Choose Liu Bei at the start, I am the only one who knows the plot of the Three Kingdoms.

Chapter 353 Taishi Ci’s special forces, negotiation!

In the tent of Gu Rubing's side, all the generals were injured, even the two war gods Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun were no exception. Not to mention Zhang He who was already injured. Taishi Ci should be the only one who was not injured. Fortunately, when leaving Guangling City, Gu Rubing brought the genius doctor Hua Tuo with him, otherwise things would be really troublesome.

After the death of 80 million Yellow Turban reservists, only 100 were left, and the negative characteristics of the Yellow Turban Army had been reduced to %. This means that they can enjoy % of the characteristic bonus of Gu Rubing and his military advisors and generals. This is the highest. Unless they change their jobs and become regular soldiers, they will never be able to enjoy a % bonus.

In addition to the reduction in negative impact, because of the previous losses of regular troops, such as Zhang Fei's Eighteen Riders of Yanyun and the five hundred scouts led by Zhao Yun, after their deaths, the job transfer that originally belonged to them became vacant, and as long as someone meets the full-time requirements of their arms, they can transfer.

For example, if a light cavalry meets the "raid" and "veteran" traits, then they can directly become the Yanyun Eighteen Riders.

What is more troublesome in comparison are the archers, shield soldiers and the like, who need special training and must meet the conditions for job transfer before they can change jobs.

Gu Rubing turned his gaze to Taishi Ci again, and there was an extra line in Taishi Ci's panel.

[Special Soldier: Mobile Crossbow Captain (Maximum Number: 200)]

[Introduction to the Wandering Crossbow Captain: An elite scout under Taishi Ci, with high combat power. Not only can they complete the scout's task of investigating people, but they can also carry out assassination and decapitation operations. Scouts with the "spying" and "shooting through the target" traits can be full-time.]

It finally came, Gu Rubing was excited. Just as he guessed, only by targeting the different characteristics of each general and letting them lead the troops, it would be possible to trigger the effect of special troops.

The Captain of the Mobile Crossbow Army, that sounds like an unusual type of soldier. It seems that he is not far from building an army that is responsible for guerrilla warfare and decapitation.

Inside the big tent, Gu Rubing and many military officers were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

In comparison, Sun Jian's side was much more solemn. Sun Jian came here with an army of 250,000, plus the 80,000 troops brought back by Zhou Yu, a total of 330,000 troops. Now there are only less than 130,000 left. How could Sun Jian be happy? These were all his assets, and they were all spent in this battle.

Just when Sun Jian was about to speak and cheer everyone up, he suddenly heard a voice outside again.

"Report! My Lord! Ma Zhong, the deputy commander of the Wujun garrison, has sent me an urgent military report that has traveled eight hundred miles!"

When Sun Jian heard that there was another military report, his whole body trembled. After all, in the past period of time, nothing good had happened in every military report that was sent to him. Even if there was something good, it was only temporary. So now Sun Jian was a little stressed out by the word "military report". When he heard these two words, he felt that he was not far from bad luck.

"Bring it here."

Sun Jian waved his hand very reluctantly and took the battle report.

"Ah! Big-eared thief! I will fight you till death!"

Sun Jian roared angrily and slammed the battle report in his hand on the table.

"Bofu, lead your troops immediately to support Wujun!"

"Father, has Wujun been attacked?"

Sun Ce immediately stood up and clasped his fists to accept the order. Sun Jian nodded slowly, then looked at Zhou Yu beside him and said with gritted teeth.

"The battle report that Ma Zhong just sent over says that Zhang Liao, a general under Liu Bei, led thousands of cavalrymen to raid the Dantu military town in the north of Wujun, and is now heading towards Wuxi City!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu immediately stood up and took the battle report from Sun Jian.

"My lord, I assure you that when we left Guangling City, Zhang Liao was already on the verge of death and would definitely not survive. Even if he could survive, he would not be able to lead his troops to attack Wujun right now. I hope my lord will understand!"

"Oh? So you're saying that what Ma Zhong saw was not Zhang Liao, and that he wronged you?"

Sun Jian suppressed his anger. He was originally dissatisfied with Zhou Yu for failing to capture Guangling City. However, because Zhou Yu was promoted to a famous general and defeated the opponent's strong general Zhang Liao, Sun Jian did not care about Zhou Yu's defeat. As a result, just a few days later, Zhang Liao, who was said to have been defeated, reappeared in Wujun and was leading his troops to attack Wujun.

"That's not what I meant. It's just that Zhang Liao was already hopeless at that time. My lord, everything I said is true! I would never dare to lie to you!"

"My lord, I can testify to the Grand Commander that Zhang Liao was definitely dead at that time!"

