Chapter 296: The Six Nations Gather

"Finally arrived in the country of Zhongshan!" Ma Jianliang wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his heart palpitated.

Since the first sailor of the country of Langya led by him was "singled out", he tried to go to the west to find out the news. But at this time, the country of Langya and the country of Canglan are still facing each other, and the border pass continues to be blocked. So Ma Jianliang can only go around in circles. first went north to the country of Shaoze, and then found the opportunity to steal into the country of Taihua, and finally found an opportunity to come to the country of Zhongshan.

Along the way, he encountered danger many times, and was almost identified several times.

Fortunately, it finally came to the range of the six Western countries. At this time, Ma Jianliang was dressed as a ranger, dressed in a simple but somewhat white green shirt, with a long sword hanging from his waist, which was quite unruly.

He followed the main road and marched with the scattered caravans, and unhurriedly headed in the direction of the country of Qixia.

"We will be able to reach the country of Qixia in a few days!" Ma Jianliang remembered the picture of the original naval battle in his mind: under the strange big ships and strange artillery attacks of the country of Qixia, the warships of the First Naval Division of the country of Langya were almost powerless to fight back, and they were smashed one after another.

This picture makes Ma Jianliang feel complicated every time he thinks about it: there are tremors and faint fears, there are unacceptable, envious, and more curious, I want to find out.

Driven by this mood, coupled with the emperor's order, Ma Jianliang finally set foot on the land of the west, ready to explore intelligence.

............

When Ma Jianliang arrived in the country of Zhongshan, the master of the Transformation Period of the Xiaoyao faction and the Taoist of Guanyun also returned to the country of Langya with the Taoist of Mingquan, met the emperor of the country of Langya, and asked about the naval battle.

Then the head of Guanyun came to the port of Surabaya to observe the ruins. Standing on the ruins of the Governor's Mansion, Guanyun Dao was speechless for a long time. Regarding the news of this sudden defeat, the head of the Guanyun Dao was also surprised and inexplicable.

He didn't know what to say for a while. It was the Loose Sect who asked the country of Langya to give the 'self-immeasurable' ship of the country of Qixia a little color - in fact, the head of the Guanyun Dao felt from the beginning that it was impossible to say whether the ship of the country of Qixia could cross the green sea of death.

I don't want the reality to be such a slap in the face, or the kind of snapping.

The head of Guanyun Dao stood for a long time, and finally sighed, and said to Yan Zhen, the governor of Surabaya Port next to him: "This loss, the free faction will bear it!"

Yan Zhen was overjoyed and immediately thanked him. The Carefree faction bears all the losses, and the emperor is not easy to blame himself and others - the reason why the Carefree faction bears all the losses is actually an invisible apology: this time it is our Carefree faction's problem.

After returning to the imperial capital, the Guanyun Daoist left a full 200 Infant Transformation Pills and 10 Erjin Pills for the Emperor of Langya Country, and then drifted away. The price of these elixirs was almost double the loss in this naval battle.

But Guanyun Dao was full of solemnity, and what was displayed in his mind was the power of artillery and the destructive power it caused. When he was in the Land of Qixia, the Daoist of Guanyun had already seen the destructive power caused by artillery.

But he didn't expect that the country of Qixia would be able to move the artillery to the ship, come to the country of Langya 16,000 miles away, and overthrow the first sailor division of the country of Langya in one go.

Especially according to the descriptions of the sailors on the side of the country of Langya, the steel battleship is a turtle shell, and it can't be moved at all. Everyone attacked for more than an hour and lost more than 20 yuan infancy, but they failed to break the defense.

Occasionally, one or two attacks broke through the defenses, but they could only leave shallow scratches on the hard iron ship, to no avail!

The Daoist of Guanyun returned to the Loose Sect, but his brows were furrowed. He vaguely felt a change, but he couldn't put it into words.

"The Land of Perched Clouds...... Xuanzhen Sect ...... What the hell are you doing?"

............

On the side of the country of Qixia, the court meeting ended, and Zhang Hao temporarily returned to Ninghe County. Nowadays, there are not many people at the national level who need Zhang Hao's direct efforts, and Zhang Hao only needs to mention it on the side.

And the most important thing for Zhang Hao now is to develop and expand the marine industry. One boat is not enough!

Now Zhang Hao is also the Minister of Marine Development, and the focus of marine development is the fiefdom of the Zhang family. This point made Liu Xinyu a little entangled. But there is no way, now if you want to develop the sea, you can only rely on the Zhang family and Dayang Group.

