Chapter 2155 Turn Your Face and Deny Anyone
The matter on the earth about the second batch of sending to Li Cong is already very noisy. A large number of young masters are clamoring to go there. After such a long period of reproduction, the Li family has already reached the number There are thousands of people, and now young people want to go outside to see, because they can't find their goals on earth. When the Li and Tang Dynasty was in full swing, no matter how well they did, It's not very possible, and besides, their titles are all low-level titles. If they want to continue to rise, it is impossible without some military merits, so they all need to obtain some military merits. I don’t know how many years there have been no wars, and they didn’t have any meaning in the past. It’s better to go to Li Cong’s side. It is said that they are fighting every day, but their applications are beaten back, because there are also people on the earth. I don't know who let them go there. Li Er hasn't communicated with Li Cong about this matter yet. In his opinion, he has to ask the people here to try it. After all, the people on the other side also need people from the earth. People went to help, and it's not the same thing for these young masters to stay on the earth. They should be allowed to go out and see them. As for Li Wei and Li Yan brothers, Li Er means to let Li Yan go and see Look, Li Wei is the younger brother after all, it is better to let the elder brother go to such a dangerous place, he has never been there on rty planet, it is all managed by Li Yin there, now it is time to let Li Yan go out Chuang Chuang, he hadn't told Li Cong about his idea, his son came to him and told him the reason for coming here. It's already Li Wei who has agreed, he will go over there, and I will come here.
Although Li Er was very surprised by the decision of the two children to sit down, he still didn't say anything. Anyway, he can contact his father tonight. We can see his father's opinion on this matter. It will still be the same at night That kind of feeling, the teleportation array is opened, usually two teleportation arrays are opened at such times, one is to contact Li Er and the others. The other one is to transport supplies over there. Some came from the earth, and some came from there. Anyway, the Li Tang Empire finally made a profit from such interstellar transactions, and the worthless things on the earth went there. That's where the most expensive stuff is. And the worthless things over there are also very good things on the earth. With such a transaction between the two sides, the huge benefits in the end will be in the hands of Li Cong and his father and son, so for such a trade. They all feel that once a month is a bit too little, but there is no way not to, mainly because this thing can only be turned on once a month, it is absolutely impossible to say that you can do it whenever you want, if In this case, many things will be difficult to handle, and some things will be flooded, which will be worthless. We are all people who do long-term business, and we will not just look at the immediate interests. Many things are worthless. It depends on the long-term interests. If you can't see it, it means that you are not a mature businessman.
The first batch of people who came to Li Cong's side can be said to be very useful. Not only did they raise the people of Cao's House to a higher level, but they are also very good now, especially some magicians among them. But it was very fast, mainly because each of these people did a very good job. After receiving what Li Cong gave them, these people started to practice hard one by one. In fact, it is impossible to say how they should practice. Yes, it’s just that they are working hard. They see that many people outside are like this, and they are all very powerful. They feel that if they don’t practice well, they may pull Li Cong back. It's what they think, they do it one by one,
In the end, they were all going to retreat, and it is rare to see people who retreat when they first come, but Li Cong still respects them. Besides, they are not needed in such a scene now, and now Li Cong is ready. He took the Holy Light City into his own hands. After such a long period of siege, and according to the agreement, the son-in-law is about to leave. Originally, he was the last hope of the Holy Light City. Now even this last hope is gone, so there is no need to talk about other things. These people don’t have much fun anymore. They could still get money from the son-in-law, but now they won’t tell And farewell, what are you waiting for? A group of people directly pulled out the former city lord. Without saying a word, this guy opened the city gate, and the second largest city in the Southern Empire fell. It was said that it was a small fight, what happened now? This can be extended to the central region, and the Eastern Empire was not like this back then.
In the past, there may have been many large forces who suspected that the people in the Cao's House were an upstart, because they felt that the people in the Cao's House were not so powerful, and they could do everything they are now because of luck. It may continue like that, but since the victory over the Eastern Empire, these people have regarded the people of Cao's House of Commerce as people on the same level as them, but at that time they would not pay much attention to the people of Cao's House of Trade, But now they all need to pay attention to it, because Cao's firm has done it, they defeated the second great empire again, and it was a complete defeat, which was much more thorough than the last time they attacked the Eastern Empire. It can be said that the current Cao's House of Commerce has really reached the point where it is in full swing, the City of Holy Light, it can be said that this was a symbol of the Southern Empire in history, but now he is under the hands of Cao's House of Commerce, at the feet of Li Cong , This is such a shameful thing for the Southern Empire, will the Southern Empire continue to resist? This is a question that some people in power on the mainland are thinking about. If the Southern Empire continues to resist, although the face is saved, how should they live the rest of their lives? Many economists have already said that because the business in the other three empires has not stopped, so if it is necessary to continue the war, it is okay for the Cao family firm, but it is not good for the Southern Empire. Impossible, they suffered huge casualties, and the economy of the entire empire was no longer able to survive the last blow of banknotes. If it continues like this, the economy is likely to collapse. Although there is no so-called economic crisis in this world, many officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs have said that it will not end well if the troubles continue.
