The appearance of "mutants" has made the situation worse, and it takes 300 lives to solve two mutants, with such an exchange ratio, 10,000 mutants can easily kill 3 million elite soldiers, if it is a settlement and ordinary people, the loss will be even greater.

However, it is not difficult to find from the expression of the royal guest that even though the strength, speed, jumping power, and self-healing ability of the living dead far exceed ordinary people, they do not seem to have an intellectual organization.

Since there are two mutants at the same time, assuming that there is still self-awareness, first of all, they should not kill the robe who is in the same boat, and secondly, they should not scatter and escape, but the two of them should flee together and then hide, instead of running away separately to attack the village and be broken by each one.

From this point of view, this kind of living dead man has no reason, no normal intelligence, and even is only driven by pure animal instinct, without the simple destruction of logical purposes. Therefore, as long as no one maliciously captures it and releases it centrally, it is unlikely that a cluster will attack the same large target at the same time.

But the problem also arises, since the armpit people have "immortal bodies", humans will be infected by their blood and go crazy mutate, it is obviously impossible to say that they are not aware of this phenomenon. If they knew, would they use this advantage to attack the human race, and if it was him Bailiyan, he would obviously do it. Further, there is no reason why an armpit person should not do so.

Since the answer is yes, then this war that may break out at any time, with the current technological foundation of the Central Plains, mankind has no chance of winning.

Since ancient times, the weapons of war have taken the greatest destruction of the enemy in the shortest time as the highest purpose, and it is no exaggeration to say that the problem can no longer be solved by relying on early guns alone, and machine guns, heavy artillery, tanks, airplanes, missiles, and even nuclear bombs are needed.

Thinking of this, Bai Liyan couldn't help but feel that God had made a big joke with him, if he was given another chance to be reborn, he would rather not have this ability, and be a flat-headed common man and go with the flow, how could it be stronger than being as rich and tired as a dead dog now.

After being silent for a long time, he turned around and said to Wei Qi again:

"Go to Yongxing immediately, and invite Mr. Zongbo and Mr. Zhao to come to my house."

"Yes!"

Many years ago, Zong Botai made a proverb, predicting that the Central Plains would be sinister and difficult to solve after more than ten years, and now it seems that the clues have verified this, and Bai Liyan has to start thinking about the worst, leaving him with little time.

Everything was as usual in the early dynasty, Bailiyan did not mention any news, and worked as always, sorting out the manuscript. There will be no results for a while, and the big families have to be careful and careful to marry, but there is no need to be in such a hurry to urge, and Bailiyan is not in a hurry to marry her daughter.

When I left the palace in the afternoon, I just arrived at Yongtai Gate, and I saw the carriage of the eldest grandson stopped on the royal road outside the palace, and the envoy Zhang Jie was waiting outside, and the envoy Chai Xiang was not seen.

Zhang Jiezu was in his early fifties, not very tall, with a somewhat dark skin, and a deep indigo silk coat, which did not look like he had any strengths.

Seeing Baili Yan leading the horse out of the palace, Zhang Jie stepped forward quickly with a courteous expression:

"Hehe, in the lower eldest grandson Zhang Jie, I have seen the Marquis of Yongxing."

Zhang Jie bowed very respectfully, but Bai Liyan was expressionless and pretended to be cold:

"Didn't Zhang envoy pass it on to Ben Hou, who was waiting here?"

"This envoy has been in Lingling for many days, and he has not had time to visit Yongxing Hou, and I hope Yongxing Hou will forgive me for the rudeness."

After Zhang Jie arrived in Xianguo as a special envoy, he has been active and lobbying, and has gone to the Prince's Mansion, Zhao Xun's Mansion, Lu Gao's Mansion, Nuoyiyan's Mansion, Dingyang's Mansion, Gaoxun's Mansion, Luhou's Mansion, and Xuanting's Mansion.

Thinking that he failed to convince Zhao Xun, Lu Gao and others, he finally had to come down to worship him Bailiyan's dock, not to mention the sincerity, with this attitude, Bailiyan definitely didn't give him a good face.

It is said that Bailiyan is the No. 1 heavyweight in Xianguo, even if Zhang Jie is not the first to come to worship the dock, he should not be the first to come to the dock, the reason for this is not only that Changsun Guo was proud that there was no one in the top secret weapons before, but also that there was a matter of raw silk last year.

Bailiyan pondered that Zhang Jie's coming here must have "figured it out", and came to lobby for bribes with him, so he brewed in his heart, and said in a flat tone:

"Zhang Envoy is here to lobby the Xianguo to send troops."

"Huh...... Exactly for this. Zhang Jie affirmed, looked left and right at the guards of the forbidden army, and then said: "This place is not very convenient, the envoy has prepared a thin banquet, and I hope that the Marquis of Yongxing will appreciate it." ”

"Alright then, I'll let you lead the way."

Bai Liyan didn't plan to refuse Zhang Jie's invitation, but if she refused, it would not be good for the lion to open his mouth. So he followed it all the way to the northeast and came to the bank of the Maple Grove River.

This Fenglin River more than 10 years ago is still a barren beach, there are very few households on both sides of the river, in the process of the rise of business in Chenling, a large number of restaurants and inns have been established on both sides of the Fenglin River and the music square, if you come by boat at night, the song of thousands of lights and warblers on both sides of the river is all intoxicating, quite a bit of the scenery of Qinhuai at night.

