Chapter 879: The Law of Fighting for Grain

"How much material does General Zhang think is appropriate?" Seeing that Zhang Jiutian seemed to have deep considerations, Yang Shifeng wanted to hear Zhang Jiutian's further explanation.

"At most, we will not be able to maintain the normal operation of the army, but Ben will feel that even if we are willing to hand over half, Lei Jun may not be satisfied, so we have a negotiation with Lei Jun. But if the negotiations are unfavorable, it will still lead to hostility between the two sides, which is not conducive to the alliance between the two countries," the next time, Zhang Jiutian said some thoughts again.

"In my opinion, if Marshal Bai can be invited to negotiate with the Lei Army, with Marshal Bai's prestige, he will be able to have an equal dialogue with the commander of the Lei Army, and maybe he can help us keep half of the supplies. ”

"But ......" Just when everyone saw a little hope, Zhang Jiutian's tone changed, and he said helplessly: "Marshal Bai and General Fang will only arrive tomorrow afternoon, and Lei Jun will definitely not give us a chance, so this method is not feasible." ”

When Zhang Jiutian finished saying the latter sentence, the generals were disappointed, according to Zhang Jiutian's meaning, they had no possibility of waiting for support.

"Zhang Jiutian, do you have a way?" Seeing that Zhang Jiutian had been talking for a long time, he brought the problem back to the original place, and Yang Shifeng really couldn't stand it.

"There is a way, but you need to decide whether it is okay or not," Seeing the faces of all the generals in the camp tent, Zhang Jiu continued after a pause: "Originally, the general planned to select five people from us and Lei Jun to hold a competition, using the best-of-five system, and the winning side could get all the supplies. At this moment, Zhang Jiutian finally said the method he had come up with.

"General Zhang, your method is a bit ridiculous, if we lose, then we have to hand over everything, but Lei Jun lost but didn't lose anything, can this be a solution to the problem?"

Sure enough, what kind of general taught what kind of subordinates, Zhang Jiutian's method was too risky, and it had turned this matter into a kind of gambling, and his style was indeed very similar to Lin Xuanzhong's style, but Yang Shifeng's recognition of Zhang Jiutian could not reach the level of Lin Xuanzhong.

"Could it be that General Yang has a better way?" Yang Shifeng's questioning was not surprising at all, and Zhang Jiutian was even more clear about the risks of this plan.

"Not to mention whether General Zhang's proposal is fair to both of us, how can General Zhang guarantee that Lei Jun will accept our proposal?" When Yang Shifeng was speechless when Zhang Jiutian asked, Zhou Wenfeng on the side had to help find a step.

"Lei Jun must not be afraid of us because of their large numbers, and besides, they probably didn't really want to take all the supplies from us, so Ben felt that they would most likely take this proposal as a legitimate reason. In addition, you all know very well that Lei Jun can't do anything to us, so why shouldn't they agree?"

"What if it ends in a draw?"

"Then take half of each," Facing the powerful Lei Jun, Zhang Jiutian had no better way.

"Which five people does General Zhang plan to send?" After thinking about it carefully for a while, Yang Shifeng really couldn't think of a better way than Zhang Jiutian's method, and after listening to the conversation between Zhang Jiutian and Zhou Wenfeng, Yang Shifeng recognized Zhang Jiutian's statement more and more.

"To choose a high-level martial artist who is similar in age to this general, so that it can be comparable, this general intends to select three people from the old army, and two people from the new army, as for the three of the old army, I have already selected them, and the other two are selected by General Dong," said Zhang Jiutian and naturally looked at the new army generals.

Speaking of which, Zhang Jiutian's method was born precisely because of the military situation, and in the past two days, they have been struggling with the affairs of the new army. It just so happened that Lei Jun deliberately found fault today, so that Zhang Jiutian could find a way to run in with the new army and the veterans as soon as possible. Regardless of whether the contest proposed by Zhang Jiutian was successful or not, after the matter was over, they would be able to shorten the distance between the new army and the old army.

"I agree with General Zhang's approach," Yang Shifeng immediately voted as if he also considered the benefits of the contest to the army.

"I'm in favor of it too. ”

"Count me in," Soon Zhou Wenfeng and the others all agreed with Zhang Jiutian's method, and when it was the turn of the generals of the new army, several people realized that Zhang Jiutian wanted to take this opportunity to win over the new army, of course, they had no reason to refuse, so they all nodded yes. In a blink of an eye, almost all the generals agreed to Zhang Jiutian's method.

"The general is responsible for negotiating with Lei Jun and arranging the competition, and you will try your best to appease the military and ensure the stability of the military situation before the competition," Seeing that no one questioned it anymore, Zhang Jiutian thought that there were still many things to do next, and immediately made a final decision.

"Please rest assured General Zhang, we will definitely live up to our mission," Yang Shifeng and the others nodded, and they all realized why Lin Xuanzhong wanted Zhang Jiutian to be in charge of this matter, it turned out that he had the intention to support Zhang Jiutian.

