Fifteen days later, Liu Zhang, who was in Nanzheng, Hanzhong, received a reply from Sun Qian.
"Haha, good! Good! As expected of Gongyou! I really did not misjudge the person!"
Everyone didn't understand why Liu Zhang was suddenly so excited and asked him quickly.
"Lord, why are you so excited?"
Liu Zhang smiled so hard that he didn't answer, but looked at Yan Shan aside.
"Yan Juncheng, how much military resources do you think Quejian will give us?"
"this..."
According to Yan Shan's understanding of Que Jian, he definitely couldn't give him anything. But seeing Liu Zhang looking so excited, it was obvious that his guess didn't match up.
"Could it be that they were given thousands of weapons? One hundred thousand stones of food and grass?"
Just as Yan Shan finished speaking, Yang Lin on the side snorted coldly.
"Hmph, how can that thief Quejian give so much? We have six thousand soldiers, and they only give us thirty thousand dan every year! Return weapons? Which of our soldiers in Hanzhong County has a handy weapon?"
Liu Zhang did not blame Yang Lin, but understood him very well. Liu Zhang also sent people to inspect these county soldiers these days, and the results simply shocked him!
These are said to be county soldiers, but in fact they may be worse than bandits! There is no armor at all, and the weapons are all in tatters!
According to the descriptions of Huang Zhong and others, the level of these county soldiers in Hanzhong, that is, the average Yellow Turban thieves, is far inferior to that of the Yellow Turban warriors!
"Haha, don't be angry, Lieutenant Yang, Quejian spent a lot of money this time!"
"My lord, how much did Quejian give? Tell us quickly."
Liu Zhang didn't expect Jia Xu to be so active, so he nodded to him.
"Ten thousand strong bows, fifty thousand arrows! Five thousand war horses!"
"What! So many!"
Before Liu Zhang finished speaking, Yang Lin made a sound of surprise. He also looked at Yan Shan in disbelief.
"Brother Yang, please be patient and let the prefect finish his words."
"My lord, I forgive you, I'm really shocked."
Liu Zhang did not blame Yang Lin and nodded to him with a smile.
"Twenty-five thousand sets of new armor."
"armor?"
"Twenty-five thousand sets?"
At this time, even Huang Zhong and other generals couldn't help but exclaimed.
armor! What concept?
Except for Dian Wei's military guard camp, which had 500 pairs of iron armor, the rest of the soldiers and horses wore leather armor. Moreover, these five hundred pieces of armor were obtained by Liu Zhang when he annihilated the Yellow Turbans. It is simply a fantasy to expect the imperial court to give him armor!
"My lord, with iron armor, you can build an iron-blooded warrior! If you put iron armor on the Wu Feng camp and cooperate with the chariot formation, then...then..."
Taishi Ci was trembling a little. A rapidly rotating iron wheel had appeared in his mind, ruthlessly crushing all enemies!
"My Lord, if Wu Feng Battalion wears iron armor, it will be absolutely invincible on the battlefield!"
Liu Zhang naturally knew this and quickly waved to them.
"Okay, okay, twenty-five thousand pairs of armor, enough for you to share!"
"Lord, where is the food and grass?"
Liu Zhang glanced at Jia Xu strangely, wondering what happened to Jia Xu today, so curious.
"Five hundred thousand dan of food and grass, 300,000 dan will be sent first, and another 200,000 dan will be sent after the autumn harvest!"
Yan Shan and Yang Lin stood up immediately and looked at Liu Zhang dumbfounded.
"Master Taishou, is this really what Que Jian promised to send to Hanzhong?"
Liu Zhang nodded firmly to the two of them.
"Yes, Quejian sent three thousand soldiers to escort them to Yangping Pass. We will just take over when the time comes."
Yan Shan and Yang Lin looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
It’s unbelievable that Que Jian, who lives with nothing but a dime, could actually be a good person and go to the end to send Buddha to the West?
Normally, Su Gu would have to pick up even 30,000 stones of food and grass by himself, but now so much supplies were delivered to Yangping Pass!
"Master Taishou, Quejian is a cunning man. From what I know about him, he will never be so kind. Moreover, Yizhou does not produce horses at all. Where did he get the five thousand war horses? Even if he did, he could safely give them to us. ?"
Liu Zhang shook his head and did not agree with Yan Shan's words.
"Yan Juncheng, we can't think too badly of Que Jian! After all, I have the right to fake the festival given by His Majesty, but can't Jian afford these military resources? Isn't he afraid of losing his head?"
Yan Shan said nothing more, but judging from his face, it was clear that he did not fully agree with Liu Zhang's words.
"Master Taishou, I also think what Yan Juncheng said makes sense. Then Quejian is a villain and greedy. How can he give out these military resources so happily? Not to mention these armors, they only cost 500,000 stones of food and grass. He How long are you going to exploit the people?”
Liu Zhang stretched out his hand to interrupt Yang Lin, and his expression darkened.
"Lieutenant Yang, Sun Qian has sent back the news and recorded the entire negotiation process, even down to the details of Que Jian's reaction after Sun Qian finished each sentence. Don't think too much about it. ”
"And you keep saying that Pan Zhou is a bad person. I have been in contact with him for a few years, and I don't think there is anything bad about him."
Yang Lin didn't react at first, but when he heard Liu Zhang say good things for Pan Zhou, he suddenly became anxious.
"Master Taishou, please don't be deceived by this thief! He..."
"Okay! Of course I can clearly distinguish right from wrong, so you don't have to say anything!"
Yang Lin still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Yan Shan, who pulled him and prepared to leave.
"The governor is right, we two are too sensitive! We have business matters, so we'll leave first."
Liu Zhang ignored the two of them, waved his hand directly and watched them leave.
Even though Yang Lin was reluctant, he was still dragged out of the prefect's mansion by Yan Shan.
"What are you doing to pull me here! Don't you know who Pan Zhou is? Just watch him do harm to us in Hanzhong!"
Yan Shan was also quite helpless, but there was no other way.
"How could I not know that the governor was fed some psychedelic drugs by Pan Zhou, and he actually changed his previous attitude!"
"Hey! How disgusting!"
Yang Lin has a bad temper and is on the verge of exploding at this moment.
I thought that with the arrival of a very strong general, traitors like Pan Zhou could be restrained, but unexpectedly the result was exactly the opposite!
Su Gu was cautious before and did not dare to offend Pan Zhou too much. Now Liu Zhang was bold and unexpectedly became good friends with Pan Zhou!
"Hey, what's going on, you two? What are you doing standing at the door?"
Just when Yan Shan and Yang Lin were angry, a voice that made them extremely disgusted came from their ears.
"Panzhou..."
The word Panzhou was almost pronounced by Yang Lin through his teeth, full of anger.
"Lieutenant Yang has something to do with me?"
Pan Zhou ignored Yang Lin's attitude, always with a smile on his face and a hint of disdain.
"snort!"
Yang Lin simply waved his sleeves and left, refusing to look at Pan Zhou for a second time.
"hehe."
Pan Zhou showed a sneer, and then looked at Yan Shan, who was still where he was.
"Brother Yan, is Governor Liu at your residence?"
Yan Shan nodded and left without saying anything.
"Humph, you two idiots, sooner or later I will make you kneel in front of me and beg me!"
Pan Zhou cursed angrily in his heart and went directly to the mansion.
