When Chen Xi and Hua Xiong took away all the cavalry, Guo Jia and Guan Yu also received Zhou Yu’s letter of strikeout. ≯＞≥≦
Guo Jia and Guan Yu can also understand this. It is really difficult to continue the internal struggle in this situation, so when Zhou Yu's letter to stop the war came, Guo Jia and Guan Yu also had the mentality of going north.
In Xuzhou, Chen Deng came to Li Yan's tent with only a few personal guards.
"Chen Yuanlong, you entered my camp so carelessly, are you not afraid that I will kill you here and seize Xuzhou?" Li Yan said sharply when he saw Chen Deng coming.
"If you, Li Zhengfang, only have such a vision, I, Chen Deng, might as well die here." Chen Deng said coldly, and then sat aside without caring.
Li Yan glanced at Chen Deng, and when he saw that he was not frightened, he laughed loudly and said, "I underestimated Yuan Long. Are you here to stop fighting with me?"
"The Northern Xiongnu invaded. Deng has the important task of governing one side and cannot go to the north, but he still won't do such a thing as holding back the Han Dynasty." Chen Deng said impassionedly. Of course, this kind of words is also a squeeze on Li Yan.
.
"If you let me pass, I, Li Yan, have nothing to offer, so I can still donate my life for the country." Li Yan said coldly.
"Hey, Li Zhengfang, based on your words, I will let you go, but you must not wait for new orders from your boss." Chen Deng said with a smile. Li Yan is indeed a character, but Li Yan's own
There are some character issues.
Li Yan looked at Chen Deng coldly, and finally gave up on this seemingly wonderful idea. After all, Zhou Yu was indeed not a simple person.
"Let's stop fighting. I won't let you leave so easily next time." Li Yan said coldly, "Come and see us off!"
"Oh, you still can't pass Xiapi City next time." Chen Deng said unforgivingly.
After the news of the Northern Xiongnu's southward invasion spread, all the wars in the Han Dynasty came to an end with the peace talks between the two sides. For the first time in the Central Plains since Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, there was a nationwide truce.
"It seems that Sun Ce has also ceased war. We can be stable for a while. Before, we were always worried that Sun Ce would attack Jiaozhou." Shi Yi breathed a sigh of relief after getting the information about distant Jizhou.
"It makes me feel relieved." Shi Xie, who was sitting in the main seat, also felt relieved after hearing this. "Sun Bofu has always had great ambitions. If he hadn't been eyeing Jiaozhou covetously, we should have made good friends with him."
"Shishi, we are located in the southeast and cannot go north, but we cannot pretend to be ignorant of the matter of sweeping down the Xiongnu. Moreover, Sun Bofu is a man of outstanding ability, but there is one thing about him that we can use. This man
He is very righteous and we would rather be friends with him now." Yuan Hui stepped forward and bowed.
Shi Xie nodded, and felt that what Yuan Hui said made sense, so he said to his younger brother, "Take two hundred thousand shi of polished rice, one hundred thousand kilograms of meat, one hundred carts of fine wine, and twenty boxes of jewelry, and send someone to give them away."
Sun Bo Fu."
"The governor Bu Ruo wrote a letter to tell Sun Bofu, saying, 'I cannot send troops from Jiaozhou, and I am willing to give military supplies as a gift, but the general will give me a share of the credit for every Xiongnu he kills.'" Yuan Hui smiled at Shi Xie
said.
When Shi Xie heard this, he was puzzled at first, then suddenly realized and laughed immediately. If he just sent something, it would look like he was afraid of the other party. But with this sentence, it was not fear of force, but really doing his best for the Central Plains.
Immediately Shi Xie stood up, walked around in circles several times, and finally said, "Although I, Shi Xie, are old and frail, and Jiaozhou is thousands of miles away from the Xiongnu, the Han and the Huns are not at odds with each other. How can I, Shi Xie, be able to survive alone?"
How can goodness be underestimated by outsiders?"
"Send my order, and give another copy to Liu Taiwei and Cao Sikong according to the amount given to Sun Bofu. Send it to me with great fanfare, and tell them that I, the Shixie people, can't go, but my heart will definitely
We can get there! If it’s not enough, I still have it here!” Shi Xie said with a laugh.
"The governor is wise." Yuan Hui said with admiration.
[Okay, although I, Yuan Hui, can't go, I still have no problem deceiving someone who pays for food. Anyway, in addition to the inconvenience, there is really no shortage of food and other things in Jiaozhou.] Yuan Hui has no pressure.
think.
Speaking of which, before coming to Jiaozhou, Yuan Hui's impression of Jiaozhou was that it was a remote place with poor mountains and rivers. However, after arriving, he discovered that although this place is indeed evil, it is really a good place for farming.
Just scatter a handful of seeds and you can harvest them at the right time, and there is no problem in planting them twice a year. Moreover, there is no shortage of salt in the sea, so you can catch fish and jewelry. The Tu emperor Shi Xie is actually very good.
We have money and food, but this damn place is short of people.
Although it is not certain how much savings Shi Xie has now, in the five or six years since Yuan Hui came to Jiaozhou, it seems that Shi Xie has saved enough grain to keep the people of Jiaozhou from farming for several years. However, the food from this place cannot be transported out.
.
This is the most depressing part of Shi Xie. Not to mention transporting it out, even transporting it within Jiaozhou is very difficult. This morning I cut a road in the woods, and when I came back in the afternoon, the road was already overgrown.
vine.
Therefore, Shi Xie's grain savings were hoarded in various places. As for why he was able to take out so much at once this time, wasn't it because he wanted to fight with Sun Ce, so he shipped all the grain over, but it has not been finished yet.
,By the way, Nanhai County has been depleted due to the recent shipment of too much grain and dried fish...
This is enough to show that Shi Xie is wealthy, but this is the basis for Yuan Hui to convince Shi Xie. If there was not a lot of food, Shi Xie would not be so easy to give food as he said.
However, Shi Xie flirted with the idea of sending military supplies, but after flirting, Shi Xie realized that he had no way of sending these things out. He said that if it was so easy to send things out in Jiaozhou, he would have opened Jiaozhou long ago.
"If the governor does not give up, leave this matter to me. And since the governor puts the Han Dynasty and the world first, he will be respected by others." Yuan Huineng deceived Shi Xie into paying for food. Naturally, he had figured out how to luck out.
Go back, otherwise what nonsense will you say?
"Then I'll leave this matter entirely to Gong Yao." Shi Xie said to Yuan Hui with great satisfaction. Yuan Hui didn't say anything superfluous. He would do this matter beautifully, although he was indeed doing it.
He deceived Shi Xie, but seeing that he had spent so much money and food, Yuan Hui promised to buy him a good family background and good reputation.
Although Yuan Hui's Yuan family is not as wealthy as Yuan Shu's Yuan family, his ancestors still had three nobles and nine ministers. Although they are now ruined, they still have friends all over the world.
Therefore, after Shi Xie entrusted the matter to Yuan Hui, it didn't take long for a large number of sea ships from Nanhai County to arrive from the north. After loading enough grain and dried meat for a hundred thousand troops for half a year, they
Start heading north.
Speaking of this, I have to say that the Chamber of Commerce actually has no shortage of sea-going ships. Although it is impossible to carry out ocean transportation, transport ships traveling a few hundred meters near the coast can still be purchased from 6 companies. Well, Chen Xi didn't want to pay Zhou Yu.
It is an upgraded version of this kind of merchant ship. (To be continued.) 8
