Chapter 567: Paying for Military Expenses

"As the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved - Mr. Kuai came today presumably because Lord Liu has a heart of peace in his heart, so Guo opened the skylight and said bright words, this time the battle of Jingzhou is wrong with Liu Biao, so all expenses in Yangzhou must be borne by Jingzhou." Seeing that there was some coldness, Zhou Yu gave Guo Jia a look and asked him to continue, on such an occasion, Zhou Yu's mouth was inappropriate, Guo Jia understood that the fat sheep sent to the door were not slaughtered, and they were not slaughtered.

"Mr. Guo's war was launched by the Yangzhou army, which invaded under the surprise of our army, and according to the law of the Han Dynasty, it was not allowed to raise troops without the edict of the Son of Heaven. Although my lord did not handle it properly, is it benevolence and righteousness for Yangzhou to raise troops at will? My lord has sent Kuai to sue for peace, just to let the two families turn the war into a jade silk, since it comes to military spending, then should the Yangzhou army also withdraw from Jingzhou? Kuai Yue was so angry in his heart, it was clear that Guo Jia was going to slaughter them, originally this time the water army and the infantry army lost a lot, and the six counties of Jingzhou were occupied by the Yangzhou army, and Jiangxia County was occupied by Sun Ce, Jingzhou's strength is not as good as before, but if some military expenses can make the Yangzhou army withdraw its troops, it can be regarded as a good ending.

"Hmph - Mr. Kuai is really sharp-toothed, my lord has the edict of the Son of Heaven to crusade against the non-ministers, Liu Jingzhou's approach is the person who is not subordinate, at the beginning I Yangzhou has already known the world to let Liu Jingzhou give an explanation, but Liu Jingzhou is invincible under his command and sent messengers and military advisors to insult my lord, how can you Jingzhou ask for peace? Under the general trend, our Yangzhou army is in full swing, and the defeat of the Yizhou, Jingzhou, and Yuzhou coalition forces has become famous all over the world, and it will not take many days for our army to take Jingzhou. Whether you withdraw the army or not, whether you fight Jingzhou or not, it depends on how my lord feels? Guo Jia didn't expect this Kuai Yue to think of such a good thing, they spent countless money and grain to defeat half of Jingzhou, and they wanted to withdraw their troops with a little money and food, and their deployment was not in vain before.

"According to Mr. Guo's opinion, my Jingzhou army lost the navy, the land of the six counties, and the people, so what?" Kuai Yue's original intention was to let the Yangzhou army stop at the lowest cost, he considered all his interests in Jingzhou, the Han is a state of etiquette, as long as he gives enough face and rich wealth, presumably Zhou Yu can agree to their request, but he is now Zhou Yu just watched coldly, Guo Jia is righteous words aggressively instantly angered Kuai Yue, even if the Jingzhou army is not good, it can't be bullied by others.

"Mr. Kuai, what do you want?" Zhou Yu sat on the side and listened to Kuai Yue's meaning, that is, he still wanted him to compensate, what a big joke! Historically, losers have no right to speak, Liu Biao, it seems that they have been pampered for a long time, and they have forgotten how to kneel, right?

"Lord Zhou, my lord and you belong to the same family as the Dahan Prefecture Mu, but for a small matter, he used swords and soldiers in vain, regardless of the law of the Han Dynasty, and there was no edict from the Son of Heaven between the Dahan Dynasty and the State Pastoral! Now that the war has taken place, my lord sincerely makes peace with you, and he has specially prepared a generous gift to make peace with your lordship. My lord means that the Yangzhou army withdrew from the four counties of Xiangyang, Yidu, Jianping and Wuling, and the remaining Changsha and Hengyang were managed by Yangzhou. This is a gift list, please take a look at Lord Zhou-" Seeing Zhou Yu opening his mouth, Kuai Yue also felt that when it came to this point, what should be said was to say that if he went around in circles again, maybe there would be a resumption of military disasters.

