The Jagged Empire of Daqin
Page 50
The current Daqin can't stand such a toss. He often feels distressed for spending one or two more wins. He will already feel distressed for winning if he hosts a banquet to welcome him in Fengtian Temple. For the first time in hundreds of years, Ying Chang wanted to ask Bo Shu to come to the Imperial Study to discuss matters.
"It's all cumbersome and miscellaneous rituals, no problem!" Bo Shu replied with a smile.
Bo Shu also knew that the Qin Empire was not in good condition, otherwise His Majesty would not have spent money and food to support the Qin Empire in resisting the Jin Dynasty, so he had no dissatisfaction at all.
"Emissary Qi, I think how about talking about business first, and then drinking and having fun?" Ying Chang said with a smile, and went straight to the theme of this dinner.
Well...
Bo Shu was stunned, he didn't expect Yingchang to be so straightforward, he was a little stunned, then got up from his seat, saluted Yingchang's editor with a smile on his face all the time and said: "Since Emperor Qin is so direct Refresh, then the foreign ministers will not procrastinate. The foreign ministers came here this time under the order of our emperor to escort 30 shi of grain and 100 million taels of silver to Qin, so as to express our great Qi's heart to help Qin and resist Jin. He also carries the credentials of our country, hoping to form an ally with Great Qin!"
"Haha!" Yingchang chuckled, and said with a smile on his face: "I have seen Daqi's sincerity, and I am willing to sign an alliance agreement on behalf of Daqin!"
Chapter 135 50 Jin troops attack!
Fadao reminds you: ask for collection () after reading, and it is more convenient to read again.
Bo Shu was not surprised that Yingchang agreed so readily, because the Qin Empire signed an alliance agreement with the Qi Empire, which has all advantages and no disadvantages.
A red-armored guard standing behind Boshu took out two pieces of red silk. The content on the silk was the same, and a big red seal was stamped on them. These were the two credentials prepared by Da Qi. Qi Qin Each country holds one copy.
Tang Hua stepped down from the high platform, took the two national letters with both hands, and then put the national letters on the imperial table for Ying Chang to read.
"Emperor Qin, as long as the alliance agreement is signed, Daqi and Daqin will be allies. Merchants from the two countries can do business with each other. Before the Qin and Jin armistice, Dajin will help Daqin with 40 shi of grain and 100 million taels of silver every year. Each batch of supplies will be divided into two escorts!"
"After the armistice between the Qin and Jin Dynasties, the Daqi Empire will no longer provide assistance. At the same time, if Daqi is invaded by other countries, when Daqi asks Daqin for help, Daqin must send troops for free in accordance with the alliance agreement!" He saluted and replied.
"Send troops for free?"
"It turns out that the Qi Empire has this idea!"
"It really deserves to be a big business country, so good at doing business!"
"Qi has money and food, Qin has military strength, the two sides are complementary!"
"But why do I feel that we have lost too much?"
When the civil and military officials heard about sending troops for free, they began to discuss it, thinking it was a bit bad.
Although the general allies would ask the allies to send troops to aid, they were all paid. Pensions and food consumption can all be concluded. Now the Qi Empire has sent troops to aid for free, which makes some ministers feel a little uncomfortable.
After listening to Bo Shu's words, Ying Chang smiled inwardly.
Really cunning!
Yingchang is very clear that the Qi Empire does not need and does not expect the Qin Empire to send troops to help. After all, the Qin Empire is no longer able to protect itself. He said this just to cover up the real purpose, otherwise he would not mention a single request. , It will make people feel that being courteous for nothing is either rape or stealing.
His real purpose, Ying Chang had guessed a long time ago, was nothing more than to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, so that Qin and Jin could fight as hard as possible. When the Qin Empire was about to perish and the Jin Empire was exhausted, he would take off his mask and reveal Ferocious face!
Ying Chang picked up the Seal of Emperor Qin beside the imperial table and smashed it down heavily.
