Chapter 972: Coaxing and Deception
();
Baili Yan gestured back and forth, but Xiao Gongyi, who was watching, was shocked, and he pointed to the east-west continent north of Changsun Country and hurriedly asked:
"It's so close, Yongxing Hou, can you be sure!"
"Be sure. However, this thing may not be accurate, it is estimated from the map that the land north of Changsun Kingdom should be 12,000 miles away from Haitian County, and it can be reached by boat in two to three months, and it is less than two round-trips a year, and more than three round-trips. If the armpit people use this as a foundation to transport troops to our Central Plains, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable.
In addition, judging from the map, there are fifteen princes in the continent where the axillary people are located, and the size of their land is conservatively estimated to be twice that of the Weiguo, so the situation is extremely unoptimistic. If it exerts all the strength of the whole country to invade the Central Plains in the south, with the current situation, our Central Plains will be difficult to parry, and it will be a catastrophe. ”
At this time, Luo Ji questioned:
"How can Yongxing Hou know that the armpit man is 12,000 miles away from me just through this ball?"
"This ......" Baili Yan paused, quite tricky.
With Luo Ji's knowledge, he obviously doesn't know the concept of scale, and secondly, the diameter and circumference of the planet have been roughly calculated, so as long as the 100 equal parts divided by the planetary and the size of the planetary are divided, an approximate distance can be calculated.
Moreover, the axillary people should have roughly estimated the size of the planet, so the conversion principle of this ratio is no problem. But it is obviously impossible to give this principle to Luo Ji and others, and let them understand.
After a quick thought, he went on to say:
"This is a method of counting and extrapolating, which is very complicated, but it is generally not wrong."
"In this way, it is only a rough speculation of Yongxing Hou."
Luo Ji expressed doubts, which made Bai Liyan very nervous, and it was obviously unrealistic to make an old man with no scientific ideas believe in scientific theories. At this time, Su Fangxin interjected:
"Master Luo can rest assured, Yongxing Hou is proficient in astronomical and geographical calculations, and it is not difficult to roughly calculate the distance through this ball map, and Su can guarantee this."
"Oh, the Soviet military division thinks that what Yongxing Hou said is true?"
Luo Ji was skeptical, and then Xiao Gongyi said:
"There is some deviation in the distance estimate, tens of thousands of miles, and it is inevitable to check hundreds of thousands of miles. However, Master Luo can rest assured that the matter of the armpit man is not a joke, even if it is thousands of miles away, but the armpit man is well-armed, kills people very much, and is rare in ancient times, and what Yongxing Hou said is definitely not intimidation. ”
What Bai Liyan said before is somewhat exaggerated, firstly, it is impossible for the planetary instrument to completely restore the appearance of the planet, secondly, the distortion of the landform is inevitable, and the third-Yuncang faction is a big fat sheep, if it can take this opportunity to pull it to his side, it is undoubtedly advantageous.
And the Yuncang faction guards the mountains of rare treasures, if an unwarranted disaster is destroyed in one fell swoop, there will be no place to reason at that time.
Therefore, in order to dispel the illusion that the Yuncang faction relied on Liang Guo, it was also necessary to exaggerate and intimidate.
The atmosphere at the scene immediately became agitated, and the elders of the Yuncang faction and Luo Ji quickly exchanged opinions, and it seemed that there were still big differences.
"Master Xiao, it is rumored that the armpit eyes are brutal and cannibalistic, and they can't be killed, but this is true?"
Luo Ji asked, and Xiao Gongyi affirmed:
"This matter is true, I sent to capture two witnesses, and they are in the main hall, and you might as well send someone to see it in the future, and one of them escaped into the eldest grandson for 18 years, and can speak the Central Plains dialect, and your faction will know as soon as you ask."
"Then why doesn't the Son of Heaven believe it?"
