The next day, from noon to noon, the Guiping Junfu sang and danced, and the drums sounded in unison. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In the midst of the sound of silk and bamboo, the princes from the southwestern Yi countries came one after another.

Zhuo Wangsun took the knife and introduced the princes to him one by one.

"He Gang, the prince of this kingdom, ......"

"This Dian prince Xiong Hui ......"

"This Yelang Prince Wurong ......"

"This white horse prince Yang wins ......"

…………………………

After a series of introductions, the princes of the main kingdoms of the Southwest Yi Kingdom let all the knives know each other.

"Princes, please introduce ...... contemptible people" Zhuo Wangsun said to the princes again: "Your Excellency ...... Jingfu Duwei Dao Gongjian"

When the princes heard this, they hurriedly bowed their hands and said: "The ministers of the small country have seen the nobles of the upper country......"

The knife immediately stepped forward with a smile, bowed his hand one by one, and said: "I have heard for a long time that all the princes have both talent and virtue, Yunwen Yunwu, and when I saw the knife today, it is worthy of its reputation!" ”

The princes hurriedly returned the salute and worshiped: "Don't dare to praise ...... nobles"

The guests and hosts then sat down, and immediately a maid came up and offered tea, snacks, and wine.

The sword room was on the side of the main seat, and he looked at the princes and princes in private.

The southwestern Yi countries have long been separated from China, and their countries live in the mountains, under deep valleys.

The customs are different, the languages are different, and the beliefs are very different.

It is quite similar to the current Qiang people.

But......

Unlike the Qiang, merchants and Confucian scholars from China have been traveling to these areas without interruption for the past two or three hundred years.

They brought with them Chinese culture and goods, and they also left a deep imprint on the local area.

What's more, the Chu and Qin states in the early Warring States period both explored the southwest.

The Dian Kingdom and several surrounding kingdoms with the same surname are all descendants of the Chu general Zhuang Qiao.

Among the Yu, Hui and other countries, there are also nobles who are descendants of officials of the Qin State.

Hundreds of years of infection have made the southwestern countries have long had deep ties with China.

And the addition of Zhuo Wangsun and Cheng Zhengying, with iron and blood, money and interests, made the entire southwest region become a Shura field.

In the end, the countries that could not withstand the years of war and attack had no choice but to submit to Chang'an, so as to avoid the situation of their own kingdoms, like those that have now disappeared.

But the strength of all countries is actually not bad.

The knife room has already made up for his homework and knows the depth of the southwestern countries.

Just like the Dian Kingdom, a kingdom established by the conquerors of the Chu people, although it has fallen into the mountains for hundreds of years and is not connected to China, it has already been 'Zhuxia into Yidi, then Yidi', both customs and culture, have been Yidi.

The hair is combed in a bun and the left is haired, but in general, its kingdom system is still the same as that of Chu.

It has tens of thousands of troops and can be called a strong man in the southwest region.

And that country, although everyone thinks it is a small country.

The population is only more than 100,000, but it is the most ferocious force among the southwestern countries.

In the past few years, more than 40 percent of the wars to destroy the country in the southwest region have been provoked by the servants.

The servants fought fiercely and tenaciously.

And he is particularly keen on captive and slave training.

The world-famous slave is the best evidence.

This kingdom was also the number one slave trader among the southwestern kingdoms.

In the past, they supplied more than half of the slave labor in Linqiong.

This kingdom also operates a luxury that is now recognized by the world, the slave.

Now, a strictly trained slave is worth at least 50,000 yuan in Chang'an. If it is the best beautiful maid, it may even be worth millions!

Relying on the export of slaves to the Han family, the wealth of the servants skyrocketed all of a sudden.

It is said that the king of Yu has even planned to build a small Weiyang palace in his kingdom to imitate the pattern of the Han Weiyang Palace.

And the Yu Kingdom is also the only kingdom in the southwest that did not submit to the Han family because of the murderous reputation of Cheng Zhengying and Zhuo Wangsun - they surrendered only for economic reasons.

Han was the largest trading partner of the Servant Kingdom.

Ninety percent of the country's imports and eighty percent of its exports depended entirely on the Han Dynasty.

Once they had a bad relationship with the Han, the nobles of the Yu Kingdom, who had become accustomed to enjoying the high-quality goods of the Han family and relying on the merchants of the Han family, would immediately jump into the river!

As for other Yelang, Kankoku, etc., the situation is different.

Yelang is the younger brother of South Vietnam, while Zuo Guo is located in the more remote and steep mountains.

The people are famous for their yaks, but their warriors are not to be underestimated.

Thinking of this information in his heart, Daojian raised the wine bottle and said to the princes: "Today, this official asked Guiping Jun to introduce you to the princes for me, but it is for one thing......

