Chapter 93: The First Border City (Thank you, Diba, for liking to read books and rewarding the helmsman)

After sending back the envoys of the Great Heavenly Empire, there was no reaction from the Great Celestial Empire, which made the people of the Stone Dynasty breathe a sigh of relief.

But Wang Zhong did not relax, and in order to consolidate his power, he began to build a city in one of the tribes closest to the Great Celestial Empire.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of the Great Celestial Empire, he named the city Trade City, that is, to facilitate the city of trade with the Great Celestial Empire.

Construction is in full swing.

There are many mountains in the wasteland, and the city is built on the edge of the mountain.

No bricks?

It's okay, a lot of money hired craftsmen from the Great Celestial Dynasty to come over, set up a brick factory, and while burning bricks, they began to dig foundations and build houses.

It's just that time still waits for no one, and after three months, the spies sent by Wang Zhong to the border cities of the Great Celestial Empire came to report, and the Great Celestial Empire sent 50,000 troops to come in five ways.

Because the speed of transmission of information in ancient times was too slow, by the time Wang Zhong knew, the 50,000 troops of the Great Heavenly Dynasty had already entered the largest city on the border, Dongcheng.

After knowing the news, Wang Chong's brows furrowed.

The defenders of Dongcheng originally had as many as 30,000, plus the surrounding satellite tribes, there were more than half of them.

If this starts, they will have to retreat, wait for the opposing troops to move away from their base camp, and then start with their supplies.

With a way to deal with it, Wang Chong's mood is much better.

But in his heart, Wang Zhong was unwilling to fight with the Great Celestial Empire.

He is not the kind of ambitious person, and the task is only to unify the Great Wilderness and fight with the Great Celestial Empire, firstly, it is too risky, and secondly, it is unnecessary, what if he loses?

After all, in this life, the conditions given to him are really too poor, how can he fight with a country like the Great Celestial Empire that is in its heyday?

After thinking about it, Wang Chong did not hesitate to arrange Dahe and let him bring all the beauties and some local products from the tribe to Dongcheng.

…………

"Dahe, you also know that the Cave City has gathered nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Great Celestial Empire, and the surrounding affiliated tribes of the Great Celestial Empire are also showing signs of being ready to move, there is no doubt that once we make a move, the Great Celestial Empire will definitely carry which subordinate tribes to attack us, we can't wait."

On the square, Wang Zhong pointed to the fifty carriages behind Dahe, and sighed: "This time, we must remember that we must remember to lower our posture, our strategy is not to fight, but we must also let them know that we don't want to fight, but we are not afraid of fighting, and those who offend my Stone Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away." ”

"Knowing the leader, I will tell the Great Heaven Pilgrimage what you told me, as it is."

"Well, Dahe, you've been with me for the longest time, don't let me down." After speaking, he handed Dahe three tips.

Each of these three tips has 123.

"These are three tips, there are three ways in it, if you see that those people don't believe us, you take out the first tip, if the other party is still not satisfied, take out the second tip, if the other party is still aggressive, take out the third tip."

Wang Zhong solemnly reminded: "These three tips are the most important things for your trip, remember, no matter what, you can't lose them." ”

Dahe was slightly stunned, and carefully took the three tips, but there was confusion in his eyes.

What are the tricks in these three tips, and why don't you talk about them in advance? Opening the bag, can it really solve the crisis of their Stone Dynasty?

It's weird, it's so weird.

But...... No matter how strange it is, he also believes in Wang Chong's ability.

"On the way, you are not allowed to open the things in here, and you can only tell them when you get to the court, understand?" Wang Zhong stared at the river and continued, "This is an order. ”

Dahe's heart sank, and he hurriedly bowed his head: "My subordinates understand." ”

"Alright, let's go."

"Yes!"

Then, Dahe, Erbai and their children reluctantly said goodbye, and the mighty convoy finally set off.

Looking at the backs of these people in Dahe, Wang Dynasty sighed.

He has no choice but to do it now.

The Great Heavenly Empire is approaching the city, and once a war is launched, there is no room for maneuver.

So he sent Dahe to the Great Celestial Empire, hoping that the other party could see his sincerity.

After the river passed, the convoy entered the cave city and was warmly received by Song Shuhang, the lord of the city.

