Chapter 513: Suffering a Loss (Second Update)
The map that was completed by Xiang Yu was obviously much more detailed than the previous Yinggao sent people to draw, and Xiang Yu's memory was obviously very good, but almost all the cities on the scale were marked by Xiang Yu on the map, and this time, it was obviously very clear and clear.
Seeing that Yinggao was almost familiar with this map, Xiang Yu finally opened his mouth.
"What the king said, it is indeed a matter of course for Great Qin, attacking the Peacock Dynasty is the Great Qin organization, and finding the road to the Peacock Dynasty is also done by Great Qin, Great Qin wants Hua's City, and my Huns will naturally offer it with both hands. And I, the Huns, don't want half of the entire Mauryan Empire, I want to add a piece of land to the Huns, only this one. ”
After Xiang Yu said this, he walked around an area with his bare feet, and when he looked at it, the area Xiang Yu wanted was a raised area relatively close to the north after the Western Regions to the Peacock Dynasty.
The shape of this area is quite regular, and it is not surrounded by other areas, but the area is only one-third of the entire Mauryan area, and Fahrenheit City is just outside that area.
Ying Gao knew at a glance that this must have been calculated by Xiang Yu a long time ago, Xiang Yu didn't want Fahrenheit City at all, this was obviously done according to Ying Gao's requirements, after saying this, Xiang Yu looked at Ying Gao, obviously wanting to see his reaction.
Yinggao sighed slightly, knowing that although it seems that he has taken advantage of it now, Xiang Yu must let himself have some blood next, after all, there will never be a free lunch in the world, and Yinggao knows this more than anyone else.
"Alas, since Shan Yu said so, if my Daqin doesn't pay something, it will seem like I'm a little kid, this time the battle against Hua's City, according to Han Xin, is basically the credit of Shan Yu and Shan Yu's generals Long Ji, Shan Yu doesn't compete with me, and only takes a mere third of the territory, it's really not appropriate, Shan Yu wants me Daqin to pay something, I'm afraid Shan Yu has already thought about it in his heart, right?"
Xiang Yu is actually the first time to play such a heart, relying on his majestic body and very down-to-earth face, obviously Yinggao did not watch out for him, but at this time, it was obviously recognized by Yinggao, which made Xiang Yu a little embarrassed.
But as soon as he looked at Yinggao's appearance, he knew that although Yinggao might not be so happy in his heart, he was obviously still a person who was willing to gamble and lose, so Xiang Yu decided not to worry about his face for the time being, it was not too valuable after all.
"For the distribution of territory, my Huns do not have any doubts, Xiang Yu only has one thing to ask for here, the king is almost about to complete the straight road from Bashu to the Peacock Dynasty at this time, whether it is to let the people of the Peacock Dynasty go to the Western Regions or Daqin, or let the materials in the Peacock Dynasty be transported to Daqin, you can go all the way unimpeded, but my Huns do not master the way to build a straight road, Xiang Yu hereby implore the king to send some people to serve to help the Huns build a straight road between the Huns and the Mauryan Dynasty, otherwise, even if my Huns get one-third of the territory of the Mauryan Empire, it will be useless! ”
This time, Xiang Yu said all the big truths, the big truths that were not mixed with any water, he almost told Yinggao about the shortcomings of the Huns, and then threw out his own requirements.
Although it was said very politely, politely and Xiang Yu's appearance was a little disproportionate, but Yinggao translated this sentence, that is, you promised me before anyway, can you help you look at it yourself!
Yinggao is obviously difficult to ride a tiger at this time, he himself has built such a straight road in the Western Regions, in fact, it is very laborious, those who serve in the Western Regions to work, it is all lured by themselves with heavy rewards and benefits, so that they can build a straight road for Xiang Yu in vain that may be longer than the one in Daqin, although those who serve may not be too dissatisfied, but Yinggao always has a feeling that he was taken advantage of by Xiang Yu.