Zhang Jie intended to talk secretly, so the place arranged was not on the stage from the perspective of the world, and he set the place for the conversation in the open-air barbecue garden to avoid the noisy public place, and at the same time the entire barbecue garden was enclosed.

The name of the barbecue garden is "game yaki", but it is essentially barbecue, hot pot and catering, but it has been moved from indoor to outdoor pavilion, which is more suitable for barbecue. There is also a full kitchen and an indoor dining restaurant.

This open-air form of catering first appeared twelve years ago, after the southern expedition of Bailiyan, a large number of barbecue and hot pot entered the people, that is, after the veterans of the southern expedition were discharged, they used the plundered wealth to set up open-air barbecue stalls and hot pots by the Fenglin River.

During the period, it also received the technical and material support of Bailiyan, so the barbecue equipment and layout are almost exactly the same as the modern outdoor self-service barbecue, and I thought it was a self-service barbecue in a park somewhere.

Since then, the barbecue industry has developed into an integrated catering industry, and in the last five or six years, several have risen one after another, and game rooki is one of them. Because the plot is good and the environment is elegant, the people who come to burn the game are some celebrities.

Since it was a political affair, barbecue and hot pot naturally couldn't be elegant, so Zhang Jie ordered people to prepare exquisite dishes for tooth sacrifice.

"Hehe, Yongxing Hou, please use it."

"Well, this roasted game Benhou also often comes here for recreation, it is the beginning of summer, this towering tree is an excellent shade place, but compared to the winter and spring outing, summer is inevitably a little irritable."

Bailiyan took advantage of the four seasons to make her mind clear, and told Zhang Jie that today is not the time to talk, if you want to talk, you must have sincerity to make me comfortable, if you can't talk, you have to think about it.

Zhang Jie naturally heard this meaning, although he quickly disguised the discoloration on his face, he could see the slightly twitching cheeks and the extremely unnatural expression of concealing the stiffness.

He said:

"Yongxing Hou's former residence is ripe, Minoru a grass, a tree, a flower and a leaf, in the next new arrival, more to rely on the help of Lord Chai, if there is anything wrong today, I hope Yongxing Hou will forgive me."

"Ben Hou is not a person with a small amount of energy, how can he delay the affairs of the two countries because of choking and eating, Zhang made you say yes."

"Hehaha...... What Yongxing Hou said is that he really can't choke on food because of small losses. ”

Bailiyan has set the tone of the conversation for Zhang Jie, and Zhang Jie did not refuse but expressed his approval, so he repeated what Bailiyan said to express his affirmation. If it refuses, it will not repeat the statement and avoid mentioning it.

The next carving, Zhang Jie, simply pierced the window paper, and said:

"Let me make it clear that as long as the Marquis of Yongxing persuades the King of Xian to send troops to help, my king is willing to sell one hundred stones of Yongxing Hou Shengsi and five stones of high-grade jade material every year at the market price of our country, and open the sulfur to sell to the Xian country. What do you think? ”

"Hehe......" Bai Liyan smiled lightly, shook his head and said: "I haven't bought your country's sulfur for six years, and the jade jewelry Xianguo has everything. How about raising the raw silk to 1,500 stone in the Xianguo. ”

"What! Fifteen hundred stones! Zhang Jie was taken aback.

One stone in Xianguo is about 17 catties, three catties of raw silk can make about one catty of cooked silk, about one catty of two or three taels of cooked silk can weave a horse of silk cloth, one stone of raw silk can produce 30 horses of silk, or three to four horses of medium and high-quality silk, 1,500 stone of raw silk is 45,000 horses of silk, even if it is converted according to one inch of gold per horse, it is an income of 45,000 inches of gold a year, which is simply a lion's big mouth.

"Yongxing Hou, fifteen hundred stones is too much!"

Zhang Jie bargained, and Baili Yan smiled:

"Benhou buys raw silk in the market, instead of letting your country give it to Benhou, your country is profitable, Benhou is also profitable, since it is a business, how can there be a reason to buy less."

"But ......" Zhang Jie was speechless for a while, and it was really difficult for him to refute Bai Liyan's "bandit logic".

It is said that since it is a business, how can there be a reason for the seller to think that the buyer buys less. But raw silk is the only raw material for silk fabrics, and silk fabrics are now involved in commodity trading with gold, serving as a valuable currency. In particular, precious metals are scarce in the Central Plains, and copper coins cannot be purchased for large quantities of scarce materials, silk fabrics are a supplement to the currency transactions of precious metals and the rewards of the monarch.

Therefore, silk fabrics, especially high-grade silk fabrics, have a certain currency trading function, aside from the large amount of gold and silver obtained from the transaction between Changsun Guo and Mooney last year, Changsun Guo needs to spend a large amount of silk fabrics every year in exchange for foreign exchange and commodity inflows, so as to ensure financial balance and precious metal reserve income.

Baili Yan opened his mouth for 1,500 stone raw silk, and under the condition that the output and inflow of precious metals were relatively constant, the finances of Changsun Kingdom would be a large part less.

Therefore, even if the raw silk is not at a loss, the finances of the Changsun Kingdom are at a loss, and the huge amount of gold and silver benefits earned last year will be consumed by the war, and in less than two years, its treasury will be empty.
