Chapter 375: Making Friends

When Yuan Wuyu and his people finally arrived in Shangliao City, they were completely relieved. After receiving the news that Shangjing City was broken, Yuan Wuyu was always worried, for fear that when he arrived in Shangliaocheng, Li Mingyang's people had already killed him, and even Shangliaocheng had been taken. Up to now, this once powerful strategist of Shu County, at this moment, he was more worried than anyone else about what kind of elusive means Li Mingyang would use.

To say that the only thing that reassures Yuan Wuyu now is to go to the capital to fight, at least Li Mingyang has no special means to use, it is completely a step-by-step hard fight, and the final victory is completely because the morale of the monk army is stronger, and there is the spirit of his subordinates who are really not afraid of death.

But it was also the same thought of the defeat in the battle of Shangjing, but the anger in Yuan Wuyu's eyes was even more.

"My lord, this is all the baggage transferred from Shangjing City, eight million top-grade spirit stones, and all the pills have not been lost at all. Seeing Yuan Wuyu enter the city, Chen Ze immediately explained to Yuan Wuyu, and he was even a little proud in his words.

Seeing that although Chen Ze verbally said that he was pleading, he couldn't help but have a bit of smugness on his face, Yuan Wuyu's anger was even stronger: "Did you order the defenders of Shangjing to withdraw half of them and take all the baggage away?"

Chen Ze was on the rise at this time, and he always thought that he had made a very correct decision, and he didn't realize that Yuan Wuyu's face was gloomy and about to turn black, and he still said with great interest: "Yes, it's me ......" Before the words were finished, Chen Ze finally raised his head and saw Yuan Wuyu's face, seeing this god-like old man in Shu County showing such an expression, Chen Ze finally realized that something was wrong: "My lord......"

"Dragged down, chopped. Yuan Wuyu stopped talking nonsense, and immediately an order was handed down. Chen Ze's face changed greatly, and he wanted to ask a question, but he was directly pulled away by the two black-armored monks, and he was completely silent after a while.

When the surrounding monks saw this scene, they were all silent, especially those Shu army monks who had retreated from the capital city, Yuan Wufu cut down their commander as soon as he came, and these people who had escaped the catastrophe of the capital city also began to worry about their safety.

Lu Shiguang, as the chief general of Shangliao City, although he is here on weekdays, but now that Yuan Wufu is here, he can only make a move, seeing that Chen Ze was directly killed, Lu Shiguang asked stubbornly: "My lord, how are we going to fight next?"

Yuan Wufu glanced at Lu Shiguang, only threw down the sentence "Garrison first, don't go out of the city", and then turned around and left.

The reason why Yuan Wuyu is so angry is completely because of Chen Ze's stupidity. Although before he set out on the expedition, he had strongly persuaded the king of Shu to withdraw his troops, transfer all the monks in the capital city, and take away all the baggage, and even all the monks in Shu County were withdrawn and all returned to Shu County, just as the battle of Changyun County was lost, at least many unnecessary losses could be reduced.

However, the king of Shu did not listen to his persuasion, and still insisted on sending troops, and he could only rush to help. Originally, in his opinion, even if there were no capable people in Shangjing, at least they were all elite soldiers who had experienced a hundred battles, and no matter how bad they were, they could support themselves to support. But I didn't expect to receive the news that Shangjing City was broken as soon as I set out on the expedition, and now I finally know why it was so completely defeated.

Chen Ze, a fool, took away half of the monks in Shangjing City in order to divert his baggage when the enemy was at present. Such an approach is tantamount to digging one's own grave.

Facing Li Mingyang, who had won successive battles in Changyun County, even Yuan Wuyu's scalp was numb when he thought of it, because such an unknown opponent really made anyone who thought of it afraid of him, even himself, not to mention these ordinary monks.

However, knowing that Li Mingyang's Jinzhu army was in Muhuang City and could attack Shangjing at any time, Chen Ze did not do a good job of boosting morale, but took away half of the monks and all the baggage at the critical moment. In this way, how can the monks left in the capital fight to the death, even if they fight to the death, they are all battles with despair, and it is not bad if they can exert seventy percent of their combat power.

