Chapter 126 Powerful Liu Chan: Can't agree?Then stop talking!
The next morning.

Liu Chan got up from the bed, touched the side of his side, it was empty.

It turns out that Guan Yinping did not stay in the room last night, but went with Sun Shangxiang.

I don't know what's so special about his Sun Xiaoniang that he is so attracted to this little girl.

There was originally a repertoire for brushing teeth in the morning, but counting the days, it has been a few days since this repertoire was performed.

Hey ~
Really forced to temperance.

Under the service of the maid, Liu Chan dressed the prince of Hanzhong neatly.

After all, this place for negotiation and peace negotiation is still relatively formal. Wouldn't it be a breach of etiquette to dress casually?

Go all the way to the lobby of the Sheriff's Mansion.

At this moment, in the huge lobby of the Sheriff's Mansion, there are two rows of tables on the left and right. There are pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the tables, and there are servants and maids waiting on them.

When Liu Chan sat on the main seat, both parties were already present.

of course
The main seat in the hall is actually quite interesting, there are two main seats.

The seat next to Zhuge Jin was vacant at the moment, apparently reserved for Sun Quanxu.

Among other things, this etiquette was severely handled.

Liu Chan carefully looked at the faces of Zhuge Jin and others.

I found that apart from the tired look on Yu Fan's face, people like Zhuge Jin and Lu Xun were in great spirits.

tsk tsk~
This Zhuge Jin's body is really good enough!
Lianyu three daughters last night, when they wake up the next day, their faces are unchanged, and their spirits are doubled. They really have two strong kidneys!
oops~
My old waist!
As everyone knows, Zhuge Jin is already secretly complaining at this moment.

For yesterday's beauty, he can only say two words:

Very moist!

But after moisturizing, the body is indeed a little weak.

This Hanzhong Crown Prince Liu Chan is really abominable!
Do you think that Zhuge Jin can hardly beat me like this?
It's just a beauty trick!
In fact, come a few more times, so what's the matter?
Don't think that if I enjoy the service of those beauties, I will make concessions in the negotiation. It is related to Jiangdong's interests, and I will not give an inch!

With sharp eyes, Zhuge Jin glanced in Liu Chan's direction and snorted softly.

This old guy.
Liu Chan shook his head, he really got a bargain and acted like a good boy, I think I will send you four more tonight to see if you can stand it!

Putting aside the thoughts in his head, Liu Chan looked at everyone in the hall and said loudly:
"Since everyone is here, let's start the peace talks."

"promise!"

Pang Tong, Fei Yi, Dong Yun, Xu Xiang and others stood up one after another and saluted Liu Chan.

The Jiangdong envoy Zhuge Jin and others also stood up and saluted.

"Since it's a negotiation, let's talk about it one by one. First of all, this matter of food and grass"

As the host, Pang Tong was the first to speak. His eyes were burning and his tone was sharp and domineering. His eyes were like knives, as if he could really cut people.

"It is clearly stated in the form that 100 million shi of grain will be sent. What about the grain? You guys are here, why didn't the grain come? You must know that it takes time to transport the grain. Could it be possible to negotiate a [-]% negotiation, and you Jiangdong can transport the grain to Jiangling? "

Faced with Pang Tong's aggressive attitude, Zhuge Jin didn't panic. He stood up and said, "One million shi is too much food and grass. If the grain and grass are exchanged for 100 shi, then I can write a letter to start a business, and within ten months, the grain and grass can be delivered."

In fact, 50 shi of grain and grass is already a lot.

30 stones of grain and grass, if it is a 30 army, barely enough to feed for two and a half months, the 30 army must have at least 25 elite divisions, and these 10 must ensure that each person has at least five catties of food per day, which accounts for here. 30 catties of grain per day, 15 ordinary infantrymen have at least three catties of grain per day, that is 1 catties per day, and the remaining 2 logistics laborers range from 15-30 catties per person per day, that is, 70-85 catties per day [-], a total of [-]-[-] catties per day.

Of course, this is not counting the rations such as war horses, horses, steers and cattle, as well as the loss during transportation, storage and use. If all of them are counted, it is barely enough for 30 troops for a month.

If it were Jingzhou's 50 troops, if they lived frugally and used food and grass, [-] shi of grain and grass would be enough for a year.

but.
If you can get more, you will naturally have to get more. Besides, now is the time to talk about it, which is easier than growing food.

When the neighbor stores grain, I store guns, and the neighbor is my granary.

If you don't cut Jiangdong hard now, you won't have this opportunity in the future.

"If you say a million stones of grain and grass, it will be a million stones of grain and grass. How can you break your promise?"

"Come here to discuss, if not to discuss, what am I waiting for?"

Lu Xun also helped out.

"50 stones of grain and grass!"

"I can take a step back, 99 shi for food and grass."

Zhuge Jin's head is full of black lines, and he only gave up [-] stones of food and grass. Who are you looking down on?
"51 stones of grain and grass!"

Zhuge Jin can be regarded as the sharp point of the needle against Pang Tong.

The two of them took a step back, but they didn't seem to retreat at all.

"98 stones of grain and grass."

