Chapter 1077 Withdrawal Four

Huangshi County Sheriff glanced at the County Cheng who had just spoken, but did not answer his words.

Silence is his answer!

When Chen Juncheng saw that Huangshi County Sheriff had no intention of answering, he felt a little unhappy, but he couldn't show it, so he could only sit down depressedly.

His words did not seem to support the transaction, but his subsequent words suggested that this was a good thing, or at least a "great achievement"!

Do you want to swallow this poisonous sweet apple?

Although apples may be poisonous, they are really sweet!

And it can quench your thirst!

The officials of Huangshi County happened to be a group of very hungry travelers. They wanted to swallow this apple, but they were afraid that it would be poisoned by the Suzaku Army!

After the county magistrate finished speaking, the county guard didn't respond, so only the county lieutenant could speak next.

The Lord Lieutenant's speech was much more straightforward.

“I think we can contact the Suzaku Army, but we don’t necessarily have to make a deal with them.

The Suzaku Army's retreat shouldn't be a lie.

They want to withdraw, and we want to regain lost ground. From this perspective, our goals are the same.

As for whether it will be exposed afterwards, everyone is sitting here now. I think everyone should understand the pros and cons and no one will reveal it.

It’s not that easy for people from the Qian country to slander us! "

His intention is obvious, he can trade with the Suzaku Army!

Don't worry about confidentiality. Everyone here is a grasshopper on a rope. If there is a problem, no one can run away!

If the Suzaku Army spread the news afterwards, their response would be to deny it.

Everything is a conspiracy of the Qian people!

Your Majesty, you must not be fooled!

Well, it’s still the same thing.

They take the benefits and push away all the risks.

However, it is still risky to follow what the county captain said. King Shun may not believe their explanation and ask them to go to the royal capital to explain.

But it was the Yellowstone County Sheriff who had to bear the main risk.

When King Shun asked them to go to the royal capital to explain, they could only go to Huangshi County Sheriff, and at most to the County Magistrate or County Lieutenant.

It is impossible for all the three giants in one county to leave Huangshi County and go to the royal capital.

The Yellowstone County Sheriff quickly understood the risks involved, but he still did not speak.

He takes the greatest risks, but also reaps the greatest benefits.

They all match!

The county lieutenant's words made the Huangshi County officials present feel happy.

yes!

It doesn't really matter how they decide, the three people who just spoke are the decision-makers!

After understanding this, they all know which side they should support?

Must support trading with the Suzaku Army.

How can you let go of this kind of transaction with high returns and low risks?

Huangshi County Sheriff listened silently to everyone's opinions and similar words.

He knew some of them didn't mean what they said, but it didn't matter anymore.

The paperwork behind the screen has recorded everything they said.

Huangshi County Governor: "Since everyone agrees to talk to the Suzaku Army, then send someone to contact the Qianguo people, otherwise things will change if it is too late!"

They didn't know if the Suzaku Army would contact Gao Xiang. What if they didn't reply to the Military Intelligence Department and the Suzaku Army contacted Gao Xiang directly?

What if Gao Xiang agrees?

...

Soon, Zhu Yong got the reply from the Huangshi County Sheriff brought back by the Military Intelligence Department, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

Without even opening the envelope, he roughly guessed what it contained.

"It looks like this deal is going to be done!"

The governor of Huangshi County asked many questions in his letter, such as how much silver it would cost to acquire the towns occupied by the Suzaku Army;

If handed over;

The Suzaku Army must ensure that they will not reoccupy the territory after receiving the money;

Keep it confidential afterwards...

There were a lot of requests, but for the sake of money, Zhu Yong resisted the impatience in his heart and agreed to come all!

"If it weren't for your sincerity, I would have left you alone!"

"There are quite a lot of requirements!"

I want to eat meat but I’m afraid of getting fat and having high cholesterol!

Why are you thinking about beautiful things?

Zhu Yong will not let anyone deliberately publicize this transaction, but he will not go to any trouble to help Huangshi County officials conceal the information.

