Chapter 489 Cessation of Sanchuan County

Less than two hours later, Bai Mo and Bi Shu gathered again at Sanli Pavilion in the east of Linzi City.

However, last time Bishu gathered, he only invited Bai Mo to play chess. This time, Bai Mo held a real wine banquet...

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Bai Mo told Bi Shu that he had come to Bi Shu for three years, and Bi Shu had expected this.

"Sanchuan County!" Bi Shu did not circle around Bai Mo, and directly revealed his trump card, "As long as the Han State promised to ced Sanchuan County to Chu State, Chu State agreed to send troops to deal with the Huns.

Hu Yan was stunned when he heard this. General was too direct, how could he negotiate such conditions?

Bi Shu's move obviously does not conform to the consistent principle of half-negotiation. In negotiations, one party usually asks for a price everywhere, the other party bargains, and then both parties continue to make compromises and make concessions, and try to negotiate at a price that both parties can accept. How can one show its trump card as soon as Bi Shu starts?

"I'm crazy!" Zhou Guanfu said furiously, "Not mentioning a county, a county, a township, or even a pavilion will not be cedeed to you!" In the Warring States Period, cede land and peace were actually the norm. Even Qin State, before the Wei'an reform, it had repeatedly cede land to the overlord Wei State at that time. What made Zhou Guanfu unhappy was Bi Shu's face.

Bai Mo felt strong pressure, and Bi Shu didn't give him a chance to bargain at all.

During the negotiation, when one party reveals its trump card as soon as it comes up, it means that this party is bound to win the half of the negotiation. In other words, whether Bai Mo agrees or not, Chu is bound to win the Sanchuan County!

Bai Mo must admit that after the fall of Wuguan, the geographical location of the three counties had become very embarrassing, because the Chu army sent troops from Wuguan to attack Hangu Pass. Even if it could not capture Hangu Pass, it could also cut off the connection between Sanchuan County and Guanzhong. In addition, the Chu navy blocked the river waters by the river, Sanchuan County would become a Jedi!

Under the long-term siege and blockade of the Chu army, it is a matter of time before Sanchuan County falls.

Originally, if Lianheng succeeded this time, Bai Mo was not afraid of Chu's consortium's desire for Sanchuan County, he had even considered using Sanchuan County as bait to design a huge trap for Chu. However, now Lianheng has failed, this idea will be shattered. Chu's use of troops to Sanchuan County, the Han State alone cannot resist it.

Especially now that the Huns are preparing to launch a large-scale military force against Hexi, the threat to Guanzhong is too great once Hexi is occupied by the Huns, Guanzhong will have no peace anymore, which forces the Han army to focus more on the fact that the Han army's troops in Hexi were already very tight, so it would be even harder to take care of Sanchuan County.

If the State of Chu takes this opportunity to use troops to Sanchuan County, there are ten things that will be successful.

Although Bai Mo was reluctant to admit it, the huge gap in national strength and military strength between Chu and Han was obvious. After the two major wars last year, Chu State consumed a lot, but it did not hurt the bones. If it was necessary, it would be fine for Chu State to launch a 100,000 army to attack Sanchuan County, but Guanzhong may not be able to draw out one army and one soldier to rescue Sanchuan.

Bi Shu said with a smile: "Senior Brother, Hexi is only a river separated from Guanzhong. Once Yuezhi, Xiu Tu, Hunxie tribes were destroyed by the Huns, then Guanzhong will have to face the endless harassment of the Huns. This result is much better than losing a three-county sanctuary in Guandong. Which one is more important? Senior Brother should be clear, right?"

Zhou Guanfu sneered and said, "Hmph, you're just an alarmist statement. The Huns are just ordinary. Let's not talk about whether they can destroy the Yuezhi tribes and other tribes. Even if they really destroy the Yuezhi tribes and occupy Hexi, it will not be a threat to our great Han Kingdom. In front of my great Han cavalry, the Huns are at most noisy?"

"Is that?" Bi Shu said lightly, "Campion Hou, don't be too confident. I have heard that since the Huns captured tens of thousands of craftsmen from Yan, Zhao and Han, they have used sharp iron swords and excellent cavalry bows. Faced with a large number of well-equipped Hun cavalry, how likely can the Han army cavalry have to win?"

Zhou Guanfu said coldly: "Well, you General Bi will not bother you." Heng!"

Bi Shu smiled and said to Bai Mo again: "Senior brother, I won't hide it from you. The cavalry, one of the three imperial guards of the Great Chu, has completed the assembly. If the Han Kingdom does not cede Sanchuan County, we may have to take it ourselves. However, if the Han Kingdom is willing to cede Sanchuan County, then the cavalry can go to the north of the Mo River and intercept the Huns' nests."

Bai Mo's eyes sterned and said in a deep voice: "Junior brother, do you know where the Huns' nest is?"

At this time, the Central Plains world did not know much about the Huns. They only knew that the Huns were a powerful nomadic people. However, few people in the Central Plains world knew how many populations, how many strong men, how large the territory, and where the Shanyu Court was located, but these were not a secret to Huyan.

Bi Shu just looked at Hu Yan with his eyes, smiling without saying a word, Bai Mo suddenly realized: "Brother, I forgot that the Tianlang under your tent is from the desert."

