Chapter 396 - Indemnity for land cession
At this point, the reaction of Cao Guo, Lan Guo, Yun Guo, and Kang Guo was particularly strong.
Because in terms of credit, several countries are about the same.
No matter how many troops there are, they will always follow the coalition forces to advance and retreat anyway.
"Why doesn't the empress speak?"
Unconsciously, Emperor Chu noticed the Empress Ruan, and seeing that she had been silent, he couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Everyone came all the way to meet the alliance, isn't it just for these few days, the Empress Ruan Guo was quite active a few days ago, and there were some exchanges between the two, and some consensus was reached on the issue of Wang Ji Land and Wu State, and it stands to reason that when it comes to discussing various specific matters today, the Empress Ruan Guo should be more active, how is it completely opposite, and she looks like she lacks interest.
There must be a demon when things go wrong, which makes Emperor Chu feel a kind of vigilance.
And just now, after a long period of observation, he found that the eyes of the Empress Ruan Guo gathered on the body of the Emperor of Cangguo from time to time.
Could it be that the two have reached any secret agreement in private?
As time passed, this idea became more and more ingrained in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more lingering it became, and when it came time for all countries to refute Chu State, he finally asked out, hoping to get Ruan Guo's help.
"Huh? Good ......."
Empress Ruan raised her eyes and nodded to Emperor Chu again and again.
Good?
What is good?
Just now, I asked you why you didn't speak, but I didn't ask if I was okay......
Obviously, the Empress Nguyen was absent-minded.
During the negotiation of the alliance, the Empress Nguyen was absent-minded, which is indeed a remarkable thing.
At this time, a maid beside the Empress Ruan Guo whispered a few words behind her back in a timely manner, and the latter reacted and said: "The battle of the Jin Dynasty, whether it is sending troops into the country to fight, or contributing money and grain to stabilize the rear, the credit is not small. After the Great War, the armies of various countries were combined into coalition forces, so in terms of land division, it is better to calculate according to the number of troops and horses dispatched. ”
Calculated according to the number of troops and horses dispatched?
The Emperor of Chu was a little confused, not that he felt that this distribution method was unacceptable, but that he felt that the Empress Ruan was too unreasonable.
This is different from what was discussed before!
Aren't they going to suppress Cangguo together?
Isn't it to compress the territory of Cangguo?
How now, completely changed!
The emperors of the two countries are not fools, they can naturally see the development potential of Cangguo, among the three strongest countries in the battle of Jin, the land area of Cangguo is small, and the foundation is also the weakest.
Therefore, before this, the Emperor of Chu and the Emperor of Ruan reached a consensus that more money can be given in this alliance, but the land must be compressed as much as possible!
Therefore, for this alliance, the state of Chu is well established.
Unexpectedly, after thousands of calculations, the Empress Ruan seemed to have forgotten about it.
This time, it can make it difficult for him.
"The empress is right, I, Kang Guo, also agree with this distribution method!"
Emperor Kangguo stroked his palms and smiled, no matter what, in this battle of Jin, Kangguo really had more than 200,000 troops on the battlefield, but according to the merits and casualties, it is actually equivalent to a role of waving the flag and cheering, even if it is a result, Kang Guo will not take any advantage.
However, if calculated according to the number of troops dispatched, then Kang Guo has a big advantage.
Not to mention the same amount of territory as Yun Guo, at least it is about the same as Cao and Lan.
Moreover, the three countries of Cao, Lan, and Yun were not adjacent to the Jin State, and the land obtained either exchanged cities with neighboring countries or sold to other countries in exchange for money, which always had to suffer a loss.
Kangguo is different, the land divided can be owned by himself, and the outpost fortresses that have been a big trouble for many years can also be in his own hands, and since then, Kangguo's strength has increased greatly.
Compared with the happiness of Emperor Kang, Emperor Wei was a little anxious.
In the battle of the Jin Dynasty, the total number of troops dispatched by the Wei State was only more than 300,000.
It's only a third of Nguyen's size.
According to the strength of the army, the Wei State had no advantage, and it was impossible to recover the territories that were invaded by the Jin State.
"What the empress said is indeed the best way to solve the problem, and my Cangguo will suffer a little loss, so let's follow it."
Yang Mu didn't have much opinion, anyway, the countries insisted on their own opinions, and they couldn't get a result, and Cangguo invested almost all its troops in the war, and it didn't suffer much, so it was better to directly use this most direct way to delineate this matter.
"I, Cao Guo, also agree."
Lan Guo agreed.
"Yunguo agrees."
"I'm Wei Guo...... No comments either. ”
"That's it, the state of Chu is not against the general trend, so it will be divided according to the number of troops."
Finally, after Cangguo's statement, the emperors of all countries also agreed, and the division of the city land was thus established.
It's that simple.
The more you get to the top, the easier it is to deal with major things, as long as the general direction is determined, the rest of the things will be done by the ministers below.
The emperors of the rest of the countries, looking at the discussions in the eight countries, just watched the excitement and did not say a word.
Of course, there are also people who are envious and regret it.
If you had known, why didn't you send troops to participate?
Look at the Cao State and the Lan State, just sending 100,000 troops is worth ten years of domestic income, and it is more than enough to form an army of 200,000.
Finally, it was time to discuss the distribution of the treasure.
The official name is Indemnity.
It's a little different from dividing up the city.
When dividing the city and land, in addition to the Jin Kingdom, there was only one Che Country that had already been destroyed by the Cang Kingdom, that is to say, the Che Kingdom was the meal on the plate of the Cang Kingdom, which was not within the scope of discussion, and the eight countries discussed the territory of the Jin Kingdom.
The reparations were to be paid by several allies of the Jin Kingdom.
Among them, there are Hong, Yu, Song, Yue, Lin, Shao, Luo, Xiang, and Mu, these nine countries.
Except for Linguo, who made some contributions because he killed the emperor of the Jin State at that time, the remaining eight countries had to produce some blood more or less.
Among them, the country of Yiluo and the country of Hongguo suffered the most, not only were they attacked by neighboring countries and lost some cities, but now they have to pay compensation.
At noon, the banquet was held directly in the land of the alliance.
Then they had their fill, and the nations continued to discuss.
After several confrontations, after all, the situation on the side of the Cutting and Jin Alliance was stronger, forcing the emperors of the Nine Kingdoms to sign an indemnity agreement.
Of course, it's not a one-time thing.
Yang Mu proposed the concept of staging.
It stipulates that within six months after the alliance, nine countries are required to honour 50 per cent of the amount in the reparations agreement, and the rest can be repaid in three years. ()
