"That's right, give Baima and Guandu to me, and I will let them both go immediately," Liu Zhe said.
"What?"
He Yan almost jumped up. He exclaimed, "This, this is impossible."
Yanjin, Baima, and Guandu have always been important ferries for Cao Cao to defend Liu Zhe from the north. Cao Cao spent huge manpower and material resources to operate these three ferries.
Now that Yanjin has fallen into the hands of Liu Zhe, Cao Cao is still worried about how to get it back. How can he hand over the remaining Baima Guandu?
If Liu Zhe had to go to Guandu on a white horse to agree to release Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan, Cao Cao might as well give Liu Zhe one hundred thousand taels of gold.
To Cao Cao, the value of Baima Guandu far exceeds one hundred thousand taels of gold.
He Yan cursed in his heart and kept greeting Liu Zhe. Just now he thought Liu Zhe would give him face and put forward a simpler condition, but unexpectedly he put forward a more harsh condition.
"Don't agree?"
Liu Zhe ignored He Yan's wonderful expression and said: "If you don't agree, then take one hundred thousand taels of gold. Choose one of the two, just choose one from Meng De."
"Lieutenant, this, this"
He Yan didn¡¯t even know what to say.
"If you can't make the decision, go back and tell Meng De my conditions. If he agrees, I will release the troops and retreat." Liu Zhe said.
He Yan¡¯s expression changed. He looked at Liu Zhe, unwilling to give up.
But Liu Zhe didn¡¯t want to talk to him anymore, waved his hand and said, ¡°See you off.¡±
He Yan left almost in despair. His mind went blank along the way and he didn't know what to do.
His mission this time was a complete failure. He failed to accomplish anything. All he could do was go back and repeat Liu Zhe's conditions to Cao Cao and let Cao Cao decide.
He Yan went back and told Cao Cao Liu Zhe's conditions.
After hearing this, Cao Cao was so angry that he trembled all over and wanted to kill Liu Zhe.
"Damn it, damn Liu Zhe, who does he think he is?" Cao Cao greeted Liu Zhe angrily, and he was very angry at Liu Zhe.
He was not surprised by the condition of handing over Sun Cheng. What surprised him was that he was asked to cede land and pay compensation.
"Damn guy, he got Yanjin and still covets Baima Guandu. Who does he think he is? Do you really think he is easy to bully?"
It is absolutely impossible to hand over Baima Guandu. Cao Cao of Yanjin is still trying to find a way to get it back.
The three ferry crossings of Baima, Yanjin and Guandu are very important and can be said to be important communication channels between Yanzhou and Jizhou. By controlling the three ferries, Liu Zhe can be prevented from attacking from the north.
Because of Le Jin's carelessness, Yanjin was occupied by Liu Zhe, which had already tied Cao Cao's hands. Liu Zhe didn't need to make any big moves. He just moved his army to Yanjin, and Cao Cao obediently led his people to block it.
"He still wants Baima Guandu? Absolutely impossible."
Cao Cao gritted his teeth. The remaining two crossings were very important. Even if Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan were not needed, Cao Cao could not lose Baima Guandu.
He didn¡¯t want to exchange Baima Guandu for Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan. After all, Cao Cao would have to pay Liu Zhe 200,000 taels of gold and 1 million dendrobium of grain and grass.
But this condition is also very harsh, and Cao Cao feels a headache.
Not to mention one million hu of grain and grass, it would be difficult for Cao Cao to come up with just two hundred thousand taels of gold. This battle had almost emptied his warehouse, and he was just on the verge of selling himself out.
Ten thousand taels of gold can be used to organize and train about a thousand tiger and leopard cavalry, and two hundred thousand taels of gold can be used to train 20,000 tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers.
With this money to give Liu Zhe, he might as well train 20,000 tiger and leopard riders to fight against Liu Zhe.
"Impossible, Liu Zhe will never bow his head alone."
Cao Cao gritted his teeth, unwilling to accept Liu Zhe's conditions, which were too bullying.
"Is there no other way?" Cao Cao asked He Yan.
There was a little expectation in his eyes, hoping that He Yan could give him a surprise.
But He Yan¡¯s move of shaking his head disappointed Cao Cao, and at the same time he felt a little resentful. He couldn¡¯t convince Liu Zhe?
Disappointed Cao Cao waved his hand and asked He Yan to retreat.
Seeing the disappointment on Cao Cao's face, He Yan felt disappointed and full of anxiety, worried that Cao Cao would look down on him.
"Tell me, what should I do now?"
Cao Cao had no choice. Liu Zhe¡¯s conditions were too bullying. Cao Cao didn¡¯t want toaccept.
"Prime Minister, why don't you let me go down there."
Jiang Jimao then recommended himself. He said: "Let your subordinates go down and persuade Liu Zhe, hoping to make Liu Zhe give in."
"Uncle Ping has no choice. Do you have any good way to persuade Liu Zhe?" Cao Cao asked.
Jiang Ji shook his head and looked unnatural. In fact, he had no good solution.
But now, as Cao Cao's subordinate, he naturally has to solve Cao Cao's problems. If it doesn't work, he has to give it a try.
"If there is no other way, don't go."
He Yan said aloud: "I have tried my best to persuade Liu Zhe, but I still can't persuade Liu Zhe."
He Yan didn¡¯t want others to look down on him, so he deliberately said that he had tried his best. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
