,.
Fei Changliu: "Everyone knows everything, why pretend to be confused!"
"Put this aside for now." Niu Youdao doesn't want to talk about this, and that's not what he invited people to talk about. We can't talk about this anymore. Those things have been sold at a low price. He can't take out anything, and he can't take out so much. money to compensate. "Song Jiuming said that if he kills me, he can come back. He promised Liuxian Sect benefits and drove Liuxian Sect to work hard. I wonder if I am right?"
Fei Changliu looked surprised and confused, wondering how the other party knew.
Zheng Jiuxiao and Xia Hua looked at him in surprise and cursed secretly. The Song family has always favored the Immortal Sect. Why didn't they say hello to us
Peng Youzai, who was sitting on the other side, knew something about the situation. Shang Chaozong seemed to have placed spies at the Song family. The news that Shang Chaozong passed to Niu Youdao was also conveyed by Tianyumen, so he knew it.
Fei Changliu: "I have already said that as long as you compensate for the damage to my shop, the rest will be over."
Niu Youdao: "Master Fei, the Liuxian Sect could not kill me before, and now I dare to say that the Liuxian Sect will not be able to kill me in the future. I dare to ask how Song Jiuming will come back and how he can fulfill the benefits promised to the Liuxian Sect. ?”
Fei Changliu: "Don't you understand what I mean? Compensate the Liuxian Sect's losses, and the rest is for the sake of Bingxue Pavilion. I, the Liuxian Sect, will not pursue it any further!"
Niu Youdao just refused to take this issue, "Don't talk about Song Jiu Ming's comeback. How about I make a bet with you? The Song family is about to be destroyed!"
Fei Changliu: "Don't talk to me about the Song family, and don't do this. Everyone has his or her own business in the past. If there are any casualties in helping the Song family, I will let the Immortal Sect recognize it. But the huge sum of money in the shop is The wealth shared by all the disciples of the Liuxian Sect, if you don’t give an explanation here, it will be lost in vain. I can’t explain it to the disciples of the Liuxian Sect. Of course, if you can get the Ice and Snow Pavilion to come out and say that this is not allowed If you pursue it, then I will accept it, otherwise I can only find you!"
Niu Youdao answered the question: "The Liuxian Sect was originally attached to the Song family. Now that the Song family has collapsed, I am afraid that the Liuxian Sect is also in a dilemma about where to go for the time being?"
Fei Changliu: "This is a matter for me to stay in the Immortal Sect, you don't need to worry about it!"
Niu Youdao glanced at everyone: "We have been invited here this time to discuss how to carve up the interests of Yan State's Nanzhou. How do these interests compare with those given by the Song family? If Master Fei is not interested, he can leave now. , I won’t force you, I will always accompany you whether you are alive or dead from now on.”
"..." Everyone here was stunned. Divide Yan State's Nanzhou
Fei Changliu, Zheng Jiuxiao and Xia Hua, you three look at me and I look at you.
After Peng was stunned for a moment, he sneered and said, "It's such a big statement to carve up Nanzhou. Could this be what Bingxue Pavilion meant?"
Niu Youdao stretched out his hand towards Fei Changliu and said, "I said I won't force you. If Master Fei wants to leave, just go."
Fei Changliu seemed to say casually: "It doesn't hurt to listen."
Niu Youdao sneered, looked around, and asked: "Is this reasonable? You want to settle accounts with me, how can I allow you to hear secrets?"
Wu Shaohuan, who was standing behind Fei Changliu, bowed his head and whispered a few words in Fei Changliu's ear before standing up straight.
Fei Changliu's rigid face tightened, and he lowered his eyebrows and said: "If there are really benefits from Nanzhou that can make up for the losses of my Liuxian Sect, I will have an explanation to everyone in the Liuxian Sect, and let go of my previous grudges. It’s not impossible either.”
Niu Youdao asked the other two, "Where are Head Zheng and Head Xia? Should we settle the accounts first or something else?"
Zheng Jiuxiao stroked his beard and said, "Listen before you stop!"
Xia Hua hummed and nodded in agreement.
"In that case, let's listen first." Niu Youdao sneered seemingly mockingly, then looked at Peng Youzai and said: "It has nothing to do with the Bingxue Pavilion. Does it mean that Master Peng thinks that Prince Yongping's ambition is only in Xiaoxiao?" Isn’t it Qingshan County?”
If it was the Bingxue Pavilion's intention, there would be much to be done. When he heard that it was not the Bingxue Pavilion's intention, Peng Youzai immediately disdained: "Who doesn't want to go to higher places? No matter how high your ambition is, you must have the corresponding strength, instead of just talking about it here. "
Niu Youdao responded tit-for-tat: "It's better than doing nothing! Just imagine if Prince Yongping hadn't arrived in Canglu County and done something, Tianyumen would only be a county in Guangyi in Nanzhou. As soon as Prince Yongping arrived, he would immediately help guard Chengdu. After many years of Tianyu Sect taking over the entire Qingshan County, is Prince Yongping just a boaster?"
This was a bit of a mockery of the Tianyu Sect's incompetence, and Peng Youzai naturally didn't like hearing it. He sneered and said, "If my Tianyu Sect doesn't support it, how can he occupy Qingshan County?"
Niu Youdao: "Then why Tianyumen didn't take Qingshan County long ago, but had to wait until Prince Yongping came to take it? Could it be that Tianyumen has the ability to predict the future? It has long known that Prince Yongping can escape from prison and come to Qingshan County , so you have been waiting for me for a long time? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others for what you said? Haha, if Prince Yongping had not settled all parties, would Tianyumen dare to support it? If Prince Yongping had not arranged everything properly to embolden Tianyumen, only I’m afraid that Tianyumen’s power in Nanzhou will still be huddled in Guangxi County.”
