One thing is the weakness of the Western Turks. Similarly, it is also the soft hope of Persia and other countries to send troops to the Tang Dynasty. It is precisely for this reason that the Tang Dynasty, the sect leader, has always been very careful. Think about Silla, when Silla was attacked by Baekje and the Japanese, and the revenge immediately launched by the Tang Dynasty made the whole world look at it. Although the Silla royal family was completely eliminated, the Tang Dynasty took advantage of the situation and included the Silla land in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but it made everyone see a fact clearly, that is, don’t make the Tang Dynasty angry. Otherwise, the disaster of destroying the country would not be far away. Think about the fact that the Japanese islands and the Tang Dynasty were far apart from the Tang Dynasty and were still cleaned up, Xue Yantuo was also destroyed. Before the Western Turks had the strength to compete with the Tang Dynasty, they would definitely not dare to challenge the Tang Dynasty.

Negotiations are difficult, and various means are endless. Whether it is blackmail, blackmail or shameless, in short, we can use any tricks that will benefit the Tang Dynasty. Persia and other countries have never thought that diplomatic negotiations will make people such a headache. However, Persia and Central Asian barbarians have no time, but the Tang Dynasty can afford it. After a day of confrontation, everyone had lunch in the negotiation room at noon. Apart from going to the toilet, almost no one left.

The new students also had a deep understanding. They were like kids from kindergarten, sitting blankly behind our butts, watching us fighting with Persian and Central Asian barbarians.

"But we don't have that much copper. Can we trade with other resources? For example, gold, or spices?" The Persian prince squatted together with the envoys of the countries for nearly half an hour after lunch and made this request.

I slowly shook my head: "Gold, I am not short of spices. I am also in Tang Dynasty. What we need is iron and copper. Would you just need more mining?"

The Persian prince smiled bitterly and said, "Sir Fang. This mining does not mean that the land can be mined by mining. It takes time, a lot of time. In addition, we don't have enough iron materials. If we use them for trading, we may not even be able to create arrows." Crying poor, obviously crying poor.

"I understand your difficulties, Your Highness, but I cannot violate the orders from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. We must find a way to be both good and good. Let's talk about how much copper can you provide to me in the Tang Dynasty this year?" I gently knocked on the table with my finger.

"One.5 million kilograms of copper is our limit. Sir, I, Persia and the Tang Dynasty, are thousands of miles apart, and the road is not smooth. It is also our limit to transporting so many copper materials to the Tang Dynasty." After communicating with the envoys of various countries, the Persian prince said to me. Then the Persian prince was afraid that I would not agree, so he quickly said: "We are still willing to transport 300 purebred horses to the Tang Dynasty every year."

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

I pretended to think about it: "No, five hundred horses, of which mares will account for two-thirds." I raised my hand and pointed. "In addition, since your mining technology cannot meet the needs of my Tang Dynasty, otherwise, I will hand it over to me, Datang to offset other expenses. As for mining, we will send people from the local area or ourselves to mine, and the transportation will also be subject to my Tang Dynasty. However, I hope that all countries can invest a certain amount of manpower and material resources to build a road from the Persian region through Kangju Kingdom to Dayuan, and I

The Tang Dynasty would also invest in the construction of a road from Anxi Protectorate, through Suiye City, Xiuxunzhou to Dayuan. In this way, it would not only strengthen the connection between our Tang Dynasty and the countries, but also make trade between our Tang Dynasty and the countries more convenient. If this road is successful, it would definitely be much faster than now. My Tang Dynasty's silk, tea, wine, porcelain, glass... At that time, it would appear in the homes of the rich men in the royal palaces of various countries..." Every time I talk about a special product of the Tang Dynasty, the eyes of these people would lit up and down, and in the end, their heads were already swinging up and down.

The Persian prince and others started with us from early morning to late night every day. Sometimes it was too late, so they had to stay in the inn near Honglu Temple to rest. We were also very distressed. After the negotiations every day, I would hand over the remaining affairs and relevant materials for tomorrow's negotiations to He Zheng and others for preparation. I continued to combine the practice of the day to instill diplomatic knowledge into Di Renjie, a group of newly assigned students, combined with their daytime practice, and almost no more than three hours of rest every day.

After the day, I had to act as the leader of the contemporary era, spitting and fighting with the envoys of Persia and other countries, racking my brains to try my best to make the Tang Dynasty take a little more favorable.

