Chapter 264: Zu Mao came to the door

What is Zu Mao doing here? When Zhou Jian heard Zu Mao's request to see him, his little heart who had just finished doing something bad was taken aback, could it be that Zu Mao found something and asked him about his master? Zhou Jian's heart flashed ten thousand times at once, but he quickly calmed down, and after nodding to General Liu, he let Zu Mao in.

Zu Mao, who was waiting outside the door, heard that Zhou Jian asked him to go in to meet, so he was about to walk in, but he didn't expect that he would meet the commander of Zhou Jian's guards who he had never put in his heart.

Seeing Zu Mao, General Liu stepped forward with a smile on his face, and his flattering intention was fully revealed, "The last general has seen General Zu." ”

Zu Mao was anxious to see Zhou Jian, and only nodded reluctantly to General Liu's greeting, without saying anything, he walked past General Liu, pushed the door and entered Zhou Jian's room.

"Phew! What is it! I still look down on the general! ”

General Liu was very dissatisfied with Zu Mao's neglect of him, and spat on the ground fiercely, his smile disappeared, and only resentment was left on his face.

"Damn, when Lao Tzu masters the new army, I will slowly clean up your house!" After whispering a cruel word, General Liu left, instead of expressing resentment here, he wanted to do what Zhou Jian handed him over, as long as he became the commander of the new army, see who would dare to look down on him!

"The last general Zumao has seen my lord!" Zu Mao, who walked in, gave Zhou Jian a salute.

"General Zu, please get up! Don't be polite, what do you have to see this official? ”

Although Zhou Jian didn't know Zu Mao's intentions, Zhou Jian was already familiar with the etiquette of the lord, and his current appearance was very approachable, and he couldn't see any dissatisfaction with Zu Mao at all.

"My lord, the last general came today to tell your lord that in three days, the defenders of Wancheng will be running out of food, so the last general asks your lord to raise food and grass for the soldiers." Zu Mao's face was a little anxious, who could not panic when any leading general encountered the army's lack of food?

Short on food? Asking for food? Zhou Jian never thought that Zu Mao would come for this matter!

"This ...... General Zu, the grain and grass of the Jiangdong Army probably don't belong to Nanyang County, right? If you are short of food, you should ask Jiangdong for it? There is no surplus food here for the Jiangdong Army. Zhou Jian's face was embarrassed, not only because there was no grain and grass in Nanyang now, but also because even if he had grain and grass, how could he give it to the Jiangdong Army, he wished that the Jiangdong Army would starve to death!

"My lord, how come Nanyang has no surplus food? What should the 10,000 Wancheng defenders do? You can't let them go hungry to defend the city, can you? Zhou Jian had this remark, Zu Mao had already expected it in his heart, he deliberately did not mention the Jiangdong Army, because they were not the Jiangdong Army now, but the Nanyang Defenders! It's the Nanyang defenders, and Zhou Jian, the Taishou, must raise grain and grass for them!

"This problem, although the officer is also worried that the soldiers will have no food, but I'm afraid that General Zu will solve it yourself, now the front line is tight, and the grain in Nanyang has been sent to the front line, and the officer really has no choice!" Zhou Jian continued to refuse politely, how could he find his head without food, this Jiangdong Army was not his person, why did he give Jiangdong Army food?

"General Zu, besides, the land of Jiangdong is so rich, I'm afraid it's easy to raise 10,000 people for grain and grass, right?" Zhou Jian smiled, Jiangdong Army had no food and grass, so he asked Jiangdong himself to ask him to be this wronged boss, which was impossible!

Zhou Jian's refusal is something that Zu Mao can think of, if he doesn't give food, he will never give up today, and the 10,000 soldiers in Jiangdong can't bear it!

"Lord Zhou!" Zu Mao's tone aggravated, "Lord Zhou, you have to remember that now they are no longer the Jiangdong Army, they are now the defenders of Nanyang, since they are guarding Nanyang, then Nanyang must provide them with food and grass, otherwise how can they defend Nanyang?" Please think clearly! If he doesn't give food, he can't guarantee what his soldiers will do! ”

"Zu Mao, you dare to threaten this official!" Hearing Zu Mao's threatening words, Zhou Jian's calm was completely gone, since Zu Mao had already torn his face, why was he pretending?

"Threats? No, no, Lord Zhou, how dare the last general threaten you? The last general is just telling the truth! "Zu Mao's face has not changed, it is you who threatens you! Zhou Jian didn't give food, they had every excuse to get rid of Zhou Jian, even if the world knew, they would only applaud Jiang Dongjun, and the people who worked hard for him Zhou Jian couldn't get food and grass, and the people of the world would spit on it!

"You! Zumao, you! Compared to Zu Mao's face as usual, how ugly and ugly Zhou Jian's face is now, he didn't expect that Jiangdongjun would suddenly attack him, he knew very well that if he turned his face with Jiangdongjun now, he didn't have any chance of winning, and it was very likely that Jiangdongjun would take this opportunity to kill him!

Thinking about it several times, his face turned black and red, and finally Zhou Jian often breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that he must not turn his face with Jiangdongjun now, since this is the case, then he can only give food to stabilize them first! Thinking of this, Zhou Jian had a plan in his heart.

"Hehe, General Zu, what are you talking about! The Jiangdong soldiers have paid so much for Nanyang, how can this officer make them hungry! In this way, how about this official let all the granaries get together and gather the grain and grass for the Jiangdong Army for ten days? After finishing speaking, seeing that Zu Mao did not react, Zhou Jian hurriedly explained: "General Zu, you are also clear about the situation in Nanyang, all the grain and grass have been sent to the front line, and the official can only provide you with food and grass for ten days at most, and there is nothing that can be done by the more officials!" ”

Ten days of grass? Zhou Jian, this is simply calling Hanako! He still didn't believe it, a huge Nanyang County couldn't afford to supply only 10,000 horses, Zu Mao knew that Zhou Jian definitely hid a lot of food!

"Lord Zhou! How can ten days of bread and grass be? What are we going to do after 10 days? "Zu Mao made it clear that he didn't approve of it, just ten days of grain and grass, this week Jane is really stingy!

"General Zu, you also have to be considerate of the difficulties of this official, it is true that there is only these grains and grasses, and you can ask Jiangdong for food in the past ten days! This official still doesn't believe it, your Jiangdong Army is a soldier of Jiangdong, and they won't send you food? "Having said so much, Zhou Jian still wants the Jiangdong Army to be self-sufficient, and he has done his best to give the ten days of food and grass!

"Humph! Lord Zhou, do you want to remind you again? They are now not the Jiangdong Army, but the Nanyang Defenders! Since they are the defenders of Nanyang, how can the land of Jiangdong be responsible for their grain and grass? The meaning of Zu Mao's words is to tell Zhou Jian to die, and want Jiangdong to be in charge of grain and grass, and to have his spring and autumn dreams!

Seeing Zu Mao being so unreasonable, Zhou Jian was so angry that he didn't want to speak anymore, this was already his bottom line!

Zuma still wanted to ** Zhou Jian again, but thinking that Sun Yang told him that he couldn't push Zhou Jian too hard, he could only stop in moderation.

"Ten days is ten days, Lord Zhou, I will see grain and grass the day after tomorrow!" Zu Mao took a step back.

"Don't worry, the grass will be delivered!"

Zhou Jian saw that Zu Mao had regressed, and agreed to send the grain and grass to the ...... the day after tomorrow
