Chapter 235: Cooperation with Huaxia
But the idea is beautiful, but the reality is skinny! Just one day later, Lao Jiu received a bad news. That is, the Mongol Empire began to advance again, and began to camp again in the places where it had been encamped.
After half a day of investigation, Lao Jiu finally knew the reason. Because Russia ceded several cities occupied by the Mongol Empire, and at the same time the two sides reached an agreement to form an offensive and defensive alliance to jointly resist the invasion of China.
Just yesterday morning, the leadership of Russia, together with the leadership of Mongolia, held a meeting. The main content of the talks was to jointly resist the invasion of China in the future, sign a "non-aggression pact" with each other, and unanimously decide to block the territory of China south of the north-south boundary river.
Seeing that the form was reversed, Lao Jiu could only helplessly take the last move. In fact, this move was something he had never wanted to take, but now that the form was forced, he had no choice in the face of the attack of the two empires. And this last move is to cooperate with Huaxia.
On the day when the Mongol Empire set up camp, Lao Jiu immediately sent an invitation to the Chinese side to meet, and at the same time described the whole thing. He was not worried that Huaxia would not send troops, because once Huaxia did not send troops, then he would give up Guanwai.
At that time, if the two major passes of the Qilin Jade Canyon are mastered by the two empires, then the price that Huaxia wants to go north may not be imaginable. And Lao Jiu's biggest loss is nothing more than some grain and grass.
If he is willing to cooperate with the two empires and give up everything outside the gates, he may be able to get a lot of compensation. It's just that this kind of good thing, he doesn't want to cheapen foreigners. Especially the Russian Empire, the territory is not enough, and what they care about most is food.
And Lao Jiu also made the worst plan, even if all the grain could not be transported away, he could completely burn it with a fire, which was the last thing the Russian Empire wanted to see. In just half an hour, the Chinese diplomats arrived.
However, what Lao Jiu didn't expect was that the person who came was none other than his father-in-law, Yushengxiang's father, Yukun!
"Huh...... I said you kid, you're still so good at tossing! In Amur City, Yukun just saw Lao Jiu, and shook his head with a smile.
"Look at what you always say, if I don't toss, how can I feed your daughter." Lao Jiu rolled his eyes, looked at him and said, "You must have guessed that I did some things, so I tacitly ignored Guanwai." ”
"We also have to think about the big picture, otherwise we can make your kid jump for so long?" Bringing Yukun to the conference room, he looked at Lao Jiu angrily and said, "The form here is already very serious, let's get down to business." ”
"What is there to say about this, you just send a large army, and then hold the front line, in the future, this territory will be Huaxia, I collected my own food, how about leaving immediately?" Lao Jiu looked at him and said.
"Don't think about good things for you kid, you don't know how much manpower and material resources are consumed to launch an imperial war, if it is really according to what you think, we might as well take this opportunity to directly capture the two major fortresses." Yukun glanced at Lao Jiu angrily and said.
"In this way, you will definitely not be able to take care of the enemy on your back, so it is almost a sure thing for us to capture the two major fortresses, and as for the expansion outward in the future, you can slowly plan it, so why rush for a while."
"I said your daughter wouldn't be hugged, would it? Why aren't you looking at me at all? Lao Jiu looked at him with a bitter look and said.
"You kid, don't talk to me about what you have and don't, I can still tell the difference between right and wrong, I'm only in my forties now, and I'm not old and confused." Yukun glanced at Lao Jiu and said, "I'd better get straight to the point." ”
"First of all, we can only help you defend one city, and you must defend the other by yourself! Secondly, you have to hand over the two fortresses of Qilin and Canyon, and then withdraw all your soldiers. In the end, the hundreds of millions of fertile land in the north and south boundary rivers must be returned to China in the future, and at the same time, China needs one-third of the grain this time. ”
"Gotcha! You have come from a long journey, I guess you are also tired, or I will arrange for you to rest first, I will discuss with the Russian Empire. Lao Jiu rolled his eyes and said speechlessly.
