Chapter 709
: Each has its own thoughts 2
Lu Runxing thought for a long time, finally raised his head and said in a deep voice: "It's good, but Mr. Gao is fickle. He must first use his son as his fortune, and he must also add 100,000 guan of military money. If he agrees, he will be able to negotiate peace!"
Seeing that Lu Run's heart was relieved, Liang Zhen couldn't help but feel secretly happy, but his face seemed embarrassed. He hesitated for a moment before answering: "It's okay to take your son as the quality, but only 300,000 yuan of military money is a matter of fear that the borrower in the city can get it out, but it's a matter of delay!"
"Oh, it's okay. If you can't take it out, a family will send someone to Jiangling to withdraw money!"
"Can I take it out, can I take it out! I dare not work as the general manager!" Liang Zhen originally planned to retreat to avoid the other party's repentance when he found out that his plan had succeeded. After some bargaining, the two agreed that Jingnan would hand over the hostages and military money to the Wu army within three days, and the Wu army must return Shatou and hundreds of prisoners. After the discussion, Lu Runxing personally sent Liang Zhen out of the tent and returned to Jiangling. As soon as Liang Zhen left the tent, Lu Hongkai stepped forward and said, "Criminal, Jiangling is just the food in our army's mouth. That guy clearly made the disaster go east. If our army wins, Gao Laizi will naturally be honest. If the battle situation is stalemate, who knows what tricks the guy will do? The army goes north and cannot leave a root of disaster behind!"
However, Lu Runxing seemed to have not heard his subordinates' advice at all. He turned around and sat on the head of the tent, took a command arrow, and ordered in a deep voice: "Governor Lu, you prepare two thousand soldiers and let them rest well. Let them set off immediately after dark tomorrow and attack Jiangling at night!"
Liang Zhen was stunned by Lu Runxing's sudden order. Lu Runxing smiled and said, "What's wrong? Do you think that guy can fool me with just a few false words? I am Lu Fang's son. I was born in a besieged city. He was not as tall as a sword and went to war with his father. He bullied me young and wanted to use a trick to deceive me, so I took the trick and agreed to peace talks first, so that Gao Jichang was careless, and then beat him up. Twenty-sanlang, you know the rules in the army. I will leave this matter to you, and I can't make any mistakes!"
At this time, Lu Hongkai was full of admiration and gratitude for his superiors. He knew very well that Lu Runxing was going to leave the great contribution of capturing Jiangling to himself. He said in a deep voice: "Please rest assured, Prince, I will release the news, just saying that our army is preparing to withdraw its troops. The news of the night attack was only told before departure that the officers at the top level would definitely be caught off guard by Gao Laizi."
"Not good!" Lu Runxing shook his head and said, "Gao Laizi is an old fox. Although Liang Zhen is his confidant adviser, he may not be able to fool him with this mouth. Besides, it is not common sense to prepare to withdraw troops without even getting the hostages and military pay. Instead, it will arouse his suspicion. You will send two thousand soldiers to show off your power under Jiangling City tomorrow. On the one hand, you will be familiar with the road situation and consume the energy of the defenders. On the other hand, it will make them think that this is a threat to their promise to me, but they will not be prepared!"
When Lu Hongkai heard this, he nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, let's prepare now!"
Jiangling, Jingnan Jiedu Mansion.
"Minister of Wu Jun really agreed to the peace?" Gao Jichang asked, his face full of disbelief. Then he realized that his question had just been very rude and quickly explained: "Grandmaster, it's not that a certain family can't trust you, but this matter is too easy! The Wu Jun came so vigorously, and he wanted to negotiate peace. He always felt that it was unreasonable!"
Liang Zhen smiled slightly, Gao Jichang's doubts were expected. In ancient China, diplomacy was called "Zhe Chong Zunzu". Zhe Chong was a chariot that referred to the army, while Zhe Chong was two types of bronze ware that contained wine and meat, which was used to negotiate for banquets. As the name suggests, ancient China recognized the results of diplomatic negotiations for a long time, although they were inseparable from the verbal verbal wares at the banquet, and were determined by the comparison of military strength between the two sides. Since the Wu army occupied such a large military
Advantages: Unless you hit a wall on the battlefield, you will not agree to the negotiations so easily. After all, the victory obtained at the negotiating table is not as thorough as that obtained on the battlefield. He coughed softly and said, "Ming Gong said that at the beginning, the front governor of the Wu army was very rampant and refused to discuss peace. Someone said that if the peace agreement was not reached, Gao Jiedu would take a light boat, take a treasure, and go west to Shu, burn Jiangling City to a white land, and they could only get an empty city!"
Hearing this, Gao Jichang couldn't help but scream. This was something he had never known before Liang Zhen set out. Then he understood that this was a strategy for Liang Zhen's negotiations. Gao Jichang's eyes swept across Liang Zhen's neck, wrapped in a white cloth, and could vaguely see black and red blood stains inside. He immediately understood, stepped forward and pointed at the wound and asked, "Could this injury be the time-?"
