Chapter 602: Gifts

The fourth day after the end of the Battle of Pigpen Slope.

In four days. The Wuhuan coalition army and the Beiping army tacitly did not make any major moves, and the county was still surrounded by the Wuhuan coalition army, and the two armies were far away and peaceful, which was very different from the previous vicious battle of not dying or you dying.

The Flying Wing Battalion received a "gift" from Gongsun Chan outside the city of Beiping, and according to a certain city lord and Gongsun Zhan, "this is a symbol of the friendship between Fengxiang and Beiping."

Even though a few days ago, the powerful arrows of the Flying Wing Battalion had just killed and wounded hundreds of White Horse Righteous Servants, the blood on their hands had not been washed, and the bones of the men who died in battle were not cold, but on this day, when the Flying Wing Battalion appeared outside Beiping City, it was still greeted with a grand welcome.

Many players can't help but sigh, "It seems that the world is always full of love." ”

More players were puzzled, "Isn't Fengxiang City on Liu Yu's side?" Since it is a player from the hostile camp, how can it swagger to shake hands with the Gongsun Chan camp and make peace? This is against the rules of the game! ”

Actually, this is not surprising.

Not many people know that although Feng Xiang was invited by the Talan tribe to join the Wuhuan people at the beginning, in fact, Feng Xiang never joined Liu Yu's camp, and the appearance of the camp mission was after Feng Xiang City sent troops to Youzhou. Ah Niu doesn't need to join the camp like other players to participate in this war.

In the same way, Fengxiang City, which did not join the camp, could not obtain a certificate of combat exploits after killing the Beiping army in the war, which also means that Fengxiang could not directly benefit from the battle exploits of the GuΓ² camp.

Wars are often cruel, diplomacy is often hypocritical, although Ah Niu also knows that Gongsun Chan can't be unscrupulous about Feng Xiang's help to the Wuhuan coalition army, and the Flying Wing Battalion let Bai Ma Yi go back home from the ashes and sprinkle a handful of salt on Gongsun Zhan's bloody wounds, but now, the "friendship" that the two of them have expressed can definitely make people who don't know why think, "The relationship is so good!" ”

"Ah Niu City Lord, this batch of things will be handed over to you, please say hello to the teacher on my behalf." Gongsun Chan said.

A certain city lord smiled, "I will help Gongsun Taishou bring this sentence, and these goods will be properly kept, and Gongsun Taishou will not be disappointed." ”

Speaking of this, Ah Niu glanced at Gongsun Zhan and said casually: "Oh, by the way, if Gongsun Taishou has something to find Mr. Lu Zhi in the future, you can send someone to Fengxiang to talk about it, and Ah Niu will do it for you." The distance from Beiping to Qingzhou is always much closer than to Luoyang. ”

Gongsun Zhan's old face turned red, and he naturally understood the meaning of a certain city lord's words.

Gongsun Zhan has always believed that "as long as the hoe dances well, there is no corner of the wall that cannot be dug down", and he hopes that Lu Zhi will settle in Beiping, and Lu Zhi's value is immeasurable. For this. Beiping Taishou privately sent people to Luoyang to lobby, Ah Niu's words just now were obviously very dissatisfied with Gongsun Zhan's behavior in that matter, and warned in this way.

"A good gesture from the city lord of Aniu, thank you in advance."

Gongsun Zan said in a sneering voice, and now he had a hunch: it was almost impossible for Lu Zhi to abandon Fengxiang and switch to Beiping. If it weren't for that, the matter of Feng Xiang's army sending troops to Youzhou, Lu Zhi should send someone to remind him no matter what!

Thinking of Xu Wushan's first battle, Zhao Yun pointed out that "Fengxiang sent troops and obtained Lu Zhi's understanding in advance", "Lu Zhi also did not agree with Gongsun Zhan's practice in the Beiping bloody case", and Gongsun Zhan's mood was even heavier.

