Although the Zhao Jun on the tower of Que and the city were temporarily suppressed by the generals, their eyes were also looking at the dark curtain not far away.

Under the cover of the night, the army of the Qin army camp lined up in formation, as if it changed at any time, and would rush to kill the Que and the city tower like a poisonous snake.

The black color is like a pine forest, and fierce beasts lurk.

Wang Di and other generals knew that at this time, it was a gathering of momentum for the Qin army, and once they rushed into battle, the 20,000 trapped troops would tear apart Que and the city with the momentum of landslides and ground cracks.

However, for Zhao Jun, on the contrary, the instinctive fear of the unknown in human nature will permeate the hearts of Zhao Jun's defenders over time, and fear will breed and spread.

Que and the commander of the Chinese army.

A general arched his hand and said: "General, if there is no countermeasure, there will be a change!" ”

Another person immediately followed: "General, the flying snow in June, although it is a vision, we can't understand it, but the Qin army does this, we must take precautions, otherwise Jinyang will be a lesson for us, and from the perspective of the last general, the Qin army will launch a fierce attack in an hour at most." ”

Why are the generals and soldiers of Que and the city afraid, you must know that Jinyang and Que are very close, and the heavy snow in June not long ago, no one can resist the guards of Jinyang.

Isn't it because of the snow in June, and the king has no virtue?

Moreover, the 40,000 Zhao soldiers were alive and looking dead in their eyes.

The so-called teaching to others and empathizing with oneself is this truth.

Ran Jin said: "What you said, I don't know, but now in the scorching summer of June, there is no way to keep the cold in my city, if it is in the past, we can discuss requisition with the people in the city before the accident, but now, not to mention that the army is overwhelming our army does not have this time at all, not to mention that now Que and the desperate plan, the army and the people are separated." ”

To put it bluntly, even if Qin Jun was cheating, Ran Jin didn't dare to take this risk.

Once it really snows again in June, then there is no need for the Qin army to attack, and Que He will be sent down.

The adjutant generals also looked at each other with pale faces, it was really that the Qin general's plan was too vicious and vicious, and before the siege of the city, even if the plan was too bad and chaotic, now the soldiers are coming to the city, which makes the army panic.

Suddenly, a general's expression rose and said, "General, the last general has thought of a strategy to break the enemy!" ”

As soon as the general said, the rest of the people looked over, Ran Jin frowned, and said in surprise: "Come quickly, how to break the situation!" ”

The general said: "The general has forgotten that the reason why Que and the city could not withstand the cold at the beginning was because before the arrival of the Qin army, the Guo clan in Jinyang collected a large number of silk, brocade, cotton, and hemp to trade. ”

As the general finished speaking, everyone present suddenly remembered and naturally understood what he meant.

Suddenly one by one excited, these things, isn't it just for keeping warm and keeping out the cold, with these cotton and linen, after the distribution of the army, even if there is a vision of Jinyang, you can tie cotton and linen to your body to keep out the cold. Zhao Jun doesn't have to wait for death.

"Good way! As long as Guo's materials are used as baggage, our soldiers and soldiers will be able to settle down in the army. ”

"This is Guo Bushi's family property, we will forcibly levy it, and then Guo Bushi will blame it, what will we do."

Ran Jin was overjoyed when he heard this, clapped his hands vigorously, and said: "This method is wonderful, this method can solve the worries of our army, our army can defend the city because of this, Guo Bushi is also a great achievement, how to blame, quickly order someone to discuss with Guo." ”

"General, if the Guo clan disagrees with the last general, how to act."

Ran Jin wanted to say that he would be forcibly requisitioned directly, but after thinking about it, he said: "You can negotiate requisition first, if you don't comply, you will say that you will exchange military salaries for purchase, and if you don't comply, you will forcibly requisition." ”

After all, Guo has Guo Kai, Guo Kai is the history of the field, in charge of the taxes of the officials of the Zhao State and the people, when Zhao Hao was the history of the field, Zhao Sheng was forcibly recruited, Zhao Sheng did not obey, Zhao Hao killed Zhao Sheng's nine servants, you must know that before Zhao Hao did not get up, but Zhao Sheng's faction, although the rights of the history of the field are not directly in the army, but they are very large.

The military salaries of each city are issued, and this threshold is also a hand in the history of Tabe.

The Guo clan is nothing, but if you offend Guo Bushi because of this, everyone present is also afraid, everyone has a clan behind them.

Therefore, only the first Dao Mingque and the guard general wanted to exchange military salaries, so there was a rhetoric.

After listening to this, the general understood what Ran Jin meant.

"Yes!"

For the arrival of the Zhao army's guards, the Guo clan was very surprised.

Originally, according to the meaning of the clan, it was to go to Que and meet Chu Shang, but after he came, he found that Chu Shang had not yet arrived, and he just ordered someone to wait in the city for a few days.

This was nothing, but Jinyang was suddenly attacked by the Qin army, and Que He was frightened and closed the city.

The people of the Guo clan were also trapped in the city.

