Chapter 791: Land for Gold Mine

"He really dares to do it, in this critical situation, he actually risked the world not to strike first, it really deserves to be a hundred miles of Yan, and there is probably nothing in the world that he does not dare to violate." Gongliang Xiu sighed with emotion, put away the letter and said to his father Gongliang: "Father, according to the child's opinion, the situation in the Central Plains will be uncertain, so I should write to the second uncle as soon as possible to deal with the changes in the internal dynasty." ”

"Well, what Xiu'er saw was the same as his father, Shengyan and Thunder were about to be defeated, the eldest grandson was unable to continue south, and there was no suspense in the battle on the Eastern Front. Now the Xian country is like a fish in water, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, if the king of Jin does not raise the strength of the whole country to fight to the death can not destroy the salt, but if the army, with the ability of a hundred miles of Yan, it will be a defeat for both sides, I am afraid that the king of Jin will soon be difficult to ride a tiger. From this point of view, the foundation of Xianguo has been formed, and with a little time to recuperate, it will become a strong country in the Central Plains. ”

"It's all because the child was impulsive that day, I'm afraid that Bailiyan will taunt me next time."

"Huh...... This person is really not simple, according to his father, Baili Yan is sure that you will not believe him, so he will first talk to you, and then provoke you, only in this way, my Gongliang clan will be at a loss. In fact, he played tricks first, and we suffered last. ”

"What my father said is extremely true, Bai Liyan is now like those profiteers, begging for advice and bargaining like a businessman doing business, I have never seen such a shameful person."

"The quarrel between princes is not a business, but the goods traded have become land and lives. In this way, I will wait and see what happens, and when Bailiyan retreats from the Jin army, it will not be too late to negotiate with Xianguo according to the affairs of Chengcheng and Xingcheng. ”

"What if the king doesn't allow it?"

"At present, the defense of the country has not yet advanced eastward, and our army can continue to advance westward to occupy more land. At that time, when the Xian State retreated from the Jin army, it was inevitable to negotiate peace with the country, and it was inevitable to give up the land. In this way, if our Zhiguo also occupies more land, it will inevitably directly border the Weiguo, and after the compromise between the Weiguo and the Xianguo, it will immediately turn the tide against us.

Thinking for my father, now that the king has occupied the gold and silver mines of Ziyuan County of Xu State, Xu State will come to ask for it in the future, so it is better to continue to move westward, exchange the newly occupied land with Xu State, and form a good alliance with Xu State so that Xu State can block the front and block the edge of Wei Guo for our army. ”

"But after all, Ziyuan County is a big gold and silver mine, although Xu Guo's vitality is greatly damaged, his national capital is still there, and he will probably not agree to give up gold and silver minerals just for the land of Sun Guo." Gongliang Xiu worried.

Ziyuan County borders on the hometown of Sun Guo, not far from the western border of Zhiguo, and after the retreat of Longyuan Heavenly King to the north, he took refuge in the Gongliang clan, and by the way, he did not leave Ziyuan County, and occupied all the local gold and silver mines for Zhiguo.

As the largest mining area in the Central Plains, Ziyuan County accounts for one-fifth of the annual gold and silver output in the Central Plains.

This scale is unbelievable at the moment, equivalent to the total number of all gold mines in hundreds of counties in the Central Plains, and the total amount of gold and silver in one county of Ziyuan accounts for 20%.

For a barren country like Xu, where the arable land and grasslands are half divided and most areas can only grow two or even one season of wheat, being able to become a strong country is inseparable from the huge output of gold and silver.

Gongliangxiu was worried that Xu Guo would not easily exchange gold and silver producing areas for land, but Gongliangyi was scheming:

"Xiu'er, do you think that in the face of wolves and tigers, Xu Guo is more afraid of wolves, or is he more afraid of tigers."

Gongliang Xiu was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what his father meant:

"The child is puzzled, please ask the father to make it clear."

"Hehe, the wolf is greedy and ferocious, and the tiger is fierce and mighty, but although the former is small, the territory it holds is several times or even dozens of times that of the latter, so Xu Guo is more afraid of wolves."

"Father is saying that Xu will respect and defend the country and stay away?"

"Isn't it? This patriotic country is greedy and savage, and its greed is unprecedented. Now once it has entered the hinterland of the Central Plains from the West Sea, its national strength has not hurt the country's capital in the past two hundred years. On the other hand, the Central Plains countries have been in turmoil for decades, and the eastward march of the country at this time is tantamount to putting a wolf in the mountain of the sick tiger.