For an emperor like Yingchang, the alliance agreement is just a piece of waste paper, oh no, it is a piece of useless waste silk and satin. As long as the Great Qin Empire is strong enough, Great Qin can ignore any agreements and rules, and when the time comes, the alliance agreement will be ignored. It is not the Great Qin Empire that decides not to send troops to aid, whether it is free or paid, it is also the Great Qin Empire that has the final say.
At that point, the Great Qi Empire is not qualified to negotiate terms.
Seeing Ying Chang affix the seal of the Emperor Qin, Bo Shu smiled unrecognizably.
All the officials of the Great Qin Dynasty also remained silent about this, choosing to believe in Yingchang, and believing that Yingchang has a sense of proportion.
After the two letters of credence were completed, Yingchang ordered Tang Hua to return one of the letters of credence to Bo Shu, who carefully accepted it and hid it in a brocade box, while the other copy was kept by the Great Qin Empire itself.
Next, the banquet was officially held, and the dancers and musicians in the palace danced for the great people present, and the hall was full of celebration and joy.
The next day, Bo Shu returned to Daqi with his people.
As soon as Boshu left, Yingchang immediately asked someone to liquidate the supplies sent by the Qi Empire, and found that there was no shortage of silver, but the food was four or five thousand shi short, but he was not surprised by this, after all, the people who escorted the food also had to eat.
After counting the materials, Jia Luo, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, immediately filled the treasury, so that the treasury could be enriched again.
......
"Did you see the announcement? Our Daqin has joined forces with the Qi Empire!"
"Yeah, I really didn't expect it!"
"What a surprise, old man. I, Da Qin and Qi have been at odds for a hundred years, but I never thought that the first person to lend a helping hand in this crisis is the Qi Empire, which has been at odds for many years!"
"Our Daqin has crossed allies. Qin and Jin are very popular among the countries of the Kyushu. I don't know how many empires envy our relationship between Qin and Jin. But this kind of relationship has stabbed us in the heart and made us lose the fertile soil of the four counties. !"
"As the saying goes, a friend in adversity sees the truth. It is precisely because of this kind of crisis that we, Daqin, know our true allies!"
"The Jin Empire has wolfish ambitions. After his actions, I think there will be an empire that is willing to make friends with the Jin Empire in the future. To make good friends with the Jin Empire is to feed tigers and be eaten by tigers in the end!"
After the announcement by the Great Qin court, the common people knew that the Qin Empire and the Qi Empire had signed an alliance agreement. This agreement surprised the Qin people. After being surprised, they were moved. By the way, he mocked the Jin Empire.
After Boshu returned to China, Emperor Qi also issued a notice, announcing that Qin and Qi were allies. Qimin's views on the alliance agreement were completely different from those of Qinmin. To die, to repay the pain of the fiasco in the past, of course, this is a later story.
Although it is a later story, it has to be mentioned that the people of the two countries are speaking from their own standpoints, but the same thing is that they do not know the deep meaning of the alliance agreement signed by the imperial court. They only see the surface, but not the behind hidden purpose.
......
In the days to come, Daqin will develop its national strength steadily...
However, the good times don't last long...
On March [-]th, the ninth year of Shengqin, eight months have passed since the Battle of Yangguan!
Yangguan Camp!
Since the [-] Jingshi army and the Yangguan army were merged into one, the strength of Yangguan has soared from [-] to [-], including [-] light cavalry, [-] sword shield soldiers, [-] spearmen, and crossbowmen. Six thousand, of which four thousand crossbowmen are equipped with five-stone crossbows, and two thousand crossbowmen are equipped with eight-stone crossbows.
In addition, there are [-] ballistas controlled by [-] ballistas.
Yangguan has been replenished with troops, and its defense power has been greatly improved!
Handsome account!
