The next day, the Bohai Prefecture officially hosted a banquet for Zhulu Ling.

At the banquet, Yuan Shao highly praised Zhulu Ling's outstanding performance in previous battles. He believed that Zhulu Ling was a role model in the player's territory. He praised Zhulu Ling's strength so much that even Yu Buzhi himself felt a little ashamed.

However, he still smiled happily.

The tone of Yuan Shao's speech made Yu Buzhi understand that the Bohai Prefecture had made a decision.

It is obvious that Yuan Shao is ready to accept Zhulu Ling's friendship.

If he hadn't planned to cooperate with Zhulu Ling, there would be no need for Yuan Shao to boast so disgustingly.

There were certain shackles brought about by Yuan Shao's background that he could not ignore. Yuan Shao could not bear the negative impact of being slapped in the face by the Black Mountain Army again and abandoning his "friends" in times of crisis. What's more, Yuan Shao could not refuse the bargaining chip that Zhulu Leader had.

.

Sure enough, at the end of the banquet, the servants and maids were dismissed.

Yuan Shao solemnly stated: The Bohai Prefecture attaches great importance to the friendship with the Zhulu Territory. Since the Feiyu Territory is within the Bohai Sea, the Prefecture has the responsibility to protect the Feiyu Territory from attacks by external forces. If the Black Mountain Army attempts to invade the Feiyu Territory again, the Prefecture will never

Just sit back and watch, and we will give Feiyu Ling our full support and protection.

Yu Buzhi smiled broadly and expressed his gratitude for this.

Soon, Yuan Shao changed the topic and said that "God has the virtue of good life". The conflict between the Feiyu Leader and the Black Mountain Army was not a big deal. It is not good to blindly fight bravely and use all kinds of weapons to kill people. Yuan Shao finally said

He said that if Yu Buzhi intends to turn hostility into friendship, the Bohai Prefecture can also mediate and try to resolve the grudges between the two families to prevent more people from losing their lives.

Yuan Shao's proposal was already expected by Zhulu Ling.

The Montenegrin soldiers were so numerous that they were said to have numbered hundreds of thousands, crushing all the princes in Hebei.

Yuan Shao only controls one county in Bohai, with only 20,000 to 30,000 troops, and most of them rely on the support of the Jizhou government to survive. Forcing Yuan Shao to fight against the Black Mountain Army is not asking for help, it is just asking Yuan Shao to die. Yuan Shao stalled this

It is a thorny issue and it would be extremely unwise to fight head-on. We will definitely find ways to resolve it through diplomatic channels.

Yuan Shao went on to raise the second key question: Since the grudge between the two sides started with the Feiyu leader taking people captive, the Black Mountain Army was the victim. Later, when the two sides went to war, the Black Mountain Army suffered heavy losses, and the face was not good-looking. If you want peace

To resolve the dispute, even if the Bohai Prefecture comes forward, it must give the Montenegro Army a step down. It will inevitably give some compensation to the Montenegro Army. Is it acceptable to Zhulu Ling?

When this issue was brought up, everyone present at the Bohai Prefecture was a little worried, worried that Yu Wuzhi would not accept it.

When talking about this dispute yesterday, Lord Zhulu's tough style of filing a complaint first and then beating him up left a deep impression on everyone in the Bohai Prefecture. The psychological shadow that a "foolish man" brought to them has not dissipated to this day.

The possibility of diplomatic settlement of disputes is not impossible, but due to circumstances and reasons, Zhulu Leader needs to make certain compensation, which is the prerequisite for diplomatic settlement of grievances. Everyone in the Bohai Prefecture is very worried that Yu Buzhi will not be able to turn this corner and refuse.

Players have no authority, are not afraid of death, and are not afraid of trouble. This is a "well-known" trait.

Ordinary lords are unwilling to perish together with their territory, and they have some scruples in their actions.

Yu Wuzhi is a little different. His troops are very capable of fighting. His base is in Bajun Zhulu Leader, while Feiyu Leader is just a sub-base. Even if Feiyu Leader has its shortcomings, this guy can continue to be his leader in a glorious manner.

The lord, coupled with the Zhulu leader, has never suffered any losses in foreign battles along the way, so it has the confidence to make mistakes.

It doesn't matter if the fish is ignorant and stupid, at most the flying fish won't take it.

