Chapter 282: Negotiation

Qin Dong almost laughed out loud when he heard the conditions proposed by Mo Duo, but there was no reaction on his face, but he had already scolded the old guy Mo Duo in his heart, "I'll rub it, you old guy dare to mention such shameless conditions?" Do you really think that you are an uncle, a fragrant glutton, and everyone else has to kneel down and rush to ask for it? ā€

These four conditions are too much for Qin Dong, if he really agrees to these four conditions proposed by Mo Duo, then Mo Duo will become a country within a country after entering the territory allocated to him, and Mo Duo himself will become an uncle!

However, it is natural for Mo Duo to put forward conditions, after all, this is a negotiation, just like doing business, it is normal to bargain, the reason why Mo Duo put forward such harsh conditions is also to leave room for bargaining for himself and Qin Dong.

Qin Dong had a smile on his face, reached out and picked up the wine glass and drank it and put it down: "Lord Moduo, not to mention the previous friendship between the two of us, let's put aside the friendship first, you can bring the army to serve, to be honest, I am very welcome, this is something that cannot be begged for, and then on our previous friendship, as well as your previous care for me, it stands to reason that I should agree to these conditions you mentioned, but you should also know that once you reach our level, sit in this position, A lot of things are not what I want to be able to do, relatively speaking, these conditions you mentioned are problematic, the first three can be discussed, the last one is impossible, of course, for you the fourth may not be too much, with your qualifications, bow to me as a junior may not really be able to do, but you should understand. It is impossible for me to raise an uncle in my own home every day, I can't scold, I can't beat, and I can't shout. You say yes, right? ā€

Mo Duo himself had long known that this fourth article might be a bit excessive, but he still did not hesitate to put it forward as one of the conditions, Qin Dong's words hit the depths of his heart, and he said the careful thoughts in his heart that he wanted to retain a little dignity, but these words made Mo Duo's face red.

Qin Dong used to be Mo Duo's subordinate, and Mo Duo has been the master of Wanfu for many years, and Mo Duo's current official position is the right big household. In terms of the size of his official position, Qin Dong is indeed a little higher than Mo Duo, but Mo Duo is not Qin Dong's subordinate. It was too sudden for him to suddenly change his identity from his former superior to his equal, and from his subordinate to his superior, and finally from his subordinate to his subordinate. Time is too short. made Mo Duo unable to adapt to the new role at all, so from the bottom of his heart, Mo Duo really didn't want to be Qin Dong's subordinate, but he had to do this, which was related to the life and death of more than 10,000 people under his command, and now the weather was getting colder and colder, and the place where he was stationed before was too small, the armament could not be replaced, and the local area could not provide enough food and grass. The military salary is even more unsettled, if you don't want to find a way. It's really hard to say whether more than 10,000 people can survive this winter, if he is allowed to take refuge in Enek, this makes him unable to do it, he and Enek have had a war, the two sides have fought to the death, the feud is big, and they can't go to the west, let alone the north, the only way to survive is in the south, after all, he and Qin Dong had a relationship before, and he didn't tear his face when they parted ways, and now taking refuge in Qin Dong is the best way he can think of.

After Qin Dong finished speaking, Mo Duo's old face turned red, a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer Qin Dong, and Qin Dong didn't speak, he took the wine glass and drank the wine slowly, looking at Mo Duo's expression over and over again.

After a while, Mo Duo may have felt that the atmosphere could not be so awkward any longer, and he spoke: "Since the king has objections to these conditions, then please ask the king to say the conditions you can give, and I will see if I can accept it."

In fact, Qin Dong has always believed that the top level of the two sides should not come forward directly at the beginning of the negotiation, but the officials below will negotiate, so that even if the two sides are deadlocked, the top level can also come forward to ease the relationship, and if the top level of the two sides directly confronts each other at the beginning, then once the negotiation fails or the negotiation collapses, there is no room for redemption, Qin Dong originally wanted to reply to Mo Duo and let the officials below talk first, but Mo Duo may be in a more urgent situation, and has always insisted that Qin Dong come to talk in person, So Qin Dong didn't insist on his own ideas, so he came with the escort team.

