"Please speak to Duke Qin, and I will try my best to satisfy Duke Qin..."
Although Liu Bei knew that this small request from Liu Zhang was definitely not simple, he still had to accept it.
Especially the smile on the corner of Liu Zhang's mouth was undoubtedly a devil's smile in Liu Bei's eyes.
This is when people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads!
Liu Zhang was extremely satisfied with Liu Bei's performance of bowing his head.
"Okay, then just tell me!"
"Gu has always called you a big-eared thief, and I think I never meant to slander you."
Liu Bei's face immediately darkened after hearing this.
What does it mean to not slander?
Do you mean that Liu Bei, the big-eared thief, deserves his reputation?
However, Liu Bei did not refute immediately. He wanted to hear what evil thoughts Liu Zhang was holding back.
"I think the big-eared thief is indeed worthy of your reputation!"
"You pretended to be a clan member of the Han Dynasty, murdered court officials without authorization, supported your own troops, and separatized states and counties!"
"Don't say being called a thief, just call him a thief of the country. Even a giant thief who steals the country in troubled times is not an exaggeration!"
Seeing that the villain's hat is getting bigger and bigger, Liu Bei can't remain silent no matter how forbearing he is.
"Mr. Qin, this is enough!"
"Justice lies in the hearts of the people. You don't need to tell yourself who Liu Bei is. The world will have its own fair judgment!"
Unexpectedly, Liu Zhang actually listened to Liu Bei's suggestion and nodded with a smile.
"Liu Bei, if I were to list your crimes in detail, I wouldn't be able to finish them in three days and three nights!"
"In short, your viciousness is comparable to that of the Yellow Turban thief Zhang Jiao!"
Zhang Jiao, the initiator of the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
It is also considered the main reason for the collapse of the Han Dynasty.
In fact, both Liu Zhang and Liu Bei knew that the Han Dynasty had reached this point and had little to do with the Yellow Turbans.
Without the yellow scarf, you can still create a green scarf!
But again, Liu Bei cannot let Liu Zhang blame him.
"When did Duke Qin become so procrastinating?"
"Please tell me straight! Qin Gong doesn't feel cold, but I feel cold for the captured soldiers!"
While Liu Bei refuted Liu Zhang, he also embraced the image of loving soldiers as sons.
It can be said to be full of scheming!
"Well, in that case, I won't go around in circles anymore!"
"You Liu Bei deserve the title of big-eared thief!"
"As long as you admit it today in front of Gu, in front of the soldiers of both armies, I will release you immediately!"
Liu Zhang opened his hands, showing a righteous and awe-inspiring gesture.
It was such a look that almost made Liu Bei vomit.
What does it mean to be full of benevolence and morality but full of evil deeds? Liu Bei saw it today!
"Mr. Qin, is there any point in doing this?"
"Although Liu Bei is not a saint, he has a reputation for benevolence all over the world. How can he call himself a thief?"
Of course Liu Bei was reluctant!
If this is admitted, the reputation of the big-eared thief will be completely confirmed!
Even for the prisoners under his command, Liu Bei was not a saint, how could he endure such a shame and humiliation.
Liu Zhang had already expected this result, and he spread his hands with a look of helplessness.
"Forget it, I have already guessed that you are unwilling to face the facts!"
"Mr. Qin, don't bully others too much. What do you mean by not being able to face the truth?"
"Is what Mr. Qin said necessarily true?"
Liu Zhang shrugged, showing a look of helplessness again.
He neither paid attention nor refuted, and just looked directly at Liu Bei.
Time passed little by little, until Liu Bei couldn't sit still at all, and Liu Zhang didn't say another word.
"Mr. Qin, if there is nothing else, please ask Mr. Qin to release him as soon as possible!"
Liu Zhang can wait, but Liu Bei cannot wait.
Especially those soldiers who were captured in thin clothes.
If this continues, he will freeze to death!
Forced by helplessness, Liu Bei praised Liu Zhang unwillingly.
"Although Liu Bei and Qin Gong are enemies, I believe that Qin Gong will never break his promise!"
"Big-eared thief, I never said I wouldn't let him go!"
"It's just that we don't have a set time either!"
"Whenever Gu Gu feels better, he will naturally order his release!"
"This doesn't count as breaking your promise, right?"
Liu Zhang smiled, his relaxed expression seemed to tell Liu Bei.
He is not in a hurry, he has plenty of time!
As for whether those prisoners had the time and body to support Liu Zhang until he was happy?
That was out of Liu Zhang's consideration!
As time continued to pass, the anxious look on Liu Bei's face became more and more obvious.
Once again, my understanding of Liu Zhang's treachery was refreshed in my heart.
As long as Liu Zhang did not leave and did not withdraw his troops and return to Yiling, the prisoners would stay where they were.
Then Liu Zhang naturally did not break his promise.
But if this continues, the captured soldiers will freeze to death.
Liu Bei didn't want to accept more than 10,000 corpses!
"Qin Gong, the dignified overlord, is he going to be a rogue?"
"Big-eared thief, it's not that I won't release the prisoners, but you don't want the prisoners!"
"Don't say nonsense. If you say something wrong, can you bear the responsibility?"
It was a delay and a threat, which directly made Liu Bei scratch his head and get upset.
I can't reason with you, but I don't dare to fight.
If he made the slightest mistake, Liu Zhang would threaten him with sharp words.
Liu Bei seemed to be really cornered beyond admitting it.
"Liu Zhang, I can see that you have no intention of fulfilling your promise at all!"
"So what if I agree? You will also put forward all kinds of unacceptable conditions."
"In the end, you will definitely find a tragic reason to excuse yourself!"
"I'm so blind that I believed your lies!"
At this point, Liu Bei didn't care much anymore.
Even if Liu Zhang is angered, he must be labeled as unfaithful.
Only by taking the moral initiative can there be a chance to force Liu Zhang to compromise.
Unfortunately, Liu Bei miscalculated again.
Liu Zhang chuckled several times and was not affected at all.
"Big-eared thief, I just want to advise you, don't bother with this nonsense."
"Listen carefully, this is the only condition. As long as you admit it, I will release you immediately!"
"Listen carefully, it's immediately, immediately, immediately, instantly!"
"Understand?"
I understand XXXX, you beast!
Liu Bei couldn't stop cursing in his heart. He really didn't understand how Liu Zhang could show such a righteous and awe-inspiring look when he said these words.
But all the angry curses, and even the urge to kill Liu Zhang, could only be done secretly in his heart.
After a while, Liu Bei sighed heavily, and Liu Zhang showed a proud smile.
"How's it going? Have you made a decision?"
Liu Bei closed his eyes slightly and nodded helplessly.
"On this one condition, I can't make any more demands after that!"
"Don't worry, I keep my word! It's not you who has no faith!"
Faced with Liu Bei's doubts, Liu Zhang quickly agreed.
Even if Liu Bei asked him to swear at this moment, Liu Zhang would not hesitate.
After all, I have been waiting for this moment for a long time!
Liu Bei took several deep breaths again, the expression on his face was as painful as eating shit.
"Listen carefully, I... am a big-eared thief..."
Liu Zhang suppressed the laughter in his heart and patted his ears gently.
"Louder, haven't you eaten?"
Liu Bei suppressed the anger in his heart and raised his voice again.
"I am a big-eared thief..."
"Bigger!"
"I'm a big-eared thief!"
