"No need to be so formal here." The man in black got off his horse and said very kindly.
"Your Majesty, how is things going?" the burly man asked.
"If, as Gong Jin expected, Zhuge Liang did have a conspiracy, I have already told Liu Bei about it. Liu Bei will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it. Now, China and Han will have to really go to war." Hei
The man in the clothes was none other than Sun Ce, the emperor of Wu State, known as the Little Overlord, "Youping, the matter here is over, it's time for us to leave."
"Nuo!" The burly man was Zhou Tai, "Your Majesty, the Han Kingdom has an sworn hatred against us. Isn't it too much for us to help the Han Kingdom like this... Although the governor's strategy is good, after all, the Huaxia Kingdom is the
Our allies..."
Sun Ce said: "Youping, you must always remember one sentence, there are no permanent enemies, no permanent friends, only interests. If Gong Jin had not seen through Zhuge Liang's thoughts, once Zhuge Liang and Gao Fei reached a consensus, then
Our plan to occupy the entire Jingzhou will become a bubble.
Shadow. Although Liu Bei is my father-killing enemy, for the sake of the future of Wu State, let him live a little longer for the time being. Let’s go and return to Jiangling quickly. Now Gan Ning’s navy has arrived in Jiangling, and the troops of Huaxia and Han
This war is coming, and we must make arrangements."
"According to the order!"
The group of people did not stop, got on their horses one after another, and left Xiangyang in the severe cold weather, trampling on the white snow.
………………
At dusk, a thin mist appeared on the Han River. Zhuge Liang was riding a small boat and slowly slid towards the center of the river.
On the opposite bank, Gao Fei also set off at this time, rocking the oar alone and admiring the snowy scenery on the river, while slowly sailing towards the center of the river.
About half an hour later, the two canoes met in the middle of the river. At this time, there was auspicious snow in the sky, which blocked the sight of both sides of the river. In addition, there was fog on the river, so it did not attract attention at all.
Gao Fei stood alone on the bow of the boat. When he saw Zhuge Liang approaching in the boat, he smiled and said: "Wolong, Wolong, it's really rare to see him!"
Zhuge Liang looked at Gao Fei and saw that Gao Fei was dressed very casually, looked very simple, and his hair was very short, as if he had been tortured, which made him not only have a feeling for this powerful emperor in China.
New understanding. He saw that Gao Fei was about thirty years old, but there was no trace of beard under his chin. He was shaved cleanly, and a scar on his cheek showed his experience in the battlefield. This image was completely subverted.
The understanding of Gao Fei in his mind.
"It is also a blessing for Kong Ming to have the honor to meet His Majesty the Great Emperor of China of China today." Zhuge Liang said politely.
"Haha, let's not say any more polite words. Let's get straight to the point and talk about business." Gao Fei saw that Zhuge Liang was very young and elegant. The boatman behind him had been wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat with his head lowered very low, but
Can't see the face.
The distance between the two boats was about three meters, but the two boats were the only ones in Jiang's heart, so he could hear the two people talking more clearly.
Zhuge Liang saw that Gao Fei didn't have the airs of an emperor at all, so he said: "Very good, I just want to know whether your majesty will agree to my three conditions?"
"The first one can be agreed, the second one is subject to discussion, and the third one is difficult to accept." Gao Fei's thinking was very clear and his answer was very concise.
"Hahaha, as I expected. So, let's discuss the second one. The third one is an additional condition. After the second condition is agreed, we can talk about the third condition." Zhuge Liang said.
"Okay. Well, since it is a negotiation, I think you should make concessions. This negotiation is like buying something. There is a relationship of interest between buying and selling. The seller wants to sell at a higher price.
Naturally, I will earn more, but for the buyer, it is naturally better to pay less. I want to hear your opinion first..." Gao Fei only said this, after all, first find out what the other party wants.
, only then can you have your own countermeasures.
Gao Fei was a small boss in his previous life, and he was very good at doing business, so he also had certain attainments in the art of negotiation. In fact, now Zhuge Liang is equivalent to a seller, and he is equivalent to a buyer. How to buy with a small amount of money?
Finding the most affordable things is what he cares about most.
Zhuge Liang was very surprised by Gao Fei's words, because Gao Fei regarded this matter as a business. This was the first time he had heard of this. Between surrendering and not surrendering, there was actually a transaction.
Relationship, in this case, is really insightful.
"Haha, your majesty's words really opened Kong Ming's eyes. However, this metaphor does make some sense. In this case, I will tell you my lowest price!" Zhuge Liang stopped when he saw a trace of Gao Fei's eyes.
Strange, he stopped talking.
When Gao Fei saw that Zhuge Liang was deliberately trying to tease him, he didn't care and waited there without saying a word.
