Chapter 1519: Let them say it themselves
Jiang Xingchen didn't want to start a war with many forces at the same time, first of all, it would mean that the construction plan would be completely paralyzed, and all the resources of the territory would be invested in the war. Due to the limitations of geography and population, he could not leave the Star Territory to fight, otherwise he would likely fall into a quagmire, and the opponent would have too much depth and population to maneuver.
Even if it is only the defense stage of the Star Leader, the consumption of Yuan Stone and Steel is difficult to measure, and the reserves of 20 million yuan stone look like a lot, once it really starts, it will be faster than burning it directly.
In addition, once the forces including the Qiankun Empire cut off the transportation channel, the steel resources of the Star Territory will immediately fall into crisis, and the only way is to transport by air, but in that case, how can they maintain air strikes against other forces.
And the most important point is the son of the An family, which is his main enemy. The other party is looking forward to fighting on the mainland, so that he will be completely locked in the star territory, and the other party will be able to calmly arrange and deal with several major bases one by one. And after Qingjiao recovers and cooperates with the mainland forces, it will be difficult for the star leader to turn over, and the high-end force will be restricted to death by the other party.
Therefore, fundamentally he had no idea of fighting this war, and the military exercises were more just deterrence, including long-range communications, which were also buried in advance, and were deliberately made unfathomable. In fact, this is a gamble, betting that the major forces will not be able to bear the huge losses of the bombing of the capital, and they will not dare to fight hard.
And this method is also a response to the son of the An family. On the surface, it seems to be a dispute between the Star Leader and many forces on the mainland, but what is really secretly fighting is his son of the An family overseas. The other party wanted to intensify the contradictions on the mainland, so Jiang Xingchen used strong means to suppress the contradictions. Judging from the results, the purpose of this military exercise has been achieved. The major forces are afraid, and no one is willing to give up their capital for the sake of steam engine technology. Anyway, there is still cannon technology not in intellectual property.
"Sir, Grandpa Fu sent a letter asking if it was time to ask countries to comply with intellectual property rights!" Han Xiaowu came to Jiang Xingchen's side. asked in a low voice.
"Needless to say, just act as if nothing had happened, everything is working as normal! Jiang Xingchen sneered and waved his hand. Since the other party is already afraid, let's go too far, and let the whole continent feel the toughness of the star leader.
"Yes!" Han Xiaowu answered, turned around and left. In fact, there was still some content in Grandpa Fu's letter, which was about the cost of military exercises, but he didn't say it. More than 130 million citrine coins were burned in more than two hours, and he looked at it painfully. Don't say it to make Jiang Xingchen depressed.
After Han Xiaowu left, Jiang Xingchen fell into contemplation again, and muttered with a sneer: "An family son, you should receive the news from the mainland soon."
It will take a few days for the news to reach overseas. But on the mainland, the effect of Xingchenling's military exercise has already been reflected. The most direct manifestation of this was people's discussions, which were experienced by tens of thousands of people at the time, so they spread in a very short period of time.
"Do you know that this military exercise led by Xingchen has scared the representatives sent by various countries stupidly!"
"Oh? What's going on! The most powerful thing in the Star Collar is the cannon, people have known it for a long time, how can they be stupid?"
"What we know is that it was before, but this time it is different. The artillery of this military exercise can hit more than 40 miles away!"
"I'm more than forty miles. Really?" Listening to the exclamation of the lively people, his mind quickly calculated how far away he was forty miles.
"This can be fake, I was in the star collar at the time. I went with the owner. You know, our proprietors are"
"Hurry up and get down to business. We know that your owner has a boutique shop in Xingchenling, and you've said this hundreds of times!"
"We were all on a small hill at the time. Suddenly, a very harsh sound sounded above the head, how to describe it, it was like pumping hard with a wicker, but the sound was many times louder, and then it exploded ten miles away. At that time, there were so many shells, so I didn't mention it, and in just twenty minutes, the building area of seventeen or eighteen square miles was razed to the ground. ”
"Blowing up a base in twenty minutes! Oh my God, how many shells are needed!" People exclaimed again.
"More than 10,000 pieces, and it blew up a dozen square miles of buildings?" It's like when I was in Xiaoshanbao, and it's unbelievable to anyone.
"And the star leader can also command remotely, Mo Hongxian is the battle commanded in front of everyone, the cannon at that time was thirty miles away from the hill, it was simply amazing, and then there were 10,000 orc cavalry, each with a crossbow in his hand, and the person with the telescope said, seeing the black crossbow arrows everywhere, that momentum"
The narrator spoke with relish, and the listener was attentive, but when he spoke of the eight hundred dragonflies, the people exclaimed again.
At first, the news was transmitted among the nobles, but in just half a day, it spread all over the major cities, villages and towns, and the common people knew about it. At this time, the debate about intellectual property rights was completely suppressed, and there was talk of this military exercise everywhere, and those who mentioned the abolition of intellectual property rights disappeared.
