Chapter 2597: Want to have **** with Da Qin for free? Impossible

Why didn’t Zhang Yi reveal her identity when she arrived in Kunming? Instead, she revealed her identity immediately after entering Nanjing Middle School?

In addition to seeking protection, the more important thing is to actually tell the top management of Nanguo that Zhang Yi is coming, giving the top management of Nanguo an opportunity to prepare in advance.

After all, the Southern Kingdom is a country with almost a million people. It is impossible that there is not even one smart person. It is not difficult to guess the intention of Da Qin's visit.

As Zhang Yi expected, as soon as he revealed his identity, the news was immediately spread back to Kunming.

When Chiyou learned that the Qin envoy on this trip to Nanzhong was actually the Minister of Rites of the Qin Dynasty, he immediately realized that there must be something big going on during the Qin Dynasty's trip.

 After all, the Qin envoys sent by the Qin Dynasty before were only diplomats of the level of Lu Qinghou, but now even the foreign minister has personally taken action.

 The messenger level has reached the highest level. Is this not a big deal?

Chiyou summoned Prime Minister Shi Jieren, Gonggong, Zhu Rong and other senior officials of the Southern Kingdom overnight to discuss the purpose of the Qin envoy's visit.

While everyone was still digesting the news, Prime Minister Shi Jieren had already stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the reason why the Qin envoy came this time is because Liu Yu proclaimed himself emperor."

Chi You was naturally aware of this, but he still asked, "How can you see it?"

Shi Jieren said unhurriedly: "Liu Bian died and Liu Yu succeeded to the throne. This matter has been known to the whole world.

As the overlord of the feudal lords, if Da Qin is left alone, I don’t know how many people will become emperors.

 So, even if it was just to show off to the world, Da Qin would still need to send troops to Shu.

However, after the Shu Kingdom regained Hanzhong, the northern defense line had been completed. Even if the Qin army invaded several times, it could still defend it behind closed doors.

And if Da Qin gets Hanzhong, it can also advance, attack, retreat or defend. "

The former leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult, now the Prime Minister of the Southern Kingdom, Shi Jieren, seems to have been born with facial paralysis.

Except for the time when Chi You pressed the hammer on the ground with one hand, Shi Jieren never showed any expression on his face, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

“Every time Da Qin sends out troops, he will definitely gain something, and since he has sent out one hundred thousand troops this time, he will definitely not be willing to just make a show of it. It is best to seize the opportunity to seize Hanzhong.

The cost of attacking Hanzhong by force is too high, and if we join forces with our southern country, Qin and South China send troops together to attack Shu from the north and the south, it may make the Shu Kingdom unable to care about each other.

In addition, with our southern country in the south to contain the military strength of Shu, the difficulty of Qin's capture of Hanzhong was greatly reduced. "

Shi Jieren, the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult, is worthy of being the think tank of Nanzhong. He could see Zhang Yi’s true purpose at a glance.

His words also made everyone present suddenly realize why Zhang Yi came in person.

It turns out that the Qin Dynasty sent a high-ranking official like Zhang Yi over to express its respect and recognition for the Southern Kingdom.

Now there are only two choices before Nanguo, which is to agree or reject.

 If you agree, we will join forces with Da Qin and start a war with Shu again.

 If you refuse, I’m afraid you won’t be able to think about low-price trade with Da Qin, as well as money and food assistance from now on.

Gonggong couldn't help but yelled: "His grandma has always taken advantage of Da Qin. She thought the people of Da Qin were stupid and rich. It turned out that she had no good intentions towards our southern country from the beginning."

Gonggong has always been in love with Zhu Rong. He has not even married Zhu Rong yet, which shows his single-mindedness.

 But after Zhu Rong went on a mission to the Qin Dynasty, he showed no pretense towards him. No matter how he showed his kindness, even with Chi You's help, Zhu Rong was still unwilling to accept Gong Gong.

Instead of looking for the reason within himself, Gonggong felt that it must be Zhu Rong who went to Da Qin. After seeing the colorful world of the Central Plains, he was attracted by a Han pretty boy, and he couldn't look down on him, a rough southern man. Naturally, he was attracted by it. Da Qin didn't have any good impressions.

Therefore, Gonggong had no sense of gratitude to Da Qin. No matter how much support and help Da Qin had given to the Southern Kingdom, he still felt that Da Qin's support was deserved.

 There are many people in the South who have the same idea as Gonggong.

In their minds, Da Qin is rich all over the world. If they use some to support the Southern Kingdom, they will then accumulate virtues for you.