Looking at the Cao's Commercial Bank, the current military power of the Cao's Commercial Bank can be said to have reached a peak. Now the various armed forces under the Cao's Commercial Bank have reached about 2.5 billion people, but they can exercise There are still too few troops, less than one-third of the troops that can be put on the battlefield, and there are still many troops on the island. It's okay if Li Cong gets them here. But none of them graduated formally. If they went to the battlefield, they might survive, and then he might become an officer in a few years. But most recruits are likely to lose their lives. Cao's House never required recruits to participate in large-scale battles as soon as they came up. All recruits are required to participate in the campaign against the rear battlefield, because for the people of Cao's House, such battles are small-scale. The possibility of accidents is relatively low. If they can survive such a battle, their future life should be very smooth, but if they can't, there is no need to talk about the future. Of course Yes, Cao's House is still expanding its strength. They already have their own land. Although governments around the world are restricting them, the ability of silver is very powerful, and the government has never been able to beat it. The market, this is also a very important fact, no local government can beat the market, this is an unchanging fact, there has never been such a thing, so no matter how they prohibit it, in the end At the time, the people from Cao's Commercial Company won, and they still got a large number of soldiers. For them, the number of recruits has never stopped.
The upper echelons of the Southern Empire released a new message, that is, they are ready to negotiate, and they are not going to continue fighting, because the fall of the Holy Light City caused their direct economic losses to exceed 50 trillion silver, and they also Speaking of what Cao's House of Commerce did in Shengguang City, after Li Cong ordered the soldiers to enter the city, he began to move it clean for me. There must be no leftovers. Of course, it was all for some big households. People are working with the government's property, and the things of the common people are absolutely not allowed to be touched. If anyone dares to reach out, the military regulations of the Cao's House are not a joke. Those members of the gendarmerie will really go over and beat you. They won’t show mercy to you, these gendarmerie members don’t seem to be able to even laugh, but the number announced by the Southern Empire makes Li Cong feel a bit big, even if you brag, you have to It’s okay to be a bit realistic. The number you mentioned does exist, but I’m sorry for a large part of the real estate. Although these things are temporarily in the hands of the Cao’s Commercial Bank, the people in the Cao’s Commercial Bank are not at all. It is possible to take this thing away. After the peace talks are completed, the city will still go back to the hands of the Southern Empire. At that time, everything will be yours. I just keep it for you temporarily. Oh, so it's in my pocket? I really don’t know what to say, but for some things in this room, such as some precious jades, this Li Cong was not polite, and took them away directly, some other commercial organizations in the Southern Empire and so on. They even protested, but Cao's House didn't even look at them, and you offended me very badly.
At the beginning, the government of the Southern Empire said that the Cao's House of Commerce was an illegal organization, and immediately sealed up all the clubs of the Cao's House of Commerce in various places. These people used to do business with the people of the Cao's House of Commerce. Yes, except for a very small part of them, they still remember that the relationship with Cao's Commercial Bank did not get worse. Many people participated in the robbery, and some of them owed some money to Cao's Commercial Bank, so they just said Don’t pay it back, what are you saying that Cao’s House of Commerce is an organization banned by the empire, for such an organization, any IOUs issued have no legal effect, since you all stood with the government of the Southern Empire back then, now Don't say anything about other reasons. I will naturally not be stupid and care about your life and death. The warehouses of several large commercial organizations have really made Li Cong a lot of money. In the past, behind these commercial organizations Either this prince, or that empress, even if I watched them drooling, I didn't have the guts to offend them. Because my business still needs to continue to develop, but it’s different now. Since I want to offend the people of Cao’s business, I just offend you to death. Of course, Li Cong is also very measured. , For example, some are national commercial families in the Southern Empire, and their relationship with the imperial court is relatively far away. For such Li Cong, he didn't offend them very much, he just robbed them a little symbolically. They also understand what it means. They also understand the olive branch extended by Cao's House of Commerce, as long as they keep some core things, they can just use carts to pull money casually, compared with those inside. This is nothing. That's it for our protection fee.
