"We greet the prince!"
"What are you going to do?"
Ning Que looked coldly.
He raised his hand to order Tie Niu to impose martial law.
The family guards all walked forward.
Use the scabbard to separate the people.
Ning Que is not usually arrogant.
He would greet even the humble old farmer.
He is famous for being close to the people in Chang'an City.
But Samuel is here too.
He was afraid that someone would do something bad to her.
The letters of credence have not yet been formally signed.
Samuel can't afford to make any mistakes.
If she is assassinated, Xiliang will definitely go to war!
The alliance that was negotiated with great difficulty will be in vain.
"Iron Ox, protect the princess."
"promise!"
Ning Que walked forward.
His eyes scanned them one by one.
Finally, it fell on Lin Chao.
Why did this guy come out again?
It's true that you won't cry until you see the coffin.
"Your Majesty, are you really going to give Xiliang food?"
"We won the battle, why should we be given food?"
"If we give it to him, wouldn't our fight be in vain?"
"Your Highness, many of us have died at the hands of Xiliang. My father fought on the battlefield and had both legs crippled by the Xiliang people. Now he can only lie in bed. We have no objection to fighting for our country. But now you want to give 100,000 dan of grain to Xiliang, why not give it to us as a servant?!"
"Yeah, are we inferior to others?"
"You don't help Fengren, but you help Xiliang?!"
It really doesn't let him have peace!
Ning Que looked helpless.
There is no need to think about it, someone must be secretly instigating it.
He signaled Tie Niu to escort Samur to retreat first.
It would be safer if we went into the inn first.
"Is that what you all think?"
"Yes, we all refuse to accept it!"
"Your Majesty must give an explanation today!"
Lin Chao had no intention of hiding at all.
He came here to cause trouble for Ning Que.
Besides, what do they have reason to be afraid of?
He just didn't believe that Ning Que could do anything.
Ning Que looked at the excited crowd and patiently explained, "Yes, I do intend to provide Xiliang with 100,000 dan of grain and 5,000 jin of immortal tea. But do you know why I am doing this?"
In fact, he didn't need to explain at all.
How dare these people cause trouble?
Do you think the Inspection Office is just there to eat and do nothing?
No need to say too much.
Let me hit him with three sticks first and see if he still makes trouble.
Don't you even consider his identity? How dare you question the prince?
To put it simply, they were just angry and out of control.
To put it bluntly, it is disrespectful to Your Majesty.
In broad daylight, he attempted to assassinate Prince Ning!
The matter of the alliance is not something that Ning Que can decide alone.
He couldn't make the final decision without the emperor's tacit approval.
"Let me ask you, is Xiliang a weak country?"
"no!"
"It's good that you know." Ning Que looked at them and sighed, "I hate Xiliang more than any of you. My father and brother both died in the Battle of Yumen Pass. Xiliang and Dafeng fought for hundreds of years for Jiuquan, and countless heroes shed their blood in the desert."
"This time, I have exhausted all my efforts and finally facilitated peace talks. From now on, the two countries will trade at Jiuquan, sharing what they have. Xiliang will submit and send a hostage, and Dafeng will be able to station troops in Lingnan."
"Xiliang is also a powerful nation, with a strong military and powerful cavalry. They have been locked in a war with Dafeng for hundreds of years. Every year they invade the border and plunder, resulting in countless casualties. They have made numerous concessions since the signing of this alliance. Dafeng's contribution of 100,000 dan of grain is merely a reward. After all, Xiliang has been building Jiuquan for many years, so consider it a stake. This king believes it is reasonable."
Tie Niu couldn't hold it any longer.
He is a rough man and doesn't understand any big principles.
Therefore, their personalities are often more aggressive.
Looking at the excited people, he cursed angrily, "You bunch of idiots, you don't understand the prince's good intentions at all. Do you think the prince doesn't want to attack Xiliang and avenge his grievances? What is the prince's purpose in personally negotiating peace?"
"Damn it! War means death!"
"Have you ever seen a dead person?"
"Do you know how it feels to have a comrade die next to you?"
Tie Niu choked up as he spoke.
He was originally from Xiliang.
Know Xiliang's capabilities too well.
When two countries are at war, it is difficult for either to be destroyed.
Even if Xiliang can't win, they can still run away.
If Dafeng pursues, the battle line will be lengthened.
If you accidentally get lost, it will be even more dangerous!
In recent years, Xiliang has taken the initiative.
They all run away after fighting once.
Will never stay.
Even if Dafeng pursues, it will be difficult to destroy the main force.
As long as Xiliang wants to run away, Dafeng will find it difficult to catch up.
It is quite rare for Gu Yuan to severely damage their main force this time.
Only then did he receive such commendation and reward from Emperor Feng and be ranked first.
Only after Tie Niu's angry scolding did they calm down.
"So, it seems to be okay?"
"The Xiliang cavalry is not simple..."
"One hundred thousand dan of grain is actually not that much."
They looked at each other and then realized what was happening.
Is 100,000 shi of grain a lot?
Let’s take the army of 200,000 as an example.
People can only eat what horses chew for ten days at most.
This is still the case when we live frugally.
If a war breaks out, Dafeng will have to pay ten times or a hundred times more!
Moreover, it may not be possible to recapture Jiuquan.
That’s right, Dafeng had briefly captured Jiuquan before.
But Xiliang doesn't want to fight against your main force at all.
The number of people sent is small, and they come to harass us every now and then.
If you send a lot of people, you can find an opportunity to cut off the food supply to the rear.
Less than two years later, Dafeng decisively retreated to Yumen Pass.
Can’t you win?
No, it’s Xiliang that doesn’t fight at all!