When Luo Ji said this, Xiao Gongyi was full of Xiao Suo, he said:
Xiao has advised the Son of Heaven several times, but the Son of Heaven thinks that the world is from the East China Sea to the West Sea, from the North Sea to Jin Xuedi, and beyond the four seas are vast seas, and there is no longer a place to transform into a foreign world, so the Son of Heaven does not believe that there is an outer world in the north of the Central Plains, so it is very difficult to do it at the moment. Only Yongxing Hou alone helped, if he suffered a catastrophe in the future, the Central Plains may be in danger.
Don't hide from Luo, the armpit people and the navy are very powerful, and hundreds of thousands of stones, 20,000 stones, and even 30,000 stone gunboats are dispatched, and the capital of the Liang State is near the sea, if you go south along the coast of Changsun all the way in the future, the Liang State will not escape the doom, and your faction should prepare early, and it will be late to do so. ”
As soon as the words came out, the people of the Yuncang faction suddenly exploded, and the door master Chu Shiyuan said:
"According to what Master Xiao said, armpit people are as fierce as beasts, and they can't be killed, so don't I even have the strength to parry in the Central Plains?"
Xiao Gongyi twisted the long beard of his jaw and shook his head and said:
"I'm afraid it's going to be tough. Thousands of miles away from the northwest of my Central Plains, there is a huge land, the local armor is slightly more elite than my Central Plains, with a population of tens of millions, and it has been killed almost extinct in just 25 years. ”
Cold weapons and firearms are actually clear at a glance, but the Central Plains is not yet the Manchu government, and all vassal states have a perfect military system, skilled tactical literacy, fierce infantry impact, and even strong crossbows, sky-high crossbows, and car crossbows that are enough to cover 200 steps away, supplemented by rudimentary artillery gunpowder.
As long as we clearly understand the power and effectiveness of early black powder weapons and make full use of people's subjective initiative, theoretically speaking, there is still a chance to give it a go.
But the problem is that now we are not facing human beings, not Western colonizers, armpit people, monsters that will not die and can heal themselves, and whose strength ratio is three times greater than yours, and it is a regular army that is organized, disciplined, coordinated by the government, and coordinated and armed, which is very difficult to do.
To defeat such an opponent, even if the technical conditions are completely equal, human beings may not be the opponents of armpit people, not to mention that they are now two generations behind others.
The atmosphere fell silent for a while, and the people of the Yuncang faction changed their fierce disagreements and began to tend to believe in Xiao Gongyi's words, Luo Ji listened to the opinions of all parties, reorganized the language, and said solemnly:
Although all the princes in the world do not believe it, but the old man thinks that there are few people who know reason in this world, and there are many fallacies, since Xiao Zhangmen and Yongxing Hou are convinced that this matter is true, the old man and the elders of this door agreed that this matter would rather be believed than believed.
Therefore, our faction decided that if the armpits invaded the Central Plains in the future and joined hands to resist the enemy, our faction would have an unshirkable responsibility. But whatever we can, we will help the two.
As for what Yongxing Hou discussed with the Lord of Chumen earlier, the old man decided to break this case, but wherever it is useful to me, Yongxing Hou can just open his mouth. ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, it's inconvenient to be in the court in the lower body, and you are all people from outside the world, how dare you send your faction in the lower body."
Bai Liyan pretended to refuse, Luo Ji changed his words, and suddenly became serious:
"Yongxing Hou, don't be busy refusing, this faction naturally can't help your country in vain. The old man believes that the head of Xiao is so important to Your Excellency, and there is the help of the Ligong faction, so he must have great power to come to Yongxing. Since this faction is helping you, I also hope that your strength will be sparing in the future to help our faction protect the lives of the whole family. ”
"Master Luo, please rest assured, as long as Ben Hou still has a breath, the affairs of your faction are the affairs of Ben Hou, but if there are difficulties, Ben Hou will never stand idly by."
The conquest of the princes usually does not cause the extinction of the sect, and only when the world changes the dynasty in chaos will the rise and fall of a hundred schools of thought be lost.