 So, the Southern Kingdom took advantage of the Qin Dynasty? Can.

 But what if Da Qin takes advantage of the Southern Kingdom? Sorry, no! !

Of course, the vast majority of people in the southern country are still grateful to Da Qin.

 This includes Chi You and Zhu Rong, otherwise Chi You would not have adopted the name given by Ying Hao and named the capital Kunming.

 “A stupid person has a lot of money?”

Shi Jieren frowned and glanced at Gonggong, and said calmly: "General Gonggong's words are not enough, but they are too stupid. If Da Qin is really stupid, how can it become the overlord of the princes?

Da Qin’s things have never been so easy to get.

 In the past, Great Qin would spare no effort to help our Southern Kingdom, but it did not make any demands. It is not that Great Qin has no demands on our Southern Kingdom, but as long as our Southern Kingdom exists and grows, this is the greatest value to Great Qin.

 Now if our southern country wants to continue to grow, it cannot do without Great Qin in all aspects.

Since Great Qin has demands from our Southern Kingdom, our Southern Kingdom must also respond. This is the price of taking advantage of Great Qin. "

"The price? What price can be paid? Can Da Qin bypass Shu and directly send troops to our southern country?" Gonggong said angrily.

When Zhu Rong heard this, he said angrily: "Although Da Qin cannot bypass Shu and directly send troops to the Southern Kingdom, it can stop conducting sea trade with our Southern Kingdom.

 If the goods in the warehouse cannot be sold, leather and the like can be preserved for a long time, but the fruits grown with hard work can only rot in the warehouse.

　　Not only will our southern country’s finances be greatly reduced, but the development of various places will also stagnate or even regress.

In addition, if there is no extra funds to purchase grain from Daqin, many people may go hungry.

Isn’t this more cruel than sending troops directly?

Do you, Gonggong, want to go back to the hard days of the past? "

"Hiss..." Gonggong took a deep breath when he heard this. He was just angry, not really stupid. After thinking about it carefully, he immediately discovered the problem.

 Everyone present, including Gonggong, also knew it in their hearts.

The reason why the Southern Barbarians have been able to develop so fast in the past two or three years is not only because Chi You hired the right people in the right positions, but also because of the commercial trade and various support with Da Qin, which gave the Southern Kingdom enough resources to Support the country’s rapid development.

 The maritime trade between Nanguo and Daqin accounted for 60% of the country's total finance.

If sea trade with Da Qin could not be carried out, the leather, herbs, gems and other goods accumulated in the warehouse would have no value to the Southern Kingdom.

Without the 60% revenue brought by sea trade, it would be a devastating blow to the now prosperous Southern Kingdom.

 As for whether these goods can be sold to neighboring countries? Regardless of whether the surrounding countries are willing to do business with the Southern Kingdom, even if Shu, Chu and other countries are willing, they cannot eat so many goods from the Southern Kingdom.

 At this thought, everyone, including Gonggong, felt a little heavy, because the price of rejecting Da Qin was really too high to bear.

"This is a conspiracy that Great Qin uses to tie up our Southern Kingdom with interests until we can no longer live without it, so we have to listen to Great Qin and help Great Qin do things within its capabilities. However, our Southern Kingdom is also willing to do so and cannot complain. Others." Chi You said calmly.

Gonggong said in confusion: "My lord, since you have known this for a long time, why are you still willing to be used by Da Qin?"

Chi You's eyes flashed with bitterness, and he said indifferently: "Everything you do has a price.

Our southern country attacked Shu five times, but not only failed to shake Shu at all, but also exhausted its own foundation.

Yizhou is rich. Under Liu Yu's governance, it took only two years to not only completely recover, but also become stronger than before.

 But our southern country is a barren land. Even if we devote ourselves to development for five years, it may not be able to compare with the national strength gained by Shu in one year.

If the Southern Kingdom does not cooperate with the Qin Dynasty and only relies on its own recovery and development, will it have to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse to recover? "

Chi You was naturally well aware of the risks and hidden dangers of cooperating with Da Qin.

But as he said, if Nanzhong wants nothing, how can it recover and develop quickly without cooperation with Daqin?

Therefore, only by cooperating with Da Qin can the development speed of the Southern Kingdom catch up with the Shu Kingdom, and the gap between the Southern Kingdom and the Shu Kingdom will not be widened.

“Besides, Da Qin used the Southern Kingdom to contain Shu, so how could we, the Southern Kingdom, not use Da Qin?

