Luo Jing felt that in front of two scoundrels, he was really a innocent and kind person, and he could not be as good as he could be.

In his opinion, it is unfair for guys like Li Chi and Tang Piddi to go out without being struck by lightning.

"You two continue to sing and reunite."

Luo Jingdao snorted and said, "You know that I am a person. I took the initiative to talk to me. If you can't talk to me, it's useless for you two to play."

Tang Pidian looked at Li Chi and said, "You are right."

Li Chi asked: "What's the sentence?"

Tang Piddi said: "The sentence that should have eaten first."

Li Chi stood up and said, "Then let's go to have dinner first. This should be a protracted negotiation. Let's have lunch first. After lunch, talk in the afternoon. If the talk is not done well, eat dinner. We will continue tomorrow. We will talk with sincerity. We can't talk for three or five months."

Luo Jing said: "I don't like being threatened. No matter who it is, I shouldn't talk to me in this way."

Li Chi said: "Which aspect?"

Luo Jingdao: "All aspects."

Li Chi smiled and said, "There are two things I said just now that I can see as threats, one is meal and the other is time."

Luo Jing: "If things are not discussed well, you won't have food or time."

Tang Pidian said: "What's wrong with him."

Li Chi nodded: "I just started to be sensational, but now I pretend to be stern. It's cold and hot. It's true that I'm sick."

Luo Jing sat on the chair, sulking, and laughed for a long time: "It should be what he owed you in his previous life, let's have a walk and have a meal!"

Li Chi said to Tang Pidian: "In his previous life, he must have been a disbelief, and you were his little wife, so he would have no tricks on you in this life."

Tang Pidian: "If you hadn't been a vixen in your previous life, you wouldn't have been able to say this."

Li Chi: "What's the solution?"

Tang Pidian said: "Obviously he is better to you. Most stinky men are better to you stinky vixen."

Li Chi looked at Luo Jing and said, "Ha, a passionate man!"

Luo Jing: "Can you two stop acting? Why are you getting more and more addicted?"

The three of them left the study and came to the living room to sit down. Luo Jing ordered people to serve the dishes. Soon, the exquisite dishes were served. Obviously, Luo Jing had already ordered people to prepare the meal.

Li Chi said: "Look, we misunderstood others."

Tang Pidian said: "It's okay, you are a vixen, it's your nature to mess around."

Li Chi said: "Ha, a virtuous woman."

Tang Pidian: "..."

The three of them took their seats, and Luo Jing gave them two full of wine. After sitting down, his tone of speaking was slightly relaxed than before.

"If you eat and drink, you should say that since you have said that no one dares to attack Jizhou for several years, why don't you go ahead? If you don't accept it at this time, it will fall into the hands of others in the future. If you rob it again, countless casualties will be killed or injured."

Li Chi said: "I don't want it, but I can't."

After taking a sip of wine, he said, "What I said was something I have carefully calculated. In a few years, there were indeed no strong foreign enemies to attack Jizhou. But now my troops are better than Jizhou. I am at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, farming, herding sheep, herding cattle and raising horses. When the enemy comes, I will enter the mountain."

"But if I come to Jizhou, I can't protect the fertile fields outside. They are empty on all sides, and they are all fields. In Yanshan, I can guard the mountain roads, and can thousands of troops defend Jizhou?"

Li Chi said seriously: "I didn't mean to tease you or refute you. I have to think about the eight thousand soldiers. How could eight thousand people defend such a big city? A circle of walls in the east, west, south and north, and eight thousand people were distributed up, and there was no reserve team."

"One and a half!"

Luo Jing looked at Li Chi and said, "You only need to stay for a year and a half."

Li Chi narrowed his eyes slightly. He looked at Luo Jing, but did not ask why, can an old fox like him still not understand Luo Jing’s thoughts?

From the beginning of the negotiations, it seemed like laughing and scolding, but in fact, many of the words were tested against each other in laughing and scolding.

It is not impossible for Li Chi to defend Jizhou, but it is just a matter of time. If it is within a time that Li Chi can accept, it is definitely a good thing for Ning Jun.

According to Li Chi's calculations, Yang Xuanji of Shuzhou was not a match for Prince Wu, but Yang Xuanji had sufficient troops and was very powerful. Prince Wu could only defeat him, but it was extremely difficult to wipe him out.

Once the war is unfavorable, Yang Xuanji will immediately retreat to Shuzhou, and it is difficult for Prince Wu's elite soldiers to be used in the 100,000 mountains.

Yang Xuanji is not the kind of green forest bandit. He is very talented in leading troops to fight, and has the support of wealthy families. He has no shortage of money and food and abundant supplies. If he loses, it will be nothing big for him.

After defeat, he retreated and rested for a year or two, and his strength could be recovered. He was still a prince.

This process will not exceed two years at most, so when Luo Jing said the period of one and a half years, Li Chi understood that Luo Jing knew what he was thinking.

So Li Chi nodded: "Okay."

Luo Jing was stunned.

Li Chi just now refused to agree no matter what. Even if what he said was full of panic, it would be useless. Li Chi just didn't nod.

But now, he had only said a year and a half date, and Li Chi agreed without any hesitation, which was indeed beyond his expectations.

He thought Li Chi would try more benefits, such as asking him for some troops, and the Jizhou Army would have at least 20,000 prisoners.

Although these soldiers are now dispersed in military discipline and have a sluggish morale, they are serious soldiers of the Great Chu Palace, and their qualities are not a problem. They can restore their original combat power in just half a year of training.

