Chapter 280: Liu Jingsheng ceded the land and paid compensation

With the popularization of the prescriptions developed by the three major miracle doctors, the epidemic situation in Liguo, Guanguan, Shunyang, Nanxiang, Danshui, Wudang, Yuxian, Yinxian and Xixian has improved significantly.

At this time, the news that Huang Zhong, who was stationed in Xinye, was infected with the plague also spread to Xiangyang City.

Liu Biao was also shocked when he learned the news, because Huang Zhong was also a general of Jingxiang, if Huang Zhong died of the plague, Liu Biao would really want to cry without tears.

A few more days passed.

Liu Biao in Xiangyang City also knew that Wang Kai had researched a prescription that could cure the plague.

Immediately after, Liu Biao immediately approached Kuai Liang to discuss whether to ask Wang Kai for help, because the plague situation in Nanyang County was indeed not optimistic.

After Kuai Liang learned what Liu Biao meant, he immediately said: "My lord, we did the betrayal of the alliance at the beginning, and now we go to Wang Zhenxi for help, I'm afraid that we will be troubled!" ”

"Zirou, how could I not know? But now the people of Nanyang County are in dire straits, even if they are troubled by Wang Zhenxi, I admit it, who told me to take the wrong first step! ”

Seeing that Liu Biao was already mentally prepared, Kuai Liang stopped persuading.

Immediately, Liu Biao took Kuai Liang and a thousand guards to Shunyang County by boat.

At the same time, Cao Cao of Wancheng also knew that Wang Kai had researched a prescription that could cure the plague.

After learning the news, Cao Cao immediately called Xun You and Cheng Yu to discuss.

In view of the current plague situation, Xun You and Cheng Yu also said that Cao Cao asked him to find Wang Kai for a prescription for the treatment of the plague.

After Cao Cao listened to Xun You and Cheng Yu's advice, he finally decided to send Xun You as an envoy.

Besides, after Liu Biao sailed all the way through Zhuyang County by boat, he finally came to the vicinity of Yin County.

When the Jingzhou sergeant on the bow of the ship saw that there was a wire cable across the river in the waters ahead, a sergeant immediately reported the news to Liu Biao.

When Liu Biao learned that there was a wire crossing the river in the waters near Yin County, he immediately took Kuai Liang to the bow of the boat.

Then, Liu Biao said to Kuai Liang: "Zirou, what do you think of this iron cable Hengjiang?" ”

"Lord, it seems that Wang Zhenxi has planned to take all the county towns on the western front for himself, and this iron cable across the river was obviously built to block the entry of the Jingzhou naval army."

"Zirou, what should we do now? The situation in Nanyang counties is not optimistic! ”

"My lord, the only way to do this is to get off the boat and ride a horse."

Liu Biao thought about it and finally agreed, but because the iron cable Hengjiang blocked the ferry in Yin County, Liu Biao had to go back to the ferry near Zhuyang County to get off the boat and ride north.

It took Liu Biao three days to finally rush to the outside of Shunyang County.

When the guards and the Flying Bear Army outside Shunyang County saw Liu Biao leading a thousand cavalry coming, they quickly surrounded Liu Biao and questioned them.

Liu Biao immediately told his identity.

After learning of Liu Biao's identity, a lieutenant in the pro-guard army quickly went back to report Wang Kai.

When Wang Kai learned that Liu Biao was coming, he was very puzzled and thought: 'What is this Liu Biao trying to do when he comes to me?' ’

Wang Kai, who was puzzled, finally decided to meet Liu Biao.

After Liu Biao took Kuai Liang to Wang Kai's face, the two of them quickly saluted Wang Kai.

When Wang Kai saw Liu Biao and Kuai Liang saluting, he also hurriedly replied with a smile: "Liu Jingzhou, why do you have time to come to me?" ”

After a few words of greeting, Liu Biao also went straight to the point.

"Wang Zhenxi, I came today to ask you to tell me the prescription for the plague."

