Chapter 254
"You mean, use the people of Daqi as a threat in exchange for coarse salt?" Halic asked.

Feng Hao nodded as a matter of course, "Of course, I don't need to expose myself by smuggling coarse salt, and you can also get coarse salt. It's the best of both worlds."

Harrick squinted his eyes, and looked Feng Hao up and down, "Your Daqi coach, will you give coarse salt to us Xiliang people because of Daqi's people?"

Feng Hao sneered, his expression was full of indifference, "Of course, he would disregard the lives of the people and just sit and watch the people of Xiliang massacre the people, and the scholars of Daqi could criticize the Duke of Lu with words and pens.

Once his reputation is rotten, he is just a street mouse, anyone can step on him, maybe one day he will anger the Holy One, and the reputation of ignoring the lives of the people and being cruel is enough for him to drink a pot.For his own sake, he will also grant your request. "

Halic nodded thoughtfully, and asked sharply, "Since you said Duke Lu valued the people, wouldn't I be able to exchange the people for food?"

"Hahaha" Feng Hao laughed, full of sarcasm.

He looked at Harik like a fool, and said sarcastically, "Commander, you can really imagine. The army cannot do without food. Compared with coarse salt, the two are not the same.

If you use people to threaten you in exchange for food, then I can assure you right now that your method will not work.

Even if you killed those common people in front of the Duke of Lu, it would only make the soldiers of Da Qi angry and dissatisfied, thus deepening their hatred towards you and boosting their morale again.Even if this matter got out, Shilin would not have any objection to Lu Guogong.

This battle is equivalent to the battle of defending the country. Use Daqi's food to support you Xiliang people, so that you Xiliang people will attack Daqi, and finally let Daqi perish. He really fell into a place of eternal doom, and even the Holy Majesty would not let him go. "

It was the first time that Haric was ridiculed by Feng Hao, the coward in his eyes, and his old face was almost unbearable. Even the four guards including Ji Sibo looked at him ironically.

Harrick coughed twice, "According to what you mean, the common people can only be exchanged for coarse salt?"

Feng Hao was lazy, as if he didn't want to talk to Harrick about this issue at all, "Of course, and even in exchange for coarse salt, you need a lot of people."

Feng Hao looked at Harrick's expression, suddenly thought of something, hugged his stomach and laughed, "Oh, handsome, you don't think that a commoner can exchange a sack of coarse salt, do you?
No, no, don't think too much, to be honest, people's lives are worthless.If it is not for the sake of reputation, I guarantee you that even if you kill the entire Dingxiang City, Duke Lu Guogong will not frown. "

Harrick looked at him with a sneer, "Is this what Da Qi said about loving the people like a son?"

Feng Hao sneered, with sarcasm in his eyes, "How can those untouchables allow the high-ranking dignitaries to treat them as their own children? Don't you Xiliang also have different classes?"

This time, Feng Hao stood up directly, "Okay, I have reminded you of everything that needs to be reminded, Marshal, I look forward to seeing you next time in Mayi City."

When Feng Hao left with his men, the general from Xiliang asked, "Marshal, when are you going to find Duke Lu?"

Harrick ordered in a deep voice, "After dawn, I will send someone to count the living people in Dingxiang City. You will call Duke Lu after dawn instead of me."

Feng Hao and Ji Sibo returned to Mayi City, and Lu Guogong and others were waiting for them as usual.

This time, Feng Hao still told the matter, but for some reason, he did not hand over the covenant to Lu Guogong, as if he had forgotten it.

But the next day, Duke Lu summoned his personal guards, and was reminded of the covenant again from his personal guards, so he ordered his personal guards to find Feng Hao.

Before Feng Hao reached the main tent, there was the sound of drums beating on the city tower, and soldiers rushed to find Lu Guogong.

"Commander, the Xiliang army is pressing down on the border outside, and the enemy general wants to see you."

Duke Lu Guo looked solemn, and immediately ordered: "Blow the horn, the whole army is on alert, and fight back at any time. You follow me to have a look."

When they went up to the tower, they could see the dense Xiliang army standing outside the city at a glance. This battle was even bigger than the one that attacked the southeast corner a few days ago.

It was the Xiliang general who picked up Feng Hao and the others who led the way.

Sitting high on his horse, when he saw Duke Lu appearing, he raised his voice, "Commander of Daqi, our commander wants to make a deal with you. We will exchange your people of Daqi for your coarse salt, Daqi Qi's coach, what do you mean by your words?"

His voice was so loud that even some soldiers in the camp who were on guard could hear it.

In order to let the Daqi soldiers know about this, Harrick deliberately chose the loudest person to shout.

If Lu Guogong refuses to agree to this request, then he doesn't mind launching an offensive. Da Qi's coach does not care about the safety of the people, and his morale will inevitably be somewhat low, and what Feng Hao said unintentionally last night made him remember In his heart, Feng Hao said that because Daqi had suffered huge casualties and his morale was low, he might as well take advantage of this to pursue the momentum.

Daqi's soft bones are no match for their Xiliang warriors.

Harrick was full of confidence.

Lu Guogong was silent, looked carefully, and found that the soldiers on the tower who were on guard were all looking at him, obviously waiting for his reply.

Seeing that Duke Lu hadn't spoken, the general of Xiliang shouted again, "Commander of Daqi, are you going to disregard the lives of your people? Is a little rough salt not worth the lives of the people?"

The expressions of many soldiers changed, and they tightened their bows and swords tightly.

Duke Lu took two steps forward, and also shouted loudly, "I can discuss this deal with you. Why don't you write your request on paper and shoot it with an arrow, and we will discuss it in this way."

Lu Guogong glanced at the countless Xiliang soldiers outside, and gave up the idea of ​​going out of the city to discuss.

The Xiliang general smiled contemptuously, and responded loudly, "Okay, I will do as you say."

With a gesture of his hand, a Daqi man in his 30s was rudely pushed forward by soldiers from Xiliang, who also took a desk and pen and ink.

The Daqi man knelt on the ground, spread out the paper with a terrified expression, and waited for the Xiliang general's order.

The Xiliang general said a few words, and the man quickly finished writing. An archer tied the note to the tail of his arrow and shot in the direction of Duke Lu.

Duke Lu was so frightened that he immediately lowered himself, and Lu Tian and Ling Xin beside him immediately raised their shields to protect him.

Duke Lu's performance made Xiliang's army burst into laughter, and the laughter shook the sky.

Da Qi's soldiers blushed and glared at them.

And Lu Guogong took the small note Liang Zhenhai handed him, opened it, and laughed angrily, "The people of Xiliang have such a big appetite, they actually want to exchange a hundred people for a stone of coarse salt!"