Before the start of the war, the commander retreated first, which had already broken the morale of the army, and then Chen Ze's actions completely made the monks who were left in the capital city die. With no reinforcements, no baggage, their task is to wait for the enemy to attack, and then fight to the death.

It was a real desperate battle, because the final result of that battle was death in battle, the only difference was how many people they could kill before they died in battle.

What made Yuan Wuyu the most angry was Chen Ze's stupidity, his idea of wanting to protect the baggage was very correct, after all, if these things fell into Li Mingyang's hands, it would only increase his strength even more. It's just that he shouldn't have taken away half of the monks in order to transfer the baggage, in fact, even if Chen Ze withdrew with all the monks and baggage, leaving an empty city for Li Mingyang, it didn't matter, but he stupidly left half of the monks, and then let this half of the monks wait for death in the capital.

When Yuan Wuyu arrived in Shangliao City, he already felt that the monks in Shangliao City had been affected a lot, and Yuan Wuyu was most worried about morale before, but he didn't expect a stupid decision made by a stupid general to pour boiling oil on the current fire.

Yuan Wuyu suddenly began to feel a burst of despair, he had managed Shu County for so many years, and he only now knew that there were so many fools in Shu County. But it was this battle that made Yuan Wuyu realize a problem, that is, the Shu County monks didn't seem to be good at fighting against the wind. In the past wars, the routine of the Shu army was to assemble a large army, and then take the enemy directly with the advantage of strong strength and battle formation, and even sometimes simply crushed, such a war will naturally be fought by everyone who likes to fight, but it is smooth sailing, and suddenly there is a person who makes them eat deflated one after another, in the face of such an opponent, the hearts of many generals in Shu County seem to have been messed up.

As soon as he sat down, Yuan Wuyu summoned another guard and said, "Hurry up and ask, how is the discussion with King Cheng, if you can, hurry up and do it, don't hesitate." ”

The black-armored guard nodded heavily and hurriedly retreated.

Yuan Wuyu sat in his position, looked at the map on the opposite wall, and suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Changyun County's hegemony plan?" Staring at a few big characters on the map, Yuan Wuwu shook his head depressedly, and muttered: "For this district Changyun County, how many good sons and daughters of my Shu County have been buried, Lord Wang, are you going to become the second King of Han?"

"My lord, Fei Ling is back. A guard whispered outside the door.

Yuan Wuyu hurriedly sat up: "Let him in." ”

Fei Ling, as the most elite spy under Yuan Wuyu, finally breathed a sigh of relief to Yuan Wuyu with his return.

"It's nice to see your kid come back alive. Yuan Wuyu said sincerely, what he was most worried about when he sent Fei Ling was that Fei Ling died in Changyun County inexplicably, and after sighing, Yuan Wuyu immediately asked, "What did you find?"

Fei Ling smiled jerkyly, and then took out a jade slip from his arms-

"Master Li, it's been a long time...... Long time no see. Zhao Lingrui panted and ran to Li Mingyang's front and greeted Li Mingyang breathlessly.

Li Mingyang looked at this interesting fat man suspiciously, looked at it with interest for a while, and then asked, "Where did Zhao Gongzi come from, he seems to be very tired." ”

"Hey, don't mention it, I just came back from the East China Sea, and as soon as I came back, I heard Lord Li's big deal here in Changyun County, so I rushed over immediately. ”

"East China Sea?" Li Mingyang was surprised to hear such a statement, but this is not the point, the point is why Zhao Lingrui is so wolf. After thinking about it, Li Mingyang suddenly figured out something, and immediately smiled: "If Zhao Gongzi has something to be busy, you can go and be busy, and when I take Changyun County, I will leave you a place, and the cooperation between me and Long Tingjun will definitely not have any accidents this time." ”

Although Zhao Lingrui did come for this matter, he knew better about the routine of doing business, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "This is not in a hurry, Lord Li is still busy with business, we are here to trouble Lord Li for this little matter, I came this time for another thing." ”

"Another thing?" Li Mingyang was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is there any business to discuss?"