Seeing that Yinggao's face was red and white, all of which were hesitant, Xiang Yu simply gritted his teeth and opened his mouth again.
"In return, I am willing to sacrifice 10,000 of my Xiongnu's good horses for Daqin!"
Hiss......
When Yinggao heard this condition, he almost secretly took a breath of cool air, 10,000 war horses, for Daqin, it was equivalent to giving Yinggao 10,000 elite cavalry.
The Great Qin cavalry has not been able to develop for a long time, in the final analysis, there are too few war horses, whether it is from the perspective of horse breed or from the perspective of domestication technology, and the Huns are a heaven and an underground, and the horses that come out are almost less than one in ten that can become war horses, which is indeed a headache for Yinggao.
Now Xiang Yu's mouth is 10,000, I have to say that Yinggao is very surprised, because even if Xiang Yu doesn't say this condition, he should finally agree to him to build a straight road.
"In this case, it is naturally not good for me not to agree to Shan Yu, after all, Shan Yu and I have now signed an alliance, and they are out-and-out allies, but this matter of building a straight road, I can probably only send half of the manpower of my Great Qin before, and Shan Yu should also send a certain number of manpower, it is best to learn this matter of building a straight road, otherwise it will be on the territory of the Peacock Dynasty, after all, Shan Yu can't find someone from me every time he wants to build a straight road, right?"
"That's natural, with the words of the king, Xiang Yu began to raise manpower after returning to the Xiongnu court, and he must master the construction method of the straight road under the leadership of the craftsmen of Daqin, but there is one more thing ......"
"Oh? One more thing? As soon as Ying Gao heard these four words, his face was full of helplessness, what happened to Xiang Yu now, it stands to reason that he should be completely bad at doing such a cheeky thing to beg grandpa to tell grandma, what's wrong with it today?
"Don't panic, this matter is simple, because the language of the Mauryan Dynasty is very different from the language of the Central Plains, so the people under my command have not yet learned this language, but many scholars in Daqin have already been able to understand the meaning of this language, can you lend Xiang Yu one or two, and wait until the wise people in my Huns master this language, these two people will be returned to you."
Hearing that Xiang Yu's request was so simple, Yinggao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then agreed to Xiang Yu's matter, after all, language is nothing more than the difference between learning fast and learning slowly, even if you don't agree to Xiang Yu's request this time, people will definitely be able to learn this language in the end, and they will offend people for no reason, right?
"It's easy to talk about this matter, I will explain it to Han Xin in the next letter, maybe by the next time Shan Yu arrives in the land of the Mauryan Empire, all the people under your command will already know the language of the Mauryan Dynasty."
Seeing this, Yinggao agreed without a little pressure, and did not knock on the bamboo, Xiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
At this point, Xiang Yu's main problems here have all been solved, and the most important thing is that he has confirmed one thing through Yinggao's performance, which is also a very immature guess in his heart before, a guess that determines how he will do it in the future.
According to the rules of survival in this era, it is nothing more than the law of the jungle, today's Great Qin and Xiongnu, just like the Qin State and the Qi State during the Warring States Period, when the Great Qin killed all the other five vassal states, even if it was an ally before the Qi State, but it could only be said sorry to the Qi State, and then the Qi State was destroyed with one hand.
That's why Xiang Yu really knows too well, it's nothing more than that the Qi State has completely lost any use value for Great Qin, and the worthless ally Great Qin naturally won't keep it anymore, and if it stays until the end, it will definitely have the possibility of becoming an enemy.
And the current Great Qin and the Xiongnu, in Xiang Yu's opinion, are very similar to the original Great Qin and Qi State, and now Yinggao wants to kill himself, there are no less than a hundred ways to destroy the Xiongnu, and he will be completely helpless at that time.
But now it is obvious that Yinggao not only did not do this, but he has completely fulfilled what he promised himself in the covenant before, and he also agreed to his own request.
