    Thanks to the intelligence network that the old traitor Wu has painstakingly managed for so many years, Wu Jun is not completely ignorant of the actions of the Qing court. Kang Mazi approved the armistice treaty signed by Ye Bilong and Wu Jun, and sent  Not long after the second wave of negotiating delegation headed by Wang Xu left Beijing, the news spread to Wuchang City.  At the same time, there is also a piece of claws from Wang Xu and his party's mission this time - persuading Wu Jun to extend the deadline for payment of military pay, food and ransom promised by the Qing court, and to release the Qing Prince Baylor who was captured by Wu Jun as soon as possible  Cum Banner Parasite!

    By the way, it's not how powerful Wu Jun's intelligence network is, the key is that Kang Mazi openly discussed this matter in all the dynasties where officials above the fourth rank in Beijing participated, although this does not rule out that Kang Mazi deliberately created public opinion and  The intention of psychological foreshadowing, but even if Wu Jun's intelligence network does not want to collect this information, it is really difficult.

    After receiving these news, the traitor Wu, who has never had any opinions, had to call a few dog-headed military divisions to discuss and discuss countermeasures with everyone. Coincidentally, because he was coming back, the traitor Wu would find a way to find new raw materials for the new firearms battalion of the Wu army.  The source, Fatty Lu happened to be in Wuchang City too, so Fatty Lu had the cheek to force himself into this meeting¡ªthis was also prompted by the bad luck of the Qing court.

    "Accurate news, good news." As soon as the meeting started, the old traitor Wu, who had his wish fulfilled, announced the good news to several important lackeys with a smile on his face: "The Emperor Mangou and the Mangou court have recognized the old man Ye Bilong.  The thief signed a truce with my Pingxi Palace."

    "Okay!" Hu Guozhu, Wang Shirong, and Fatty Lu applauded and cheered together. They all smiled and said that life is easier now, whether it is rebuilding Wuchang, developing Hunan and Guangxi, paying for the fallen soldiers, developing new weapons, etc.  Wait, you don't have to worry about money and food anymore, and the pressure on Wu Jun's rear in Yunnan and Guizhou can also be greatly reduced-with these two world-famous poor provinces as logistics bases, Wu Jun's life is indeed very difficult.

    "Don't be too happy yet." Old man Wu said with a treacherous smile, "But there is also a piece of bad news. The emperor Mangoumazi couldn't afford so much money and food at once, so he sent Wang Xu, Xiong Cilu and Kong Sizhen  As an imperial envoy, I came to Wuchang to start a second negotiation with the old man. I want the old man to give them some time, or reduce the amount of military pay, food, and prisoners of war. In addition, I want the old man to release their prisoners of war in advance. You say, old man  How should I answer?"

    Having said that, the old traitor Wu took out the intelligence of the Qing court that had been collected by Wu Jun's intelligence network, and handed it to Hu Guozhu, Fatty Lu and others for circulation.  After carefully reading the information, Hu Guozhu was the first to say: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law thinks that it is still possible to consider appropriately extending the payment date of military salaries, food and grass, and prisoners of war ransom.  There, even if we force Emperor Mazi to death, he will not be able to get it out. Moreover, if the pressure is too tight, Emperor Mazi may jump over the wall in a hurry, causing extra problems and adding twists and turns. It is better to make a little concession and take a step back. It will be great for us.  There are benefits."

    "Of course, we can make some concessions in terms of deadlines, but we absolutely must not compromise in terms of numbers. The military pay, food and grass, and prisoners of war ransom that Ye Bilong promised were paid for by our Pingxi Palace with blood and lives. Concessions in terms of numbers are not only disadvantageous, but also harmful to the soldiers.  They can't explain it either."

    "The students agree with General Jinwu's point of view." Wang Shirong echoed: "It is really impossible for the Mangou court to provide such a large sum of money and food in a short period of time. Instead of risking the Mangou court to tear up the peace treaty, forcefully  , it is better to make a little concession and give the Mangou court a little more time, so that you can be more careful."

    Speaking of this, Wang Shirong paused, and added: "However, the Mangou court's request for our army to release the prisoners of war in advance must not be granted! One of the most important reasons why Mangou is seeking perfection now is that we hold the prisoner in our hands.  For these important prisoners of war, if we make concessions in this regard and release the Mangou prisoners of war in advance, the Mangou court will have no worries, and no one can say whether they will continue to pay the remaining military pay, food and prisoners of war ransom."

    "That's right, Gu also thinks so." The old man Wu nodded his head, and said with a relaxed smile: "The annual income of the Mangou court is only more than 20 million taels of silver. This year, in order to support the Southwest War, this annual income has long been spent.  The second is clean, no matter how much you force Kangxi Xiaomazi, he will give it for nothing if he can¡¯t get it out, so in terms of the deadline, you can still make a little concession. But the early release of prisoners of war and the reduction of military pay, food and ransom for prisoners of war, etc., the full dog imperial court wants  Don't even think about it, the old man is not that stupid."

    After finishing speaking, the old traitor Wu turned his gaze to Fatty Lu again, and asked with a smile: "Yifeng, what's the matter? Usually, you are the one who talks the most at times like this. Why didn't you say a word today?"

    "Back to grandfather, grandson-in-law is thinking about one thingBefore that, Fang Guangchen worked hard to hoard enough military rations for three years in Yuezhou for Wu Jun¡¯s long-term plan. As a result, the price of food in Yuezhou was only one-third of that in Wuchang, where the Qing army was entrenched. Wu Yingqi  Seeing that it was profitable, he sold all the military rations.  Wu Yingqi was stopped by a general surnamed Wang, but Wu Yingqi not only refused to listen, but wanted to kill the general surnamed Wang, forcing the Wang surname to surrender to the Qing army.  To the extreme.

    In addition, Wu Yingqi also did a famous stupid thing. "Guangyang Miscellaneous Notes" records: Ma Bao entertained Wu Yingqi, Wang Fuchen and others in his tent. Wang Fuchen found flies in the meal, because Ma Bao had a violent temper and liked to kill people.  If you say it, the cook will die. In order to avoid the tragedy, Wang Fuchen called the flies black rice and ate them.  As a result, after Wu Yingqi found out, not only did he not support Wang Fuchen's doing this, but he laughed at it, wondering if Wang Fuchen would eat the shit if he found a bowl full of shit, which completely angered Wang Fuchen, causing the two to draw their swords at each other, and also forced Wu  The old traitor was forced to personally mediate.  (To be continued.
