Chapter 984: Zhou Xu Boning's Account Discussion (continued)

As soon as Zhou Yu heard Manzhong's words, he sneered in his heart at this time, and said in his heart What is the situation on your Yanzhou Army's side, can you still not know Manmanning, use this to prevaricate us, but unfortunately it is still not enough to see.

But Zhou Yu couldn't say it so clearly, so he just said to Man Chong: "Since that's the case, what does Mr. Yi Boning mean?" ”

Xu Shu also smiled at Manzhong, "Now it's 'asking for a price all over the place, pay back the money on the spot', Mr. Berning will talk about what can be the master, let Gong Jin and Zai listen to it, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

Several people are just acting, but everyone understands it, but they don't break it, so it's not interesting. Zhou Yu and Xu Shu, including Sun Ce and Liu Bei, who didn't know that Man Chong actually had full authority to deal with the matter of the alliance, at least they knew in their hearts that before Man Chong left, Cao Cao must have given him a lot of power to deal with the matter of the alliance. But since Man Chong didn't tell the truth, they didn't mean to force him.

Anyway, in the end, as long as all parties are happy and have achieved their goals, then that's it, and the rest, nothing-

As soon as Man Zhong heard the words of Zhou Yu and Xu Shu, he smiled at them, and then said: "Since Mr. Gongjin and Mr. Yuan Zhi have said so, then ......"

Man Chong once again showed the "sincerity" of their Yanzhou army, of course, it must be more than before, and Zhou Yu and Xu Shu listened to it. I also nodded secretly in my heart. As for Sun Ce and Liu Bei after hearing this, they said in their hearts that there is absolutely room for negotiation in this matter, and this is definitely not the bottom line of their Yanzhou army. Of course. I don't expect it, I must press on the other party's bottom line, but how much I can fight for my own interests, then I can fight for as many interests as possible.

And Sun Ce believes in Zhou Yu, and Liu Bei naturally trusts Xu Shu, otherwise it would be impossible for the two of them to leave this matter to the two of them. Of course, I have to say that Sun Ce and Liu Bei are two. In the face of such a powerful lobbyist as Full Pet, they are indeed not very good at negotiating with others, let alone facing such a powerful character as Full Pet.

Zhou Yu and Xu Shu listened to Man's words. The two looked at each other again, both knew what each other meant, and said in their hearts, sure enough. This matter is still discussed.

For the benefit of their own side. I still have to negotiate with him Man Boning, this time Zhou Yu glanced at Xu Shu and asked him to take the lead this time. There was no way, Xu Shu could only follow Zhou Yu's thoughts, and only heard him say at this time: "After listening to Mr. Berning's conditions, it is indeed okay, but your army wants to form an alliance with our alliance, isn't this condition?" ”

Man Pet smiled when he heard this. At this time, he glanced at Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu was closing his eyes to recuperate. As if none of this had anything to do with him. But Manzhong's heart is like a mirror, where is Zhou Yu recuperating there, but he deliberately made it like this for himself.

However, this did not prevent Man Pet from continuing to speak, so I heard him say to Xu Shu at this time: "I don't know what Mr. Yuan Zhi means, what are the conditions, please talk about it in person!" ”――

Xu Shu smiled at this time: "Hahaha! Mr. Berning, what I mean is to add another 30% to myself on the basis of what Mr. Berning said before! ”

When the full pet heard this, he gasped in his heart, and said in his heart that you Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi, you really dare to speak, this is really a big mouth. On the basis of what I said before, add another three percent to your coalition army? You have to know how many things you can take out from your Yanzhou army and how many benefits you can give you, you are opening your mouth now, but you have really exceeded your bottom line.

After Zhou Yu listened to Xu Shu's words, he was actually very satisfied in his heart. To be honest, he and Xu Shu thought the same thing, and they both knew that if he said this, he would definitely exceed the bottom line of the Yanzhou Army, but the negotiations still had to be discussed, and they had to be negotiated well, so if there was no accident in this matter, it would definitely not be blown. Then Xu Shu should have opened his mouth at this time, and then he was forced to give the bottom line to himself, so he did a good job and was right-

As for Sun Ce and Liu Bei, they were the same, and they felt that what Xu Shu said was nothing. For them, their own people, it is natural to strive for more benefits for their own side, so both of them agree with Xu Shu's approach. As for how to say it, that's his business, unless he's really not ready to talk about it, or he doesn't tell the truth, or he still has an advantage, this thing is right.

Full of favor said that if you don't explain your bottom line today, this matter will not be easy to do. Although he didn't think that Xu Shu was really big and wanted so many things for himself, but people were already asking for the price, and he had to change money on his side.