Zhao Lingrui laughed and said, "I'm not just good at doing business, I'm here this time to help Lord Li reward the army of monks." ”

"Reward?" Li Mingyang's eyes lit up immediately when he heard this, and he suddenly thought that the fat man in front of him was definitely a living God of Wealth, although Li Mingyang accepted Guo Yunshan's suggestion, he could not always implement the policy of grabbing light and splitting light in the future, not that he would let his subordinates work hard and not give them benefits, but as a commander, he must be prepared for danger in times of peace.

If the monks under his command are accustomed to grabbing a large number of spirit stones after every battle, and suddenly one day they can't grab enough benefits, they will definitely not be able to accept it all of a sudden. Therefore, it is necessary to have a clear system of rewards and punishments, so that we can better control the army of monks.

But although this is the truth, Li Mingyang just likes the simplest and most direct way - the spirit stone. He only believes in one thing, as long as there are enough benefits, even his wall grass will definitely help you fight this battle.

"Zhao Gongzi, you came in a very timely manner, can you lend me some spirit stones first, you don't know, this capital is down, but the poor hair here is gone, I urgently need a spirit stone to reward my subordinates." Li Mingyang said very directly.

It was really the first time for Zhao Lingrui to see Li Mingyang have such an appearance, but seeing that he could treat himself like this, Zhao Lingrui was overjoyed, it seems that no matter what, Li Mingyang has finally begun to gradually accept himself. Although Zhao Lingrui is a pure businessman, the businessman is not without friends, and one of the things he believes in the most is that the person who can be the best friend in the world is the person who can have the most direct interests.

The more they can make money together, the more they can be friends, this is Zhao Lingrui's idea, and he doesn't think there's anything wrong with this. He wants to befriend Li Mingyang because Li Mingyang can fight more territory, which can allow him to earn more benefits in it, but at the same time, he can also provide Li Mingyang with more spirit stones and magic weapons and even help him recruit mercenaries and collect intelligence, the purpose of a qiē is to achieve a win-win situation for everyone, and what can be more reliable than such a friendship.

Zhao Lingrui was not pretentious, and he didn't sell it this time, and said directly: "I brought 30 million high-grade spirit stones this time, all of which can be used by you, and this time I don't ask for these spirit stones, you let your people use them." There are also pills, 100,000 third-grade healing pills, and 500,000 second-grade healing pills, you can just take all these things. ”

Li Mingyang knew that Zhao Lingrui was very rich, very rich and rich, and maybe even richer than the richest Shu King in the Central Plains, but he never imagined that Zhao Lingrui could come up with so many things this time. Li Mingyang always thought that he had seen enough of the world, but looking at Zhao Lingrui, Li Mingyang always felt that he was a frog at the bottom of a well.

"Zhao Gongzi, what else are you going to want, you must know that I also fought down Changyun County for myself to occupy, and it is definitely impossible to sell the spirit stone vein, of course, in fact, it is impossible for me to sell all the land. After reacting, Li Mingyang hurriedly said.

Seeing that Li Mingyang was a little nervous, Zhao Lingrui was stunned for a moment, and then finally couldn't help laughing, and then said, "Lord Li, you are too careful, just 30 million high-grade spirit stones, and you still want to buy spirit stone veins, isn't it a pipe dream." Since we have started to cooperate, these things should be from my Long Ting Army. There is a sentence that I am not afraid to say here, in fact, when you told me that you were going to attack Changyun County, I really didn't take this matter to heart, but now that Master Li, you have a strong enough appearance, I can't hide it anymore. Doing business, my deposit has been paid, and you have to show something, so that I can invest in the future, right?"

Although Zhao Lingrui has only seen Li Mingyang many times, but from the news of Li Mingyang he has collected, and the few times he has gotten along with Li Mingyang, he already knows a lot about Li Mingyang's temperament.

But Li Mingyang will definitely not, his frank expression will win more favor from Li Mingyang. Zhao Lingrui seems to have been born to do business, and he often has a very clear purpose when doing anything. For example, this time, he didn't think that his words were performative, but rather that he liked them.

Sure enough, Zhao Lingrui had just confessed his thoughts, Li Mingyang raised his eyebrows, and laughed: "You friend, I have made up my mind." ”
