"Since that's the case, then let's forget about the peace negotiations! Gongsun Yue has incited the war and has no intention of appeasing the anger of Liaodong Prefecture. Then let's see the truth! On this day, our army will march north."
"When we conquer the entire Beiping Prefecture, we can come down and have a good talk.”
"Someone, send Mister Fan out."
As Qin Mu spoke, he waved his hand and sent people to send the guests off.
Seeing this, Fan Fang's eyes revealed a look of fear. He was very clear about the current situation in Beiping County. It was completely powerless to defend. As long as there was an army that could fight, with Gongsun Yue's character, he would probably not negotiate peace.
If the peace talks break down,
If the troops stationed in Chang City were to mobilize again…
At that time,
Who could withstand the wrath of thunder?
Perhaps the entire Beiping County would really be like what Qin Mu had said and fall. At that time, not even chickens and dogs would be left, and people and livestock would be in danger! Thus, Fan Fang naturally did not dare to leave just like that.
"Governor Qin, don't be anxious. This matter is too important. Before I came, I didn't discuss it with my general. How about this? Give us some more time and let me go back to report to General Gongsun Yue. I believe we can give you a satisfactory result. How is it?"
At this moment, Fan Fang couldn't be tough no matter what.
After all,
Qin Mu's army was at its peak, and they weren't a match for him at all. Furthermore, they had the side of morality.
It was Gongsun Yue who had acted rashly and entered Liaodong County without permission. He had even occupied the ground of the five cities. Even if Qin Mu counterattacked and conquered Beiping County, it wasn't impossible.
Especially after witnessing the power of the seven repeating crossbows.
He didn't dare to mention war again.
Based on the current situation, even if they were tied together with Liu Yu, it would not be enough to kill her.
The Seven Repeating Crossbow was simply a great killing weapon on the battlefield. If one were to fight against it, one would basically die. Under such circumstances, as long as one was not tired of living, who would dare to act rashly?
And from Qin Mu's tone, it seemed like he was going to die.
Chang Cheng would definitely eat it no matter what. He definitely wouldn't spit it out.
Unless the two sides started a war, Gongsun Yue would lead his troops to snatch it back. But was that possible? It was just a fool's dream.
In that case,
There was no point in continuing the negotiations. It was better to report to Gongsun Yue as soon as possible.
"Alright, in that case, I won't make things difficult for you, Mr. Fan.”
"However, it's best to be quick. Our army has been stationed in Chang City for a long time and will be very bored. Once they do something, even I won't be able to control them. Who knows, they might continue to attack?”
"In addition, the conditions for our army's peace negotiations are already very clear. This prefect does not wish to continue wasting time on these matters.”
"I understand, of course I understand!"
Fan Fangpei nodded with a smile. He naturally understood the meaning behind Qin Mu's words.
That was to negotiate if they could.
If there was no discussion, then they could only start a war. Then, Fan Fang stood up and planned to take his leave. He had to go back and discuss with Gongsun Yue about Qin Mu's intentions as soon as possible. Before he left, Qin Mu on the main seat said,"
"Mr. Fan, I don't think the Gongsun family is a wise ruler. If you're interested, why don't you come to my tent?”
"Cough cough…the Prefect must be joking. How can I be favored by you? I still have something important to do, so I'll leave first.”
Then,
Fan Fang turned around and left, clearly rejecting the offer.
However, it didn't matter. In any case, Qin Mu was just casually probing.
There were too many official matters in Liaodong Prefecture. It was already too much for Zhang Liang and Liu Bowen to handle. Therefore, they had to find new people to replace them as soon as possible.
It seemed that…
It was time to make a trip to Yingchuan. After all, most of the talents of the Eastern Han were probably gathered there.
……
The words are divided into two parts,
After Fan Fang left the prefect's mansion, he immediately headed for the inn.
After that, he gathered a few servants and directly rode a horse in the direction of Beiping County. He did not dare to delay for even a moment regarding He Tan's matter.
Finally, he rushed back to Gongsun Mansion in Beiping County.
After learning that Fan Fang had returned, Gongsun Yue immediately gathered all the generals and strategists at home. However, when everyone heard that Qin Mu actually wanted to occupy Chang City, their faces couldn't help but darken.
After all, this was no small matter.
Chang City belonged to Beiping County and was the gateway. If he ceded this city, wouldn't Beiping County be a juicy piece of meat for Qin Mu in the future? Whenever he wanted to eat, he would just rush over!
But if they didn't agree, then they had to fight.
In the past, perhaps they would still have some fighting spirit.
But after hearing Fan Fang describe the seven repeating crossbows, all the generals calmed down.
After all,
They were not stupid. Even the soldiers who had just entered the battlefield knew how powerful bows and arrows were. They could kill their own soldiers from a few hundred steps away. An ordinary archer army was already a headache.
Moreover, it was a seven-bolt crossbow.
Fighting with such an army was akin to suicide.
No matter how many soldiers there were, it would not be enough for them to harvest. Moreover, the current military strength of Beiping City was seriously insufficient.
The generals 'fear of battle made Gongsun Yue even angrier.
He threw the teacup in his hand on the ground and said angrily,
"Hmph, what a good Qin Mu, what a good Northguard Marquis! A certain family originally wanted to negotiate with him, but now it seemed that there was no need for that? You actually want my Chang City? What a joke! I'm Beiping County, a member of the Gongsun family. Who can blackmail me?”
"Since he wants to fight, then fine, I'll fight with him!”
"Men, gather the soldiers and mobilize all the prefecture soldiers that can be mobilized. Today, I will send troops to Chang City and swear to fight Qin Mu.”
As Gongsun Yue spoke, there was still some anger in his eyes.
Originally,
His fiery personality was well-known in Beiping County.
From Gongsun Yue's point of view, he was already giving Qin Mu a lot of face by lowering his head and taking the initiative to negotiate peace with him. The latter actually had no intention of negotiating and even wanted his Chang City. He was simply daydreaming.