The cavalry of the Flying Wing Battalion, under the leadership of Zilong, was handing over the goods with the Beiping Army, Ah Niu hesitated, and said to Gongsun Zhan: "Ah Niu knows that Gongsun will not let go of the Wuhuan people after the incident, as a Han Chinese, Ah Niu still has a heartfelt word that is not unpleasant. ”

Gongsun Chan was stunned, as a bridge between the two armies to negotiate peace, Ah Niu's identity was not suitable to say such things at this sensitive time, Gongsun Chan couldn't help but have some doubts about whether a certain city lord wanted to take this opportunity to probe his own mouth. However, Gongsun Chan soon abandoned this idea.

Gongsun Chan has always hated the Hu people in the north, and this war with the Wuhuan coalition army suffered a lot of losses, if the arrogant Gongsun Chan does not want to take revenge, I am afraid that no one will believe it. After all, Ah Niu is not a Wuhuan person, but a five-grade official of the Han Dynasty, since he said it so frankly, Gongsun Zan didn't want to deny it, and said in a deep voice: "Ah Niu City Lord, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Although Beiping suffered heavy losses in this war, the Wuhuan tribes were also injured, but their biggest losses were not on the battlefield, but the production of the tribes was affected. If Gongsun Taishou insisted on taking revenge on the Wuhuan people, no tribe would be able to resist the attack of the Beiping army, what Ah Niu wanted to say was. Gongsun Taishou needs to think about the consequences of doing so.

The Beiping army's revenge on one or two Wuhuan tribes may not incur the retaliation of the entire Wuhuan tribe, but when the Wuhuan people realized that the Beiping army wanted to defeat each tribe one by one, it was only a matter of time before they joined forces again. Once that situation occurs, the entire right Beiping County will be destroyed in the flames of war, and they will not hesitate to wipe out the Beiping army, so as to prevent the Beiping army from relieving itself and bringing danger to the Wuhuan troops.

Even with the help of other forces, Youbeiping was lucky to survive the war, but the loss of economy and population was inevitable.

That's all I have to say, please think twice, just do it! ”

No matter how conceited Gongsun Chan was, how hostile he was to the Hu people, and when it came to his own fundamental interests, Gongsun Chan did not dare to be careless.

This war has greatly damaged the vitality of Youbeiping, and also made Gongsun Zan realize that the consequences of angering the entire Wuhuan clan are by no means something that the power of a county in Youbeiping can bear, and there is another such war, the Beiping army is dominating Youzhou, and then the dream of dominating the whole country will completely come to naught, and even whether it can survive under the protection of strong enemies is a problem.

The stakes in it Gongsun Chan had actually been considered for a long time, but in any case, Ah Niu's words were obviously out of kindness, which made Gongsun Chan reduce his hostility towards Fengxiang City. With an unnatural smile on his face, Gongsun Chan replied noncommittally: "Thank you." ”

Ah Niu sighed in his heart, although Gongsun Chan did not say it explicitly, but judging from his expression, it was obvious that he did not dispel the idea of revenge against the Wuhuan people, and that was the temperament of Gongsun Chan.

Ah Niu's persuasion of Gongsun Zan this time is not an addiction to being a peacemaker, let alone the extravagant hope of competing for the "Nobel Peace Prize" in the game, if these words can reduce the hatred of the Beiping Army towards Feng Xiang, Ah Niu's purpose will be half achieved.

Better half. It also needs Ah Niu to be cheeky and clear-mouthed.

"Maybe Gongsun Taishou also knows that Fengxiang has long-term trade cooperation with the Wuhuan people, and the place of the transaction is Port-au-Prince, more than 100 miles southeast of Beiping City. Ah Niu has a reluctant request, hoping that Gongsun Taishou will not obstruct our normal trade, and in return, the goods sold by Fengxiang to the Wuhuan people will not include the rhubarb crossbow, a weapon with amazing lethality. ”

This is what Ah Niu is most concerned about!

Feng Xiang's trade with the Talan tribe can only be transported by sea, with the war and the Wuhuan tribes to establish a connection, Feng Xiang and the Wuhuan tribes of trade volume will be significantly increased, if Gongsun Chan is unwilling to give in on this matter, Feng Xiang has to avoid the right Beiping, in Youzhou to find another port, it will be a troublesome matter.

Fengxiang's trade with the Talan tribe was carried out under Gongsun Zhan's nose, and to say that this kind of large-scale military horse trade, the Beiping army was completely unaware of it, and it was obviously self-deception.

