Chapter 624: Shuofang City
Chapter 627
In fact, Lu Luo didn't care who Cheng Dalei would send to Liangzhou City as a hostage. But if Cheng Dalei was given a city, if he didn't make his own request, Cheng Dalei wouldn't believe it.
In addition, it would be a good thing if there was a hostage left in Liangzhou City to restrain Cheng Da Lei.
Cheng Dalei looked around the hall, not thinking about who to let be the hostage. It stands to reason that Cheng Dalei's children should be sent to Liangzhou City. No, Da Lei has no children, but it also saves a lot of trouble.
Cheng Dalei sighed and said, "At present, we are short of manpower here, and of course we also hope to send someone to reconcile the cooperation between the two companies." I have a candidate, and Mr. Lu will consider whether it is feasible. ”
"Who?"
Xue Wenting. ”
Cheng Dalei slowly said three words, this is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Cui Xiang regards him as a pearl in his palm. She's still staying in Toad City, which can come in handy.
Lu Luo hesitated slightly, and finally said: "I can't make the decision on this matter, and I need to go back and discuss it with my king." ”
"Don't worry, when you discuss it, it's not too late to talk. ”
Lu Luo hurried back to Liangzhou City and discussed the matter with Song Bokang. The stakes are high, and it is not something that can be decided in a day or two.
Almost as soon as he left, Cheng Dalei spread out the map of Liangzhou, and Liu Bei and a few people came over, and everyone looked for the location of Shuofang City together.
Cheng Dalei had already sent people to draw a topographical map of the entire Liangzhou. At present, although he has not yet thought of replacing Song Bokang, he still has to make preparations.
Compared with Toad City, Shuofang City is a big city, and Qinchuan Pass, the predecessor of Toad City, is only a border pass, which mainly plays a military role. Cheng Dalei has been tossing for the past few years, and he has finally made some improvements. But in terms of population, resources, location, etc., it cannot be compared with Shuofang City.
Of course, the defense of Toad City is definitely stronger than Shuofang City, but Cheng Dalei has the ability to build Toad City like an iron bucket, and he may not be able to run a Shuofang City well.
"It's just that why Song Bokang is willing to give Shuofang City to us, it doesn't make sense?" Liu Bei frowned and thought.
"Alas, he wants to eat Bailisheng, so naturally he doesn't want us to interfere, and gives us a city, but buys one of us and doesn't move. He Shen excitedly said that he could expand his territory, and he was the happiest among them, and his ambition finally took the first step.
"That's what I said, but the pie that fell from the sky may not be delicious?" Cheng Dalei said: "I always have to figure out what they have in mind." ”
After Ah Xi got the order, the spies planted in Liangzhou City immediately launched an operation to spy on the inside story of this matter. However, this matter was done extremely secretively, and only Song Bokang and Lu Luo knew about it in Liangzhou City, and the spies under Ah Xi inquired, but in the end they didn't find any useful news.
Liangzhou City has sent people here several times, and the two sides have had close contact, and at present, it seems that this matter is almost completed.
On this day, Lu Luo came to Toad City again, and was led to the flower hall of the City Lord's Mansion, where Cheng Dalei sat and drank tea.
"Congratulations to Cheng Boss, congratulations to Cheng Boss...... Lu Luo hurriedly said hello as soon as he came.
"Lord Lu, please sit down, I don't know where my joy comes from. Cheng Dalei waved his hand.
"The king of my family has promised that there is no need for Toad City to send hostages, and it has been agreed that Miss Xue will exchange Shuofang City. "Lu Luo.
"Oh. This was beyond Cheng Dalei's expectations: "Did the King of Liangzhou really agree?"
"Yes, yes, but there is one more request from the king of my family?"
"Excuse me?"
"This battle needs the assistance of Toad City, and Cheng Dangjia needs to send a group of men and horses to help us win this battle. ”
This request is not excessive, Cheng Dalei always has to give Song Bokang something to make him feel at ease.
"I responded to this matter, I don't know if the king of Liangzhou has taken a fancy to my team in Toad City?"
"This is naturally arranged by Cheng, but if it is a dragon army, it is naturally best not to have it. ”
The Dragon Army led by Zhao Zilong was the only cavalry in Toad City, and although it was not many in number, it was extremely strong in combat. This Lu Luo suffered a loss at the hands of the Dragon Army.
Cheng Dalei thought for a moment, and then said: "Okay, when the king of Liangzhou needs it, my three thousand dragon character army will be dispatched." ”
As soon as he heard this, Lu Luo was overjoyed, and he negotiated this matter, which was also a great achievement for himself. The lost identity and status can be regained a little.
Cheng Dalei personally repaired a letter and asked Lu Luo to bring it to Song Bokang, as for the detailed handover time, the two sides still have to determine.
With Cheng Dalei's letter, Lu Luo hurried away. Cheng Dalei sat alone in the flower hall, and suddenly sighed softly: It's a pity that Baili Sheng.
After Lu Luo left, Cheng Dalei sent someone to summon Zhao Zilong to the City Lord's Mansion.
"Big boss, you look for me. ”
"Well, there's something I want to discuss with you. Cheng Dalei told Zhao Zilong in detail.
"This ...... Let the Dragon Army help others go to war?"
"Hey, don't get excited. Cheng Dalei said: "If we don't send hostages and soldiers, how can Song Bokang trust us." Letting you go is nothing more than a sign of our sincerity, and we will not stumble on them behind our backs. You don't necessarily need to go into battle, you always will. ”
"Oh, I see. Zhao Zilong suddenly realized: "However, I am worried that doing so will hit the morale of the Dragon Army." The big boss also knows that the Dragon Army has never suffered defeat. ”
The Dragon Word Army is a strong army in the hands of Cheng Dalei, and they are indeed not very accustomed to failure. It is not necessarily a good thing to wear down the invincibility of soldiers in this way.
Cheng Dalei pondered for a moment and said: "Then send other troops, but they are still led by you, and they are still under the banner of the Dragon Army outside." ”
Liangzhou and Cheng Dalei finalized this matter, and after mutual transactions, the cooperative relationship has been determined.
This is a good thing for Cheng Dalei, but it is not necessarily a bad thing for Song Bokang. He sharpened his knives, and he could finally free up his hands to eliminate Bailisheng's forces in Liangzhou.
There is always a reason to send troops to fight, and Song Bokang has been concocting this reason recently. He arrested a few Rong tribes for no reason, and from the mouths of these Rong tribes, he got them to secretly communicate with Bailisheng.
So he repaired a letter and handed it to the imperial court, saying that Bailisheng secretly colluded with the Rong people and plotted against our empire. Without waiting for the imperial court to reply, he reorganized the army and sent men and horses to prepare to attack Bailisheng.
As for how those Rong people came to be, and how the illiterate Rong people came up with a detailed confession, no one cares.
Of course, before that, Song Bokang had to complete the handover of Shuofang City with Cheng Dalei, and then he could go all out to deal with Bailisheng.
After the handover of the two sides, Cheng Dalei personally came to Shuofang City to see what the situation of his newly acquired city was.
