The world's first county magistrate

Chapter 256 Bet
Song Wei said slowly with a smile on his face.

After listening to Song Wei's words, Ma Liang knew why Song Wei had such confidence and was willing to reject the conditions offered by Chu State.

Because they have this strength, and they also have the capital to make all countries covet.

This can be seen just from the simple things he did just now.

But then Ma Liang smiled.

"Master Song's Zhen'an County is indeed coveted, but has Master Song forgotten one thing?"

Ma Liang said with a grin: "Now Zhuo Mu is already on his way with a hundred thousand troops, and the only neighboring country that borders Zhen'an County is Chu State. Even if other countries want to help Master Song, then They can come too.”

"Ma can say with certainty that within three days at most, Zhuo Mu will attack with an army of [-], and at this time only Chu State can help Master Song."

"Moreover, the [-] troops of the Chu State are on the border between Zhen'an County and the Chu State. As long as Master Song speaks, they can rush to Zhen'an County immediately. Dare I ask if Master Song can guarantee that envoys from other countries can attack when the [-] troops arrive?" Did you rush to Zhen'an County before?"

Ma Liang smiled and continued.

As he said, the only country that can help Song Wei in time is the Chu State, and even if someone in other countries wants to help Song Wei, it is already too late.

Starting from Zhuo Mu's departure, people from Kyoto passed to other countries from that time, and other countries sent people to come, and Zhuo Mu had already lost more than half of the distance.

By the time they arrived in Zhen'an County, the war would probably be over, and they came here to collect Song Wei's body.

So Ma Liang now has confidence in his heart. He thinks that Song Wei can only cooperate with Chu State now. If Song Wei brings his invention to Chu State, what kind of benefits will it bring to Chu State?
The inconspicuous thing that Song Wei said just now was enough to shock others' jaws, so bringing all of Song Wei's inventions into Chu State, the picture will only be more spectacular than it is now.

Moreover, Ma Liang believed that if Song Wei didn't want to die, he had to cooperate with Chu State, which was an irresistible thing at all.

So after Ma Liang finished speaking, he looked at Song Wei with a smile.

Song Wei nodded after listening to Ma Liang's words. What Ma Liang said was also true, which Song Wei could not deny.

And Ma Liang's current attitude has changed a lot from the beginning, as if Ma Liang has decided that Song Wei must agree.

However, Song Wei also laughed.

"What General Ma means is that General Ma thinks that I must promise you Chu State in order to win this war?"

Song Wei is still very calm, and even now he can't see any panic.

Seeing Song Wei's expression, Ma Liang was taken aback.

With such an obvious ending, why is Song Wei still so calm?
Could it be that envoys from other countries have already arrived?And it's already been negotiated?

impossible!
After leaving the imperial capital, Ma Liang always hurried on his way, and those who hurried to reach Zhen'an County earlier than Zhuo Mu, while the journeys of other countries were farther than Chu, even if it was [-] miles, it was impossible to make it. so fast.

Ma Liang shook his head, if it was said that the envoys from other countries were faster than him, he would be the first to not believe it.

But why is Song Wei still so calm?
Does Song Wei have other guarantees?
No, it shouldn't be possible.

Although Ma Liang was shocked by Song Wei's Zhen'an County, he said that it was impossible for Song Wei to fight against an army of [-].

In the county government office, he only saw more than 300 government servants training. Could it be that Song Wei wanted to use these 300 people to fight against 10 people?

Don't dream, okay, 300 people can be trampled to death in front of an army of [-].

Song Wei looked at Ma Liang indifferently, his eyes were constantly changing. His confidence was not in his troops, but in his trump cards.

So Ma Liang never thought why Song Wei was so calm.

"Since General Ma doesn't believe it, how about we make a bet?"

Song Wei looked at Ma Liang and said suddenly.

Ma Liang was taken aback when he heard Song Wei's words.

bet?

What bet?Can Song Wei win the bet?

This is simply impossible!
"If I lose against a [-] army, then I will join Chu State for free and bring all my inventions with me."

"But if I win, I will not ask General Ma to do anything. As long as General Ma can maintain the friendship between Chu State and Zhen'an County, I am willing to sell my invention to Chu State at a low price."

When Song Wei saw that Ma Liang was silent, he smiled and continued.

Ma Liang frowned upon hearing Song Wei's words.

Looking at Song Wei's appearance, it feels like Song Wei has won this war.

But no matter how he thought about it, he felt that this was impossible, but now Song Wei wanted to bet again.

And the stakes don't seem too high, but...

Ma Liang frowned, he already had the idea of ​​agreeing to Song Wei, but he still had some doubts.

"Master Song, if Master Song really loses, how can Master Song guarantee that Master Song can enter the Chu Kingdom? If Master Song loses and the Kingdom of Chu sends people to help, I'm afraid we won't be able to win."

After thinking for a while, Ma Liang said silently.

It was normal for Ma Liang to be worried. After Song Wei lost, it would be too late for him to come to help Song Wei. I am afraid that by the time the [-] troops arrived in Zhen'an County, Zhen'an County would have been reduced to ruins.

However, Song Wei laughed when he heard Ma Liang's words.

"Hehe." Song Wei leaned forward, "So I have no intention of losing at all."

Song Wei looked at Ma Liang and said the last sentence word by word.

When Ma Liang heard this sentence, he felt as if he had been cheated.

Song Wei smiled slightly after seeing Ma Liang's expression as if he had eaten shit.

"General Ma doesn't have to be like this. Zhen'an County is not as fragile as General Ma imagined. If General Ma doesn't believe it, you can wait for the result."

After hearing Song Wei's words, Ma Liang's expression still did not relax.

He looked at Song Wei for a long time, and finally said: "Then Ma will wait and see."

Ma Liang felt that there was no need to continue the negotiation, because he found out that Song Wei had no intention of agreeing from the beginning.

What I said before was a waste of time. Since Song Wei didn't intend to agree, there was no need for him to stay here any longer.

"The results will definitely be an eye-opener for General Ma."

Song Wei also said something with a smile.

After hearing this, Ma Liang couldn't bear it anymore, and hurried out of the room.

After Ma Liang left, Song Mei stood up and smiled.

To be honest, Song Wei doesn't want to freeze relations with other countries now, because after this battle, Zhen'an County will definitely become famous.

Song Wei also wants to sell his products to all countries.

But this Ma Liang didn't seem to be what he thought, but it didn't matter. After the war was over, Song Wei felt that even if Ma Liang looked down on him, the emperor of Chu would have a good relationship with him. .

And after Ma Liang left the county office, he didn't leave Zhen'an County immediately, but wandered around Zhen'an County.

Song Wei gave him the feeling that he was strong, and he was very confident in this war.

Ma Liang wanted to take this opportunity to observe Zhen'an County carefully, so as to find out what Song Wei relied on?