"Presumptuous!" Peng You, an elder behind him, shouted angrily.
Niu Youdao picked up the tea cup, glanced at the elder, and slowly raised it to his lips, "If you can sit down and talk, what you talk about is the truth, not who's louder."
After saying that, he softly boasted about the hot tea, took a sip slowly, and continued: "If Prince Yongping of County first came to Guangxi County, he said that he wanted to take over the entire Qingshan County. I'm afraid that the situation will be the same as today, and I'm afraid that he will be provoked in the same way. Master Lai Peng laughed at him in the same way, ridiculing Prince Yongping for not overestimating his own abilities, but what about the reality? Tianyumen probably never dreamed that Prince Yongping would become the master of Qingshan County, right? Today's ridicule is like a recurrence of an old disease ! ”
Fei Changliu, Zheng Jiuxiao, and Xia Hua all thought thoughtfully after hearing this. They felt that this was what happened. Who could have thought that Shang Chaozong could take over Qingshan County so quickly
Peng raised his hand again to stop the furious elder behind him, "You are really sharp-tongued. If the Shang Dynasty Sect really has a way to take Nanzhou, our Tianyu Sect will naturally support it with all its strength. We will only applaud and will not do evil. . But how big is Qingshan County, and how big is Nanzhou? Even if our Tianyu Sect desperately blocks other sects at all costs, what will happen? The two counties of Guangxi and Qingshan only have those people, even if they are all handed over to the Shang Chaozong, Nanzhou With such a big land, can the troops and horses be dispersed and defend it? How can the Yan court give up after occupying a state? You are talking so boldly here, could it be that you have discussed some safe way with Prince Yongping? "
At this point, as he said himself, if he could really win Nanzhou, why not? He stopped the angry elder because he wanted to hear what happened next. As the leader of a sect, he considers the interests of the entire sect. There is no need to delay important matters by getting angry over a few words.
Niu Youdao: "If you want to occupy Nanzhou, the safest way is to have strong troops and strong horses. Relying on your Tianyu Sect's efforts is false. Although your Tianyu Sect has many people, if you really want to throw them out to guard such a big Nanzhou, your teeth will be filled." It’s not enough, so we have to look at Prince Yongping’s side.”
Chen Tingxiu, the elder whom Peng You was angry about before, sneered and said: "It's okay for Feng Lingbo to guard Feng Lingbo, but it's not the Shang Chaozong's fault, right?"
Niu Youdao: "That's natural, but I only support the Shang Chaozong, it's that simple!"
Chen Tingxiu sarcastically said: "You support it, what do you use to support it?"
Niu Youdao: "I don't understand the war. When I was talking and laughing with Prince Yongping and Lan Ruoting, I once asked them how many troops were needed to capture Nanzhou? They said that if it was just an attack, 300,000 elite soldiers would be needed. That's enough! As for the management and defense after the victory, you can just recruit people on the spot. In fact, you don't need too many people for the battle, but too many people will be a heavy burden. After calculation, we can get rid of the 100,000 elite soldiers in Guangxi County. , we still need 200,000 elite troops!”
Everyone looked at him, wondering what he meant by bringing this up when he answered the wrong question.
Peng snorted again: "Guangyi County can support 100,000 elite troops at its limit. That's because Guangxi County is a land of plenty. Adding another 200,000 elite troops will cost money and food that Guangxi County and Qingshan County cannot afford."
Niu Youdao took a slow sip of tea and continued: "This is exactly what I can support, and I can provide financial support!"
Peng Zaizai: "Do you know how much an elite soldier spends on chewing a day? The simplest food and drink cost at least ten copper coins. They also have children to support, and each person needs to be given at least three hundred copper coins per month. It’s enough for a family’s basic life, and it’s enough to cover another ten copper coins every day.”
"It doesn't count the money for clothes, armor and weapons, it doesn't count the money for war horses and generals, it doesn't count the money for training and treating injured people, it doesn't count the unexpected pension."
"Only the minimum basic per person requires twenty copper coins per day. The two hundred thousand elites consume four million copper coins per day, which is converted into four hundred gold coins. In fact, it is far more than four hundred gold coins. Plus other As for miscellaneous matters, raising 200,000 elites would require at least three times more. Without 1,500 gold coins every day, we can’t support it at all.”
"This is only for one day. Ten days is 15,000. One month is 40,000 to 50,000. One year is almost half a million gold coins. And to support 200,000 elite combat troops, how many craftsmen do you have to support behind the scenes? Do you know? Do you know how many horses you need to buy? This does not include war. Once a war breaks out, the human and financial resources required for the preparation and transportation of a large amount of materials, the pensions for a large number of war dead, and all kinds of tricks are added up. The number is even larger. Boy, attacking Nanzhou sounds nice, but the battle is not that easy to fight. It must be supported by strong financial resources. Do you support it? Where do you get so much money to support it? "
Fei Changliu said calmly, "I'm afraid he stole three of our shops. I have some capital before I dare to say this."
Niu Youdao: "There is no need to list these names for me. I don't care about these messes, and I don't understand these messes. I only provide financial support. How to spend it is for Prince Yongping to worry about."
Peng Zaizai stretched out his hand directly, "Where is the money? If you can come up with the money, you can give the Shang Chaozong the financial resources to recruit troops. Let alone attack Nanzhou, I have no objection to attacking the entire Yan Kingdom, Tianyumen.",.
