Chapter 129 Negotiations with Red Lotus Demon Moon
() A good man has his ambitions in all directions, and a hero chooses his master to serve. Although he has a relationship with Hua Lao, it is still difficult to conquer Hua Xiong.
After all, Qin Xiaobai's power is still too small. Even if he becomes the peak master, he will only be on an equal footing with Hua Xiong. The one who is more powerful than Hua Xiong is just a mere music leader.
Moreover, Mr. Hua once said that he was just a recommendation agent. Whether Hua Xiong was willing to recruit for him still depended on whether Hua Xiong himself was willing or not.
He is too eager now. Once he is rejected, it will be even more difficult to conquer him in the future. So Qin Xiaobai remained silent, pretending not to know the matter, and asked Mr. Hua: "How sure is Mr. Hua that he can persuade that person?"
Ye Xiong united with us and sent troops to the north."
"My lord has also said that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, so I am fully confident that Ye Xiong will respond in the north and send troops to help." Old Hua stroked his beard and smiled, as if he had a plan in mind.
After hearing this, everyone all looked sideways at Mr. Hua and praised him. Qin Xiaobai had just said that there was only a 70% certainty that he would go there in person. Everyone knew about Mr. Hua and knew that he would not exaggerate at will, let alone this matter.
It's a matter of life and death for everyone.
Qin Xiaobai nodded. He naturally believed that Mr. Hua would go and marry him. In addition, he was convinced that Hua Xiong would send troops to help, so he struck while the iron was hot: "Mr. Hua is almost certain that Ye Xiong will form an alliance with me."
, and after defeating here, they will attach themselves to Heifeng Mountain together."
"This..." Hua Lao originally looked confident, but after hearing this, his face suddenly turned bitter, and he said with a hint of bitterness: "It is not difficult to form an alliance, but it is too difficult to join the Black Wind Bandits with the lord.
Yes, only less than 50% sure."
"If I go in person, it will be less than 30%, and Hua Lao can get 50%. It is already very good. Besides, this matter is not urgent. If it doesn't happen now, we can discuss it later." Qin Xiaobai affirmed to Hua Lao, but issued an order.
Li Wei opened many trade routes in Heifeng Mountain and was familiar with the terrain of Heifeng Mountain. He led more than 300 soldiers of his headquarters to escort Hua Lao through the trails and went on an envoy to Fenghuifeng.
Wu Ba led his headquarters of more than 200 bandits, Zhang Yi led the Thirteenth Hou's tribe of more than 400 bandits, Zhang Yu led Gao Cao's tribe of more than 300 bandits, and the headquarters of more than 1,000 troops were led by Qin Wei and Qin Yan respectively.
Five hundred, Qin Xiaobai himself commanded the overall situation, and one hundred town cavalry directly under his command.
Wudu Peak leads to the other peaks of Heifeng Mountain. There are five entrances and exits in total. The situation is not clear yet. The strength of the five parts is different. Each of them will guard an entrance and exit. Qin Xiaobai will first lead a hundred town cavalry to Xiaodu Peak.
Negotiate, and after returning, direct the various ministries to fight.
After the order was issued, everyone agreed and retreated to prepare to leave. Qin Xiaobai led a hundred town cavalry to Xiaodu Peak, and sixty or seventy people's cavalry were placed on the fifth peak to guard the logistics team.
Qin Xiaobai, a logistics team of more than a thousand people, was handed over to Baozi Xishi to manage.
Bao Xishi went through the Xishi Baozi shop owner to manage dozens of people, to the general manager of three stores to manage hundreds of people, and now more than 300 people manage the physical and food logistics department. They are already very skilled in logistics management. Moreover, they are the first to follow
Qin Xiaobai, one of Qin Xiaobai's most trusted NPCs, handed over the entire logistics department to Baozi Xishi, and he was completely relieved.
In this way, more than 2,000 mountain bandit combat troops and more than 1,000 logistics troops were put into operation. Qin Xiaobai also led a hundred town cavalry to Xiaodu Peak.
