Chapter 1103 Priceless
"Your Majesty, calm down!" The envoy of the Tianfeng Kingdom put his posture extremely low, "Our generals of the Tianfeng Kingdom were also bewitched by the empress of Xiliang about the attack on your country's Lord Gao Yi, and the attack on Pingyang City. It was this general who claimed it on his own, and my lord of the Tianfeng Kingdom was furious when he heard this, and has already beheaded that general, and asked the ministers to bring it in person!"
As he spoke, the envoy of Tianfeng Kingdom looked behind him, and the guard behind him stepped forward holding a wooden box and opened the box... Inside was the head of the general of Tianfeng Kingdom.
"Before the foreign minister came, His Majesty explained that for the injury of Gao Yijun...and the damage to your soldiers, the compensation that should be given to Dazhou, Tianfeng Kingdom will definitely not be less! Please also look at my Tianfeng Kingdom. With such sincerity, the monarch calmed down his anger and considered leasing land and cities to our Tianfeng Kingdom, our Tianfeng Kingdom is willing to do business with Dazhou, and the two countries are mutually beneficial and friendly."
The envoy of Tianfeng Kingdom raised his head and saw Bai Qingyan's smiling face, thinking that Bai Qingyan was very satisfied with the compensation, and then said: "Of course, if Pingyang City is also in the leased city, the repair of Pingyang City will also be done. We, Tianfeng Nation, will bear it all!"
Bai Qingyan held the teacup and looked at the envoy of Tianfeng Kingdom who wanted to make progress, and let out a low laugh.
In the cold wind, Bai Qingyan laughed suddenly, which really made the envoys of Tianfeng Kingdom tense up.
She put the tea cup in her hand on the small table of broad-leaved rosewood, stood up and took the hand stove from Chun Zhi, took two steps forward, and fixedly looked at the envoy of Tianfeng Kingdom: "The wound of Lord Gao Yi of the Great Zhou Dynasty You can use money to pay for the life of my Bai family's guards... What will you pay for the Tianfeng Kingdom? What will your Tianfeng Kingdom pay for the sharp soldier who died in the battle last night in Dazhou? With the head of a mere general of your Tianfeng Kingdom? With money? Let me tell you... the lives of our Great Zhou soldiers are priceless!"
The envoy of Tianfeng Kingdom lowered his head, not knowing what to do, he lost the relaxed attitude just now, and hurriedly said: "If Your Majesty is not satisfied, we can discuss it again!"
"Discuss?! Okay..." Bai Qing said in a cold voice, "Then send the heads of all the elephant soldiers of your Tianfeng Kingdom first, and we will discuss it later!"
The envoys of Tianfeng Kingdom understood that there was no room for discussion.
"So? Are you reluctant to part with the lives of the Tianfeng Kingdom's elephant army when it's your turn?" Bai Qingyan's expression was cold, "Tianfeng Kingdom didn't plan to pay the price, but wanted to lightly expose this matter, and even came to talk about lease with me shamelessly. Chengchi, go back and tell you that the ruler of Tianfeng Kingdom, Sal Khan, since he dared to attack Da Zhou, he must be able to bear Da Zhou's anger."
The envoy of Tianfeng Kingdom understood this sentence, but he didn't understand it very well, so he looked up at Bai Qingyan.
"Wei Zhong, see off the guests..." Bai Qingyan finished coldly, then walked out along the corridor.
The envoy of Tianfeng Kingdom raised his head and glanced at Bai Qingyan. He couldn't hold back his face. Before Wei Zhong asked, he turned around and walked out. He vaguely heard the meaning of war from Bai Qingyan's words. He must hurry up. Go back and tell your majesty to prepare.
In the house, Li Zhijie, who fell off the bed and was helped up by his servants, and resettled on the bed, felt relieved. After all...Bai Qingyan still did not hand him over to Tianfeng Kingdom.
But he couldn't help but worry in his heart, every action of Bai Qingyan was by no means meaningless, she left her own life... Do you have any other plans?