And Liu Xinyu has recently been thinking about whether to join the shares of Dayang Group - but it is only a plan, and he has not yet said it to anyone. Liu Xinyu must carefully control all the proportions and ensure the stability of the country before he can think about the interests of the empire and the interests of the royal family.

The interests of the empire and the interests of the royal family are different.

After a while, Liu Xinyu retracted his thoughts and began to meet with representatives of different countries.

More than 50 people gathered together, including representatives from the five countries of Zhoushan, Yanyun, Zhongshan, Jinyang, and Danyang. And this time, the leaders are all princes - they all attach great importance to it, and even shock.

However, the people who follow the prince are different.

Tang Jun, the crown prince of the country of Zhoushan, was accompanied by Prime Minister Wu Ruohui;

Yan Xiao, the crown prince of the country of Yanyun, is also accompanied by Prime Minister Duan Xuehai;

Zhong Linsong, the crown prince of the country of Zhongshan, was followed by Qin Shaoxuan, the young master of the crown prince;

Zhao Huaiyun, the crown prince of the country of Jinyang, was followed by Wei Zirong, the young master of the crown prince;

As for Song Qiming, the crown prince of the country of Danyang, he was followed by Prime Minister Wang Fei.

Everyone sat together, but at this time, there was a faint appearance of forming a united front, looking at Liu Xinyu with their eyes, vigilant and vigilant. And the light in the eyes of the princes is even more complicated. Faintly, there is a little bit of envy.

Everyone has been a prince for decades, but he is still a prince, but Liu Xinyu is less than nineteen years old, but he has already ascended the throne and become the first empress in the history of Western countries.

The most important thing is that before Liu Xinyu ascended the throne, he launched a cleanup of the big families and nobles, and the means were very tough. And after Liu Xinyu ascended the throne, he planned a new transformation of the country of Qixia.

Unprecedented, with industry and commerce as a national policy, and in one fell swoop opened the open sea that had blocked the western part of the Fertile Continent for thousands of years.

Everyone is envious and jealous, but at this time, they have to face Liu Xinyu together, I don't know what kind of price Qixia's country offers?

After waiting for the tea, Liu Xinyu took the lead in speaking: "Everyone, I'm glad you can come." Originally, I was going to wait a few days and take the initiative to contact you. ”

Everyone was stunned, Liu Xinyu was ready to take the initiative to inform everyone?

But at this time, everyone listened to Liu Xinyu take a bite of 'I', but they always felt an indescribable awkwardness

Liu Xinyu paused slightly, and his eyes swept over everyone with a smile: "I heard that when the country of Qixia was preparing to sail, some people said that they wanted to drive the country of Qixia into the sea. ”

Everyone turned their heads - everyone said something similar!

Liu Xinyu smiled softly, her voice was not as delicate as a woman, but a little domineering and mocking. "The country of Qixia has gone to the sea, but we have opened up the route with the outside world and brought back cheap pills.

All the pills in the country of Qixia are open to supply. The price of all pills has also been reduced to the lowest price, and everyone can buy them freely.

This is our pill price list, domestic and foreign unified quotation. You don't need to come to me alone, you just need to organize a caravan and come to us to buy directly.

In the procurement process, if the elixir and spiritual materials are traded, certain preferential treatment will be given, and they will enjoy the qualification of priority trading.

Rest assured, the price is the same for everyone. ”

The price list was sent, and after everyone took a look, they suddenly exclaimed. The price is really...... It's too cheap! In everyone's preparation, the country of Qixia should also peel off a layer of skin, I don't want it to be so cheap. At such a price, the country of Qixia only made a hard-earned money.

But everyone is not a child, after seeing such a price, the first question that comes to everyone's mind: why?

yes, why!

There's no pie in the sky, and if there is, it's bait!

With such a low price in the country of Qixia, there must be something to ask for. But everyone doesn't know what the country of Qixia asks for.

But there is one thing that everyone has not noticed - after seeing such a low price, the atmosphere of the faint alliance between everyone has faded.

Seeing such a price, everyone has this consciousness in their hearts: there is no need to form an alliance, and if the supply of pills is open, everyone will still be competitive.

The pills can't be infinite, and the number of pills that the country of Qixia brings back each time is definitely limited. So, who can grab more?

For a while, everyone was whispering again. The princes discussed with the wise men around them. But the thinkers were also confused, and they were all stunned by Liu Xinyu's sudden low price.

Liu Xinyu saw everyone's expressions in her eyes, her waist became more and more straight, her neck was slightly raised, and she scanned everyone with a downward posture. You are still struggling with the price, but you don't know that our country of Qixia has begun to plan for eternity.