"52 stones of grain and grass!"

The two of you came and went, and they shouted for 75 stones of grain and grass.

"Then it's settled like this, 75 stones of grain and grass!"

how……

Have a feeling of being cheated?
Zhuge Jin felt a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, for this indicator, Sun Quan gave him the highest upper limit of 75 shi. Although it is 75 shi now, it is at least within the upper limit.

"That's the second item."

At this time, Zhuge Jin began to take the lead.

"I brought Fu Shiren here earlier, and Mrs. Sun also arrived in Jiangling yesterday. Just now, the matter of food and grass has been discussed. Excuse me, can I let the governor of Jiangdong and the old general Han Dang go?"

Pang Tong and Liu Chan looked at each other, and after receiving Liu Chan's nod, he immediately responded: "You let people go, and I naturally want to let people go. Today, we will release the governor of Jiangdong, Lu Meng, and the old general Han. Send it to the mission guest house."

Jingzhou took a step back, which made Zhugejin feel better.

As the saying goes, if you can take the first step, you will be able to take the second step, and Zhuge Jin directly made progress.

"Then I, more than ten thousand Jiangdong soldiers, will also be released together."

"Your Excellency, don't you want to make an inch of it? Let Lu Meng and Han Dang go, we have already done our best, if you want to send the surrendered pawns back to Jiangdong, it will depend on your conditions!"

Pang Tong's face was stern, and he took a step back because there was an extra 25 shi of grain and grass.

But if you want to let people go, this food is not enough!

"Okay, let's talk about the covenant again. I am a minister to the King of Hanzhong. I, Jiangdong, will never agree here. My lord is a minister of the Han Dynasty, and the King of Hanzhong is also a minister of the Han Dynasty. How can a minister of the Han Dynasty submit to the Han Dynasty?" What is the reason for a minister to call himself a minister?"

"Hahaha!"

Pang Tong laughed loudly and said, "There are also officials in the kingdoms of the princes. I am the official of the king of Hanzhong. Why not?"

"Is your lord the King of Wu? If not, why not enter our Han China?"

Entering your Han China, then didn't I, Jiangdong, become Liu Bei's subordinate?
This was something Sun Quan couldn't accept, and Jiang Dong couldn't accept it either.

The Jiangdong aristocratic family has its own interests, and now, supporting Sun Quan is in the best interest of the Jiangdong gentry.

If he becomes a subordinate of the King of Hanzhong, what are his Jiangdong gentry?
There are already Jingzhou faction, Yizhou faction, Dongzhou scholars, and Yuancong faction around Liu Bei.

How can their Jiangdong family squeeze in?

Two people think it's too crowded, three people's hole is not enough, and four people can't squeeze in at all!

"No, this is my lord's request, and it is also my Jiangdong's request. If you do not agree to this point, then today's negotiation will fail."

"Is Ziyu threatening?" Pang Tong narrowed his eyes slightly. He used to look a bit vicious, but now he would explode if he squinted his eyes.

"This is my request from Jiangdong!"

"This, we can promise."

Sitting on the main seat, Liu Chan knew in his heart that relying on the Jiangling battle was not enough for Sun Quan to become a vassal of the King of Hanzhong.

Not to mention the loss of [-] powerful soldiers, or the loss of [-] elite soldiers, Sun Quan should not be easily bowed down.

Unless it is the time of life and death, Sun Quan will not be a dog easily.

It is fine to kneel down to Emperor Han, I am originally a courtier of the Han Dynasty, but if I kneel down to you, Liu Xuande, then I will not agree!
This is probably what Sun Zhongmou thought in his mind.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for understanding the meaning of my Jiangdong monarch and minister."

"Ha ha."

Liu Chan smiled lightly, without any emotion.

"I can forgive you Jiangdong's monarch and minister once, but I can't forgive you for the second time. Do you understand this?"

You, Jiangdong, can't do the matter of surrendering to the King of Hanzhong, so...
What about ceding the land of the three counties of Jingzhou?

Pang Tong and Liu Chan were almost heart-to-heart. Immediately after Liu Chan's words fell, he stepped forward and said, "Then discuss the ownership of the three counties of Jingzhou. , you took advantage of Cao Cao’s main force to conquer Hanzhong, and captured the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia. Now, the land of these three counties should be returned to us?”

If it is said that not being a minister to Liu Bei is related to the face of Sun Quan and Jiangdong, then the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia are related to Jiangdong's face.

In the land of three counties, hundreds of thousands of people, and a land of hundreds of miles, how can you just give it away?

"The land of Nanjun was originally borrowed by my lord from the King of Hanzhong. I didn't see the King of Hanzhong returning Nanjun, but he still wanted to take the land of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia? The peace agreement is still there, and it is already confirmed. Things are written in black and white, how can we change them again?"

"Since that's the case, then we only need Changsha County, and Jiangxia Second County in Guiyang is temporarily managed by Jiangdong, how about it?"

What a fart!

If it wasn't for his demeanor, Zhuge Jin would want to spray people now.

The three prefectures of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia have been swallowed up by Jiangdong, so that the cession of Changsha County is still a gift from you Liu Chan.

