Chapter 297: The Remuneration of the Middleman

After Changsun Ping finished speaking, there was a long silence in the banquet.

No one spoke.

"If Xia Gong is willing to match us with Chen Guo, my country is willing to provide the practice of Mingguang Armor to Xia Hou and our Mo Dao forging method!" Seeing that Wang Yong and Wang Ze had not agreed for a long time, Changsun Ping ruthlessly took out the current pinnacle of defensive armor and weapons in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

But Wang Yong still didn't answer, in the case that he already had a horse slashing giant sword and various armors, the so-called best armor and Mo sword in the Northern Zhou Dynasty couldn't attract Wang Yong's attention at all, so he glanced at Wang Ze and motioned for Wang Ze to speak.

Of course, Wang Ze should immediately go up to his father, he smiled and looked at Changsun Ping and said: "These two are the most sophisticated national weapons in your country, or don't pass on the subtlety lightly, in addition, we also have horse swords and heavy armor!" ”

As he spoke, a team of armored ironclad soldiers walked outside the lobby door with horse-cutting giant swords in their hands, and the sparkling iron armor cooperated with the horse-cutting giant sword weighing dozens of catties in the hands of these soldiers, flashing with a cold light, so that Changsun Ping didn't say a word for a long time.

As a son of the Northern Zhou Jiangmen family, he could see at a glance that these horse slashing giant swords were not much different from their Mo swords, and it seemed that these giant swords were longer, although he couldn't see the lines on the knife body clearly, but he could also guess the excellent quality of this steel.

Now Changsun Ping was a little dumbfounded, he thought that Xia Guo was just a grass platform, but now he found that Xia Guo is not only stronger than himself in silk weaving, wool weaving, agriculture, etc., but also stronger than himself in weapons and iron smelting, so people don't have much requirements for their own place at all.

Just when the eldest grandson Ping was a little sneering, Yu Wenzhi, a tsundere young man who had not spoken, suddenly said unexpectedly: "There have been no good horses in the East China Sea since ancient times, and I see that even Xia Gong and Xiahou don't have a good horse, so my country is willing to give you twenty horses from the Western Regions!" Ten Dawan sweat and blood horses as a reward! ”

"Shhhhh

A series of inhalations sounded in the hall one after another, how could a military general not know the value of a Western Regions BMW, even if it was an ordinary Western Regions BMW that could not be taken for millions of dollars, let alone a sweaty BMW with a value of more than that.

At this time, having a horse in the family is like having a private car, and BMW not only means value but also your status, especially the sweaty BMW, which is extremely difficult to obtain, compared to the so-called tens of millions of luxury sports cars in later generations.

Because of the distance of thousands of miles from the Western Regions in the past, coupled with the continuous wars with the Northern Qi Dynasty, it was impossible for Wang Yong and Wang Ze to buy any fine horses from the Western Regions.

What's more, as the most important strategic resource at this time, war horses are controlled by all countries very strictly, even if you can buy excellent war horses from the Western Regions, they will be forcibly seized on the way through various countries, and you are not allowed to transport these war horses out of the country at all.

Therefore, the horses that Wang Yong, Wang Ze and his son bought from the Khitan and Liaodong tribes are already very good war horses, and even the war horses that Wang Yong and Wang Ze ride on weekdays are eliminated by the Khitans, although they are much better than other war horses.

Without good horse breeds, it is impossible to breed excellent war horses, so in the past two years, although Wang Ze has continued to promote the cultivation of excellent horse breeds in Jeju Island, but limited by the congenital disadvantages of these horse breeds, the war horses bred are a little better than their parents.

If you want to breed excellent war horses, it is impossible to breed too good war horses without more than ten generations of current war horses, and Wang Ze cannot take decades or hundreds of years to do this kind of waste of time and energy.

The best way for Wang Ze is to use the best stallion in the world as the paternal parent, and then breed a war horse suitable for the local climate of Middle-earth with the Khitan horse, and the sweat and blood BMW in Yuwen's straight mouth is undoubtedly the most ideal horse breed.

Wang Yong and Wang Ze were very stunned at first by the words 'sweat and blood BMW' thrown out by Yu Wenzhi, and then they were even more surprised to think that who said that this guy is a mediocre person? What if an average person could find his weaknesses all at once?

In Wang Yong and Wang Ze, except for the fact that horses are relatively obvious weaknesses, the others are not worse than the Northern Zhou, and there are even many aspects that are much stronger than the Northern Zhou and Northern Qi, and I didn't expect such a weakness to be seen by Yu Wenzhi at a glance.

Anyway, no matter how inferior Yu Wenzhi's character is, no matter how bad his life is, Wang Yong and Wang Ze don't dare to look at Yu Wenzhi with their original contemptuous eyes, this guy is also a person who hides deeply! Ambiguous 43

After Wang Yong glanced at Wang Ze, Liu Xin, and Pu Yangxun, he finally spoke for the first time: "Thank you for the gift, this is exactly what we urgently need, thank you." However, since your country is willing to reconcile with Chen, is it willing to return to Chen? ”

The eldest Sun Ping next to him heard Yu Wenzhi's words at first, and immediately nodded again and again, and when he heard Wang Yong's words, he didn't care about anything else, and immediately grabbed the words and retorted: "Xia Gong's words are too much, this land of Yiliang Erzhou was originally taken by our prime minister from Nanliang; Moreover, these two places were also invited by Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang Yuan, and they were the return of Dacheng for defeating Emperor Yuan's sixth brother Xiao Lun and eighth brother Xiao Ji, so how could it be regarded as the land of Chen State? ”

"So if these lands cannot be returned to the state of Chen, how can reconciliation between the state of Chen and your country be guaranteed? Your country and Chen Guo are both friends who have formed an alliance with us, and I still hope that we can ensure friendly exchanges between the two countries and jointly deal with Northern Qi! Wang Yong asked with some hypocrisy.

