Chapter 203 The turmoil in Yanzhou: The White Wolf with Empty Gloves
Dong Zhao opened his mouth and reduced the supply of food and grass by 10%, and promised to extend it for five days so that Chen Youliang's army could transport supplies and food and grass!
But it was only a 10% reduction, which Liu Lancheng was still reluctant to do. After all, the Han army was a white wolf with empty hands. Just open its mouth and a large amount of food and grass would be put into the bag. No one would be willing to change it.
"How about 20%? Our army's tens of thousands of soldiers really need this batch of supplies. I would like to ask your military advisor to be accommodating."
Liu Lancheng's words revealed his scheming. His words about tens of thousands of soldiers really shocked Dong Zhao. But who was Dong Zhao? He was stunned and thought that what Liu Lancheng said was impossible.
Wang Bo's army suffered heavy casualties, and the Taishan bandits suffered numerous casualties and fled. Even if Chen Youliang's army and the new recruits recruited later were included, the number could not exceed 20,000!
If you want to intimidate Dong Zhao, you are still a bit naive...
"Really? To be honest, Mr. Liu, our support army will arrive soon. With the addition of the 10,000 to 20,000 tiger and wolf soldiers currently in the army, it shouldn't be a problem to capture Mount Tai!"
Dong Zhao's words immediately frightened Liu Lancheng into a cold sweat. He looked at the smiling Dong Zhao in front of him with horror, and couldn't help but feel chilled in his heart. How could this guy be so scary?
"This...Master Military Advisor, why don't we each take a step back and give us 30% of the food and grass. How about the Imperial Heavenly Army giving us seven days to transport the food and grass?"
Liu will be rewarded generously in the future!"
Liu Lancheng didn't dare to gamble, so he could only show his goodwill indirectly, and was willing to use 30% of the food, grass and supplies in exchange for time. As long as the Han army agreed, they would have to move all the food and grass within seven days, even if they didn't sleep.
Even if you leave, you must burn it down!
Dong Zhao had already seen Liu Lancheng's embarrassment at this time. As the saying goes, a dog will jump over the wall in a hurry, and a rabbit will bite when it is anxious. If Chen Youliang's army is forced to a dead end, it will most likely cause a lose-lose situation, which is not conducive to future development, so Dong Zhao
Zhao pretended to stroke his beard and turned his back to wink at the superior Qi Jiguang...
Qi Jiguang understood instantly and responded with a look, telling Dong Zhao to make arrangements and leave all the power to Dong Zhao!
"Okay! Three makes three percent. Within three days, they must all be transported down Mount Tai. Not a single stone is missing, otherwise you will have to wait to accept the wrath of our army..."
Dong Zhao directly made it clear that he was willing to accept 30% of what Liu Lancheng said! But the premise is that it must be transported down Mount Tai within three days and delivered to the Han army. If he breaks his promise, he will bear the consequences.
After paying 30% of the supplies and food, he successfully negotiated with the Han army. This made Liu Lancheng feel very good, and he gave his hands and bowed to express his thanks.
After the negotiation was over, the Han army general Qi Jiguang and other generals did not get down to see him off, but simply glanced at Liu Lancheng, watched Liu Lancheng go further and further in his eyes, mounted his horse and galloped away!
"Han Army, just wait for me. If you are so humiliated today, you will definitely repay me twice as much in the future."
Liu Lancheng buried a seed of hatred and humiliation in his heart, which gradually sprouted...
When Liu Lancheng was traveling to and from Mount Tai, Chen Youliang, who was on Mount Tai, took the lead and led a group of generals to join in the process of transporting supplies.
If Chen Youliang withdraws from Taishan County, the next step is to move westward and first look for opportunities to occupy the Rencheng Kingdom, Jibei Kingdom and Dongping Kingdom that border Taishan County!
Among these three places, Najibei Kingdom is the farthest to the north, Rencheng Kingdom is in the middle with a small area, and Dongping Kingdom is close to the west of Jibei Kingdom.
