The next day, Gu Yong went upstream and arrived at Jiangling.
Although he knew that Liu Zhang was planning a large-scale invasion, he was still deeply shocked when he passed Wulin along the way.
The warships cover the sky and the sun, stretching endlessly.
The naval force drills are massive and extremely elite!
It's no worse than the best Chaisang Navy in Jiangdong!
If they were to face each other head-on, it's hard to say who would win and who would lose.
Moreover, Chaisang Navy is in the hands of Zhou Yu and is currently fighting against Cao Wei in Huainan.
It is also impossible for him to come and resist the Yu Fu Shui Army.
The more Gu Yong looked at it, the wiser he felt, and he persuaded Sun Quan to endure a moment of anger in exchange for a bright future!
When Cao Wei is destroyed and the state of Qin is alone, we can naturally decide the outcome in the water!
With this idea in mind, Gu Yong entered Jiangling City with his head held high and was directly introduced to the Prince of Qin's Mansion.
"Yuantan, I thought you wouldn't come back."
Liu Zhang took a few steps forward and greeted him with a smile.
Gu Yong was very frightened.
"Gu Yong pays homage to King Qin!"
"No need to be polite!"
"Yuan Tan, if you don't come here again, I will go to Jiangdong to look for you!"
It looks like it's full of laughter, but it's actually full of threats.
Gu Yong could only laugh awkwardly.
"Haha, thank you so much for your concern, King Qin. I'm so scared!"
Liu Zhang kindly pulled Gu Yong into the house.
"Yuan Tan is here, there must be something important, so he might as well just tell him."
Gu Yong nodded and agreed, but did not go straight to the topic.
"King Qin, I passed by Wulin on my way down and found that all the fish and water troops were gathered here. I don't know..."
Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then started fighting haha.
"Oh? Really? Haha..."
"King Qin, it seems that after I left, someone came to look for King Qin again!"
"And it's urgent, isn't it?"
Gu Yong's eyes were deep and he seemed to see through everything.
Liu Zhang also chuckled and agreed.
"Yes, someone is indeed in a hurry."
"That..."
Just as Gu Yong was about to speak, Liu Zhang stopped him.
"Don't worry Yuan Tan! Gu knows that he is in a hurry, but Gu tells him not to worry yet."
Gu Yong glanced at Liu Zhang suspiciously.
"King Qin, maybe he didn't listen to you. Not only is he anxious, he's also very anxious!"
"If we can't bear it for a moment, we will stir up the situation!"
Liu Zhang spread his hands, looking helpless.
"Then there's nothing I can do."
"I can only make suggestions, but I don't have the right to make the final decision."
"Of course, Yu Fushui Jun Gu still has the final say. They are also in a hurry, but Gu told them not to be anxious yet!"
"No, they are all waiting in Wulin!"
Gu Yong let out a breath.
Ever since he entered the house, his words were full of threats, which really gave Gu Yong a headache.
Not daring to delay any longer, I quickly went straight to the topic.
"King Qin, I wonder if what I promised you before will work?"
"certainly!"
Liu Zhang looked determined.
"Didn't I tell you to give Yuan Tan thirty days? Don't worry, you won't miss a day!"
"In thirty days, the Yu Fu Shui Army will only stop at Wulin and not move a step."
"Of course, once the thirty days are over, I can't guarantee it. Maybe... maybe we can reach Moling in one day..."
Gu Yong laughed a few times and cupped his hands.
"The King of Qin has spoken seriously. I am here to give a special reply to the King of Qin!"
"Yuantan, please speak!"
"The King of Qin, after my subordinates fought to the death, remonstrated with death, and blocked the lives of hundreds of Gu family members, old and young, finally..."
"Eh, eh, eh..."
Before Gu Yong could finish speaking, Liu Zhang quickly interrupted him.
"Yuan Tan, if Sun Quan doesn't agree, he will pull him down. There is no need to risk so many people from your Gu family."
"I can't bear to be alone..."
"Cough cough cough..."
Gu Yong waved his hands repeatedly.
"King Qin, this is all of my own free will!"
Liu Zhang shook his head.
"That's not OK!"
"Okay! King Qin, it's okay!"
"No, no, no..."
"It really works..."
. . .
The two went back and forth dozens of times until Gu Yong was exhausted and almost went crazy!
thump!
Gu Yong bent his legs and knelt directly in front of Liu Zhang.
"Prince Qin, if you say no again, I will bump my head in front of you and die!"
Liu Zhang froze.
"Uh... ok, ok... you are willing to bury your whole family, what else can I say..."
Gu Yong looked at Liu Zhang doubtfully.
"King Qin, what are you talking about?"
"You didn't say anything. You should get up first."
"Thank you, King Qin."
Gu Yong was not polite. He didn't really like kneeling, so he really had no choice.
Now that the topic is over, I let out a long sigh of relief.
"King Qin, Duke Wu has promised to work with the King of Qin to eliminate the national traitors! In order to show his sincerity, he has agreed to mortgage Yuzhang County and Luling County to the King of Qin as a guarantee."
"But... I have a condition, and I hope King Qin can agree to it."
Liu Zhang nodded.
"Yuan Tan, just say that you are my father-in-law's disciple, how can this friendship be compared to others!"
Gu Yong mentally scolded Liu Zhang for being hypocritical, but he still looked grateful.
"Can you ask the King of Qin to give me a guarantee that it will be returned to the two counties in the future without any excuses?"
"this..."
Seeing Liu Zhang's expression of embarrassment, Gu Yong secretly sighed that he was wise.
I knew he would not pay it back!
Although after getting the Central Plains, the two counties are nothing.
But after all, they are two counties. If you don’t want it, why don’t you want it?
Now it’s agreed that if Liu Zhang doesn’t give it, he can still be harmed!
"King Qin, these two counties were mortgaged to King Qin as a guarantee, not ceded to King Qin!"
"Is it possible that King Qin planned to seize the second county from the beginning? Is the mortgage just an excuse?"
"of course not!"
Liu Zhang denied it.
"How can I be such a person!"
"That..."
"There are difficulties in being alone..."
Gu Yongke couldn't care about that much, let alone Liu Zhang's difficulties.
"King Qin, I have pledged my whole family's lives to King Qin! King Qin can't just keep his word!"
Liu Zhang nodded repeatedly to express his understanding.
"That's it, Yuan Tan, I'll give you a guarantee!"
"As long as Cao Wei is destroyed and the Central Plains is divided, after Hebei, I will return to the two counties!"
"But if Sun Quan does not work hard and only thinks about preserving his strength without attacking Wei in a big way, let alone two counties, his six counties in Jiangdong will have to be taken away!"
Gu Yong thought about it and thought it was reasonable.
His original request was to return Cao Wei after destroying it, which was not unreasonable.
"In that case, can you also ask the King of Qin to make a written statement?"
"no problem!"
Soon, the servants provided pen and ink, and Liu Zhang wrote the document himself.
"After destroying Cao, return Yuzhang and Luling with Liu Zhang's own handwriting!"
"Yuan Tan, see if it works!"
How could Gu Yong dare to say no? He was so happy.
"Okay, okay! Thank you, King Qin!"
"That being the case, this matter is settled!"
Gu Yong nodded repeatedly.
"King Qin, you can send your soldiers to accept the two counties today!"
"Also, our Jiangdong Governor Zhou Yu has already fought against Cao Cao, and there will be good news soon!"
