Fast generation of entanglement states is of critical importance for robust quantum information processing. In this paper, we propose an efficient protocol for a rapidly generating entanglement state between a transmon qubit and microwave photons. The transmon system is coupled to a classical microwave driving and a quantized cavity mode. With the adjustable classical driving, we consider the entanglement creation by transferring the composite states via resonant driving. Compared with the non-resonant cases, the present operation can be accomplished in a shorter time, which thus contributes to mitigating the decoherence effects. Moreover, many transmons inside a common cavity field could be addressed in a scalable way. The proposed strategy could offer a promising approach to optimally prepare entanglement states with superconducting quantum systems.