If they want to occupy it, then Renchengguo, the weakest country, will undoubtedly be the first choice!
Renchengguo is currently dominated by Liu Tuo, and is basically in a situation of sitting on nothing. How can it resist the invasion of Chen Youliang's army?
As for Liu Kai of Dongping Kingdom, he only had one Li Zan under his command, and he couldn't resist Chen Youliang's aggression...
These two places are Chen Youliang's next goals. He will first occupy Rencheng State, then go north to take down Dongping State in a blitzkrieg. Then, he will use these two places as a foundation to defend against the Han army's counterattack, and then encroach on Jibei State!
First win over these three countries, then concentrate on development, and slowly figure out the overall situation of Yanzhou.
Just when Chen Youliang was thinking clearly about the way to go next, he heard his soldiers coming to report Liu Lancheng's return!
"The military advisor is back? Come on, take me there."
As soon as Chen Youliang rolled up the sleeves of his right arm, he heard about Liu Lancheng's return. He immediately got excited, dropped the things in his hands, got on his horse, and drove away to the military camp.
Not only Chen Youliang was like this, the other senior officers all got on their horses, followed in Chen Youliang's footsteps, and galloped towards the military camp, just to know whether Liu Lancheng's negotiations with the Han army were successful!
"My lord! Fortunately, we have fulfilled our mission. The Han army is willing to delay for seven days to transport grain, grass and supplies for us, but... I made an agreement with them to use 30% of the grain and grass to trade."
Liu Lancheng slowly spat out these words. He thought that Chen Youliang would be furious, but he never thought that he would be happy instead of angry. He came to Liu Lancheng's side, held Liu Lancheng's hands seriously, and praised him for his achievements!
"It doesn't matter if our army is reduced by 30%. With the remaining 70% of food and grass, we can quickly rise in other states and counties.
Wu Guang, where are the two generals, Jing Pantuo? I ordered them to each take five thousand soldiers to carry grain and grass. Now we will send them down Mount Tai and send down the 30% that we negotiated with the Han army.
Then come back quickly to help..."
Generals Wu Guang and Jing Pantuo (who had recovered from their injuries) accepted the order and immediately ordered the soldiers to transport the supplies down the mountain and deliver them to the Han army.
At this time, the generals arranged by the Han Army were Gao Jue and Liang Shitai, who would be responsible for receiving the supplies transported by Chen Youliang's army.
"Damn it, that guy participated in the siege of Chao Gai brothers, which caused Chao Gai brothers to die on the battlefield.
Brother Guanghui, who was also injured, lost his arm and became a disabled person. He retired from the army and retired to the mountains and forests..."
Gao Jue glared at Wu Guang who was coming down the mountain. Nameless fire surged into his chest, and his eyes turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. If Liang Shitai hadn't stopped him, Gao Jue would have rushed forward and killed Wu Guang right now.
Liang Shitai hated Wu Guang extremely, but he forced himself to calm down in his heart and controlled his body to stop Gao Jue, so as to prevent Gao Jue's impulse from ruining the plans of the military advisor and General Qi Jiguang.
"Come quickly, take General Gao Jue to rest..."
Calling his soldiers to take Gao Jue away, Liang Shitai took a deep breath and stared at Wu Guang and Jing Pantuo with his eyes as sharp as thunder shattering the void, watching their every move.
Liang Shitai's basic strength exceeded 100, and with the blessing of BMW and magic weapons, he was filled with murderous aura. Wu Guang and Jing Pantuo were frightened from a distance, and his movements became faster and faster, fearing that Liang Shitai couldn't help but kill himself.
.
"This...General Liang Shitai, these are 30% of our army's food and grass, and they are all here. Farewell!"
Wu Guang didn't dare to talk nonsense. After quickly carrying the food and grass, he turned around and ran towards Mount Tai. He was relieved when he couldn't see Liang Shitai, and his whole body was wet with cold sweat.