Inventors were all elated, as if they had won the battle, and were full of praise for the benefits of intellectual property.
There are still many people who are judging whether Jiang Xingchen will really start a war during the military exercise, after all, he has not shown up at the military exercise
It seems that after this military exercise, Jiang Xingchen will propose to make countries comply with intellectual property laws. But a few days passed, Jiang Xingchen didn't mention it at all, and all countries remained silent, as if they had forgotten.
As a result, the wind of discussion changed again, and there was speculation as to why neither side spoke.
"There's not going to be some kind of agreement between them, is it?"
"I don't think it's very likely, this matter is known to the world, how can it end so hastily!"
"But now Jiang Xingchen has not responded at all, isn't this just a default to the practice of many forces?"
Just when people were studying and analyzing, a piece of news came out from the imperial capital, and the emperor was the first to come forward, saying that the intellectual property law was proposed and formulated by the Xingchen Leader and the empire together, and of course it must be abided by. Later the empire's steam engine technology was used only for scientific research work.
In the name of beauty, this is to abide by the property rights law, but in the eyes of high-level nobles and big families, the emperor has compromised. This statement is tantamount to bowing your head and admitting defeat.
But the Emperor didn't think so, and the news brought by the letter in his hand made him breathe a long sigh of relief and smiled faintly.
The letter came from Xingchen Ling, and it was clearly written that Xingchen Ling agreed to sell the property rights, which could be used for any production except that they could not be bought and sold directly, and the price was 100 million gold coins.
With the emperor taking the lead, other forces will not continue to carry it. The Emperor and Jiang Xingchen stood together, which meant that Jiang Xingchen could bombard them with impunity. Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect followed, followed by the Eight Kingdoms, all of which stated that they would abide by intellectual property rights and would not use the steam engine for any commercial purposes.
And when various countries issued statements one after another, people's spirits suddenly rose. Xingchen Ling is too cheating, a military exercise, without saying anything, scared all countries to bow their heads and admit their mistakes. It's not that the major powers don't urinate, it's that the star leader is too strong. It's still a promising future to work in the star collar
All kinds of remarks emerge one after another, all about how strong the star leader is. The emperors and high-level leaders of the major forces were aggrieved to death, and they scolded the emperor for being spineless. Proposing to comply with intellectual property rights is equivalent to bowing your head and admitting your mistakes, and the last bit of face is also peeled off.
But no matter how much he scolded in his heart, he could only swallow his teeth, pretending not to know the rumors of the outside world
Just when the Eight Kingdoms and Xuanyuan Tianzong were pretending to be deaf and dumb, the emperors of the Great Qin, Dali and Moon Shadow Kingdoms were so happy that their snot bubbles were about to come out.
In the main hall of the palace of the Great Qin Kingdom, the emperor had an excited smile on his face, and made a hehe sound from time to time. The higher-ups below looked sluggish, as if they had heard the most incredible thing.
"Your Majesty, there won't be a mistake, right? Xingchen Ling really wants to sell us cannons, and is also responsible for making cannonballs?" An old man with white hair asked.
"Of course, this is a letter from Princess Celestia herself. The first batch of Xingchen Leader will sell us 300 cannons!" The Emperor nodded vigorously to express his mood at the moment.
"Goo-dong!" The old man seemed to be unable to stand the stimulation and fell to the ground at once, causing chaos.
"Hurry up and let the old duke rest and call the imperial doctor!" Emperor Daqin was also taken aback, but after learning that the old man was fine, his mood returned to his previous excited state.
He understood the old duke's reason for this, for he was too. These three hundred cannons represented several times the increase in the strength of the Great Qin Kingdom. Although other forces have purchased cannon making technology, through military exercises, it is known that their cannons are not comparable to the cannons of the Star Leader at all.
Moreover, these three hundred cannons not only represent the increase in force, but also represent the closer relationship between Great Qin and the Star Lord, as well as deeper cooperation in the future.
Soon, the high-ranking nobles who digested the news burst into laughter, and the guards outside the palace could hear it
Like the Great Qin Kingdom, the Great Li Kingdom also received three hundred cannons. Emperor Dali was so excited that he rewarded everyone up and down the palace, which shows how excited he was. Don't look at Jiang Xingchen just selling cannons, but the significance of this is self-evident, and the relationship between the two sides is closer. This is just the beginning, and there will definitely be more lucrative returns if the development continues, even if the technology is open.
And in the Kingdom of Moon Shadow, the Moon Shadow Emperor also received a promise of three hundred cannons. A heart hanging high was put down. After refusing to buy technology, he was always worried that Jiang Xingchen would ignore him, and asked the third prince several times if Jiang Xingchen would not compensate.
Now he is finally relieved, don't look at Jiang Xingchen for not giving technology. But everyone knows that the cannons of the Star Collar are much stronger than those made by other countries. (To be continued.) )
