If Prince Yong'an hadn't left, we might have been able to fight the government troops, but now that Prince Yong'an is gone, our brothers' hearts have been scattered."
Liu Hu was silent for a moment and then said, "As Brother Yuan said, we started the rebellion just to survive.
If the Zhenxi Army can save the lives of more than two million of our volunteer brothers, why not surrender to the Zhenxi Army?
As long as the two million or so righteous brothers can survive, even if the Zhenxi Army wants my head, I, Liu Hu, will offer it with both hands."
Sun Hao never thought that it would be so easy to deal with the remaining bandits in Zibo.
As soon as Sun Hao led his army into Suiping County, the brothers Liu Hu and Liu Bao, as well as Yuan Tianhu, the leader of the Meizhou bandits, sent people to meet them and expressed their intention to surrender.
Sun Hao was originally worried that the bandits would pretend to surrender, but the entire process of accepting the surrender of more than two million bandits went extremely smoothly.
Afterwards, Sun Hao ordered Geng Jing, the commander-in-chief of the Left Guard of the Zhenxi Army, to lead 30,000 soldiers of the Left Guard of the Zhenxi Army to escort the more than two million bandits back to Xizhou. Sun Hao would then lead his troops into Yizhou to clear out the bandits in Yizhou.
Through the "Intermediate Exploration Eye", Sun Hao discovered many talents among the bandits.
For example, Liu Hu's combat power value is 96 points, Liu Bao's combat power value is 97 points, and the scholar named Xie Deyi under Yuan Tianhu has a wisdom value of 92 points. These people were absorbed into the Zhenxi Army by Sun Hao.

However, the other army sent to suppress the rebellion lacked the Jingwu Town and Chaowu Town of the Imperial Guard, and only had about 150,000 people from the Ganyang Army, Huaide Army and Shaochang Army.
In the fierce battle in Wanqiu County, Zibo Prefecture, these three border armies lost a total of more than 10,000 officers and soldiers.
Because the Zhenxi Army's left guard and 40,000 wing troops left in order to relocate the bandits back to Xizhou, there are only 130,000 people left in the Zhenxi Army now.
After the two armies joined forces to suppress the rebellion, the total strength was only a little over 470,000.
