When Zhou Yu heard Man Chong's words, he sneered in his heart, thinking to himself, saying, "What's going on with your Yanzhou Army? How can you, Man Boning, still not know? You use this to make excuses us, but unfortunately it's not enough to see it."

But Zhou Yu couldn't say so openly, just said to Man Chong: "Since that's the case, what about Mr. Boning's intention?"

Xu Shu also smiled at Man Chong, "Now it's 'a sky-high price, pay it back on the spot'. Mr. Boning will tell you what he can do. Let Gongjin and I listen to it, don't know if it's okay?"

The few of them were just acting, but everyone understood it, but they didn't point it out, so that would be meaningless. Zhou Yu, Xu Shu, including Sun Ce and Liu Bei, who didn't know that Man Chong was actually the only one who had the power to deal with the alliance. At least they knew in their hearts that before Man Chong left, Cao Cao must have given him great power to deal with the alliance. However, since Man Chong didn't tell the truth, they had no intention of forcing him.

Anyway, as long as everyone in the end was happy and achieved their goal, then that's fine, nothing else.

-----------------------------------------------------

When Man Chong heard what Zhou Yu and Xu Shu said, he smiled at them and said, "Since Mr. Gongjin and Mr. Yuanzhi both said so, then..."

Man Chong once again showed their Yanzhou army's "sincerity", of course, it must be more than before. After hearing this, Zhou Yu and Xu Shu nodded secretly in his heart. As for Sun Ce and Liu Bei, he thought that there was definitely room for negotiation in this matter, and this was definitely not the bottom line of their Yanzhou army. Of course, he didn't expect it, so he had to press on the bottom line of the other party, but it was better to fight for the greater the benefits for his own side.

Sun Ce believed in Zhou Yu and Liu Bei naturally trusted Xu Shu, otherwise the two of them would not have left the matter to them. Of course, it must be said that Sun Ce and Liu Bei were indeed not very good at negotiating with others, facing a more powerful lobbyist like Man Chong, let alone facing a powerful role like Man Chong.

-----------------------------------------------------

After hearing Man Chong's words, Zhou Yu and Xu Shu looked at each other again. They both knew what each other meant and said in their hearts that it was true, and there were still some discussions on this matter.

For the benefit of his own side, he had to negotiate with him. This time, Zhou Yu looked at Xu Shu and asked him to take the lead this time. There was no way, and Xu Shu could only follow Zhou Yu's idea. He only heard him say at this time: "It's really OK to listen to Mr. Boning's conditions, but the Guijun wants to form an alliance with our coalition forces. Is this condition?"

Man Chong smiled when he heard this. He looked at Zhou Yu at this time. Zhou Yu was closing his eyes to rest, as if all these things had nothing to do with him. But Man Chong's heart was like a mirror. Zhou Yu was not resting at that time, but he deliberately did this for himself to see.

However, this did not prevent Man Chong from continuing to speak, so he heard him say to Xu Shu at this time: "I don't know what Mr. Yuanzhi meant, what are the conditions, please speak in person!"

-----------------------------------------------------

Xu Shu laughed at this time and said, "Hahaha! Mr. Boning, what I mean is. Based on what Mr. Boning said before, add another 30% to his side!"

When Man Chong heard this, he gasped and said, "You Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi, you really dare to speak." This is really a bloody mouth. Add another 30% to your coalition forces based on what you said before. For you? You must know how many things you can take out in total and how much benefits you will give you. You will speak out at this moment. But it has really exceeded your bottom line.

After hearing Xu Shu's words, Zhou Yu was actually very satisfied. To be honest, he thought the same as Xu Shu, and he knew that after saying this, he would definitely exceed the bottom line of the Yanzhou Army. However, negotiations still have to be negotiated and negotiated well, so if nothing unexpected happens, it is absolutely impossible to brag about it. Then Xu Shu should have spoken out at this time, and then he was forced to give the bottom line to his own side, so he did a good job and was quite right.

-----------------------------------------------------

As for Sun Ce and Liu Bei, they were the same, and they felt that what Xu Shu said was nothing. For them, their own people naturally wanted to fight for more benefits for their side, so both of them agreed with Xu Shu's approach. As for what Man Chong wanted to say, that was his business, unless he was really not ready to talk carefully, or if he was telling the truth, he would still have the advantage. This is correct.

Man Chongxin said that if he didn't explain his bottom line today, it would be difficult to deal with. Although he didn't think that Xu Shu was really ruthless and wanted so many things on his side, he was asking for a price, so he had to exchange money for him.

