The Chu State no longer restrained the enemy. It turned out that it was just because of lack of food and grass!
You should have told me earlier!
This caused a sudden increase in pressure on our country, Zhao, and we lost many soldiers on the battlefield...
Isn't it just a lack of food and grass?
My country, Zhao, lacks everything except money and food!
Before the winter of last year, King Zhao Yongqin led an army of 200,000 to sweep across the northern border of Qin, plundering countless lands... How much food was plundered has not yet been calculated!
I saw Fei Yi’s heroic spirit rising suddenly——
"Isn't it just some money and food? What a waste!"
"The dignified Marquis Quyang, whose reputation is renowned throughout the world, is so heroic and short-tempered?"
"Chu and Zhao have been friends for generations. When Chu is in trouble, Zhao is in trouble! How much food does Chu need... I, Zhao, are willing to help!"
Xiao Hei on the side couldn't bear it anymore.
He turned his head away and grinned.
Bullshit 'Chu and Zhao have been friends for generations'...you really dare to say anything!
Chu State and Zhao State are far apart, and they have always been in harmony with each other - it has only been less than three months since the formal alliance was formed.
Xiong Wuliang, on the other hand, covered his face with his hands and looked shocked!
"Is this...is this true?"
"However, the gap in Chu State is really not small... I am afraid that the number is too large, and it will also drag down Zhao's allies..."
By the way, why is Xiong Wuliang covering his face?
I couldn't hold back my smile anymore... I had to block it with my hands!
Last winter, Xiong Wuliang used the land in Yingdu to blackmail the old nobles... Until now, the disaster relief in the Huainan Plain has basically been successfully completed.
The entire Chu State has passed the most difficult time.
It is developing steadily and prosperously.
If Xiong Wuliang is allowed to use troops on a large scale - it is indeed not enough.
But it has never reached the miserable state of not even having enough money or food to guard the border.
Labor and management spent several chapters dealing with this fat righteousness, and his face was almost cramped... What's the purpose?
Aren't you just waiting for Fei Yi's words?
Thinking back to the battle last year, the Chu State fought hard from beginning to end and was beaten badly by Sima Cuo... You, the Zhao State, were better off. You saw the right moment to hit the sap, and easily reached the outskirts of Xianyang, with the spoils of war. countless!
OK OK.
We are here to fight evil, but you are here to pick peaches?
Just imagine that our unscrupulous prince has always played the role of 'picking peaches', but today his role was changed by Zhao Yong... When did Qu Yanghou suffer such a big loss?
If I don't take this opportunity to order something back...Xiong Wuliang simply can't sleep well!
…
At this moment, Fei Yi had already been bitten by the shameless Xiong Wuliang...
Just listen to Fei Yi wave his hand in confusion: "Don't worry, Lord!"
"I, the Great Zhao, are crowned in the north, and I have plenty of money and food!"
"Fifty thousand gold in goods and three thousand carts of military rations...are they enough?"
Xiong Wuliang was overjoyed!
Hold the grass!
It seems that this Zhao countryman... really made a lot of money last year!
Needless to say, 50,000 gold—it is a large number.
It should be noted that Xiong Wuliang built the entire Quyang County into a world-famous business center. He built shopping malls, built roads, and built a harbor... He only spent a total of hundreds of thousands of gold.
To control the refugees in the entire Huainan Plain, only six to seven hundred thousand gold has been spent so far.
This Zhao Guoren waved his hand and received a huge sum of fifty thousand gold!
Cow's cow's.
As for three thousand carts of military rations... it is already a large enough number for one hundred thousand soldiers to fight for a long time!
Xiong Wuliang clapped his hands and finally put down the hand covering his face: "If this can be done, great things will happen!"
"It's just that food and salary alone are not enough - in last year's war, Chu State lost countless swords and halberds, and its arsenal was empty... If Zhao State can support some ordnance, Chu State will have the capital to fight..."
"After all, if the sergeants stand on the border with bare hands, they may not be able to contain the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Han..."
Fei Yi nodded: "This is very true - in this case, Zhao will support Chu with 10,000 sets of various types of ordnance and 300 carts of iron materials!"
"These ordnances were captured by the State of Zhao from the Qin people. Some are standard weapons of the Qin soldiers, and some are inferior spears in the hands of militiamen and civilians. The quality varies... However, as long as they are repaired a little, they can be used."
At this moment, Xiong Wuliang's eyes had turned into the shape of golden copper coins... He said even more aggressively: "I'm afraid it won't be enough just to have food, wages and weapons..."
"If our Chu State wants to reorganize its armaments as soon as possible and redeploy its garrison troops to the border... In addition to transporting grain, grass and ordnance... we will also need some livestock..."
Fei Yi breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face.
I thought it was no big deal.
Just livestock!
Zhao State is located in the north, and after conquering many grassland tribes, the most indispensable thing is livestock and furs, the specialties of the grasslands!
Fei Yi smiled slightly: "If you want war horses, it's absolutely impossible...but if you want some bad horses, mules and donkeys...it's easy!"
"Three thousand mules, donkeys and bad horses can be sent to Yingdu within two months!"
Xiong Wuliang was so moved that he almost cried...
It is impossible to get war horses... Although Zhao State has no shortage of war horses, even if the war horses are slaughtered and eaten, it is impossible to give them to Chu State, which lacks war horses.
Being able to get three thousand inferior mules and horses is already pretty good!
At this moment, Xiong Wuliang could not wait to pick up Fei Yi and kiss him!
Good guy! Good man!
…
Afterwards, Xiong Wuliang repeatedly patted his chest and promised - as long as Zhao's assistance is in place, he will immediately send troops to the front line!
A series of oaths and oaths, many of which can be called vicious...
Feiyi originally thought that this young Marquis Quyang was a kind man, but when he saw this guy swearing poisonous oaths repeatedly with tears in his eyes, he naturally believed it... He stayed in Yingdu and had a luxurious banquet, and was eaten by Shaohu and Gesuyi. Taking turns in battle and drinking a lot of wine...
After drinking this meal, I was in a state of darkness!
Until noon on the third day, Fei Yi was still dazed and not completely sober...
In any case, Fei Yi was involved in state affairs after all - now that the deal had been reached, he had to return to Handan as soon as possible and could not stay in Yingdu for too long... Even if he was not completely sober, he could only try his best to get on the road.
Xiong Wuliang left the city in person and sent each other off affectionately for twenty miles before bidding farewell to Fei Yi...
The famous Marquis Quyang actually traveled twenty miles away for him... Fei Yi was really moved. I left Yingdu happily and ran all the way to Handan!
After returning to Handan, Fei Yi rushed to the front line of Zhao State without stopping, and met Zhao Wang Zhao Yong who was personally raising an army to fight.
The narration was also mixed with Fei Yi's admiration for Xiong Wuliang's noble character.
Zhao Yong was still a little suspicious at first, but seeing his old brother patting his chest and vouching for Xiong Wuliang, he became eight percent convinced...
Carts of goods, grain, ordnance, iron materials, and three thousand precious mules and horses... lined up in a long queue and were sent to the homes of poor brothers in the far south via the Qi State...
