112, I have never seen such a brazen person!
"But Wen Hou..."
Liu Bei wanted to say it again, but Ouyang Jing waved his hand: "This matter is decided! This winter's first snow seems to have to go down for several days. I am the most reasonable person. It is difficult to travel on snowy days. It will be more difficult for you to raise food and grass than usual, so I will give you ten days. Ten days later, I will see 30,000 stones of corn. Otherwise..."
He sighed and shook his head with heartache: "My poor nephew and nieces, I'm afraid one or two of them will starve to death!"
Liu Bei looked at his heartbroken expression, and felt that he had never seen such a shameless person before. Well, this is inappropriate. Didn’t Lu Bu’s shamelessness become famous in the world? Otherwise, how could he have repeatedly committed treason and ungrateful things?
"I am a man with thick skin that can block the arrow!"
Liu Bei took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to smash the teacup on his face, and smiled bitterly: "Wen Hou, in ten days, I have to raise 30,000 stones of corn and hide it from Cao Cao. This is really... it's impossible! If only 20,000 stones, I can still think of a way."
"Then let's have 20,000 shi." Ouyang Jing smiled tolerantly: "I am the most reasonable person. If you are in a difficult situation, you will lose 10,000 shi, which is only 20,000 shi! Well, this matter is determined in one sentence. In ten days, 20,000 shi of corn must not be wrong!"
He called for 30,000 yuan, and it was originally a lion's mouth. He was already satisfied with the ability to knock 20,000 stones of corn. One stone of corn made in Han was about fifteen kilograms. Twenty thousand stones, which was 300,000 kilograms, and a total of 300 tons.
Although it is only enough for 10,000 people to eat for a month, it is also enough to effectively alleviate the dilemma of food shortage in Xia Pi.
With the production and transportation capacity of this era, 300 tons of corn were raised in just ten days, only a great god like the Mi family in Donghai could do it.
Liu Bei looked at Ouyang Jing's expression and knew that 20,000 shi was his bottom line, so he would never allow him to bargain. He could only smile bitterly and sigh: "Well, I will give up this face and ask my uncle for 20,000 shi of corn."
Ouyang Jing nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "For the Mi family in Donghai, only 20,000 stones of corn, it is not worth mentioning. With these 20,000 stones of corn, I can not only treat my four nephews and nieces well, but also give my soldiers a few meals, nourish enough strength, and kill Cao Zhe! "
"The majesty of killing Cao's thief?" Liu Bei's eyelids jumped slightly and asked tentatively: "Does...Wen Hou still want to go out of the city to fight back?"
"Why can't you fight back?" Ouyang Jing stared at Liu Bei's eyes and smiled: "The strongest person under my command is the cavalry. But in this battle to defend the city, the cavalry has no way to play. To win a battle, you must take the initiative to go out of the city to fight back. Besides... As long as Xuande is willing to help me, not to mention counterattack, it is not impossible to defeat Cao Cao."
"Haha." Liu Bei chuckled twice, avoided Ouyang Jing's gaze, and said, "Wen Hou is so respectful to Bei. Under Liu Bei's command, the generals are only Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and the counselors are only Jian Yong and Sun Qian, with less than ten thousand soldiers and only a thousand cavalry. Our army is far inferior to that of Marquis Wen, so how dare you fight against Cao?"
Ouyang Jing smiled and said, "Xuande, you are too modest. Although you have few troops, you are all elite. Although you have few generals, you are all enemies of thousands of people. Even the younger generations in your family are all famous generals. As long as you and I can cooperate wholeheartedly and cooperate inside and outside, how can you not defeat Cao Cao?"
Liu Bei smiled without saying a word, just shook his head.
Ouyang Jing said in a deep voice: "Do Xuande cannot trust me?"
"Haha." Liu Bei chuckled twice, lowered his eyelids, and looked at the teacup in his hand with concentration, thinking who dared to believe you?
Ding Yuanxin, you have been killed by you.
Dong Zhuo believes in you, and you killed you again.
I used to believe in you, but you snatched the foundation from you.
Your reputation as a traitor for Lu Wenhou is well-known. If I believe in you once, wouldn’t I be stupid to the end and be stupid?
Ouyang Jing knew what he was thinking when he saw Liu Bei's expression.
But what can he do? He is helpless! Who says he is the reputation of his father-in-law... Well, the dead are the most important, so I won't complain.
"Xuande..."
Ouyang Jing leaned forward, looked at Liu Bei with a sincere expression, and said heart-warmingly: "Even if I, Lu Bu, cannot be trusted, then Cao Cao is trustworthy? You came here to meet me in person today, and I think you know it well - Cao Cao has dealt with me, and the next one is probably your turn.
"If Cao Cao cleans up all the opponents in the world, will he still keep the Emperor of Han? Will the world be the Han Dynasty and the Liu family?"
Although Cao Cao never usurped the throne in his life, he paved the way for his son to usurp the throne!
Besides, Liu Bei couldn't know about it before, how could he know if Cao Cao would usurpate?
Therefore, Liu Bei deeply agreed with Ouyang Jing's remarks. It was just...
"Wen Hou, Cao Cao is indeed not a pure minister, but at least he is now offering to the emperor and the Han court. And you, Marquis Wen..."
Liu Bei shook his head, looked directly at Ouyang Jing, and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Shu established his own pseudo-emperor, and was the number one rebel in the world. Wen Hou, you have formed an alliance with Yuan Shu and want to marry him... I am a royal family of the Han Dynasty, and I am ordered to fight against rebels. How can I cooperate with you to attack Cao Cao, the great Han Sikong? If I do this, will I become a rebel?"
"I did something wrong with forming an alliance with Yuan Shu before. I was also not thinking about the marriage."
Ouyang Jing simply admitted his mistake: "I know my mistake, the alliance, and the engagement will not continue. Moreover, if I can defeat Cao Cao this time, I will definitely send troops to attack Shouchun and attack the rebel Yuan Shu. With Yuan Shu's head, I will show my loyalty and righteousness to the Han Dynasty."
Liu Bei shook his head amused and said bluntly: "Mr. Wen, please forgive me for your reputation, with Wen Hou, your reputation... You said you attack Shouchun and attack Yuan Shu, how dare you believe this?"
Ouyang Jing once again felt helpless. The hole dug by Lu Bu's cheap father-in-law was really hard to fill.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Xuande, even if you don't believe that I will launch an army to attack Yuan Shu after I escape, but... at least in dealing with Cao Cao, you should believe me.
"I am now trapped in an isolated city, with no reinforcements outside, and I am not able to provide food and supplies. If I don't try to rescue the siege, I will only die. For my life and life, and for my subordinates, I must defeat Cao Cao. In this case, if I break my trust in you in the joint attack on Cao, wouldn't I dig my own grave?"
Liu Bei whispered: "Mr. Wen, I believe that you will work sincerely with me in the attack on Cao. But... what I am concerned about is the descendant of the attack on Cao!"
"After attacking Cao?"
"No," Liu Bei looked at Ouyang Jing with a bright look: "If you and my family united and really defeated Cao Cao and drove him out of Xuzhou, how should you and my family get along with each other? Will you just expel Cao Cao and you, Marquis Wen, flatten me, Liu Bei in one fell swoop?"
