"That's nature."

"I, a Ming soldier, must wear the best armor and fight the hardest battle."

Xiao Han said.

and Lin Cheng.

"Aiqing, during this time, Zhu Ming's merchants continued to go north, originally they were only competing with us for military scope, but now, they have gradually gained a firm foothold in Wuliangha, Liaodong."

"If this continues, I'm afraid that Dayuan won't have a chance to return to Uliangha."

Emperor Xuanguang looked at Wang Baobao with worried eyes.

"Your Majesty, the minister also knows about this matter, what's the matter, that Zhu Ming's strength is indeed not weak."

"And their goods are really worth the money, even if we want to fight, we can't fight it."

Wang Baobao sighed lightly.

"Is it possible to give Wuliangha to Zhu Ming like this?"

Emperor Xuanguang was not angry.

"Your Majesty, don't be impatient."

"In this battle, we probably can't compete with Zhu Ming, but it doesn't mean that we can't let Zhu Ming fall into the quagmire of Wuliangha."

Wang Baobao arched his hand at Emperor Xuanguang.

"Huh?"

"What do you mean by that?"

Emperor Xuanguang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked towards Wang Baobao.

"The area around Uliangha is full of many nomadic tribes, fishing and hunting tribes."

"Since ancient times, the degree of belligerence has been greater than nomadism and farming."

"As long as we find a way to get in touch with them and let them destroy the market that Zhu Ming has built, Zhu Ming will definitely be exhausted in this matter."

"After all, the land of Wuliangha is thousands of miles wide, if you really want to rely on strength to govern directly, you will definitely not be able to suppress it without hundreds of thousands of people."

"But Zhu Ming's national strength is not blowing in the wind, and they simply don't have the ability to deploy hundreds of thousands of troops here to maintain order."

"As long as we succeed in provoking the contradictions between those tribes and Zhu Ming, then my Dayuan will not lose no matter what."

Wang Baobao said.

"What Aiqing said is wonderful!"

"Rely on those barbarians to consume Zhu Ming, as long as those barbarians are messed up, even if he Zhu Ming has great ability, he will have to make a mess."

"Those barbarians are not afraid of them Zhu Ming, it's really a good move."

Emperor Xuanguang couldn't help but praise.

"Your Majesty is overrated."

"Wei Chen is just blessed to the soul of a little trick, if you can gain something, it is Your Majesty to guide Da Yuan in a good way, so that my Da Yuan can seize the opportunity at a critical moment."

Wang Baobao said to Emperor Xuanguang.

"Huh!"

"Aiqing, you are humble."

"Your exploits, I remember, if my Great Yuan can go south to recover the Central Plains, your King of Qi will not be just a title."

"Thousands of miles of land, all of them can be private property at that time."

Emperor Xuanguang assured Wang Baobao.

"Your Majesty laughed."

"Weichen is serious, I only want to recover the rivers and mountains for my great yuan, and I don't want anything else."

Wang Baobao was shocked and bowed down.

Fief of the Principality of Ava, Wanshi Villa.

"Brother Wan, great joy, great joy."

"This time, I'm afraid you're going to guess wrong."

Zhou Dexing walked into Zhou Dexing's study with a happy face and said to Zhou Dexing.

"Oh?"

"Why did Brother Zhou say this?"

Wan Shanhou looked at Zhou Dexing with some surprise.

"Brother Wan, just yesterday, I received a secret letter from Bin Yeyu, the emperor of the Bago Dynasty."

"The letter says that Pinyeyu is aware of our plight and has separated from the Ava dynasty, so he is willing to accept us."

"The ambassador sent by Bago to discuss matters will be here today, and this time, things are not as difficult as we thought."

Zhou Dexing was overjoyed.

He is a calm person, which is rarely the case, but today's situation does make Zhou Dexing happy.

As long as this matter is negotiated, their side can not only be preserved, but also can develop reasonably and legally in the Bago Dynasty, and their strength will be greatly increased.

"How?"

"Let's make arrangements, and you'll meet the messenger in person tonight?"

Zhou Dexing said to Wanshan.

"Okay."

"I'll see him tonight."

Wan Shanhou nodded slightly.

"Okay, then I'll go and prepare our honor guard for you."

"Although we are businessmen, after all, we are also from Daming, and we have really owned our own territory, this etiquette must not be bad, let's follow the standards of Daming?"

"Or, it's okay to use the same set of Dayuan back then."

Zhou Dexing rubbed his hands and said.

"It's Ming."

"Da Yuan's set makes me look uncomfortable."

Wan Shanhou said casually.

Zhou Dexing went down to arrange, and the time had passed in a blink of an eye.

It's night.

A group of troops from the Bago Dynasty rushed to Wanshi Villa.

"The envoy of the Bago Dynasty, Hanlos has met Mr. Zhou."

The first middle-aged man saluted to Wanshanhou.

"Mr. Special Envoy has worked hard all the way."

"Zhou doesn't deserve such a big gift from you."

"The Duke is already waiting for you in the villa, and you will come with Zhou, I believe that there will be a pleasant cooperation between us."

Zhou Dexing helped Han Luosi up.

"Thank you Mr. Zhou."

Han Luos said to Zhou Dexing.

