Chapter 1576: Mutual Speculation

Azig suddenly laughed too, "Haha...... This king is just joking with General Li, as long as General Li restrains his subordinates and does not continue to advance north...... This king can live in harmony with Guangxinwei. ”

Li Guo also laughed and said: "If Prince Ying can't afford the price Li said, then ...... I'm afraid that's the end of it. ”

Azig's heart burst with anger, but his face forced and said, "But this king has one condition. ”

"Please."

"This king wants to buy firearms in the hands of Guangxinwei."

Rao is Li Guo had some mental preparations, but he was also frightened by Azig's condition.

Isn't that a joke?

Two armies face each other, and one side wants to buy weapons that the other side relies on to save their lives?

But Azig obviously didn't seem to be joking, and he said seriously: "This king can pay the price of eighty taels and one strokes." ”

Li Guo's heart suddenly moved, and he replied with a deep sigh: "Sell the musket to Prince Ying...... It's not that it's impossible, it's just that the number can't be large, and Prince Ying should know why. ”

Azig naturally knew why, and he grinned: "This king wants half of ......." ”

Li Guo's eyes shrank and said with a smile: "Cheng...... However, it must be traded in cash, with one hand paying money and one hand. ”

"Deal!"

Li Guo suddenly smiled mysteriously, "If Prince Ying really needs a musket, it's not impossible. ”

"Oh?"

"Silver." Li Guo gestured, "Since Prince Ying has guessed that this is a game, then Li will not hide it...... One hundred taels and one musket. ”

Azig was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Silver, this king has it, but how do you make this king believe that Wu Zheng will allow you to sell your musket to this king?" ”

Li Guo shook his head and said, "Prince Ying misunderstood...... It is a great sin to sell muskets to the enemy, and I have pity on my child....... ”

Speaking of this, Li Guo became inexplicably sad, and tears came as soon as he said it.

Azig is a bastard, he has never seen such a scene, he cries when he says crying, he is at a loss.

Fortunately, Li Guo stopped at the point, wiped away his tears and said: "Prince Ying is also a long-time high-ranking person, so he naturally knows a word...... Hide it from the top and don't hide it from the bottom! People, how much should they always leave a way back for themselves, and a way back for their wives and children at home, right? As long as there is silver, the military workshop is not a monolith, and naturally, the General's Mansion is not monolithic. ”

No matter how stupid Azig is, he can understand such straightforward words, but Azig is not a stupid person after all, he asked: "General Li should always tell this king, who is the person you are talking about, after all, this king has to pay real money, right?" ”

Li Guo pondered for a while and spit out a person's name, "Ma Shiying." ”

Azig was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly, stroked his palm and laughed: "Okay...... Good...... Sure enough, it's not monolithic. Yes...... That's it. ”

In fact, Ma Shiying's reputation is indeed too stinky, but today's "stink" is different from before, the previous stink was because of greed for money but not betraying the country, but now, he is greedy for money and betraying the country.

If he hadn't been favored by His Royal Highness King Wu, I'm afraid that someone would hand him a knife when he walked on the road.

Azig believed it, convinced.

Not for anything else, just because he had long heard that Ma Shiying had secretly colluded with some people in the imperial court to resell the firearms of the Jiangnan Military Workshop, and even wanted to sell various formulas of the military workshop at a price.

Hearing Li Guo say Ma Shiying's name, in Azig's opinion, it is to put on a protective shield for this gray transaction, and yes, since Ma Shiying has sold a lot of firearms to the north, he shouldn't continue to sell them, no one will be disgusted with more money and more silver, right?

……。

Li Guo never imagined that Shen Zhiyuan would suddenly visit.

Only two days after the meeting with Azig, Li Guo ushered in Shen Zhiyuan in disguise.

Li Guo didn't even believe it at the first time, thinking that it was a messenger who came by name.

When Shen Zhiyuan himself was seen, Li Guo believed it.

You don't need any tokens, you can believe when you see people.

Because there is an invisible momentum in the superior.

This is not the momentum that I bring, but the momentum that my identity endows.

"Long admiration." Shen Zhiyuan cherishes words like gold.

"Long admiration!" Li Guo really came from the bottom of his heart.

The shadow of the name tree of man.

Shen Zhiyuan was still one year younger than Wu Zheng, and in just six years, he went from an unknown boy to the Qing court's Elu and Pingnan generals, holding 30,000 new army powers...... It's like the sun is in full swing.

Li Guo knew very well that the new army was powerful, and all the new-style muskets were 60 or 70 taels and 100 rounds of paper bullets were 2 taels...... Tsk, Guangxin Wei belongs to the Northern Expeditionary Army, but when it arrived, it didn't get a single gun.

That's not all, Shen Zhiyuan's new army is equipped with hundreds of field direct guns and siege guns, which is not comparable to Guangxinwei.

Of course, these are not the real reasons why Li Guo said from the bottom of his heart and admired him for a long time.

The real reason is that Shen Zhiyuan is very popular.

That's right, Shen Zhiyuan was valued by Dolgon in the Qing court, married a Manchu woman, and added the title of Doro, followed by the continuous improvement of the official position, even if Dolgon died, Shen Zhiyuan became one of the "auxiliary ministers" of the heir King Dolbo, this opportunity ...... Tsk, it's really not something ordinary people can imagine.

And the most fortunate thing is that Shen Zhiyuan surrendered from fraud to real surrender, and even led the army to break through Tongzhou, resulting in more than 1,000 casualties of Wu Songwei soldiers.

In fact, not only Li Guo was not convinced by this matter, but there was also a lot of opposition in the Northern Expeditionary Army to King Wu's handling of this matter.

It's just that Wu Zheng's prestige is too high, and no one dares to make accusations and admonishments against Wu Zheng.

Long admiration is long admiration, Li Guo never thinks that long admiration is about the position determined by the ass.

Therefore, Li Guo's next sentence after "Jiu Yang" was, "General Shen came uninvited, wouldn't he also want to buy firearms from Li?" ”

"Exactly."

Li Guo was stunned.

was indeed stunned, he regretted what he asked, and the words rushed out of his mouth, and he didn't even have a chance to take it back.

Shen Zhiyuan said solemnly: "Once the war starts, in fact, with or without firearms in Guangxinwei's hands, the outcome of defeat is the same, and it cannot be reversed, unless Wu Zheng can order the Northern Expeditionary Army to rush to reinforcements...... But this is unrealistic, Guangxinwei has become a rebel, and the new dynasty has a peace treaty with the Qing court, not to mention that Wu Zhengzhen wants to be able to reinforce Guangxinwei, so why bother to make Guangxinwei a rebel? General Li, instead of cheapening Prince Azig of England, it is better to sell it to me, at least, I am Han! ”

"How do you know that Prince Ying also wants to buy firearms in Guangxinwei's hands?" As soon as these words came out, Li Guo regretted it again.
