Chapter 972: The Taste of the Flowing Water Seat
That Tang Zhaozong saw that he couldn't recover the situation, so he simply abandoned the troops struggling on the ice field with Empress He, and returned to the Tang Dynasty with that Empress He.
In fact, that Empress He and Tang Zhaozong did a lot of things in the land of the Tang Dynasty, and now that they are back, it is bound to set off a bloody storm.
Therefore, that Tang Zhangwei had to be prepared, after all, that Tang Zhaozong was still the nominal ruler of the Tang Dynasty, and that Tang Zhangwei couldn't stop that Tang Zhaozong from doing anything.
Tang Zhangwei said to Fei Xuechun: "I'm depressed because I'm depressed here. ”
One of Fei Xuechun's animal tamers smiled, and this beast tamer was a young girl.
Generally speaking, those felines are very trained, these felines always have their own ideas, and they are not as loyal as dogs.
However, this beast tamer made the big leopard more honest than a dog, and the big leopard was lying on his stomach like that, obediently working for the beast tamer.
Tang Zhangwei thought that Queen He also had a plan for training beasts, so he asked Fei Xuechun: "Is your subordinate your relative?" ”
Fei Xuechun said: "This girl is my godsister. However, this beast tamer is dangerous. After all, those circuses of the Eastern Roman Empire, like those gladiators, used their lives to please the audience. ”
Tang Zhangwei said: "In this world, many people are destined to be controlled by some people. Those people are controlled by others, and those beast tamers can make the beasts sit, but they can't see through people's hearts. ”
"I don't know how you got involved with my sister, firstly, in my sister's face, and secondly, I also admire you for having the courage to come here, I will give you this chance, if you can come up with a suitable reason, I will let you thieves go."
Before I could reply, he turned to the other side and said loudly, "Father, I didn't want to talk a lot of nonsense to these barbarians who have stolen the territory of my domain. However, since their leaders have the courage to stand in our halls, we as knights should give them this opportunity to expound our opinions. If it does make sense, for the sake of Wytonnoor's future, I, on behalf of the military, can make concessions. ”
"What the prince said is very true, this ......" pointed to King Wytonnoor, who was speechless for a while, and drifted his inquiring eyes to the prime minister under the throne.
Nemanov hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The commander of the Radinovia Escort Regiment, Your Excellency Fapu can express your opinion. ”
Turning his head and smiling at Tang Zhaozong, who was staring at me with sharp eyes, I took a step forward and began my speech: "I don't want to say anything more, I know that to Whitunnoor, especially to Wytonnoor's military, we are just wandering thieves. If I were to talk about it here, you would think it was not worth listening to, so before I speak, let me present something. ”
"Okay, quasi-"
Thirteen chests were carried to the hall one after another, and the eyes of the courtiers in the hall were immediately attracted to it, I glanced around, and then gently opened one of the boxes, and the yellow and clear gold shone brightly, illuminating the eyes of most people, and the whispering sound suddenly sounded like a summer cicada.
"Here are 1,000 catties of gold and three boxes of jewelry, worth a total of 200,000 gold coins." As he spoke, he opened the boxes one by one, and even the king of Wyton Noll couldn't help but stand up, showing a surprised expression.
"Don't treat us all like those greedy people who want to buy us with money, that's all you have to know." Tang Zhaozong snorted coldly on the side.
"Where, this is not to buy your country, this is just as part of my annual tribute from Landinovia." Answering Tang Zhaozong with a smile, I took out a gold brick from the box, "If I'm not mistaken, the current Wyton Nuoer needs to consume about a hundred gold bricks every day in order to maintain the garrison in the cloister area, such as military salaries, grain and grass, etc. If I'm not mistaken, there are only 100,000 such gold bricks in the treasury of Wyton Noor. If it was the original Wyton Noor, of course, there would be other income, and it would be able to keep the balance of income and expenditure, but now ......"
"Are you threatening us?" Tang Zhaozong frowned.
"No, it's a reality for you. If our information is correct, last year, your country had a poor harvest and the trade routes were closed, and all the taxes were not enough to cover the expenses. Military spending accounts for more than half. If it continues, it will not take ten months for your country's treasury to dry up. When the time comes......"
"In less than ten months, we will be able to exterminate you thieves." Tang Zhaozong snorted coldly.
"Please listen to me, Your Highness the Prince."
"Wang'er, listen to him." The king, bewitched by gold, was clearly not able to make a rational judgment.
"Compared to your country's military strength, of course my Wandering Corps is inferior. However, due to the barrier of the cloister, the battle between us is not big at all. Even if your country attacks, the losses you will face, His Royal Highness the Prince should be very clear. Next to me, staring at the map: "What you said is not unreasonable, but as long as you are eliminated, Wyton Noel will have enough strength sooner or later if he cultivates for a while." ”
"That's when the trade routes in the south are blocked, and once they are opened, do you think the profits of the trade routes in the north will be so high? After all, the trade routes in the north have to take too many sea routes, and the forces that are much higher in risk than the south and south are trapped by the barbarians, so naturally there is no chance, but what about the north? It was up to Whiton Noor to extricate himself from the war at Landinovia, and if not, the same tired soldier would not have the strength to cross the Golden Mountain Ardennes. Then, the war on the continent is a stalemate, and then ...... I don't know ...... anymore."
Tang Zhaozong was silent for a while and walked to
Square. If you follow what you said, Whiton Noor has not controlled Landinovia for a day or two, and I haven't seen it as powerful. ”
"Hmph, tell me, what the hell are you going to do?"
"Quite simply, to ensure the smooth flow of trade routes, we at Landinovia pay the necessary funds every year; In exchange, Waitonnorr was to claim full sovereignty over Taranvino and allow the servants of El Fasil to pass through Waitonnor's territory. That way, Whiton Knoll will have enough time to save his strength and go south in one fell swoop. ”
"That's a good idea, according to your plan, Wyton Noll will soon be able to gather enough strength to go south in one fell swoop.
It's just that I'm going to be very uncomfortable with a wolf to sleep next to me. Tang Zhaozong took a step back, and I could see that his hand was naturally pressed on the hilt of the sword.
