Two days later, the envoy of King Piliu of Baekje arrived at the Dongnae Army camp at the mouth of the Dasu River.
The messenger brought a reply from King Biliu regarding the redemption of captives. He expressed his willingness to redeem a Fuyu warrior with ten stones of grain.
One stone of grain was equivalent to more than 100 kilograms in modern times. The price offered by King Biliu was simply an insult to Liu Yu.
Liu Yu rejected King Piliu's proposal on the spot. He stated with certainty that in order to punish Baekje for its previous sins of invading Daifang and Lelang counties, these Baekje Fuyu warriors must each pay a thousand kilograms of copper and a pound of copper. There is no room for bargaining for Qianshi’s food.
The envoy sent by King Piliu was shocked when he heard Liu Yu's conditions, although these more than 300 captives of Buyeo nobles were very important to Baekje.
But considering the small and barren land of Baekje, having to pay 300,000 kilograms of copper and 300,000 stone of grain for this is nothing short of an astronomical figure.
This envoy from the Baekje Mu family even suspected that the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty in the Central Plains might not be able to provide such a large amount of property.
But after all, this messenger could not make any decisions for his king. He could only reply to Liu Yu after saying that he wanted to report back to his king.
After sending away the angry Baekje envoy, Liu Yu estimated that the Baekje King Biryu would probably not agree to his conditions, and would definitely recruit armies from major families to attack him.
However, Liu Yu was not afraid at all. At this time, Baekje did not take advantage of the chaos in China to absorb a large number of people fleeing from the Central Plains. The combat effectiveness of these Fuyu people who established the Baekje Kingdom is still lower than that of their compatriots Goguryeo, and Goguryeo is in Under Xianbei in the east.
Liu Yu was confident that the current Dongrai infantry, with the support of naval forces, was enough to fight three times the Baekje army.
Moreover, according to the interrogation of prisoners, it was learned that the major families of Baekje were still conquering the remnants of the Mahan natives in various places.
In the area on both sides of the Daishui River, King Biliu could only mobilize at most 10,000 troops in a short period of time.
According to Liu Yu's standards, most of the Baekje soldiers may not even meet the standards of civilian men in the Dongnae Army. The only ones who can really compete are the three to four thousand Buyeo warriors from various major families.
In the next two days, the Dongnae infantry who came from afar had completely gotten rid of the sequelae of seasickness and fully recovered. They conducted raids on some surrounding Baekje villages, seized a small amount of grain, livestock, and even captured Many men and women.
The terrain near Baekje is very similar to that of Dongnae County. They are all low hills, so the surrounding Baekje villages are very poor. When Liu Yu saw the captured trophies, he even suspected that he had robbed a beggar. nest.
On the afternoon of the third day, Liu Yu received a report from the sentry in charge of surveillance and reconnaissance in front. He found several Baekje forward troops thirty miles ahead, and there must be a large number of large troops behind them. Followed by.
At this time, the envoy of King Biliu of Baekje came again. He told Liu Yu, "King Biliu is a vassal king recognized by the Jin court. King Biliu will not yield to Liu Yu, the prefect of a county who raises troops without authorization." As for the prisoners, there were a thousand Jin slaves in Weili City, the capital of King Biliu. If Liu Yu killed 300 Fuyu prisoners, then King Biliu would kill these Jin slaves and bury them with them. Of course, if Liu Yu killed If you are willing to exchange the captives in your hands, it is another matter. As for any other conditions, the brave and noble King Biliu will not agree to it."
After listening to the arrogant words of the triangular-eyed Baekje envoy, Liu Yu couldn't help laughing. This land has bad feng shui and will make people arrogant and ignorant.
Liu Yu suddenly had a change of heart. He pretended to be peaceful and told the Baekje envoy that he agreed to exchange Baekje prisoners for the Jin slaves in the hands of King Biliu, and in order to express his attitude towards the country, he was willing to exchange Baekje prisoners for the Jin slaves tomorrow. The captives were released first, and then waited for the Baekje people to hand over the Jin slaves to them.
After getting Liu Yu's answer, the Baekje envoy was very happy. In his opinion, this must be because nearly ten thousand Baekje troops appeared thirty miles away. These Jin bandits who came from afar must be afraid and surrendered. Under the pressure of Fuyu's army, after two observations, I found that these Jin infantry only had about 2,000 people, which was far less than the 10,000 troops assembled by King Biliu.
After the proud Baekje envoy left, Dong Ping, Zhao Kun and others couldn't wait to ask Liu Yu.
"Shiro, do you really want to release those Fuyu people?"
"Don't let it go. The words of these Baekje barbarians must sound like farts. If we let them go, they will definitely not fart."
"Yeah, let's wait until we defeat his piece of shit King Baekje tomorrow, and then we can force them."
After listening to everyone's persuasion, Liu Yu smiled coldly.
"Hmph, these arrogant rats are just like barbarian beasts. They are afraid of power but have no morals. We must give them a good memory."
He ordered suddenly, "Send the troops to march out at Mao tomorrow. I will kill these Baekje rats by catching them off guard."
"What to do with the prisoners?"
"All the Mahan natives who are willing to surrender will go together."
After Liu Yu finished speaking, he continued in a cold and stern tone, "As for the three hundred Fuyu people, all of them will be blinded immediately. Only two people will be blinded in one eye. Let these two people lead the way for the remaining blind people. Let them go." When they go back, I want the Baekje people to know what it means to be blind."
Soon, at the Donglai Army camp, which had just finished dinner, waves of rallying trumpets and drums sounded, and all the Mahan natives who had surrendered were summoned to the camp's school grounds.
Amidst the loud shouts of the Mahan people's interpreters, these Mahan natives discovered in horror that the Fuyu nobles who originally rode high on their heads were now dragged to the high platform one by one by these wolf-like and tiger-like Jin people.
Under the horrified eyes of these Mahan people, three hundred Fuyu prisoners were blinded with red-hot iron needles. All the blinded prisoners screamed in agony, including many who prided themselves on being brave. All the soldiers felt their hearts trembling.
Amid the miserable howls that sounded less like human voices, most of the Mahan people collapsed into a ball in fear.
These terrifying Jin warriors were not only more capable of fighting than the Fuyu warriors, but were also a hundred times more terrifying than the Fuyu warriors.
One of Liu Yu's guards kicked the Mahan translator who was already shivering in fear beside him.
"Quickly pass the general's order. All Ma and Han soldiers who have not made any achievements after two battles will be dealt with in the same way as these Fuyu people."
When the sun was about to set, three hundred wailing blind men, led by two companions, walked slowly towards the direction of the Baekje camp in the east.
As the three hundred people connected like centipedes disappeared into the night, Baekje's night came.
