Chapter 624: The Last Time

And those children of the clan do not force people to redeem people, of course, they can't be used to exchange money, and the Sichuan army can only kill them, but I don't know if so many family members are dead, and those Jiangdong big families are uncomfortable.

And Jianye's facilities, coupled with so many children of the family, this is a big deal.

As for why Qiao Wushuang and Sun Shao were left, the reason given was that Qiao Wushuang didn't want to stay in Jiangdong, which was really far-fetched, but the real reason, the people in Jiangdong knew it, and this was also one of the conditions that they were difficult to accept.

Sun Shao, but Jiangdong's rightful heir.

The first, and most harsh, is that the Jiangdong Army must reduce the size of the naval army to no more than 30,000, and the naval army stationed at Poyang Lake must not exceed 20,000, and the remaining 10,000 Jiangdong can stay in Jianye to guard against Cao Cao's Shouchun.

In addition, the reduced Jiangdong Army and the inexhaustible ships were all compensated to the Sichuan Army that suffered "heavy" losses in this water war.

This is the most difficult thing for Jiangdong to accept, and it is even mandatory to require a weak alkali Jiangdong Navy, without the Jiangdong Navy, what defense waters will there be? Isn't that the door to Jiangdong wide open?

The Sichuan Army was originally stronger than the Jiangdong Army, and now it is going to capture half of the ships of the Jiangdong Army, isn't that an overwhelming advantage?

In the past, the 60,000 naval army, although it was less than the Sichuan army, at least it was not something that the Sichuan army could destroy in a while, so Lu Meng was able to hold out in the waters of Wulin for so long.

What if 130,000 vs. 30,000?

Lu Su, Gu Yong and the others didn't dare to think about it anymore.

When he received the peace letter, Jiangdong Wenwu felt that these conditions were really outrageous, so after analyzing the factors such as the grain and grass of the Sichuan army, he was sure that the Sichuan army was intimidating. Intimidating Koto with harsh conditions.

That's why Lu Su and Gu Yong planned to sit on the ground and repay the money. and even some conditions. The fourth one, as well as the cession of Chaisang, fell on deaf ears, and at most the hostages were redeemed.

But now? The Xuchang massacre made the children of the Jiangdong clan tremble, and they couldn't even sleep well at night, only feeling that the cold blades of the Sichuan army had reached their necks.

When the 200,000 army came to Jiangxia, as long as it was on Jianye, could Jiangdong resist? What to resist?

Lu Su Gu Yong only knew at this time. The Sichuan army is really not joking. But agreeing to these conditions, Lu Su and Gu Yong were completely unprepared.

"King Shu, Huang Junshi, we really want to agree to the conditions of the letter, but our ability is really insufficient, our grain treasury has bottomed out, and gold and silver are also stretched, even if we vacate the Jiangdong treasury, we can't take out so many things, let alone redeem people.

See if this will work, and lower the price of the ransom and the redemption of the construction facilities as appropriate. We are willing to give up Baqiu, Baling. Chibi is the coastal area of all western regions.

In addition, the navy will never expand its army, and compensate the Sichuan army for four fighting ships, ten building ships, fifty fast boats, and the gold, silver, grain and grass compensated for it, can it be reduced, our Jiangdong treasury is really empty. ”

Lu Su finally spoke, he really said these words, at this moment Lu Su also felt humiliated, if he did not withdraw from Jingzhou regardless of Zhou Yu, but captured Baichuan with Zhou Yu, according to Zhou Yu's idea, wouldn't it be much better to exchange half of Jingzhou for Jianye?

But there is no regret in the world about selling medicine, and even if Lu Su does it again, he will still do it, because in Lu Su's view, all measures in Jiangdong are to protect the interests of the world first. Jianye was captured, the children of the Shi clan were captured, and no matter what, they could not fight again.

"If Wei Wen hadn't captured Jianye, would Mr. Zijing and Zhou Yu take my Jingzhou, and if you beat us Jingzhou, your treasury wouldn't be empty, but now it will be empty? What a joke. ”

Huang Yueying sneered and said to Lu Su: "There is no room for negotiation in this negotiation, there is only two words, you can do it." ”

Huang Yueying's face was cold, her face was full of frost, Lu Su, Gu Yong and the others were embarrassed, and they couldn't advance or retreat.

After agreeing to the conditions of the Sichuan army, it is conceivable that the strength of Jiangdong will be weakened by at least half, which is not half of the official Jiangdong, but half of the entire Jiangdong, and the clan will have to hemorrhage.

But if they didn't agree to the conditions, the 200,000 troops of the Sichuan army were on the riverbank, and Lu Su, Gu Yong and others didn't think that the Sichuan army would not dare to attack, as long as they set foot on Jianye, then Jiangdong would be in turmoil.

If you agree, you will be greatly injured, and if you don't agree, you will be ruined in Jiangdong.

Lu Su, Gu Yong and the others were oozing blood in their hearts, but they gritted their teeth and couldn't say anything.

