After Dong Shouye returned to the army, he ordered all the horses obtained this time to be incorporated into the baggage camp, originally wanting to reward the generals who went to war, but these horses were too bad compared to the existing horses in the Xiliang army, and they were unsightly, so he gave up the plan to reward everyone.

In this regard, the generals who participated in the war had no opinion, they were used to seeing the good horses in the Xiliang army, and naturally they looked down on these bad horses.

The only person who is not in a good mood is Hua Xiong. What puzzled him was that his martial arts were obviously stronger than Li Dao and Li Meng, but the results of the battle were very different, and it was a little doll who had just been weaned that defeated him.

Seeing this, Dong Bai stepped forward and comforted: "Huaxiong, do you know what the origin of Sun Ce, who fought with you?" ”

Hua Xiong replied angrily: "I heard that it is Sun Jian's eldest son, Lao Tzu is a hero, and this Sun Ce really didn't disgrace his father." ”

Dong Bai smiled and said, "Sun Jian used the ancient ingot knife, but Sun Ce used the halberd. This son heard the news from the fine work, although Sun Ce is young, but his martial arts are slightly better than his father, and Sun Ce's halberd method is fierce and domineering, Sun Ce encountered a good opportunity in his early years, and became the heirloom disciple of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, although you are strong in martial arts, but how is it compared to the overlord of Western Chu? ”

Hua Xiong replied: "The last general is reckless, so naturally he can't compare with the overlord of Western Chu. He is a masterpiece of his old generation, a hero of the world, and he will not be able to think about what will happen. ”

Dong Shouye said with a straight face: "Huaxiong, you don't have to be arrogant. Sun Ce is extremely talented, and it seems that he has learned a thing or two from the overlord of Western Chu. You have gone all out in this battle, although you are still honored, you should still cheer up, practice martial arts diligently, strive to go further, and take your martial arts to the next level. ”

Hua Xiong clenched his fists and said to Dong Shouye: "What the son taught is that the last general must follow the teachings of the son!" ”

After a while, the herald reported that Sun Jian's envoy was asking to see him, and when Dong Shouye heard that the messenger was coming, he immediately came to his senses, and hurriedly asked the herald to inform the guards to let him go.

Dong Shouye, Jia Xu, Zhang Liaodianwei and others met with Gong Qiu in the camp.

Dong Shouye's guy said to the public enemy like a nobody: "Some small things turned out to be the fact that Lao Gongqiu Changshi came in person, and my son really didn't want to go!" Uncle Sun too, will it not be long before you send someone over? With the friendship between our two families, can this son still embarrass General Huang! ”

Gong Qiu said that his heart was like a mirror, but he didn't feel that Dong Shouye was being polite to himself, it was obvious that the other party was ridiculing himself, but people had to bow their heads under the eaves! After all, the commander will be accused by the other party! I couldn't stop scolding in my heart: "Whoever has a relationship with you, whoever has a relationship with your little fox will be killed by you!" With a smile on his face, he saluted Dong Shouye very politely, and then said: "Dong Gongzi is polite, it is precisely because of the friendship between you and me that my lord will send a certain family to come, so that he will not lose his courtesy." ”

Dong Shouye smiled heartily and said, "The long history of public enmity, please take a seat!" After speaking, he pointed to the table that had been set up. Originally, the two armies were fighting in front of the formation, and they should have put military information first, and should not have put a table in the army and set up a banquet. But in order to let Sun Jian spend money to redeem Huang Gai, Dong Shouye specially asked people to prepare it temporarily, which happened to be used at the time of handover.

The public feud said that when he saw this, he was also polite, and then he sat down, and when he saw that there was no preserved food and fruit on the table, it was empty, there was nothing, not even saliva, and obviously he didn't have the intention of entertaining himself. Of course, the public feud said that he did not come for the other party's hospitality, and he knew that the other party did it on purpose to show himself. Thinking about it, I still hurried into the topic and handled the things that the main bus did for me, so I spoke again: "Dong Gongzi, a certain family came here this time just for Captain Huang Gai. ”

Dong Shouye nodded, and then said: "What is Captain Huang Gai, it should be General Huang, Sun Yuzhou gathered nearly 100,000 people, could it be that Huang Gai, as a general under his command, didn't even mix up with a general?" ”

Gong Qiu said that when he heard the other party's words, he hurriedly laughed and said: "Dong Gongzi is serious, the title of general is appointed and dismissed by the imperial court, my lord is just a general, a state assassin, how dare you trespass, and give your subordinates the title of general without authorization!" ”

Jia Xu saw that his son-in-law deliberately made things difficult for the other party, but he just smiled and did not speak.

At this time, Zhang Liao shouted loudly: "Sun Poyu gathered people without authorization and attacked Luoyang, when will he put the imperial court in his eyes?" ”

Gong Qiu said that he was startled by Zhang Liao's shout, and he broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "General Wenyuan is serious, a certain family came this time for the matter of Captain Huang Gai, as for the affairs of the imperial court for the time being, I guess my lord and Dong Gongzi only have their own opinions." ”

Dong Shouye looked at it, but he didn't expect that this public feud was still a little witty, and he knew that he would avoid the important and light. So he said: "That's okay, I don't know how the public feud Changshi is going to negotiate?" ”

Gong Qiu replied: "I don't know how Dong Gongzi is willing to release our Captain Huang Gai?" ”

Dong Shouye smiled, looked at the public feud and said, "Then it depends on your sincerity, or General Huang Gai's status in the eyes of Uncle Sun?" ”

The public enemy said secretly when he heard this: "This Dong Gongzi is really cunning, it seems that he can't do it without some blood." So he said: "My lord specially ordered a certain family to prepare 5,000 catties of gold (50 million yuan, one pound of gold is officially worth 10,000 yuan), which is enough to show our sincerity, and I hope that Dong Gongzi can make a large amount of money and not make it difficult for a certain family." ”

When Dong Shouye heard this, Sun Jian's price was a lot, the previous bet of 500 war horses should now be worth 50,000 yuan a piece, 500 war horses are worth 25 million yuan, and the current 5,000 catties of yellow scarves is equivalent to 1,000 war horses! Sun Jian is bleeding profusely, very sincere!

You must know that in the current war, the value of gold and horses is the most precious, and gold as a hard currency is about the same status in any era, which is needless to say. And what about horses? It can be said that it is not easy for Sun Jian to get a war horse now. Generally speaking, a soldier is not worth a horse, because the soldier can be recruited again when he dies, and if the horse is dead, it is ten times more difficult to buy it than to recruit soldiers.

To be honest, Dong Shouye really didn't expect that in Sun Jian's eyes, Huang Gai was more precious than a thousand war horses, so he was very satisfied with this price, so he said: "Since General Huang Gai is worth 5,000 catties of gold in the eyes of Uncle Sun, that Gongzi has nothing to say, and someone will invite General Huang Gai up." ”