The guards made their intentions clear, and the faces of the Guo clan were not good-looking, after all, they were merchants.

It is instinct for merchants to pursue profits, and these materials cost eight hundred catties of gold in the clan.

More than 40 double-horse vehicles also need to be equipped with manpower to push the carts that can be pulled.

The Guo clan looked at Gong Ao one after another.

During this period of being trapped, Gong Ao and everyone became acquainted, Gong Ao was bold, majestic and burly, and naturally became the backbone of everyone at this time.

Moreover, Gong Ao's doppelganger is Guo Kai's doorman, and at this time, Gong Ao's opinion is the most important.

Gong Ao looked at the generals of Zhao State with a cold face, and said: "General, these materials were purchased by my Guo family for eight hundred catties of gold, guarding the city, it is your duty as a courtier of Zhao State, but you put these duties on the businessmen such as us, and you want to requisition our materials for no reason, can you take Guo Bushi in your eyes?" ”

"That's it, I'm talking about it, I'm from Jinyang, why do we help you Quehe, how do you treat our Jinyang defenders, why do you want me Jinyang to help you."

"That's right, you waited for the unrighteous before, but now you want to oppress us and other Jinyang merchants, waiting for Guo Bushi to inform the king of your and other actions, and the king will definitely punish him severely."

The Guo clan looked at Gong Ao's face, and when they looked at the blushing faces of several soldiers in the Zhao army, they had no fear, and they made sarcastic remarks.

Previously, the city was in turmoil, wasn't it just that Que and the generals would not be saved when they saw death.

When these words reached the ears of the guards and soldiers, they were particularly harsh, but now they were not reasonable, and they had to whisper their voices.

"Although you are a merchant, but you are also a Zhao person, now that the national crisis is at the head, you will be requisitioned to defend against the enemy, even if Guo Bushi is in front of him at this time, he must definitely agree."

Gong Ao said: "Before Guo Bushi returned to Handan, he only told me to escort this batch of materials and hand them over safely to the merchants of Chudi, which is where the duty lies, and it is also your duty to guard the city with you, and Guo Bushi is not in front of you now, I can't hand it over to you for my duty, I am saying, why should my Jinyang caravan hand over the materials to the unrighteous army." ”

"You! Daring! When the general heard this, he stopped talking.

Gong Ao was not afraid, and said, "What? The people in the city all say that you are an unrighteous army, could it be that I wronged you and couldn't wait, and you have the ability to kill me, although I have few people in the Guo family, but I am not afraid of you and others, if we are killed by you, can you survive afterwards? ”

The guard general Gong Ao's chest rose and fell in anger, his face was angry, and he said half-loudly: "Okay, I will have military affairs in my body, and I won't argue with you, since you don't want to give it away, then how about I buy it with military salaries, you and others are all businessmen, and we will follow your rules." ”

Gong Ao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Are you sure you follow our rules?" ”

"Ben will say it, naturally I won't lie to you, I bought these things."

Seeing that the generals of the Zhao army lowered their attitude, the face of the Guo caravan also looked better, you know, on weekdays, these generals never look at them as businessmen, if there is something to ask for, it is not low, or to prepare a generous gift, now seeing the appearance of the guards of Que He, one by one is secretly refreshed in their hearts.

Gong Ao asked about the attitude of some Guo clansmen, and everyone also said yes.

After discussing for a while, Gong Ao said: "General, since you said that you will come according to our rules, if I don't agree, it will seem that I am deliberately embarrassing you, after all, we are a caravan, and Chongli is like your guard, please don't be surprised." ”

The guard snorted coldly.

Gong Ao said disapprerovantly: "The general can know that the cost of my forty carts of goods is geometric, and the profit is geometric!" ”

The guard general knew that Gong Ao was going to negotiate the price, "I don't know, you said the price, I can't discount your price." ”

Gong Ao said: "The cost of forty-eight carts of goods is eight hundred gold. ”

"What? Eight hundred gold! The guard was shocked, and his annual salary in the city was only 200 eridium, 4,000 catties.

The guard general looked at the person dressed as a civil official on the side, and the man nodded: "According to the market price of Handan, it is about the same." ”

Although 800 catties is a lot, the guards are still acceptable.

Gong Ao said: "Does the general know what is the advantage of my goods?" ”

Shou will continue to look at the civil official, and the civil official said: "The cotton and linen things are two percent profitable, and I will buy these materials for nine hundred and sixty catties, and I will not take advantage of you." ”

The civil official thought that the price he quoted must be good, but as he spoke, the faces of the Guo caravan became extremely ugly.

Gong Ao sneered, and then, the Guo clan took out a business letter and unfolded it for the civil officials to see.

The guards and civil officials couldn't help but almost scold their mothers, and the merchant letter wrote: "The merchants of Chudi want to buy a large amount of cotton and linen brocade, and Xu Li is twice as much as Zhao Di!" ”

It means that if you sell it to me, I will give you twice the benefit of Zhao Land.

Gong Ao sneered: "If it weren't for heavy profits, how could we loot the materials of the whole city and come to Quehe?" ”
