"So?"

"You quit the Holy Roman Empire and lend me the way to the Yan Kingdom. When our Yan Kingdom defeats the Holy Roman Empire, I will give you forty percent! ”

Yang Qi said very angrily, and the cost of borrowing the Tao was mentioned by forty percent in one go, which was far more than what Cao Zhe and the two families gave when they borrowed the Tao.

When Zhi Yuqing heard this, instead of being happy, he jumped to his feet and said, "No! ”

Yang Qi pursed his lips, "In the end, you are still reluctant to give up the fat of the Holy Roman Empire. Since you are reluctant and have no ability to eat, and you need my help, then I want seventy percent, not too much, right? ”

Zhi Yuqing's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word.

People are like this, there are some things that they can't get by themselves, but after remembering them, they naturally feel that they are his.

It's a delusion.

The Ori family is in this illusion.

I can't eat it myself, so I have to take it.

If it weren't for the fact that the Holy Roman Empire was too far away from the Yan Kingdom, Yang Qizhi could consider incorporating it into the territory of the Yan Kingdom.

Yang Qi looked at Zhi Yuqing and didn't speak, and he didn't speak.

This kind of thing is not good to buy and sell, and it requires the consent of both parties.

After a while, Zhi Yuqing raised his head and said with a bitter face: "Qilang, can you discuss, seventy percent is too much." You also know that the Great Jin Dynasty seems to be vast, but half of it is bitter cold land, and one-third is sandy soil, and only one-third of the usable land is used.

Therefore, after conquering the Holy Roman Empire, if you want to manage and build new land, you need to use the captured war booty.

If you take seventy percent at once, then even if we take the Holy Roman Empire, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to gain a firm foothold. ”

Speaking of which, Yang Qi's goal was also achieved, and he said with a smile: "I can reduce the seventy percent seizure to thirty percent, but I need you to help me make up for the forty percent missing." ”

Zhe Yuqing was happy at first, and then said worriedly: "How to reissue?" ”

Yang Qi said leisurely: "The northeast of Fuzhou, up to the polar region, all of them will be given to me Yan Kingdom." ”

Zhi Yuqing stood up suddenly, and exclaimed in disbelief: "You want to let me cut the soil of the Great Jin Kingdom?" ”

Yang Qi pulled Zhi Yuqing to sit down again, and said, "You just said it yourself, half of the entire Great Jin Kingdom is a bitter cold land. Anyway, it's not much use for you to keep it there, so you might as well give it to me.

Exchange a piece of bitter cold land for a huge and rich place, and you will earn a lot of money. ”

Zhi Yuqing gritted his teeth and said, "That's what my uncle and I fought with a knife and a gun." ”

Yang Qi rolled his eyes, "To help you fight the Holy Roman Empire, don't you want to fight with a knife and a gun?" ”

Zhi Yuqing said fiercely: "You are taking advantage of the fire to rob!" ”

Yang Qi smiled: "Then do you promise or not?" ”

Zhe Yuqing's face was cloudy, and after a while, he hesitated: "You also said just now, those places are bitter cold places, with your unprofitable temperament, why do you stare at the bitter cold land?" Are you hiding something from me? ”

Yang Qi shook his head, "It is indeed a bitter cold place, and I didn't hide anything from you." I want that place, just so that the entire northeast of Yan Country is free of flaws.

This is a strategic need, not a development need. ”

Zhi Yuqing did not let go, he always felt that there was fraud in this.

Yang Qi proposed: "If you can't make up your mind, you can write to my uncle and ask him." ”

Zhi Yuqing glanced at him and said, "That's what I mean." ”

After the final purpose was placed on the negotiation table, Yang Qi did not stay in the post station for long.

After Yang Qi left, Zhen Yuqing hurriedly repaired a book and sent it to Fuzhou quickly.

When Yang Qi returned to the imperial study, Kou Zhun was already waiting for him inside.

"The folded family agreed?"

After Kou Zhun gave the salute, he asked.

Yang Qi said with a smile: "Eight or nine is not far from ten." ”

Kou Zhun also laughed, "In this way, my Yan Kingdom will have no flaws in the northeast." The Jin Kingdom has already taken care of those unnecessary troubles for us, and we just need to recuperate in these places. ”

After Yang Qi returned to the dragon case, he sat down and smiled: "It's not that simple. Before the people of the folded family evacuated, they would definitely empty the people inside and leave a piece of bare land for us. Maybe we won't even have cattle, sheep and horses left.