The two countries of Qin and Nan are willing to use each other, and it is beneficial to both parties. It cannot be said that who suffers and who takes advantage. "

As soon as Chiyou said this, even Gonggong had nothing to say.

Shi Jieren immediately said: "The envoy of the Qin Dynasty will arrive in Kunming in the near future, and there is not much time left for us to discuss. The prime minister's opinion is that since the Great Qin has demands from our southern country, our southern country must have In response, we, Nanguo, can strive for the best interests.”

Chi You's eyes immediately lit up after hearing this. He knew from the beginning that it was impossible for the Southern Kingdom to reject Da Qin, and what he really wanted to hear was how to maximize interests.

Prime Minister Shi Jieren really understands his lord, unlike Gonggong, who always pretends to be confused because of his children's personal relationship, regardless of the interests of the entire southern country.

“Prime Minister, come quickly.” Chi You said expectantly.

"Nuo, Da Qin wants to use our Southern Kingdom to seize Hanzhong, and our Southern Kingdom can also use Da Qin to plan southern Shu. If the plan is good, this will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our Southern Kingdom."

　　——————

"I already know the purpose of your envoy's visit, so I will tell you directly. The Southern Kingdom agrees to send troops, but in addition to these funds, I also hope that Da Qin will agree to the Southern Kingdom on one condition." Chi You said to Zhang Yi with a smile.

Zhang Yi couldn't help being stunned. He thought it would take a lot of words, but he didn't expect it to be so easy. It seems that the Southern Kingdom also intends to weaken the Shu Kingdom.

“Please make it clear what the king’s conditions are,” Zhang Yi said.

"It's very simple. Our southern country agrees to send troops, but the national strength of Shu is strong. Our southern country is far from being an opponent. We need Da Qin to start a war against Shu in Hanzhong first, so that our southern country dares to send troops to attack Shu."

After Chi You finished speaking, he thought Zhang Yi would shirk the situation, but unexpectedly, a bright smile appeared on Zhang Yi's face, and he said without hesitation: "This condition is not excessive. I agree on behalf of Da Qin."

As soon as these words came out, not only Chi You and Shi Jie, but also the civil and military officials of the Southern Kingdom and Manchu Dynasty were stunned.

Zhang Yi's reaction was a little beyond everyone's expectations. After all, if the Qin Dynasty went to war with Shu first and attracted all the Shu troops, wouldn't all the benefits belong to the Southern Kingdom?

Is Daqin willing to get no benefits at all and be used by the Southern Barbarians in vain?

Chi You was also a little unsure, and asked hesitantly: "Don't you think about it? At least you should send a letter to Luoyang and report it to Luoyang."

Zhang Yi did not hesitate at all and said decisively: "No need, this matter is within my duties and I can make my own decision.

As long as the Southern Barbarians agree to send troops, we, the Qin Dynasty, can take the lead in launching a war against Shu. "

Facing the pie that was delivered to his door, Chi You was a little afraid to eat it. He glanced at Shi Jieren subconsciously, only to find that he also had a frown on his face.

Shi Jieren noticed Chi You's gaze, hesitated for a while and then nodded at him.

Seeing this, Chi You smiled and said to Zhang Yi: "In that case, let's sign the letter of credence. As long as the news of the war at Yangping Pass is sent back, our southern country will definitely abide by its promise and send troops to attack Shu."

"good…"

After working for a long time, Zhang Yi finally got rid of the Southern ministers. As soon as he returned to the embassy, ​​he immediately wrote a letter, preparing to send it to Li Jing in front of Yangping Pass through flying pigeons.

Yuwen Tuo, Bu Jingyun, Gao Jianli and other New Seven Swordsmen looked at each other in confusion. Bu Jingyun, who was still straight-tempered, could not hold back and asked: "Sir, why did you agree to the conditions of the Southern Kingdom? I, the great Qin Dynasty, went to war with the Shu Kingdom and defeated the Shu army. If we are attracted to Hanzhong, won’t all the benefits be taken by the Southern Kingdom?”

“Yes, my lord, for me, Da Qin, it is up to us whether we send troops to Yangping Pass this time or not.

If all the benefits go to the Southern Kingdom, then what is the point of sending troops this time? "Ye Gucheng said.

Zhang Yi continued to write rapidly, but said without looking back: "Don't be too short-sighted like Nan Guo, everyone should take a long-term view.

 There are indeed smart people in the South, but they are not smart enough.

On the surface, this matter is a loss for our country, Great Qin, but in fact, as long as the Southern Kingdom sends troops, the situation will be beyond their control.

 It is not easy to take advantage of Da Qin. "