Shen Jingzhong, Shen Tianzhi, and Xiao Ruohai, who had been listening outside the courtyard for a long time, saw Bai Qingyan coming out of the courtyard first and hurriedly saluted, followed Bai Qingyan, and talked about the report sent today that required Bai Qingyan's decision.
Shen Tianzhi turned his head and glanced at the envoys of the Tianfeng Kingdom. Just as he followed Bai Qingyan's footsteps, he heard Shen Jingzhong say to Bai Qingyan: "Your Majesty, will the Tianfeng Kingdom really go to war with our Great Zhou? Their Tianfeng Kingdom is far away in the snow mountain On the other side, even with Xiliang as the backstop, Xiliang doesn’t have much grain, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to collect grain at high prices in Da Zhou and Yan Kingdom, maybe... can’t fight it?”
"It is precisely because there is no food that the Tianfeng Kingdom is more capable of fighting... if a city is defeated, there will be food! We can know from the history of the Tianfeng Kingdom that the people of the Tianfeng Kingdom believe in... fighting to support war, Which of the Eagle Kingdom and the Violent Snake Kingdom that used to be adjacent to Tianfeng Kingdom is not a powerful country?"
Bai Qingyan stood still, and turned to look at Shen Jingzhong: "Shen Sikong... We must not take chances! A wise man sees far ahead of time, and a wise man avoids danger in the invisible. We cannot take the lives of the people of Da Zhou. Going to bet on Tianfeng Kingdom is really just for peace! After all, once winter is over...we will no longer be able to take the initiative!"
Bai Qingyan was born in a general's family, and he is very sensitive to war, and he knows why there are wars in this world, but it is because of two points... one is to rob land, and the other is to rob population.
Today, the land of Tianfeng Kingdom is gradually reduced and swallowed up by the desert, which is what Tianfeng Kingdom urgently needs.
The population of Tianfeng Kingdom is small, and there are precedents of enslaving the people of other countries. Now every family in Tianfeng Kingdom has slaves... Slaves are the productivity of Tianfeng Kingdom!
So, why did the elephant army of Tianfeng Kingdom cross the snow mountain and come to this land? It's just... winning the land of Dazhou and Yan, and enslaving the people of Dazhou and Yan!
Shen Sikong took a step back and bowed to Bai Qing: "Your Majesty's words are true, it's because I'm getting old."
"Shen Sikong also feels sorry for the generals of the Great Zhou, I understand! So... please Shen Sikong and Mr. Wei, please set off immediately and rush back to the capital city to be responsible for the dispatch of food and grass." Bai Qingyan's eyes fell on Shen Tianzhi, "Just remember Stay a little longer, the soldiers fighting ahead must not go hungry!"
"There is one more thing that I have to ask His Majesty for instructions before leaving!" Shen Tianzhi looked at Bai Qingyan and said, "As for the purchase of grain from Dazhou and Yan by Tianfeng Kingdom and Xiliang at a high price, I think that...maybe we need to pay more Selling it to the Tianfeng Kingdom at an extremely high price, so that... the Tianfeng Kingdom, which has no food, will not be forced to jump over the wall and attack our weakly defended city in Dazhou, causing the people in the frontier to suffer."
Bai Qingyan nodded: "You are responsible for this matter."
"Yes!" Shen Tianzhi saluted.
"At this point, my Great Zhou will mobilize the power of the whole country to send troops to attack Tianfeng Kingdom. Shen Sikong and Shen Shangshu will bring the words back to the court. The whole country must work together to defeat powerful enemies and protect the people in our Great Zhou territory!"
"The old minister takes orders!"
"The humble minister takes orders!"
"My lords, go get ready first!" Bai Qingyan nodded along with Shen Sikong and Shen Tianzhi.
After the two left, Bai Qingyan asked Xiao Ruohai who had been following behind him, "Did you find it?"
Xiao Ruohai took out the drawn map from his clothes, and handed it to Bai Qing with both hands: "As the eldest girl expected, the Fire Cloud Army came to Anshan not far from Pingyang City and Pingdu City."
