Chapter Four Hundred and Sixth Is to Be Shameless
Zhang Yu was so courageous that he directly led people to kill in the hinterland of Xuzhou, only a hundred miles away from Xiapi City.
Zhang Yu's name can scare people.
What a big demon king, it sounded extremely mighty.
Although Tao Qian had 50,000 troops guarding Xiapi City, he was also terrified.
Zhang Yu swept all the way, and all the soldiers and horses intercepted by Zhang Yu were scattered by Zhang Yu.
The other party came to intercept Zhang Yu in a hurry, so they could only delay time.
In Xiapi City, Tao Qian's already old face showed a few more wrinkles.
"You shouldn't provoke such a vicious person." Finally Tao Qian sighed.
Even if Zhang Yu can't defeat Xiapi City, Tao Qian can't do anything to Zhang Yu. If Zhang Yu wants to destroy it, some Tao Qian will feel uncomfortable.
"Everyone, Zhang Yu's stay in Xuzhou must be a great disaster. We must find a way to drive him out of Xuzhou." Tao Qian said.
After discussing with several people, it turned out that there was no good solution.
Finally Tao Qian said: "Let Cao Bao and Mi Fang come back and surround Zhang Yu together. Soldiers in other directions must guard against other princes and not move lightly."
Helpless, very helpless.
Tao Qian actually wanted to call back the soldiers and horses he had sent to attack Zhang Yu.
As it got dark, Tao Qian was still worried in the state pastoral mansion.
Although Cao Bao and Mi Fang have been recalled, Zhang Yu entered the hinterland of Xuzhou, and it would be a disaster for him if he didn't solve it.
Tao Qian thought for a long time, and went to call back Mi Zhu who had already gone back. There were only him and Mi Zhu in the study.
"Zizhong, after much deliberation, it would be best if this matter can be resolved peacefully, why don't you go and see Zhang Yu and see what conditions he has." Tao Qian said.
Mi Zhu was depressed for a while, it was nothing to let him run around, but he felt that he was very bad at being a human being.
Mi Zhu finally agreed and went to meet Zhang Yu.
Mi Zhu went back to prepare and then left the city.
Early the next morning, Mi Zhu set off early, but he ran into Zhang Yu not long after leaving the house. At this time, Zhang Yu had already killed thirty miles away.
When the two sides met, Mi Zhu looked embarrassed.
However, he could only bite the bullet and complete the task Tao Qian gave him.
Mi Zhu asked his followers to wait in the distance, and went forward alone.
"Brother Zhang, I won't say much. You will see how to retreat." Mi Zhu said.
"Haha, why don't you retreat? I'm here to do business with Tao Qian. After receiving the money, I'll go home and pick up my wife. Who would make trouble here?" Zhang Yu said with a big laugh.
The corners of Mi Zhu's mouth twitched, what a ghost business.
Did you bring 20,000 soldiers and horses all the way to do business?
"Okay, Brother Zhang, let's make an offer." Although Mi Zhu thought Zhang Yu was shameless, he could still negotiate after all.
"It's very simple. I built a few cities on the banks of the Yangtze River. Don't bother me in the future. The other thing is to use 30 million yuan to pay the travel expenses of the people. You know, hundreds of thousands of people voluntarily said to me this time. Go, it will cost a lot of money along the way, you just pay the money." Zhang Yu continued to say shamelessly.
Shameless enough, even Dian Wei at the side felt embarrassed.
This is obviously to blackmail the other party, and Zhang Yu forcibly took these people away, when did they go voluntarily.
But Zhang Yu is shameless, Dian Wei looks very happy.
"My lord is shameless enough, I'm an honest man." Dian Wei muttered in his heart.
Mi Zhu wanted to say a few words about Zhang Yu, but seeing Zhang Yu's innocent face, he knew that this guy was just pretending to be harmless on the surface. If Mi Zhu dared to bargain, the other party might take the opportunity to increase the price.
"Okay, I'll report back to Mr. Zhou Mu." Mi Zhu said helplessly.
He is a lobbyist, but here he becomes a messenger.
"Haha, yes, it's easy to discuss, we are all reasonable people." Zhang Yu said.
The ghost is reasoning with you, Mi Zhu thought in his heart, if Zhang Yu hadn't come with 20,000 soldiers, he would have been sent away long ago, and he is still talking about reason.
Mi Zhu reluctantly went back to pass on the message.
This time Zhang Yu wanted 30 million, which was also the price he raised outside Huaiyin City.
After Mi Zhu left,
Dian Wei said: "My lord, since when did you become so polite and come to pick it up in person, why does it cost thirty million?"
Zhang Yu shook his head and did not answer Dian Wei.
This naturally has his considerations, just after the war, it is the time of self-cultivation and consolidation, Zhang Yu is not willing to go to war here, besides, the situation in Liaodong is very bad, once this place stabilizes, Zhang Yu will deal with the situation over there. matter.
So here we have to get it done as soon as possible.
Thirty million is a good number, and Tao Qian is already mentally prepared, and it is easier for the two parties to negotiate.
After waiting on the spot for half an hour, Zhang Yu ordered: "Let's make a surprise attack and attack Xiapi City."
Zhang Yu suddenly ordered to attack, yes, he started to attack.
Nearly 20,000 cavalry suddenly launched an attack.
Assaulting all the way, he was under the city in less than an hour.
Mi Zhu was angry and impatient, as soon as he returned to the city, and as soon as he entered the city gate, Zhang Yu led people to kill him.
This is not a negotiation, the two sides have not started talking yet.
"attack."
When they got to the city, Zhang Yu launched an attack.
Arrows rained down on the city.
The defenders on the top of the city had already prepared to block Zhang Yu's wave after wave of attacks.
After half an hour, the attack stopped.
There are arrows everywhere on the top of the city, and there are people who were killed by the arrows.
The half-hour attack put Xuzhou's army under tremendous pressure.
Because Zhang Yu's attack was too fierce.
Although no infantry entered the city, the continuous rain of arrows made it difficult to lift your head, let alone counterattack.
Zhang Yu and the others just learned the fighting style of the grassland army, killing and wounding with endless arrow rain.
Mi Zhu trotted back to the State Shepherd's Mansion to report to Tao Qian.
"Master, Zhang Yu is a scoundrel who doesn't care about any rules," Mi Zhu complained first.
Tao Qian frowned, also showing helplessness.
His staff all received the news and gathered in the State Shepherd's Mansion.
"Tell me what conditions Zhang Yu wants." Tao Qian said.
Mi Zhu panted and said, "The city by the Yangtze River has been occupied by him, and he will not hand it over. Another 30 million is needed."
After Mi Zhu finished speaking, Chen Gui jumped up and said, "Lord Zhou Mu, you absolutely must not agree. Zhang Yu will never be able to break through the city. They don't have infantry, so what are they going to use to attack the city? As long as we gather troops, we will surely be able to encircle Zhang Yu under the city. "
Tao Qian remained silent. Of course he knew that Zhang Yu would not be able to break through Xiapi City, but it would be too difficult to encircle him.
Zhang Yu's cavalry can run, and no matter how many troops there are, it will be difficult to surround him.
Tao Qian was even more afraid that Zhang Yu would run around, and the whole Xuzhou would be harmed by then.
Tao Qian thought for a while and said: "Don't fight. If we can't kill Zhang Yu and let him go back, we will have endless troubles. This man dares to do anything."
Tao Qian was not afraid that Zhang Yu would attack his city, but he was afraid that Zhang Yu would harm the whole Xuzhou, especially the same as he harmed Jizhou.