Hearing Liu Biao say this, Wang Kai suddenly changed his face and replied: "Liu Jingzhou, this prescription for the treatment of the plague is something I have worked hard to research, do you say that if you want me, you will give it to you?" I don't know who secretly betrayed the alliance at the beginning, and you are no longer my ally. ”

When Liu Biao saw that Wang Kai was really angry with him, he smiled bitterly and then replied: "Wang Zhenxi, I didn't know about Cao Mengde's treacherous plan at the beginning, so I had to make a mistake to betray the alliance, and I ask Wang Zhenxi to understand." ”

"Liu Jingzhou, you are also a famous person in Jingxiang, are you deceiving me when you say this?"

Liu Biao was immediately ashamed when he heard this, after all, he did do something that damaged his reputation first.

At this time, Kuai Liang said to Wang Kai: "Wang Zhenxi, I did it at the beginning of the betrayal of the alliance, and if you want to blame it, it will be on my head, and I also ask Wang Zhenxi to remember that the innocent people of Nanyang County handed over the prescription for the treatment of the plague to my lord." ”

When Wang Kai saw Kuai Liang come out to confess, he suddenly thought: "Now is not the time to capture Jingzhou, and it is not appropriate to completely break with Liu Biao at this time, but Liu Biao's betrayal of the alliance cannot be just settled." ’

Thinking of this, Wang Kai finally spoke: "Liu Jingzhou, my Wang Kai is also a person who cares about the people, I can promise you to help treat the plague, but I will not give you this prescription." ”

"It doesn't matter, as long as Wang Zhenxi can save the people of Nanyang, it doesn't matter if I take the prescription or not."

"Liu Jingzhou, don't be in a hurry to be happy, there are still some conditions that you need to do before I promise you."

"Wang Zhenxi, please speak!"

"First, I want to put Liguo, Champion, Xixian, Shunyang, Nanxiang, Danshui, Wudang, Yuxian, and Yin County under my jurisdiction, and you can't find me to return."

Hearing this, Liu Biao was also stunned.

But soon, Liu Biao still agreed to Wang Kai, after all, all these counties have been conquered by Wang Kai.

Immediately after, Wang Kai said again: "This second, Liu Jingzhou needs to compensate me for 500,000 stone milled rice and 500,000 stone corn." ”

Liu Biao thought about it and agreed with it.

Finally, Wang Kai continued: "This is the third. ”

Liu Biao saw that Wang Kai still had conditions, and he immediately asked bitterly: "Wang Zhenxi, how many conditions do you have?" ”

"Not much, just three."

Hearing this, Liu Biao was also relieved, because he was afraid that Wang Kai would ask for a price.

Immediately after, Wang Kai said the third condition.

"This third, that is, Liu Jingzhou compensated me 30,000 gold to replenish military expenses."

When he heard the condition of 30,000 gold, Kuai Liang suddenly stood up and said, "30,000 gold, Wang Zhenxi, why don't you grab it?" ”

"That's right! I'm the one who robbed you. ”

When Kuai Liang heard this, he almost choked back his internal injuries, because Wang Kai's bottomless words really shocked him.

At this time, Liu Biao also carefully weighed the pros and cons.

After Liu Biao figured it out, he immediately replied: "Wang Zhenxi, I agree to all the conditions you said. ”

"Good! Then we'll make up our minds! ”

"A gentleman's word is hard to chase!"

When Kuai Liang saw that Liu Biao actually agreed to Wang Kai's conditions, he was very surprised and said, "Lord, you..."

"Zirou, you don't have to persuade again! I have made up my mind. ”

After hearing this, Kuai Liang sighed helplessly in his heart.

Immediately after, Liu Biao said to Wang Kai: "Wang Zhenxi, when will you leave?" ”

"I can leave now, but I don't know when Liu Jingzhou will give me what I want?"

"It will take half a month at the earliest."

"The handover will be carried out in Zhuyang County half a month later, is there a problem with Liu Jingzhou?"

"I'm fine!"

"Okay, I'll start treating the plague now."

"Wang Zhenxi, if possible, please start with Xinye County, my general Huang Zhong has also been infected with the plague."

Hearing this, Wang Kai was stunned for a moment and then quickly agreed.