So he said to Xu Shu and Zhou Yu at this time: "Mr. Yuanzhi, Mr. Gongjin, Mr. Shu Yuanzhi's conditions cannot be agreed. Our army comes here with sincerity. If we add another 1.5%, I can make the decision. If we exceed this, please forgive me for being unable to make the decision!"

When Zhou Yu and Xu Shu heard this, they thought to themselves that you, Man Boning, should have given the bottom line, and they knew in their hearts that this was already the limit of the Yanzhou army. To be honest, if they were asked to bring out their benefits, it would be of no benefit to anyone.

-----------------------------------------------------

Zhou Yu and Xu Shu looked at their lords, and when Sun Ce and Liu Bei saw their advisers looking at them, they both nodded slightly. The meaning was obvious, they agreed.

After Zhou Yu and Xu Shu saw their lord's actions, they also knew how to tell Man Chong.

At this moment, Zhou Yu smiled at Man Chong and said, "Okay, since Mr. Boning is so happy, then this matter is what it is!"

Xu Shu also smiled and said to Man Chong: "Yes, I mean it too!"

When Man Chong heard the two of them, he felt much more relaxed. After all, Sun Ce and Liu Bei had left the alliance with Zhou Yu and Xu Shu with full authority. So they agreed, that is to say, Sun Ce and Liu Bei and others agreed.

Sure enough, when Man Chong looked at Sun Ce and Liu Bei, both of them smiled and nodded slightly at him. That's what he meant, he agreed to this matter.

Man Chong laughed and said, "Okay, so good, so you can pass the lord!"

-----------------------------------------------------

Man Chong was indeed a lot more relaxed at this time, at least he knew that this matter was done. As for the subsequent matters, it was the matter of his lord, Sun Bofu and Liu Xuande. He was only responsible for forming an alliance with them. As for the meeting, of course, there were also negotiations at this time, but the last thing left was his lord, Sun Ce and Liu Bei.

So at this time, Man Chong said to the two: "General Sun, Duke Xuande, since your army and our army have reached an alliance agreement, I wonder when the two of you will meet my lord?"

In the eyes of the Yanzhou Army, the sooner this matter, the better. After all, there is no way out of retreat, so no one is in a hurry to do this matter. Then, after forming an alliance with the Sun and Liu coalition forces, his lord met Sun Ce and Liu Bei, he naturally had to discuss this matter with them, so at that time, this problem will be solved. After all, they are already allies, so the retreat cannot be cut off. So...

Sun Ce smiled at Man Chong and said, "I wonder what Cao Sikong thinks about this issue?"

-----------------------------------------------------

Sun Ce asked Man Chong first, of course this was also unanimously agreed after he looked at Liu Bei just now.

In their opinion, Cao Cao certainly had his own ideas, and of course, both of them had their own ideas. However, whether it was him or Cao Mengde, it was impossible to choose a place in the other party's territory. So both of them knew in their hearts that if both sides agreed to this place, it would be the junction of the two forces, so it was conceivable.

Man Chong smiled and said to Sun Ce and Liu Bei: "I would like to ask General Sun and Duke Xuande to come forward, and I will point out the location where my lord chose the alliance!"

Sun Ce and Liu Bei smiled, and then heard Sun Ce say, "Mr. Boning!"

"promise!"

As he said that, Man Chong walked forward and came to the place next to Sun Ce, where the marching map was hung. As for Zhou Yu and Xu Shu, both of them naturally stood up and followed Man Chong.

-----------------------------------------------------

Only Xu Chu, who was like nothing happened, closed his eyes and didn't know if he was asleep or not. But depending on the situation, he was half asleep and half awake at this time, but even so, Xu Chu was a first-class general after all, so he knew more or less about what happened next to him.

At this time, Man Chong had already arrived near the map. Sun Ce and Liu Bei also looked at the hanging map. They wanted to see where Cao Cao chose to let the several people form a alliance.

I saw Man Chong pointing his hand on the map. When everyone saw two words on it: Chanling!

Everyone's minds were full of energy. Sun Ce, Liu Bei, Zhou Yu and Xu Shu chose the place, but they had no objection.

Chanling is a county under Wuling, but Chanling City is indeed in the northeast of Wuling and southeast of the southern county, just at the junction of the two counties, and it is also the only county at the junction of the two counties. So Sun Ce and Liu Bei also knew that Cao Cao had good intentions for the alliance. Although Chanling is well-understood by Wuling, the location is indeed the junction of the two counties, so it is the same for everyone, which makes everyone feel at ease.

