Next chapter

Seeing Chu Feng's smiling appearance, Carrodan was stunned.

Although he has traded with the Xinghua Chamber of Commerce many times, in Carodan's eyes, the Xinghua Chamber of Commerce is actually just an arms chamber of commerce, and he just wants to use the Xinghua Chamber of Commerce. He didn't even think about the possibility of an alliance with the Xinghua Empire. At the moment, it was the Xinghua Empire that mentioned it first, and the matter was very important, and he had to make sure that this matter was not dangerous to the clansmen, so Karodan couldn't help but be cautious and asked, "What's the benefit of our alliance?"

"The benefits, of course, are many. The Xinghua Army can provide officers to train the soldiers of the Shanyue tribe. Hearing Carodan's question, Chu Feng just smiled faintly, and the expression on his face was even more calm and calm, and he was not in a hurry to persuade Carodan with a variety of benefits, but only lightly picked out the things that Carodan was most concerned about, and said it first.

"Our army, we ourselves can train. When Carodan heard this, she immediately flatly refused. Although Carodan is the future leader of a clan, his talent is not low, and in his opinion, the army is the foundation of ensuring the power of one party, and if his army is mixed with other factors, it is definitely not a good thing.

Faced with Carodan's blunt refusal, Chu Feng was not angry, and continued: "Don't worry, Karodan Chief, I believe you have received the news that the Xinghua Army has occupied the Yunzhou Basin, so I believe that in the future, both of us can carry out transactions in 'all aspects' more freely." ”

Chu Feng deliberately accentuated his tone in all aspects, wanting to hint at him.

"Aren't we already trading now? We provide the gold, you provide the weapons. Carodan laughed, he still thought that Chu Feng would say what was at stake, but he didn't want to talk about these clichés.

In fact, Carodan did not hear clearly what the wind was saying.

As an official of the Xinghua Empire's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Chu Feng would not be unprepared before a negotiation. In fact, before Chu Feng came, he had already had a full and in-depth understanding of the Shanyue tribe, which gave him the reliance to negotiate with the Shanyue tribe.

Although in the southwestern region of the Xia Kingdom, the Shanyue people can be regarded as a large clan with a solid foundation and a large population, but when it comes to economic strength, it must still be inferior to a strong country. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the local government of the Xia Kingdom was extremely oppressive and exploitative of these tribes and races on weekdays, the Shanyue tribe would not have given up a good life, but the idea of rebelling against the Xia court had arisen, and there would be no need to trade with the Xinghua Chamber of Commerce.

The Shanyue people were accumulating dissatisfaction with the Xia State government, and Chu Feng wanted to take advantage of this and tie the Shanyue people to the chariot of the Xinghua Army. Although the two sides did not have a deep friendship in the past, as long as they had a common enemy, they could stand on the same front and pull them together to fight against the Xia court, which was also a matter of strength to the Xinghua army, so Chu Feng would come to talk with Carodan on behalf of the Xinghua Empire.

Of course, Chu Feng was also ready to do both, even if Karodan could agree to the alliance between the Shanyue clan and the Xinghua Army, the Xinghua Empire would have to guard against it. After all, the Shanyue people are still the Xia country after all, although they have a gap with the local government of the Xia country, but it is difficult to ensure that after the alliance between the two armies, when the Shanyue people really send troops to rise in turmoil, the Xia court will be very happy with them in order to calm the local rebellion, if the Shanyue people waver at that time, the Xinghua army will fall into a dangerous situation.

Therefore, in order to prevent the Shanyue people from wavering lightly, Chu Feng was ready to let the Shanyue people give the Xia court a hard blow before actually forming an alliance, so that the two sides could truly accept the grudge, and cut off the possibility of the Shanyue people being shaken.

After hearing Carodan's answer, Chu Feng knew that the time had come to pierce the skylight.

"Do you still have any money?" Chu Feng said again without warning, but this time, he successfully blocked Carodan's questioning. In the face of Chu Feng's unceremonious inquiry, Carodan's face turned red and white, and then he was angry, but he could only be speechless, because Chu Feng's words did hit the weakness of the Shanyue clan.

Seeing Karodan's embarrassment, Chu Feng's eyes flashed, and he said slowly: "If you don't mind if you don't mind me talking nonsense as an outsider, I personally have an idea. The national strength of the Xia Kingdom is strong, and in this regard, the leader of Carodan, you naturally know better than me that any city in the Xia Kingdom, even if it is a small city, has huge wealth. If you grab it once, it is estimated that the Shanyue people will not have to think about their livelihood for several years. ”

Chu Feng's proposal to Carodan, from Carodan's point of view, is naturally not a good idea, even if Carodan doesn't care about whether or not he has a bad relationship with Xia Guo, but if he really wants to do this, it is an extremely risky thing after all.