"What are you talking about, boy? If there is no intervention of the Chinese Empire, within half a month, Hulunbuir City and Amur City will be destroyed! Yukun looked at Lao Jiu unhappily and said, "According to the latest information we have gotten. ”
"The Mongol Empire has sent 50,000 heavy cavalry, which is a real seventy-level elite soldier, and if you want to set foot on a small Hulunbuir city, I think it's no problem. At the same time, the Russian Empire also sent 50,000 regular seventy-level elite cavalry. ”
"And the two empires have a lot of eighty-level masters involved, with your current strength, you are not qualified to negotiate with others at all. Therefore, I still advise you not to have those unrealistic ideas, and only by cooperating with Huaxia is the most correct. ”
"You always think that I really don't have any hole cards? I just don't want to make a loss-making deal. Lao Jiu looked at his father-in-law and said, "If the pay is far greater than the return, I don't think anyone will do this kind of transaction." ”
"To put it mildly, I have soldiers, horses, food, and grass, and this is a game after all. If I wanted to, I alone would be enough to bring down an empire. Because no one knows my real lair, and no one can really help me. ”
"It's not that I'm boasting here, if I want to go, in the current game, I don't think anyone can really keep me. I think you've learned that I have a mobile army that can be anywhere at any time, and I guess that's your biggest threat. ”
"Maybe it's my luck, so I've always had a lot of artifacts in my hands. After all, a game is a game, and equipment is part of strength. Although I can't destroy an empire, I have the absolute strength to make trouble, just like in several empires in the southwest. ”
"You kid said so much, don't you just don't want to compromise?" Yukun frowned and said, "Then you can tell me your requirements, so that I can listen to your thoughts." ”
"My idea is very simple, you guard Hulunbuir City, and I guard Amur City. When my grain is finished, I will immediately withdraw, and then Qilin City, Dragon City, Northeast City, Northwest City, Hulunbuir City, and Amur City, these six cities will all be given to you. ”
"Even the hundreds of millions of hectares of fertile land that I have cultivated will become an important grain production base for you. After paying so much, I just want you to hold Hulunbuir City, I don't think this request is too much, right? ”
"Besides, it's not so much for me to defend the city as it is for you. Because of this huge territory, it will be Chinese in the future. The reason why I didn't want to destroy everything here before I left was because I wanted to give this place to Huaxia, after all, I am also a Huaxia person. ”
"Are you sure you can hold in the face of the attacks of the three empires? I really want to know where your kid's confidence comes from! Yukun looked at Lao Jiu and asked in surprise.
"You don't have to take my words, even if you can really hold on, I won't do it." Lao Jiu rolled his eyes, and then said, "I have already given Huaxia face by doing this." It's your Yu family who came today, if it's a rich family, then it's not negotiable at all. ”
"I think this is already a great benefit for you, and I have done enough for Huaxia. So, I also hope that you will leave me a way to live. Because in my heart, I don't want to go to the opposite side of Huaxia, I think you should know this very well. ”
"I'm sure I have the cards, but I'm not going to take them out this time. My conditions have been said, and this is also my biggest concession, if you don't want to, then I will immediately go to the other two empires to negotiate, I think they may be more interested in the two major passes. ”
"You kid, you're commanding my army!" Yukun sighed with emotion and said, "It seems that we have to agree if we don't agree!" You're always able to do something that we didn't expect. ”
"Isn't there anything I can't do about it, isn't this all forced by you?" Lao Jiu said helplessly, "The huge Huaxia has no place for me now." So I had to find another way. ”
"Your existence is enough to threaten an empire, how can Huaxia tolerate you?" Yukun rolled his eyes and said, "From a personal point of view, I am still very optimistic about you, and I hope you can really achieve a hegemony." ”
"But I'm here today on behalf of Huaxia, and the current form of Guanwai is almost very serious. Before I came, I had already discussed internally, as long as you are willing to hand over the territory outside the Guan, the Huaxia side will send troops. So, we just have to sign the treaty now. ”
"Actually, I don't have any interest in this side at all, and at such a big cost, I just want to save some surplus food for my family." Lao Jiu said very casually, "After all, there will be chaos in the future, and I can't let your daughter go hungry, right?" ”
"You kid don't have a poor mouth in front of me, this is a relevant treaty, you can take a look, if there is no problem, you can sign it, we can send troops over!" Yukun glanced at Lao Jiu angrily, then took out a document, handed it to him and said.
Lao Jiu took the document and read it carefully. I found that the content in it was almost not much different from what he proposed. It seems that Huaxia has already calculated everything thoroughly.
It's just that they have one demand, that is, Lao Jiu must withdraw the defense of Qilin Pass. To put it another way, it is to hand over the Qilin Pass to Huaxia first. In this way, it is equivalent to half of the territory outside the Guan, which was directly prepaid to Huaxia in advance.
