I'm in Daqin, Did You Tell Me That School Starts?

　　Ye Chen looked at Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, and Pang Tong sighed and said, "Let's tell you this way, they have an army of [-] now, and Hanzhong is their last territory.

　　If Hanzhong City is broken, then they will have to face the choice of life and death. At the juncture of life and death, who can not resist desperately, plus there are a lot of people, and there is a city to rely on, this battle is definitely not easy to fight. "

　　Ma Chao couldn't help but murmured, "Then, Your Highness, you asked us to fight."

　　"Just as you are so excited, can you be willing to not let you really fight?" Ye Chen said, "Okay, get ready to start the siege. I haven't ordered this recently, and no one is allowed. Privately attacking Hanzhong City, do you understand?"

　　The generals nodded hurriedly: "Yes, the last generals will obey the order."

　　Seeing that the army had completed the siege of Hanzhong City, Ye Chen personally inspected the position of the besieged city (promise is good) to ensure that every place was watertight.

　　"Zhang Lu's head was temporarily flooded this time, and that's why he thought of shrinking the defense line and passively defending. If Zhang Lu gets enlightened, he will let his men rush out.

　　There are a lot of people in the family. Don't let their people rush out. If they enter Xichuan in the future and join forces with Liu Zhang, then it will be our trouble. " Ye Chen said.

　　When the iron barrel formation was completed, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and then invited both Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang over.

　　"Two, to be honest, Zhang Lu and the others are basically unlikely to run out now, but this is still not enough." Ye Chen said: "I heard from my eyeliner in Hanzhong City that they still have [-]. For Shi's food, it's not a problem to support the first half of the year. But if we wait here for the first half of the year, isn't this a bit too bad?".

Chapter 337

　　Pang Tong touched his chin; "So does Your Highness have any ideas?"

　　"Why don't the two military advisers talk about it, what should we do now?" Ye Chen asked.

　　Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were silent for a while at the same time, and Zhuge Liang was the first to speak: "Now that the other party has been blocked in the city, we are not worried about them breaking through.

　　It is obviously very difficult to attack from the front, so at this time, we have to consider whether there is any way to allow them to open the city on their own. "

　　"Unfortunately, no matter how stupid Zhang Lu is now, he has already had people guard the city's defenses, and I have told them to stop moving in order not to expose my eyeliner.

　　In this case, it is not too difficult to instigate the troops of the opposing army to open the city gate.And Zhang Lu is not Liu Zhang. Although this guy is stupid sometimes, he treats his subordinates well.

　　Most of the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong were dead set on Zhang Lu. Now that the attack and defense of the city had just begun, their morale was not yet low, so this method probably didn't work. " Ye Chen said.

　　Just as Pang Tong was about to speak, he heard footsteps coming from the door. Immediately afterwards, Liu Che and Li Shimin walked in. Seeing the two enter, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong hurriedly saluted.

　　"I have seen two Your Majesty." Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong said in unison.

　　Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Two brothers, come here at this time, but have you thought of a good way?"

　　"We knew that you and the two military advisors were discussing ways to break the city. Hey, it's so troublesome, don't talk about it, it's quite a headache." Liu Che said.

　　"It seemed that Pang Tong had something to say just now, so let's hear it." Li Shimin said.

　　Pang Tong cleared his throat: "The other party can defend the city so seriously now, mostly because our army is in full swing, and they have to defend the city desperately in order to survive under heavy pressure.

　　But if we relax this pressure a little, the atmosphere in the city will be very different, and it will be much easier to do what we want to do at that time. "

　　Everyone nodded, Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Okay, I also thought of a way before, and now it's probably time to use it. Come on!"

　　Ye Chen quickly called in a general, and told him for a moment, the man nodded again and again: "Yes, Your Highness, the villain obeys."

　　On the second day, the general came to the gate of Hanzhong City with [-] carts, and shouted at the city head: "I am the special envoy of His Royal Highness King Qi, and I came here to present a copy to the military and civilians of Hanzhong. Great gift."

　　The soldiers at the head of the city became nervous: "What gift are you giving, hurry back, or we will fire arrows!"

　　This general hurriedly said: "We want to have a good talk with General Zhang Lu. These are just greetings. General Zhang Lu may not be unwilling to talk to us, and I would like to ask the brothers above to tell us."

　　This sentence makes sense. Zhang Lu is also unwilling to lie in the city and be an iron king. As soon as he heard someone coming to give gifts, he immediately let the suspension bridge down and let him and [-] carts come in.

