Chapter 29 Between life and death(2/2)
By then, the wife and the army would be lost.
Liu Yun pondered and shook his head, "I don't have any plans yet."
"How about it, how about you arrange it under the lord's account?"
Gai Xun said, took out another pot of wine and looked at it, and reinstalled it.
He cherished the wines that Liu Yun made with very rough means.
It's much more satisfying than what he used to drink.
Gai Xun's words suddenly woke Liu Yun up, "What do you mean is that you are not going to implement your power if you don't implement your power?"
"That's probably what it means." Gai Xun said in a daze.
Liu Yun's fingers hit the stone table and thought for a moment, "Well, then do that."
With a bitter smile, Liu Yun continued, "Actually, I don't care about this person. What I worry most is Ma Teng!"
Gai Xun did not understand what Liu Yun said, and suddenly said loudly: "My lord, be content. With me Gai Xun in one day, Ma Shoucheng would not have thought of crossing the Shouyang step. At the end of the day, he could issue a military order."
Liu Yunsuo waved his hand and said, "Old Gai misunderstood. What I am worried about is Ma Wenlu and Ma Tie! But it is almost the same thing. Ma Teng's son and daughter are now in my hands. Guess what Ma Teng will do?"
"This matter..." Gai Xun couldn't help but hesitate, "If this matter is handled properly or there is profitability, if it is handled poorly, it will be a war."
Liu Yunquan said indifferently: "Now we are in war with Ma Teng, what else is there to be scary? With these two hostages in hand, we actually have a greater initiative to Ma Teng. What I am worried about is how to use these two people to get the greatest benefits for us. The value of these two people is not small at all."
No matter how many children Ma Teng has, he will never ignore Ma Tie and Ma Wenlu.
He will definitely find a way, and he must be many times more anxious than Liu Yun.
Liu Yun remembered that it seemed that Ma Tie was born to be hostage. He seemed to have been in Cao Cao's hands for a while and later died.
"Lord, you may be able to force Ma Teng to fight Han Sui on the whole line. It will be the best for us to completely mess up the pot of water in Liangzhou." Gai Xun said in a divine manner, "And Ma Teng must agree. Although he and Han Sui were once fellow comrades, they are now incompatible with the fire. If there is no other situation, it will be a matter of time before the war begins."
When Gai Xun is serious and uses tricks, he is particularly cute.
But Liu Yun was still hesitating. Influenced by the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, his impression of Ma Teng was actually quite good.
He didn't want to break up completely. Even though the battle started and snatched someone else's place, he still had a chance to make a comeback. But if he really followed Gai Xun's suggestion, it would be difficult to talk to Ma Teng again in a friendly manner.
"Forget it, I'll wait a few days for this matter. I've sent a spy to Didao to see Ma Teng's reaction first." Liu Yun thought about it and said.
Gai Xun fiddled with the wine bottle and suggested: "My lord, you must be in trouble."
Liu Yun also knew this truth.
But what he is considering now is not just about Ma Tie, the two people. The top priority is how to use these two good chess pieces to maximize his own interests.
Benevolence or something is not something to consider at this time.
"Talk with Ma Teng!" Liu Yun suddenly looked up and said.
After thinking about it, it would be better to put this matter on the negotiating table and see Ma Teng’s conditions.
Gai Xun was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "The lord may need a clever aide! Moreover, he also needs to know how to maximize the lord's interests, territory, money, or become a spear in his hand."
"What do you think Mr. Gongsun?" Liu Yun asked.
Gai Xun stood up and faced Gongsun Lu who happened to walk into the garden. He smiled and said, "It's okay. Perhaps no one can understand better than Mr. Gongsun, so the benefits the lord is asking for are maximized, haha."
Gongsun Lu laughed and bowed to Gai Xun, "I've seen General Gai!"
Then he said to Liu Yun: "Lord, Wang Zhi has woken up."
