Although in addition to more unexpected circumstances and gains, I? It's up to you to decide on the class teacher.

Before that, there is a hand tail that needs to be disposed of. Because, the messenger from the Northland Union has finally appeared in front of me.

Of course, it is said that the Northland Union is actually a loose alliance that plays its own game, without detailed charters and covenants, and without a core and dominant force that is too strong like the Luo clan or the Xue clan.

At the beginning, on the grounds that they were unwilling to continue to respond and participate, the two major forces of the Xue clan and the Luo clan were engaged in a protracted generational war, they gradually broke away from the situation controlled by these two families and formed a loose and self-protective consortium.

And the grudge between the two major forces of the Xue clan and the Luo clan also made them unable to let go of the confrontation in their hands, and instead used all their strength to deal with this new thing, and as a result, this temporary strange product became a fait accompli that had existed for a long time.

On the other side of the dispute between the two major families of Xue Luo, their attitudes and positions are also different; There are princes who have stayed out of the matter for a long time and watched from the sidelines, and there are also feudal families who have their own broken threads and secret songs, and seek corresponding benefits by increasing bets between these two forces.

In normal times, it is also divided into several regional factions, encroaching on each other and competing for resources, and only when under external pressure will they temporarily put aside differences and strife and make a consistent attitude towards the outside world.

Compared with the chaos isolated in the Central Plains in the early years, the princes of Anton, who have been watching from the wall for a long time in a corner, are in a sense a shrunken version.

According to the briefing received by the Roche side, the current Northern Union actually does not have enough strength to gather together to fight a protracted foreign attack.

The reason is very simple, under the persuasion from the Northern Dynasties, there were about twenty or thirty princes in the Northern Alliance, who swore to send troops to fight against the relatively empty Saiwai grassland, and the captive cattle and sheep population were not counted, and there is no sign of returning them so far.

This is also one of the important reasons why the original feudal lord Luo Zhanji spared no effort to compromise and marry with his old enemy Xue family, and planned to solve these wall grasses with all his might.

It's just that the current situation has become by mistake, although the old rival Xue clan does not exist, but the Luo clan does not have more strength, and carries out external expeditions, and even because of the internal strife and strife of the family, the power is seriously divided.

It's just the time of the times, which is really amazing.

Therefore, the messenger who came this time was only the power of the nine princes led by the Chu clan in this loose Northland Alliance, representing the Yaozhou area in the southwest.

However, when it comes to their identity, it is not worth seeing in person.

I directly sent Xue Huiyan to be responsible for the corresponding negotiations, and I just need to make a decision based on the feedback and make a trade-off.

This time, the other party offered, in addition to the direct cession of land, many indemnity and compensatory conditions.

On the one hand, they begged our army to stop the punitive fighting in Yaozhou, because the resulting wave of exile is said to have spread to several other neighboring states, causing local unrest.

On the other hand, it is hoped that those captured high-ranking officials and family members can be redeemed at the cost of corresponding status and status in accordance with the practice of princely disputes in the past.

You must know that among the people captured this time, there are three current feudal lords, as well as several times as many important members of the family, retainers and subordinates, etc., although most of them are middle- and lower-class princes;

But as the saying goes, they are still willing to pay enough price to save their power and lives. Especially the three feudal lords who were captured.

Most of the princes' houses were not necessarily harmonious within themselves, and in the event that the feudal lord was trapped by an enemy and was unable to perform his duties, it was also possible that the internal power and family lineage would be transferred.

So in a sense, they are much more anxious than I am about the success of this truce.

After all, it is certainly painful after the delivery of wealth and materials, but as long as the land and population are still there, they can be slowly collected and accumulated;

But once they are regarded as dead people, and they are promoted as family members, they will not only lose their fame and power, but their wives and concubines and children will be sent to others, or they will be cheapened by others.

This time, the representatives of various families came together as a group, but this also gave us some space and opportunity to operate.

I directly instructed Xue Huiyan to resolutely not accept group negotiations, but to negotiate the conditions separately and individually.

In this way, even if they have a verbal agreement to advance and retreat together, but in the case that the demands and conditions of each family are different, it is easy for me to increase the weight step by step and find out the bottom limit of the other party.

