"Then Brother Chu, how are you going to help us cross the river? You won't let us fight a battle across the river!

The Grand Canal connects the Yellow River and Nanyang Lake. Although the water flow is not fast, it is very deep. If there are troops stationed on the other side of the river, forcibly crossing the river will definitely pay a huge price.

Brother Chu, don’t you also hope that we can destroy the Dashi Kingdom earlier and save you from the sea of ​​misery?

In this case, shouldn't you find a way to help us?

After all, if we suffer heavy losses when crossing the river, the entire subsequent plan will be greatly affected.

Brother Chu, what do you think? "

Sun Junbo was not moved by Chu Tianba's neutral rhetoric, and still insisted on letting Chu Tianba help them cross the Grand Canal.

The reason why they tried so hard to win over Chu Tianba was not only because Chu Tianba had a strong monk army under his command, but also because they wanted to cross the Grand Canal safely.

The Grand Canal is wide and deep. It is connected with Nanyang Lake, Dushan Lake, Shaoyang Lake and Weishan Lake. It directly divides Shandong into east and west parts. It is the only natural barrier in Shandong besides Mount Tai.

Originally, there was a bridge connecting the east and west banks of the Grand Canal. As long as that bridge was occupied, the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces could march straight in.

However, before the cavalry regiment of the Northern Expedition Alliance arrived there, the orc bridge guarding troops who got the news had already taken the first step to close the west section of the bridge.

Originally, according to ancient bridge technology, once a bridge was built, it was basically fixed. If you wanted to prevent the enemy from crossing the bridge, you would either place defenders on the bridge or directly demolish the bridge.

But the players are from modern times, and their knowledge and experience far exceed those of the ancients.

In modern times, many bridges are detachable, and the lifting and lowering of a certain section of the bridge can even be manually controlled by remote control.

The player force that first occupied the Yellow River Corridor was a player force. In order to fully control the initiative of crossing the river, that player force spent a lot of money to invite a bridge expert to design a bridge for them in the game that could artificially control the connection and disconnection. bridge.

Although there was a lack of modern technology and craftsmanship in ancient times and many things were impossible to achieve, there are many materials in the game that are not available in reality, so it is not completely impossible to design such a bridge.

After repeated exploration and practice, the bridge expert finally designed a retractable suspension bridge driven by human power.

After the bridge piers were laid in the river, the eastern two-thirds of the entire bridge was built normally, while the western third was built in a suspension bridge mode.

As long as the defenders on the east bank turn the pulleys and tighten the iron cables, the one-third section of the bridge on the west bank that is built in the form of a suspension bridge will slowly be pulled into the air.

In order to facilitate pulling, the entire western third of the bridge is connected with a kind of strong iron wood in the game, which is both light and strong.

The player forces that originally spent a lot of effort to build this bridge wanted to use this bridge to build the Taishan area into a logistics base that can be attacked and retreated.

It's a pity that people are not as good as God. After the strong rise of the Beast Empire, everything they did in the early stage became a wedding dress for the Beast Empire.

Although the Northern Expedition Alliance caught the Dashi Kingdom by surprise, the cavalry regiment they sent failed to seize control of the bridge, which is why they needed Chu Tianba's help so much at this time.

As long as Chu Tianba nods, their army on the west bank of the Grand Canal can immediately cross the river.

As for whether Chu Tianba would offend Ning Yuan for helping them,

That's what they want.

The earlier Chu Tianba joins their camp, the more favorable the situation will be for them. However, this kind of thing cannot be done in a hurry, so Sun Junbo cannot force Chu Tianba too much.

Looking at Sun Junbo with an expectant look on his face, Chu Tianba smiled slightly and said: "Brother Sun, people in the Ming Dynasty don't speak secretly. Since everyone is probably one of our own in the future, then I can say whatever I want. No more." Tucked and hidden.

Brother Sun must also know that the Dashi Kingdom also sent an envoy to see me! "

"Well, I saw that big guy when I came here." Sun Junbo nodded.

"Then you should have guessed why the other party came to me, right?" Chu Tianba guided him step by step.

"What else can we do? I just want to join forces with you, Brother Chu, and then fight together against our Northern Expedition Alliance!" Sun Junbo curled his lips disdainfully.

"If it were you, Brother Sun, would you reject him outright?" Chu Tianba continued to ask.

"No, I should be like you, Brother Chu. I will remain neutral and will not be directly involved." Sun Junbo thought for a moment and replied.