-----------------------------------------------------

Seeing the expressions of Sun Ce and Liu Bei and others, Chong was very proud, and then said, "I don't know where my master chooses. What do General Sun and Duke Xuande think?"

Sun Ce smiled when he heard this, "Hahaha! OK, agree, but I don't know what Duke Xuande thought?"

When Liu Bei heard Sun Ce's words, he rolled his eyes in his heart and said to himself that you, Sun Bofu, have agreed, even if I don't agree, what else can I say? Besides, can I still disagree? I have to admit that the place Cao Mengde chose is indeed a relief for everyone, so there is naturally no problem.

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Agree. Chanling, this place is very good!"

When Man Chong saw that Sun Ce and Liu Bei agreed, he also showed a rare sincere smile. After all, the pressure on his shoulders was too great before, but it was much better at this time. At least he could go back to report to his lord. After losing once in Zhang Yan in Heishan, he succeeded again this time.

-----------------------------------------------------

Man Chong, Sun Ce, Liu Bei and others chatted for a while. Then Sun Ce and Liu Bei held a banquet to entertain him and Xu Chu. After all, they were guests and came from afar, so it should be so. And they were all ally. Sun Ce and Liu Bei called all their subordinates to the Central Army tent and came to accompany Man Chong and Xu Chu.

Of course, Sun Ce and Liu Bei were also indispensable during this period. Xu Chu and their subordinates introduced him to each other. Then this was the banquet.

The meal was filled with joy. Even though Man Chong was indeed a heart-to-heart, he knew that it was hard to refuse the kindness. With Sun Ce and Liu Bei trying to keep him, he could not leave Xu Chu directly without giving them any face. And this meal was eaten until very late. Man Chong and Xu Chu naturally left Sun Ce and Liu Bei to the camp of the Sun and Liu Bei, and they must not be allowed to leave.

It was not until the second day that Man Chong and Xu Chu said goodbye, Sun Ce and Liu Bei, and they personally sent them out of their camp. It was also a great deal of face.

-----------------------------------------------------

The talks were very good before. What Man Chong discussed with Sun Ce and Liu Bei was that five days later, his lord, Sun Ce and Liu Bei met in Chanling to discuss major events. Sun Ce and Liu Bei and others naturally agreed.

Compared to Cao Cao, they were very close to Chanling, so if they had to go there quickly, it would not take five days at all. It was just that Cao Cao was in Linyuan, and it was a little farther from Chanling, and it was Man Chong who had to go back before Cao Cao could receive the news, so the two sides naturally agreed that it would be within a range that could be accepted by both sides.

After Man Chong and Xu Chu left, Sun Ce smiled and said to Liu Bei, "Five days later..."

Liu Bei also smiled, "See Cao Mengde in Chanling!"

Then the two looked at each other and smiled, and everything was gone.

Man Chong talked about the alliance, the conditions of the Yanzhou army, and finally agreed to have a good time to join the alliance, without saying anything else. However, Sun Ce and Liu Bei knew that the rest were naturally Cao Cao's affairs. Especially for their Yanzhou army, the most important retreat issue, which Cao Cao himself wanted to tell him.

-----------------------------------------------------

"Report to the lord, Mr. Boning and General Xu Chu returned, less than five miles away from Linyuan!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he stood up and said, "Call the generals and follow me out of the city to greet him!"

"promise!"

Cao Cao was confident in Man Chong and knew that the two of them had "returned victoriously", so he should go out of the city with all the generals to greet them, so he said this to the horse.

After a while, everyone arrived, and then Cao Cao said that everyone was very happy. Almost no one thought that this was not done. To be honest, this was not arrogant, but self-confidence, confidence in one's own side, confidence in Man Chong, and also confidence in Sun Ce and Liu Bei. After all, they were the best people in the world, so can't they see the current situation? Alliance is a matter of benefit. If they don't form an alliance, hehe, then they may not be able to deal with the Liangzhou army.

Cao Cao waved his hand: "Everyone, follow me out of the city to welcome Boning and Zhongkang!"

"promise!"

-----------------------------------------------------

Cao Cao took everyone out of the city. Not long after, he saw two cavalry coming from afar. When he saw that it was Man Chong and Xu Chu who were full of dust. They were all a little flattered when they saw that they had already seen their lords and generals in such a formation. To be honest, this incident is definitely rare. After all, if you want your lord to welcome you, then except that you are a great talent in the world, you can make great contributions, or it will be of great benefit to your side, this is possible, or anything else is basically impossible.