Gongsun Zhan frowned, Ah Niu's request made him a little uncomfortable, the hatred between the Beiping army and the Wuhuan people has been difficult to resolve, and now the Fengxiang city lord actually wants the Beiping army to accept the Wuhuan people to trade in the territory...... It seems to be a bit of a strong man's difficulty.

However, Gongsun Chan was also inconvenient to refuse.

Fengxiangcheng played a key role in quelling the dispute, not only freeing the Beiping army from the quagmire of war, but also preserving the face of Gongsun Zhan, who seemed to be a little unreasonable if he did not say anything.

Ah Niu took the initiative to promise that he would not sell the rhubarb crossbow to the Wuhuan departments, which was also an initiative to show goodwill, and at the same time, he also vaguely pointed out that if the Beiping Army refused to give in, after Fengxiang chose another port, what he wanted to sell to the Wuhuan people would not be something that the Beiping Army could manage.

Moreover. After this battle, what Beiping needs is to recuperate and vigorously resume production, and it is impossible to use troops on a large scale against the Wuhuan people in the short term, and there will be a period of peace between Beiping and the Wuhuan people. Gongsun Zhan thought for a moment and said: "Since the city lord of Ah Niu has opened his mouth, I have no choice but to agree, and I also ask the city lord of Ah Niu not to forget his promise, the big yellow crossbow cannot be sold to the Hu people, and the trade between Wuhuan merchants and Fengxiang City, the Beiping army will not obstruct it."

But there is one point, Youbeiping was devastated by those Wuhuan people, and a lot of money is needed for reconstruction, so I am going to add an additional trade tax in Youbeiping, and draw 1o% of the total value of goods as an additional tax as the reconstruction fund of Youbeiping. Considering the friendly relations between Fengxiang City and Beiping. Fengxiang's transaction tax can be appropriately reduced, what do you think of 5%? ”

Gongsun Zhan is obviously pumping oil and water from it in disguise, since he can't put an end to the transaction between Feng Xiang and the Wuhuan people, instead of forcing Feng Xiang to choose another port in Youzhou to "smuggle" dangerous goods, it is better to let Feng Xiang's transaction with the Wuhuan people under his own surveillance.

It is also possible to take advantage of this opportunity to profit from it, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

This is Guan Jing's mentions, and Gongsun Zhan thinks so, even if he issues the corresponding proclamation.

To be sure, the 5% additional trade tax was not high, and even if Fengxiang had chosen another port of trade, it would only be a matter of time before the local princes came up with a name to collect taxes from it after such a long and huge transaction.

However, Ah Niu was obviously very dissatisfied with Gongsun Zhan's suggestion, and his expression was painful.

"This ...... The total amount of trade between Fengxiang and the Wuhuan tribes is very large, and the excessively high tax amount may not be conducive to the increase in the volume of trade, and those Wuhuan tribes are likely to be overwhelmed and ask for another trading port outside of Youbeiping, in that case, the loss of Youbeiping will be great. ”

"The economic situation of Fengxiang City has not been ideal, and Gongsun Taishou also knows that there are many harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in these years, and if another heavy tax is added, Ah Niu can only drink the northwest wind."

"The high-grade war horses sold by the Wuhuan people, if Gongsun Taishou needs them, Fengxiang can transfer them at zero profit. Everyone is a minister of the same palace, if Ah Niu cares too much about this petty profit, he may not seem too stingy, how can he be so stingy...... Is 5% a bit higher? ”

Ah Niu was still talking there, and Gongsun Zhan's face was half darkened, "Otherwise, the transaction tax rate between Fengxiang and the Wuhuan tribes will be reduced to 2%, and it can't be lower!" ”

A certain city lord thought for a while and asked, "Is the additional transaction tax levied by both the buyer and the seller?" ”

"Yes."

"For example, if Fengxiang City and the Wuhuan people make a certain transaction, Fengxiang exchanges one million gold grain for the equivalent of Wuhuan war horses, and the transaction tax rate is 2%. So the trade tax that Feng Xiang needs to pay is 20,000 gold? ”

"That's right."