"Senior brother, just give me some good words." Bi Shu said, "As long as you ceded Sanchuan County, Chu and Han will be able to go unanimously, and you and my brothers can work together to fight the Huns together." After a pause, Bi Shu said, "To be honest, the Huns will sooner or later become the confidant of the Huaxia tribe, and I hope it can be solved as soon as possible."

Bai Mo suddenly fell into a violent struggle. Should he ceded or not?

Ceding will damage the prestige of the Han Dynasty and even more damage to his reputation, but it can be exchanged for the full cooperation of the Chu army. If the Chu army can really take advantage of the situation to destroy the Huns' nests and eliminate the threat of the Huns in one fell swoop, this will undoubtedly be beneficial to the Han country, because from then on, the Han country will no longer have to worry about threats from the north, and the 100,000 troops stationed in Jiuyuan will be able to get rid of the trap!

If you don't cede, the prestige of the Han Dynasty and his personal reputation were preserved, but in the end, the three counties would inevitably be occupied by the Chu army. What's more serious is that the power of the Han country alone may not be able to protect the Yuezhi, Xiu Tu and Hunxie tribes. Once the tribes in Hexi are conquered by the Huns, the result will be disastrous.

A bitter smile suddenly appeared on Bai Mo's lips, and he seemed to have no choice.

Seeing that Bai Mo was hesitant, Zhou Guanfu said anxiously: "Prime Minister, I can't agree!"

"Shengzhi, stop talking." Bai Mo smiled bitterly, shook his head, then stretched out his right hand to Bi Shu, and said, "A promise will come out."

"It's not easy to make a fortune!" Bi Shu stretched out his right hand and slapped Bai Mo hard, and said, "Sanchuan County must complete the transfer within half a month. I will also take the cavalry army across the river and go north to the desert to sweep the Huns............

Ziling, Chu King Palace.

Xiang Zhuang was discussing matters with Bailixian in the study, but Qu Bucai suddenly walked in happily and reported: "King, good news, good news, the general took Sanchuan County without spending a single soldier, and he only relied on his 3-inch tongue!"

"Oh? Is this happening?" Xiang Zhuang was very surprised when he heard this, and immediately took the secret letter from Qu Bucai.

Bailixian came over to read the secret letter and couldn't help but say, "The General is really good at finding the opportunity to reach out."

Xiang Zhuang was "longyan was very happy." He laughed and said, "It's worthy of being the general. Bai Mo must be so depressed that he was so depressed that he had eaten this slap, hahaha."

Bailixian shook his head and sighed: "Actually, Bai Mo was expected to suffer a loss. He is a Han minister. He doesn't know what your mind is. He only knows that you regard the Huns as a threat, but he doesn't know that you regard the Huns as the biggest threat. Even if the Han Kingdom does not make any concessions, you will also send troops to expedition the Huns."

Xiang Zhuang smiled slightly and said thoughtfully: "It is not my original intention to seek Sanchuan County at this time, but it is better to seize Sanchuan County." Xiang Zhuang didn't care much about Sanchuan County, but he cared about Xiang Zhuang, Luoyang City. After seizing Luoyang, he could implement a huge plan that he had planned for a long time.

…………

On the way to Linzi to Handan, three hundred fat Han cavalry were walking in a hurry all night.

Zhou Guanfu blamed Bai Mo while riding his horse and said, "Prime Minister, you really shouldn't agree."

Zhou Guanfu did not doubt Bi Shu's promise. In this era, the country has national character and individuals have integrity, and they all value integrity and promises. Since Chu and Bi Shu agreed to fight against the Huns with the Han army, they would definitely fulfill their promises and would not do anything to betrayal. Zhou Guanfu just felt that this move would damage the prestige of the Han Dynasty.

Bai Mo sighed and said, "Winning, if the Chu army uses troops to Sanchuan County at this time, do you think it can be defended?"

"I'm afraid I can't defend it." Zhou Guanfu answered truthfully, and then said, "But even if I can't defend it, it will definitely cost the Chu king a heavy price. The territory of our great Han Kingdom is not so easy to obtain."

"If Si guards Sanchuan County, the Chu army will certainly pay a heavy price, but our losses will not be small." Bai Mo sighed again and said to Yuannai, "With the national strength and military strength of Chu State today, it is nothing to lose tens of thousands of people, but the military source of our Han State has been exhausted, and we cannot afford to lose too many strong men."

Zhou Guanfu also sighed and said in a little annoyed: "I just feel a little cowardly.

"This matter is indeed cowardly, but it cannot be too cheap in Chu State." Bai Mo said again, "I have asked Hei Bingtai to send a letter to Luoyang Feige, and asked General Pi Shang to immediately mobilize the people of Sanchuan to migrate to Guanzhong. We can ced the land of Sanchuan County to Chu State, but hundreds of thousands of people in Sanchuan County must be moved back to Guanzhong."

Zhou Guanfu said in surprise: "Move all the people of Sanchuan County into Guanzhong?"

"Yes, move all the people of Sanchuan County into Guanzhong." Bai Mo nodded, "We can ced Sanchuan County, but we can only give up an empty city and a piece of white land!" (To be continued
