Chapter 216 Condition!
Translated by Ga Zhao finally understood this Yang fatty This Yang Hong actually knew about Lu Su’s identity but did not reveal it Instead, he purposefully played a joke on Zhang Zhao His happiness and anger were like actions of awatched the perforet angry This is because if he beca the peace talks If he acted i
“Fine I admit that this Lu Su is not my nephew He is the military advisor of the 100,000 soldiers that attacked Wan Cheng” Zhang Zhao said Lu Su’s identity He knew that Yang Hong already knew about it since Yang Hong played a fool of hier any point of hiding Lu Su’s identity and they could go ahead and talk about the price
“If Brother Zhang Zhao had done that earlier, it would have saved us a lot of trouble! The Wan Cheng prison is on the other side of the city A trip back and forth would have taken a lot of ti Zhao andZhao could not help but feel angry at the complete waste of time He admitted that he concealed Lu Su’s real identity However, Yang Hong already knew about it yet pretended to send out soldiers so that he could laugh at the joke
“Just say it, Elder Yang” Zhang Zhao already prepared hi continued to play with (TN: troll) hi Zhao had no choice but to be obedient and not swindle anyone
“Haha” Yang Hong knows that now is the time to speak about the price and stretched out his palold is not a sold could recruit and outfit 10,000 soldiers or set up a small battalion of cavalry Even medium sized families do not have that kind of ave 5,000 gold to Liu Bei when he hter That man had 2,000 servants and carts full of jewelry It was a truly shocking event Now if Jiangdong wants to redeeold It was like a robbery! Although valuable, Lu Su does not cost so ’s half a year worth of tax
Zhang Zhao calold is still within acceptable li’s military advisor but also the successor to the Lu fa charge and Lu Su was the one handling all the affairs Before leaving, Zhang Zhao received a few thousand gold pieces for the release of Lu Su
That is why Zhang Zhao looked straight at Yang Hong
Now he needs to haggle the price with Yang Hong to lower the price Even if it failed, Zhang Zhao would not feel sad aswould only need to pay a small part of the fee The release of Lu Su would only benefit Jiangdong and it would not do the Zhao was very fa who likes to have horses He offered to pay thousands of gold to look for a fine horse After three years, no one appeared with a horse At that tiive this job tonodded his head In less than 3 ht about buying it, the horse died In the end, he still bought the horse for 500 gold and took the bones of the dead horse back When presented to the king, the king got very angry “I asked you to buy a living horse! What is the use of the dead horse! You wasted 500 gold!”
The official laugh “Do not be angry If you are willing to buy the dead horse, the people will recognize you as so to present you with horses” Not even a year later, three people ca Zhao is treating Lu Su like the dead horse as Lu Su was also like a fine horse Zhang Zhao could use the 5,000 gold to tell the world that they are willing to spend a huge amount of money to redee is desiring talented officers and will go to Jiangdong!
“5,000 gold is too expensive! This is a price that Jiangdong could not accept!” Zhang Zhao said to Yang Hong with a straight face
“5,000 gold?” Yang Hong listened to Zhang Zhao and shook his head “Not 5,000 gold!”
“It’s not 5,000 gold!?” Zhang Zhao froze for aZhao also knew that Lu Su was a person with a people like Sun Ce, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu Zhang Zhao was very intimate with Sun Quan and knows that Sun Quan also fancies this person Lu Su was an honest ood His abilities in battle and adood as Zhou Yu, the reason was because he was less experienced When Lu Su has becoet his own arinal history, Lu Su followed Zhou Yu Although he was s experience from Zhou Yu One day, Zhou Yu contracted a disease on his journey and died He passed away after chasing outand the only archenemy left was Cao Cao Naturally, Cao Cao was very happy and took this opportunity to attack but thanks to Lu Su, who has been gaining a lot of experience, Cao Cao never e
Lu Su’s value was 5,000 gold! Zhang Zhao did not believe that Yang Hong did not know that However, since Yang Hong said it was not 5,000 gold, it rily and shouted “Elder Yang! Are you crazy? 50,000 gold! Even if Jiangdong had that much h to start anew the Yuzhou Cavalry, outfit the whole of the Jiangdong Navy and even restock their provisions
“50,000 gold!?” Yang Zhou laughed at the anxious Zhang Zhao “Brother Zhang Zhao, do not be anxious Do not be rash!+”
“H, we came here with sincerity! If your host Lu Bu does not have sincerity, then there is nothing to discuss You can even let Gan Ning’s navy go back to Jiangxia At worse, ill give it away and join forces with Liu Biao!” 50,000 gold was not soive If it was replaced by provisions, as the prices of food increased because of the tured for 200,000 stones worth of provision Even the a the nobles in Wan Cheng was less than 100,000 stones of provisions Zhang Zhao could not pro to continue fighting He believed that Liu Biao would also happily sit aside and watch the battle
“Brother Zhang Zhao Are you saying you do not want a truce anyed his ser want to have peace talks, I will appeal to tze River!” Yang Hong knehen to be flexible and when to be stiff
“Go down the river?” Zhang Zhao thinks that Yang Hong is threatening hixia and threaten Jiangdong
“Not to Jiangxi!” Zhang Zhao subconsciously said
“Go to Jiangxia?” Yang Hong sneered “Since I have already asked Gan Ning’s navy to withdraw froo to the river instead It is best if Brother Zhang Zhao to go back and wait for our arht about the river The Jiangdong Ar There is a long and natural river that the Jiangdong Ar It would be good if the Lu Bu’s Army did not have a navy After soNavy has destroyed was the Yangzhou Navy The Yuzhou Navy and the Xuzhou Navy have also suffered losses The unluckiest one was the Jingzhou Navy that kept being defeated
Had Yang Hong said this last ti at hitze River The other navies were sizhou Navy could not defeat theed Lu Bu has that weapon! At theNavy was soain, it would not be a joke Now Jiangdong have 2 more navies One is with Zhou Yu and the other is with Sun Quan Zhang Zhao did not dare to gatze River was so long that Lu Bu could just harass them until they were exhausted and then dispatch the Wolf Cavalry Liu Biao and Lu Bu ht as they had a common enemy
If that really happened, hisHis job was toHe
“H could not provide that much In other words, they would need to sacrifice Lu Su “We do not have 50,000 gold! You think too highly of us!” If Jiangdong gave Lu Bu 50,000 gold, the Jiangdong Army would be destroyed They would not have money to pay the soldiers or even feed the soldiers
“Who even said 50,000 gold!” Yang Hong asked rhetorically Although Zhang Zhao has not relented, Yang Hong noticed that Zhang Zhao has already ad Zhao, he did not want Zhang Zhao to go crazy It is true that the navy of 30,000 was defeated However, that was only one part of thewon the battle was also because the Jiangdong Navy was not prepared It was the first time they encountered the ballistae and it was also the first time they had this kind of battle However, the next few encounters would no longer be the saenerals were no pushovers and they could co soldiers for an attack
On the other hand, if Lu Bu had lost these few thousand soldiers, he would be in trouble This is because Lu Bu does not have anyone that can build shi+ps Although Lu Bu could supply Gan Ning with soldiers, he could not give Gan Ning shi+ps
