After Li Hui listened to what Cheng Yu said, he smiled slightly, "Before leaving, my lord specially instructed his subordinates, saying that if Mr. Zhongde wants the sincerity of our army in Luoyang, then he will say that as long as your army withdraws to Henan, then the sincerity of our army will be sent to Luoyang immediately!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he wanted to laugh, but he still held back. And when Cheng Yu heard it, he was a little angry in his heart, and said that you Ma Mengqi is so rude. Since you are asking our army for peace, you must bring some sincerity, and as a result, what comes out of your mouth is as if your own demands have gone too far.

Although Cheng Yu also knew that his lord did not want to start a war with the Liangzhou army, he also had to say that now it was their Liangzhou army that came to seek peace with them, not their own side. So is it wrong to fight for some interests for yourself, is it never always like this? If you don't come up with some benefits, why should you ask others to withdraw from the army, even if it is your own side and want to withdraw the army, it is true, but this matter has to be done in accordance with the rules of the rivers and lakes.

No, Cheng Yu didn't want to think so much at this time, he just asked Li Hui: "Dare to ask Mr. De'ang, I don't know how much sincerity your army has?" ”

That means how much sincerity your Liangzhou army is prepared to give to yourself.

Li Hui smiled, "My lord said that as long as your army withdraws to Henan, it will take out 30,000 stones of grain and grass and send it to Luoyang!" ”

To be honest, 30,000 stones of grain and grass, if it is for today's Si Li, it is indeed not a little. And for the previous Yanzhou Army, it can't be considered too little. It's just the so-called "this time, that time", now Cao Cao's Yanzhou army, after Yang Xiao's excavation in the field, Cao Cao has a lot of money and food in his hands. Therefore, it would be strange if he and his subordinates could look at these tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass.

However, the so-called is better than nothing, after all, it is a free thing, and who would dislike more grain and grass, but as Cheng Yu, who is the military division of the Yanzhou Army, he still feels that it is a little less, so he still has to strive for greater and more interests for his side, so he said to Li Hui again: "I heard that the Liangzhou Army is rich in grain and grass, why don't you take out 100,000 stones of grain and grass for your army, Mr. agrees to this, our army will withdraw immediately!" ”

Li Hui smiled secretly in his heart. The heart said that although our army lowered its posture to negotiate peace with you, it does not mean that our army is afraid of you, and it is not certain who wins and who loses, and you are not satisfied with 30,000 stones of grain and grass for nothing. The so-called "people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants". Being a man is enough to be enough, and few greedy people end up being good.

But Li Hui, of course, he can't say this. And he just said at this time: "Forty thousand stones." What does Mr. Chung Tak think? ”

Cheng Yu shook his head slowly when he heard this, and he smiled: "Since Mr. De'ang does not agree with 100,000 stones, then it is not difficult for people to be strong, 80,000 stones, what does Mr. think?" ”

And at this time, Cao Cao just watched the two of them bargain here, as the lord. Naturally, it is not good to do this with the enemy's strategists, so it is actually appropriate to leave it to his subordinates.

Li Hui said: "Fifty thousand stones, no more!" Mr. Chungdeok, 50,000 stones. Probably not too little! ”

Cheng Yu just said something after hearing this, but at this time he glanced at his lord, and Cao Cao signaled that this is fine, almost enough, not too greedy.

Cheng Yu understood, he said: "Then so be it!" ”

The tone seemed to be how much he had suffered, and how much Li Hui had taken advantage of.

Li Hui smiled and nodded, "Thank you Gong Cao, thank you Mr. Zhongde!" ”——

In fact, before coming to Luoyang, Ma Chao gave Li Hui a bottom, that is, below 100,000 stone grain and grass, whatever the Yanzhou army wanted.

In fact, in Ma Chao's thoughts, he knew that Li Hui would definitely succeed if he went. If he Cao Cao is a smart man, then this is the case. So whether Cao Cao is a smart person or not, does this need to be said?

As for this so-called sincerity, Ma Chao actually intended to help Cao Cao, of course, now Ma Chao also knows that he doesn't have to help him with anything. Because the Yanzhou Army is already rich in money and grain, people may not be able to look at their tens of thousands of stones, grains and grass, but Ma Chao still took it out without being stingy and asked Li Hui to negotiate with the other party casually.

If Ma Chao remembers well, Yanzhou this year is a year of great drought, so there is a big gap in grain and grass, even if Cao Cao is now rich in grain and grass, but it is estimated that it can only be maintained. So I can help if I can, especially that Cheng Yu, it is said that when there is no food and grass, this old fox directly used human flesh as food and grass to send to Cao Cao, so Ma Chao felt that he could try not to do so if he could prevent this from happening.

But fortunately, Cao Cao has a lot of family backgrounds now, even if he builds Xu County, and then there is a big drought in Yanzhou, it is estimated that it will be enough. Coupled with his own little grain and grass, there must be no problem, at least Ma Chao thinks that Cheng Yu's use of human flesh as food and grass can't happen-

Seeing that Li Hui agreed, Cao Cao was satisfied, and Cheng Yu at this time looked at his lord, because he remembered at this time that he had to believe what Ma Mengqi said. He said that when the time comes, after his troops have withdrawn, he will give him 50,000 stones of grain and grass, and he will definitely be able to give it? But when the time comes, he will withdraw his troops, but what if he doesn't give him food and grass?

As soon as Cao Cao saw Cheng Yu's expression, he knew that he was worried. However, if he is Cheng Yu, he will have such doubts, after all, this matter is not "the upper lip touches the lower lip", the key is how the other party can win his trust.

