Douluo: Barak Rising

Chapter 66

After the ceremony, the banquet officially opened.

But obviously, most people's minds are not on eating and drinking, especially those on the Tiandou side, but Lao Huang is an exception.

A sip of wine, a sip of meat, that is called nourishment, that is called happiness.

From time to time, he raised his wine glass and clinked glasses with Jiang Yunlai, watching Xue Qinghe next to him grit his teeth, wishing he could swallow him alive.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Tiandou finally got down to business.

But the person who spoke was not Xue Qinghe, but Wei Yang, because Qian Renxue, who knew Barak's strength well, felt that Jiang Yun had absolutely no possibility of agreeing.

So let this kind of bad luck be left to others.

She had already lost too much face in Barak Kingdom, if she continued to lose face, she would really have no face to go back to see Emperor Xue Ye.

"Reporting to King Yun, besides expressing congratulations to King Yun on his succession this time, we have one more question to ask King Yun." Wei Yang came to the center of the hall from his seat and saluted.

"But it's okay to say." Jiang Yun naturally knew what they wanted to do, but he didn't expose it.

Wei Yangdao: "According to the news received by our country, the Star Luo Empire is preparing for a new round of war. I wonder how your country is going to deal with it?"

The news that they have a fart is just a guess, but if you don't say that, this topic will not be easy to expand. Anyway, this guess has a high probability of coming true.

"Oh? I don't know what good strategy Tiandou has?" Jiang Yun asked following his words.

Xue Qinghe raised his head and glanced at Jiang Yun. He was still so calm after hearing the news. It seemed that he had expected it a long time ago.

But when you think about it, it is a country anyway, and there will definitely be no shortage of smart people in the court, so it is not surprising to be able to guess.

Wei Yang said tentatively: "King Yun has just succeeded to the throne, and the internal situation has not yet stabilized completely, and the losses caused by the mutiny are not small. I am afraid that he is a little weak against Xingluo now?"

Jiang Yun didn't reply, just looked at him lightly, quietly waiting for his next words.

Seeing this, Wei Yang was a little embarrassed, but still he could only bite the bullet and say: "Before leaving, Your Majesty asked my minister to convey His Majesty's attitude on your behalf."

"Your country has established diplomatic relations with our country for a long time. If your country is in trouble, our country will definitely not sit idly by. If your country needs assistance, you can speak up."

Talking is an art.

At this time, Wei Yang naturally would not mention any vassal state, but replaced it with a long-established diplomatic relationship to show his respect for Barak.

In other words, if Barak asks for help from Tiandou, it is not asking for help, but cooperation.

In this way, even if the Kingdom of Balak really asks for help from Tiandou, it will not be criticized in face if it is spread.

To put it bluntly, Tiandou gave Barak a step, a step that could not only ask for help, but also save Barak's face.

Hearing this, Jiang Yun pretended to be overjoyed and said excitedly: "That would be great, my king is worried about this."

Hearing this, Wei Yang couldn't help but feel happy. He thought it would be very difficult, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.

But Xue Qinghe couldn't help but frowned.

With Barack's current strength, even if the strength of the soul master army is not high, it should still have no problem withstanding Xingluo's offensive.

That being the case, why did Jiang Yun do this?
She felt that what Jiang Yun was going to say next was definitely not that simple, and it would definitely not go in the way they expected.

After the excitement, Jiang Yun tentatively asked: "Is it really possible to provide any assistance?"

Wei Yang frowned slightly, why did he have an ominous premonition?
But it has been pushed to this point, Wei Yang can't change his words and say it depends on the situation, or just refuse all assistance except troops, right?

If he really dared to do this, then the assignment this time would not be completed.

"This is natural. With the friendship between your country and our country for many years, it is naturally impossible for our country to let your country fall into danger."

Jiang Yun said happily: "So, very good, our country has really encountered a problem now, and I don't know how to solve it."

Wei Yang said: "King Jiang, please tell me."

Jiang Yun sighed and said, "Hey, your country must also know that I, Barak, are just a kingdom after all, and the land area is not as large as a province in your country."

"Over the years, in order to resist the invasion of the Star Luo Empire, almost all of our country's income has been invested in the construction of the army."

"It's easy to build an army, but it's hard to raise an army. Let's be honest, our country's treasury has already been strained. If this continues, I'm afraid there will be no need for Xingluo to attack us. We will drag ourselves down."

Jiang Yun didn't mean to sell miserably, but that Barak's treasury was really empty.

Barak is only a little older, but he maintains nearly a million troops, and the annual military expenditure is an astronomical figure for Barak.

When Dad Cheap was still in power, he even drafted several disarmament documents because of the excessive military expenditure.

But there is no way, Barak can be said to be the only country on the Douluo Continent that is threatened by war. If the military strength is not enough, it will be annexed sooner or later.

Even if it is not annexed by Xingluo, it will be annexed by Tiandou or even other kingdoms.

For a country, especially a weak country, the importance of military power is unquestionable, and it must be guaranteed no matter how difficult it is.

Therefore, the matter of disarmament was finally dismissed.

But now that the Heaven Dou Empire took the initiative to send him to slaughter him, how could Jiang Yun have any reason to turn a blind eye?

Without waiting for Wei Yang to speak, Jiang Yun said directly: "So, our country wants to seek some financial assistance from the Heaven Dou Empire."

"Of course, your country can rest assured that our country will issue IOUs, and the due interest will not be less, and we will definitely pay it back."

return?
It's still impossible to pay back. Why should I pay back the money I borrowed based on my ability?
When one day he wins the Heaven Dou Empire, the entire Heaven Dou Empire will belong to him, Jiang Yun, how can there be any talk of paying back the money?
"what?"

Hearing Jiang Yun's words, Wei Yang was in a daze, but Xue Qinghe, who was not far away, looked exactly as I expected.

She could see it, although Jiang Yun was young, but he was a ghost.

If you want to take advantage of him, it's not that simple, you'll lose all your pants.

Fortunately, she was smart enough and did not choose to continue to suffer from this bad luck, otherwise it would be her who is suffering now.

As early as when she received the information about Barak, she knew that this mission was impossible to complete. As for why she didn't tell Wei Yang and others.

This trip, she couldn't be the only one who made mistakes, otherwise how would she explain it when she went back?

We all came here together, so why should you go back happily? The law does not blame everyone. If you want to die, everyone will die together.

If someone makes a bigger mistake, is her mistake still a mistake?
