Cheng's, he still has a certain influence.
At this moment, he was inviting a group of officials from Jingzhou to the palace for a drink.
How could these officials dare not come when the prince invited them? Even the governor of Jingzhou had to give face to the prince, let alone others.
Inside the palace hall, the lights were bright and the sound of stringed instruments could be heard.
Xiao Yan sat high in the main seat, smiling, and raised his glass to toast the officials: "My Lords, today's banquet is held because we have a great happy event to announce!"
Jingzhou Governor Zhao Yuande said with a smile: "Did your Highness capture the rebel Pei Yun during this expedition? If so, it would be a great joy!"
The other officials also echoed: "Yes! Once the prince takes action, how can Pei Yun resist?"