"Oops, Yueying." Liu Zhang scolded Huang Yueying, pointed at Lu Su and said, "Who is Mr. Zijing?" That's our old friend, when Jiangdong formed an alliance with the Sichuan army, Mr. Zijing made a big effort, this time people are here to re-align the alliance, can't you be polite when you speak? ”

As soon as Liu Zhang spoke, Lu Su, Gu Yong and others immediately showed hope, not that they thought that Liu Zhang was a good man and a woman, but that they knew that there was always room for bargaining when negotiating.

Liu Zhang said this, indicating that the price was going to be reduced, which was not a surprise to Lu Su and others, who originally thought that the Sichuan army would not back down at all.

Lu Su, Gu Yong, and Sun Quan all looked at Liu Zhang expectantly.

Liu Zhang said: "Oh, how can this king not know the difficulties of Jiangdong, Jiangdong is about to become our ally again, how can I, Liu Zhang, be indifferent to the difficulties of my allies."

In this way, since the treasury of Jiangdong is limited and money and food are scarce, then replace it with something else, women between the ages of eight and thirty are worth three taels of silver each, and women between the ages of thirty and forty-five are worth one to two taels of silver each.

Men between the ages of eight and thirty are four taels of silver, and men between the ages of thirty and fifty are worth five hundred dollars to one and a half taels of silver. ”

Liu Zhang looked at Lu Su for advice, Lu Su, Gu Yong and others were completely desperate, Liu Zhang and Huang Yueying really didn't have any room for bargaining.

"My lord, this is more than the market price." Huang Yueying said distressedly, this price is indeed higher than the price of ordinary human sales.

"It's okay, Zijing is a friend." Liu Zhang smiled, looked at Sun Quan quietly, and waited for Sun Quan's painting.

Lu Su's eyelids twitched, and he weighed it carefully, it can be said that he really fulfilled this contract, and Jiangdong couldn't recover it for five or even ten years, and the worst thing is. It is likely to become meat on the board of the Sichuan army.

You must know that now if the Sichuan army attacks. The clan can quickly raise an army of 100,000. Although it has no combat power, if it fights to the death, it may not be without a chance of winning, after all, the Sichuan army has been fighting for more than a year now, and the grain and grass are gone.

But once this contract is signed, the gold and silver will be compensated, the grain will be compensated, and the navy and ships will be sent. Chai Sang ceded out, so what is left in Jiangdong? It can be said that there is no power to fight back.

But what if you don't sign it? The 200,000 Sichuan army can immediately go south to Jianye, can Jiangdong really stop it?

On the one hand, he will be tortured to death later, and on the other hand, he will die immediately.

Lu Su thought for a long time, made eye contact with Gu Yong, and finally reluctantly decided to accept "torture to death", maybe after signing the contract, the Sichuan army will not attack, and the Jiangdong army will slowly recover its strength, although it is not the enemy of the Sichuan army. But isn't there still a Cao Cao in the north?

Three-legged, perhaps united with Cao Cao. Will you be able to keep Koto?

Seeing Sun Quan signing and drawing, Liu Zhang and Huang Yueying both smiled silently, Huang Yueying's goal was achieved.

At the beginning, Liu Zhang's main battle was to eliminate the scourge of Jiangdong, and never allow a troubled Jiangdong to exist, even if he finally got a piece of burdensome land.

But Huang Yueying felt that this could be solved through negotiation.

Therefore, if this negotiation fails, it will definitely be a war, and the Sichuan army will not let go of such a great opportunity, but it is undoubtedly much better to let the Jiangdong forces collapse by negotiation now than to send troops with the tired Sichuan army.

After the Sichuan army recupeserates, Jiangdong is a dish.

After Sun Quan Lu Su and Gu Yong finished drawing the charge, they immediately rushed to the big ship of the Sichuan army, and Liu Zhang shouted behind him: "Sun Zhongmou, what a hero Sun Bofu was back then." ”

Sun Quan's face turned red, paused, and finally got off the boat, Sun Shangxiang was taken away after Sun Quan, for this cheap wife, Liu Zhang didn't want it, not only hated himself to the bone, but also martial arts, slept with her, and didn't know how to die.

"Lord, high." Huang Yueying smiled at Liu Zhang.

Huang Yueying and Liu Zhang both saw that now Sun Quan's power had been greatly weakened, and the power of civilian officials such as Lu Su and Gu Yong had swelled, which was a good phenomenon for the Sichuan army.

But in order to make it more difficult for Jiangdong to recover, Liu Zhang said that sentence: "What a hero Sun Bofu was back then", this sentence was used to stimulate Sun Quan, Sun Ce was not blindly partial to relying on the family, relying on the generals under his command, as well as the majesty of his own force.

That's a kind of power.

However, Sun Quan thought that he was a good learner of moderation, and he must be better than Sun Ce's management of Jiangdong, but as a result, he fell to this step today, Liu Zhang's words definitely had an inspiring effect on Sun Quan, who was already ambitious, and increased his hatred of the dictatorship of civil officials.