But the Bohai Prefecture has made it clear that it will help Feiyu Territory resist the Black Mountain Army. Although the so-called "help" has practical reasons and is not entirely because of the so-called "friendship", if the Montenegro Army really attacks, the Bohai Prefect

It is unjustifiable that the government does not send troops. If the two armies go to war, there will definitely be casualties. The Bohai Prefecture has such little financial resources, and it really does not dare to compete with the Montenegrin army, and it is not worth it.

Therefore, on this issue, the Bohai Prefecture is very worried about Yu being unwise and acting foolishly.

Hearing this, Yu Buzhi's smile faded, with a look of shock and displeasure.

"If you send troops to attack me, do I still have to compensate them?"

Several people in the Bohai Prefecture suddenly began to beat drums in their hearts and began to do ideological work one after another.

Feng Ji coughed dryly and said: "Well, the Black Mountain Army is called an official army, but it is actually a rogue bandit. It has always been them who rob others, and no one else robs them. The Feiyu leader sent troops to rob people, and although the profit was not much, it was

The Montenegrin Army suffered a lot of facial damage, otherwise it would not have sent troops to invade. It is inevitable to compensate them."

Chen Lin said: "It is better to quell the war than to let the soldiers bleed needlessly."

Xun Chen said: "In order to make a living for the common people, I hope the Lord of Wu Zhi City will be more generous."

Yu Wuzhi remained silent...

Yuan Shao and others were anxious and uneasy, but Yu Buzhi gave them the impression yesterday that he seemed to be very dissatisfied with the invasion of the Black Mountain Army, and seemed to have the ridiculous idea of ​​repaying blood with blood. Yuan Shao would not be so reckless, and the Bohai Prefecture was very

I'm curious where Yu Buzhi got this confidence from. I guess Zhulu Ling has never suffered any losses in foreign wars. In addition, the Black Mountain Army's last sneak attack on Feiyu Ling suffered a disastrous defeat, which led to someone's huge expansion.

Even though they were anxious, these people from the Bohai Prefecture did not dare to talk too much.

Yesterday, Yu Buzhi left a distinct character mark on them: self-righteous country bumpkins.

Unfortunately, I met a country bumpkin who talked too much, which might have the opposite effect.

Feng Ji turned his attention to Xu Shu for help.

In the exchange last night, Xu Shu showed wisdom and magnanimity, which even the emperor admired. He believed that Xu Shu must understand the stakes and also knew how difficult it was to operate the Bohai Prefecture. At this time, perhaps only Xu Shu could

It is not wise to persuade Yu to change his mind.

Feng Ji looked at Xu Shu, who quickly noticed.

The eyes of the two wise men touched each other, and nothing was said.

Xu Shu nodded slightly and said: "My Lord, although our Feiyu Territory is not afraid of the invasion of the Black Mountain Army, the continuous war has affected the lives of the people of Feiyu Territory, but it is also very inconvenient. In the opinion of my subordinates, since the Grand Administrator intends to mediate,

Let me Zhulu Ling turn the war with the Black Mountain Army into friendship. It is a kind intention, so you might as well follow it."

Yu Buzhi said: "I know the prefect has good intentions, but he is unwilling to compensate the Black Mountain Army."

"We kidnapped people first, so it is natural to compensate them. Moreover, it is a fact that Heishan is strong and Zhuilu is weak. Spending a small amount of money to exchange for the peaceful development of Feiyu Territory and giving Feiyu Territory the opportunity to continue to bring benefits to the territory is not better than letting the soldiers

Are we fighting desperately against the Black Mountain Army? My lord has always been kind to the soldiers and civilians of Zhulu, and he should not bear to let the Zhulu soldiers shed their blood in vain. So, what does it mean to give the Black Mountain Army a small amount of compensation?"

Yu Buzhi was very upset: "Yuan Zhi is right, but the Montenegrin army sneaked up on us and gave them benefits for free. I always feel a little humiliated."

Xu Shu laughed: "My lord, the Black Mountain Army must have felt the same way when they found out that the villagers were taken captive."

The fish hesitated for a moment.

Seeing that Yu Bu Zhi was at a loss for words, Xu Shu continued: "I don't kidnap people, and they don't offend me. Everything has a cause and effect."

"With the strength of the Black Mountain Army, it is certainly vulgar to attack the Flying Fish Territory by surprise. It is nothing more than a direct complaint, which is understandable."