In history, there are countless sects that have disappeared because of the chaos in the world, and the Yuncang faction does not rely on strategy, force, and ideology to base itself on the Central Plains, but relies on its own financial resources.
In a sense, the chaos caused by the southern invasion of the armpit people is more serious than the internal turmoil of the human race, when the princes are busy preparing for war, and the Yuncang faction will become a big household for the princes to raise money and food.
At the beginning, it was borrowing, but when the war continued to expand and the finances could not make ends meet, borrowing could no longer solve the problem, so they could only grab it. Sensei said that the store in Waifu could not escape, but I am afraid that Liang Guo himself will not be able to protect himself, and it will be sooner or later to attack the Yuncang faction in disguise.
Bai Liyan can think of this, Luo Ji, as the world's number one "power eye", can see more clearly than anyone else, and he will not know the truth that the cannon is ten thousand taels of gold.
After the three parties agreed on the mutual assistance agreement in detail, Luo Ji said again:
"Since the three parties have decided, the old man has a reluctant request, and I hope that Yongxinghou can do a small favor."
As soon as these words came out, Bai Liyan suddenly thought in her heart: "You have only written a few checks that have not been cashed, and now you have to put forward the conditions immediately, which is too fine." ”
Even if he thought so in his heart, he couldn't react on his face, and no one knew if this was Luo Ji's stone-throwing to test the depth of the water, in case he had concerns, the tacit understanding he had just reached would come to naught in a blink of an eye. So I still had to pretend to be very happy and nodded in agreement:
"Luo is in charge, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"Yongxinghou also knows that our faction makes profits by pawning and lending money, and now that your country is rich in the world, our faction also wants to have a place in the troubled times in the future, so can Yongxinghou be accommodating and authorize my faction to operate a money shop business in your country."
"Money Fang!" Bai Liyan was shocked when he heard this, this old thing's feelings were to deceive his sympathy.
The business of this state-owned money shop is getting better and better, and it rashly squeezes into a private bank to get a piece of the pie, not to mention what impact it has on the market, and King Xian may not agree. State-owned banks are the lifeblood of the country, and at present, the market and banking system are not yet perfect, and a foreign sect wants to open a private bank.
After weighing it repeatedly, Bai Liyan didn't intend to respond immediately, he said tentatively:
"There are a lot of national capitals involved in the Xianguo Money Fang, and they need to follow a complex code system, and your faction makes a living by pawning money lending, and the rules are very different from my money Fang, I don't know how the head of Luo is going to run the money shop."
In fact, the old man knows that the business of the money shop is very prosperous, especially the Xianguo money shop. Two years ago, the old man asked the Son of Heaven to open a money shop, but the Son of Heaven did not approve it at that time, because the money shop was very profitable, and the princes of all countries did not want outsiders to intervene.
Thinking about it, even if Yongxing Hou agreed, King Xian might not be able to agree, such a difficult thing, the old man naturally can't do it. ”
Bai Liyan was puzzled when she listened, and hurriedly asked:
"What did the head of Naluo mention about the money shop?"
"In fact, Yongxing Hou's vision can be broader. Your country's money workshop is based on absorbing the money of the rich and the people, and then uses this capital to lend and borrow, and even build a large number of civil projects and water conservancy. With Qianfang, the treasury can save money in good years, replenish it in disaster years, and borrow money from Qianfang in the year of chaos.
But Yongxinghou thought about it, some money could not be borrowed from the money shop, and some people were unwilling to deposit money in the money shop, but preferred to lend money on their own. The reason for this is that private lending is more profitable, and private lending is more convenient and has a wider range of sources.
And my Yuncang faction can have today, that is, to borrow money from all parties, and then lend it, and then recover the principal and interest, so as to make profits.
Therefore, I set up a money shop to raise money from all parties to lend it out, and then collect it so that I could make a profit from it. ”
"I see, Ben Hou understands." I want to chat about "Empire Travel" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