Moreover, I expected that after this fright, King Xian would definitely cede the land to protect himself. In this way, Wei Guo swallowed the land west of the Sishui River in Xianguo, and Xu Guo felt when he saw it. ”

"The child understands that his father wants to let Xu Guo choose between bad and worse, and exchange the land of several counties for Xu Guo's concessions."

"Exactly. Compared to gold and silver, which have lost their nourishment. Xu was able to gain more land and people, and for Xu Guo, it has suffered huge losses in the past ten years, and people will be more important than gold and silver. Overall, Xu Guo is profitable. ”

"Although my father's words are reasonable, the king may not agree with them."

"If you don't want to be enemies of Xu and Wei and repeat the mistakes of Xianguo, the king will agree. And when the world is fighting against thieves, they occupy all the gold and silver minerals in a county, and if they don't give an explanation, how can they be justified. Such shameless things, the king has no shame, and he has to be ashamed of his father. ”

Although the capture of Ziyuan was done by Long Yuan, it was King Zhi who implied justice and righteousness, and justice and righteousness acquiesced.

In this way, it is Gongliang and righteousness that actually offend Xu State, and in the future, Gongliang's rebellion will be made, and it is logical that Xu State will send troops to recover Ziyuan, and at the same time, Baili Yan will kill in the north again, and the country will send troops, and King Zhi will effortlessly let the Gongliang army be wiped out.

Seeing King Zhi's sinister intentions, Gongliangyi decided to follow Bailiyan's example, and took advantage of the failure to negotiate with the rebels to continue westward to take over more land, so as to trade with Xu and seek an alliance with Xu to curb Weiguo's ambition to expand eastward.

On the third day of December, Bailiyan hurriedly arrived at the Xianjun camp outside Dongping Pass, and Shentong led 60,000 troops to the north a few days ago, counting the time, and was about to enter Sangnan County, but it was still in the dark.

Flawless taking into account the life and death of the supernatural powers, after a day of repair, Bailiyan rushed back to Qiling non-stop, and rushed to Yongxing at dusk on the tenth day of December, and met Zong Botai first, and Su Fangyi and the two learned about the news of the Jin army.

Uncle Fang's departure took office, Bai Liyan had learned the news halfway, but he still didn't know much about the news of the Jin army on the Eastern Front.

After the news leaked, King Jin completely tore his face, no longer made any cover-up, accelerated the deployment of troops, and opened his bloody mouth and sharp fangs.

At the end of November, the veteran general Wang Yanfei led Zhenxi County to complete the assembly in Jiangdong East County, and the naval army had entered the Xianguo Wangqinjiang River section to patrol the river, and the Jin army on the western front was all pressed within 50 miles of the Xianguo border side of Xianxi County, and the troops were stationed under the city everywhere, just waiting for the eastern front to start a war.

The next day, Bai Liyan hurriedly went to Chengling to meet King Xian, entered from the east gate, and galloped past when passing through the main store of the department store on Ginkgo Street, and was seen by the shopkeeper, and hurriedly reported the news to Jiang Rong and others.

"Big lady, Hou Ye, Hou Ye is back."

The women were overjoyed when they heard the news, and Jiang Rong got up and hurriedly asked:

"Master Hou sent someone over?"

"No, I was talking to the customer outside the store just now, and I saw the general riding a flying feather rushing by, and I saw that the back was very similar to the battle robe."

"Look bad!"

Qiao Fu'er asked anxiously, and the shopkeeper was very sure:

"There must be no mistake, it must be the general's flying feather."

The shopkeeper replied in the affirmative, and the women were ecstatic:

"Looking forward to the stars and the moon, I finally looked forward to Hou Ye back."

As soon as Tang Tao's words came out, he immediately received Qiao Fu'er's unkind gaze:

"As far as you know, Panxing, the other sisters are not as good as you."

Tang Tao was as startled as a bird, hiding behind Jiang Rong, busy compensating:

"Tang Tao knows that she said the wrong thing again, and the fourth lady spared Tang Tao this time."

"Hmph, I'm too lazy to be like you."

Qiao Fu'er didn't take Tang Tao seriously in her heart, especially on the issue of money, except for Jiang Rong and Xiao Chunyu, Tang Tao has no family support, no monopoly on power, at best, she is a wine bag and rice bag that can sing and dance, and can sit on a needle below.
