Chapter 105 Fierce confrontation...humiliation!
"what……"
Baili Gongshu sneered, "Master Gu must have not woken up yet, he's still talking in his sleep!"
"It's just a trivial matter, but you want an entire state and 100,000 war horses from me! What a fantasy!"
Gu Jingzhi asked calmly, "Master Baili, do you think it's too expensive?"
"It's more than just expensive. In my opinion, this is tantamount to sucking the marrow out of the bones..." Baili Gongshu said indignantly.
The corner of Gu Jingzhi's mouth twitched.
motherfucker.
Is this how bone-crushing and marrow-sucking is used?
He muttered, "Master Baili, do you mean to refuse?"
"Didn't Lord Gu also say... Since this is a request, I naturally have the right to refuse!"
"Not bad!"
Gu Jingzhi nodded: "Then why don't you go back now, Master Baili, and let Nangong Shouyi prepare. You and I will choose a date in the next few days and have a decisive battle!"
"???"
Baili Gongshu looked at Gu Jingzhi in shock, muttering, "Crazy, you are really crazy..."
Gu Jingzhi stood up, looked down at Baili Gongshu and said, "Yunzhou has been blocked, and the surrounding prefectures have been handed over to our Great Xia. To put it bluntly, Yunzhou is an isolated city!"
"Yunzhou City is short of food and fodder. The elite cavalry of Beili, known as the elite, are starving to the point of exhaustion..."
"Given the absolute advantage I have, Lord Baili, why do you think I will still honor the previous agreement?"
"You're complaining to me now, what the hell were you doing before?"
"Isn't Nangong Shouyi a famous general? Doesn't he look down on our Great Xia? Then why don't you ask him to send troops to fight? I want to see whether this hungry general will continue his glorious life or fail here..."
Gu Jingzhi became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and before he knew it, he was pointing at Baili Gongshu's nose!
The sound passed through the tent and traveled far away!
Liu Sandao and others stood outside the tent, looking at each other in confusion.
Didn't we agree on a friendly negotiation? Why are we arguing so fiercely?
"Bastard!"
Baili Gongshu slammed the table and angrily said, "Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like that?"
"Your Excellency the Prime Minister has such great authority. What a pity! I, Gu Jingzhi, am a minister of Daxia, not your lackey of Beili!"
Gu Jingzhi refused to give in and angrily said, "That's all I have to say. Yuzhou and the 100,000 war horses must be taken, not a single hair. Otherwise, your Beili army and your so-called world-famous generals will sleep on this land forever!"
"Since you are a messenger, I will let you and your guards go back!"
"I want to see, without these 150,000 troops and the world-renowned general Nangong Shouyi, how will you, Beili, cope with the future situation?"
"Hmph! Lord Gu, don't forget that without me, Beili, you might not be able to resist the Liyue Kingdom until your Great Xia border defenses are firmly established!"
Baili Gongshu thought he had used a powerful weapon.
Who wants to...
Gu Jingzhi didn't care at all and said, "So what? Can Beili be destroyed in an instant? Can Daxia not organize a border defense line in a few years?"
"Master Baili, as the saying goes, this is a different time. This isn't the time for negotiations in the capital. No one can demand that I, Gu Jingzhi, choose a specific ally today!"
"I'm putting this on hold today. If you, Beili, want to form an alliance, you must follow Daxia's terms. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind letting Nangong Shouyi, the world-renowned general, and his 150,000-man army... rest here forever!"
Honestly speaking, if Daxia goes to war with Beili now, its chances of winning are as high as 80%, but that may not necessarily be a good thing after the war.
At least, without Beili blocking the way, Daxia would probably be plunged into war for the next ten years.
This is not in the interests of Daxia.
However, Gu Jingzhi bet that Beili no longer had the courage to do so.
really……
After Gu Jingzhi finished speaking, although Baili Gongshu was extremely angry and his fingers pointing at Gu Jingzhi were trembling, he did not utter another harsh word!
Baili Gongshu's eyes were red.
Gu Jingzhi looked proud.
Baili Gongshu had never thought that a mere fifth-rank official of Daxia would have such courage and dare to shout out in front of him that he dared to start a war.
He looked at Gu Jingzhi coldly, without a trace of emotion, and asked, "Master Gu, the alliance between the two countries has been broken. Aren't you worried about being punished by your Great Xia court? Aren't you afraid that your Great Xia will lose its credibility with the other countries in the world?"
"Humph!"
Gu Jingzhi said proudly, "That would be great! If I could use the blood of a mere scholar like me, Gu Jingzhi, to bring down thunder and awaken the consciousness of the people of Daxia, so that the men of Daxia would no longer be numb and vow to drink Beili blood and eat Beili flesh raw... With such people, Daxia would surely stand proudly at the top of the nation!"
"Daxia will be glorious and glorious in the future, and I, Gu Jingzhi, will be honored with supreme glory!"
Baili Gongshu: "..."
He has always known that there are scholars in Daxia who do not care about life or death, but only care about leaving their names in history.
If Gu Jingzhi, despite being victorious, were to be convicted and killed, he would surely be emulated by future generations of Daxia.
Such passion, such glory... is bound to inspire generation after generation of people in Daxia.
Having just one or two such people is terrifying enough. If the entire nation is like this... then there will definitely be no place for them, Beili, to stand in this world!
Seeing that he was lost in thought, Gu Jingzhi dropped another bombshell.
He only said, "What's more, the one who broke the agreement first... was Nangong Shouyi, the one hailed as a world-renowned general!"
"..."
call!
Baili Gongshu felt as if all his strength had been drained away.
Even if he wanted to argue something, it was obvious... a world-famous general who was crucial to Beili, and the lives of 150,000 soldiers were more important to Beili.
He stretched out his dry throat and said in an unusually hoarse voice: "Prepare the paperwork!"
finished,
His eyes closed.
In a pair of old eyes... two lines of tears overflowed.
When Gu Jingzhi saw this, he felt as if something hit his heart.
It’s not that he sympathized with Baili Gongshu, but he thought of a person, a complicated and inexplicable person... a person with both good and bad reputations!
Li Hongzhang!
At the end of that dynasty, important officials of a great power signed many humiliating treaties that were detrimental to the country.
presumably……
Living in that era was probably the greatest misfortune in his life!
Gu Jingzhi waved his hand, and a man came in from outside holding two documents. When Baili Gongshu saw them, he suddenly felt a little sad!
It turns out that they had already prepared everything!
Just wait for him to come!
With his slightly trembling hands, he picked up the pen from the tray and looked at the ink-black words on the document. He felt it was so dazzling!
Gritting his teeth, he signed the document tremblingly, then took out the seal he carried with him.
Looking at the seal symbolizing the Beili phase, he closed his eyes slightly.
After today, he will be the only prime minister since the founding of Beili who abandoned the territory of six states without any war.
Although none of these things were caused by him, but...
Will others take care of these?
He slammed the seal down hard...