Karodan's eyes narrowed, as if he was thinking, but he asked tentatively, "This is the purpose of your alliance with our Shanyue clan?"

"Of course not. Chu Feng flatly denied it and continued: "The purpose of cooperation between the two sides is to achieve a win-win situation for both sides. If the Shanyue people sincerely cooperate with us, I will no longer be verbose about the exchange of goods, what are the advantages and conveniences. The Xinghua army is too weak in the territory of the Xia Kingdom, so we need allies, and you Shanyue tribe are in the minority and weak in the territory of the Xia Kingdom, and you also need to have the strength to support them. We can provide you with weapons, food, and even military support to help you establish the Shanyue Autonomous Region and even the Shanyue Kingdom......"

Chu Feng's sugar-coated cannonballs, bombarding in full swing and repeatedly, made Carodan's original guess about the Xinghua Army so hard that he couldn't find the edge, and Carodan couldn't tell whether he was advancing or retreating for a while. I have to say that Chu Feng's promise did make Carodan feel very tempted, and he wanted to confront the Xia court, and if the Shanyue clan could get all kinds of support, it would be good.

Carrodan was silent for a while, thought about it, and then straightened out his thoughts, and when he looked at Chu Feng again, he still didn't accept the invitation to cooperate, but asked first, "What benefits can you get?"

Chu Feng's negotiation skills are very good, and the words have already come to this point, when Carodan raised this question, he no longer said in a tentative tone, but opened the skylight and said clearly: "As long as you Shanyue clan continue to raise the banner, it is the greatest support for us." Moreover, at that time, the Xia Imperial Court will not be able to show full strength to deal with us. As long as we have time to digest Yunzhou, it will be difficult for Xia to regain Yunzhou, and as long as we stabilize the power of Yunzhou, we will naturally strive to ensure the integrity of the Shanyue people. ”

Karodan said unexpectedly, "You really don't need the Shanyue clan to do anything?"

"Of course, we need the Shanyue to stay on the same side as us! If you're worried, we can also have in-depth cooperation. When Chu Feng said this, he no longer smiled just now, and the expression on his face was particularly stern.

Seeing that Chu Feng was serious, Carrodan no longer treated him as a child's play. It's just that he doesn't want to give any affirmative answer at this time about whether the Shanyue tribe and the Xinghua army are allied or not. Because although Chu Feng's words are conclusive, there are always some unspeakable doubts in Carodan's heart, and there is no answer for a while, after thinking about it, Carodan thinks that it is better to go back and discuss with his father and the famous clansmen first, and then make a conclusion, but he can't help but worry that he will be underestimated by Chu Feng and others.

Chu Feng saw Karodan's hesitation, so he secretly glanced at Che Enren, who understood and said to Karodan: "Young leader, let's start trading." ”

"Okay, let's trade first. Carodan replied, and when he went down the steps, he also took advantage of the situation, but he thought that he should give Chu Feng an explanation first, so he said to Chu Feng: "I wrote down your mention, let me think about it, and in three days, I will send someone to give you the answer." ”

"As long as you agree to form an alliance, you can directly send someone to Xiangshan County, and we will talk about the alliance. Chu Feng said with a smile. Although Carodan didn't say it directly, Chu Feng already knew in his heart that this alliance would definitely go smoothly next.

It wasn't until he left the territory of the Shanyue tribe that Che Enren, who had always had doubts in his heart, asked Chu Feng, why did the empire form an alliance with the Shanyue people?

Chu Feng told Sù Che Enren that this is the experience of the Blue Mercury Huaguo, and uniting a qiē can unite the forces and solve the main contradiction first. At present, if the Xinghua Army wants to gain a foothold in Yunzhou of the Xia Kingdom, the Xia Imperial Court is the biggest enemy of the Xinghua Army, and other people or organizations that have contradictions with the Xia Imperial Court should be the goal of the Xinghua Empire.

Chu Feng's words, Che Enren understood, but as a businessman, he felt that Chu Feng's approach was unnecessary, thinking that there was no need to express those national righteousness to the Shanyue tribe, these were just officials of the Imperial Foreign Ministry, who were desperately trying to prove their worth.

