Chapter 69 Relationship (Part 3)
"Shut up."
"Manager Zhu has to sow discord again, and a certain family will not fall for you."
"Manager Zhu, falling into the well, is not a gentleman's doing."
Hearing Zhu Chongjiu mention his wife and children, Xue Xue finally couldn't support it anymore, her hands were on the stone table, and a series of desperate roars came out of her mouth.
It is true that Zhu Chongjiu is a foreign race, and Totoku is his compatriot, but after Zhu Chongjiu, a foreign race, defeated him, he never thought of killing him all, and Totoku, once he won in the political struggle, would never give him any mercy.
This is a tradition inherited from the time of Genghis Khan, killing all enemies, even if he is only a child, and the sin is less than that of his wife and children, which is the rule of the cowardly Han Chinese, as conquerors, the descendants of Temujin only like to sing next to the corpses of their opponents.
"If it's to fall into the well, Zhu doesn't have to spend so much time at all." When she was in pain, Zhu Chongjiu's voice came from Xue Xuexue's ears, as cold as the devil breathing in the depths of hell, "As far as Zhu knows, all the soldiers and horses under your command now add up to less than 5,000, and if you live by robbing the surrounding people and hunting, it seems that there are few bows and arrows." ā
If the other party has not fallen to the point of rolling on the snow, he will simply find a way to demolish his house and press him into the snowdrift
Although he has been an otaku for two lives, in the past two years, watching how Lu Luzeng, Zhao Junyong and others set traps on people, watching how Chen Ji, Ye Dexin and others strategize, and being taught by Mr. Su from time to time, Zhu Chongjiu's heart has already been ground into an embroidery needle even if it is a stubborn iron, not to mention that part of the soul from the twenty-first century has not been less influenced by the study of thick black, and after throwing it out with a few words, it immediately broke the last line of defense in Xue Xue's heart.
Lying on the cold stone table, the latter gasped and said: "You, what the hell do you want to do, let, let this official rebel with you, that, that's, it's absolutely impossible." ā
"Your family is in the capital, isn't it difficult for you to rebel." Knowing that the heat was almost over, Zhu Chongjiu shook his head with a smile, "Besides, those soldiers under your command are also the sons of nobles in the capital, even if you promise to rebel with Zhu Moudao, they will not agree, if you don't get it right, they will directly cut off your head and go to the court to ask for merit." ā
This is an obvious fact, the combat effectiveness of the forbidden army has been proved not worth mentioning, but the loyalty of the forbidden army to the imperial court is unquestionable, after all, they are all sons and nephews of top Mongolian families, even if they are sideline, they are also in solidarity with the imperial court, and it is impossible to risk the whole family being dragged down to rebel with Xuexue.
"You, you, they, they, they" stared at Zhu Chongjiu with two eyes, Xue Xue spoke incoherently, the person opposite was the devil, he shouldn't have agreed to meet at all, and he made a deal with the devil, how could mortals make any gains.
However, the words that came out of the devil's mouth were full of temptation, "Tokhtar sent people to blow up the Yellow River and kill millions of my innocent people, so this manager and him don't share the sky, but this manager and you Xuexue are their own masters, of course, they show no mercy to each other on the battlefield, but they can still be friends under the battlefield." ā
"Friends." Xue Xue muttered and repeated, there is nothing lacking in this life, but there are no friends, for people like him, friendship is an absolute luxury, and it will always be out of reach.
"Oh, Zhu forgot that you are a high-ranking official in the imperial court, and you can't have a relationship with Zhu Moujie." Zhu Chongjiu smiled and apologized, "Then let's put it another way, Zhu thinks that the two of us have neither a blood feud nor a direct conflict of interest, but Totok is the common enemy of the two of us at the moment, and it will be good for both of us to get rid of him." ā
"A certain family will not agree to you to attack Tokhov together, that is actually no different from rebellion." Although she has lost so much that she even takes off her underwear, Xue Xue's temperament is very stubborn, and she believes that she would rather kill her whole family than rebel.
"Your remnants of the defeated army, do you have any chance of winning against Totok?" Zhu Chongjiu didn't force him, but pouted lightly with disdain, "It's not that Zhu looks down on you, even if you have an army of 200,000 in your hands, you will still be beaten to the ground by Tokto." ā
"You" Xue Xue was unwilling to suffer such a great humiliation, and he wanted to brush his sleeves away with his hands to support his body, but after only a short moment, he was deflated again, and the whole person fell to sit on the stone bench, paralyzed as mud.
It's not that Zhu Butcher is disrespectful, but the gap between him and Tokh is too big, with nearly 40,000 soldiers and horses to defend the fortified city, but he didn't survive a day, so he took the initiative to flee for his life, and Toto, since his debut, has not tasted a defeat, including this time he was forced to give up Huai'an and return to the north, but also dragged down by King Yi's slave purchase, and it is not a crime of war.