Time passes very quickly. From the time the dungeon was opened to now, half an hour has passed in the blink of an eye. In half an hour, troops will be dispatched from the five peaks of Black Wind Mountain. In another one to three hours, troops and horses will arrive at Wudu Peak one after another. Time is running out.
Fortunately, Xiaodu Peak is adjacent to Wudu Peak. Qin Xiaobai soon led the town cavalry to reach their destination. After being notified by the messenger, they entered the interior of Xiaodu Peak.
Xiaodu Peak is very resistant to foreigners, and very little information comes from it. Even though it is adjacent to Wudu Peak, not even Li Wei's business has touched this place.
Therefore, after entering the interior, Qin Xiaobai was surprised to find that all the soldiers in Xiaodu Peak were female soldiers, and the number of refugees was almost swollen, at least more than 20,000.
This made Qin Xiaobai wonder in his heart: "Could it be that Red Lotus Demon Moon got the position of the Peak Master of Xiaodu Peak by helping Heifeng Mountain to adopt and nurture the refugees? Then where did Red Lotus Demon Moon get so much food and grass?"
With doubts, Qin Xiaobai came to the main peak of Xiaodu. Since he was not allowed to lead troops up the mountain, he left a hundred soldiers at the foot of the mountain and set foot on the main peak alone.
"You dare to come here at this time and go up to my main peak alone. I really don't know if you are smart and brave or stupid." Red Lotus Demon Moon has been waiting for a long time. As soon as Qin Xiaobai arrived at the top of the main peak, she appeared
She stepped out, followed by dozens of female swordsmen, who drew their swords and surrounded Qin Xiaobai.
"If you attack Wudu Peak or kill me, the Lord of Honglian Peak will not get any benefits. On the contrary, there will be a lot of benefits. The Lord of Red Lotus Peak is a smart man. I believe you must understand this very well."
Qin Xiaobai's heart was beating fast, but on the surface he looked calm and calm, and said calmly to Red Lotus Demon Yue Feng Qingyun.
"What's the benefit?" Red Lotus Demon Moon asked straightforwardly without mincing words.
"Three hundred thousand dollars." Qin Xiaobai's answer was very straightforward.
Honglian Yaoyue shook her head, but waved her hand to let the female swordsmen behind her retreat. She had obviously seen Qin Xiaobai's sincerity, but was not satisfied with the price.
"Fifty thousand dollars." Qin Xiaobai frowned slightly and revealed another price.
"You have also seen me as a refugee all over the mountains and plains, and you know that what I want is not money." The black mass of refugees under the finger peak of Red Lotus Demon Moon shook his head again.
"I don't have enough food left at home. If the Lord of Honglian Peak is in urgent need, I can barely scrape together some. I wonder how many stones the Lord of Honglian Peak needs?" Qin Xiaobai frowned. Although he has two thousand stones of food and grass, he is not rich.
After all, winter is about to begin, but this time life and death are at stake, and food and grass matters can be figured out later. The foreigner must be stabilized first.
"What I want is not food and grass, but population. You buy my people." Honglian Yaoyue said directly.
"Population? How many people?" Qin Xiaobai was slightly surprised, and then understood what Red Lotus Demon Moon meant. She couldn't afford to feed so many refugees, and asking him for food and grass was only a drop in the bucket, and it couldn't last long, so she wanted to kill this population.
Give him part of the burden.
"Eight thousand, how about it?" Red Lotus Demon Moon asked tentatively. She did not expect Qin Xiaobai to really buy eight thousand people. Now there is a shortage of food in Heifeng Mountain Peak. If Qin Xiaobai hadn't robbed part of Xiaochi County,
According to Liangcao’s information, she would not forcefully sell people to Qin Xiaobai.
But even so, she doesn't think Qin Xiaobai can really buy 8,000 people. He just raises the price first. You must know that 8,000 people consume a lot. Even Xiaochi County only has 10,000 people in the county, and its grain harvesting
After all the looting, there was barely enough food for a population of 8,000.
Qin Xiaobai was shocked when he heard it for the first time, then he frowned and thought for a moment, and finally took a deep breath and said: "Eight thousand is eight thousand, I want them all."
"All...want it?" This time it was Red Lotus Yaoyue's turn to be surprised...