Chances are we get a bitter cold land with nothing. ”

Kou Zhun smiled: "What's so difficult about this, the most important thing in my Yan country now is the people." Decrees to encourage childbearing have been implemented, and the popularity of medical centers in various places has greatly improved the survival rate of newborn children, and the population is growing exponentially.

We just need to migrate some people over. ”

Yang Qi shook his head and said, "You think it's simple, the bitter cold of that place is far beyond your imagination." Not everyone can gain a foothold in that area. It was inevitable that the people would move in the past, but the people in the south would certainly not be able to adapt to life there.

So, we need to draw people from the man to enrich the north, and then we need to draw people from the north to enrich those places.

The university hall and the army should be the first to be dispatched to clean up the places suitable for the people to live.

At the same time, most of the decrees of the Yan Kingdom are not easy to use when they reach that part.

So we have to make new laws according to the situation.

Moreover, although the land in the bitter cold land is large, our crops here are not suitable for growing there, so we have to find a way to find new seeds.

In addition, the yield of crops in the bitter cold land is extremely low, so the yield of the fields distributed to the people must be more than ten times larger than that in the hinterland of the Central Plains. ”

The smile on Kou Zhun's face disappeared, and he frowned: "So troublesome? Since it's so troublesome, it's better not to have that place, just for the needs of the northern barrier, you only need to be in the north to do more elite soldiers. ”

Yang Qi shook his head again, "There will never be a useless place in this world, only a lack of people who find them useful." Although there is no way to grow crops, it is rich in forests, minerals, and furs. There are also many precious mountain and forest herbs.

When the people went, it was enough to survive by cutting down, mining, and hunting. ”

Yang Qi paused and said, "Of course, these are all secondary. The fundamental reason why I won that piece was to clear all the obstacles of the Yan Kingdom in the north.

As long as we control that place.

The entire northeast of Yan is connected, and beyond the northeast, there is either the polar region or the vast ocean, and they will form a kind of natural barrier to ensure that the northeast of my Great Yan is worry-free.

In the future, if we have enemies in the Great Yan Kingdom, they must come from the west or the south.

Of the four gates, we closed two of them, and the remaining two were much easier to arrange. ”

Kou Zhun nodded as he thought.

Yang Qi smiled: "Of course, there is another reason, and that is to dredge the road." In the future, if my Yan Kingdom can overcome the bitter cold, it can span from the northeasternmost position to another piece of land.

After all, if the laborers go on an expedition across the sea, some of the gains outweigh the losses.

The world map has gradually been filled in, so I don't need to tell you how big that piece is, right? ”

Kou Zhun nodded, and then said with a wry smile: "Is this question a little too early to think?" Today's Yan Kingdom has reached the limit of what we can control, and if we expand our territory, I'm afraid we won't be able to manage it. ”

Many people always feel that the bigger the territory, the better, and the more people who manage it, the better.

Not really.

The larger the territory, although it can show the strength of a country.

But the manpower is poor, and the arms are not so long, so there will always be places that cannot be managed, and eventually become a place of chaos.

Or for some places that are too barren, financial and material resources are frequently consumed.

In the case that the Internet has not yet appeared, the territory of a country is beyond thousands of miles, and it is difficult to have jurisdiction in place.

The territory of the Yuan Dynasty was large enough and strong enough.

But it was precisely because the territory was too large to be managed, which led to the rapid collapse of the Yuan Dynasty.

Of course, the brutal rule of the Yuan Dynasty is also an important reason.

However, it can be seen from this aspect.

The larger the territory, the smaller the binding force, and in the end, the cheaper can only be someone else.

A small country and a widow are the best to rule.

But Yang Qi will not give up the land for no reason, or divide it.

Therefore, in order to achieve his goal of making the Han family dominant, he indirectly supported the Zhe and Cao families to become dominant.

Anyway, with the current national strength and almost zero scientific and technological capabilities, it is difficult for Yang Qi to rule the world.

The idea of world domination in ancient times is not very realistic.

What Yang Qi has to do is to let the Han family occupy the dominance of the world, and wait until one day when technology can reach the level of global governance, whether it is to make a move to unify the world.

In the end, this planet will always be dominated by the Han family.

Yang Qi's approach is more like a prototype of establishing the sun never sets.

It's just that what he did was not to build an empire on which the sun never sets, but to build a nation on which the sun never sets.

No matter how powerful an empire is, there will always be a time to wither.

All the mighty empires that have ever existed in the history of the world can verify this.

But once a strong nation is formed, it will never wither.

The tenacity of the Han family, as well as the spirit of passing on the torch, coupled with the aggressiveness given by Yang Qi, no one can stop it.