And Modo also has a last resort, he and his army were already about to run out of food in Brasso, plus they braved a snowstorm to go south on the way, and the non-combat attrition along the way was very strict, and the food was almost unsupportable, and on such a cold day, many of his soldiers were still wearing single clothes, and if it continued like this, he suspected that the more than 9,000 cavalry under his command would not be able to support it for a few days, and he was now on Enek's territory, if Enek found his traces, it would be a big trouble to send a large army over, It is very likely that he will be trapped here, unable to advance or retreat, so he must find a shelter for himself and the more than 9,000 people under his command before the danger comes, and find a good way out, so he can't wait to ask Qin Dong to come over to talk in person, after all, it is much faster to meet and negotiate the conditions directly at the top, but he forgot that even if the top level directly negotiates face-to-face, it will take time, after all, this is a major matter related to the interests of both parties, and it is impossible to be careless, and it is necessary to strive for the greatest interests of his own people.

Now that the ball was kicked to Qin Dong's side by Mo Duo, Qin Dong thought for a while and said: "My lord said that there is no problem with the second one, if we succeed in negotiation, your lord's army will be the king's army, and the treatment will naturally be the same as other armies, and you should treat them equally!" First, there is a little bit of a problem, it is no problem to continue to be in command of the army, but the more than 9,000 cavalry of the adult must be reorganized and trained before they can have a number and establishment, and can enjoy the same treatment as other armies. The third question is not big, but I want to say hello to the adults in advance, here in this king, the army and the local government are separated, the army cannot intervene in the affairs of the garrison, and the local government office cannot intervene in the affairs of the local garrison, and the two sides cannot collude in private, and once discovered, they will be severely punished! As for the fourth article that the adults said, this one has nothing to talk about, I also said just now, I can't raise an uncle, and I have to provide for it well, if I promise this one today, and tomorrow someone else comes to serve, won't I have to agree to the same conditions for them, and then my territory will be full of countries within a country, then I still have to do it? These are the bottom lines I can give, as long as the adults don't build yƬ, then we can reach an agreement, and from now on we will be a family, of course, adults don't have to rush to make a decision, adults can go back first and then think about it, this matter is not a trivial matter after all, it is related to the future and fate of adults and their more than 9,000 soldiers! ā€

Mo Duo thought about it and felt that Qin Dong's last few words were right, and he should think about it carefully, but he still had a few questions about what Qin Dong said earlier, and he had to figure them out, so he asked: "May I ask the king, what is the situation of the reorganization training that the king said just now, and the number and establishment are the same thing?" Can you explain? ā€

"Okay!" Qin Dong immediately explained to Mo Duo the specific content of the reorganization training: "The first step of the reorganization training is to eliminate all the old, weak, sick and disabled in the army, and we can't let them continue to stay in the army to occupy the number and establishment, of course, some of them may have rich combat experience, but after all, they can't be compared with young people and normal people in terms of body, and they can't adapt to high-intensity training and combat missions. Until the number of troops is full, not only will not weaken the combat effectiveness of the army, but also improve the combat effectiveness of the army, the second step, after the dismissal of the old, weak, sick and disabled, is to improve the command system and ideological guidance system, since the adults have put themselves into service, then all the qiē of this army must be the same as the other armies of this king, including the training content, establishment and organizational structure must be the same, and there can be no special. There should be institutions in the other armies of this king, and this army that has been reorganized and trained must also have, so after re-improving the command system and ideological guidance system, it is the third step, and the next step is to train in accordance with the other armies of this king, until the training is completed, and the king can only issue a new number and establishment after passing the acceptance, and only then can the army officially enjoy the same treatment as other armies, I say so, do you understand? ā€

To be honest, Mo Duo really doesn't quite understand, there are too many fresh terms in Qin Dong's words, what is the reorganization, what number, what is the establishment, and what is the improvement of the command system and ideological guidance system, from the literal meaning, he still understands the term command system a little, but he doesn't quite understand what ideological guidance.

Mo Duo touched his head and said, "I still don't understand, the king's words are a little complicated!" ā€

Qin Dong thought for a while, took out a piece of silk cloth from his arms, handed it over, and said: "My lord, this is the establishment of a 10,000 horsemen in this king's army, you can take a look, if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me, and I will answer it for you now."

Mo Duo was illiterate at all, but fortunately he brought a person who could Latin over this time, and the man took the silk cloth to translate to Mo Duo, but when he didn't understand, he asked Qin Dong, and Qin Dong answered them one by one.

After learning about the establishment of a thousand cavalry, Mo Duo thought that he really had a detailed understanding of Qin Dong's army establishment, but in fact, he only understood a general idea, and did not understand the functions and roles of the officers in charge of ideological education in the army, he thought that he was a deputy of the chief officer, in fact, the role of this deputy was very large, and he did not expect that after his army received reorganization training, the whole situation would change, and he could no longer command the army at will. It is no longer possible to mobilize an army just to move it. (To be continued......)
