Chapitre 106: Chapter 106: Reciprocity And Expedition
This is a common thing for them, so the Xiliang army will eat the tribute of the Yongzhou bandits while waiting for the bandits to buy horses with money or food, then robbed the bandits. To tell the truth, the Xiliang army started like this in the first place. From the beginning they planned to robbed them, so they weren't worry about getting into trouble. Their boss is about to take the throne, what else do they have to worried about?
Xiliang soldiers brag with the bandits who were serving them, while preparing to kill these bandits.
While bragging to the Xiliang soldiers who were selling horses, the Yongzhou bandits were preparing to kill this group of non-human beings. As for the food and money, they didn't have enough for themselves. Can they give them Xiliang soldiers? What a joke! And if it weren't for these Xiliang soldiers looting everywhere, did they need to be in this situation?
Therefore, when the news that their leader has arrive, in the eyes of the bandits in Yongzhou, is the day these bastards will become meat on a chopping board, and they will be chopped into minced meat. As for these four thousand horses, they will naturally ride the horses and run away. They can't beat the Xiliang armies. After finishing this job, they will not mixed in Yongzhou anymore. The four thousand horses can be exchanged with any warlords!
With this thought, both the Yongzhou bandits and the Xiliang soldiers shouted 'brother' and touched the knife in their hands. They will be absolutely merciless when it was time to do it. Everyone was doing the same thing, that is, black eat black!
On the other side, Gongsun Zan also received Liu Bei's supplies and a letter. The letter was not long and the content was very simple.
A brief account of Liu Bei's current situation, that he is facing the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and was not directly facing Jizhou, so it is not easy for him to help. The Yellow Turban situation had some changes, so he is not easy to leave Taishan.
The other part was that your brother is barely rich now. I heard that you are going to fight Yuan Shao. No matter what's the reason, I will raise 100,000 stone of grains, a boat of refined salt, and 10 million yuan for you. If the materials are not enough, I will send you a little more.
When Gongsun Zan received this letter and the supplies delivered by the Lu family ship, his heartbroken mood was instantly relieved. He was so sad when Liu Yu was dragging his nose again. It was still his brother that he could count on. Liu Bei went to Taishan with his own forces. After being poor for more than half a year, it is estimated that the people under his rule have not been comforted. Hearing that Liu Bei wants to help and directly gave so many supplies, Gongsun Zan was happy. This is what a brother is!
Gongsun Zan have supported other brothers supported but they then burn the bridge. Yuan Shao said he wanted to divide Jizhou equally, but he is now swallowing it alone. If Gongsun Zan doesn't teach him a lesson, he might have forgotten that he is the white horse general Gongsun Zan!
"Tian Yu, how many horses do we have on the horse farm?" Gongsun Zan regained confidence from Liu Bei's letter. One hundred thousand stone of food is not a big deal. A ship of salt is enough for his army to use for three months. The ten million yuan is the same as the price of a hundred horses, but in Gongsun Zan's view, this is all brotherhood, so he has to give a gift in return. Gongsun Zan, who is now full of confidence, realizes that he will not lose at all.
"We have just looted Wuhuan and Xianbei. In addition to the white horses being incorporated into the Baimayi Cong, there are now a large number of variegated horses. We originally planned to sell them to the Yuan family in Yuzhou, the Zhen family in Jizhou, Cui family in Jizhou, and Qinghe Zhang family for 70,000 yuan a horse. But now that we plan to fight Jizhou, naturally the horses are still in our hands." Tian Yu said quietly, he knew that Gongsun Zan had committed to his old problem.
After having been with Gongsun Zan for so long, Tian Yu had already figured out Gongsun Zan's style. Whoever this guy find pleasing to the eye was able to do anything and not anger him. If he find you unpleasant to the eye, then he wouldn't give the other party face no matter how flattered he was. Although, Tian Yu doesn't know how Liu Bei got into Gongsun Zan's eyes, Gongsun Zan would take good care of his old classmate.
In the past, Tian Yu thought it was silly to do so, but when he saw the supplies delivered by Taishan at the port of Liaoxi county, Tian Yu also recognizes Gongsun Zan's style. Although 90% of them will be white-eyed wolves, occasionally there are one or two good brothers. In an instant the previous investment on Liu Bei was worth it, so this time Tian Yu didn't persuade Gongsun Zan to not give Liu Bei anything.
Tian Yu and Gongsun Zan share the same view in this matter. Liu Bei went to Taishan, a poor place, for only half a year. Now it is estimated that Liu Bei has done his best to bring out these things. For a local tyrant like Gongsun Zan, except for salt, Liu Bei's other materials does not matter at all. Why doesn't grain matter? Think about three thousand white horse calvarymen. Where each person has two horses, get two catties of grain a day, and 20 catties of grain a day for horses. Every day, people eat and horses eat, which adds up to two thousand stone of food a day. One hundred thousand stone of grain is one and a half month's ration. What's more, there are infantry in the army.
"Give all the variegated ones to Liu Bei. Didn't you catch a few wild horses that were about to refine qi into liquid? Except for the white ones, give them all to Liu Bei." Gongsun Zan directly gave Tian Yu an order. It wasn't just recently that Wuhuan and Xianbei had been looted, otherwise they would all be white horses. Gongsun Zan would always feel upset when he sees other colors. It is better to give away or sell variegated ones.
Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei's appointment letter and his eyebrows pinched together. Should he refuse? After all, he is about to get married. If he go away like this, isn't the marriage over. Although Chen Xi is confident in cleaning up the Yellow Turbans. This number of Yellow Turbans can't be solved in a short while.
"What's the problem, Chen Xi?" Liu Bei asked puzzledly.
"It's nothing. I am just thinking whether I should take Liu Ye with me." Chen Xi shook his head and said a reason.
"You are the commander this time. As long as you leave enough to guard Taishan, the people you want is up to you." Liu Bei said with a smile.
"Okay, then leave it to me." Chen Xi nodded and accepted the letter of appointment. He was ready to go hand over the government affairs to Lu Su. Then he would go to Qingzhou to clean up the Yellow Turbans, but before that he needed to explained it to Fan Jian and Chen Lan. After all, this is a formal military service. Although it was normal to bring a wife with you, but he is a little uneasy that Chen Lan or Fan Jian would think the wrong way.
Chen Xi didn't want to express any opinions about being the commander. He is not good at military, but as a commander he can barely let the army ues its full power. If it is defeated after using all their power, it was not his problem. It was more because the army was not strong enough.
Besides, this time Chen Xi was playing the Yellow Turbans. He was not playing against Cao Cao who had Er Xun and Cheng Yu as the staffs, and were ruthless people. Not to mention fighting the Yellow Turbans, delaying time would be enough to drag the Yellow Turbans to death. An enemy without food will probably be easy to capture as prisoners when they are hungry. What a great exploitation method.
However, at this time, it seems that he should write a letter to Tao Qian first, asking for food or something. After all, Taishan is the gateway to Xuzhou. If Taishan cannot get Xuzhou help, they would be unlucky, and Xuzhou would indeed be held responsible.
Stepping out of the government building, Chen Xi looked at the sky. This is the first time he is going on an expedition, but he didn't feel any excitement at all. Even if the number of Yellow Turbans is huge, it is only a small trouble compared with the other warlords. And the number of people and soldiers he can bring seems to be open.
