40 If you have any doubts, welcome to fight
After more than a week of careful efforts, Cao Yu was ready to compete with Yunzhou.
At this time, the original team of the steel factory from the imperial capital also arrived in Chuzhou.
Cao Yu quickly made arrangements for the people of the steel plant, first asking them to start the construction of the steel plant in the industrial park, and on the other hand, he sent corresponding personnel to the mine to mine.
At this time, Cao Yu quickly drove his troops out, began to build fortifications in the Hengling area, and began to prepare for war.
Three days later.
Yunzhou.
City Lord's Mansion.
The youngest son of the City Lord's Mansion trotted to the City Lord and whispered: "Father, I just heard something very strange."
"It's strange?"
"Yes, I heard that a steel factory in the imperial capital had been moved to Chuzhou."
"Iron and Steel Plant?" The city lord stood up: "Has Chuzhou explored iron ore?" Before the other party could answer, he said to himself: "It's unlikely, isn't there any iron ore in our area?"
Not long ago, Daxing Steel, the second largest city in Xizhou, is also the closest city to the southwest border. The wind somehow also blew into the nearby area.
So the three nearby city lords, Yunzhou, Chuzhou, and Longcheng, also started to do something and were ready to set up a steel factory by themselves.
So, the lord of Longcheng was the first to invite a geologist to explore. The geologist and his group wandered around Longcheng for a few times, and finally concluded that there was no iron ore with mining value in Longcheng.
The geologist held a professor certificate from Zhongzhou XX University and spoke professional terms in a very clear way, so everyone believed it.
Actually, that's a liar.
But this is the southwestern border, which one can penetrate it?
The guy carefully packaged it, and he also bought a book on geology and mineralogy, and learned a half-baked one. He remembered many professional terms, so everyone was fooled.
Later, the guy was invited to Chuzhou and Yunzhou respectively.
Therefore, up to now, everyone thinks that there is no iron ore on their territory. At this moment, the city lord of Yunzhou was very surprised when he heard that Chuzhou was going to run a steel factory.
"Father, the news should be true, because I saw that team a few days ago, with a lot of people and a lot of things. I thought it was an ordinary trading team, so I didn't care. Now, if you think about it carefully, it should be the people from the steel factory!"
"Has the iron ore really been discovered in Chuzhou?" The city lord frowned.
"Father, I think it's very likely! Because I heard another news."
"What news?"
"The vendors who have returned from Hengling these days said that Cao Yu's army built fortifications in the Hengling area and were preparing for combat. Moreover, south of Hengling, many people were also found digging things on the mountain."
Near Hengling?
The city lord who had just sat down stood up again.
At this moment, a subordinate hurried over: "Master, it's not good! Master, something big happened!"
The subordinate hurried in and handed over a document to the two of them.
The document states that from today on, Chuzhou decided to re-divider the boundaries between Chuzhou and Yunzhou. From today on, with Hengling as the boundary, all places south of Hengling belong to Chuzhou. Yunzhou is not allowed to enter for any reason, otherwise even if it invades, Chuzhou will definitely return the color!
If you have any doubts, welcome to fight!
After reading the file, the Yunzhou City Lord was so angry that he tore the file to pieces.
"It's too much to deceive others! It's too much to deceive others!"
His face turned blue and he couldn't breathe, and he almost fainted.
"Father, you can't just forget about this! He, Cao Yu, is not a good thing, and he dares to shit on our heads! Father, let me lead the army to fight them to the death!"
His youngest son was so angry that his teeth were chewing loudly.
It took a long time before the two of them calmed down.
"Father, we can't just let it go about this matter, otherwise we will become the biggest joke in the world!"
"You can't just let it go, but Cao Yu's troops are several times that of ours. Didn't you say last time that they had a team of about 4,000 people? We only have more than 600 people, and they have more than 4,000 people, so we can't win at all, let alone Cao Yu is quite a big deal!"
"So, father, we have to find foreign aid! Father, we ask Lanzhou for help."
"Lanzhou?" The city lord narrowed his eyes, and the light that shot out from his eyes was extremely complex.
Soon, the lord of Lanzhou City received a request for rescue.
"I want me to send troops to him? Does he really dare to think about it?" The city lord of Lanzhou City snorted coldly after hearing this.
"Master, just help him?" his wife begged.
The city lord of Lanzhou City sighed and then said, "You forgot how they treated us?"
“…”
After being silent for a while, the city lord of Lanzhou City said, "It's not impossible to ask me to send troops to him, but there must be conditions. One soldier is 1,000 yuan a day, and it's not enough to lose a cent! The consumption of weapons and ammunition is calculated separately!"
At around nine o'clock in the evening of that day, the city lord of Yunzhou City received a reply.
"What? A soldier costs one thousand a day? Ammunition consumption needs to be calculated separately. Damn, why is his heart darker than a crow?"
His youngest son took out a piece of draft paper and calculated: "One soldier is one thousand, ten soldiers are ten thousand, one hundred soldiers are one hundred thousand, five hundred soldiers are one hundred thousand, that is five hundred thousand. If you borrow three days, that is one million and a half million! Damn, it's really dark!"
After a while, the youngest son said, "Father, why don't you do this? We will reveal the news about the mines in Hengling. If he is willing to send troops, then we will be divided into three to seven pieces of the iron ore, and we will be divided into three to seven and three to three!"
The city lord of Yunzhou City heard this and nodded: "Three or seven minutes? Is that guy afraid he won't agree?"
"Father, they will definitely not agree. They may even ask for seven or three points, and they are seven and three of us, but even so, we must agree!
1. If they don’t spend a lot of money, they will not help us well. So if we agree, they will definitely do their best to send all the soldiers and bring out the best equipment. If Lanzhou can send 3,000 people, then we can defeat Cao Yu!