　　At the beginning, the defenders in the city were still very nervous, wondering if there was something tricky in these carts, maybe how many soldiers were hidden inside.

　　As a result, after I personally checked it, I found that all the wine inside was full of fine wine, and the wine was mellow and intoxicating.

　　Recently, because of the need to save food for military rations, many breweries in the city have stopped working. The climate in Hanzhong is humid, and most of the people in the city have the habit of drinking, and many people are addicted to alcohol.

　　Since the supply of this wine has been unable to keep up, many people have been living their days like a year. Now it seems that Ye Chen has delivered [-] carts of fine wine in one fell swoop. Roughly estimated, there are thousands of jars.

　　"Our Highness King Qi said that in the turbulent times, everyone fights for the justice of the world, not because of personal grievances.

　　So no matter if you and I kill you or me on the battlefield, you don't have to do anything too extreme. These are some small gifts for the military and civilians in Hanzhong to enjoy.

　　His Royal Highness also said that General Zhang Lu was able to sit in Hanzhong and make the operation of the place prosperous. This itself shows that the general is a wise person. If the general is willing to talk to us about reconciliation and surrender, our army will welcome him.

　　In the future, His Highness will also play Ming Han Emperor and reward the general for his merits. If the general is not willing to join us, His Highness will respect the general's opinion.

　　When the two armies are fighting, there is no need to involve the people and make life devastated. Our army will continue to besiege the city in the future, but if the people in the city need any supplies, we are still willing to do business with the people in the city. "

　　Zhang Lu was overjoyed when he heard it: "Are you serious?"

　　"Of course it's serious." The general said according to the lines that Ye Chen taught him: "His Royal Highness said, no matter if the general keeps this place or we take over the place, everyone doesn't want a side of the land, so it's even more impossible to let the people here. The people suffered.

　　No matter what we do in the future, we hope that it will not affect the livelihood of the people in the city. We can negotiate what we need, buy it with money, or barter! "

　　As soon as he heard what the general said, Zhang Lu immediately said: "Ye Chen is still a loyal person! All right, please tell His Highness Ye Chen, this time we are a battle of gentlemen, and Zhang Lu is here, but his proposal, I accepted."

　　The commander nodded and said goodbye.

　　After this general left, within a few days, I saw a messenger coming from the city, carrying a list of things that the people in the city needed.

　　The generals looked at the list for a long time, and Zhang Han said directly: "These guys are clearly talking nonsense. They want five thousand catties of bamboo branches. What do ordinary people want bamboo branches for? Eat? I really thought they were all giant pandas!"

　　"That's right." Xu Chu said, "Idiots all know that they are testing us. These bamboo branches are basically used to make arrows. The most important thing in city defense battles is arrows.

　　With enough bamboo branches, there will be inexhaustible bows and arrows, and it will become more and more difficult for us to attack the city. "

　　"Send someone to buy it right away, choose the bamboo branches that are most suitable for making bows and arrows, give him [-] catties, and give him what he wants. Of course, he has to collect money. If he has no money, let him exchange it for something." Ye Chen Directly ordered.

　　Everyone looked at Ye Chen with the eyes of an idiot, while sending troops to besiege the city, while selling such important military assets to the enemy, what does this mean.

　　Ma Chao was immediately annoyed: "Your Highness, the bamboo branches you gave him will be the bows and arrows shot at our soldiers in the future!".

Chapter 338

　　Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Yes, you think I don't know what these bamboo branches can be used for? Zhang Lu is not a fool, and neither are we.

　　Zhang Lu is just like this, just want to test to see if we are sincere in exchanging materials with them, then I will show my sincerity.

　　If he wants bamboo branches, I will give him bamboo branches. In the future, he will make bamboo branches into bows and arrows and want to kill our soldiers. As long as I don't let our soldiers go to attack the city, that's fine. "

　　After saying a word, all the people next to him were stunned. As far as Ye Chen's logic was concerned, it was basically the same thing as "how to keep clothes clean, answer, you can always be clean without wearing them".

　　"Brother Ye Chen, have you had any other ideas?" Liu Che asked in a low voice.

　　"Brother Che, you understand me, but I'm not in a hurry to tell you what to do. In short, do as I say. I'll know in a few days if my method will work." Ye Chen said.

　　Time passed a little bit, and after a few days, Zhang Lu really sent someone to send the second purchase order.

　　After seeing the materials required to be purchased on this list, Ye Chen smiled directly: "Okay, it's interesting, come and come, and send our quotation to others."

　　A few people next to him hurried over, and finally sent someone to send Ye ~ Chen's offer.

