Chapter 86: Sit firmly in Anyang
Yan Ze'an sighed all the way; the body had been taken away, but the ground was still red.↑In the early morning, there was still the smell of gunpowder and an unsettling smell here.
The war horses in front of them were whistling uneasyly, and the coachman had to pay extra attention to driving the carriage.
When Yan Ze'an went to Anyang, Li Xian was doing the final "training" with Xu Ren and others. "First of all, we must understand how they got the gunpowder formula. Secondly, we don't need any political concessions, which means nothing to us, we only need commercial ones.
We need to open up a huge market, we need a raw material and a source of resources.”
Everyone discussed the discussion, Song Xing ran over and said, "Young Master..."
"Wait!" Xu Ren suddenly spoke, "With Mr. Li's current identity and influence, it is not appropriate to call him a young master or a young master or a young master. Especially next time we are going to negotiate with Cai State, these details must be paid attention to.
Well, what about calling a general? When there are outsiders, call a general. When there are no outsiders, keep the original habit.
It seems unfamiliar to call the master, and it is obviously inappropriate to call him. It is most appropriate to call him 'General'."
Li Xian immediately agreed: "What sir said is. From now on, I will call myself a general. Ha, we are also the general who commands one side."
Song Xing was very clever and immediately changed his words, with a loud voice: "General, Prime Minister Cai has visited and has arrived at the border."
"Open the city gate and welcome it."
Then, Li Xian, Xu Ren and others came to the gate of the city lord's mansion, waiting for the arrival of Prime Minister Yan Ze'an of Cai. A carriage and a dozen servants were swaying and calmly, and stopped ten feet away from Li Xian. Prime Minister Yan Ze'an got off the car slowly and walked slowly towards Li Xian.
Li Xian has always been very calm on the surface about Yan Ze'an's behavior, just watching him quietly - I just watched you pretend, pretending hard, pretending.
Yan Zean slowly walked to Li Xian and smiled proudly: "Young Master Li is indeed young and promising."
Unexpectedly, Li Xian suddenly sneered and his voice was loud, "Prime Minister Strictly! Why did Cai attack our Daxia for no reason, causing tens of thousands of men in Daxia to bury their bones at the border, and every family in Anyang wears mourning!"
The guards from Anyang around him were even more glaring. The guards in front even directly untied the long swords on their waists and stood on the ground. There was a thud of thunder from the ground.
A faint aura suddenly spread. These guards were all drawn from the front line of the battlefield, with evil spirits turbulent and fierce murderous intent.
Yan Ze'an was immediately stunned. Damn, you're still picking it up. But considering the current situation and considering that the Daxia Kingdom might have already made a Northern Expedition, Prime Minister Yan still had to give in. He just now gave up with a cautious apology, "Hey, we are also being provoked by villains..."
Li Xian smiled and said, "I am not a gentleman. Otherwise, as long as you, Cai State can send 100,000 troops to attack Chen State, I will give you 5 spirit stones. Every time I capture a county of Chen State, I will give you 3 spirit stones. If you can destroy Chen State, I will give you 30 spirit stones! How about it?"
Yan Zean was dumbfounded, I said, is there anyone who negotiated like this?!
Actually, let alone Yan Zean, even Xu Ren was stunned - Master, your negotiation attitude opened my eyes.
The scene was silent for a while. After a long time, Yan Zean said with a pale expression: "Hey... we are powerless now. The 200,000 troops were defeated. Our country of Cai is no longer able to send troops within ten years."
Li Xian's tone was still firm: "Who ordered the attack on my Daxia Kingdom?"
"This...of course it's Your Majesty..."
"Okay, you will..."
"Ahem." Xu Ren quickly interrupted Li Xian's passion. If you continue, the negotiations will really collapse. Now it's enough to make a move.
Li Xian also said it was easy, and felt too satisfying. He almost said "Send the head of Emperor Cai"; he woke up after hearing Xu Ren's reminder, and accidentally raised his tail again. He quickly calmed down his face, "Then, Your Majesty Cai must apologize to Your Majesty the Emperor of Daxia."
This condition is very good and reasonable, and can earn enough political capital for Li Xian. Li Xian does not need the political concessions of Cai State, but needs the political capital in Daxia. Xu Ren nodded secretly after hearing this, and the conditions were raised too well.
Yan Ze'an was difficult to deal with. This matter was too embarrassing, but this time it was really impossible to refuse - Li Xian's request was too reasonable. "This matter needs to be returned to Your Majesty. Please forgive me for not being able to agree."
"Then Prime Minister Yan, can you decide on those things, huh?"
"I...I can't decide anything. I'm here today just to see what Mr. Li means first." The prime minister was already stunned by Li Xian's repeated uneasy and common sense playing cards.
Li Xian's tone became gentle for the first time, but it was still strong: "Okay, my meaning is very obvious.
First, Cai State must apologize to Daxia State.
Secondly, the war in Anyang suffered as much as 450 spirit stones and 200,000 taels of gold, and must be compensated.
Third, the caravan signed by Anyang, Cai State must not make any trouble.
Fourth, the three generals of Cai State, Wang Qisheng, Yan Zhengqing and Lu Chenggang, came to our military camp to apologize and burn incense for the soldiers who died in battle.
Fifth, Cai State must promise that within 10 years, no excuses shall be allowed to invade Daxia State.
At most seven days, I need to hear the reply, otherwise I will bear the consequences!"
Prime Minister Yan Ze'an didn't even enter the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and was sent back by Li Xian. He kept leaving the Anyang border, and the Prime Minister's expression suddenly became gloomy, "What a cunning little fox. What a greedy demon wolf!"
The servant next to him did not dare to answer the conversation, but just drove the carriage quietly.
On Li Xian's side, after Yan Ze'an left the Anyang territory, he immediately wrote the situation here into a letter and asked Song Xing to whip it to his father Li Yulong.
The reason why this negotiation did not allow Yan Ze'an to enter the door was to prevent those who were interested - once they entered the door, many things would be difficult to explain; so Li Xian could only block Yan Ze'an outside the door and talk in public. Sometimes, it was really awesome.
After that, Li Xian began to sort out the matter in Anyang. Now Anyang is really messy, and it is even more messy. It was just getting better, but it was completely disrupted by this war. Especially the Brilliant Star Group in Qingyun Valley, Li Xian's biggest foundation was severely disturbed.
However, there is another serious problem, that is, gunpowder! This time, Li Xian did not mention gunpowder in front of Yan Ze'an, but he had secretly sent people to investigate, especially the prisoners of war, who even forced confessions to a few generals.
In addition, since someone else has produced gunpowder, Li Xian didn't care about keeping the gunpowder confidential and immediately ordered the arsenal to produce gunpowder with all its might; he even prepared to sell gunpowder as the next important commodity.
After three days of busyness, Li Xian finally breathed a sigh of relief, then hugged Xia Qingqing, stood on the wall of Anyang City and looked into the distance, "Qingqing, from today on, I, Li Xian, have truly gained a foothold."
"Yes." Xia Qingqing looked at the countless people around, leaning on Li Xian's shoulder with shyness and happiness, but she also felt countless joy in her heart.