In this way, the infighting in Jiangdong is not far away.

"Okay, Jiangdong and Cao Cao's diplomacy has been dealt with, and I should go back to Chang'an, Yueying, Jingzhou will be handed over to you."

Liu Zhang and Huang Yueying went ashore, Liu Zhang explained some things, and he was going to leave with his own soldiers, of course Liu Zhang and Huang Yueying would not run around with 200,000 soldiers and horses, unless the grain and grass were not used up.

These 200,000 troops walked around Yingshui to force Cao Cao, and went around Jiangxia to force Jiangdong, and eventually stayed in Jingzhou.

The 200,000 troops staying in Jingzhou can enrich Jingzhou's defense, and they can also supervise Jiangdong's execution of the contract, and if Jiangdong is to be captured in the future, they can also transfer troops nearby.

The 200,000 troops from Yingshui to Jingzhou, although they consumed some grain and grass, they gained a lot of benefits without spending a single soldier.

Huang Yueying glanced at Liu Zhang and frowned: "You went back to Chang'an to pick up your cheap wife, I heard that the third lady of the Cao family is very beautiful." ”

Huang Yueying spoke inadvertently, and there was a little jealousy, and after speaking, she felt that it was inappropriate, and she actually looked at the river bank to hide her gaze, for Huang Yueying, this was the first time.

"Why, I'm too lazy to see that third miss." Liu Zhang said indifferently, Liu Zhang has no interest in Cao Xian, but Cao Xian's marriage is good for the Sichuan army, indicating that Cao Jun has shown weakness to the Sichuan army, which will help the prestige of the Sichuan army.

When an army has might, its combat power is naturally increased.

As for what Huang Yueying said about Cao Xian's ability to arrange troops, Liu Zhang didn't dare to expect Cao Xian to train the soldiers of the Sichuan Army, a woman who was afraid of marrying herself and dared to escape marriage for a few years, do you still expect her to train the army for you?

"Are you in a hurry to go back to Chang'an?" Huang Yueying asked. At this moment, Huang Yueying really hopes that Liu Zhang will stay in Jingzhou and hand over compensation with Jiangdong, involving all aspects.

Fa Zheng alone can only settle Jingzhou after the war, and he has to be responsible for so many things, and he lacks skills.

Maybe I want to stay in Jingzhou for more than half a year, so ......

Huang Yueying suddenly felt that her heart had changed like a black hole, as if she had suddenly lost it, and the position of her heart was gone.

But Huang Yueying's words made Liu Zhang stunned, what did he do when he went back to Chang'an? Now Liu Xun and Zhou Budo have no doubts, Jiang Wan has handled the affairs of Chang'an in an orderly manner, and the Sichuan army has no military affairs, as long as it is handed over to Zhang Renwei Yan for training, and Yingshui's defense is about to shrink to Hangu Pass.

Liu Zhang looked at the river, very free at this time, but also very lost.

Liu Zhang finally decided to go back to Chang'an, first held the royal ceremony of the King of Shu, and spent the rest of the time with Huang Yue and Xiao Furong.

Liu Zhang walked to the war horse, and wanted to explain some things to Huang Yueying like other kings, entrusting this and that, but in the end he gave up, Liu Zhang knew that Huang Yueying knew everything.

was about to get on the horse, but Huang Yueying walked over, watched Liu Zhang's lips move a few times, didn't say anything, stepped forward and hugged Liu Zhang's waist, Liu Zhang was stunned, and his heart was mixed.

stepped on the war horse and walked away with his own soldiers, without even looking back.

But seeing Liu Zhang disappearing into the woods, Huang Yueying squatted by the river and cried silently, although Huang Yueying held her head, but the surrounding generals knew that Huang Yueying was crying, they never thought that people like Huang Yueying would cry.

Only Huang Yueying knew that this was the second time she cried.

With Liu Zhang, every laugh is the accumulation of crying, and the more you laugh, the more tears Liu Zhang will leave after leaving.

Tears hit the river little by little, Huang Yueying finally didn't control her emotions, originally Huang Yueying didn't want Liu Zhang to worry, didn't want Liu Zhang to know that he cared about him, as if Liu Zhang never said he liked him after he went out to the customs.

Liu Zhang was afraid that Huang Yueying was worried, and Huang Yueying was afraid that Liu Zhang would know that he was worried.

But a long time ago, Huang Yueying knew her feelings, and at the moment when Liu Zhang stepped away, when she realized that it might be eternal, her reason was finally overwhelmed by her feelings.

Suddenly, Huang Yueying stood up, her tears were not dry, and she pointed to the forest in front of her and said, "Come on, cut down all the woods tomorrow." ”

"Yes." Although I don't know why Huang Yueying did this, I can only obey orders.

Zhou Tai looked at Huang Yueying silently, as the person who cared about her the most behind her back, of course Zhou Tai knew what Huang Yueying was thinking, and at this moment Zhou Tai knew that he had completely lost. (To be continued......)