So he said to Xu Shu and Zhou Yu at this time: "Mr. Yuanzhi, Mr. Gongjin, forgive Mr. Yuanzhi's conditions, and my Yanzhou army can't agree to it." Our army is here with sincerity, if you add another one and a half, I can call the shots, more than this, please forgive me for not being the master! ”

When Zhou Yu and Xu Shu heard this, they said in their hearts that you should give the bottom line to Manman, and they also knew in their hearts that this was already the limit of the Yanzhou Army. To tell the truth, if they are forced to take advantage of it, it will not benefit anyone.

Zhou Yu and Xu Shu looked at their lord, while Sun Ce and Liu Bei saw their advisers looking at them. Both of them nodded slightly, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious, that is, they agreed.

And Zhou Yu and Xu Shu. After seeing his father-in-law's actions, he also knew how to say to the full pet.

At this time, Zhou Yu smiled at Man Chong and said, "Okay, since Mr. Berning is so happy, then this matter, so be it!" ”

Xu Shu also smiled and said to Manzhong: "Yes, I mean the same!" ”

Full Pet listened to the words of the two. He was much more relaxed, after all, Sun Ce and Liu Bei had made an alliance before. It was handed over to Zhou Yu and Xu Shu to deal with it all, so they agreed, which means that Sun Ce and Liu Bei both agreed.

Sure enough, when Man Pet looked at Sun Ce and Liu Bei. Both of them smiled at him and nodded slightly. That means, it's agreed.

Man Pet laughed and said, "Okay, so good, so you can stay on the main bus!" ”――

At this time, he was indeed a lot more relaxed, at least he knew that this thing was done. As for the ones that followed. It's about his lord, Sun Bofu and Liu Xuande, and he is only responsible for forming an alliance with them. As for the meeting, of course, it must be discussed at this time, but in the end, the rest is his lord, Sun Ce and Liu Bei.

So at this time, Man Chong said to the two: "General Sun, Xuande Gong, since your army and our army have reached an alliance agreement, I don't know when the two of you will be able to meet my lord?" ”

In the eyes of the Yanzhou army, of course, the sooner this matter is, the better, after all, there is no way out for the party, so who is not in a hurry about this matter. Then after forming an alliance with Sun and Liu's coalition army, and finally seeing Sun Ce and Liu Bei, his lord naturally wanted to discuss this matter with them, so when the time comes, this problem will be solved. After all, they are already allies, and the retreat naturally can't be cut off, so ......

Sun Ce smiled at Man Chong, and then said, "I don't know what Cao Sikong thinks about this issue?" ”――

Sun Ce asked Man Zhong first, of course, this was also what he agreed with Liu Bei after glancing at each other just now.

In their opinion, Cao Cao certainly has his own ideas, of course, the two of them also have their own ideas, but whether it is the two of them or Cao Mengde, it is impossible to choose a place in the other party's territory, so both of them understand in their hearts that in the end, if both sides want to agree, it must be the junction of the forces of the two sides, so it can be imagined.

With a smile on his face, he said to Sun Ce and Liu Bei: "I also ask General Sun and Duke Xuande to come forward, and I will directly point out to the two of you the location where my lord will choose the alliance!" ”

Sun Ce and Liu Bei laughed, and then they heard Sun Ce say, "Mr. Berning, please!" ”

"No!"

Saying that, Man Chong stepped forward directly and came to the place next to Sun Ce, that is, the place where the marching map was hung. And Zhou Yu and Xu Shu, both of them naturally stood up and followed behind Man Pet-

Only Xu Chu, as if he was fine, closed his eyes, and didn't know if he was asleep or not. But depending on the situation, he is half-asleep at this time, but even so, Xu Chu is a first-class military general after all, so he generally knows what is happening next to him.

At this time, Man Chong had already come to the front of the map, and it happened that Sun Ce and Liu Bei also looked at the hanging map, and they wanted to see where Cao Cao chose to let a few people join the alliance.

I saw that Man Pet was pointing on the map with his hand, and everyone looked at it, and there were two words on it: Xiaoling!

Everyone's minds were opened, and the place chosen by Cao Cao, Sun Ce, Liu Bei, and Zhou Yu and Xu Shu had no opinions.

This Xiaoling is such a county under the jurisdiction of Wuling, but Xiaoling City is indeed the northeast of Wuling and the southeast of Nanjun, just at the junction of the two counties, and it is also the only county seat at the junction of the two counties. Therefore, Sun Ce and Liu Bei also knew that Cao Cao was also well-intentioned in order to meet the alliance. Don't look at Xiaoling, it is good under the jurisdiction of Wuling, but the location is indeed the junction of the two counties. So it's the same for everyone, and it's a place that reassures everyone.