Huang Gai also stood up at this time to testify for Zhou Yu. Sun Jian looked at the two of them, and his emotions caused by being too angry had calmed down a little. Zhou Yu and Huang Gai were both first-class generals under his command, and they were definitely not the kind of people who would commit crimes. It was just that Sun Jian had lost his mind for a moment, so he questioned Zhou Yu like this.

He was also one of the players and knew that this was a game with many things that could not be explained by common sense. So Zhang Liao might have really been about to die, or even had already died, but was saved by Liu Bei, who was also a player.

Sun Jian had dabbled in this kind of strategy and war game before entering the game. After regaining his sanity, he quickly stood up and personally helped Zhou Yu and Huang Gai up.

"Commander-in-chief, get up quickly. I am not blaming you, but I hate that Zhang Liao for taking advantage of the empty rear and launching a surprise attack! You rat!"

"My lord, we should hurry back to Wu County to help. After all, your base is in Wu County and you cannot tolerate any danger."

Lu Xun stood up and bowed.

"Liu Bei's army still has more than 300,000 soldiers, while our army only has more than 100,000 soldiers. The gap in strength is too huge. We should not fight any more. We should rush back to Wujun and kill Zhang Liao, otherwise there will be endless troubles!"

"But in this situation, how can we go back? Will Liu Bei, the big-eared thief, let us go back?"

Sun Jian sighed. The current battle situation was like a fight between him and Liu Bei. Both of them had their hands restrained each other, but Zhang Liao was Liu Bei's third hand, who stabbed him hard at the critical moment. Now he wanted to free one hand and pull out the knife, but there were only two ways. One was to hit Liu Bei as quickly as possible, and the other was to let Liu Bei temporarily let go of one hand so that he could pull out the knife.

But obviously, these two methods are almost impossible to achieve. Not to mention that the other side has an army of nearly 300,000. Even if the other side is 300,000 pigs, it will take one or two days to kill these tens of thousands of people. And then it will take two or three days to get back to Wujun, which is four or five days. In four or five days, Zhang Liao might have reached Wuxian. Now there is only one cavalry of 10,000 people stationed in the entire Wujun, and the rest are militiamen from various military towns and cities. How can they stop Zhang Liao's elite cavalry?

Just when everyone in the tent was at a loss, a voice sounded again.

"Report! My Lord, Liu Bei sent someone to deliver a letter."

"Liu Bei? Bring it here."

After reading the letter, Sun Jian's frown finally relaxed.

"Liu Bei invited me to have a chat."

...

Half an hour ago, a scout rushed into Gu Rubing's tent.

"Report! My Lord, General Zhang Liao sent someone to deliver a letter."

Gu Rubing and Zhuge Liang looked at each other. When they parted in Guangling City, Zhuge Liang told Zhang Liao that he should send a letter to Chengde when he captured the first military town or defeated Sun's army for the first time.

Gu Rubing glanced through it roughly and then handed it to Zhuge Liang. After reading it, Zhuge Liang bowed to Gu Rubing and said, "My lord, you can send someone to send a letter to Sun Jian and invite him to a gathering. As for the position, let them choose. They dare not make any move because they are afraid of the consequences."

"it is good."

Gu Rubing immediately wrote a letter personally and delivered it to Sun Jian.

Looking at the puzzled expressions of the others in the big account, Gu Rubing then explained to everyone in detail Zhuge Liang's previous plan. This plan was so meticulous that even a rough man like Zhang Fei couldn't help but applaud after hearing it. Every step was planned to perfection, even what to do and how to do it were planned. Isn't this a perfect guiding template?

"Military advisor, I admire you!"

Zhang Fei picked up the wine bowl in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. Gu Rubing was about to tell Zhuge Liang that he didn't need to drink, but Zhuge Liang actually picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp. Seeing this, Zhang Fei admired this military advisor even more.

After putting down the wine bowl, Zhuge Liang whispered to Gu Rubing.

"Don't disturb the generals and soldiers. Besides, I haven't drunk for a long time, so I am still craving for wine."

Hearing this, Gu Rubing couldn't help but sigh in his heart, with high IQ, high EQ, and handsome looks, if this happened in modern times, his future would be limitless.

After three rounds of drinking, the scout who was sent out to deliver the letter came back and brought Sun Jian's letter. Sun Jian said that there would be a pavilion on the top of a mountain 20 miles east of Chengde military town at 1:05 am tomorrow morning, where they would talk in detail.

The next day, as soon as the sky in the east began to brighten, both sides set out at the same time. Gu Rubing led Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, and the 100 and 18 riders of Yanyun to the agreed pavilion. Taishi Ci led 500 scouts to clear the way and ensure Gu Rubing's safety.

