After being scolded by Jiang Yuan, Yang Tai took two steps back with a pale face.

"Go now! Otherwise I'll chop you to pieces!" Jiang Yuan roared again.

Yang Tai wanted to say something, but was silenced by Jiang Yuan's shout and could only turn around and leave with a group of soldiers.

Zhao Junxuan, who was in the distance, looked at the scene in a daze: "What's going on? It seems that Yang Tai had a conflict with someone."

"I don't know. We have already met their conditions. How could there be a conflict?" Jiazi also spoke in confusion.

After a while, when Yang Tai returned to the two of them, he immediately repeated Jiang Yuan's words.

"Your Highness! I think they are being unreasonable!"

Zhao Junxuan shook his head. "I think it's quite reasonable. I was just wondering why such an important matter only cost 100,000 taels of silver."

"This amount of money may seem like a lot, but it's not enough to cover the costs. Maybe we really misunderstood."

"Time is urgent. It's only 100,000 taels of gold. Whatever. Give it to them!"

Yang Tai nodded frustratedly, and when the gold was brought over, he set off again with a group of soldiers.

When everyone reached the top of the mountain again, Jiang Yuan opened the box and took a look, he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

"Hahaha, not bad, one hundred thousand taels of gold, not bad!"

Yang Tai said with an extremely unhappy expression: "Since it has been confirmed, please withdraw your troops."

Jiang Yuan angrily pouted at Long Guangxian: "Mr. Yang, you talked to General Long, why are you telling me this?"

Yang Tai nodded reluctantly and turned to look at Long Guangxian: "General Long, we have met your conditions. Please withdraw your troops."

Long Guangxian subconsciously looked at Jiang Yuan. Whether or not to retreat was not something he could decide.

"General Long, I've told you so many times that as a person, you must be honest. If you take something from someone else, you must take action to prove it." Jiang Yuan said unhappily.

"Okay, then, did I really announce it?" Long Guangxian said through gritted teeth.

Jiang Yuan nodded and said nothing more.

Long Guangxian took a deep breath and shouted to the sky, "Everyone, retreat three miles!"

With a roar, all the soldiers standing on the mountain turned to look at Long Guangxian, but only for a glance, and then they looked at Jiang Yuan without moving a step.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Jiang Yuan didn't speak, everyone immediately turned around and did what they were doing.

It was not until this time that Long Guangxian finally reacted and showed an expression of admiration towards Jiang Yuan.

Yang Tai, who saw this scene, became a little uneasy and quickly came to Long Guangxian: "General Long, what do you mean by this?"

"Since 100,000 taels of gold are already before us, why don't we withdraw our troops?"

Long Guangxian looked at the other person confidently: "What do you mean by that? I just shouted so loudly, I guess your master heard it, didn't you hear it?"

"But they didn't move?" Yang Tai looked around in confusion.

He had naturally heard Long Guangxian's orders, but why didn't any of these soldiers follow suit? What did this mean?

Long Guangxian spread his hands and said, "As you can see, these people don't listen to me. They are not my soldiers at all."

"I was wondering about this at first. I fled Caiyun City with less than two thousand people. How could you think that these tens of thousands of people were all my men?"

"Besides, none of my people are here right now, and those who are here are not my people, so they definitely won't listen to me."

Yang Tai opened his mouth wide, his eyes filled with confusion: "Not your people? General Long, what do you mean by that?"

At this moment, a hand gently patted Yang Tai's shoulder: "Haha, Mr. Yang, these are all from my Taiping County."

Yang Tai turned around quickly and saw the young man who had refused to introduce himself.

"You, you are..."

"Oh, I'm Jiangyuan from Taiping County."

Yang Tai swallowed his saliva and said quickly: "Excuse me, excuse me. In that case, please withdraw your troops, Lord Jiang."

Jiang Yuan's expression changed, and there was a hint of shock in his eyes: "Mr. Yang, what do you mean by this? Why should I withdraw my troops?"

"If I withdraw and the higher-ups find out, I'll lose my head. This is not a joke, Mr. Yang."

Yang Tai raised a trembling hand and pointed to the gold placed beside him: "Master Jiang, we have delivered this gold. You can't go back on your word."

"What?" Jiang Yuan screamed, then looked at Yang Tai unhappily.

"Mr. Yang, are you fucking stupid?"

"This money was given to General Long by you, and General Long also agreed to withdraw your troops."

"And everyone just heard General Long also call for a withdrawal, but what the hell does this have to do with me?"

"You didn't give me this money, why should I withdraw my troops?"

Yang Tai was shocked and looked at Jiang Yuan angrily: "Master Jiang, aren't you and General Long in the same camp?"

"Since he has agreed, you should withdraw your troops as agreed!"

"Get lost! General Long is the garrison commander of Caiyun City. What does that have to do with my Taiping County? Are you fucking mentally retarded?"

"According to you, if General Long gives an order, all the city defense troops in the imperial capital must obey it?"

Facing Jiang Yuan's curse, Yang Tai almost couldn't breathe. Scoundrel! What a scoundrel!

"Master Jiang, that's not what you said."

"Shut up!" Jiang Yuan said impatiently.

"You're really bad, you bastard!"

"You gave me gold, and General Long withdrew his troops. Both sides have already fulfilled their agreement. And you still want to take advantage of me? There's no such good thing in the world."

Yang Tai gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay, is this how you act, Your Excellency? I, Yang, will remember this!"

After saying that, Yang Tai waved to the soldiers who came with him and was about to carry all the gold back.

However, just as Yang Tai was about to wave his hand, a big foot suddenly attacked from behind.

"what!"

Yang Tai was caught off guard and was kicked to the ground.

Before he woke up, Jiang Yuan's voice came from behind.

"Yang Tai! You are such a fickle and untrustworthy villain!"

"We agreed to give General Long 100,000 taels of gold. General Long agreed to that and ordered the troops to withdraw. But now you actually want to take that gold back?"

"What the hell do you think General Long is? Do you think he's a soft persimmon for you to pick on? Even if General Long is generous and doesn't mind your mean behavior."

"But! I, Jiang Yuan, hate dishonest people the most in my life. How dare you do such a shameless thing in front of me? I, Jiang Yuan, will be the first to disagree!"