……

The speed of Zhe Yuqing's letter to Dajin was very fast, and the speed of Dajin's reply was also very fast.

There was only one word in the reply letter.

Can!

Zhi Yuqing pinched the letter and stared at the word in a daze, a little stunned.

He couldn't understand why his brother didn't think much about it.

The matter of ceding land was agreed to so quickly.

So when he took the letter and entered the palace, and when he saw Yang Qi's confident appearance, he asked the doubts in his heart.

"Nephew, you expected that your uncle would agree to this?"

Yang Qi smiled and said, "Why don't you agree?" Exchanging a piece of useless land for a rich place is a sure-fire deal. ”

Zhi Yuqing shook his head, he pouted, and said in a deep voice: "I don't think so, I think there must be something else in this." You tell your uncle, don't let him guess. ”

Yang Qile was happy, pondered for a while, and confessed: "Actually, it's not a big deal. I did this with my uncle, but I made a vague covenant. ”

"What covenant?"

Yang Qi explained: "As the founding monarch of the country, whether it is me or my uncle, everything I do may become the law of our ancestors in the future and be passed down forever.

Today, the Jin State conquered the Holy Roman Empire, borrowed troops from the Yan State, and used money and land as resources.

In other days, whether the Yan country is in trouble or the Jin country is in trouble, it is natural to follow this method and ask the other party for help.

In this way, there will be no such thing as sitting back and watching the other person perish.

More importantly, if the two countries have a conflict in the future and have to rely on violence to resolve it, there is also an additional choice. ”

"Cut the land, admit defeat, and avoid fighting each other?"

Zhi Yuqing asked stunned.

Yang Qi nodded.

Zhi Yuqing said with a dark face: "Yan Guo is strong, at that time, it will definitely be your Yan State bullying our Jin Kingdom." Are you preparing for the annexation of the Jin Kingdom? ”

Yang Qi couldn't cry or laugh, "Uncle! You're making a bit of a fuss! When I am in power, I can guarantee that Yan will be strong, but what if I am no longer in power?

Who won't have a bad offspring?

Do you think that if the Yan Kingdom is always strong, the successors of the Yan Kingdom in the future will be extremely wise; And the successor after the Jin Kingdom will be extremely mediocre? ”

Zhi Yuqing shook his head, "That's definitely not it." ”

Yang Qi rolled his eyes and said, "That's not over!" ”

After the two uncles and nephews finalized the final details of the troops.

Yang Qi ordered the soldiers and horses to begin preparing for the expedition.

The expedition to the Holy Roman Empire was a long way, so it was impossible for Yang Qi to send a large army over.

After synthesizing the combat effectiveness of the Yan army, as well as the speed of the march of the troops, and the rationing of baggage.

The number of troops sent by the Yan army was set at 100,000.

An army of 100,000 expeditions to the Holy Roman Empire doesn't seem like too much.

But it was not the Yan army that conquered the Holy Roman Empire.

The real main army is still dominated by the soldiers and horses of the Jin State.

The Yan army is more like an auxiliary operation.

Yang Qi transferred a group of soldiers and horses from the Northern Army, and from the Beijing Army guarding Yanjing City, a group of soldiers and horses were transferred, forming a total of 100,000 troops.

One should be armed, baggage, fully equipped.

They hit the road in a big way.

It is worth mentioning that the commander of this expedition did not have the Yang brothers.

Mu Yu took the initiative to ask Ying to be the commander, and Du Qing and He Jing served as the vanguard of the left and right armies.

A day after the army left Beijing.

Chen Lin staggered into the imperial study, not even caring about Shi Li, and immediately exclaimed: "Your Majesty! Something is wrong! ”

Yang Qi had never seen Chen Lin lose his temper like this, he hurriedly got up and asked, "What happened?" ”

"Yang Hong! Gone! ”

"Huh?!"

Yang Qi threw himself in front of Chen Lin and shouted in a deep voice: "Make it clear!" How is it gone! ”

Chen Lin hurriedly said: "The management and teaching of the Yanjing Martial Arts Academy has reported that Yang Hong has not been to the Martial Arts Academy for three days. I went to look for it today, but I didn't find anyone. When I went to his house, there was no one! ”

Yang Qi exclaimed, "It's not good! ”

He slammed up, "Quick! The order went down, and the three guards came out together, sealed off Wang Gui's mansion and blocked the palace for me, and then immediately went to chase the expeditionary army, and I must show the three people of Emperor Taishang, Yang Hong, and Wang Gui.

In the event of resistance, I will allow the three of them to be bound! ”

"Go!"