Seeing the expressions of Sun Ce and Liu Bei, he was full of pride in his heart, and then said: "I don't know the place my lord has chosen, what do General Sun and Xuande Gong think?" ”

Sun Ce smiled when he heard this, "Hahaha! Okay, agreed. It's just that I don't know what Xuande Gong thinks? ”

As soon as Liu Bei heard Sun Ce's words, he rolled his eyes in his heart, and said in his heart that you, Sun Bofu, agreed. Even if I don't agree, what else can I say. Besides, can I still disagree, I have to admit that Cao Mengde chose this place. It is indeed reassuring for everyone. So naturally there is no problem.

Liu Bei smiled, "Agreed, Xiaoling, this place is very good!" ”

Seeing that Sun Ce and Liu Bei had agreed, he also showed a rare sincere smile. After all, the pressure on his shoulders was too great before, but at this time it was much better, at least he could go back and regain his life with his lord, after losing once at Zhang Yan in Montenegro. This time it was successful again.

Man Chong and Sun Ce and Liu Bei chatted for a while, and then Sun Ce and Liu Bei held a banquet to entertain him and Xu Chu. After all, they were guests or they had come from afar, so it should be. And they are also allies, Sun Ce and Liu Bei called all their subordinates, and they all went to the big tent of the Chinese army to accompany and accompany Man Zhong and Xu Chu.

Of course, during this period, Sun Ce and Liu Bei made an introduction to Man Chong, Xu Chu and their subordinates, and everyone had seen each other, and then this was the banquet.

Eat happily as a guest and host, even if he is full of favor, he is indeed like an arrow, but he also knows what hospitality is, with Sun Ce and Liu Bei keeping him so much, it is impossible for him to leave directly with Xu Chu without giving them any face. And this meal was eaten until very late, and the two of them, Man Chong and Xu Chu, naturally let Sun Ce and Liu Bei leave Sun and Liu Bei in the camp of the Sun and Liu coalition forces, and they must not be allowed to leave.

It wasn't until the second day that Man Chong and Xu Chu said goodbye to Sun Ce and Liu Bei, and the two personally sent them out of their camp, which can be regarded as giving them a big face-

The conversation was very good before, and what Man Chong discussed with Sun Ce and Liu Bei was that five days later, his lord, Sun Ce and Liu Bei would meet in Xiaoling to discuss major matters. And Sun Ce and Liu Bei naturally agreed.

Compared to Cao Cao, they can be said to be very close to Xiaoling, so if they want to go there quickly, it won't take five days at all. It's just that Cao Cao is in Linyuan, a little far away from Xiaoling, and Cao Cao can only receive the news after he returns from his favor, so the two sides naturally agreed on a five-day range that is acceptable.

After Man Zhong and Xu Chu left, Sun Ce said to Liu Bei with a smile: "...... in five days"

Liu Bei also smiled, "Xiaoling sees Cao Mengde!" ”

Then the two looked at each other and smiled, and they were all silent.

Man Zhong talked about the alliance, the conditions of the Yanzhou army, and then finally said that the day of the alliance was good, and nothing else was said. However, Sun Ce and Liu Bei both knew that the rest, naturally, was Cao Cao's business. Especially the most important retreat issue for their Yanzhou army, this is what Cao Cao himself wants to say to the two of them-

"Report to the lord, Mr. Berning and General Xu Chu have returned, less than five miles away from Linyuan!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Gather all the generals and follow me out of the city to greet them!" ”

"No!"

Cao Cao had confidence in Manzhong and knew that the two of them were now "returning victorious", so he should go out of the city with all the generals to meet them, so he said this to Tanma at this time.

After a while, everyone arrived, and then Cao Cao said what he said, and everyone was very happy, and almost no one thought that it had not been done. To be honest, this is not arrogance, but self-confidence, self-confidence in oneself, confidence in full favor, and confidence in Sun Ce and Liu Bei, too, they also have confidence. After all, the two of them are among the best people in the world, so can't they still see the shape of today, an alliance is a matter of mutual benefit, if they don't form an alliance, hehe, then they may not be able to deal with the Liangzhou army.

Cao Cao waved his hand: "Everyone, follow me out of the city to greet Boning and Zhongkang!" ”

"No!" ――

Cao Cao took everyone out of the city, and not long after, he saw two horses coming in the distance, and when he got closer, it was the full favor and Xu Chu of the wind and dust. And the two of them had already seen their lord and the generals in such a position, and they were a little flattered. To be honest, this thing is definitely very rare, after all, if you want your lord to greet you, then in addition to being a great talent in the world, either you can make a great contribution, or it will be of great benefit to yourself, this is still possible, or anything else, it is basically impossible.