"The Son of Heaven intends to use troops to the west, and the Qiang people in the west have quite a few who disobey my Han Dynasty...... "The knife arched his hand in the direction of Weiyang Palace, and then said: "And this official has been ordered by the Son of Heaven to protect the Qiang Commander and Prime Minister Qiang affairs...... The decree will be given in these days......"

The princes listened and looked at each other.

The Han Dynasty used troops in the west, what did it have to do with the southwestern countries? It's not good to be completely out of touch!

At that moment, He Gang, the crown prince of the Yu Kingdom, stood up and bowed: "The minister dares to ask the minister of the kingdom: But what is the use of us?" ”

He Gang was a man in his twenties, with a strong figure, wearing a Han aristocratic dress, his hair tied and crowned, and his face looked similar to that of the Shu people.

The accent is even more Pakistani, and at first glance, no one will think that this is the prince of the country of Yidi.

But......

In the southwestern Yi, this person has a nickname called 'Ba Snake'.

The snake is greedy.

And He Gang's greed is even worse than that of the snake!

At least the snake only eats alive, and He Gang is a terrible person who even has to scrape the ground before he stops.

He once led his troops to destroy the country of Jilan in the southwest of the Yu Kingdom, and uprooted the entire Kingdom of Qilan.

The elderly, children, women, and even babies were all taken captive.

Those who disobey were killed, their heads hung up, hung on the cliffs, and allowed to be pecked by eagles and birds.

The entire kingdom of Gelan is like a locust crossing the border, and there is no grass.

Its greed is so great that there is no other in the southwestern countries.

Knife looked at this man, thinking about his deeds and past in his heart.

This kind of person, the knife is the favorite.

Greed is good!

"The Qiang people all live in the mountains, in the deep valleys and dense forests, my Han family is the king, good at field warfare but not good at mountains......" Daojian smiled at He Gang and said: "Therefore, this official wants to say a word or two to the princes, and ask all countries to send troops to help my Han family ......"

"If the Qiang people do not obey, then the warriors of all countries will be destroyed......"

When the princes of all countries heard this, they all looked at each other.

Sending troops to help Han?

Some princes who were interested in getting close to and admiring the Han family were thrilled.

For example, Xiong Hui, the prince of the Dian Kingdom, immediately said: "Since it is the request of the kingdom, the Dian kingdom should not allow it......"

He leaned over and said, "The minister will write a letter back to China and ask the royal father to send troops...... However, when this soldier came to the kingdom, he asked the kingdom to receive some armor, money, and food......"

Xiong Hui's words immediately resonated among the princes of various countries.

Everyone said: "If the kingdom can receive armor, money and food, it is easy to talk about sending troops!" ”

In the southwestern countries, there is no shortage of soldiers.

The chaotic wars of the past few years have forced all countries to embark on the path of military first.

Everything for the sake of war, everything for the sake of war.

But now, when all countries surrendered to the Han family one after another, the Han Emperor became the co-lord of all countries, peace came, and the huge army had nowhere to settle, and even became a big trouble for all countries!

Those nobles who have self-respecting troops, those who divide one side.

Each of them makes the royal families of various countries like a man, and it is difficult to sleep and eat!

Now, with the tiger skin of the Han Dynasty, it is better to send away the source of these disasters!

If you can make another sum of money and food, and take a batch of armor of the Han Dynasty as the royal heritage, then you will earn to death!

After all, who doesn't know the power of Han's armor?

Daojian shook his head with a smile and said, "The countries sent troops to the Han Dynasty, and the official can send someone to answer it...... But...... But each country has to bring its own money, food, and armor......"

As soon as these words came out, the scene was suddenly a little embarrassing.

Do you have to bring your own dry food when you send troops?

The princes looked at each other, thinking that either they were crazy, or this Han Dynasty official was crazy!

How can it be!

Even if everyone is Han's own son, it is impossible to do this, right?

Sending troops is not a trivial matter, and when the cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold.

Not to mention sending troops from the southwest and crossing the Han border to the far west?

Daojian looked at everyone and said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, princes, and listen to what the official says......"

"This official has already talked to Zhuo Gong, Cheng Zhenggong and other Ming Gong......"

"The Qiang prisoners of war obtained by this dispatch were all collected by Zhuo Gong and other Ming dukes......"

"It's all based on market prices......"

"Market price?" When He Gang heard this, the whole person was excited!

The servants were born slave traders, they were keen on catching slaves, and before Zhuo Wangsun and Cheng Zhengying brought the rhythm of the slave trade, the servants were already constantly hunting slaves, and formed a tradition of slave training!

And now, the whole country is a huge slave camp.

The brave warriors of the Servant Kingdom entered the countries and penetrated into the mountains to find and hunt down anyone they found.

The men were sold to Zhuo Wangsun and Cheng Zhengying, and the women were sent to training camps, where they underwent rigorous training and then sold to the world through Han merchants.

