Chapter 274: Lamb to the Slaughter
Lu Qian smiled faintly and didn't give Hua Rou much of a response.
Seeing this, the empress said to Lu Qian, "Lu Xiang, everyone has almost introduced it. Now, you can tell us what to do next."
Lu Qian glanced at the empress and didn't see it.
After all, when Lu Qian hugged the empress last night, he boasted about Haikou.
He will definitely help her, dominate the Western Regions, and help him run the Western Regions well.
The cow that was blown up last night in order to eat tofu and take advantage of it is about to come true now.
However, he already had a systematic idea.
It's just a matter of saying it earlier.
After all, when he returns to Great Xia in the future, he still needs the support of the Western Regions.
Lu Qian was not hypocritical, and looked directly at Huang Baba from the War Department.
"Let's start with the military department, General Huang..."
As soon as Lu Qian spoke, Huang Baba came to a fierce girl and was shy, and she wanted to be coquettish, but because of her too much strength.
Cheng slapped the table and said, "Lu Xiang... Hello to the outside, call someone Baba..."
Lu Qian was startled by Huang Baba, and got goosebumps.
Coughed awkwardly.
looked at Huang Baba's mountain-like figure and said, "General Baba, you tell me first, how many troops we have in Shanshanguo, and the deployment situation."
Huang Baba saw that Lu Qian had changed his words, so he no longer corrected it, but began to answer Lu Qian's question.
Shanshan has a total of 120,000 soldiers, of course, 100,000 of which are adapted from the Huo family's army.
The 20,000 soldiers and horses of Shanshan are all female soldiers, of course, according to Huang Baba, the combat effectiveness of these female soldiers is no less than that of men.
The 20,000 soldiers and horses were stationed not far from Shanshan City.
He said that if there was a war, their men would be willing to charge on the front line.
looked at Huang Baba's face full of excitement, like a war madman.
"General Huang, you misunderstood... I'm not thinking about starting a war for the time being. After all, once a full-scale war is launched, it is the people of the Western Regions who will suffer!" Lu Qian said with a faint smile on his face.
"Didn't you say you wanted to unify the Western Regions? How can you unify without war?" Huang Baba saw that Lu Qian couldn't change his name for her, and he didn't bother to correct it, but asked with some curiosity.
Lu Qian smiled faintly, and then said, "Go to the army to attack and plan, then attack the enemy, then attack the army, and attack the city below."
After listening to Lu Qian's words, the empress nodded.
Lu Qian told her this concept last night.
He agrees.
Seeing that the crowd didn't seem to understand the meaning of Lu Qian's words.
The empress explained succinctly and said, "Roughly speaking, when the two countries negotiate, sending troops to attack is the worst way."
Huang Baba was a little lost after listening to the empress's words, and looked at her appearance.
Lu Qian smiled and said, "General Huang, I just said that there will be no large-scale battles. If there are some people who have no eyes, they are not willing to surrender. Naturally, I will also wage a special war and win as fast as I can! I'm going to find someone to form a special forces force with you, and you, General Huang, will be in charge!"
"Special forces? Special Warfare?" Obviously, Huang Baba didn't seem to understand.
Lu Qian explained it simply and clearly, and Huang Baba was very interested in listening to it.
Especially listen to Lu Qian.
can allow that special forces to use the same equipment as the shadow guards.
She had heard about what was happening in the temple.
After listening to this, his eyes were full of stars, and he couldn't wait to let him take him to choose someone now.
Lu Qian smiled and said, "General Huang, I'll have someone help you later."
Huang Baba smiled and nodded.
Lu Qian turned his head to look at Guan Caicai again, and asked him to introduce Shanshanguo's income.
Guan Caicai couldn't help but raise his head and said, "Our Shanshan country is the richest among the thirty-six countries
Country. The total amount of taxes paid every year is more than eight million taels of gold!"
"If we reduce taxes for three years, will we still have any income?" Lu Qian asked lightly.
Guan Caicai was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lu Qian and said, "Lu Xiang, are you joking with me? If the tax is reduced... How can we still have income. We now rely on the merchants we come and go, and the tax revenues... If you don't collect taxes, you will have zero income."
The empress said to Guan Caicai, "Caicai, Lu Xiang means... For the next three years, we will waive all taxes."
Guan Caicai's eyes widened and looked at Lu Qian, "Lu Xiang, you're not joking, are you?"
Lu Qian raised his eyebrows, and then said, "Of course not! If a country is supported only by taxes, it is obviously problematic! Let's set up our own chamber of commerce and build our own brand... Own an industry that belongs to the state. not only on the people."
Lu Qian said that he gave a plan and asked Guan Caicai to do it.
After Guan Caicai took it, he looked at it.
As for the other two departments, Lu Qian had nothing else to say.
After all, it is because you can also account for forty percent of the shares.
In the future, he can get a commission on the business of the entire region of the Western Regions.
It's a good deal.
As for Huang Baba's side, a special combat team has been formed, and it will be convenient to use them in the future.
As for the Department of Punishment and the Department of Intelligence, these two departments are the empress's cronies at first glance, so he still shouldn't interfere.
After the simple court meeting, Lu Qian asked Nie Bing and Huang Baba to be in charge of selecting candidates.
Lu Qian talked to Guan Caicai about some details, first of all, the confidant's corset can be opened.
...
At this time, the car is late in the country.
In the palace, Che Chi, Da Yue, Jing Jue, and the emperors of the three major countries of the Western Regions all gathered together.
They had received a letter of persuasion from the female emperor Si Bing.
Moreover, Che Zheng and his princes have just arrived.
The three emperors saw the three princes coming, and hurriedly greeted them, asking with a concerned face.
After listening to Che Zheng's words, their faces were not good-looking.
"Father... Those are not people at all... They can raise their hands to summon the thunder... Thanks to our fast running, a wooden stick in our hand can make a thunderous sound and kill people in the blink of an eye..." Che Zheng and several princes said the hundred shadow guards like Shura.
If you don't see them, you should speak in unison.
Several emperors didn't believe it.
"So what do you mean... Shall we go and surrender? Bow down?" The emperor of Che Chi said with an unkind face.
The emperor of the Great Moon Kingdom said, "They have made announcements one after another, saying that after the unification of the Western Regions in the future, Si Bing said that they can be exempted from taxes for three years... Therefore, the people want to be unified!"
The Emperor of the Peerless Kingdom said with a gloomy face, "Hmph, don't you see? Si Bing wanted to unify the Western Regions and collude with foreign enemies. The reason why he has confidence is nothing more than because of those Huo family soldiers who came over from Great Xia! At that time, we will all surrender, and we will be lambs to the slaughter without the right to arm! I am firmly against it!"
The best emperor