After receiving the gift sheet, Zhou Yu was about to laugh, not that the apology was not good, it was too good! At least there are fifty beauties in Jingzhou, as well as dozens of carts of gold, silver and jewelry. It's just that he is really a little ridiculous about Liu Biao's conditions, he touched his chin and laughed for a long time, and his tears were about to come out, and after waiting for a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief before saying: "Mr. Kuai Yue - Liu Jingsheng's apology is rich, but I think it's far from enough!" He thought he could do whatever he wanted. I, Zhou Yu, want to destroy him Jingzhou just took some time, and any apology is in my pocket, but Yangzhou Xingbing has the edict of the Son of Heaven to crusade against the minister, and Liu Biao is not a minister. Looking at the annals of history, since it is a defeated army, it is necessary to be the consciousness of a defeated army, Jingzhou is the land of the Han Dynasty, not the land of Liu Jingsheng, since the Jingzhou army is a rebel, how can we talk about conditions? ”

"Since Mr. Kuai is Liu Jingsheng's messenger, then you can understand what I say. First, Liu Jingsheng killed the loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty in vain, and Jiangxia County needed to be compensated as a place for the descendants of Wucheng Marquis. Second, along the way, Cai Mao, the governor of the naval army, sent troops to attack and kill me, that is, I have a grudge against Zhou Yu, and I have a grudge against Zhou Yu. But for Liu Jingsheng's sake, Cai Mao must make compensation until I am satisfied. Third, Liu Jingsheng's unknown knowledge and ability to defend Jingzhou are insufficient, and our Yangzhou army needs to lease our army for five years to help him quell the rebellion in the six counties of Jingzhou, and after five years, our army will naturally withdraw, which can be based on documents. The last clause is counted as an additional condition, and Liu Jingsheng must be present in person when signing the document, otherwise everything will be invalid. The loss of our Yangzhou army in quelling the rebellion is very great, and the five-year lease of the six counties of Jingzhou is counted as the military expenses of my Zhou Yu's troops. I'll give you only seven days, and if you don't reply after seven days, you'll be at your own risk - you'll be sent off! After a pause, Zhou Yu finished talking about his conditions in one breath, and without giving Kuai Yue a chance to talk, he asked Kuai Yue to go out.

After Kuai Yue went out, Guo Jia gave Zhou Yu a thumbs up, he hadn't thought of a reason for withdrawing the army, he didn't expect that the money and food they spent on sending troops needed to come out of the pockets of the six counties of Jingzhou and Cai Mao.

Jingzhou's side could only agree to Zhou Yu's proposal after discussion, but there was no way that they couldn't beat Zhou Yu now and wanted to ensure their glory and wealth, so they could only accept the fact that Zhou Yu leased the six counties of Jingzhou. Cai Mao's compensation Zhou Yu was generous at the end, and Zhou Yu made a lot of money in addition to loan and compensation.

The city defense of Xiangyang has been repaired, and Huang Zhong was appointed by Zhou Yu as the Taishou of Xiangyang, and Zhou Cang as the deputy general to guard this place together. Yangzhou Cheng Yu sent a secret report, the big net they laid has been formed, just wait for Zhou Yu to go back to be able to start closing the net, in addition to this one thing, there is a more important thing, that is, Zhou Yu's wedding day is approaching.

Regardless of whether Zhou Yu wants to be willing or not, Yu Ruyi and Xiao Qiao were removed from the shelves with him at the same time, Zhou Yu's father had already sent the dowry to each family, and Yu Ruyi temporarily lived in a separate courtyard before passing the door. His parents were embarrassed and Zhou Yu was also a little excited in his heart, he had never been married in his previous life, and God treated him well in this life, so he took two wives at once. One is so similar to his own birth and death and the other is so similar to his girlfriend in his previous life, the most important thing is that Xiao Qiao is still a beauty from the Three Kingdoms in the romance. Even Cao Cao built Tongque Terrace to collect Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao-

Zhou Yu's wedding is not only in Yangzhou, but also for the whole world, and the princes from all walks of life have prepared generous gifts to send envoys to Yangzhou to celebrate, taking advantage of the opportunity to act cheaply.