This time, Liu Xinyu didn't open her mouth, just quietly watched everyone turn their heads and ears - just like watching a play.

After a while, Zhao Huaiyun, the crown prince of the Kingdom of Jinyang, finally spoke cautiously: "Thank you for Your Majesty's generosity, this price is indeed surprising, far exceeding our expectations." It's just that...... Just ......"

It's just' for a while, and Zhao Huaiyun didn't know how to speak. You can't just ask: what can you do?

Liu Xinyu finally spoke: "There is a reason why such a low price is given. ”

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Liu Xinyu's face, waiting for an explanation.

Liu Xinyu slowly got up and walked to the map on the wall, "This is a map of the known world, and we have added the nautical chart we just got on the basis of the enclosing image.

What do you see on this picture?"

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Liu Xinyu said directly, and his words were categorical: "I saw it...... Backwardness! The navigation line is connected to the civilized world. And beyond the nautical line...... It's a backward world!

We are in the West, the continent of fertile soil, and we are too far behind the whole world.

I don't want to open my eyes one day, and suddenly someone says, "Your Majesty, someone from a civilized world came out and said that he was here for archaeology!"

When everyone heard the last sentence, suddenly there was laughter.

"Isn't it funny!" Liu Xinyu suddenly turned around, her voice high-pitched.

Everyone was silent.

After another while, Yan Xiao, the crown prince of the country of Yanyun, spoke: "I agree with Your Majesty." But I wonder what Your Majesty's arrangements are?"

"It's very simple, unite the forces of our six Western countries and rush out together! For so many years, at least 8,000 years, although we in the West have been full of twists and turns, we have always joined hands to fight against the East.

Eight thousand years have brought us together.

Therefore, after the success of this voyage, the first thing I thought of was that we should unite and develop together.

The country of Qixia is willing to set an example for this, therefore, all the pills will be treated equally within the six countries!

I only hope that we, the six Western countries, can catch up with the backward time as soon as possible and not become the ...... in the eyes of others Barbarians!"

Liu Xinyu said and sat down slowly. The crowd continued to be stunned. Everyone thought of a lot of possibilities, but they didn't expect Liu Xinyu to suddenly give such an answer.

Are you ashamed? While you were still thinking about it, people were already thinking about the future of the entire six Western countries. This open-mindedness and this determination made everyone's eyes look at Liu Xinyu from the initial doubt, vigilance, contempt, etc., to respect and shock.

The first empress in the history of the Western countries is really extraordinary.

"I agree!" Yan Xiao, the crown prince of the country of Yanyun, spoke, he stood up and bowed deeply to Liu Xinyu: "Your Majesty, on behalf of the country of Yanyun, I thank Your Majesty, and I am willing to work with your country to jointly promote the development of the six western countries!"

With Yan Xiao's speech, everyone reacted one after another, and they all began to express their stance - just to make a statement, and it didn't cost money. But in the end, everyone focused on the crown prince and Song Qiming of the country of Danyang.

Song Qiming clenched his hands into fists, the green tendons on his arms burst out, his face was pale, and there were faint green tendons on his neck. And Wang Fei, the prime minister of the country of Danyang, has a very ugly complexion.

The Land of Danyang...... He is the only traitor among all nations!

No matter what happened in the past, the betrayal of the country of Danyang is an indisputable fact!

At this time, Yan Xiao spoke again. He sighed leisurely: "The performance of the country of Qixia is amazing. A few months ago, when he was on the verge of extinction, he also sent an envoy to the country of chaos, but it was done in a cooperative manner. From beginning to end, the country of Qixia has not harmed the interests of the six Western countries.

It has only been a few months now, and the western navigation line has been opened, and the 'life' route has been opened from the 'death' green sea. It's a miracle.

Now I am more willing to share this miracle with other countries, which is admirable.

But a certain country ...... Hey......"

The crown prince of the country of Danyang and the representatives of the country all bowed their heads, wishing that there was a hole in the ground to get into it. But it was clear that they were not going to do so.

With Yan Xiao taking the lead, everyone expressed their "concern" - the country of Danyang is not doing very well, you have to correct it.

Finally, Liu Xinyu spoke again. Her tone was soft, but her attitude was tough. "His Royal Highness Song Qiming, for your country...... I have an offer.

I would like to invite the other four nations to support you, to help you quell the rebellion in your country, and to help you get rid of the control of the Nation of Trouble.

What do you think?"