How can there be such a reason in this world?
"There is no way to talk about the cession of the land. If you want to cede the land of the three counties of Jingzhou, then there is no need to talk about it today. Your 75 stones of grain and grass can be taken from your dreams!"

Liu Chan, who was sitting on the main seat, looked stern. He looked at Pang Tong, who nodded slightly.

"Since this is the case, let's change another condition. The Changsha Man is a branch of the Wuling Man, and belongs to the same branch as the Nanzhong Barbarians. If there is a Changsha Man who wants to surrender to my lord, you must let him go. Is this feasible?"

Changsha pretty?
Zhuge Jin was stunned.

He exchanged glances with Lu Xun, Yu Fan and the others, and finally said, "I'll wait for the three of us to discuss this matter before making a decision."

The matter of the Changsha barbarians seemed to be brought up suddenly by Jingzhou, and they were completely unprepared.

Now we have to discuss temporarily.

The three walked out of the hall together. In the empty school grounds, people from the Jiangdong Mission guarded the surroundings to prevent anyone from approaching Zhuge Jin and the others fifty steps away and overhearing their conversation.

"Bo Yan, what is the meaning of what Pang Tong said about the barbarian incident in Changsha?"

Lu Xun frowned slightly, still thinking.

Yu Fan who was standing next to him said, "As long as Liu Chan, the crown prince of Hanzhong, doesn't think about the three counties of Jingzhou and Jingzhou, what's the matter if he agrees to this request? It's just a little barbarian. In the past few months, most of the Changsha people have been rebellious. It was Liu Chan who secretly suggested that if those Changsha barbarians who refused to be disciplined were allowed to go to Wuling, the troubles of the Changsha barbarians would be resolved instead, so why not do it because we can kill two birds with one stone?"

Zhuge Jin also felt that it made sense when he heard about it.

The Changsha man has frequently harassed the people recently and killed more than one official appointed by Sun Quan.

Even if Sun Quan sent troops to suppress them, there was nothing they could do. When the officers and soldiers came, they hid in the deep mountains. When the army left, the Changsha barbarians attacked and killed the officials again and harassed the people.

Even sending troops to kill hundreds of people in Changsha is still a temporary solution, not the root cause.

If it is possible to drive these troublesome guys to Wuling, it is not impossible.

Although the barbarians can barely be counted as a population, but these people are not good at farming, do not obey discipline, and cannot pay taxes, so this population is meaningless.

How about sending it off to Liu Chan?
"It's just... I always feel that Liu Chan's purpose is not so simple. He has made so many preparations, Zhong Sima, and the Hanzhong Crown Prince Liu Chan is cunning, and he must not agree to this matter."

Wan not agree?
It was not agreed to be a minister before, the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia were not agreed, and the land of one county in Changsha was not agreed.

Now you don't agree to the release of the barbarians in Changsha?

I'm afraid. The one who doesn't want to discuss and negotiate is him on the Jiangdong side.

The smile on Zhuge Jin's face was very forced.

"I'll give it a try."

It's just that Zhuge Jin didn't have enough confidence when he said this.

After the discussion, the three of them returned to the hall.

"how?"

Liu Chan sat on the main seat, looking at the three Jiangdong envoys who came back from outside the hall.

"Have you made up your mind?"

Zhuge Jin bowed to Liu Chan and said, "Changsha barbarians are the people of Changsha County. How can there be a saying that they want the land and don't want the people? Forgive me for not obeying my orders!"

Liu Chan's originally smiling face suddenly became cold and gloomy.

"Don't agree to this, don't agree to that, this is your sincerity in Jiangdong? I have retreated again and again, and now there is no way to retreat. Since your Excellency does not want peace talks, let it be. You know that our army has taken Xiangyang. Taking Fancheng is also a matter of time, if I, Jingzhou, can form an alliance with you Jiangdong, when our army attacks Fancheng, Cao Cao will definitely attack with a large army, and then it will be a great opportunity for you to attack Xuzhou."

Liu Chan looked at Zhuge Jin, Lu Xun, and Yu Fan coldly, and ignored the discoloration on their faces, and said coldly: "Since you are not sincere, then Jingzhou will form an alliance with Cao Mengde at that time, and I will go down the river from Gong'an. Attacking Lukou and Xiakou, threatening Jianye, Wuling's Wudang flying army marched into Changsha, and harassed Yangzhou together with the local Changsha barbarians.

Meng Deju's army sent troops from Shouchun, all the way from Huaiyin to attack Guangling, all the way from Hefei to attack Liyang, and pushed Jianye. "

Liu Chan's tone was cold, without any personal feelings, but what he said made Zhuge Jin and the others feel a chill in their hearts.

If it is true what Liu Chan said, how can he survive in Jiangdong?

Although it was only a possibility, Zhuge Jin didn't want to gamble on this possibility, nor did he want to gamble.

"If we can't agree anymore, I think, then don't talk about it!"

"On the battlefield, the swordsman will see the outcome!"

Liu Chan patted her butt, got up directly from the main seat, and judging by the posture, she was about to leave the main hall of the Sheriff's Mansion.

"Your Highness, please stay!"