"Brother Sun, to be honest, the big guy you saw is Xiong Xiaoguang, Xiong Dashi's nephew. The purpose of Xiong Xiaoguang's coming to see me is to ask me to join forces with his uncle to deal with you.

I rejected Xiong Xiaoguang's request without even thinking about it.

However, although I did not agree to Xiong Dashi's request, I promised them that I would remain neutral between you and not take sides.

That Xiong Xiaoguang gave me a lot of crackling analysis, thinking that I occupied the most important strategic location here and could not remain neutral at all.

Faced with Xiong Xiaoguang's pressing steps, of course I couldn't back down.

So I said that I would withdraw all the troops to the north of the Daqing River and give up the strategic locations you consider.

As for which side shall I give these strategic locations to you?

This requires both of you to compete. "

When he mentioned the word competition, Chu Tianba made a money gesture toward Sun Junbo.

Seeing that Sun Junbo's expression was very ugly after seeing his gesture, Chu Tianba suddenly changed the topic and continued: "Of course, with my relationship with you, Brother Sun, it is impossible for me to cheat your Northern Expedition Alliance money.

My real purpose is to severely punish Xiong Dashi, in order to avenge the siege for so many years.

Brother Sun, I hope you can help me put on a show in front of Xiong Xiaoguang and ask them to pay a high price to buy the land I gave up.

In return, I will secretly send someone to help you cross the river.

I wonder if Brother Sun would like the beauty of adulthood? "

After finishing speaking, Chu Tianba looked at Sun Junbo expectantly, hoping to get a positive answer from the other party.

After staring into Chu Tianba's eyes for a long time, Sun Junbo asked sternly: "Brother Chu, it is convenient for others and for my own convenience. I am very willing to have the beauty of adulthood.

But, you sold all the land to the Dashi Kingdom, so how can we cross the river? "

"Brother Sun, what is the most famous thing about Nanyang Lake?" Chu Tianba asked with a smile.

"have no idea?"

After Sun Junbo thought for a moment, he shook his head.

"Hairy crabs, green shrimps and Pengze crucian carp!"

Chu Tianba looked at Sun Junbo with a strange expression.

"Brother Chu, I only know Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs, and I only eat Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs. I have never heard of Nanyang Lake hairy crabs."

Sun Junbo scratched the back of his head in embarrassment as Chu Tianba's piercing eyes made him feel a little embarrassed.

"Yangcheng Lake is such a big place, how many hairy crabs can be produced? I guess all you eat are bathing crabs.

If there are some conscientious merchants, they will buy the hairy crabs raised in Taihu Lake, Nanyang Lake, and Hongze Lake. They will take a bath in Yangcheng Lake and then sell them to you.

In fact, the hairy crabs cultured in these big lakes taste good, and you won’t suffer too much if you buy them. I’m afraid I’m afraid of the bathing crabs cultured in ponds or the fake ones that don’t even bother to take a bath.

let me tell you.... "

"Brother Chu, if you like eating hairy crabs, I can drive to pick you up after the game and go directly to Yangcheng Lake to eat the most authentic ones. Let's get back to business and discuss how you want to help us cross the river!"

As soon as he mentioned eating, Chu Tianba's eyes started to light up and he kept talking endlessly. Sun Junbo immediately interrupted him.

"I'm sorry, I'm just good at this, making Brother Sun laugh, hahaha."

Knowing that he was off topic, Chu Tianba immediately apologized to Sun Junbo with a smile.

"Brother Sun, there is Nanyang Town on Nanyang Lake, which is also my territory now. I have stationed five thousand monk soldiers in Nanyang Town.

I will sell Jining, Wenshang and other places to the Dashi Kingdom at a high price, but I will leave Nanyang Town to you, Brother Sun.

Didn’t President Ye get a lot of yin-yang rainbow trees last time?

When the time comes, I will send people to meet you on the other side of the lake and cover you in planting trees there.

After the Yin-Yang Rainbow Bridge is formed, your army can come directly along the Yin-Yang Rainbow Bridge.

How about it, Brother Sun, is this plan of mine still acceptable to you? "

Chu Tianba knew that the Northern Expedition Alliance was not that easy to fool, so after knocking off the opponent, he was ready to concentrate on killing the fat sheep of the Dashi Kingdom.

Hearing Chu Tianba mention the Yin Yang Rainbow Tree, Sun Junbo did not answer. He stood up and took out a map from his backpack, found the location of Nanyang Town on the map, and then watched it quietly.

Seeing Sun Junbo checking the map alone, Chu Tianba was not in a hurry. He picked up the wine glass and started drinking by himself.