In any case, the actions of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Xinghua Empire, the Xinghua Army cooperated. As long as the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs do not defect and harm the interests of the country, the Xinghua Army will not dismantle the platform.

A few days later, Chu Feng met with the leader of the Shanyue tribe, Old Carrodan, in Xiangshan County, and Qin Zhengguo attended to vouch for Chu Feng. The Shanyue people and the Xinghua Army formally formed an alliance, and the two sides carried out in-depth cooperation.

The first principle of cooperation is the main purpose, which stipulates that the two sides will not attack each other and live in peace.

The second article of cooperation is the details, and the next specific places that need the cooperation of the Shanyue people and the Xinghua Army.

The first is that the Shanyue people will plan to attack a county seat in Guizhou, the Xia Kingdom. Guizhou, located on the east side of Yunzhou, and the county seat that the Shanyue people will attack is Biangui County in Guizhou, starting from Guixi County in Yunzhou, it is necessary to cross two mountains and walk thousands of miles, a total of about five days and five nights of travel, to reach Biangui County. Therefore, the first thing the Shanyue people face is the loss caused by the long distance, and in order to alleviate the impact of this negative factor, the Xinghua Army will send a special operations elite of 50 people to assist the Shanyue people;

Second, as Chu Feng said, the Xinghua army has recently captured the Yunzhou region, and the foundation here is not stable, and it is still necessary to strengthen the control, so in order to assist the Xinghua army in controlling the Yunzhou mountains, the Shanyue tribe will also send a clan soldier. As long as any Xia people who are found to have scurried into the mountainous areas, they must be arrested and handed over to the Xinghua Army for disposal, or the Xinghua Army will be warned according to the situation, so that the Xinghua Army can personally arrest them. As long as the Shanyue tribe assists strongly, the Xinghua army will provide a reward. Of course, the first premise is that the Shanyue tribe must also recognize the dominance of the Xinghua army over Yunzhou, and do not allow any branch of the Shanyue tribe to provide any help to the Xia court and do any kind of behavior that is unfavorable to the Xinghua army.

Xia Guoyunzhou, Shucheng.

The prefect's yamen, Ouyang Deren was in a low mood again, sitting alone and drinking, borrowing wine to kill his sorrows.

Arresting and making up for the Xinghua merchants and stealing the property of the Xinghua merchants was what he had done proudly before, but the more this happened, the more he felt that this move was a big loss. Because, although he made a lot of profits in the early stage, it turned into a big trouble later, and he blocked his future official road.

For this reason, Euro Naruhito didn't know how much money he had filled in, just so that he could deal with the aftermath, and I was afraid that if he really calculated it, the money he earned from the merchants of Xinghua Kingdom would not be enough for a long time.

Ouyang Deren couldn't help but sigh a few more times, and began to talk to himself: "I am blinded by lard, so I will think of taking advantage of it." In the end, I realized that my greatest wealth was my power. If you have no power, you have no money......"

Da Da Da, Ouyang Deren's master, hurriedly ran in and shouted, "Master, a heavenly official has come with a holy decree. ”

Hearing this, Ouyang Deren's heart flashed, and the wine glass in his hand accidentally slipped and fell to the ground.

"Do you know the intention of the Heavenly Official?" Ouyang Deren secretly had a bad feeling in his heart and asked in surprise.

"Sir, I don't know. The master said helplessly.

The prefect's appearance these days, he has been looking at it, perhaps, this time the arrival of the heavenly official will determine the future of the prefect, I am afraid that it is...... It's almost over. It seems that he is also considering a change of owner.

Ouyang Deren saw the master's expression, and he was even more determined about the guess in his heart, stood up, looked at his clothes, and said to the master: "Quickly help me change the official mansion and put the incense case ......"

After a while, the heavenly officials sent by the imperial court stood in the public hall and read the holy decree to Ouyang Deren and other officials.

When the heavenly official finished reading the holy decree with an expressionless face, Ouyang Deren called out to thank the emperor for his majesty, and Weichen obeyed the decree...... But he couldn't stand up, his feet were weak.

The emperor's accountability has finally come. Ouyang Deren was dismissed from office and was to enter Beijing to be interrogated.

This time, the Shu army was defeated, and after such a big account is settled, there must be many people who will have to bear the black pot. And Ouyang Deren himself understands very well that the biggest black cauldron will only hit himself. Because, if it weren't for him, how could the Shu army have such a big battle? At present, he had no choice but to bear the responsibility for the defeat of the Shu army, so that he could at least save his family
