It's sunny in May.
On the broad official road, the two armies are arrayed.
Liu Zhang's 3000 soldiers, all dressed in armour and armed with weapons, lined up one by one. There were only 800 soldiers behind Liu Xiu, who were also in a strict array.
In the center of the army, Liu Zhang and Liu Xiu sat on the ground four feet apart.
Behind Liu Zhang, there is Ling Bao.
Behind Liu Xiu stood Huang Hu.
Liu Zhang looked at Liu Xiu and made a preemptive move. He said directly, "Liu Xiu, you and I were allies. Now, you have detained Liu Ruo and 30000 soldiers under my command. You have done something wrong."
Liu xiudao: "Liu Yizhou, am I not really good at it?"
Liu Zhang said, "it's not authentic."
Liu said: "since Liu Yizhou decided that we were allies as soon as he opened his mouth, why did Liu Yizhou directly send troops to attack Jingzhou? Is this still an ally? "
Liu Zhang's brow was slightly wrinkled, and his eyes showed a trace of fault.
Liu Yidao continued to bully. When needed, Jingzhou is Liu Yizhou's ally. When it's not necessary, it can attack at will. However, I'm afraid this is not an ally relationship. Liu Yizhou, have you made a mistake? "
Liu Zhang was speechless and didn't know how to answer.
At the beginning, he was trying to win the first place, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was pressed speechless.
Liu Xiu said, "Liu Yizhou, if you don't know what you're doing this time, you can go back home. As for the captured Liu Ruo, Fazheng and 30000 troops, I will kill them all, and then say that you are not willing to save them. "
Liu Zhang frowned and said, "Liu Xiu, I want to see Liu Ruo and FA Zheng first."
Liu Xiu said with a smile: "it's already ready."
After that, Liu Xiu waved his hand and immediately soldiers escorted Liu Ruo and Fazheng to the front of the army. Both of them were controlled and stood in front of the army, but they could not talk to Liu Zhang.
Liu Xiu asked: "Liu Yizhou, now I'm sure that I won't cheat you."
Liu Zhang said, "tell me, what conditions do you want before you are willing to release all those who are captured by you."
Liu Xiu leaned forward slightly and said, "my condition is very simple. For these 30000 soldiers, one person will pay for ten stones of grain. 30000 people, a total of 300000 stone grain compensation. In addition, we need 10000 sets of armour, 10000 swords and 100000 bows and arrows. "
"Hiss!"
Liu Zhang took a cool breath, and his eyes were extremely shocked.
This condition is like a lion's mouth.
Let's just say 300000 tons of grain. It's nearly ten million jin of grain. If we compensate so much grain, it's almost equivalent to emptying the grain reserves of his granaries.
There is no big war in Yizhou. It has been a bumper harvest year after year. There are countless grains stored in the granary. It is not difficult to produce 300000 stone grains. But after all, it was Liu Zhang's property. If he took out 300000 stone grain, it would be like cutting meat from Liu Zhang.
Not to mention, there are 10000 sets of armor, as well as steel knives and bows and arrows.
These are weapons.
Liu Zhang said, "Liu Xiu, your conditions are too harsh."
Liu Xiu laughed and said, "are such conditions harsh? Maybe in your eyes, the lives of soldiers are just like weeds. You have 30000 soldiers captured by me. A soldier's life is worth ten stone grain. This is the minimum. I didn't expect you to be harsh. Not to mention, a thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. Liu Ruo is your general. Isn't he worth money. The law is your counsellor. Isn't it valuable
After hearing this, Liu Zhang turned red and didn't know how to refute.
He had never met such an aggressive conversation before. Now Liu Xiu is so aggressive that he has no ability to parry.
Liu Xiu added: "now you give up 30000 troops for food. Later, when you go to war again, do you want to give up your soldiers when you encounter such a thing?"