"Your battlefield should be in the court, not here." Continued to pour himself a cup of tea, Zhu Chongjiu drank it, while analyzing seriously, "Your mother is the nurse of Tuhuan Timur, although you and Tuhuan Timur are not brothers, but they are like brothers, the contradiction between you and Tokhtar is clear, but it is just a conflict between the monarchy and the relative power, Tuhuan Timur has suffered a lot from the ministers, and he doesn't want to watch Tokhtar continue to lean into the government and the opposition, and you two brothers are undoubtedly his most trustworthy people." ā
"Don't talk about it." Xue Xue struggled to sit up straight, stared at Zhu Chongjiu with bloodshot eyes, and let out a low roar from her mouth, "What's the use of you saying these now, Jinan City has fallen into your hands, a certain family has betrayed the trust of His Majesty, and when Tofu defeats you, he just happens to return to the court with the mighty master of the great victory, and at that time, even the emperor will not be able to say half a good word for a certain family." ā
Hate, at this moment, his heart is full of hatred, hatred for his incompetence, hatred for the injustice of fate, hatred for Zhu Butcher is too insidious, hatred for being too domineering, too unreasonable, if there is a torch in his hand, he would rather set the whole world on fire and let all sins be wiped out in the flames, including his soul and body.
"If I let you defeat it, Jinan City will also let you recover it." Zhu Chongjiu took another sip of tea and lightly mentioned yƬ.
"It can't be." Xue Xue shouted, and then, the whole person froze at the table, and her body involuntarily trembled wildly.
Impossible, with 5,000 remnants defeated, he could not recover Jinan, but the key lies in the word "let", if Zhu Tuhu is willing to "let" himself to defeat it, how can he have a reason not to win, let, you are willing to let it, it is said that it is 5,000 remnants, that is, there are only 50 guards left, and he can still create a miracle.
This is too crazy, it's just crazy that no one can believe, this Zhu butcher, in order to kill Totok, actually did not hesitate to pay any price, he, is his words true, he, in addition to the life he wants to get rid of, what evil intentions are he harboring.
Xue Xue couldn't guess, he only knew that once Jinan was successfully recovered by himself, his guilt would be reduced by half, and the matter entrusted by Tuhuan Timur might continue, and he would also suffer a loss at the hands of Zhu Butcher, and he would not be qualified to impeach himself.
After trembling for half a column of incense, Xue Xue finally returned to normal, grabbed the tea that had already been cold on the table, swallowed it in one gulp, and after drinking, wiped a few handfuls next to her mouth with her hand, and asked with her neck, "Say, what conditions do you need, as long as a certain family can afford it, and will not be sorry for the emperor, a certain family can give it to you." ā
"It will take me three days, three days, to empty the treasury of Jinan City and transport it to Laizhou by water." Zhu Chongjiu smiled and responded slowly, "In the past three days, you can fight hard, pretend to be determined to take revenge, and then take advantage of the emptiness of my troops to recover Jinan on the morning of the fourth day." ā
"Mr. Zhu is in charge of a lot of money." Xue Xue pursed his lips, grabbed the teapot, and poured water for himself to quench his thirst, at this time, he no longer had to worry about Zhu Butcher poisoning the tea, anyway, it was all a death, and it didn't make much difference how he died.
"Jinan is a big city, I need a million copper coins, or the equivalent of war horses, medicinal herbs, and other things you can get out." Zhu Chongjiu didn't care how he reacted, just continued to put forward his own trading conditions.
"Why don't you go and grab it." Xue Xue slapped the table hard and stood up, "If I count all my family property, I can't make up 200,000 yuan, and they are all in the capital, so it is impossible to give it to you immediately." ā
"I was originally robbing, if I didn't redeem Jinan, your family's 200,000 yuan would go to someone else sooner or later." Zhu Chongjiu replied with a smile, and then continued to add, "However, I also know that you have difficulties, so let's do it, I will allow you to make an IOU, you don't have to write anything, just write it clearly and owe me a million yuan, just sign and draw it, four days later, you send someone to send the IOU from the west gate, I will immediately give up Jinan and go out of the city from the east gate." ā
"This." Xue Xue's forehead was full of beads of sweat, but he didn't bother to wipe it at all, if possible, he was unwilling to let anything literal fall into the hands of Zhu Butcher, because no matter what was written on the paper, as long as Zhu Butcher handed it over to the imperial court, the effect would be no different from Tou Cheng.
However, the huge temptation of "recovering Jinan" made him unable to refuse at all, and all the family property under his name could not make up a million, but this money, after returning to the capital, he could borrow from his brother, with his clansmen, and his subordinates, and even without having to repay a million at all, as long as he could stabilize the Zhu butcher for a period of time, and after the fight was broken, he could turn his face and deny it. I don't want to get to the bottom of it.
Thinking of this, Xue Xue gritted her teeth and nodded vigorously, "Yes, a certain family can write to you now, isn't it just a million yuan, a certain family can always make it up if you find a way." ā
"Don't worry, you can think about it for a while, so as not to regret it in the future." Zhu Chongjiu waved his hand and responded very considerately, and then, he took a few sips of tea slowly and methodically, and continued to add, "One million guan is just the beginning, it shows that you and I have the sincerity to cooperate, just to recapture Jinan City, I'm afraid it won't be able to get you off the hook, at least, the limelight still can't be suppressed." ā
"What else do you want to do?" Xue Xue immediately became vigilant, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and asked with a gasp.