Even if there is a certain bottom line that needs to be adhered to, as long as one company is vacillating and compromised, it can use the second as a breakthrough and a coercive credential to pull others to a lower psychological bottom and level.

It's just that I'm not interested in most of the terms they propose.

After all, now after fighting all the way in Anton, ordinary money and goods don't mean much to me anymore.

And their armor and weapons are not as good as those I have captured; Unprocessed jade, gemstones, sands and other special minerals are not cost-effective enough to be transported back; As for the young women they were able to provide, there were only a few hundred of them.

In the end, therefore, all the conditions boiled down to a large project, that is, the livestock and horses produced locally or captured in the steppes outside the mountains, especially the various pack horses and war horses, were given the highest priority, as the reparations for the armistice and the ransom of the corresponding people.

As for the shortfall and shortfall, I don't care what means and channels they use, whether they steal or rob, find a way to buy in bulk, or start a war to extort and seize.

As long as each family splits it up, it can reach the number and average level I want.

On the one hand, this can supplement the needs of my troops, military travel and logistics capacity; On the other hand, the reduction of the eliminated herd can also be used to enrich the work of reclamation and development in the south.

Under the management mechanism and organizational efficiency of Huaidong, the comparative advantages of animal power and manpower are still quite distinct.

News came from the south again, but it was Luo Yunxiao, who had already occupied the advantage of his own family and the name of righteousness, and once again sent me an invitation, hoping that I could go to Liaocheng as promised, help him and discuss the prospects and projects for the two families to continue to cooperate in the future.

But before that, I have to make a trip to Kaiyi City to complete the final handover. Talk about those who don't want to stay, and send them back to Luo's house by the way......

In Huaidong, the girl Meimei's family visit is still continuing.

Although it is only a few fleeting moments of contact and appearance. Those enthusiastic children, as well as the sincere parents and elders of the village, as well as the soldiers who rejoiced from the bottom of their hearts, had already left a deep impression on her.

This is Huaidong under the rule of the husband, a special place full of controversy in legends. Faint pride and excitement have always been overflowing and lingering in her heart.

Until they arrived at the back house of the Zhenfu Mansion in Yidu City.

Compared with the soldiers and civilians in the city who came spontaneously along the street, the enthusiasm and hustle and bustle of the welcome in the middle of the road, it can be said that this place is a little too clean.

The huge mansion, except for the sergeants in armor and holding soldiers, was empty and there were hardly many traces of people and fireworks, only the background sound of birds chirping and insects chirping.

What is the situation, the girl was stunned for a moment,

Dressed in a fluffy puppet costume with a gray-spotted cat curled up on her head, she has a cold temperament like a large cat, and with an indifferent expression, she looks at her little girl Gajia.

There is another big girl he is quite familiar with in the Roche mansion, the company of Lang Jun's exclusive bed warmer (meat X?). She also stood at the inner door and stretched out her hand to greet her.

She was just smiling a little shyly, and she was holding a rope made of leather strips in her hand, and at the other end of the rope was a woman crouching with her hands and feet on the ground, and her dress was revealing her bewitching body.

docile like a dog, lying on the ground at his feet; In fact, the girl noticed that there was a pair of canine ears pinned to her head, and there was a faint furry tail under the skirt, which was enough to mess with the real thing, hanging on the ground and swaying slightly.

This situation made the girl messy in the wind for a while, and she was suddenly a little speechless.

"This is a punished toy ......"

The other party said in a flat and waveless tone, quite seriously.

Then, after a moment, she didn't have the heart to bother with this little detail.

"Let me preside? ……”

The girl said with some surprise

Regarding the achievements of the war in Liaoxi, a round of trophies and celebrations are prepared.

Even the people at the bottom need the most meager means of entertainment as a means of mental anesthesia and dissolution to the arduous reality, and of course, religious activities in a certain sense can also have a similar effect.

The difference is only in the fact that one is short-term and fast-acting, and the other is long-term and slow. Therefore, at the end of the year, the few festivals and holidays in Huaidong have become the most worthy of hope.

These public appearances and activities with a friendly nature require her to work hard to restrain herself, and she has been shy and timid, which has been engraved in her bones by the environment since she was a child, and as a representative of that husband, she has come forward to participate and preside over it decently and generously.

It was a great challenge and a trial for her. But she didn't want to back down in this matter, and she didn't want to embarrass the husband. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
