4162 can't just think, do it!

"The first two?" Duan Heyu recalled it for a moment and then nodded hurriedly: "Oh yes! The first is money, and the official family wants money, right? How much can you want? Our treasury should currently have 50,000 taels of gold, about 100,000 taels of silver, and copper. ”

"I'm sorry you don't have to." Seeing that the lord of Duan began to report his family property directly, the envoy saw sweat on his forehead, and spread out his national letter and explained carefully: "The first indemnity refers to the payment according to the highest number that your country can bear, but this is optional, you can also choose the second one, surrender and become a vassal state of China, we will appoint officials to come over and take up some statistical and tax positions, but the overall governance is still free to be decided by your country." ”

"Hmm." When Duan Heyu heard this, he also spread out the national letter, and frowned when he looked at the terms.

He asked with some distress, "Can it only be a vassal state?" Is there anything closer? For example, how about the state capital of our official family? ”

Speaking of this, Duan Heyu's eyes lit up suddenly: "Dali Mansion? Hey, Huaxia Dali Mansion, this name is very good! ”

The envoys looked at each other.

After a long period of negotiations, the Chinese envoys finally couldn't screw the stubborn lord of Dali, and said that they would bring the results back to Bianjing to restore their lives.

Duan Heyu, the main head of Dali State, immediately said that he would go together.

With a large number of personnel, precious tributes and a full set of ceremonial utensils, the group marched to Bianjing.

Passing through a number of cities along the way, Duan Heyu was stunned by the scene in Huaxia.

Even in peacetime, he had never seen such a harmonious picture, not to mention that now it is said that China is at war against its neighbors in all directions.

It was unimaginable that there could be such harmony and stability in the territory at such a critical juncture.

The accompanying guards were useless, because there were hardly any bandits and robbers on the road.

There were very few soldiers guarding the main roads at each level, but there was no sign of confusion.

Duan Heyu couldn't help but ask the Huaxia envoys: "With such a scarce force, aren't the officials worried about the stability of the state capitals?" As far as I know, there seems to have been a disturbance not long ago. ”

With a slight pride on his face, the envoy pointed to the soldiers guarding and explained: "That's the immortal army of the Immortal Cultivation Sect, with them guarding it, there is no chaos. ”

"Immortal Cultivator?" Duan Heyu was even more puzzled: "Martial Arts Sect? ”

His wondering was not unusual.

Historically, the relationship between Wulin and the government has not been hostile, but it is definitely not friendly.

Now he actually took the initiative to help the imperial court defend the city?

It's unimaginable!

In this regard, the Chinese envoys only smiled mysteriously and did not explain more.

When I arrived in Bianjing, I saw batches of goods unloaded from the post station or wharf like flowing water, and sent into the imperial city in an orderly manner.

Along the way, there are many shops and restaurants, and there are crowds of people.

Duan Heyu's eyes widened and he sighed: "What a prosperous scene!" ”

Inside the Imperial City.

Li He, who got the notification, casually ordered a large hall and cordially received the lord of Dali.

After the solemn and complicated audience etiquette of Dali, everyone sat down.

According to relevant sources, the conversation between the two sides was extremely short.

On the one hand, the affairs of the new emperor of China are really busy.

On the other hand, the conversation of the lord of Dali is indeed simple.

From the beginning to the end, Waiyu only asked one question.

"Has the Han family decided to dominate the world?"

In fact, in the past years, Dali has asked Song Guo a total of nine times.

But at that time, how dare Song Guo open his mouth, he could only keep refusing while receiving him in a friendly manner.

Now, where would Li He be afraid.

Dafang admits it.

And said that more than a "decision" is made, in fact it is already underway.

Dominate the world?

You can't just think about it, you have to do it!

Others introduced to Duan Heyu that the eastern coastal area was leading the huge amount of money and materials allocated by the imperial court to build a big ship at sea.

Along the way, he was learning about China's recent specific foreign wars, and Duan Heyu understood.

The new emperor of China on the dragon chair was no longer satisfied with just expanding on land.

Too fast!

Everything is too fast! Qingfeng Literature

The new official family is too ambitious and moves too fast!

Duan Heyu used the price of handing over the entire territory of Dali in exchange for a governor of Dali, who was responsible for controlling the affairs of Dali in Huaxia and the subsequent transit of the Huaxia army.

That's right.

When Dali announced its surrender, Huaxia immediately set its sights on Bagan, Siam, Laos, Champa and even the most powerful country in Indochina: Chenla.

Hearing this news, Duan Heyu's feelings were extremely complicated.

For geographical reasons, Dali has many borders with the above-mentioned countries.

Huaxia either didn't make a move, and as soon as he made a move, he threatened many countries to do it together, which made Duan Heyu, the former head of Dali, somewhat lose face.

Dali has been adjacent to them for many years and has not been able to make any achievements in the territory.

If Huaxia is allowed to win it in one fell swoop, won't it prove more and more the incompetence of the Dali Duan clan?

But now that he is attached to China, as a Chinese citizen, he hopes to see the Han soldiers break through the complex waters to the south and fully occupy those rich lands with abundant water.

The two thoughts were fighting in his head, and he couldn't sleep all night.

The next morning, he said goodbye to the new emperor of China, and couldn't wait to return to Dali, return to his palace and close the door, regardless of the wind and rain outside.

Who knows, he thought he got up early, and Ma Kuo was earlier than him.

He personally led a number of envoys to the south with the team of the "Dali Governor".

I'm going to "wholesale" letters to the southern countries.

Previously, Ma Kuo had spoken in front of Li He, saying that he was confident that he could make the Austronesian countries surrender without a fight.

Li He said: Don't be reluctant, don't be reluctant, try to fight as much as you can.

Ma Kuo said: If you don't force it, you won't be forced to beat the slaves again.

Today, in the eyes of Chinese citizens, all non-Chinese citizens are inferior.

And the most suitable identity for inferior people is naturally a hard-working, well-behaved and cheap slave.

In order to be able to obtain a citizenship in China, these foreign slaves would unconditionally obey their masters' orders.

It's much easier than driving the local poor in China.

After all, the "law" stipulates that no matter how poor a Chinese citizen is, he must be paid to work.

。。 But the inferior do not.

March.

Western Xia fell.

All the disobedient Western Xia nobles were buried on the spot.

The army disarmed.

Scattered armed extermination.

The immortal soldiers gradually took over the checkpoints of each city, and not a single standard bow and crossbow was allowed to appear in the whole territory.

The maximum firing range of civilian long-range equipment shall not exceed 100 paces.

If there are fierce beasts that are difficult to deal with in remote areas, you can ask the fairy army to intervene to help.

Some time passed after the order to arrange such an arrangement was transmitted.

Hu Qi personally returned to Bianjing.

said helplessly to Li He: "There is no gun." ”

Three thousand guns, three thousand people.

Scattered throughout the territory, even if only two of each city remained, it would be overstretched.

Li He pondered.

If you want to occupy the whole world with the guns brought by the reincarnators, you still take it for granted after all.

Is there another set of plans, with guns as attacks and arrows as defense?

At best, the city is a little unstable, but the pace of expansion can be maintained.

Whether it's going all out, or it's going one step at a time.

He was a little unsure, and decided to put this issue on hold for the time being, and wait for Lin Kai and the others to come back.

But at this moment.

Suddenly there was news from outside.

The Ma Kuan envoy to the Austronesian countries has an accident!