"I want to deal with Tokhtar with you." Zhu Chongjiu reiterated with a smile, "Banyang, Yidu, Weizhou and Zhucheng, if you want it, if you want it, we can discuss the price, and we can talk about it one by one." ā
Boom, as if being struck by thunder, Xue Xue jumped up, dizzy, recovering Jinan, not enough to atone the credit, plus Banyang must be enough, if you add several other cities that were lost by King Yi's slaves, his Xue Xue's merits and limelight, no one will be able to stand out, including the name of Baisheng, this time to the south, there is no recovery of so many cities.
However, Zhu Butcher is not a benevolent person, although he is known as the reincarnation of Maitreya Buddha, he gave up so many cities in one go, and the ransom fee required will definitely not be too small, even if he is willing to be like Jinan, he allows himself to make IOUs, one day, so many autographed IOUs are taken out by him at the same time, and he is also at a loss.
"Zhu has limited troops in his hands, and he will definitely not be able to defend so many places at the same time, so it is better to cheapen his own people than to be taken back one by one." Zhu Chongjiu held the teacup and smiled all over his face, looking like a god looking down on all beings.
Xue Xue held the edge of the table with both hands again, her body slowly sank, and her heart slowly sank, she was already ready to write the first IOU, so she shouldn't care about the second one, and two and three, in fact, there is not much difference, more than three, any number is probably the same.
"In fact, you don't have to use money to do business, and other equivalents can do." Zhu Chongjiu was clearly sitting on the stone bench, but Xue Xue always felt that he was looking at himself condescendingly, and the words he said were not so much as building yƬ, but as orders, "Jinan, Banyang and Yidu, these three cities count money, you send an IOU, I will pay you back, the rest, the city is too small, it is too troublesome to calculate the money, you can exchange other things, such as the march route over there, the camp deployment, etc., as long as you sign and draw the charge, I can accept the real or fake." ā
"Don't you think about it." Xue Xue's body shook a few times, but she tried to regain her footing, "I am a Mongolian, and I will not collude with outsiders to harm my own people." ā
"You didn't harm them, you also know that I don't like to kill indiscriminately, every time I capture a captive, I usually let them go, even if it is an official, I only ask them to pay a ransom that fits their identity." As if he had long expected him to react like this, Zhu Chongjiu added with a smile, and his face, which was full of holy light, was actually sprinkled with holy light at this moment.
"I betrayed the military intelligence to you, and you took it to defeat Tokhtar, didn't kill my people or something." Xue Xue gritted her teeth with hatred, but she didn't have the courage to go away, the credit for recovering the east and west roads of the mountains was too great, so he couldn't let go at all, what was wrong was just that he couldn't face his heart.
Zhu Chongjiu does business, he has never been afraid of bargaining, listening to Xue Xue's words, he smiled again, and waved his hand gently, "Say that you don't know how to fight, you are still not convinced, if you win the battle, you must kill someone, this chief just wants to force him to withdraw on his own, and he doesn't want to kill anyone under him, and as long as he can't defeat this general manager, his position as prime minister will definitely not be kept, how to clean him up at that time depends on the meaning of you and Hama, if you can let him die without a place to be buried, after the news came, The manager doesn't mind returning the IOU to you, whether this deal will be done or not, you can make up your own mind, and I will wait for your reply in Jinan City tomorrow. ā
After that, he didn't give Xue Xue a chance to continue to hesitate, stood up, and walked away.
When he returned to Jinan City, the sun had already climbed to the middle of the sky again, and Zhang Yi, Feng Guoyong and others, who rushed over after hearing the news, surrounded him, and admonished him very uneasily, "The chief manager's decision today is really too risky, in case Xue Xue's conscience appears and refuses to agree to our request, and you clearly tell him that he has no intention of occupying this place for a long time, isn't it?"
"No matter what he chooses, let's continue to do ours." Zhu Chongjiu waved his arm vigorously and interrupted loudly, "You two came just in time, leave me to organize manpower, and move Jinan, Wu Liangmou, Fu Youde, and Yu Tingyu." āć
"The end will be." The three generals whose names were called out at the same time responded loudly.
"The three of you each point up your headquarters and attack down the Daqing River, Jiyang, Binzhou and Lijin, whether there are enemy troops in these three cities, within three days, they must all be in our hands."
"But you promise, let Xue Xue talk back tomorrow morning." Chen Ji was taken aback by Zhu Chongjiu's decisiveness, and cautiously reminded him beside him.
"I didn't say that I would wait stupidly in Jinan City, and I wouldn't do anything else." Zhu Chongjiu smiled and shrugged.
As soon as Jinan was broken, there was no reason to turn around and fight back against Xu Da, and instead of continuing to go north, no matter whether Xue Xue was willing to cooperate or not, he had to face him directly.
Even if it's 20,000 against 200,000.
Even if it's just passive defense, and fight and retreat,
