Chapter 114: Withdrawal and March

"Yuan Gongzi might as well give it a try!" Zhong Zijin reminded.

Yuangai Suwen nodded, took out a handful of copper coins from his arms, picked up ten, stacked them on top of the desk, and then took two steps back, flipped his wrist, danced a knife flower, and slashed it down like lightning.

"Click!" With a bang, not only were all the copper coins split in two, but even the corners of the case were cut off, and if it weren't for Yuan Gai Suwen's quick retraction, he would have almost been cut to the ground.

"This..."Except for Zhong Zijin, the other three were taken aback, and their eyes widened as they looked at the knife in Yuan Gai Suwen's hand.

"Good knife, intact!" Yuangai Suwen looked at the treasure knife in his hand and admired it again, with unconcealed love in his eyes.

(The knife cuts copper coins, in fact, you just take a kitchen knife, you can cut a few, as long as you have the strength, use real bronze coins, so the steel knife cuts ten, it is not surprising, although this requires strength and a better steel knife, here is an exaggeration, you can see the official master as Yuan Gai Suwen has great strength.) )

"The knife is a good knife, double leather armor, iron armor, neither of which can be defended, but the price is not cheap." Zhong Zijin smiled bitterly.

"How much?" Yuangai Suwen asked casually with the knife hanging on his waist.

"Three hundred taels of silver, or the equivalent of something."

"Three hundred taels, it's not expensive."

"If it's just Yuan Gongzi to use, it's not expensive, but it's hard to say if it's more, a thousand handles will cost 300,000 taels, I don't know how much the Yuan family can buy? Five thousand? Or ten thousand? Zhong Zijin's eyes narrowed and asked with a sneer.

You must know that these families have a big business, but the expenses are also not small, if you really want to count the family property, there are still millions of taels, but what can be used is only tens or millions of taels at most, and any more will shake the fundamentals.

"This..."Yuan Gai Suwen couldn't help but speak, even if the Yuan family was rich, he didn't dare to say that he would take out hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for a while.

"Ahem! A good knife, if it can be equipped with an army and used as a raid, it is still quite good. Yuan Taizuo relieved his son.

"We'll talk about this later, let's withdraw our troops first." The martial master said.

"There has been no movement in Baiyan City, there should be no pursuit, we will cross the river immediately." The young head of the family said.

"Okay, I'll go and prepare for an immediate withdrawal." The martial master's spirit was shocked, and then he couldn't wait to get up and leave.

"Are you unwilling?" In the big tent, there are only the father and son of the Yuan family, Yuan Taizuo asked.

"Yes, father." Yuan Gai Suwen's eyes closed, then opened, and replied respectfully.

"Not only are the soldiers frightened, but the three major families are also frightened, we alone are difficult to support, and we can't be consumed in consumption, after all, there is still a plain king in the country, and I wish our strength was lost.

If you want to leave, if you don't negotiate peace, Baiyan City only needs to attack halfway, how much will you lose? We can't afford it. Yuan Taizuo exclamation mark.

"Yes, the child understands, but why did the father send Chixiao?" Yuan Gai Suwen asked puzzled.

"Alas! Today is different from the past, although we defeated Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty in the past few years, our Goguryeo still suffered heavy losses, after all, we are not as rich as the Central Plains. Think about it, the Central Plains is in chaos because of this, how much better are we?

The defeat of Liaodong, the defeat of Buyeo Fortress, the attack of Silla and Baekje, a series of events, not only the strength of the royal family was seriously damaged, but we are not the same. Yuan Taizuo sighed, before Yuanzi swam in, he felt that there was a person on his head, and he was not in a good mood, and when he was really in power and completely controlled the family, he realized the pressure in all aspects, and only then did he know the hardships of maintaining a big family, not to mention going further, even if he wanted to keep the existing one, it was particularly nerve-wracking.

This is not in its position, not seeking its government, on the other hand, not in its position, do not know its hardships, many times, on the surface to see others in a high position, infinite scenery, and so on to that step, only to know the hardships, only to know that the strength is not enough, the height is not cold.

"You don't need to be red in the sky, that sword..."

"It's been more than two hundred years since our family got Chixiao, so what? The sword is just a dead thing, and in terms of sharpness, it is only better than this sword, and it is only used by one person, how useful is it?

The most important thing now is foreign aid, it is precisely that Liaodong is a powerful foreign aid, and when you completely control Goguryeo and defeat Liaodong in the future, Chixiao will not come back. Yuan Taizuo said.

"Father taught me a lesson!"

"Arrange the withdrawal of the army, the Yuan family will be yours in the future, you have to learn to think more, take a long-term view, and be lenient." Yuan Taizuo waved his hand tiredly.

"Yes! Retire the child! A flash of joy flashed in Yuangai Suwen's eagle eyes, bowed his head and saluted, and then walked out of the big tent.

………………

"Goguryeo has withdrawn its troops, I really want to give them a hard blow!" Standing at the head of the city, Su Dingfang sighed.

"Now is not the time, our main energy will be in the Central Plains and Goguryeo for a long time to come, and they need to balance their internal strength and hold each other." Zou Yu shook his head and smiled.

"The subordinates are just unwilling, and it is not easy to force them to this point, and defeating them can completely make them break their muscles and bones." Su Dingfang smiled helplessly.

"Yes, I'm not reconciled, but this is just the strength of the family, I really want to defeat it, Gao Jianwu, the king of the plains, has no henchmen, and he can concentrate his forces to fight with us, and there is no benefit in dragging it out like this." Zou Yu agreed.

"Yes! However, Goguryeo's current strength should be able to stop for a while. ”

"Hehe, that's inevitable, you must know that there is still a Silla eye, but before turning to the Central Plains, we still have an account, which must be calculated!" Zou Yu said with half-squinted eyes.

"The general is talking about the Evil Clan?"

"Yes, most of this nation is still uncivilized, savage, and has attacked us again and again, not giving them a ruthless blow, and not having a long memory." Zou Yu nodded and said fiercely.

"Well, if you completely defeat them, the rear will be much more stable in the future, and Goguryeo will have one less strong reinforcement." Su Dingfang agreed.

"Haha! That's of course, but for now, let's take Benxi first! Zou Yu laughed confidently.

After this battle, Goguryeo did not think about counterattacking for a short time, and now Liaodong has finally gained a firm foothold, and after several years of hard work, it has been stable in exchange, and there is no reason to be unhappy.

"The general can rest assured, with the warrant of the Yuan family, he can't take Benxi lightly, and the last general will not be ashamed!" Su Dingfang said with a confident smile.

One of the contents of this transaction, the Yuan family issued a warrant to let Zou Yu and them pretend to be Goguryeo, so that they could easily win it, but the condition was that they could not leak the news.

"Okay, I'll pick up on the other side, this time I'll empty Benxi and leave an empty city for them, haha!"

Zou Yu and what they discussed was that Su Dingfang crossed the river to take the city, Zou Yu organized people to respond, and Yuan Taizuo's request was to kill all the guards or arrest them, but Zou Yu didn't think so, and no one was missing.
