When Bo Yao heard this, his heart moved, and he said in his heart: Now Yang Zilu is powerful, since he wants to seek peace, then sell him a favor, if Yang Zilu gains power in the future, he will also have a good relationship with him, and he will have something to rely on in the future.

So Bo Yao said: "Great king, it is better for the ministers to ask for peace!" Now keep fighting, the victory or defeat is unpredictable! Although Yang Zilu will inevitably ask for a huge ransom, with the national strength of my Wu State, I will be able to recover from the previous trend after a few years of recuperation! Why bother with the Han barbarians? ”

Wang Sunyu also felt that the outcome of this war was unpredictable, and he also persuaded: "Wang, what Bo Yao said, the minister also feels reasonable, and now the Han army boat division on the Yangtze River is stronger than our army. Just crossing the river is enough for us to be poor! Not to mention how to capture the continuous city fortress after crossing the river and gain a foothold on the south bank! ”

Wang Sunluo didn't know that Yang Zilu's boat masters were actually half a bucket of water, and the really well-trained ones were only about ten warships, and the others were temporarily recruited from the fishermen of the Yue Kingdom, after only two months of training. The patrol is decent, but if it really starts, it must be in a hurry, and when the time comes, the warship will not know where it is going, and it is not surprising that it will also knock over its own warship.

I have to say that Yang Zilu's smoke bomb was very good, which made Fucha and Wang Sunluo startled, and they all believed what they saw on the surface. Seeing that the two henchmen under his command had said so, the husband nodded and said, "What you two said makes sense, come and summon that Zigong!" ”

Wang Sunluo hurriedly stopped and said, "King, please wait a moment!" ”

The husband couldn't help but look sideways at Wang Sunluo in confusion and asked, "What?" Didn't the doctor propose to make peace? ”

Wang Sun Yu shook his head and said, "King, you don't understand! On the one hand, negotiation is about strength, but it is also about skill. If we summon Zigong at once, wouldn't we tell the other party that we urgently need peace. The other party is ransom, and it is naturally a lion who opens his mouth, but if we delay for a while, it will give Zigong a feeling that we are very reluctant. In terms of offer, naturally I don't dare to exaggerate too much! ”

When the husband heard this, he nodded and said: "What the doctor said is very true, if it weren't for the doctor's reminder, the widow would have almost missed a major event, so it would be better to leave it to the doctor at this time!" ”

Wang Sun Yu shook his head and said, "At this time, where do you dare to call the shots?" ”

Fucha knows his own business, and compared to cunning, it seems that Zigong's guy is a little taller than himself. I was afraid that I would be cheated by this guy Zigong one more time, so the husband shook his head very firmly and said, "How can the doctor not be the master?" Yang Zilu also sent a doctor, wouldn't the widow personally receive him and lose his identity, and the widow will see the doctor come out! ”

Wang Sun Luo saw that what his husband said made sense, so he reluctantly said: "Okay! But in big matters, it's still up to the king! The minister did not dare to overstep his authority! ”

"That's natural!" Fucha smiled and said, even if Wang Sunda dares to ask for this right, Fucha will not give it yet!

Next, the husband ordered the army to set up camp and concentrate on military affairs. And Wang Sunluo was originally going to hang Zigong Sanyu and said that they would meet at this time. Helplessly, they had an internal annihilation Bo Ya, Zigong just secretly sent someone to contact Bo Yao, and Wang Sun Yu's thoughts Zigong knew it completely. So for two days in a row, Zigong didn't pull down the food he should eat, sleep when he should sleep, and drink and enjoy the fun, as if it was not enough to make peace.

Wang Sunluo saw that his spending plan was ineffective, and he didn't waste time, after all, there was not much food in Wu now.

Zigong received someone sent by Wang Sun Yu to invite him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help showing a touch of triumph, but he quickly hidden. Zigong waved his hand to the soldiers sent by Wang Sun Yu and said: "You go back and tell your doctor that Zigong has had something wrong with his feet in the past two days and can't go too far, so please come over and talk!" ”

When Wang Sun Yu heard this, he immediately became angry, Zigong had a problem with his feet. That was to force himself to go to his tent, so that Zigong suppressed his momentum, and also occupied the 'geographical advantage', when negotiating, he was afraid that he would be crushed by Zigong.

How could Wang Sun Yu be willing? But after an hour, Wang Sunluo had to admit that Zigong's strategy was successful. Because if you continue to drag it out, it will be impossible for you to win Zigong, so it is better to let Zigong take advantage of this. Wang Sun Yu came to Zigong, the corners of his mouth were pulled down, revealing a smile that was not smiling, and he arched his hand towards Zigong and said, "Mr. Zigong is really leisurely!" ”

"It's ok! It's OK! Zigong glanced at Wang Sun with a smile, made a gesture of please, and said: "Doctor Wang Sun, please sit, I don't know why Dr. Wang Sun came to find Zigong?" ”

Wang Sunluo also cleaned up his mentality this time, and sat down and said: "I heard that the old master said such a sentence, the gentleman is frank, and the villain is a relative. I think this is too right! It's not nonsense, this time it's for peace! I don't know what the man's condition is? ”

Zigong originally wanted to go around in a big circle with the other party and force him to say it himself, but he didn't expect Wang Sunluo to be so free and easy, and he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, knowing that the opponent was not easy to deal with.