But that was only for Cheng Yu, but for Cao Cao, he didn't have this concern. Just because Li Hui is a subordinate of Liangzhou Mu Ma Chao, he was personally sent to Luoyang. Just by virtue of his name of helping Ma Chao and Ma Meng, Cao Cao believed it, because he was his own Meng Qixian brother, and Cao Cao knew that Ma Chao would never be untrustworthy in this matter.

First, Ma Chao is not that kind of person, Cao Cao understands this. Ma Chao has always kept his promise and has not broken his word.

As for the second, that is, it is impossible for Ma Chao to lose his trust in the world, and if he does it like that, it will be more than worth the loss.

And Cao Cao doesn't think that Cheng Yu doesn't understand this, he can only say that he is a fan of the authorities.

So Cao Cao gave Cheng Yu an affirmation and a reassuring look, which means that there is no problem, and this statement is credible. And when Cheng Yu saw his father-in-law's expression, he was relieved. And then he thought about it again, maybe he was really worried about this matter. After all, he Liangzhou Muma Meng Qi shouldn't be like that, otherwise how to gain a foothold in the world. Come to think of it, it seems like that's really the case-

At this time, both parties had already negotiated, and Cao Cao shouted: "Someone! ”

The soldier entered the house: "Lord! ”

"Hurry up and find General Zilian outside the city, saying that I have something to find him!"

"No!"

The soldiers went outside the city to find Cao Hong. After a while, Cao Hong came.

After entering the house, Cao Hong first gave Cao Cao a salute. Then he also said hello to Cheng Yu. That's when he found out that there was someone he didn't know.

At this time, Cao Cao spoke, and he first introduced Cao Hong: "This is the military division of the Liangzhou Army, Li Hui and Li Deang!" It's just from Huai County! ”

Then Cao Cao said to Li Hui: "This is Cao Hong, Cao Zilian, the generals under the account!" ”

Cao Hong and Li Hui saluted each other, and then Cao Cao said: Now that I have made peace with the Liangzhou army, Zilian, you should go to Huaixian County quickly and pass on my military order. Tell Zixiao to tell them that they should withdraw their troops back to Luoyang immediately! ”

"No! The subordinates are determined to complete the trust of the lord! ”

To tell the truth, Cao Cao actually likes Cao Hong, a military general, and in his opinion, Cao Hong is his lucky general. So easily. He would not let Cao Hong leave him. It's been two times in a row, and when Cao Cao was in distress, he was rescued by Cao Hong. Cao Cao attaches more importance to these things, so he tries to keep Cao Hong by his side. Although it is not to say that he is personally protected, but with such a blessing, Cao Cao feels that he can make him feel a lot more at ease.

As soon as Cao Hong heard what his lord said, he said in his heart that this was the original thing, then this thing is good, and he can go to Huaixian now. Although it's not going to war, it's a thousand times better than staying in this boring place in Luoyang. Cao Hong still thinks so, during this period he stayed in Luoyang, he was really bored to death. He hadn't complained in his heart before, why didn't he let himself follow Zixiao and them to Huaixian, even if he went there and came back, he was willing.

However, I didn't have a chance before, but this time I was able to make my wish come true.

Originally, with Cao Cao's meaning, he later asked Li Hui if he wanted to leave with Cao Hong, but Li Hui politely refused. For him, at this time, it is better to return to Huaixian County, and go to his lord's place to hand over the errand, and his mission will be completed. As for if he really goes with him Cao Zilian, then maybe he will have to follow him to the Yanzhou Army's camp at that time, Li Hui really doesn't like to go, so of course he won't go with Cao Hong.

So Cao Cao didn't keep too much, and Li Hui immediately said goodbye to a few people and left Luoyang. Li Hui is really "in a hurry, in a hurry", staying in Cao Cao's time, it hasn't been an hour yet-

Outside Huaixian County, the Yanzhou Army camp, Sima Yi came to find Cao Ren at this time.

Cao Ren saw that it was Sima Yi coming, he didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly said, "Sir, please take a seat!" ”

"General Xie!"

Although Sima Yi is young, Cao Ren also calls him Mr. I have to say that Cao Ren does have some vision. In fact, if you think about it, on the way from Luoyang to Huaixian, Cao Ren was defeated by Sima Yi, so he really didn't dare to underestimate Sima Yi, or maybe he would suffer a big loss.

After Sima Yi sat down, Cao Hong asked, "Is there anything important that Mr. came to find Hong?" ”

Sima Yi nodded and said with a smile: "I can't talk about anything important, but now Yi is leaving, and I am here to say goodbye to the general!" ”

When Cao Ren heard this, he showed reluctance, "Sir, this is about to leave?" Could it be that the Yanzhou army is negligent? ”

Sima Yi said with a smile: "No, it's just that Yi is only successful in learning now, so he has to go around the world and increase his knowledge." In Luoyang before, Yi actually said it, so now he has to leave! ”

Cao Ren naturally knew the truth, but to be honest, he really wanted Sima Yi to stay in his camp for some more time. After all, if he is here, if Ma Chao and the others really have any conspiracy against themselves, then they will have someone who understands very well to discuss countermeasures. But Sima Yi is not here, so he will have a lot less confidence.

After all, it's a rainy day, Sima Yi is here, even if Ma Chao really does something to himself, then Sima Yi will never stand idly by. Cao Ren naturally has a bottom in his heart. (To be continued......)