Stomp, stomp!

Everyone walked up the stairs, and on both sides of the gate of the villa, a kind of caravan high-level separated, signaling to Hanlos.

Boom Boom!

The flames soared into the sky, and nine salutes rang out five times in unison.

The exaggeration of the ninety-five supreme arrangement of forty-five salutes is a ceremonial guard that can only be used by the ninety-five supreme, but the Ming Dynasty has never really used it.

On the one hand, they are poor, and on the other hand, there are no foreign guests who are worthy of being discharged from this scene.

And nominally, Wan Shanhou is still a courtier of the Ava Dynasty, so naturally he can't put it like this.

Therefore, Wan Shanhou finally decided, nine gates, five rings, which can be regarded as expressing their intention to no longer surrender to Ava.

"The Bago messenger Hanlos has seen the Duke."

In the living room of the villa, Hanlos saluted to the queen of the mountains.

"Your Excellency the envoy is gracious."

"We are all peddlers and pawns, we don't deserve such a big gift, this time the envoy is here, I don't know what you are doing?"

Wan Shanhou asked directly at Han Luos.

"Lord Duke."

"This time, on behalf of the royal family of the Bago Dynasty, I am willing to join forces with the Duke to conspire to destroy the Ava rebels."

Hanlos spoke.

"Oh?"

"I wonder how your country intends to cooperate?"

Wan Shanhou's eyes narrowed slightly.

"It's simple."

"Your land is guarding the main route of my Bago attack on Ava, as long as the Duke can make a way for our Bagu army to pass, and help us maintain our logistics."

"When Ava is destroyed, my majesty can cede half of the territory as the territory of the principality."

"I wonder what the Duke thinks?"

Hanlos asked after looking at Wan Shanhou.

"Oh?"

"Which half?"

"The northern half?"

"The emperor of your country is really a good game, knowing that the Ming Dynasty will never tolerate us, is this for us to help you guard the north gate forever?"

The corners of Wan Shanhou's mouth hooked.

"Yes, yes."

"Da Ming is powerful, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not have the same mind as Da Yuan back then, and we have to guard against it."

"I don't know this, is the Duke willing to agree?"

Hanlos said to Wanshanhou.

"Sounds reasonable."

"However, I don't agree!"

"Go back and tell you Emperor Pinyeyu that Ava is kind to me, and I will never betray Ava."

In Zhou Dexing's shocked gaze, Wan Shanhou spoke lightly.

"Duke Wan!"

"You have to think clearly."

"Once you make this choice, we will definitely unplug you before we sweep away Ava."

"Are you really willing to become a consumable of the Ava dynasty?"

Hanlos felt a chill on his face.

"If you want to fight, just let the horses come."

"Wan Mou has nothing else, it's just a lot of money, and we can still raise this army."

"If your country wants to test how big the caliber of the cannon in the Central Plains is, you can give it a try!"

"Brother Zhou."

"Sending off!"

Wan Shanhou waved his hand, not giving Han Luosi a chance to refute and Zhou Dexing to persuade at all.

"Queen of Ten Thousand Mountains!"

"You'll regret it!"

Hanlos took the case.

However, Wan Shanhou had already turned away.

Wanshan Hou Study.

"Brother Wan, what are you doing here?"

"It's not like it's okay..."

Zhou Dexing looked at Wanshan with a grudge in his eyes.

"Helping them guard the north gate, that sounds reasonable, doesn't it?"

Wan Shanhou asked lightly.

Zhou Dexing's words were interrupted and he nodded slightly.

"Then you say, why don't they keep it themselves?"

"Since they think that their strength is stronger than ours, why do they think that we can stop it when they can't stop Da Ming themselves."

"Besides, with a treaty, you don't really think they're going to give us their backs, do you?"

Wan Shanhou said coldly.

"Then they..."

Zhou Dexing was puzzled.

"False paths."

"They never wanted to cooperate with us, let me get out of the way, just to make it easier for me to make trouble."

"Don't expect anything from them, get ready for a fight."

"I will write a few letters to the clans that are close to us to speak on the side of Ava."

"Let Ava support us, at least not stab us in the back."

Wan Shan said.

On the sea.

Sun and Moon Forever Number.

"General, it's not good, there is an ambush warship behind the reef next to it, and now it is coming at us!"

The lookout exclaimed in surprise.

"Lao Tzu saw it!"

Yu Tongyuan said with a dark face.

After several days of calm on the sea, Yu Tongyuan thought that he would not meet the enemy again, but he did not expect that he was caught off guard by an oversight.

"What kind of ships are the enemy, look at the number of them."

Wang Jing asked Yu Tongyuan.

"Seven warships of almost the same level as my Daming, ten of the same size, but slightly weaker in combat, and eleven small warships, it's not easy to deal with."

"Mr. Wang, according to the previous arrangement, I'll stop them first."

Yu Tongyuan frowned.

"Good!"

Wang Jing responded that professional things should be handed over to professional people to do.

If he stays on the Sun and Moon Forever, not only will he not be able to help, but there is a high probability that he will cause chaos.

Immediately, as last time, he went up to the other ships and began to direct the merchant ships to distance themselves from the Ming warships and make combat arrangements.
