Datang: Let you supervise the country and become an emperor through the ages

Chapter 902 Compensation
After a while, everyone came to the top of the tower.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Yu and his soldiers had been waiting under the tower for a long time.

Seeing Li Fu leading his men down from the top of the tower, Zhao Yu's eyes fell on them immediately, and then strode forward, clasped his hands and said with a smile:

"Master Li Fuli, I have admired your name for a long time."

Hearing Zhao Yu's words, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Fu's mouth, and he said:
"It turns out to be an envoy from the State of Zhao. I thought he was some kind of barbaric enemy! Now that the envoy from the State of Zhao is here, let's please enter the city!"

While speaking, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.

Zhao Yu nodded with a smile, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li Fu Li!"

"You're welcome." Li Fu said with a smile.

The two of them walked into the city tower one after the other, and Li Fu's subordinates followed behind them, followed Li Fu's footsteps, walked in, and then stood behind Li Fu.

Li Fu led the people to a small courtyard, and then asked them to sit down, and then served tea.

"Envoy from the State of Zhao, do you have any business with me today?" Li Fu asked.

"I'm here today to ask you for help."

Li Fu nodded and said:

"The envoy of the State of Zhao wants to ask us for help. This is the best thing. If there is anything that needs my help, just tell me directly! As long as I, Li Fu, can do it, I will definitely not refuse."

"It's very simple." Zhao Yu said with a smile.

Seeing Zhao Yu's smiling expression, Li Fu felt an ominous premonition in his heart, and asked quickly:
"Master Zhao, since we have sat down calmly, just say what you have to say, and we will do our best to help you."

Zhao Yu smiled slightly and said, "It's very simple, I hope you don't hurt our soldiers, they are just following orders."

"According to orders?"

Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Li Fu was stunned for a moment, and he asked with some doubts: "Envoy of the State of Zhao, what is going on? Since you have asked me for something, why did you attack our Chang'an City?"

"Hehe, to be honest, I really have something to ask of you this time." Zhao Yu said with a smile.

"The envoy of the State of Zhao needs our help, even if it is something we can do, we will definitely not refuse."

"Our country of Zhao has been invaded by the enemy during this period of time, and our troops have been lost. Moreover, these invading enemies are very cunning."

"After they invaded our city, they hid back and hid in the territory of Datang. We can't do anything to them at all."

"I think, if the Tang army can help us and wipe them out in one fell swoop, then we won't suffer so many losses, will we?" Zhao Yu said with a smile.

"Envoy Zhao, your request is reasonable, but your attack on Chang'an City is a little too much."

"Therefore, we decided that we must take measures against you and make you pay a painful price in order to appease our anger!" Li Fu said through gritted teeth.

After listening to Li Fu's words, Zhao Yu frowned slightly, and said, "Master Li Fu, please raise your hand in this matter."

"We also know that you have suffered heavy losses this time, but we sincerely apologize to you. Not only that, we are willing to offer 10 taels of gold as compensation!"

Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Li Fu couldn't help laughing, and said, "10 taels of gold? I think Zhao Guo's envoy is really good at joking. 10 taels of gold is a huge sum."

"But, do you think you can calm down my anger with this 10 taels of gold?"

"I also think it's unlikely. However, with Master Li Fu's help, I don't think this matter will be difficult."

"Lord Li Fu, do you think this 10 taels of gold is worth our exchange for our safety?" Zhao Yu continued to ask.

Li Fu thought for a while, then shook his head, and said, "It's not worth it. We have suffered heavy losses now, and we don't want to entangle with you any longer. If we continue to entangle, we will lose even more."

Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Li Fu, remained silent for a while, and said, "How about this, we will give you 30 taels of gold, and our battle will end here, how about it?"

Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Li Fu's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect that Zhao Yu's tone would be so loud, and he would give him 30 taels of gold with just one mouth.

This is a huge sum of 300 million taels of gold, even in the entire Tang Dynasty, it is a huge fortune.

Zhao Yu actually said such words, it can be seen that his tone is not comparable to that of Li Fu.

"Impossible! Envoy of the State of Zhao, you are thinking too simply. Our losses have been so heavy, and you actually want to use 30 taels of gold in exchange. This is not a way of exchange at all!"

Li Fu justly rejected Zhao Yu.

"Master Li Fu, I think you should understand that if you continue to entangle, I am afraid that we will both lose in the end."

"It's hard to say who will win and who loses by then, so I think it's better for you to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise."

"When we launch another attack, you will definitely suffer more losses. By then, your losses will be even greater!" Zhao Yuyu comforted him earnestly.

Li Fu sneered disdainfully and said, "Hmph, I think you're just scaremongering, but I want to see how you attack us!"

"You are only more than 5000 people, and you want to break through our city, it is wishful thinking!"

"Hahaha!" Hearing Li Fu's words, Zhao Yu suddenly burst into laughter, the laughter was full of contempt, as if mocking his stupidity.

"What are you laughing at? Am I wrong?"

"Of course not!" Zhao Yu sneered.

"Oh?"

"Do you think, with your current strength, you can stop my attack?"

"Don't think I'm ignorant. Your current soldiers not only suffered heavy casualties, but were also captured. Do you think you can win this battle?"

"You..." Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Li Fu trembled with anger and said angrily.

"That's right, Master Li Fu, I'm right. My men have already killed all your soldiers and captured them all. Your soldiers have no chance to resist at all."

"Now, how much combat power do you think your soldiers have? There are less than 45 of you, and [-] reinforcements behind me. Do you think you have any chance of winning?"