Although Zigong's face was still calm, a solemnity flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Since the doctor is so refreshing, Zigong will not talk nonsense." My lord demanded a lot of ransom, a total of 100,000 slaves! 5,000 pieces of silk and linen, 3,000,000 pieces of money, 2,000 pieces of armor, 5,000 pieces of spears, swords, and 5,000 pieces of beryllium, and 5,000 horses! ”

When Wang Sunluo heard this, he couldn't help but be frightened by Yang Zilu's big breath, and there was nothing in silk and linen, which was worth about 1.2 or 300 million yuan. Three million dollars is acceptable, but weapons and slaves, this makes Wang Sunlu dare not agree, with these weapons, Yang Zilu can form an army of at least 10,000 people. On the other hand, Wu Guoshao formed an army of at least 10,000 people. In a certain sense, Wu is equivalent to the loss of 20,000 people, and it is the least, if Yang Zilu forms light infantry, he can form 15,000 people.

Wang Sunluo didn't dare to agree, so he found an excuse and said: "I just remembered that there is an important military matter that has not yet been done, and this ransom matter, I will go back and think about it and reply to Mr. Zigong!" Farewell! ”

Wang Sunyu said goodbye and left immediately. Zigong didn't keep it, but just said politely: "Go slowly!" ”

Regarding Wang Sunju's reaction, Zigong had already thought of it, how could Wang Sunda dare to agree to such a big thing? On the contrary, if Wang Sun Yu thought for a moment and agreed, Zigong would still think that there must be fraud in this.

Let's say that Wang Sun Yu got out of the tent where Zigong lived, and immediately went to see his husband. The meeting with Zigong was told one by one.

After hearing the ransom of Zigong, the husband immediately slapped the low table in front of him angrily, "Smack! "There was a loud bang." It's really a tiger falling in Pingyang and being bullied by dogs! Yang Zilu dared to blackmail the widow! ”

"Your Majesty, do you mean not to agree?" Wang Sunluo looked at his husband's face and asked slowly in a tentative tone.

"Of course!" The husband said angrily.

Wang Sun Yu frowned and said, "Then do you need the minister to return to Zigong?" ”

The husband was still a little sensible, shook his head and said, "That's it, you go and negotiate with Zigong!" At this price, it is impossible for the widow to accept it anyway, but it is okay to lower it a little! Especially in terms of slaves and weapons, it's just a little more Yang Zilu for others! ”

Speaking of this, the husband gritted his teeth and said: "He said that the widow will definitely want Yang Zilu ten times and a hundred times more!" ”

When Wang Sunyu heard this, he nodded thoughtfully.

The next day, he went to Zigong and pressed the price of the ransom to about half of what Zigong proposed, especially the weapons and war horses, which were all reduced to only hundreds. On the contrary, the cloth and money remain the same.

Zigong naturally couldn't agree, and in the end, after some verbal arguments, the slaves and the cloth and money ransom were negotiated, and the slaves were 70,000. These 70,000 people were all obtained from the battle between Wu and Qi, in fact, Yang Zilu's so-called 100,000 slaves were the idea of beating these 70,000 people. Otherwise, for a time, the husband sent the slaves to find a hundred thousand slaves. Both cloth and money remain the same. Probably Wang Sunyu thought that in exchange for Zigong's concessions in weapons and war horses.

However, Zigong obviously disappointed Wang Sun, and Zigong did not give in. And Wang Sunluo was also a little annoyed and angry, insisting on the price he proposed, and both sides fell into an impasse in negotiations. Zigong was only willing to reduce the number of weapons to four thousand, and the number of war horses was raised to six thousand, and the concession was small. And Wang Sunluo also bit weapons and war horses to death on the number of one thousand.

It wasn't until ten days later that Wu's food became scarce, and Wang Sunluo had to make concessions, after a day of verbal warfare. In the end, the two sides decided to pay a ransom for weapons and horses, 3,000 pieces of armor, spears, beryllium, and swords, and 5,000 horses. However, Wang Sunluo did not simply make concessions, he also asked Yang Zilu to give Wu Jun 10,000 stone of grain as a condition for his concessions.

Although Zigong felt that he could agree, he still passed on the condition of Wang Sunyu to Yang Zilu, and Yang Zilu thought for a moment and agreed. Although 10,000 stone of grain is a lot, it is enough for the normal needs of an army of 100,000.

Judging from the current situation of the Wu army, they have mobilized almost 90,000 soldiers and horses. Even if they were to save food, it would be a big deal to give them three days of food, and Yang Zilu didn't believe that this would affect the battle situation. However, Yang Zilu was not stupid, and asked Wu Jun to pay a part of the ransom first. lest you be pitted by Wang Sunluo, then you really want to cry without tears.

The husband is now short of food, and he readily agreed. And Fucha did not play conspiracy and trickery on the matter of food, which made Yang Zilu secretly relieved in his heart, which also showed that Fucha was sincere in seeking peace this time, and if he really fought, Yang Zilu was not Fucha's opponent.