"It's okay, it's just a trivial matter!" Liang Zhen smiled slightly, changed the topic, and said, "It's just a promise to hand over the son of Ming Gong, but it's a transcendence!"
"That's true, otherwise they wouldn't be willing to withdraw their troops!" Gao Jichang waved his hand and signaled that Liang Zhen didn't need to care. In his opinion, a son was nothing compared to the safety of his number one adviser. At this time, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and looked up and said, "It's reasonable to say that the Wu thieves seized Jiangling not for the wealth of the people in the city. If they only had an empty city, they had to face the upstream Shu army. There were disadvantages but no benefits. It would be better to keep it for the future!" Thinking of this, Gao Jichang looked up and asked, "Premier, you have seen Lu Runxing with your own eyes this time. I wonder what kind of person this person is?"
Liang Zhen heard Gao Jichang's question, and his face showed a look of memories. After a while, he replied: "This man was only in his prime, so he led a hundred thousand troops. He observed his military appearance, acted in an orderly manner, and his subordinates bowed down to obey orders. Although he inherited the inheritance of his ancestors, he was definitely not the mediocre person born in the deep palace and was good at the hands of a woman. Lu Renzhi sent his son to Jingzhou, which was clearly for him to accumulate a team and inherit the great cause a hundred years later. But—" Speaking of this, Liang Zhen's meaning was broken, but he stopped.
"Just what?" Gao Jichang asked.
"Maybe because of age, this person is generous and powerful, but his authority is a bit lacking. But this is nothing. As long as there are a few advisers around you, you can make up for it!"
When Gao Jichang heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "What my ancestors said is that it would be amazing that guy is only in his early twenties and can command a 100,000 army. If he was like Lu Renzhi, wouldn't he be a monster? Such a father and son will give him a way out for the world!"
Hearing Gao Jichang say this, Liang Zhen couldn't help but laugh: "Ming Gong is saying that maybe I'm a little worried."
Since the Wu army was in a hurry, both of them felt extremely stressed. Now that the peace agreement has been successful, they only felt that they had already gone 60 to 70% of them, and they suddenly felt that they were much lighter. Gao Jichang smiled and said, "Although the peace agreement was successful, these 300,000 guan is not a small amount. Although there are some numbers in the mansion, the second gift of summer and autumn in the army is indispensable. You have to leave some backs, so you have to trouble your ancestors to borrow some from the wealthy businessmen in the city, and you will pass this level first!"
The next day, all the wealthy families in Jiangling City received an invitation, and the signature was Gao Jiedu. Although everyone knew that the posts at the critical moment of the Jiedu Mansion must have no good banquets or good meetings, either levies or Latin. But under the eaves, they had to bow their heads. The martial artist grabbed the knife handle and refused to eat it, the wine would taste bad! So at noon, all the wealthy families who received the invitation appeared in the lobby of the Jiedu Mansion.
Liang Zhen stood in the hall, with a white shirt floating, and a smile on his face, bowed to everyone: "I'm going to come here today, but Ming Gong has a difficult situation. I want to ask you for help!"
A scream immediately rose in the hall, and everyone here tried their best to show their poor appearance. A few guys who had prepared in advance even lifted up their robes to reveal the patches on the lower collar inside, and shouted loudly that their homes were too many and under the burden. What everyone saw on weekdays was just an outer skin, and the inner flesh had long been empty. Please don’t listen to rumors outside, and the hall was quarreled for a while.
Liang Zhen frowned and made a gesture to the civil servant beside him. The civil servant was about to go down the hall when a roar came from a distance, as if countless shouts were mixed in the sky. Liang Zhen looked at the civil servant in confusion. He had expected that these wealthy families would definitely not bleed so easily, so he arranged fifty soldiers in the next courtyard in advance, so that they could rush to the hall as soon as they received the signal to threaten the wealthy families and force them to pay honestly. But before he could send the signal, why did he start to activate it? Could it be that something went wrong?
Liang Zhen was shocked and suspicious, but a man rushed in outside, shouting loudly: "Mr. Liang, no, there are thousands of Wu troops outside the city, robbing the people outside the city, and bombarding the city!" As if to confirm the man's words, the watchtower in the house near the city wall was hit by a lead bullet, broken into two pieces, and fell to the roof of a house next to it, which immediately caused a burst of exclamation from the people in the hall.
"The Wu thief killed in heaven, that's my family!" A middle-aged man in green clothes got up, rolled and rushed out. People on both sides hurriedly pulled the man and persuaded him: "Mr. Xu, the shells don't have eyes. Let's wait until they are safe before going back!" The man in green clothes had no choice but to lie on the ground and cry.
