The power of the ten cannons directly shocked Knight and Chen Jiaming, and Ye Shaolong didn't dare to fire another cannon, and sent a carrot to a mallet, and he didn't want the two sides to really go to war. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

His artillery siege is definitely a sharp weapon, but once the two sides fight, it is useless, or it is not very useful, and the effect is not obvious.

Therefore, Ye Shaolong, the order of the second cannon, did not give it again, but came to the city wall again, and looked coldly at Knight and Chen Jiaming on the city tower.

The latter's face changed uncertainly, and Ye Shaolong's purpose was very simple, that is, to let them go. But Chen Jiaming was afraid but unwilling.

In the end, it was Knight who spoke first: "Lord Ye, we promise to let people go, but you have to take money to ransom you." ”

Ye Shaolong sneered: "It is your freedom to let people go or not, as for taking money to redeem it, it is not negotiable." Either you let people go and I withdraw my troops, or everyone will do it. ”

Chen Jiaming was infected by Ye Shaolong's resoluteness, and roared: "Ye Shaolong, don't push too much, if you really push me into a hurry, what about a fight?" When the time comes, I'll kill all the people you want first, and then either you die or I die. ”

Ye Shaolong knew that Chen Jiaming's words were mostly intimidating, but it was not ruled out that he could really do it. After a little hesitation, he made a small concession: "Then let's talk about how much money you need to let everyone go." ”

Knight and Chen Jiaming on the city tower finally saw Ye Shaolong give in, and while they were relieved, they were also very embarrassed about how much they should offer.

"Mr. Knight, how much do you think we should have?" Chen Jiaming, who couldn't make up his mind, asked Knight directly.

Knight raised his eyes and looked at Ye Shaolong and the army of the beggar gang, and finally his eyes stayed on the ten cannons, and suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "Just ask for those ten cannons." ”

Chen Jiaming was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about it, his eyes lit up, and then he agreed: "Yes, we want those cannons!" ”

After the two discussed, Chen Jiaming proposed conditions to Ye Shaolong. Of course, Chen Jiaming's tone was very tactful.

Ye Shaolong really didn't expect that they would actually ask for a cannon. To put it bluntly, this thing is not very mature, that is, a semi-finished product that was poured out in a hurry, which looks very powerful, but there are still a lot of drawbacks.

The worst thing is that the reloading time is too cumbersome and long, which does not have much room to play in real warfare.

Although Ye Shaolong was willing to exchange cannons for hostages in his heart, he would not show the joy in his heart, and pretended to be very embarrassed and thought about it for a long time, before gritting his teeth and agreeing.

Chen Jiaming didn't play any tricks this time, in order to show his sincerity, he and Knight discussed a little, and then released those merchant clansmen who had no use value on the spot.

And the follow-up hostages, three days later, will still be under the north city, handing over people with one hand and cannons with the other.

Ye Shaolong also expressed his satisfaction, and for the sake of sincerity, he also cleared the garrison of the army to a few miles away. At this point, the two sides temporarily ceased fighting.

At the moment, the happiest touched the Li family and those rich merchants, who were busy looking for their own people among the rescued hostages.

Li Tianying also got his wish to find all the clansmen who were arrested in the provincial capital, and these captured clansmen did not suffer any harm except for their sluggish expressions.

Let Li Tianying not only rejoice, but also be grateful to Ye Shaolong for this move. After this incident, he Li Tianying became a member of the clan, and the position of the patriarch was also stable. The Li family also affirmed his ability to do things.

In the tent of the commander of the Chinese army, Li Tianying hurried to see Ye Shaolong with a generous gift after he was busy with the affairs of the clansmen. The fact that Ye Shaolong and Su Can partnered to trap weapons before, he would have forgotten about it for a long time.

Li Tianying, who was full of smiles, thanked Ye Shaolong and said, "Brother Ye, this time my brother owes you a big favor. Whenever you need the Li family in the future, just ask, I, Li Tianying, will do my best. Also, this is a little gift from our Li family to express our gratitude, and I hope that Brother Ye will not refuse. ”

Then, Li Tianying smiled and presented the list in his hand, Ye Shaolong pretended to be polite and refused slightly, then accepted it, and said with a laugh in his mouth: "Brother Li is too polite, since you said that we are brothers, why are you still so outside." ”

"If you want it, your brother will settle the account, not to mention that the brother will spend a lot of money when the army comes this time. If it weren't for the fact that my Li family happened to suffer from this calamity, I wouldn't have just taken out this little thing to repay. Thinking of this way by the Bright Sect and foreigners this time, Li Tianying was still angry in his heart.

Now that the provincial capital is completely under the control of the Bright Sect and the foreigners, the Li family can no longer be as beautiful as before. Even the provincial capital can't go back, but fortunately, the scale of Lijia Village is not small now. Self-sufficiency, there is no problem for the Li family to settle down.

Moreover, many of the wealthy businessmen who escaped will stay, and the growth of Lijia Village is just around the corner. It's a pity that the two tigers in the provincial city are a few feet closer, and the Li family still lacks the ability to protect themselves.

Therefore, Li Tianying will give a generous gift in a hurry, naturally he has other plans.

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief, this point, Ye Shaolong has had suspicions since Li Tianying sent a generous gift. So he took the big gift just now with peace of mind, without the slightest burden in his heart.

"Brother Li is too polite, I still understand the rules, if Brother Li needs any help, please speak up." Ye Shaolong didn't beat around the bush anymore, and nodded with a smile.

Li Tianying laughed out loud, he liked Ye Shaolong to be like this, and he could understand everything with just one click.

"Here's the thing, presumably Brother Ye won't fight with that Bright Sect anymore. Brother Ye will also evacuate soon, you know, our Lijia Village is near this provincial capital, there are tigers sleeping soundly next to us, and we are not safe. Therefore, I want to ask Brother Ye to help the eldest brother and leave some people to be the guards of Lijia Village, I don't know if it's okay? ”

"Big brother turned out to be ...... for this." Ye Shaolong frowned slightly.

When Li Tianying saw Ye Shaolong hesitating, he immediately became anxious: "Is there anything embarrassing about Brother Ye?" ”

"Actually, don't hide it from my eldest brother, this army is a beggar gang disciple, and they were also invited by me to come to help. If they want to stay, it's not for me to make up my mind. ”

"Brother Ye means ......" Li Tianying was quite nervous.

Ye Shaolong smiled, relieved the tense atmosphere and said, "In fact, you should go to Brother Su and tell Brother Su that he is the leader of the beggar gang." ”