Almost every penny is fighting for each penny, and every inch of land is demarcating. The degree of hardship is no less than running dozens of back and forth on the battlefield in the moment of life and death. Although I have no time to report the progress of the negotiation to Uncle Li at once, Uncle Li can naturally find out from the mouths of others and will send people in three or five days.

The negotiation staff encouraged everyone, which kept everyone's morale alive

After nearly twenty days of negotiations, an agreement was finally reached. The Tang Empire would recruit 20,000 warriors in the name of the country to help Persia and Central Asian countries resist the invasion of the Great Food. Persia and envoys from various countries would pay each warrior a hundred coins of money, and these warriors would go on a battle to fight for Persia for five to ten years. If there is no war in five years, these warriors would be able to return to the Tang Dynasty.

In addition, at the junction of Yehuo and the Persian Empire, a piece of land of about thousands of square miles was drawn out for the Tang Dynasty to build the permanent Chicheng Fortress of the Tang Dynasty. This place not only provided a garrison for the Tang Dynasty's expeditionary army, but also became a distribution center for the future trade between the Tang Dynasty vendors and Persia and Central Asian countries and the Tang Dynasty. It also laid the first nail for the Tang Dynasty's permanent garrison in Central Asia in the future. This area will become an enclave of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, it was only when it was killed. This young master knew very well. Hehehe...

In addition, right here, there is a large copper mine. After negotiations between Persia and other countries, they agreed not to hand it over to the Tang Dynasty for mining. The mining period is unlimited. Anyway, the Central Asian countries hope that the Tang Dynasty can stay forever and ensure the peace of Central Asia. Why doesn’t the Tang Dynasty want to do this? As the saying goes, Zhou Yu beat Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten.

—

Not only that, Kangju and other small countries also revealed a message to me through other foreign affairs officials in private, hoping that the Tang Dynasty would not only care about the interests of the Central Asian powers, but also take into account some of the small countries with a red heart to the Tang Dynasty. I can naturally understand this and hint that they should not be anxious for the first time, as this is certain.

Of course, Persia and other Central Asian countries agreed to build a broad road from the Cavere Salt Desert in Persia to Dayuan. The Tang Dynasty also promised to build a broad road from Dayuan directly to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Empire, to make bilateral trade more convenient.

Of course, if Persia and other countries still need to purchase weapons and firearms from the Tang Dynasty in the future, they will have to continue to pay additional money, which is certain.

In addition to sending 20,000 elite troops, the Tang Empire will also dispatch a military observation team composed of middle and lower-level officers from the Tang Dynasty. This team will not be less than 500 people, and will provide countries with some corresponding training methods. Of course, it is indispensable to indoctrination of political and ideological ideas such as praising the Tang Dynasty as the greatest and brightest world in the world.

Persia and other countries also purchased 30,000 sabers, 20,000 steel crossbows, 200,000 grenades, 50,000 ammunition and other related Tang Dynasty weapons from the Tang Dynasty. As for the drawings of those large wooden equipment, they were naturally sold to them.

Persia and other countries will pay about 1.5 million kilograms of copper, 500 good horses, spices, gems and other items to our Tang Dynasty within this year. In addition, 50,000 kilograms of Uzi Steel must be handed over to our Tang Dynasty, and dozens of craftsmen specializing in the building of Uzi Steel weapons technology. It will take a total of four years. After four years, the compensation will be completed if Persia and Central Asian countries owe the Tang Dynasty.

Originally, I wanted to knock on the bamboo robbery of 100,000 kilograms of Uzgang every year, but the Persian prince would rather die than surrender. He almost took off his pants if he said 50,000 kilograms. He gave us 100,000 kilograms. Even if he sold them, he couldn't make up the amount, so I could only give up.

In other words, in the past four years, the Tang Dynasty was able to obtain approximately 11 million jin of resources from Persian Central Asian countries, which did not include the Tang Dynasty's acquisition of a military base in Central Asia, permanent military garrison, and a large copper mine that could be mined for one to two hundred years. It could provide at least about one million jin of copper to the Tang Dynasty every year.

In addition, the Tang Dynasty could obtain greater benefits from Persia and Central Asian countries through official trade, and its long-term interests must definitely exceed this thousand one million chunks of several times.