Ah Niu breathed a sigh of relief, he had been a little worried before, but he was afraid that Beiping would double the tax, in that case, Feng Xiang would need to pay twice the tax for the same transaction, that is, the one million gold grain sold and the one million gold war horse purchased would be taxed.

Now it seems that this concern is unfounded.

Gongsun Chan is not too dark in this regard.

Ah Niu's face was full of smiles, "The Beiping army and the Wuhuan people have just experienced a vicious battle, and they want to collect taxes from them, I'm afraid it's not the time yet, Ah Niu is really not sure that he can persuade the Wuhuan people to pay taxes obediently, and if he is not careful, he may intensify the conflict, and even force Feng Xiang to choose another port."

Su Wen Taishou is magnanimous, and he also hopes to focus on the overall situation and exempt the Wuhuan tribe from taxes. ”

Gongsun Zan also knew that under the current situation, if he refused to give in and insisted on collecting taxes from Wuhuan merchants, the result would only be to cut off his own money, and he would not even get the tax in Fengxiang City.

Concessions are inevitable.

Outside the county of Wuzhong, in the temporary camp of the Wuhuan coalition army, Ah Niu solemnly returned the goods to Wuwang. This treasure does not actually belong to the Namu tribe, but Uwang is the temporary leader of the coalition army, so it should be handed over to this lord for reason.

The return of this batch of goods marks the military operation of the Wuhuan coalition army and the achievement of the most basic goal.

After nearly two months of hard fighting, the Wuhuan coalition finally recaptured what belonged to them, and although they did not compete for complete success, they were unable to achieve greater results.

The Wuhuan people had a reason to withdraw from the army.

The war is over!

The player forces participating in the camp war can cash in on their exploits in Youzhou Mansion, which is originally a camp war in the name of Liu Yu, and Youzhou Mansion has already calculated the gains of players in this camp.

According to the previous agreement, the Wuhuan tribes will pay for the player's exploits.

Due to Gongsun Zhan's persistence, the players who joined Liu Yu's camp did not have much gain, and the Wuhuan tribes did not have much blood. Moreover, they have looted a large amount of money, materials, and a large number of people handed over to Youzhou Prefecture in the scorched earth policy, which is enough to pay the player's compensation.

In fact, it was Gongsun Chan who really paid for this war!

In addition to the prestige that all players like, lord players need rewards such as talents and blueprints that can promote the territory exhibition, while adventure gangs mostly like benefits such as skill books.

The remuneration paid by the Wuhuan coalition can't actually directly meet the needs of the player forces, but fortunately this is a game.

In the faction mission, there is a unique conversion system within the NPC faction, which can convert resources such as funds, items, and population into other equivalent items, and adjust the contradiction between the different value orientations of the NPC faction and the player faction in this way.

It doesn't matter what the conversion rate of each resource is, what matters is that as long as the player has achieved enough merits, they can rely on them to get corresponding rewards. Of course, there will be a certain range of choices for the rewards that are open for each faction mission, and normal combat exploits can only be exchanged for some ordinary rewards, more special rewards, and usually they can only be obtained by achieving a good ranking in the camp.

The players of the two camps were busy redeeming the prizes, and the Fengxiang City Lord, who had not joined the camp, was a little depressed, but fortunately, the adults of the Wuhuan tribes did not forget the contribution of the first city in the world.

At the dinner before the disbandment of the Wuhuan Alliance, the adults of the various tribes gather, and after this dinner, the warriors of each tribe will follow their adults and return to the tribe. The Fengxiang City Lord and the Flying Wing Battalion will also set off the next day.

After two rounds of drinking, Lord Wuwang came to Ah Niu's side with wine, and the adults of the Wuhuan tribes present stopped the noise, only to see Wuwang raise his glass and say: "The Wuhuan people who have personally experienced this war will never forget the help of the JΓ¬ Fengxiang brothers, Fengxiang is our friend of all Wuhuan people!" Fill this cup! ”

Ah Niu stood up, nodded slightly, and then drank it all, so booze, the Wuhuan people present cheered.

