Chapter 110: Talking about money doesn't hurt feelings
Li Chunfeng didn't show Li Er the poems written to him by Luoyang, because he was still not sure whether what Li Yong said was true or false, because the knowledge of the Imperial Library washed away his cognition again and again, and he wanted to confirm it and report to Li Er, and Li Er naturally didn't know that Li Chunfeng dared to hide it, Li Chunfeng still wanted to go to the library early as usual, and then study here, and if he didn't understand, he recorded it, and when the time came, he asked Li Yong to explain to him one by one, as for why he would believe that Li Yong would know, Because he was convinced in his heart that Li Yong was a child of an immortal or an immortal, otherwise how could he know so many things. Everything that happened in Chang'an has nothing to do with the mercenaries in other countries, they only occasionally go on the field to practice some enemies, and then they live a fairy-like life in the camp, although the people of the Longwei camp are strong, but for those black troops equipped with firearms, it is really a small thing, even if a hundred black troops, sneak attack a military camp of tens of thousands, it is also a heavy death and injury to the other party, and they retreat without a single casualty, and those opponents are scared, and they have to open one eye when sleeping, Otherwise, I don't know when, a smoking thing exploded around me, those enemy generals hated these old six very much, Ming didn't come, he liked to engage in sneak attacks, and every time he succeeded, especially in the battlefield of Tuyuhun, the hundred black army was haunted, as long as they touched the military camp of the Tubo people, at night it was the first grenade to bomb violently, and then every thirty people shot fiercely at the chaotic military camp in one direction, and the other ten specially threw grenades, and the Tubo people were constantly attacked and harassed by a hundred black troops, And the three hundred Longwei battalion with Tuyuhun's army also kept looking for their weakest place to attack, which made the original Tubo army stop suddenly, and the two sides continued to tear back and forth on the stopped front, but there was no actual progress, Fu Yun was originally ready for the destruction of his family and country, but now he was miraculously saved by the mercenaries who spent a lot of money to invite him, he suddenly felt that this deal was a good deal, but it was about to be the contract time, and these mercenaries immediately withdrew according to the contract, so Fu Yun was very nervous, Hurry up and let find the messenger of heaven - the messenger of peace, and the messenger of peace in charge of Tuyuhun naturally knows about the contract of the mercenaries, but he is not in a hurry, knowing that after Fu Yun has tasted the sweetness, he will definitely take the initiative to find himself, sure enough, the messenger of Fu Yun found him in the inn in Wuzhou City, and after expressing Fu Yun's meaning, the messenger of peace did not say anything, and got into the luxury carriage they arranged and set off for Fu Yun's tooth tent, along the way, those people of Fu Yun waited for the peace messenger like a licking dog in later generations, After Fu Yun waited anxiously for almost ten days, he finally gave the peace messenger a look, he saw the familiar face, and was so excited that he knelt at the feet of the peace messenger and kissed his shoes, and the peace messenger saluted Fu Yun slightly with a peaceful smile, Fu Yun dared to accept the salute, and quickly avoided it, but he respectfully saluted the peace messenger.
"I've seen the Ambassador."
"The lord of the country is polite, I'm just a businessman, I don't know why you came to me this time?"
The peacemaker deliberately pretended not to know what to do and asked, but Fu Yun didn't dare to blame the person in front of him, he respectfully made a gesture of invitation and said.
"Envoy, please go to the tent and tell me in detail, I have prepared the best wine and beautiful women for you."
The peace messenger didn't say anything, and walked into the tooth tent with a smile that he didn't know how many times he had come, the meal that had already been prepared was already on the table, and there were several beautiful Tuguhun beauties standing in his place, this face was too familiar to him, Li Yong and Zheng Liwan would not ask about what they did as peace messengers in various countries, because as long as they had the result, even if they married those foreign women, they would not object, but there was a request, that is, once they had their species, they must be taken back to Xishan, No descendants are allowed to stay outside, as for them to marry as concubines or wives, that is their freedom, but for these die-hard Li Yong and Xishan's peace messengers, they have always been acting on the spot, so there were no deaths, of course, there were accidents, so they naturally got them back to Xishan, as for wanting to be a wife, it is impossible, this is the bottom line of Xishan people, you can marry a foreign woman, but you can't be a wife, you can only be a concubine, for this, Li Yong is also very helpless, he can't force to change the mind of Xishan people, I can only blame myself for brainwashing them with the concept of Han supremacy in the past, which led them to engrave this concept into their bones. After Tuyuhun's peace messenger and Fu Yun pushed the cup and changed the lamp for a long time, Fu Yun saw that he was almost done eating and drinking, so he asked everyone in the tooth tent to temporarily retreat, because he wanted to talk to the peace messenger about the mercenary contract renewal, he didn't want others to know too many details about this, and the peace messenger also saw what Fu Yun meant, and also put down the wine glass and waited for Fu Yun to speak.
"Envoy, in fact, I invite you to come over this time, mainly about the divine soldiers."