However, he was still inclined to agree to keep the Yellowstone County officials secret. A group of officials who had been caught were easier to deal with than a new group of officials.

Maybe these officials will give Zhu Yong a surprise next time the Suzaku Army attacks Huangshi County!

...

Under Zhu Yong's generous conditions, the deal between the Suzaku Army and Huangshi County officials was quickly concluded.

Zhu Yong didn't want much, just 150,000 taels of silver.

Originally, he asked Huangshi County Governor for 200,000 taels of silver. After some bargaining, he compromised and reduced the price to 50,000 taels.

This made several Suzaku military captains feel that they were taking advantage of Huangshi County officials, and they felt a little unhappy.

Seeing their unhappy faces, Zhu Yong said angrily: "Look at how hopeless you are, take a longer view. So what if these places are returned to Huangshi County? They will still be ours from now on!"

"If we let them keep it for a while, we can still earn 150,000 taels of silver. Do we lose money?"

"It's not a loss!"

"It's definitely not a loss!"

Several captains were easily persuaded by Zhu Yong. The commander-in-chief was right!

Sooner or later, Huangshi County will belong to them, so Huangshi County will use 150,000 taels to buy them to occupy Huangshi County later.

This deal is worth it!

Zhu Yong was an honest man. After receiving the money, he immediately withdrew his troops and began to hand over the key areas occupied by the Suzaku Army with the Huangshi County soldiers.

Huangshi County Sheriff: You must wait until my Huangshi County soldiers arrive before you can retreat!

Zhu Yong understood the purpose of Huangshi County Governor's request. He did not want Gao Xiang's foreign soldiers to take the credit.

If the Suzaku Army retreats directly, the spies sent by Gao Xiang will definitely find out that if he sends troops to regain the lost territory first, isn't the 150,000 taels of silver paid by Huangshi County officials in vain?

Zhu Yong did not intend to take the opportunity to kill more county soldiers.

Huangshi County soldiers suffered few casualties, and Shunguo would not station more soldiers and horses in Huangshi County.

County soldiers are definitely easier to deal with than Shunguo soldiers.

And with the friendship gained from this transaction, Zhu Yong even wanted to deal with local officials in Huangshi County.

Foreign generals like Gao Xiang are not very moral. If Zhu Yong wants to defeat him, he can only use hard power to convince him. He cannot resolve disputes in a reasonable way like he did with Huangshi County officials.

The withdrawal of the Suzaku Army was still not hidden from the discovery of Gao Xiang, who was always paying attention to them.

Gao Xiang didn't know what the Suzaku Army was planning. After leaving Shunfeng City, he sent a large number of scouts to investigate the Suzaku Army's intelligence.

As soon as the Suzaku Army moved, Gao Xiang received the information sent back by the scouts, but he was worried that it was a conspiracy of the Suzaku Army, so he did not immediately send troops to occupy those places.

As a result, he did not expect that the Huangshi County Governor would be so bold. As soon as the Suzaku Army left, he let the Huangshi County soldiers occupy the checkpoints and important places that the Suzaku Army had abandoned.

"Isn't he afraid that it is a conspiracy of the Qian people?"

Before he could figure out why the Huangshi County Governor was so bold, Huangshi County soldiers chased the Suzaku Army to regain a piece of lost territory.

If he doesn't understand that there is something going on between the Huangshi County Sheriff and the Suzaku Army, he is not worthy of being the commander-in-chief.

"Damn Nana, I'm leading my soldiers and horses in front to fight to the death with the Qian country people. You guys are negotiating terms with them from behind and playing tacit understanding!"

"traitor!"

"Traitor!"

No matter how angry Gao Xiang was, he could not do more, let alone complain to King Shun.

He had no evidence, and even if he complained to King Shun, he would be accused of trying to evade responsibility for the defeat.

Or competing with Yellowstone County officials for credit for recovering lost territory.

When a civil servant opens his mouth, he is right or wrong!