In the commander's tent, Bai Qi wore a red cloak, and sat on the commander's seat with an indifferent face. More than a dozen captains in the army stood on both sides, and Xiaoqi General Luo Xing stood at the front on the right. Their expressions were solemn, Without saying a word, he looked at Bai Qi, as if waiting for Bai Qi to speak.
At this time, Bai Qi showed a solemn look that had never been seen before, and the purple-red skin on his forehead wrinkled slightly.
Just received a report from scouts, a huge army was found a hundred miles east of Yangguan, how big is it?The scouts said that there were so many Jin soldiers in dark blue armor that they couldn't see the end at a glance, and they were marching in the west!
PS: "Please ask for a full order, please recommend a ticket, and ask for a monthly ticket. I hope you can help me and let me have a hot bite. Here, I would like to thank you for your support, thank you very much!"
Chapter 136 National Panic
Calculating the time, this huge Jin army should not be far from Yangguan. After all, it took three or four days for the scouts to return to Yangguan. In these few days, this Jin army will naturally not stop.
"King Wu, according to the description of the scouts, the Jin Empire probably dispatched hundreds of thousands this time!" Luo Xing finally couldn't help but speak first, breaking the silence in the commander's tent.
"Yeah, I heard that the Jin Empire is recruiting on a large scale this time, and there are almost 30 to [-] soldiers!"
"It seems that we are going to fight a tough battle!"
"Yeah yeah!"
The captains in the commander's tent began to discuss, everyone's expression was full of solemnity, and there was a faint feeling in their hearts that this was a battle related to the life and death of the Great Qin. If they lost, the Great Qin Empire would perish. If they won, the Great Jin Empire would come back within five years. There is no ability to attack Qin!
"Soldiers come to block the water and cover it with soil, pass on the king's military order, move all the ballistas to the city wall, and prepare to fight the enemy!" Bai Qi ordered in a cold voice with no expression on his face.
No matter how many thousands there are on the other side, be prepared first!
"Obey!" All the captains shouted in unison.
Bai Qi slightly turned his head to look at Luo Xing, and said in a neutral tone: "Send someone to notify the imperial court!"
"Obey!" Luo Xing bent down again and responded.
When the news came out, the soldiers of the Yangguan Camp began to get nervous, and they were a little apprehensive, but they didn't lose their footing.
Three days later!
At three quarters in the afternoon, Xianyang City, the Imperial Palace, and the Imperial Study Room!
Ying Chang was concentrating on reviewing the memorials, and whenever he saw the happy performances from various places, a gratified smile would flash across his face.
The Great Qin Empire is rising like the sun, and I believe it will not be long before the scorching sun of the Great Qin Empire will release the most violent sunlight!
Tang Hua, on the other hand, squatted respectfully aside, constantly rubbing his ink for the sake of winning.
"His Majesty!"
At this time, a voice came from outside the imperial study room, Ying Chang and Tang Hua looked up subconsciously, and saw a court lady standing outside respectfully, reporting to Ying Chang: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has something urgent to ask His Majesty! "
"Urgent matter?" Ying Chang frowned slightly, "Let him in!"
"Obey!" The court lady bowed and quickly retreated.
Not long after, Chang Zifei, who was wearing a black official robe with a white crane riding a cloud, walked into the imperial study in a hurry. Seeing Chang Zifei's anxious appearance, Ying Chang couldn't help but smiled and said: " Chang Xiang, why is this in such a hurry?"
"Hey!"
Chang Zifei sighed softly, and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, something serious has happened. Just now, Yangguan Daying sent someone to report that hundreds of thousands of Jin troops will come to pass soon!"
"Really?" Ying Chang smiled indifferently, "I never thought that my uncle would be quite courageous. He dared to send hundreds of thousands of soldiers in one go. It seems that he wants to eat me Daqin in one bite!"
Seeing that Yingchang was so calm, Chang Zifei was immediately surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty doesn't seem surprised by this. Could it be that His Majesty has already guessed it?"
