Chapter 374: A Living Paradox
Ye Limeng didn't need to count it to know that according to Lin Chong's calculations, he would have to pay more than 400,000 yuan to say the least. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info But if the party members don't say anything else, there is only one poor word left, 400,000 guan, and he doesn't even have 40,000 guan.
The money from the party is nothing more than green salt, military horses, leather, forging and commercial taxes, and of course, a huge amount of money, which is the 250,000 yuan given by the emperor of the Song State every year.
There is also the Song Dynasty Tianchang Festival, Li Qianshun will send a large delegation to send some bells and whistles to pay tribute, and deceive Zhao Ji of double rewards, and almost make fifty or sixty thousand yuan.
The party did not need to spend money to send troops to fight in Xingqing Mansion, except for some grain and grass to support at first, the soldiers brought their own soldiers. Moreover, if the war is won, some are captured, the soldiers take 30%, the officers and commanders take 20%, and half will be handed over to Xingqing Mansion.
Therefore, the herdsmen worked the battlefield as if they were crazy, and they generally fought against the Great Song Dynasty, and they had to go back to make a little sweetheart. I didn't expect to suffer such a big loss here in Lin Chong this time.
"No money!"
Lin Chong smiled and said, "Strategist, I remember that there seems to be something urgent to do?" ”
Zhu Wu has a spirit in his heart, this is to force Ye Li to bleed. Without blinking, he said, "The imperial court has a special letter on military affairs, and you must reply today." ”
Ye Li sighed violently, "Lin Hou, the party is a place of extreme poverty, unlike your Song Kingdom, which can easily make millions of guan, and our country really can't make up a huge sum of 400,000 guan!"
He didn't blush at all when he said this, he was famous for being poor, so he didn't care, anyway, you can't squeeze oil and water if you don't have money, and you can't take me.
Lin Chong shouted and made a gesture to get up, "Bad luck, this time it's in vain!" Take a walk and don't forget to drag the wine back! ”
Ye Limeng really had no choice but to grit his teeth and say, "One hundred thousand, there is no more, or you see how much my head is worth, just cut it and exchange it for money." ”
Lin Chong's face instantly turned bright, and he smiled and said, "Meng Shuai said that you are laughing, you are worth more than 10 million, and it is too extravagant to cut it for money!" What's more, you treat Benhou so sincerely, how can I be a scheming person? 100,000 is 100,000, my kitchen has been short of salt recently, can you get a 2,000 stone blue salt to taste? ”
Who will need 2,000 stone for salt shortage? Is your kitchen a pickle shop?!
Ye Li pinched his nose and said, "Up and down the Hou Mansion, the taste is really heavy!" These two thousand stones, a certain promise! ”
"Thank you Mengshuai, you are open-minded, you must be rich and lucky!" Lin Chong hurriedly thanked him, patted his forehead and said, "Look at my broken memory, the horse shed in the front yard of our house has been empty, and the Taoist priest said that there is no horse is unlucky, you are a good man to the end, send the Buddha to the west, and support me with a thousand war horses." ”
Ye Li stood up with a loud snort, a thousand war horses, at least 500,000 yuan according to the market price, Ye Li stared at Lin Chong viciously and gasped and asked, "Lin Hou, don't go too far!" ”
Lin Chong pretended to be strange and asked, "Military Master, did I have something excessively just now?" ”
Zhu Wu said honestly, "Hou Ye has always been respectful, more humble than a humble gentleman, there is nothing excessive." ”
Lin Chong laughed, "You can make a fool of yourself!" However, for the fierce handsome who is full of party names, there is still no need to go around in circles. ”
Turning back, he bared his teeth at Yeli and sneered, "If it weren't for the fact that you brought the old man over, I wouldn't be too lazy to waste time with you, don't get three points, **, open a dyeing workshop in front of Ben Hou!" ”
"Either take money or things, dare to be shoddy, lack of two catties, and you will really take the head back when the time comes." In addition, my caravan shall not be hindered in the future, if anyone dares to mess around, you will not deal with it, I will come myself!" ”
Lin Chong beckoned more coldly into the distance, "In order to deepen your impression, you won't come to Dongkou for nothing, please watch a good show!" ”
In the distance, the Song army hulala brought over ten steel cannons, and in front of four people, the artillery officers and soldiers demonstrated a set of standard operating procedures. Set up the cannon, adjust the angle, wipe the breech, reload the gunpowder, stuff the flowering shell, and add the fuse.
Lin Chong nodded, "Let's start!" ”
The artillery officer received the order and shouted to his subordinates with a small flag in high air, "Three, two, one, ignition!" ”
All ten guns were lit with fuses, and with the sneering sparks sank into the eye of fire, bang, bang! After a series of loud bangs, ten shells broke away from the breeches and smashed into a miscellaneous forest two miles away.
Lin Chong took out a tube of newly developed high-powered telescopes and watched with great interest as the grove fell into a sea of fire. Then hundreds of military horses rushed out with flames, and many people ran and jumped desperately, trying in vain to extinguish the flames on their bodies, but unfortunately in vain!
Ye Limeng's lungs were about to explode, this damn Lin Chong actually knew that he had ambushed three hundred cavalry in the grove. That was his own preparation, if the negotiation failed, he would be tough on Lin Chong and the Wild Wolf Army. Unexpectedly, in front of himself, he was turned into ashes by cannonballs.
Lin Chong asked, "Fierce Shuai, how powerful is our army's latest artillery?" ”
In the face of Lin Chong's arrogance, Ye Li Meng unintentionally praised, "Your artillery is really invincible!" ”
Lin Chong asked intentionally or unintentionally, "I heard that in the past, King Helian Bobo supervised the construction of Helian City, and even the soil was steamed, as hard as a rock, and it was known as unbreakable through the ages." The fierce commander said that the artillery is indestructible, please ask my artillery to hit your Helian City, what will happen? ”
Ye Limeng was choked and couldn't speak, he couldn't say it at all, isn't this a living contradiction.
Moreover, Lin Chong expressed his attitude bluntly. Don't talk to me crookedly, I'm too lazy to be serious with you now, otherwise what kind of city do you dare to claim to be unbreakable, let it taste my cannonballs?
Since Helian City can't stop my artillery fire, what Yanzhou and Xingqing Mansion are not in Benhou's bag!
Ye Limeng endured Lin Chong's blackmail while dripping blood from his heart, and finally reached a ceasefire agreement with difficulty.
In the agreement, the party not only promised to give the property and salt and horse photos. Moreover, as a punishment for the ambush of the woods, Lin Chong forced Ye Limeng to get a way, and finally realized Zhang Wan's idea.
In the southeast of Zizhou, a piece of land was forcibly demarcated, a mile wide special trade channel, from the east to the Song Dynasty, located at the junction of Huanzhou and Yanzhou. As for the cities around Dongkuo, they will not refuse the caravans of the Wild Wolf Army to enter the city for normal trade.
In return, Lin Chong only promised that he would not take the initiative to wage war against the party for three years.
Watching the exhausted Ye Li Meng and the angry Sawu leave, Lin Chong raised his hand and said, "It's easy to go, come back next time you have time, I still invite you to drink." ”
Nori shook his body violently and almost fell. "Lin Hou, forget it, I see that you have to live ten years less this time, it's better not to see you!"
After speaking, he whipped and urged the horse, took the eighteen knights, and left without dust.
