570 Toast without eating and drinking

Entering the topic, Hu Guang smiled and said seriously: "Although it is impossible for us to call the Heavenly Army to be recruited by the imperial court, we can promise you not to take the initiative to attack in the next two years." Well, just keep the current situation ......"

When Chen Qiyu heard this, he was overjoyed, and the court was very worried about a situation, and it was also the thing that he was most concerned about in this position, that is, whether the Heavenly Army planned to capture Shaanxi next, and then attack Shanxi to the east, and then threaten the Jingshi; To the south, you can advance into the Central Plains and disturb the hinterland of the imperial court; To the southwest, it can threaten the land of abundance. If any of these events happens, it will be a very serious matter.

Now that the biggest leader of the Heavenly Army is asked to take the initiative to promise in person, it must be true, which is really good news for the imperial court and for his position.

As for the two-year period, he simply ignored it. For him, he just needs to get through this difficult time; And for the imperial court, there is a two-year buffer, which is enough time to breathe.

However, Chen Qiyu also knew that since this young man was so committed, he must have requirements. He was also calm, and did not interject immediately, but just listened.

The council hall was very quiet, only Hu Guang's voice continued unhurriedly: "As for Jianyu's side, you can rest assured, we told the Heavenly Army to destroy them sooner or later, and there will be no possibility of reconciliation." ”

When he said this, he finally stopped talking for a while, and just looked at the high-ranking official of the court in front of him.

Chen Qiyu heard the second point, and his heart was also secretly happy. However, this will be more useful to the imperial court. At this time, hearing that Hu Guang didn't say anything more, he said quietly: "As the saying goes, there will be disasters if you don't succeed." What conditions do you have, you don't have to hide them. Even though it is. ”

He was already prepared in his heart, if Hu Guang said that these two points could really be done, although it was not as direct as Zhao'an, the difference would not be too far, and it would alleviate the urgent needs of the imperial court. As long as the conditions are not too harsh, they can be discussed.

Hu Guang listened. But he smiled and said: "It's not a condition, it's just that some things can be cooperated, communicate with each other, hello, I'm good, everyone's good!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Chen Qiyu suddenly realized that after this thief occupied the grassland land, his ambition should be to become the king of the grassland, so he was not interested in the emperor of Guannei. At the same time, like the great khans of the steppe, he was very interested in the mutual market. Just like Altan Khan and so on. In order to let the imperial court open the border city, he did not hesitate to meet each other, and even approached the city of Beijing.

This time, after the Heavenly Army occupied Yulin City, it did not continue to attack, and the idea of fighting turned out to be the same as Altan Khan, just for the sake of mutual markets!

Chen Qiyu took it for granted that he thought so, but he didn't have no reason not to think so. The grasslands are poor and supplies are scarce. If the imperial court blockades the frontier, their lives will definitely be difficult.

Figured it out. He felt confident in his heart. Why did you forget this before, and the Heavenly Army also has a request for the imperial court, which is easy to say.

After a moment of silence, Chen Qiyu looked up at Hu Guang and said in a deep voice: "My Ming Dynasty is a great country, and it has everything. There is no shortage of anything. Therefore, for my Daming, there is no need for mutual markets. If you are willing to exchange the war horse, you can also ...... a little."

Before he could finish speaking, Hu Guang waved his hand and interrupted him, "Lord Chen." You misunderstood. When I say cooperation, I don't mean opening border markets and exchanging war horses, furs, and other things like before. It's something else that's very good, no matter how big your country is, doesn't have it. ”

"Impossible, even if it's a war horse, in fact, I have it in the Ming Dynasty!" Chen Qiyu didn't believe it and replied categorically.

"Huh!" Hu Guang laughed, and immediately asked, "I don't know if Lord Chen has seen any differences between the ground of Yulin City and some houses after entering the city?" ”

As soon as he heard this, the gray surface immediately flashed in Chen Qiyu's mind. Could it be that this Hu Guang wants to exchange that thing?

Seeing a trace of doubt and uncertainty on Chen Qiyu's face, Hu Guang understood that he had thought of it, so he introduced him: "We asked Tianjun to produce something called cement, which is mixed with sand after being mixed with water, it will be very hard after solidifying, with good waterproof and certain fire resistance. You can think about it, if ......"

After Hu Guang introduced the characteristics of cement, he began to show Chen Qiyu the use of cement. Whether it's building a house or building a road, it's very practical. Chen Qiyu, as a military and political official, naturally quickly understood the benefits of this cement.

It is undeniable that for ancient times, the mud on the road on rainy days was the most headache. And the extravagant road repair method of bluestone paving can only be used in large towns. If you can solve the problem of muddy roads, it is really a great merit.

After Hu Guang finished talking about the cement, he began to introduce the next one: "In addition, the color of the glass produced by our Heavenly Army is much more transparent than that of the current Ming Dynasty, according to Western parlance, we call it glass." However, it is not yet truly colorless and transparent, but if it is used as a skylight or window, it will have very good light transmission. You see......"

When Chen Qiyu heard this, he looked at Hu Guang's point, and sure enough, he saw that there was a large piece of the roof that was paved with glass, and the light transmittance was very good. No wonder when I came in, I felt that the room was very bright, and it turned out to be the reason.

He listened to Hu Guang more and more, and his heart became more calm. He lowered his head, returned to a level-level angle to look at the smiling Hu Guang, and said with a little pride: "It is true that this official thinks these things are good, but they are not necessary for my Ming Dynasty. If you just want to use this as a mutual market, I'm afraid you may not be able to impress my Ming Emperor. ”

As he spoke, he had faintly regarded Hu Guang as the king of the grassland, no longer the king of thieves as he thought before. His mentality, unconsciously, regained the feeling he had when he negotiated with the leader of the grassland before.

When Hu Guang heard this, he waved his hand with an indifferent look: "Since this is the case, then we don't need to talk about it." On my side, pack up and prepare to go down a few more cities, and what about you, even if you lead the troops to fight. ”

As soon as he heard this, it was as if his life had been caught, and he had no ability to fight back. If you can really fight, how can you be here?

Chen Qiyu's face turned bitter, and he said helplessly: "This official is just guessing, guessing, and can't count." You...... Don't be angry, chief! ”

The corners of Hu Guang's mouth twitched slightly, thinking that he must let himself use this trick, it is really a toast and not eating and drinking. However, since it is to trade with the Ming Dynasty, it is best to be mutually beneficial, and it is impossible to get the greatest benefit under strong pressure, and it is necessary to give them something they want very much.
