Chapter four hundred and eighty-ninth alliance under the city

Qiao Mao led more than 40,000 soldiers to leave, eliminate Liu Dai's power in Dongjun, and restore his influence.

Early the next morning, Liu Dai sent a messenger out of Puyang City to see Yang Rui send messages to express his strong desire to seek peace. However, Liu Dai hoped that Yang Rui would make another concession. Some of the conditions raised by Yang Rui were really unbearable to Liu Dai.

However, Yang Rui had no intention of giving in at all. After solemnly rejecting Liu Dai's request, Yang Rui organized an attack for the first time. More than 100 rushing cars came out. Although he did not use other forces to attack, he did not cause much impact on Puyang City in the end, but his momentum came out at once.

Moreover, the exclusive javelin for rushing is a little further than the range of long-range archers at the highest level 6 in Puyang City, so the defensive soldiers on the Puyang City Wall suffered a small loss.

This is Yang Rui's determination to show his strength and attack the city! Liu Dai also understood this truth, but with the situation he was in, although he knew it was Yang Rui's demonstration, he still had no choice.

In the next few days, both the offensive and defensive sides of Puyang City seemed to have put aside the peace talks. Yang Rui did not send any messengers into Puyang City, and Liu Dai did not send anyone out of the city to communicate with Yang Rui.

In fact, Liu Dai has always wanted to send someone to communicate with Yang Rui again, but he is now passive enough. If he looks shy, it will only make the situation worse. The conditions raised by the other party are really unacceptable, otherwise Liu Dai might have already made concessions.

Moreover, based on the current situation, although the Qingzhou tribes had as many as 200,000 to 300,000 soldiers and surrounded Puyang City, it seems that there are not many effective ways to attack the city.

This also made Liu Dai feel a little lucky.

In a few days, the soldiers of Qingzhou did not have any other real attacks except for using rushing cars to cause some damage to the soldiers guarding the city. They did not even get close to the city wall, let alone pose a threat to the city.

As a result, Liu Dai even saw that the other party failed to attack the city and eventually had to withdraw his troops!

However, even Liu Dai himself thought that this idea was unrealistic. The soldiers and horses of Qingzhou were not simple characters. The two cities of Guanxian and Lihu were also heavily guarded, but they were all taken down by the Qingzhou soldiers commanded by Yang Rui!

Thinking of this, Liu Dai was a little worried that Guanxian and Lihu were both captured by each other using strategies. At first, there was no sign of the situation like Puyang City now, and he did not forcefully attack the city.

Therefore, the Qingzhou soldiers may have any conspiracy against Puyang City now!

Liu Dai shook his head with a headache. It was too incredible that the Qingzhou army had used the strategies used by Guan County and Li Hu before. I wonder what methods would be used to deal with Puyang City?

Although the previous two strategies did not work much, because the terrain of Puyang City did not meet the conditions for being attacked by water, Liu Dai believed that he would not have been deceived out of the city in any form. However, the performance of the Qingzhou tribe was surprising, and it is difficult to guarantee that he would not make any other moves.

After another day passed, what Liu Dai was worried about seemed to finally appear. Several informed soldiers from around Puyang City appeared abnormally in Puyang City, passing on the fact that Prefect Qiao Mao was restoring influence everywhere to Liu Dai.

The territory of Dongjun was originally Qiao Mao's territory. Qiao Mao appeared again to gather his power, obviously not giving him Liu Dai a way to survive!

Qiao Mao has a foundation in Dongjun. It is not difficult to take advantage of the Qingzhou military forces to restore the influence in Dongjun. Moreover, Liu Dai also knows what the prefect of Taishan County Ding Yuan is doing. If the Qingzhou Prefecture soldiers, Qiao Mao's military and Ding Yuan's military generals all divide the territory of Dongjun. What's the use of Puyang City in the end?

In order to defend Puyang City as long as possible, Liu Dai also evacuated the NPC people in the city almost all. If Qiao Mao and others occupied all parts of Dongjun, Liu Dai would lose all the foundation for his foothold.

At the same time, the soldiers of Qingzhou may not be able to siege Puyang City for how long. The longer the time is, the more unfavorable it will be for Liu Dai!

It can be said that Liu Dai not only faces losing his foundation, but also facing losing the hearts of the people...

Thinking of this, Liu Dai thought about it, and then sent an envoy out of the city, found Yang Rui, and agreed to all the conditions that Yang Rui had put forward before.

Liu Dai's reaction was beyond Yang Rui's expectations. In recent days, Yang Rui was discussing with Guo Jia and others how to force Liu Dai to surrender, or have any plans to take Puyang City. Unexpectedly, after Yang Rui deliberately released several Liu Dai's correspondent soldiers into Puyang City and brought Qiao Mao's action news to Liu Dai, the current effect would be produced.

This saves Yang Rui a lot of effort. After all, it is definitely not an easy task to capture Puyang City.