　　After confirming that the quotation was correct, Ye Chen asked people to buy things immediately and send them to Hanzhong City, but at the same time, they also deducted a few items from it.

　　"Tell them they are out of stock." Ye Chen said directly.

　　A few days later, Zhang Lu sent another purchase order, looking at the third purchase order, Ye Chen smiled slightly: "No problem, these people are on the road, look, this time It takes a thousand jars of wine!"

　　The person next to him hurriedly looked at the list: "My God, why are there so many?"

　　"It's normal, because this stuff is addictive." Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Brother Che, Brother Li Er, you should all know that it doesn't matter if it was during Brother Zheng's Daqin period, or the Han Dynasty, or even Li Er. Brothers, in the Tang Dynasty, most of the wine you drank at that time was fermented wine.

　　To put it bluntly, these things have not been purified, and the alcohol content is not very high, or someone will claim to be able to drink a bucket of wine at one time, but when we came this time, I specially asked someone to find some that can be used to distill and purify the wine. gadget.

　　With these tools, ordinary fermented wine can be distilled into high-purity spirits. The climate in Hanzhong is humid. Drinking this wine to remove dampness and keep out the cold has a very good effect.

　　The last time I gave Zhang Lu those things, I just wanted him to taste the sweetness, and now this guy is really addicted. "

　　"But what if he's addicted to drinking? You also expect them to be like Zhang Fei. They lost the city by drinking." Liu Che said.

　　"Of course not." Ye Chen smiled slightly: "After all, two hundred and five people like Zhang Yide are rare talents. We can't expect others to lose the city because of drinking.

　　But I am sure that these wines must have become hot-selling products in the city now. Since ancient times, it has been for the benefit of the bustling world and the prosperity of the world.

　　Guess what will Yang Song and his gang do at this time? "

　　Liu Che said directly: "This guy will definitely get some wine secretly, and then make money."

　　"Yes, as long as they use this thing to make money, it's easy to handle. The amount of Zhang Lu's daily purchases is simply not enough, so they will come to me secretly at this time!" Ye Chen said with a smile.

　　"But when they come to you, they won't directly exchange the city for a bar with you." Li Shimin couldn't help saying.

　　"Of course, you can't expect people to use it as a city to exchange it for wine. The so-called boiled frog in warm water, if we want to win this city, we can come bit by bit.

　　We want them to dedicate the city, which is too risky, but we can let them get something else, which is not easy to be discovered, but it is extremely important to them defending the city in exchange for it! " Ye Chen said.

　　When several people heard Ye Chen say this step, they almost said in unison: "Food!"

　　"Yes, there is no shortage of food in this city now, so if you can secretly exchange food for wine, and then sell it privately in the city for gold and silver, these guys will definitely rush to do it.

　　Now, we just want to raise a few giant rats in this city to deplete the food reserves in their city. This is my idea. "

　　"Good guy, brother Ye Chen, this move of yours is bad enough." Liu Che said.

　　A few people were talking when they heard someone from outside say: "His Royal Highness King Qi, there is an envoy from the opposite side. But...the other party was not sent by Zhang Lu, it is said that there are other adults in the city who want to do some business with your highness. "

　　Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Let the messenger come to see me."

　　Soon, the messenger walked into the tent, saluted and went straight in: "Your Highness, the wine that Your Highness has brought into the city has become a hot-selling item in my city for a while.

　　The next time I came here under the order of my master, I just wanted to ask Your Highness to make it easier for us to buy some wine and go home. "

......... 0 ...

　　"Okay, we are not short of gold and silver now, but the army is short of grain. If you want to exchange it, you can exchange it for grain. You should also know that this wine is made from grain, and five catties of grain may not be able to make such a catty. liquor.

　　If you want good wine, it's simple, ten catties of grain and one catty of wine, including the return shipping cost, twelve catties of grain, I will send one catty of wine to the city. " Ye Chen said.

　　At first, Ye Chen thought that the other party would bargain, but the other party didn't bargain at all, so he nodded happily and agreed.

　　"The price offered by Your Highness is very fair. Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will have people transfer the food to the city at the head of the city tomorrow at three o'clock.

　　At that time, please ask His Royal Highness to arrange manpower to respond under the city, we will take care of the defenders at the head of the city, and both of us will complete the transaction without knowing it. ' said the messenger.

　　Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Okay, I promise this, how much do you want?"

　　"Five thousand catties." The messenger said, "Tomorrow we will send [-] catties of grain to the city. But... Why doesn't your Highness ask who the master is?"