"Oh? Aren't they easy to use? Dissatisfied? ”
The peacemaker asked, pretending to be dumbfounded
"No, no, no, the divine soldiers are very powerful, and my country will not be destroyed by those tubo dogs for the time being, I am very grateful to you and the divine soldiers for my country."
"What does the lord mean, please tell me directly."
"Actually, I want to leave the divine soldiers to continue to help me resist the Tubo people, I don't know what the envoy means?"
Fu Yun asked cautiously, for fear that the peacemaker would not agree, he knew that if there were no mercenaries, his country would definitely be finished, and he must strive to keep these fierce mercenaries behind, no matter what the price was, and the peacemaker naturally knew that Fu Yun's careful thoughts, just pretending to be stupid and waiting for the price to sell.
"Our contract clearly states that the lord of the country naturally has the priority to renew the contract, but now there is a small problem, that is, the people on the Tibetan side don't know how to find my subordinates, and they say that they are willing to pay twice the price of your mercenary to hire my family, you know, I am just a businessman, I am very embarrassed."
Hearing that the Tubo people also came to the door, this scared Fu Yun to death, he knew that if it wasn't for these mercenaries to help him, he would have been the king of the dead country, if those mercenaries came to the Tubo people, he could not fight, just run away with people, such a thing must not be allowed to happen, as for Tubo to invite mercenaries is indeed true, because Lu Dongzan has long found that these small groups of mercenaries in Tuyuhun are not only brave in battle, but also use tactics like those in the Central Plains in the art of war. Every time he can hit his seven inches, but there is no evidence that it is the people of the Tang Dynasty, because they have not captured the captives of the mercenaries, and these equipment are not the standard weapons and equipment of the Tang Dynasty, this is because Li Yong in order to avoid accidents, causing the Tubo people to have an excuse to attack the Tang Dynasty, so in the weapons and equipment, they are all using the Roman two-meter-long spear with the Ming Dynasty's Yanling knife, and the armor is the Song Dynasty's step armor. As for the weapons and equipment of the Longwei battalion, they were only temporarily distributed to them by Li Yong, and they had to return them before they went back, and they couldn't bring them back to Datang. Fu Yun hurriedly ran to the messenger of peace, knelt down on one knee and said pitifully.
"Envoy, don't promise those wolf-hearted Tubo people, isn't the friendship between us as good as those Tubo pups? I'm willing to pay double, no, I'm willing to renew my contract for twice the price. ”
The peace messenger pretended to be very embarrassed, but his heart was already happy, it was impossible for him to agree to the request of the Tubo people, because his hometown had clearly told them that they were not allowed to provide any help to the Tibetans, and the peace messengers of the Tubo only continued to do commercial business with those big nobles and big landowners in the city, and as for the military business, it was only a small scale to provide some cheap Tang-style obsolete weapons and equipment.
"Well, for the sake of your old employer, I'll suffer a little loss this time."
After the peace messenger finished speaking, the nervous Fu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and he quickly got up and picked up his wine glass to toast the peace messenger and said.
"Thank you, Envoy, this beautiful night, talking about money hurts a lot."
And the peacemaker picked up his wine glass and touched it lightly with Fu Yun and said.
"Talking about money doesn't hurt feelings, it only makes me happy, what do you say? Your Excellency. ”
"Yes, yes, for the sake of our friendship."
"Then thank you for the help of the lord of the country, drink victory."
In this way, Tuyuhun paid twice the price to sign the contract for the next batch of mercenaries, of course, the number was still the same, because Fu Yun didn't have so much money to hire more mercenaries now. After the matter was over, Fu Yun called back the beauties who were waiting outside, and continued to drink and have fun with the peace messenger, at this moment his mood was like putting down a big mountain, and it was even more hilarious to play, and the peace messenger looked at Fu Yun who was hugging left and right with disdain, and couldn't help but say "stupid beep" in his heart, and then continued to play with those beauties who accompanied him, in these peace messengers or in Li Yong's eyes, these people are fat sheep to be slaughtered, and now they are constantly picking their wool, when the time is ripe, is to slaughter them directly, talk about business with them without talking about money, is it funny to talk to them about feelings, and what happens in Tuyuhun is also constantly happening in other countries, because the countries that have tasted the sweetness can no longer stop, and they have paid a greater price to renew the contract, and those who are ready to return to China Longwei Battalion and the Black Army have begun to do a good job of handover, but the Longwei Battalion and the Black Army are different, the Black Army can do a seamless handover, because they have a large number of people, and there are fewer people who go, so they can be rotated immediately, And the Longwei battalion needs to return to China for a month to rest and re-divide the batch, but there is a one-month blank period for the black army to replace the Longwei battalion, which is also the best way Li Yong can think of, as for the questions of those countries about this, the peace envoys just said lightly, "If you want to wait, if you want to renew the contract." "If you want to renew the contract, or pull it, anyway, their opponents also want it, what is the Overlord Treaty, this is the Overlord Treaty, but they still have a very good work ethic, and the contract also stipulates that the mercenaries will be counted from the arrival of the assembly point, which also makes those employers feel better.