Although it is said that the two countries are on the verge of war, Song Shuhang also got the news here, and if he can try not to fight, if the Stone Dynasty is disobedient and takes the initiative to attack other tribes, then he must learn a good lesson.

After knowing that these gifts were given to His Majesty by Wang Chong, Song Shuhang breathed a sigh of relief, he understood that this was Wang Chong's deliberate attempt to send soldiers to reconcile.

To tell the truth, as the city lord of a border city, Song Shuhang didn't want to fight, so he arranged a guide to lead the convoy of Dahe to the imperial capital.

Before the river reached the imperial capital, Wang Chong did not have to worry about the other party's attack for the time being, so he began a vigorous trade activity.

Although the wasteland is barren, there are many precious materials.

Wood, stone, furs, these things were transported to the cave city in a steady stream, and then exchanged for horses, paper, and all kinds of precious metals.

The more he came into contact with the Great Celestial Empire, Wang Chong deeply felt that the strength of this Great Celestial Empire was not comparable to that of his Stone Dynasty.

Therefore, peace talks are a wise choice.

But at the same time, he can't make people feel that they are easy to bully, after all, he is also a person who has mixed up above the court, and he knows that there are many people above the court.

Some people are belligerent and must advocate war.

Some people are kind-hearted and must advocate peace.

There is also a group of people who throw rat bogeys, swaying from side to side.

Therefore, in order to avoid war, in addition to sending the necessary sincerity, he must also let the other side throw a mouse, so that there may be room for maneuver.

These three tips are his sure victory this time.

The reason why he didn't let Dahe know in advance was because he didn't want to surprise him too much.

Now, Wang Zhong has also figured out the map of the Great Wilderness.

The original stone tribe was at the end of the great wilderness, and it was a huge jungle when it entered the jungle, which was called the Tianqi Forest, which means that this is the Tianqi Forest, and with the current human scientific and technological means, it is impossible to pass through the Tianqi Forest.

On both sides of the Great Wilderness are continuous mountain ranges, and the mountains used to be other countries, so the entire Great Wilderness only borders the Great Heavenly Empire.

Strictly speaking, if there was no Great Celestial Empire, he would be able to easily integrate the remaining less than twenty tribes.

But the reality is that there is no if in this world, and the only remaining tribes are all subordinate tribes of the Great Celestial Empire, and moving them means that they are enemies of the Great Celestial Empire.

So it's hard to do here!

"I hope Dahe can succeed, he has a calm personality and is thoughtful, and he should be fine." Wang Zhong picked up the goat's milk wine and drank it all.

…………

More than a month later, Dahe's convoy finally entered the imperial capital of the Great Celestial Empire.

Only after this entry did they know how awesome this Great Celestial Empire was.

The degree of prosperity, compared with their great wilderness, is simply a day and a place.

"If it weren't for the wood chief, I'm afraid I'd have spent my whole life in the Great Wilderness, fighting for a few potatoes to survive."

Taiga thought to himself.

Although the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty looked down on the desolate people, after all, it was an envoy who came, and the necessary etiquette was still required.

Therefore, as soon as they arrived at the city gate, the officials of the Great Heavenly Empire came to pick them up.

A day later, Dahe's convoy finally entered the Celestial Dynasty City and came to the Council Hall, where Li Qinglong and the civil and military officials discussed every day.

"Xuan! Stone Tribal Envoy Great River, Meet! As the voice of a eunuch fell, Dahe knew that he was about to meet the Holy Saint of the Great Heavenly Pilgrimage, Li Qinglong.

If you don't feel nervous, that's impossible.

But it can't be helped, Dahe knows that the burden on his shoulders is heavy.

When he came here, although he was courteous, he could also see the contempt and ridicule of these people from the eyes and tone of these people.

For example, when he was just announced, he only called the Stone Tribe, not the Stone Dynasty, indicating that the Great Heavenly Empire had not yet recognized their country.

After all, they are treated like barbarians.

He tightened the three tips in his arms, and secretly said in his heart: The wood leader is clever, since I have known him, his plans and actions have never been wrong, and these three tips must be useful this time, and I can't live up to the leader's expectations of me......

Thinking of this, Dahe slowly stepped up the stairs.