The huge profits of the slave trade even pushed the servants to grade their slaves.

Now, the slaves in Chang'an City are divided into jade slaves, silver slaves, gold slaves and copper slaves.

The jade slave is the most valuable, one will cost a million, and the copper slave is the lowest, but it also needs thirty or fifty thousand.

But......

The price of these slaves in the country is very low.

Even the most expensive jade slave only needs 100,000.

A copper slave can even take a few pieces of silk away......

The huge difference fell into the hands of the middlemen, but the servants were helpless.

Because this is the buying market, they don't have pricing power and no right to speak.

He Gang has always wanted to change this situation and dominate the pricing of slaves and maids.

Now, the opportunity has come, and the people of the Han Dynasty have taken the initiative to loosen this opening!

This made He Gang ecstatic!

He immediately said: "In this way, the minister is willing to make the decision for the royal father and send 2,000 troops, all of whom are warriors of the kingdom and are in battle for the kingdom!" ”

Yelang Crown Prince Wu Rong also said: "The small country is also willing to send 2,000 troops to ...... for the advance of the kingdom."

The princes of other countries also spoke one after another, and the number of troops sent ranged from hundreds to more than a thousand.

This is also the upper limit of the troop that the economy of each country can afford now, after all, sending troops from their own countries, bringing their own dry food, and working for the Han Dynasty is huge, even if it is a trench like Yelang and Yuguo, it can only bear the upper limit of 2,000.

Hearing this, Daojian smiled and said, "Princes, please don't be impatient...... I haven't finished my words yet......"

The princes immediately fell silent.

"In addition to the prisoners of war and the spoils of war obtained by the countries, this official will also ask the Son of Heaven to give the kings of the nations a ...... according to the ratio of the military merits made by the armies of all countries."

Now, the fryer is on.

Han Dynasty military exploits?

As long as people with a normal brain know, what does this thing mean?

This is the talisman, the key to saving life and preserving the country!

Today, the southwestern kingdoms are aware of one fact - the life and death of their kingdoms are tied to the hands of the Han court.

Even He Gang, the crown prince of the Yu Kingdom, who was arrogant and arrogant in the country and thought that he was the first in the world of labor and capital, immediately sobered up after arriving in Chang'an - this powerful Han Dynasty could even strangle the Yu Kingdom with just one finger.

Even, Han doesn't need to do anything, just Nunu's mouth.

The other southwestern countries will immediately besiege the servants, tear the servants apart, and use the blood of the servants to curry favor with the Han Dynasty!

Even, even those nobles who support their own troops and respect themselves within the Yu Kingdom may quickly turn against the water, raise the banner of 'respecting the king and rebelling', and destroy the Yu royal family!

And the reason is quite simple.

After the 'indoctrination' of Zheng Ying and Zhuo Wangsun, there are a large number of leading parties and dogs in the southwestern countries.

The economic lifeline and life and death of various countries are also tied to the Han Dynasty.

And the aristocracy also generally accepted Han culture.

Especially in the Dian Kingdom, the Yu Kingdom and the Yelang Kingdom, the degree of sinicization of the domestic aristocracy is even close to seventy!

There are both economic and religious reasons for this.

Among the southwestern Yi, the prestige of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty is also prestigious.

"Also...... Princes, my Han family doesn't just have to take care of a few Qiang people......" Daojian continued: "In the future, Wang Shi will also march into Hexi, reach the Western Regions, and even penetrate into the West, occupying the land of poison......"

The knife is like a demagogic devil, and he is tempting step by step: "A distant country, thousands of miles away, there is no count, and there are hundreds of millions of people!" ”

"In this great world, princes, aren't you still enlightened?"

"If the soldiers and horses of all countries, in this battle of Pingqiang, have meritorious deeds, and are the attention of the world, in the future, the Han invades the Western Regions and takes poison, the Son of Heaven will definitely use the soldiers and horses of all countries again, and the wings of the Han will also ......"

These words completely broke the hearts of the princes of various countries.

For these kingdoms, which have become accustomed to catching slaves and rely heavily on the slave trade, the most embarrassing thing for them now is that there is nowhere to catch slaves.

The economy is facing a transformation, while the country is facing difficulties.

But......

Now, the knife room has proposed a new option for them - why do they have to hunt slaves in the southwest?

In the distance, there are countless countries and countless peoples.

As long as the big guy clings to the thigh of the Han Empire, this slave hunting business will not be exhausted.

You can continue to immerse yourself in the Golden Age and contribute to the prosperity of yourself and your kingdom.

At the moment, the princes of various countries already know what they should do: of course, they are to do their best to follow the sword to the west, this battle must be fought well, and leave a good impression on the father of the Han Dynasty, so that in the future, they can continue to get business!
