Kui Qi did not blame Sultan for interjecting, but nodded approvingly: "Yes, His Royal Highness King Zhennan, now it is your Ming Empire and the Ottoman Empire that are invading our Persian Safavid Empire, please withdraw your troops immediately." “

Zheng Zhilong didn't know what was wrong with it, he just said that these two people were singing and harmonizing, withdrawing troops? Just playing tricks is like the withdrawal of troops from the Ming Dynasty and the Ottoman Empire, that's a dream!

He said solemnly: "We are defending and counterattacking, you know, you must compensate for all the losses caused in this process." “

Qi Qi is so angry in his heart, are you so defensive and counterattacking, without saying hello, he rushed directly to beat the 200,000 troops of my Persian Empire to only half of them, not to mention, but also ran for hundreds of miles, and hit the city of Farah, this is called defense? Is this called a counterattack?

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he just wanted to flip the table and scold people, but the situation was stronger than people, and the Ming Empire was not something that the Persian Empire could provoke in the first place, and with an Ottoman Empire, they couldn't afford to provoke it.

He had to suppress his anger and helplessly explained: "His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan, we don't want to go to war with the Ming Empire and the Ottoman Empire, this is a complete misunderstanding. “

Misunderstand? If the Ming Dynasty can't mobilize troops and can't call allies, then you don't want to fight to Delhi, Zheng Zhilong pursed his lips and said stiffly: "No matter what, you have caused huge losses to our Ming Empire and the Ottoman Empire, and we will never withdraw our troops if we do not compensate for the losses." “

Qi Qi also knew that everyone had hit the doorstep, and it was impossible for them to withdraw without giving some benefits, so he had to say helplessly: "His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan, this is really a misunderstanding, but since the misunderstanding has been caused, we are willing to make appropriate concessions to eliminate this misunderstanding." “

Concession? Zheng Zhilong was a little puzzled, what is concession, is it a misunderstanding of the translation, is this a euphemism for compensation?

He tentatively said: "This misunderstanding is very deep, it is difficult to clear it, how much concession are you willing to make?" “

Hearing this, he gritted his teeth and begged for the whole way: "Didn't the Ming Empire always want to build a railway, pass through our Persian Empire, and go straight to the Ottoman Empire?" Now we agree to the railway crossing, you can repair it as you like, we will not interfere, so it's always okay, right? “

If you agree sooner, there will be nothing, and now it's too late!

After delaying for so long, and sending troops in a vain attempt to attack Kandahar, it is a dream to make such a small concession and want the Ming Empire and the Ottoman Empire to withdraw their troops.

Zheng Zhilong shook his head slowly and said: "No, no, no, no, in view of the performance of your Persian Empire, our Ming Empire can no longer trust you, in order to ensure the safety of the railway line, you must assign the land within a hundred miles along the railway line to the Ming Empire and the Ottoman Empire, and we will govern it ourselves." “

Hearing this, he looked at Zheng Zhilong dumbfounded, isn't this nakedly letting the Persian Empire cede land.

If there is a little bit of land, it is just that, from Kandahar to the border of the Ottoman Empire is more than 5,000 miles, how much land is that!

It was a dream to get the Persian Empire to cede so much land, and he shook his head resolutely: "That's impossible!" “

No way? Zheng Zhilong didn't bother to talk to him, and continued to threaten: "Also, do you want your fifty or sixty thousand captives, for so many days, they can consume a lot of our food, if you want, convert the food they consume into silver, compensate us, and then pay some money to redeem them, otherwise, we will kill them, but we don't care about burying them!" “

Hearing this, his face changed, that is fifty or sixty thousand people, if he doesn't pay for redemption, and let the Ming Empire kill them all, the families of those soldiers must not go crazy to find him for revenge!

These 50,000 or 60,000 people must not be killed by the Ming Empire, otherwise he will not only fail to be the prime minister, but even lose his life.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan, then you say, how much money is needed?" “

Hey, hey, hey, I scared you to death when I said it, Zheng Zhilong said seriously: "There is a precedent for this, last time the Netherlands ransomed 20,000 prisoners from our Ming Empire, and our offer was 10,000 taels, and 20,000 people were 200 million taels of silver." “

When Qi Qi heard this, his frightened eyes were about to pop out, 10,000 taels of one, 60,000 people is not 600 million taels of silver, and it doesn't cost so much to sell the Persian Empire!

Zheng Zhilong admired the strange expression with a bad taste, and then continued: "In the end, after negotiation, the Netherlands paid a total of 20 million taels of ransom, that is, 1,000 taels of one. In this way, we don't have to negotiate, just calculate according to the price given by the Netherlands, 60,000 people and 60 million taels, pay the money with one hand and pay the people with the other. “

The Persian Empire can't take out 60 million taels, and Qi Qi said in an almost desperate tone: "His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan, we really can't take out 60 million taels." “

When Zheng Zhilong heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised: "You can't take out 60 million taels?" “

It's not that he deliberately humiliates him, not to mention 60 million taels, he can make it up, he really can't understand why the Persian Empire can't take out 60 million taels of such a large territory.

Strange words, ashamed don't know what to say, the Ming Empire is indeed rich, but their Persian Empire is not the Ming Dynasty!

Of course, Zheng Zhilong's main purpose was not to make the Persian Empire pay compensation, the emperor didn't ask him to make money, he thought about it, pretended to be pitiful: "If you don't have money, you can take the land to compensate, we can suffer a loss, just add another hundred miles, as long as you give up the land within two hundred miles along the railway, we will not only withdraw the army, but also return all the prisoners to you?" “

A hundred miles is not enough, and it is still two hundred miles, and Qi Qi shook his head resolutely again: "His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan, that is impossible. “

When Zheng Zhilong heard this, his eyes narrowed, and he said gloomily: "Since we can't talk about it, then forget it, Prime Minister, please go back, and we'll see you in Isfahan!" “

When he heard this, he was stunned on the spot, which means that he wanted to hit Isfahan directly and destroy the Persian Empire!

Whoever bears this sin of destroying the country is willing to bear it.

However, thinking of the terrifying artillery and terrifying lineup of the Ming Empire, Qi Qi knew that if the Ming Empire did not count the casualties, it would only be a matter of time before the Persian Empire was destroyed.

The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became, the disaster of destroying the country was just around the corner, and if it was not good, the Persian Empire would really be over.

Thinking of this, he had to pull down his face and said in an almost pleading tone: "His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan, two hundred miles is too much, can it be less?" “

Finally confessed, Zheng Zhilong felt proud for a while, he pretended to be compassionate, and sighed: "Alas, then a hundred miles, no less, otherwise I won't be able to explain to His Majesty the Emperor." “

What else can Qi Qi say, it is not uncommon for the Persian Empire to cede land for survival, even Abbas the Great has cut land for survival and development, and it is just facing an Ottoman Empire, this time it is the Ottoman Empire and a more powerful Ming Empire.

In the end, he had to nod helplessly, it's not terrible to cut the land, it's terrible to lose the country!