Wu Wang said with a smile: "In order to express our respect for the selfless assistance of the Lord of Aniu City, after the deliberation of the adults of the various tribes, we decided to give Fengxiang City three thousand high-grade war horses, and I also hope that the Lord of Aniu City will not refuse, this is a little bit of the heart of all Wuhuan tribes!" ”

These three thousand high-grade war horses are distributed among the various tribes, that is, a matter of one hundred, and the gifts given by each tribe are within their capabilities, but for Feng Xiang, it is already a windfall. Three thousand high-grade Wuhuan war horses, even according to the current market in Youzhou, their value has exceeded fifteen million gold, which shows what an amazing wealth this is!

After a little resignation, a city lord accepted the gift of the Wuhuan people very respectfully, according to Ah Niu's later statement, "The Wuhuan people have a bold temperament, if they insist on not being accepted, it is not beautiful, and they will think that our Fengxiang City thinks their gifts are too thin, and they can't live up to their hearts." ”

It seems that if Ah Niu does not hurry up to accept the gift of the Wuhuan people, he may hurt the kind and pure feelings of all the Wuhuan people, and the Fengxiang City Lord, who has always had a benevolent reputation, cannot tolerate such a thing.

In any case, Ah Niu would not admit that he agreed so quickly because he was worried that the solid-eyed Wuhuan people would think that he was not interested in the 3,000-grade war horse, and that excessive prevarication might make Lord Uwang take back the gift.

Lord Futon, Zalu and Qianluo also came to the side of a certain city lord, and the three of them all looked solemn, even Zalu, who had a good personal relationship with Ah Niu, wanted to speak and stopped. Ah Niu only said that the parting was imminent, and the three of them were a little reluctant, so they smiled and said: "Lord Futon, Elder Qianluo, Brother Zalu, if you want to live in Qingzhou, you only need to send someone to inform you, Ah Niu will definitely send a boat to Youzhou to meet you, and the adults of Fengxiang City will always be open for you." By the way, the Flying Wing Battalion will return the borrowed war horses, five hundred and fifty-four war horses, and return them to Zhao! ”

Fengxiang City is fighting against Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Yicong for the Taran tribe, and not everyone can bear that kind of pressure, and it seems that it is not too much to get some "mental damage fees". Ah Niu was still hesitating whether the Flying Wing Battalion should "accidentally forget to return the horse", and even took the horse back to Qingzhou by boat, and the Langtalan tribe was embarrassed to say anything.

But now that the Wuhuan tribes have sent out 3,000 high-grade war horses, Ah Niu is really embarrassed to fish for oil and water on the Taran tribe.

Fton frowned, "This...... Fengxiang City was involved in this war at the invitation of our Talan tribe, and it is reasonable that our Talan tribe should have some expressions, and those war horses, the city lord of Aniu should keep them. We came to find the city lord of Aniu at this time, in fact, there are other important matters to discuss, but it is not for the more than 500 war horses. ”

"Something else to discuss?"

Ah Niu couldn't help but be stunned, and after a little silence, Ah Niu smiled and said, "Lord Futon has a long-term vision, isn't it for the trade between Fengxiang and the Wuhuan tribes?" If Fengxiang City trades with dozens of Wuhuan tribes one by one, it will not only be a large workload, but also inefficient, and it is indeed necessary to find a general agent among the Wuhuan tribes.

Feng Xiang and the Talan tribe had a very pleasant trade cooperation in the past, and if Lord Futon was not too troublesome, Ah Niu would very much welcome the Taran tribe to become the trade representative of the Wuhuan tribe. ”

In Ah Niu's opinion, Fton did not hesitate to send more than 500 high-grade war horses, it is likely that he has other intentions, and the sky will not drop pies for no reason. In the current situation, only becoming a trade agent of the Wuhuan tribe is worthy of the Taran tribe, and after becoming an agent, the other Wuhuan tribes will pay some price for trading with Fengxiang City through the hands of GuΓ²futon.

In this way, the Taran tribe can earn extra profits from other Wuhuan tribes!

To Ah Niu's surprise, Fton shook his head solemnly again, "Ah Niu, what I want to say is actually ...... The Taran tribe wants to join Fengxiang City! ”

"What!"

The wine glass in Ah Niu's hand fell to the ground, and the crystal liquid was scattered like pearls. (To be continued)