When Zhuge Liang saw that Gao Fei didn't ask any questions, and it seemed to him that Jingzhou would belong to him whether he surrendered or not, he frowned and thought to himself: "Gao Fei is more terrifying than I thought. His
Ambition can definitely encompass the entire world. Such an emperor is rare to see in a thousand years! When he treats you as a friend, he treats you better than anyone else. When he treats you as an enemy, he treats you more cruelly than anyone else. Such a person
, actually exists!”
In the end, Zhuge Liang was bored and had to continue: "My brother Hu has already held heavy troops. The soldiers in Jiangling and Xiangyang are all in the hands of our brothers. If we want to surrender, we will surrender together. If we want to fight, we will surrender."
We will fight together. I want your Majesty to understand this, I can influence the entire war."
Gao Fei smiled and said: "I also tell you clearly that anyone who influences me to launch a unification war will be trampled under my ruthless iron hoof."
"After destroying Han, should we destroy Wu and Wei and inherit the Han's territory?" Zhuge Liang asked.
"What is a big man? He is just a small corner of the country. I want to lead the Chinese army to conquer a huge empire. You are ignorant. Apart from the Western Regions, what else have you heard of? Do you know how big this world is? I
I want the sun to hang over my empire forever, forming an empire that never sets!"
"The sun never sets on the empire? What's the explanation?" Zhuge Liang heard Gao Fei's sarcasm, but was not angry. Instead, he asked.
"The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and the earth revolves around the sun. Although it is dark here, under your feet and on the other side of the earth, it is daytime. Just like now, we are at dusk, but under our feet, it is daytime.
The person at the other end is Dawn."
"Under our feet? The people at the other end? Aren't they going to walk upside down?" Zhuge Liang was completely confused and found that his knowledge could not keep up with Gao Fei's thinking. He had never understood what Gao Fei was talking about about the earth and what he was talking about under his feet.
Heard it!
"Hehehe, Zhuge Kongming, you compare yourself to Guan Zhong and Le Yi. In fact, to me, you are nothing. I am far more developed than you here. I just think you are smart and want to train you well. If
If you are willing, as long as you surrender to me, I promise to treat you well and give you room to perform.
After the destruction of the Han Dynasty, there are still Wu and Wei countries. If I want to complete the great cause of unification, I will naturally recruit more talents. You are the best among them. If you surrender, you will naturally be reused. If you are not willing to surrender, I will not.
Leaving behind future troubles. Now, I just want to ask you one question, what does this place we are standing have to do with the sky?"
"The sky is round and the earth is round!" Zhuge Liang replied without even thinking.
Gao Fei laughed and said: "You are ignorant, I don't care about you. Let's stop here today. After you go back, think about it again. If you really want to surrender to me, don't negotiate any terms with me. That will only make me look down on you."
.If you don’t want to surrender to me, let’s meet on the battlefield. I can tell you clearly now
Let me tell you, in five days, I will launch a general attack on Xiangyang. When the troops arrive at the city, if you surrender, then you will lose the bargaining chip with me. I will only give you five days to think about it. On the sixth day, at Chen time,
The Chinese army will cross the Han River and attack Xiangyang City with overwhelming force."
After saying that, Gao Fei turned the bow of the boat and rowed away.
"Wait!" Zhuge Liang shouted hurriedly: "If the sky is not round and the earth is not square, what will the world look like?"
Gao Fei stopped the boat, turned around and said to Zhuge Liang: "Qiu, do you know?"
Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "What does that have to do with heaven?"
"The sky is the universe. The place we are in is called the earth. It is a round sphere suspended in the universe. We are one of the nine planets in the solar system. The moon is the satellite of the earth..." Gao Fei Jili Gulu explained to Zhuge Liang
Got some popular science knowledge.
Zhuge Liang interrupted Gao Fei and asked: "If the place we are in is round, why is this place square? Why can you and I stand face to face? Wouldn't the person standing under our feet fall?
Have you gone to your so-called universe?"
"Because the earth has gravity, pulling each of us..." Gao Fei thought for a while and asked: "Have you ever seen the sea?"
"Of course I've seen it!"
"On the sea level, when you see a ship, from far to near, it's actually just your vision. In fact, this is how the ship comes..." Gao Fei made an arc gesture and showed it to Zhuge Liang.
"I don't understand!" Zhuge Liang said.
"I know you don't understand. You don't understand many of what I say. I just want to tell you that the world is very big, and it is not limited to big men. There are many countries out there that you have never seen, and each one of them has its own characteristics.
It is full of magic. If you are willing, I can take you across the ocean to see our feet in the future."
"Underfoot?" Zhuge Liang lowered his head. All he saw was the river, and there was nothing but the river.
Gao Fei said no more, shook the oar and left, shouting to Zhuge Liang: "Zhuge Kongming, I'm waiting for your good news. I know you will definitely come to me! Because only I can let you
Show your true talent!”
Gradually Gao Fei walked away, but Zhuge Liang was still looking at the river at his feet.
"Prime Minister, shall we go back?" asked the boatman wearing a bamboo hat.