Finally, Liu Xiu raised his voice again. The voice reached the ears of the soldiers behind Liu Zhang. Although the soldiers were expressionless, their eyes fell on Liu Zhang again.
At this moment, Liu Zhang was roasted on the fire.
Simple alienation!
Liu Zhang felt that Liu Xiu's words were too vicious.
Liu Zhang took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and said, "Liu Xiu, you don't have to be like this. Your offer is too harsh for me to fulfill. "
Liu Xiu laughed and said: "listen to the tone of Liu Yizhou, it seems that he is willing to talk about the terms. Then you can tell me what kind of terms you offer to exchange for 30000 soldiers."
When Liu Zhang heard the speech, he was silent again.
What are the conditions?
After thinking about it, Liu Zhang thought that Yizhou was rich in grain and there was no problem in giving it. However, battle armour, swords and bows and arrows were the weapons Yizhou needed. He said, "Liu Xiu, my official gave 300000 stone grain. As for swords, swords and bows and arrows, Yizhou was also short of them and could not give them."
When Liu Xiu heard the speech, he began to laugh.Three hundred thousand stone grain, Liu Zhang this fool is really enough direct.
In fact, the bottom line Liu Xiu set at the beginning was 300000 stone grain. With this batch of grain, will greatly alleviate the plight of Jingzhou grain.
Liu Xiu said: "Liu Yizhou, 300000 stone grain is too little. At least, 100000 bows and arrows should be added. I don't think it's a big problem. "
"Fifty thousand bows and arrows!"
Liu Zhang cut off half of the price and made another counter-offer.
Relatively speaking, the production cost of bows and arrows is much lower. 50000 bows and arrows are still within the bearing range.
Liu Xiumian with a smile, said: "Liu Yizhou pleasant, I like. OK, it's a deal. 300000 stone grain, 50000 bows and arrows. "
"Come on, get the ink."
Liu Xiu gave an order, and immediately a soldier came up with pen and ink.
After thanking the contract, Liu Xiu took out the seal of zhoumu and sealed it. He said, "Liu Yizhou, come on, you can also seal the seal of yizhoumu and confirm the conditions just now. You give 300000 stone grain and 50000 bows and arrows, and I will release 30000 soldiers. "
"Yes
Liu Zhang nodded and sealed the contract.
Liu Xiu took back the contract and said, "Liu Yizhou, I'm waiting for your good news. 300000 stone grain and 50000 bows and arrows. When are you going to deliver them? "
Liu Zhang replied, "within two months, all of them will be sent to Nanjun."
Liu xiudao: "in two months, I will release 30000 prisoners. Now, please go back to Liu Yizhou. We will publicize the contract for you. The people in Yizhou will be grateful to learn that Liu Yizhou loves soldiers like a son. "
"You, you..."
Liu Zhang's eyes widened and his chest fluctuated.
After Liu Xiu spread the news, it is true that these 30000 soldiers and their families will be grateful.
However, such a result will make Yizhou officials disappointed with Liu Zhang, and even make Yizhou officials think that although Yizhou and Jingzhou are vast and powerful, they are still weaker than Jingzhou.
Liu Zhang said: "Liu Jingzhou, some things, don't do too much."
Liu Xiu stood up and said, "what could be worse than Liu Yizhou's sending troops to attack Jingzhou? Liu Yizhou, two months later, I will see grain and bow and arrow. If not, I will bear the consequences. "
"Goodbye!"
As soon as Liu Xiu brushed his sleeves, he left with Huang Hu.
Liu Zhang fixed his eyes on Liu Xiu's back, clenched his fist and clenched his steel teeth. He wanted to kill Liu Xiu immediately. However, he had nothing to do with Liu Xiu.
"Let's go back to Chengdu."
Liu Zhang stood up, gave the order, and left with Ling Bao.
Li Yan followed Liu Zhang this time. He was in the army from the beginning to the end. He didn't get in the way and didn't have a chance to play.