This series of actions are telling Xiang Yu that Yinggao is obviously not a philanthropist, let alone his good brother, he can only do this for one purpose, that is, he must have a very large use value for him, and this value will not be reflected in any other place, but only in the war.
And now that the Peacock Dynasty has basically ceased to exist, and Daqin has stationed nearly 200,000 troops in the Peacock Dynasty, it is not difficult to defend the Peacock Dynasty, but Yinggao still needs himself, which means that there is not only one Peacock Dynasty in the place where Yinggao wants to attack.
There may be other dynasties waiting for Yinggao to conquer very close or very far away from the Peacock Dynasty, but Yinggao feels that the battle line of a Great Qin is too long and it is a bit difficult to solve the problem alone, which is why he firmly tied his ally to himself.
Although Xiang Yu has already understood this problem, he naturally can't show any clues in front of Yinggao, Yinggao compared with him, the only disadvantage is that Yinggao can't lead his own sergeants to rush in front of the formation, he can only command in the rear, and this rear should only be Daqin's Xianyang City.
That is to say, no matter where Daqin's army hits in the future, it is impossible for Yinggao to follow, which will cause a delay in his acquisition of information, in this case, Xiang Yu, who will always be able to obtain first-hand information in person for the first time, will definitely have a chance to get rid of Yinggao's shackles, although he also knows that this day should be far away from this time, but he also believes that this day will come after all.
That night, Xiang Yu and Ying Gao discussed a lot of things about the Peacock Dynasty, for his Hun brothers, Ying Gao did not hide too much of his heart, he gave Xiang Yu a series of guidance, what he did was naturally to let Xiang Yu control the situation of the Peacock Dynasty faster.
Xiang Yu was still so clean and neat in nature, so early the next morning, Xiang Yu directly bid farewell to Yinggao, disappeared directly at the gate of Xianyang City, and went directly to the direction of the Great Wall.
After Xiang Yu left, Ying Gao immediately called Han Xin to his main hall, after all, since they came back, Ying Gao still didn't know in detail what happened in the Peacock Dynasty, as well as the monarch of the Peacock Dynasty, Relic Yijia, and Xu Fu, who was famous in later generations, he was still very curious.
This time I was summoned, Han Xin seemed to be telling a story, and he told Yinggao for an hour or two that Yinggao was reluctant to give up, and finally said that Han Xin was called a dry mouth.
After listening to Han Xin's statement, Yinggao was a little disappointed, the relics were the monarch of the Peacock Dynasty, in fact, in essence, they were exactly the same as themselves, and according to the laws and systems of the Peacock Dynasty, the status of the relics was even more respected than himself.
But the monarch of such a centralized dynasty turned out to be such a wreck, which really made Yinggao a little incomprehensible, if he was a person in the position of the relics and the Buddha, he would definitely not let his dynasty fall to such a point.
And Xu Fu, Ying Gao felt a little ridiculous, according to Xu Fu's statement to Han Xin, he paralyzed the relics and tricked him into attacking Daqin with an army of 150,000, and according to Xu Fu's estimate, the estimate that the army of 150,000 could survive to Daqin is not much, and it will definitely be destroyed by the people of Daqin in the end.
So although he didn't find the immortal mountain that the first emperor asked for at the beginning, in essence, he still made meritorious contributions to Daqin, and although the final result didn't have much to do with him, he felt that he had no merit and hard work, didn't he?
But it's okay for him to fool Han Xin with this, Ying Gao knew that this guy was shirking his responsibility when he heard it, it was obviously a premeditated escape, and he even let him say that it was for Da Qin, such a talent would have already been sentenced to death in Ying Gao's heart.
"Xu Fu will be imprisoned in prison for a while, after all, this guy is still very proficient in the language of the Peacock Dynasty, and if you want to communicate with the relics, you have to rely on him, right?" Ying Gao thought for a while and gave such an order to Han Xin.