About ten minutes later, Sun Junbo put away the map and returned to the stone bench. After drinking the wine glass in front of him, Sun Junbo looked at Chu Tianba and asked:

"Brother Chu, there are two towns opposite Nanyang Town. You sold the entire Jining area to the Dashi Kingdom. How can you guarantee us that the Dashi Kingdom will not station troops opposite Nanyang Town?

If the defenses of the Oishi Kingdom were so lax that we could just plant Yin-Yang Rainbow Trees on the other side of the river, then I wouldn't be sitting here talking to you so much now.

Brother Chu, we still have the Yin Yang Rainbow Tree, but you must come up with a convincing reason, otherwise we will not take this risk with you. "

After carefully examining the map, Sun Junbo was not very satisfied with the plan proposed by Chu Tianba.

Looking at Sun Junbo with a serious face, Chu Tianba said with a smile: "Brother Sun, look carefully at the terrain on the northeastern coast of Nanyang Town.

It is adjacent to Dushan Lake to the west and south, and to the east of Mount Tai. There is only one entrance to the north.

It not only guards the waterway from Nanyang Town to the east bank of Dushan Lake, but also blocks the ground transportation between Tengzhou and Jining.

Although I didn't build any big cities there, I still built several small passes on key transportation routes.

As long as I don't hand over those passes to the Dashi Kingdom, the orcs from the Dashi Kingdom will not be able to enter the corner of the two towns adjacent to Dushan Lake.

To show my sincerity, I can hand over several passes near Nanyang Town and Liangcheng Town to your care on the day Xiong Xiaoguang returns.

I believe that with those few passes for defense, it will be enough time for you to buy the Yin Yang Rainbow Tree to mature! "

"Is this true?"

Sun Junbo's eyes immediately lit up when he heard that Chu Tianba wanted to directly hand over Nanyang Town and several passes to his side.

"It's more real than real gold, but I have one condition that I hope Brother Sun can agree to first." Chu Tianba replied with a smile.

"Brother Chu, please speak." When Sun Junbo heard that there was a condition, his heart immediately skipped a beat.

Seeing Sun Junbo's expression change, Chu Tianba immediately smiled and said: "Brother Sun, don't be nervous. I don't want to put forward any harsh conditions. I only ask that the army you send to hand over must be a player army, and then every player Everyone must shave their heads and wear cassocks.

Only in this way will Xiong Dashi not have any doubts.

When Xiong Dashi's army is blocked from entering there, I can also refute it by saying that the monk soldiers there were secretly instigated by you to rebel, and there is nothing I can do about it.

Brother Sun, if you can agree to my terms, then the day Xiong Xiaoguang returns will be the time when your Northern Expedition Alliance gets the two towns and Nanyang Town.

How about it? Is my sincerity enough? "

"Brother Chu, your plan is indeed good. It can not only disperse the forces of the Dashi Kingdom, but also further weaken their national power.

But in such a short time, where do you want me to get so many cassocks?

Brother Chu, please help others to the end. You can also help me solve the cassock matter!

Little brother, I won’t take your cassock for nothing. How about I buy it from you, Brother Chu, at double the price for each cassock? "

When Chu Tianba said that he wanted players from the Northern Expedition Alliance to disguise themselves as flower monks and trade with his monk soldiers, Sun Junbo's doubts were immediately reduced by more than half.

He believed that the reason why Chu Tianba put so much thought into it was mainly because he wanted to protect himself wisely, avoid offending both sides, and wait for the price.

The big bald donkey in front of him was very cunning. He wanted to get the generous rewards from the Northern Expedition Alliance, but he didn't dare to offend Ning Yuan in advance.

Until now, the flower monk has left himself multiple escape routes. Whether the Dashi Kingdom wins the final victory or the Northern Expedition Alliance becomes the final winner, he can surrender to the other party as a meritorious minister after the final result is reached. .

MD, it is considered a skill for a wallflower to become like Chu Tianba.

"No problem, I will have people transport all the cassocks in the warehouse to Nanyang Town for you soon." Chu Tianba nodded happily.

"Okay, Brother Chu, it will take a few days for that guy Xiong Xiaoguang to return. I will go back now and let our President Lu make preparations. I will be back the day after tomorrow at the latest, so let's see you the day after tomorrow!"

Everything was settled, and Sun Junbo immediately stood up and left.

"See you the day after tomorrow, have a nice trip." Chu Tianba smiled and waved to Sun Junbo.

"Farewell!"

After bowing his hand to Chu Tianba, Sun Junbo turned around and left without any hesitation.