"Is it hard to guess?" Ying Chang smiled disapprovingly.
"Uh..." Chang Zifei was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing what to say.
"Does Your Majesty have a countermeasure?" Chang Zifei looked at Ying Chang with full expectation in his eyes, hoping that Ying Chang could come up with a perfect plan.
Yingchang shook his head, "I don't have any countermeasures yet, but there's no need to panic, the soldiers will come and cover you up!"
Chang Zifei couldn't help but feel a burst of disappointment in his heart, and sighed softly: "Your Majesty, I have to panic, this is not tens of thousands, but hundreds of thousands of troops. If the Jin army has 40, it will be compared to my Daqin army." Half the population!"
Ying Changdu glanced at Chang Zifei, and reprimanded in his tone: "What's the use of your panic? Could it be that if you panic, the Jin Empire will retreat? Could it be that if you panic, we can win? If you panic, it will only make you If I mess up my position, it will not benefit the situation at all!"
Chang Zifei couldn't help lowering his head, showing shame, "I would like to follow His Majesty's instruction!"
The two fell silent, and Tang Hua, who was standing by the side, didn't dare to say anything, and the atmosphere became oppressive instantly.
"This battle is about the survival of Great Qin. I decided to personally supervise the battle to boost morale!" Ying Chang said in a deep voice with no expression on his face.
The dignified prime minister, Chang Zifei, was panicked by the hundreds of thousands of Jin troops, let alone those ordinary soldiers, so he must personally supervise the battle, boost morale, and let the soldiers know that the Great Qin Emperor is with them!
"Ah?" Chang Zifei was stunned for a moment, and Tang Hua was also startled.
His Majesty wants to come to the battlefield in person?
"Your Majesty is the backbone of my Qin officials' democracy. You should sit in the imperial palace and rule the world. You must not take huge risks to personally supervise the war. I beg your majesty to take back the holy words!" Chang Zifei knelt down and begged Yingchang to take back his last sentence.
As Chang Zifei said, winning is often the backbone of the Great Qin's subjects, if something happens, the consequences will be disastrous!
"If I lose, can I still sit in the palace safely? Besides, I am a master of half-step perfection, who can kill me? Could it be that the Jin Empire has Jin Wu King?" Ying Chang said resolutely.
"This...."
Ying Chang suddenly interrupted: "Okay, I have made up my mind, there is no need to dissuade me. After I leave, you will take care of all the government affairs!"
"Your servant...obey the order!" Chang Zifei responded rather helplessly.
"Tang Hua!" Ying Chang called softly!
"Your servant is here!" Tang Hua hurriedly saluted.
"You don't have to go with me. You have to take care of some chores in the palace. I don't want to see the palace in a mess as soon as I come back!" Ying Chang looked at Tang Hua and urged.
"Slave obeys the orders!" Tang Hua replied respectfully.
"Also, you sent General Hushi to enter the palace, and ordered Li Ming, the deputy commander, to pick out two thousand imperial guards and prepare to follow me to Yangguan. Don't neglect!" Ying Chang ordered with a solemn expression and a dignified tone.
"Obey!" Tang Hua replied again.
"Bather and change clothes!"
Under the service of Tang Hua, Ying Chang took a bath, and then changed into a neat black dragon robe. As soon as Du Changjing entered the palace, Ying Chang and Du Changjing led two thousand imperial forest troops out of the palace, aiming directly at Yang. close!
Xianyang City!
"Brother Li, I heard the news that the dog emperor of the Jin Empire has sent hundreds of thousands of troops to attack us, and they are about to be sent down soon!"
"What did you say? Is this true or false?"
"I'm not particularly clear, just listen to the gossip!"
"I hope it's fake!"
"Hey, look, what is that?"
"It's the Imperial Forest Army, my God, there are so many Imperial Forest Army, let's say less than a thousand!"
