Chapter 182: The Prairie Club
Originally, after the three parties negotiated here, according to Ye Teng's plan, they would go to Linhe County to visit Badao together.
The three beauties of Xue Weiyang sent a subordinate to Linhe to ask for a knife on the grounds that they were unwilling to move. In Ye Teng's opinion, it should be when the three beauties of Xue Weiyang want to talk about these things, and all three of them are present, and if they go to the territory of Badao, Ye Teng and Yan Ruoyu are alone, and it is not appropriate for them to dispatch the three of them at once.
Badao came very quickly, but the first sentence when he entered the door made everyone a little embarrassed: "You invited me here today, are you ready to give me compensation?" ”
"There is a compensation plan, but it is not compensation, is Brother Badao willing to listen to it?" Ye Teng said with a smile.
"Naturally, I want to hear it." Ba Dao made a statement of interest.
"How about the 30 million square kilometers of pasture sent to Brother Badao? That's enough compensation, right? Ye Teng solemnly stretched out three fingers.
Ba Dao sprayed a sip of tea on the ground, coughed a few times, and then said with difficulty: "Suddenly... Cough... Cough... Flicker, flicker, flicker. ”
Ye Teng took out the map with a smile, spread it out, held it with his left hand, and then drew a circle on the grasslands north and northwest of Shuofang County with the index finger of his right hand, and said, "Is there 30 million square kilometers here?" ”
"Yes, yes, but when did this become your family?"
"Knock it down, isn't it just a few of us?" Shangguan Xue'er took over the conversation, and then used crisp and logical language to explain the pre-negotiated plan of the three families to Badao.
"I knew there would be no pie in the sky. Is this your compensation? Ba Dao glanced at them with disdain, and said, "There are still 30 million square kilometers, and if the Ba Dao Alliance wants that strength, the entire northern grassland, and even the whole of Huaxia, is mine!" Am I that stupid? Pull that large grassland under your own name? Provoke endless hatred for yourself, roast yourself on the fire? ”
"If the Overlord Sword City Lord thinks so, it's actually simple." Zhu Weixuan interjected, "Revise our original plan and expand the scope of cooperation!" We will bring in the top, first-class, and second-rate forces in China who are familiar with us and trustworthy. Hold a hero's meeting, slaughter the northern pastures, and give each family a ranch! ”
"If the four of us form an alliance in the future, they can also participate in the alliance on their own merits, or become peripheral forces of the alliance." Ye Teng said.
"If this is the case, any force that wants to challenge us must weigh it in advance! Otherwise, if we let the Xuanyuan Alliance and other forces instigate a large number of forces to confront us and grab the northern pastures with us, the four of us alone may not be able to stop it. Shangguan Xue'er said.
"Then set up a club, well, it's called the Prairie Club, and each of us can invite several forces to participate!" Domineering Daodao.
"In order to avoid the flooding of participants and damage to cohesion, I suggest that each family invite 2 forces to participate, plus the four of us, the Prairie Club will have 12 forces, how about it?" Ye Teng raised his head and glanced at the others.
"The number of places is too small, invite this, not invite that, it's a bit offended." Ba Dao frowned.
"That's true, Ye City Lord, forces like the Overlord Sword Alliance and Xue Weiyang, not only have a lot of forces that depend on us, but also some friendly forces, either they don't invite, as long as they are invited, if they invite this or not, they will offend people a little." Shen Yuyang rarely interjected, it is estimated that she also has forces in her heart that she has to bring, and she is afraid that she will not be able to allocate places.
"That can't be too much, otherwise there will definitely be no cohesion and binding! Please note that the people you invite should ensure that they are in step with us in the future, otherwise it may undermine the basis of cooperation. My opinion is that the number of people should not be too large, and if we add the four of us, it will be limited to eighteen. There are 14 places in total, let's see how they are allocated. Ye Teng had a tough attitude.
"How about the extra places, me and Xue Weiyang's family of three?" Ba Dao looked tentatively at Ye Teng and Yan Ruoyu.
"I'm fine." Yan Ruoyu glanced at Ye Teng, and saw that he didn't say anything, so she agreed.
"So be it." Ye Teng nodded, anyway, he didn't know any forces, it didn't matter.
In the end, the four of them jointly discussed the time for the first plenary meeting, which was set for one week later, and the venue was still in the Heyin County Ya in Xueweiyang.
Until he finally said goodbye, Badao did not mention the compensation again.
Tianma City, Xue Weiyang, and the Yan family also automatically ignored the fact that the three of them opened their hearts to express their medium- and long-term goals.
This is the purpose of Ye Teng to find the Yan family and Xue Weiyang first, after all, the Badao Alliance is relatively strong, and although Xue Weiyang is comparable to it, his self-confidence in the face of Badao is still slightly insufficient.
As for the short- and medium-term goals that are explained to each other, in fact, everyone is not too serious. The changes and development of things often do not depend on people's subjective will.
When Cao Cao first raised filial piety, he thought that his reputation was not high, so his life goal was just to be the Taishou of a county; After participating in the suppression of the Yellow Turban Uprising, he took charge of the army at the beginning, and next year he will become the military captain of the eighth captain of the West Garden, and his ideal is still just to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, and he wants to be named the "General of the Han Dynasty to the West", and the epitaph after his death reads: The tomb of the General Cao Hou of the Han Dynasty and the West Expedition.
According to historical development, in another seven or eight years, Cao Cao will coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes and play with the Han Emperor between applause.
Many things may not be his own dreams, or even his own wishes.
For example, Cao Ang, Dian Wei and others died at the hands of Zhang Xiu, and finally had to accept Zhang Xiu's surrender, and until his death, he did not take revenge.
For example, he executed Queen Fu, Dong Guiren, etc., killed the two princes born to Dong Guiren, and sent three of his own daughters into the harem in one go to serve the puppet emperor Liu Bian.
For example, killing Xun Yu, who had worked all his life for Cao Wei's forces......
It's just that in the four alliances, Xue Weiyang and the Yan family on the bright side, because of the girlfriend relationship between Shen Yuyang and Yan Ruoyu, are natural allies; In private, Ye Teng and Yan Ruoyu are lovers, and the Yan family and Tianma City are also natural allies; What's more, because of the strength of the Sword Alliance, Xue Weiyang and Tianma City intend to get closer to each other, forming a situation where the three of them are now closer to each other among the four quasi-alliances.
Of course, the balance of power is constantly changing, such as the establishment of the Prairie Club, which gave the Overlord Sword Alliance and Xue Weiyang the opportunity to invite allies.
Let the two of them have more places, not only a practical need, but also Ye Teng's intention. Since in the minds of Badao and Xue Weiyang, Tianma City is just equivalent to a first-class force or a quasi-top player force, then Ye Teng also intends to position himself in this way.
This is not only conducive to Xue Weiyang's closeness to himself and reducing the subconscious of the threat of the sword, but also the clumsiness of Tianma City's lack of player talent for its own forces and Ye Teng's clumsiness as a diplomatic newcomer; After all, Ye Teng's goal is not to compete with players for hegemony, and to be able to temporarily shelter in the shade of the sword alliance and Xue Weiyang, for the time being, there are actually many benefits.
At least a few points of hostility from the Shenzhou League and the Xuanyuan League have been reduced.