To be honest, the conditions proposed by Yang Rui are enough to force Liu Dai into a desperate situation. It is not so important whether to attack Puyang City or not. These conditions are even no less than the agreement reached by Yang Rui and Dong Zhuo.

First of all, in terms of territory, Yang Rui put forward great restrictions on Liu Dai, leaving only the area south of Fan County in Dongjun to Liu Dai, which changed Liu Dai's territory from most of the initial half of Yanzhou to only half of the county.

As the governor of Yanzhou, Liu Dai had already involved almost all other regions of Yanzhou except Beihai Kingdom and Dongjun. Although he was only loosely controlled, he gradually gained more real power after changing history to maid. However, it is undeniable that he once had a large territory in nominal terms.

This situation was broken by Yang Rui after the heroes attacked Dong. First, he assisted Qiao Mao to resist Liu Dai and Yuan Shao's attack, compressing Liu Dai's strength to the areas of Dongjun, Dongping and Dingtao. Then, when Yang Rui took the initiative to provoke trouble, only half of Liu Dai left in Ladong County.

Liu Dai can be said to have completely fallen into Yang Rui's hands!

Secondly, in terms of compensation, the amount proposed by Yang Rui is still 10 million gold coins, the same as the compensation agreed by the previous agreement with Dong Zhuo.

Liu Dai has been the governor of Yanzhou for a long time, and he should have accumulated a lot of money during this period. He is from the Han royal family, so he should have a large amount of money in his hands. This can be seen from the speed of Liu Dai's expansion of his army.

Recently, Liu Dai said that he has also expanded 200,000 to 300,000 soldiers. According to the standards of recruitment of soldiers at all levels of state, county, and county soldiers, it is impossible to spend millions of gold coins, and even more.

In this regard, Yang Rui can compare the cost of his conscription. Some time ago, he expanded the number of soldiers by about 300,000, spending as many as three or four million gold coins. Many of them were Yang Rui's own private soldiers.

Although Liu Dai has accumulated some financial resources, it is obviously much inferior to Dong Zhuo, who once occupied the Luoyang Imperial City. It is also 10 million gold coins. It may only hurt when it is placed on Dong Zhuo, but it may take half of its life to put it on Liu Dai!

The third condition is that Yang Rui asked for more than just money. He also tried every means to get more than 20,000 soldiers captured by Liu Dai into his name in disguise, saving him from trying to surrender.

This is a method that Guo Jia thought of. In fact, it is not troublesome to implement it. That is, let Liu Dai come forward and transfer all the soldiers captured by Yang Rui into the subordinates of Linyi County in the northern part of the East County, and then the county was transferred to Yang Rui's rule and then the problem was solved.

The Dongjun area north of Fan County was originally something that Yang Rui asked Liu Dai to give up, and the Linyi counties were located near Pingyuan County and had been designated by Yang Rui under his name. If Yang Rui was not enough to eat the other territory that Liu Dai set out was then coordinated and divided to Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao, and specific negotiations were needed at that time.

Guo Jia's method was unique and solved the problem of recruiting more than 20,000 prisoners of soldiers and soldiers at once. At the same time, it also provided Yang Rui with an idea to solve similar problems in the future. When encountering similar problems, it is also of reference value.

It’s just to provide ideas. You should know that anyone who is not forced into a blind spot will not cooperate like Liu Dai!

On the fourth condition, Yang Rui noticed that there were some 6th-level long-range archer soldiers among Liu Dai's troops, so he tentatively proposed to Liu Dai's request for 10,000 sets of 2-level to 6th-level long-range archer skill books, but the other party actually agreed.

Judging from the number of 6-level long-range bows in Liu Dai's hand, it was only a few thousand at most. Now, at Yang Rui's request, he even took out 10,000 sets of skill books. Yang Rui even doubted whether there would be more skill books in his hand in the distance bow.

However, Yang Rui was not worried that Liu Dai would create more long-range archers, because the fifth condition proposed by Yang Rui was to limit Liu Dai's military strength.

In order to limit Liu Dai so that he would not make a comeback, Yang Rui not only divided most of his territory, but also limited the number of his troops to exceed 150,000. In other words, except for Liu Dai's existing soldiers in Puyang City, he could basically not expand his troops!

Once Liu Dai violates the agreement and the number of soldiers exceeds the threshold of 150,000, Yang Rui can conquer him at any time. This is also the most important restriction of Yang Rui on Liu Dai.

Without expanding the number of soldiers, if Liu Dai wants to improve his own strength, he can only improve his level of the soldiers. However, according to the current situation, the strength that can be improved through this method will be very limited.

The last one is also a very important one that Guo Jia believes. As a prerequisite for accepting Liu Dai’s surrender, Liu Dai must win relevant titles for Yang Rui as the Han Dynasty. The minimum title standard proposed by Yang Rui is above the county marquis! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
