Chapter 480: 239: Post-War Transactions_3

Having caused such a huge loss to the Zhou People, it would be ridiculous if they didn’t hate him.

There may be a foundation for cooperation, but beyond that, deep-rooted hatred does not affect it.

Anyway, Lu Yuan was certain that if there was a chance, Zhou Country would not mind eliminating him and settling all previous hatreds.

So while others may not care about their own lives, Lu Yuan, who carries many enemies, can’t afford to be reckless.

Therefore, he didn’t bother with the Qingyuan tea, and when he saw He Basheng finished drinking the tea, he directly asked, “If General He has something to ask this king to come, please speak directly. My relationship with you is mediocre, and I don’t have much energy to chat with you here.”

“Why is the king in such a hurry?”

He Basheng shook his head at Lu Yuan’s not-so-polite words, but since the other party had said so, he had no choice but to say, “This time our two countries are fighting, and the king has launched two surprise attacks, defeating our country successively.

Now we even occupy seven prefectures including Xiangyang and Hanzhong, especially Nanzheng, which is quite a harvest.

However, although the harvest is great, as far as I know, in Changsha, there are only the King and the Queen who have not yet married that are Inborn Grandmasters.”

Hearing this, Lu Yuan frowned, “So what? Even with only two Inborn Grandmasters, with the power of my Changsha State, we can still hold these seven prefectures.”

He Basheng smiled, “The king must not deceive me. I know that the king has an agreement with Qiao Kangquan’s Han State to exchange Hanzhong for the land of Xichuan.

So when the king says that Changsha will defend these seven prefectures, it’s actually just defending three prefectures of Xiangyang.”

Seeing that He Basheng has pierced the secret agreement between himself and Qiao Kangquan and others with just one sentence, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but be shocked.

About the territorial exchange, although it is common knowledge among the high-ranking members of the United Army, it is not known to those below.

Now that He Basheng was able to hear about this, and even knew the newly decided title for Qiao Kangquan by the Yue State court, the penetration of the other party into the high ranks of Yue State was truly shocking.

However, although he was somewhat surprised, Lu Yuan had already severed ties with the court of Yue State, and it didn’t concern him even if the other party was infiltrated like a sieve.

So at this moment, he calmly said, “So what? If General He already knows about the territory exchange between me and the Han State, then he should be clear that with my power, defending three prefectures of Xiangyang Prefecture is much easier than before.”

He Basheng laughed, “I know this is the reason. The reason why I mentioned it at this time is that I actually have a deal I want to make with the king.”

Saying this, General He paused for a moment, then stared at Lu Yuan with scorching eyes, passionately saying, “Since the king can exchange territory with Qiao Kangquan, now that our two countries have ceased fighting and are no longer enemies,

Why can’t we exchange territory with my country?

My country is willing to exchange Xiangyang Prefecture for the king’s Nanzheng Prefecture. We will use Xiangyang City to exchange for Nanzheng city, exchanging county cities, what does the king think?”

“Exchange Xiangyang City for Nanzheng City?” Lu Yuan’s expression couldn’t help but change when he heard this condition.

“Yes, exchange Xiangyang City for Nanzheng City.”

He Basheng nodded, “Since the king has decided to give up the territory of Hanzhong, then exchanging Nanzheng City with Qiao Kangquan will only bring a broken, poor prefecture in Xichuan in return for the rich land of Nanzheng.”

But Nanzheng is the capital of Hanzhong, with a population of 100,000, and a famous city in the world.

Changing places like this for a small and remote prefecture would be a loss no matter how you look at it.

However, if you exchange Nanzheng City for Xiangyang City, Xiangyang is also a well-known city in the world, and it is even richer than Nanzheng.

In this exchange, the king will definitely not lose.

What’s rare is that with Xiangyang City as a support, the three prefectures of Fangling, Guining, and Xicheng in Xiangyang that the king occupies would have a shield to rely on.

By then, with Xiangyang City as the core, you can firmly occupy the land of Xiangyang Prefecture’s four prefectures.

Having such benefits, isn’t it better than using Nanzheng Prefecture to exchange for a poor and broken prefecture in Xichuan?

This time we came with sincerity, so we offered such conditions. Is the king willing to exchange?”

Having finished presenting these benefits and conditions, He Basheng did not continue, but stared at Lu Yuan with shining eyes, waiting for his response.

Being stared at by his eyes, Lu Yuan’s thoughts couldn’t help but fly chaotically for a while.

Zhou Country wanted to use Xiangyang Prefecture to exchange for his Nanzheng Prefecture.

Such a thing, to be honest, he hadn’t thought about it before and wasn’t prepared for it.

So at this moment, hearing it, he was really a bit flustered.

But after thinking about it carefully, the more he thought about it, the more benefits he saw in it.

He Basheng was right, if he exchanged Nanzheng Prefecture with Qiao Kangquan for the territory of Xichuan, he would only get a poor border prefecture at most, which would be a huge loss.

But if he exchanged it with Zhou Country for Xiangyang Prefecture, not only would he still have a county city in his hands, but also his territory in Xiangyang Prefecture would no longer be like a duckweed without support as before.

With Xiangyang City in place, just station 100,000 troops there and let an Inborn Grandmaster lead them, then even if Yue Country sends out two Inborn Grandmasters and 200,000 troops to attack, they won’t be able to take the city.

And the same thing couldn’t be done if there were only three prefectures in the west of Xiangyang.

Only relying on a world-famous city like Xiangyang can this be achieved.

With Xiangyang City, he can instantly stabilize the land of the four prefectures in Xiangyang.

Even with the rich population of Xiangyang Prefecture, the population would not decrease but might even increase.

No matter how you look at it, there are many benefits.

The only problem is that Qiao Kangquan might miss out on a county city as a result.

His title of King of Han might lose its luster and become unworthy of the name because of the lack of Nanzheng City.

But…

What does that have to do with me?

He’s just someone the court uses to restrain and even backstab me. I’m giving him face by calling him a king.

Without giving him face, what is he?

Lu Yuan couldn’t possibly give up the benefits he already had for such a person.

So after careful consideration, he confirmed that there was no loss in this transaction, and that there would be a big gain.

He showed a brilliant smile on his face and gladly said in response to He Basheng’s proposal, “Since your country has such sincerity, I have no reason to refuse. I agree to the exchange of the two cities.”

Hearing this, He Basheng’s smile became even brighter.

With this, the matter of exchanging territory between Zhou and Changsha countries was settled.