"Well," nodded, Zhang Jiutian named the three candidates on the old army's side, and then asked the new army generals to pick the other two before dawn. After explaining the selection of personnel, Zhang Jiutian directly took several generals to visit Lei Jun and asked the commander of Lei Jun in the name of Lin Xuanzhong. After meeting with the commander of the Lei army, Zhang Jiutian proposed the competition in the name of Lin Xuanzhong.

When Lei Jun's side received Zhang Jiutian, he thought that Zhang Jiutian was ordered to come over to reply to them, but Zhang Jiutian proposed a way to divide and grab the materials, which surprised the commander of the Lei Army and a group of Lei Jun high-level officials, but after those people considered it, as Zhang Jiutian had inferred before, the Lei Jun high-level who originally wanted to get something for nothing could not think of a reason to refuse, after all, they did not give any legitimate reason when they asked the Night Army to hand over all the materials.

Now the night army proposed to decide the ownership of the materials in a competition, and when Zhang Jiutian explained the rules of the competition, some people had a kind of night army wanting to take the initiative to give the materials, but there was no suitable reason, and they still gave them all. If the Night Army wasn't teasing them, there was really no reason why they wouldn't agree. Therefore, after a hasty discussion, the high-level leaders of the Lei Army accepted the proposal of the Night Army with great difficulty. In addition, they also set the time of the martial arts competition for tomorrow morning under the pretext that they were in a hurry to chase the Gu Emperor due to time constraints, so both sides had to pick good men tonight.

In terms of the rules of the competition, Zhang Jiutian's specific statement, Lei Jun's senior management also has no opinion, because according to the personnel base, Lei Jun always has a better chance of winning, not to mention that Zhang Jiutian also made it clear that Lin Xuanzhong would not participate in the competition. It is worth mentioning that because he was afraid of Lin Xuanzhong's prestige, this was also one of the reasons why Lei Jun originally accepted the proposal of the Night Army.

As for Lei Jun's time for the competition to be set for tomorrow morning, it is not difficult for Zhang Jiutian to think that the other party is afraid that the night army will regret it after waiting for Bai Shuilian to come, but this is expected, so he can only tacitly accept it. In any case, Zhang Jiutian's initial plan has been reached.

After Zhang Jiutian brought people back to the barracks, the matter of competing with Lei Jun for materials had spread in the barracks, whether it was the new army or the old army, they were all talking about this competition, based on the importance of those materials to the army, everyone didn't want to lose.

When the ideas of the new army and the old army were quickly agreed, Zhang Jiutian's method of winning over the new army had initial results, and the same goal was to enhance the relationship between people, especially after the new army learned that the night army had given them two places, thanks to the propaganda of some generals, many people had understood that the night army did not value them before, but did not know how to get along with them.

When they realized that the night army treated them so sincerely, the barracks finally became lively, and more and more new soldiers took the initiative to communicate with the old soldiers, and they finally had a common topic. From tomorrow's contestants to the legendary Lin Xuanzhong, when someone said that if Lin Xuanzhong participated, he could defeat five high-level martial cultivators at the same time with the strength of one person, those new troops were full of expectations for Lin Xuanzhong's appearance.

Next, under the questioning of many new troops, Lin Xuanzhong's legendary deeds spread directly among the army. After some people's exaggerated embellishments, Lin Xuanzhong, who rarely showed up, became more divine in the eyes of those new troops, and many new troops had a strong curiosity about Lin Xuanzhong's strength because of this.

However, when they talked about the most critical moment, the general above announced the specific list of participants, but unfortunately there was no Lin Xuanzhong among them, which disappointed many new troops.

However, for this situation, those veterans can understand, in their opinion, Lin Xuanzhong played in the competition, they will definitely win, so Lei Jun will not accept Lin Xuanzhong to play, Lei Jun's approach will only make them more proud of Lin Xuanzhong. In any case, the competition between the two sides has not yet begun, and the situation in the army has greatly improved. If he can win tomorrow's competition, Zhang Jiutian's method will be of great benefit to promoting the relationship between the two sides.

Tonight is destined to be an unquiet night, when there was a lot of noise in the barracks, Lin Xuanzhong received a notice from Zhang Jiutian, and then considered the good or bad of Zhang Jiutian's method, and the final result outweighed the disadvantages, Zhang Jiutian really did not disappoint, after sighing that Zhang Jiutian's method was very clever, Lin Xuanzhong's mind shifted to his own affairs.

There is no hope of improving his strength in a short period of time, and it seems that he has lost the opportunity to go to the Night Country. If there is no accident, the Night Emperor will definitely let him lead his troops to the east, so he can only go to the Night Country by leaving the army in a normal way, but the normal way is precisely the most unlikely way to leave the army, so Lin Xuanzhong is very embarrassed and doesn't know what to do next, or Lin Xuanzhong didn't think clearly about how to leave the army at the beginning.