"The current plan is to make peace rather than start a war. The prefect intends to help the Zhulu Territory get rid of the threat of the Montenegrin Army. I think this is the Zhulu Territory's luck. As for the prefect's proposal to compensate the Black Mountain Army, I also think it is necessary for the situation.

.Most of the Black Mountain Army are desperadoes and lawless. My lord does not need to argue with them. I think it is worth it for my subordinates to give some property in exchange for the long-term peace of Feiyu Territory."

Yu Buzhi thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I'd like to ask the prefect to mediate."

Feng Ji and others burst into tears.

Yu Buzhi still has some understanding people around him, and fortunately he has Xu Yuanzhi who is willing to listen. It is really sad that such a talented person works for a bumpkin.

Still sighing, Yu Buzhi added another sentence, making everyone's anus tighten.

"It's okay to think about it. If the lions of the Black Mountain Army open their mouths and want to slaughter Feiyu Territory like fat sheep, then ignore them and just start a war. Based on the terrain of Feiyu Territory, I want to break through Feiyu Territory.

Look, how many lives the Montenegrin Army is prepared to take to make up for it. If it offends me, they will send troops from Yizhou to Montenegro to fight guerrillas, let’s see who can’t stand it first!”

Chen Lin hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Lord Unwise. I believe that compensation is nothing more than an attitude, allowing the other party to have a step to climb down. I hope the Black Mountain Army will not go too far, so please relax and don't be anxious."

Yu Bu Zhi nodded.

The Bohai Prefecture came forward to negotiate peace with the Montenegrin Army, and it was settled. Of course, you can first take a tough stance and accuse the other party of crossing the border to gain an advantage, or directly send envoys to negotiate and get down to business. How to do this is entirely up to the Prefecture.

Just wait for the result.

Feng Ji and others remembered one thing: Negotiations must be based on reason and do not make Zhulu Ling pay too much.

This is one of the reasons why Yu Buzhi deliberately pretends to be a fool and a country bumpkin.

The results will vary greatly depending on how much effort you put into mediating and negotiating with the Montenegrin Army.

It is most economical for the Bohai Prefecture to reach an agreement by paying a large amount of compensation. The result they want is "peace" and they don't care how much they pay, because it is not the Bohai Prefecture but Zhulu Ling who pays the bill. When they encounter Yu Buzhi, a fool,

People, bumpkins, and militants will get angry if they are given too much, and they may end up losing everything, dragging Yuan Shao out of the frying pan.

Another reason is related to Yuan Shao.

Coming from a well-known family, he is good at litigating. Yu Buzhi is not used to this, and fearing that he will accidentally make a mistake, he simply labels himself as "a fool", "stubborn", "warlike", etc. to build a protective shield.

When the banquet was coming to an end, Yuan Shao finally mentioned Zhao Bu. Yuan Shao told Yu Buzhi that he had heard the greetings from Zhao Bu's prefect and asked about Zhao Bu's current situation.

When Fengji brought him back to Zhaobu, it had the meaning of "clinging to him". When he came back and talked about it, everyone generally thought it was a bit fictitious.

The Bohai Prefecture did not doubt Zhao Bu's sincerity in wanting to join Yuan Shao. He was now extremely isolated and desperate to find a backer. At first, he had publicly claimed to participate in the crusade, but although he never went to the war zone, the Kanto princes understood Zhao Bu's intention.

Under special circumstances, we admit that he is one of the princes who caused the problem. Now when there is a problem, it is not surprising that Yuan Shao is thought of first.

Both of them are governors, but their background, status and influence are very different.

What's more, Yuan Shao is the leader of the Guandong princes alliance, and Zhao Bu is theoretically one of them.

But the problem is that the two people are not that far apart. If they are closer, they can hug each other to keep warm and help each other. But they are so far away. It would take several months to send messengers to communicate back and forth. What is the real meaning of the so-called surrender? There are no real benefits, just support.

Zhao Bu will definitely make Liu Yan dissatisfied, and he will have a quarrel with a Zhou Mu who is a member of the Han clan for no reason. It is not a good deal no matter how you look at it.

Yuan Shao only asked about Zhao Bu at this time because he was hesitant about Zhao Bu's intention to surrender.

If Yuan Shao didn't ask again, Yu Buzhi would take the initiative to mention it.
To be continued...