So Luo Jing asked in disbelief: "Agree?"

Li Chi nodded: "I agree."

He smiled and said, "After you lead the army to leave, I will recruit soldiers in Jizhou, but your Youzhou army flag is still hanging on the city wall."

Tang Pidian said: "For others, one and a half years, it may be just a blink of an eye and nothing can be accomplished, but General Luo should know what it means to me."

Luo Jing thought for a moment and replied: "With your ability, you will recruit soldiers in Jizhou for a year and a half, and no one will interfere and disturb you. If you expand your army comfortably, you can train at least 50,000 elite soldiers to fight."

Tang Pidian said: "So Li Chi said before, "You lead troops to attack Yanzhou, don't be defeated. If there is any setback, your Youzhou army is weak and our Ning army is strong, and the position of host and guest will be changed."

Li Chi said: "So you have to say it in front, and in the open, you won Yanzhou and returned to great victory. Old Tang and I will return Jizhou to you and bring our new recruits back to Yanshan."

Luo Jing was silent for a long time.

If the conversation between these three people is placed between others, it is like a fantasy.

Who would talk about the matter so clearly?

But in this way, three people can tell these things naturally, just like when playing chess, they will tell the other party first no matter what they take next.

"You two want to ask me if it's worth betting?"

Luo Jing slowly breathed out.

This is indeed a problem.

If he doesn't gamble, he will develop with peace of mind in Jizhou. It will be no problem to have 200,000 troops in the future, and there is still a possibility of going south.

But when he had 200,000 troops to go south, perhaps there would be no stage for him in the south of the Yangtze River.

If he bet, he would take Yanzhou within one year, recruit soldiers from Yanzhou, and return to Jizhou with a large number of teams, and then

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

To gather the power of Jizhou, the next step is to go south.

No matter how you think about it, staying in Jizhou and developing honestly is more stable. When troops enter Yanzhou, they are in danger.

However, this is just a problem on the surface... As Li Chi thought, Prince Wu's return to Yuzhou will only last a year and a half at most, and everyone will take advantage of this period of time to plan things.

Go to fight against Yuzhou? There are soldiers left by Prince Wu in Yuzhou, who are the elite Left Wu Guard who have never been defeated.

To attack Qingzhou? The journey is long and crossing mountains and rivers. Not to mention whether you can reach Qingzhou smoothly, Suzhou borders Qingzhou and is closer, so where can the situation be affected by others?

Luojing wants Jizhou and Yanzhou, and takes the two states as the foundation, so that he really has the capital to compete for the world.

The most important thing is that after obtaining Yanzhou, you can go south along the coast and bypass Yuzhou and not meet Prince Wu's elite for the time being.

One and a half years, at most two years. Whether major events can be accomplished in the future depends on whether Luo Jing wants to gamble.

After Luo Jing was silent for a long time, he looked at Li Chi and said, "I will not leave you a soldier. You can defend Jizhou and solve the troops yourself."

Li Chi nodded: "Okay."

Luo Jing said again: "You transport most of the grain and grass in Jizhou, and I transport most of the remaining ones away. Leave some of them, which is only enough for you to last until next year's summer grain harvest."

Li Chi: "Okay."

Luo Jing continued, "If I take down Yanzhou and lead the army back within a year and a half, you will retreat back to Yanshan. If I don't go south, you can't go out of the mountain. If I go south, it's okay for you to return to Youzhou in Jizhou."

Li Chi nodded for the third time: "Okay."

Luo Jing said, "If I have great momentum in the future, I will definitely have that battle with you two. This is something that you and I know."

Li Chi said: "That's the future. If you are willing to come to surrender to me sincerely and call me the head of the family, I will take you in."

Luo Jing curled his lips and said, "If you come to me with a defeat and crying moment, I will give you a bite of food in the army."

He stretched out his hand: "Take a deal?"

Li Chi reached out and high-high with him: "Trade."

Tang Pidi's mouth was smiling.

For Ning Jun, who had only less than 10,000 people, this was the best time to develop. Under the current situation, there is no better choice than this.

If Tang Piddh is given a year and a half, he can train at least 50,000 soldiers who are good at fighting. If he goes crazy, God knows how much he can gain.

At that time, even if the Ning army retreats to Yanshan, it can attack and retreat or defend, only one and a half years later, and its strength will be expanded by more than five times.

If Ning Jun still stayed behind Yanshan to develop for this year and a half, how could he develop these five times his strength?

Therefore, this result can be regarded as a joy for Li Chi and Luo Jing.

Luo Jing smiled and said, "Then let's see which one of you or me will be faster in the next few years."

Li Chi said: "Hurry, it may not be a good thing."

Luo Jing disagreed and said, "This world trend is no longer like the one who comes back a few years ago. Now in this situation, it is the right way to take action first, and those who come back will be controlled by others."

Li Chi smiled but said nothing.

"Have a meal."

Luo Jing picked up the wine glass and said, "After drinking this glass of wine today, I will return to Youzhou to prepare for war. I will lead my army to Yanzhou in the beginning of next spring. The climate in Yanzhou is cold and bitter. When I can fight, it will be from spring to autumn, so maybe I will be back in less than a year and a half."

Li Chi raised his glass: "Then I wish you a triumphant."

Tang Pidian still smiled and didn't say anything, but he felt happy.

Apart from Jizhou, there are no more three people in the entire Central Plains. You can sit down and negotiate things.