"You guys talk about maximizing interests. I'll go and see Wang Zhi!" Liu Yun was overjoyed and said quickly.
Liu Yunfeng rushed into the inner courtyard in a hurry, leaving Gongsun Lu who looked confused.
“What is maximization of benefits?”
"What I guess is that the lord can get more things, what does Mr. Gongsun think?"
"I have never heard of it!"
"That's it, Mr. Gongsun and Xinxun's interpretation."
...
Liu Yun was in a hurry and almost ran into Wang Yuner who happened to come out.
"Oh, Yun'er, long time no see, are you awake?" Liu Yun asked anxiously.
Because of the first meeting, Wang Yuner blushed when she saw Liu Yun many times after that.
She nodded gently and said in a thin voice like a mosquito, "I just woke up."
"I'll go and see, stand here and don't leave, wait for me! Then again, Yun'er, what's wrong with you? I seem to have been hiding from me recently, and I'm afraid that I will eat you, why are you?" Liu Yun looked at Wang Yun'er who didn't dare to look up at him, and specifically reminded him.
This girl has been seen in the past six months and can count the number of times Liu Yun has seen her.
The shyness on Wang Yuner's face instantly seemed to be as thick as the sunset that could not be melted. She twisted the corner of her clothes and nodded gently.
Liu Yun walked into the room filled with medicine with satisfaction. Wang Zhi lay on the couch like a zombie.
Seeing Liu Yun come in, Wang Zhi wanted to get up to greet him, but Liu Yun raised his hand and held it down.
"You can't move, so how do you get so many vain gifts? How do you feel now? Is it better?" Liu Yun asked.
Wang Zhi pulled a reluctant smile on his lips and said, "It's been much better if you're in trouble. Yun'er told me just now that I've been lying for two days, but I really shocked me. I was sleeping very energetic. Now I feel that I can go to the battlefield and kill the enemy."
"You should be more at ease and recover from your injuries. Let me tell you some good news. We won a great victory and successfully won Shouyang, Xiangwu and the county in Xiangwu!" Liu Yun said with a smile.
Liu Yun felt that Wang Zhi should be the first to know about this news.
But he became the latest person to know.
The excited smile on Wang Zhi's face just rose, but suddenly became dimmed again.
"It's a pity... those more than two thousand brothers, they died unjustly, please punish the lord."
Liu Yun patted Wang Zhi on the shoulder and said, "It's not your fault for this, I blame me. You were originally pretending to attack Yuzhong, but I suddenly ordered to run for hundreds of miles and attack Xiangwu! The soldiers were exhausted and were neglected to guard at night, which caused trouble. I blame me!"
This battle caused such tragic losses.
After thinking about it carefully, Liu Yun could only blame him.
Wang Zhi's troops attacked Yuzhong for two days, and then rushed to attack Xiangwu again. The horses were probably exhausted, let alone people.
Liu Yun lost more than 2,000 people in one battle, and he felt miserable when he thought about it.
That was more than two thousand lives, although Liu Yun had sent Gongsun Lu to send money and food to the families of these soldiers in the past two days.
But these soldiers can never come back.
The general was incompetent and exhausted thousands of troops. This was why Liu Yun tried every means to dig up Gai Xun.
"Lord..." Wang Zhi choked and called down, but couldn't say anything.
Liu Yun comforted and said, "Recover your wounds well, and I will wait for your mighty spirit to show again!"
Wang Zhi sat up and bent down at Liu Yun with a solemn expression.
Everything is indescribable.
After explaining to the doctor, Liu Yun walked out of the room.
Standing in the courtyard and feeling the warm sunshine, Liu Yun felt an indescribable depression.
Nowadays, it is no longer a small fight on Mount Izumo.
At that time, his troops of less than a thousand people were now tens of thousands.
The territory has expanded several times in just a short period of time.
"Lord, you have to ask the maid to be here, but if you have something to do, you have to give me instructions?"