At this time, Yu Wenzhi began to speak again, and he said to Wang Yong with a grin: "Xia Gong, Xia Hou, as long as Chen Guo is willing to make peace with me in the Great Zhou armistice, my country is willing to return the entire land of Ningzhou to Chen Guo!" In this way, we can see the sincerity of our country! ”

Wang Ze was almost slapped in the face by Yu Wenzhi's shamelessness, can your sister be more shameless? Use this place in Ningzhou in exchange for peace with Nan Chen? Thanks to what you think about!

Many people may not know that Ningzhou is a place where many people may not know, since the Western Jin Dynasty unified the Three Kingdoms, the southern part of Yizhou was separately demarcated, and a separate Ningzhou was established, and the specific scope was most of Yunnan and the western region of Guizhou in later generations.

These places were remote and barbaric places that did not obey the king until the Ming and Qing dynasties of later generations, and from time to time there would be a large number of Tusi and chieftains rebelling, not to mention the northern and southern dynasties where the central power was relatively declining.

A large number of tribes attacked each other, although there were officials from the Northern Zhou or Southern Chen in some places, but it would be good if they could save their lives, so don't mention anything about controlling the place.

It was not until the establishment of the Sui Dynasty that these lands that were not actually controlled by themselves were simply demarcated out of their own territory, and then during the Tang Dynasty, there were many local regimes and a large number of tribal forces led by Nanzhao and Dali, which did not mean that the central government could control it if you wanted to.

Although Wang Ze didn't know the specific situation of Ningzhou now, he could know what was going on there by thinking about it with his feet, and now Nan Chen couldn't even control Dongning Prefecture in his own territory, let alone the more distant Ningzhou.

However, Wang Ze also knew that wanting the Northern Zhou Dynasty to return the land of Yiliang Erzhou was simply a joke, and the country of abundance in the Chengdu Plain in Yizhou was an important financial place in the Guanzhong region from the Western Han Dynasty, and an important supplement to the strength of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Moreover, this place is not only rich in products, but also the dangerous terrain of the Three Gorges, which is extremely difficult for foreign enemies to invade, such an easy to defend and difficult to attack, and occupies the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

And the more fierce dispute in Xiangyang is not to think about it, here is not only the throat key of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, but also an important node connecting the Guanzhong region of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, from here to the west can lead to Hanzhong, cutting off the north-south connection of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

To the north, you can attack the important town of Nanyang in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, you can also enter Yizhou through Shangyong in the southwest, and go to the Guanlong region, the core of the Northern Zhou rule, in the northwest, so Xiangyang is also the lifeblood of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and it is impossible to give it to Southern Chen.

Therefore, Changsun Ping stood up and said: "Xia Gong and Xiahou atone, the ownership of the land of Yiliang and Liangzhou must not be discussed, and Xiangyang is the lifeblood of my Great Zhou, I will not be too upside down and give people a handle, but we are willing to take the land occupied by both sides as the boundary and stop fighting!" ”

Seeing that Wang Ze nodded slightly, he went on to increase: "In addition, we are also willing to provide Chen Guo with 3,000 Tuguhun excellent war horses to show our country's sincerity, so I still implore Xia Gong and Xia Hou to speak for our country, so that Chen Guo can agree!" ”

"Da Lang, what do you think?" After listening to Changsun Ping's words, Wang Yong poked his head and asked Wang Ze in a low voice, this kind of thing mainly depends on Nan Chen, so Wang Yong is very unsure, but the horses promised by the Northern Zhou are really tempting.

Wang Ze thought for a while and said fiercely: "What's the matter if we just promise him?" Anyway, the rest of the matter has to rely on them to negotiate with Nan Chen, we just need to pull them together and get the twenty Western Regions BMWs and ten sweaty BMWs first! Anyway, we don't suffer! ”

Pay attention to it, Wang Yong has a score in his heart, and he smiled and said: "Since this is the case, then I will write a letter, and then let Da Lang personally take you to Nanchen, so that everyone can sit together and discuss anything else!" I wonder what objections the two envoys have? ”

Changsun Ping glanced at Yu Wenzhi and didn't say anything, at this time, it is still necessary for Yu Wenzhi to make a decision, he himself is just Yu Wenzhi's attendant, and he is already very satisfied to be able to come as a deputy envoy.

Although Yuwen Zhi is very unreliable, and he doesn't know whether this person is the relationship between Yuwen Hu or Yuwen Yong, but at this time, he patted his chest and promised: "Okay, I'll let people bring these horses now, and they will be delivered together when Nan Chen arrives!" ”
