Chapter 893: Drinking to Quench Your Thirst
The genre of literature is going to pick a son and quit!
A person who holds the official positions of Wu and Wei is still in a high position, and now there is a conflict between the two countries, and the literature that is sandwiched between them is indeed not a person inside and out.
Because of this, Wen Chong simply unloaded Wei Xiang's errand and came to negotiate with the monarchs and ministers of Wei as the left prime minister of Wu State!
Anyway, from the bottom of his heart, Wen Chong has always regarded himself as a courtier of Qingji and a courtier of Wu State.
"Never!"
Seeing that Wei Junxuan, who was about to step down, he was busy struggling to get up, and shouted: "Xiangbang, why did you leave the widow?" Leaving the Wei Kingdom? ”
"Wei Ju, why don't you apologize to Xiangbang soon?"
"Grandfather."
"Apologies!"
After being scolded by Wei Jun, Wei Ju frowned, reluctantly bowed to the opposite Duwen, lowered his head and said: "Shicai is rude, impulsive, you shouldn't speak ill of Xiangbang, please forgive Xiangbang, don't take it to heart." ”
"It doesn't matter."
Seeing that Wei Junxuan and Wei Ju, the ancestors and grandsons, had already been pinched by themselves, Wen Chong put away the seal and put the Jinxian crown back on his head.
This Wei Xiang's errand is something that Wen Chong doesn't want to do.
However, Qingji did not instruct him to step down, how dare he be good at literature?
It is true that during his tenure as Minister of Wei, Wen Chong was dedicated to the benefit of Wu and did many things that were not conducive to Wei.
For example, the map and household registers of some cities, as well as the status of the garrison personnel of the fortress, were transmitted back to Xianyang in the literature, so that the monarchs and ministers of Wu State could learn about it......
Rao is like this, how dare Wei Junxuan be unfavorable to the genre at this time?
If there is no intermediary of the literary genre, I am afraid that the Wei State will lose even more.
It's also inconvenient to talk in front of Wu Wang Qingji!
"Xiangbang, can we discuss the conditions for my Wei State to cede twenty-one cities in Hedong and compensate Wu State for 30,000 Yi gold?"
Wei Junxuan asked with an old face.
You must know that the previous Wei State had already been seized by the Wu State to the west of the river, and if the twenty-one cities in the east of the river were lost, the land area of the Wei State would be greatly reduced.
Even the Song, Lu, and Wei kingdoms in the east are inferior!
Moreover, the land east of the river is the anointed land of the Wei State, the place where the essence is located.
As early as the time of the old overlord Jin State, the land east of the river was the land of heavy capital of the Jin State, which was very prosperous, not only the land was fertile, the population was large, and the business was not generally prosperous.
If this is taken away by the Wu State, the Wei State is afraid that it will become the last among the princes in the world......
The compensation of 30,000 eridium gold is needless to say.
One eridium is equal to twenty-four taels, and thirty thousand eridium is seven hundred and twenty-two thousand taels!
Wei is the richest country among the three Jin Dynasty, but the annual treasury income is equivalent to corn, cloth, jade silk and other things, which is only 3,000 eridium.
In other words, the princes, officials, and soldiers of the Wei State had to go without eating or drinking for ten years before they could pay off this compensation......
How does this work?
Moreover, after Wei ceded 21 cities in Hedong, it was bound to reduce more than half of the tax sources, and all Wei people could only "work" for Wu for free.
Wu State's losses in the war, were they so big?
There must be none.
Even if there is, it shouldn't be left to Wei alone!
And what Qingji wants is this effect.
In fact, the compensation that Qingji demanded from Wei was only something worth 20,000 eridium gold (hard currency), which completely crippled Wei and made Wei unable to recover.
Qingji's bottom line is like this, and the reason why Wen Chong opened his mouth and asked Wei Junxuan for compensation of 30,000 yuan of gold was just to ask for a price and ask for money on the ground.
As the victor with an absolute advantage, is Wu still afraid that he will not be able to control Wei?
"Monarch, Wei ceded twenty-one cities in Hedong, and there is absolutely no room for further discussion."
Wen Chong said in a skeptical tone: "As for the compensation, we can talk about it again. ”
"No."
After Wei Junxuan coughed violently, he covered his heart again, with a colic look on his face, and said: "Wei State ceded twenty-one cities in Hedong, which is too much. ”
"My Wei State can cede up to eight cities, equivalent to five thousand eridium gold."
Hearing this, Wen Chong stood up and saluted to Wei Jun on the sickbed, and said, "Monarch, then there is no need to talk about it." ”
"It's no secret that the king would prefer to see this kind of outcome."
"Hundreds of thousands of troops of Wu State, Chen on the border between Han and Wei, Yin and Luo, just wait for the negotiation to break down, the king will immediately wave his army east to the north and destroy Han Wei!"
"At that time, Wei said that it was dead, and it would also die. The temple community has overturned, and the life of the family is not guaranteed, the monarch still has the gold and jade silk things, what is the use of the city and the land? ”
"Wu Guo, not by tongue, only by Wu Ge!"
“……”
Wei Junxuan was silent.
The foundation of Wei State can't be preserved, so what's the use of his current insistence?
Is it just for a breath?
"Language! How dare you be alarmist here? ”
Wei Ju pointed at Wen Chong angrily and said loudly: "Wu Guo is strong, is it possible that my Wei State is easy to bully?" ”
"In the battle of Yin Que, although the elite of our Wei country was lost, there are still soldiers who can fight in the country, and there are still young and strong women, healthy women, and even ordinary old and weak women and children, who are willing to fight for the country!"
"I, the Wei country, up and down, are united as one, and are dedicated to fighting against the invasion of violent Wu!"
"It can be said that an inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of blood, nearly two million Wei people, can the Wu army be wiped out?"
Wei Ju's words can only be self-deception and self-deception.
The population of Wei is almost two million, and if it is temporarily recruited, it may be able to pull up a team of three or four hundred thousand people.
However, it is of little use.
can only be a mantis arm as a car, looking for a dead end.
Moreover, it was simply impossible for Wu Jun to give Wei time for such a reaction.
Wen Chong thought for a while, and said surging words: "Taisun, I don't want to take advantage of your words. ”
"In the past few years, no, it is the Wei State since its founding, in foreign wars, in addition to uniting Han and Zhao to destroy Zheng's achievements, and Wu several battles, all of them were defeated, and even lost the land west of the river, even the national capital Anyi was broken, and the monarch and the emperor fled in a hurry."
"The loss of the army is so great that the loss of the city and the land is not painful?"
After a pause, Wen Chong said again: "The loss of the teacher and the loss of land is just a heartache. Even the Zongmiao Sheji can't be saved, how can the monarch and the grandson still have the face to see the ancestors of the Wei family under Jiuquan in the future? ”
"Hmph."
Wei Ju snorted coldly and said, "Wen Chong, I heard you be unskilled!" ”
"After losing the land east of the river, after the tax of Wei is halved, it will also compensate Wu for 30,000 eridium gold, which is tantamount to drinking water to quench thirst."
"In the future, wouldn't it be easy for Wu to destroy Wei?"
Wei Ju is not a fool, how can he not understand this kind of simple truth?
