Please sit down, Cao Shuo showed a hint of hesitation on his face.

Seeing his expression, Nanlou's heart was even more bottomless.

Looking at Cao Shuo, although Nanlou didn't ask questions, he was very worried.

"Don't hide it from the king." Cao Shuo sighed and said: "Actually, I also want to save some of Wuhuan, but when the army went out, in order not to delay for too long, my father ordered a lot of baggage to be thrown away. These burdens are worth 20,000 cattle and 50,000 sheep. ”

Cao Shuo obviously opened his mouth widely, his mouth was slightly open, and after a while, he swallowed his saliva before saying: "Childe, 20,000 cows and 50,000 sheep are indeed too much......

"Don't say much, the king." Cao Shuo said: "When I arrived in Youzhou, grain and grass were purchased in various places, and these grains and grasses were worth 10,000 horses at least. ”

Nanlou's eyes widened, and he asked Cao Shuo in astonishment, "I don't know what else I want besides these?" ”

"Many people in Hebei have migrated to Wuhuan to escape the war." Cao Shuo said: "Of course these people are going to Youzhou. ”

"That's it." This condition is difficult to accept.

When the Central Plains people came to Liaoxi, although they brought their farming experience, they also had to take away food from the Wuhuan people, which also brought a lot of trouble to the Wuhuan people.

Sometimes, for their own interests, the Central Plains and Wuhuan people who migrated from here would fight with each other.

Being able to send these people away is not a good thing for Wu Huan.

"Don't be so happy with your promise, the king." Cao Shuo said: "Previously, Wuhuan entered Youzhou, and our army came to Liaoxi, and the Cao family lost a lot of population. The mere relocation of these people back to Youzhou will not solve the decline in population. We also need 50,000 Wuhuan women to go to Youzhou to help the Central Plains raise offspring. ”

"Huh?" Nanlou was stunned and said: "Fifty thousand Wuhuan women ......"

"If the king thinks it's too little, give us 100,000, I don't mind." Cao Shuo said: "These are just the basics, and the others will be mentioned later." If these are not agreed, or if they are given even one sheep or one person less, I am afraid that the peace talks will not be able to progress. ”

"Childe wants too much...... Nanlou said: "In this way, our Wuhuan will be emptied......"

"The Wuhuan people live by nomadism, and they can still have less cattle, sheep and horses?" Cao Shuo frowned, and said to the difficult building with a cold face: "How much hard work do the soldiers of our army have to work on the expedition to Wuhuan?" Each of them brought back a sheep, which should not be too much! ”

Cao's army had a total of 200,000 people, and no one brought back a single sheep, that is, 200,000 sheep.

Nanlou was taken aback, and hurriedly said to Cao Shuo: "Childe's request is indeed impossible. ”

"I know it's hard for you, too." Cao Shuo changed his tone and said, "It's okay if no one brings back a sheep to the soldiers." It is always possible to take one hound per person. ”

"There are fewer hounds than sheep." Nanlou said with a bitter face: "The first few requirements of the son can be fulfilled, but this requirement alone really can't be met......"

"Neither are the sheep, nor are the hounds." Cao Shuo's face changed: "How do you want me and my father to explain to the soldiers?" ”

"Can I trade it for something else?" Nanlou said tentatively: "Let's give more cattle, sheep and women......"

"What about the horses?" Cao Shuo said: "The horses also need to be replenished, so that I can appease the soldiers." ”

"How much does Childe want?" Nanlou asked.

"Ten thousand more women." Cao Shuo said: "There are 30,000 cattle and 60,000 sheep. Two thousand more horses. ”

Finding that Nanlou was still hesitant, Cao Shuo said: "If the king still refuses, we have nothing to say." ”

"Childe, don't ......" Nanlou said: "I'll go back and discuss with Da Danyu, there should be a ...... to talk about"

"There's nothing we can do about the benefits we want." Cao Shuo said: "Although my father gave a military order, if Wuhuan refused to give us what we wanted, once the soldiers mutinied, even my father would not be able to suppress them." ”

Cao Shuo's words are undoubtedly threatening.

Nanlou swallowed his saliva, stood up and said to Cao Shuo: "I'll go see Da Shan Yu first, and then I'll reply to Gongzi after we have discussed it." ”

The negotiation was not very smooth, but Cao Shuo still stood up and sent the difficult building to the door very generously.

After seeing Cao Shuo, Nanlou didn't dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly came to Lou Ban's residence.

As soon as he entered the door, Lou Ban couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?" What did Cao Zirong say? ”

"It's too much, but we can't give it." Nanlou told Lou Ban all the things that Cao Shuo begged for.

Stunned for a long time, Lou Ban asked, "They still need women?" ”

"Yes!" Nanlou said: "He wants 60,000 women. ”

"There are 60,000 fewer women, who will give birth to children after our Wuhuan family?" Lou Ban said: "This condition can never be agreed to......"

"Big Order!" Nanlou said: "If you don't agree, I'm afraid we Wuhuan won't even have men." ”

"Didn't the Cao family promise that they wouldn't embarrass the Wuhuan people?" Lou Ban asked in amazement.

"The Cao family promised, and the military order was indeed issued." Nanlou said: "But Cao Zirong also said that if we don't agree, I'm afraid that the soldiers of the Cao family will mutiny." Once the Cao army mutinies, we Wuhuan people will suffer. You must know that there are more than 60,000 women in Liucheng. ”

"In other words, we have to say yes?" Lou Ban asked.

"Yes." Nanlou replied: "Judging from Cao Zirong's attitude of speaking, we have to agree. ”

Sitting down, Lou Ban said: "Sixty thousand women, and countless cattle, sheep and horses......"

"Who wants us to lose?" Nanlou said: "Those who are defeated have their lives in the hands of others, not to mention cattle, sheep and women." ”

"Can't he miss it?" Looking up at the difficult building, Lou Ban said: "This is also ...... Too much......"

"I also want him to ask for less, but Cao Zirong won't let go." Nanlou said: "Looking at his posture, the more we think about it, the more he wants more, it's better to give it to him now." ”

"Do you want me to talk to him personally?" Lou Ban asked.

"It's better not to go to Dadanyu." Nanlou said: "We have also heard of Cao Zirong's reputation, and he will always get what he wants. Even if Da Dan Yu goes, I'm afraid there is no emotion, but it will break our Wuhuan's momentum. ”

Nanlou's answer made Lou Ban completely desperate.

He didn't hate Cao Shuo at this time, but scolded him thousands of times in his heart.

If it wasn't for the Wuhuan people to find trouble, how could they provoke the Cao family?

If he hadn't provoked the Cao family, how could Cao Shuo open his mouth to them?