Sun Jian brought Zhou Yu and Sun Ce to the meeting. Responsible for ensuring Sun Jian's safety were Sun Jian's personal soldiers, five hundred halberd warriors. They were usually only responsible for Sun Jian's safety, and would only take action when Sun Jian was in personal threat.

As soon as the hour of Mao arrived, Gu Rubing came here with a few people. It was not until two quarters after the hour of Mao that Sun Jian arrived with his subordinates.

When Sun Jian arrived, Gu Rubing had already made the tea. Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun stood behind Gu Rubing like two guardian gods.

"Wentai, sit down."

Gu Rubing took the initiative to speak. Sun Jian looked at Gu Rubing, snorted coldly, and sat down opposite Gu Rubing.

"If you have anything to say, just tell me."

"Wen Tai, don't be in a hurry. You came here so early in the morning. I guess you haven't eaten yet. Have some hot tea first."

As Gu Rubing spoke, he pushed a cup of tea that had been filled early in the morning in front of Sun Jian. The tea was still hot with steam rising from it.

"No need to be so hypocritical, just say what you want to say."

Looking at Gu Rubing, Sun Jian was so angry that he couldn't speak. If Gu Rubing didn't have Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, two killing gods, behind him, Sun Jian really wanted to slap Gu Rubing twice.

"Wentai, it's been a long time since we last met. Why are you like this?"

Gu Rubing was not panicked at all, as the initiative was in his hands. The one who should be panicked was Sun Jian. Sun Jian also realized that the other party was trying to intimidate him, so he could only raise his hot tea and take a sip.

"Okay, now that we've sat down and drank, just tell me what you want to say."

Controlled by Gu Rubing, Sun Jian could only lower his posture, but he still refused to admit defeat.

"Tai Wen, you should have received the news from Wu Jun, right?"

"what do you want to say in the end!"

Sun Jian was completely controlled by Gu Rubing's attitude and shouted angrily. Gu Rubing smiled and shook his head slightly, but he was very surprised in his heart. Once Sun Jian was angry, it meant that Sun Jian was completely led by him.

"What if I say I want to temporarily withdraw my troops and stop fighting?"

When Sun Jian heard Gu Rubing say this calmly, his whole body was shocked, but he quickly concealed it.

"Would you be so kind? Or are you planning something else?"

"It seems that Wen Tai must have some misunderstanding about me. I didn't want to get into trouble, but Wen Tai kept pressing me and wanted to capture Guangling, so I had to send troops."

Gu Rubing smiled brightly.

"Not only will I withdraw my troops, I will also return all the cities and military towns in Jiujiang and Lujiang counties to you. How do you think?"

"Is this true?"

After hearing this, Sun Jian almost couldn't sit still, but he immediately realized that he had lost his composure and was easily bullied, so he sat up straighter.

"Are you so kind? Tell me what the conditions are."

"You still understand me. I can withdraw my troops and return Jiujiang and Lujiang counties to you, but I have only one request. You must give the city of Nanchang to Jingsheng, including the military towns and cities in Yuzhang that are no longer under your control. You must give them all to Jingsheng, and you must not attack Yuzhang again."

Gu Rubing stated all his requests in one breath, and Sun Jian's expression was as wonderful as it could be.

"Why should I agree to you? Can you send people to guard the military towns of Jiujiang and Lujiang counties all the time? How many soldiers do you have? Once you leave, I can take them down without any effort. Why should I give you half of Yuzhang County and Nanchang County City in exchange?"

Sun Jian slammed the table and shouted, very angry about Gu Rubing's proposal. Faced with the furious Sun Jian, Gu Rubing ignored him.

"You can wait until we leave and then fight back, but the question is, will you still have the chance by then? If Wu County is taken, Shi Xie, who wants to come to Jiaozhou, will not let go of Kuaiji County. Half of Yuzhang County in exchange for Kuaiji County, half of Jiujiang County, and half of Lujiang County, this kind of transaction, you should find a place to secretly laugh for a while."

After hearing Gu Rubing's ridicule, Zhang Fei behind him burst into laughter, while Zhao Yun smiled slightly. Now Sun Ce behind Sun Jian was about to get angry, but was stopped by Zhou Yu. Now the initiative is not in their hands, and the angrier they are, the more likely they are to fall into a passive position.

"you!"

Sun Jian swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. What Gu Rubing said was the truth. Now he couldn't even leave the battlefield to support Wujun, so how could he talk about what would happen next.

"Nanchang County City cannot be given, and Zhang Liao must withdraw his troops! Return the cities and military towns of Wu County."

After thinking for a long time, Sun Jian gave his own conditions: Yuzhang County, with Nanchang County City located in the center, radiating to the entire Yuzhang County. It can be said that if Sun Jian wants to take back Yuzhang County in the future, then Nanchang County City must not be let go.