Li Cong's subordinates also made a statistics. In Shengguang City, they only got 30 trillion silver at most, which was not as much as they said, but even so, it was enough for the people of Cao's Commercial Bank to benefit a lot. This time the military expenditure must be hundreds of times. War is a good thing to make a fortune. Of course, it is limited to the winning side, just like the current Southern Empire government. At the beginning, this guy won the Cao Family Firm There are quite a few sites, that is the only place where they can get benefits, but what benefits do they have now? It can be said that there is basically no benefit. On the contrary, they still have to pay a lot at this time. The government of the Southern Empire also regrets why they did that in the first place. Although both the Northern Empire and the Western Empire are controlled, they Didn't get up to make trouble, if they make trouble first, it is estimated that this war will not start here, then I can see them being beaten, and I can still have a great advantage, now it's all right, the people around me The number of troops in China has decreased so much, but the troops of these empires have begun to move towards the border. I don’t know what these people are thinking. I have been fighting against the people of Cao’s House for so long. I don’t see you giving me some support, but now you are going to make trouble. People think this way, and countries think the same way. They all do things like this. Seeing that the Southern Empire is not working anymore, If you don't give the Southern Empire a little bit of power at this time, you will really feel sorry for the people of the Southern Empire. They took the opportunity to start creating some friction in the border areas of the Southern Empire, which made the people of the Southern Empire very uncomfortable.
The higher-ups of the Southern Empire also understood that the threat of Cao's House of Commerce was just like that. It is impossible for them to continue to attack. The possibility of their attack will be very small. For them, they can defend the area they occupy That's not bad. The Southern Empire exposed a lot of weaknesses when they attacked the Holy Light City. For the people of Cao's House, they also exposed a lot of weaknesses. As for the rebels, there is no room for consideration. They really want to go back from the Holy Light City to continue their days, but they know that is impossible. As long as Li Cong and the others enter the peace talks, these rebels are some chips. No wonder Li Cong wants to get them here Here, let them fight is secondary, the most important thing is to get the most effective part of them here. The price offered by the Southern Empire is that these rebels can be handed over to the people of the Southern Empire, but the Southern Empire will use ten prefects in exchange, and the rebels will occupy more than 25 cities, but Cao's House is not that greedy. Just 10 are enough, because the 25 famous doctors are controlled by the people of Cao's Commercial Bank, but in fact they are too far away from the territory of Cao's Commercial Bank, and it is impossible to completely control them, so it is better to send them Sell it directly, and then just ask the Southern Empire for some places that you can control. The more than 20 prefectures they acquired are all relatively poor places, and there will definitely not be any in that place. For any good development, the places I want can be combined with the occupied area of Cao's Commercial Bank, and I will definitely be able to make it very good by then.
Ersha and the others also felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere these days. The war on the front line is over, but even if it is over, they can't put away all the weapons of these people, right? The serial crossbows were all confiscated, and they said they were going to replace them with new weapons. They all knew that the serial crossbows in their hands were different from those of the Cao's company's army. Could it be because they wanted to replace them with new weapons? Got a new weapon? They still felt this way on the first day, but why was the food given so much less on the first day? They have been eating meat buns for several days with the people of Cao's House, and now they are gone. Why are the steamed buns not delicious? What's going on?
"What the hell is going on, Boss, should I go to the army at Cao's House to ask what's going on? Today, I sent us a meal and it's gone. The brothers basically have nothing on them." What kind of food? The people from Cao’s House just said that their food was raided by people from the Southern Empire. The people on their side are the same as those on our side. They don’t have any food at all. What else did they say? Let's bear with it, but I've seen their airships go back and forth several times. A few days ago, didn't they say that one visit of theirs can feed millions of people with a meal? Why, why is there no food now?" said a leader under Ersha. They were not hungry before. It's just that the people in the Cao's House of Commerce have recently been given to eat buns that don't eat meat. After eating steamed buns for two days, everyone felt that the food was not good. You must know that they couldn't even eat this in the past. They used to live on coarse grains. I didn't expect how long it took, everyone of them felt that they were nobles, and they didn't have the idea of eating coarse grains at all. The other generals also came here at this time. What happened in the past two days is really a bit abnormal Yes, it’s just that they don’t know what’s going on. They haven’t left the barracks for two days. It is said that at the beginning, they were afraid that they would go out to rob and imprison them, but now it’s half past. It's been a month, and I heard that the people of Cao's House of Commerce are about to end their peace talks with the people of the Southern Empire, and there shouldn't be such a thing now, so why don't they let them go out? What about the place we promised to give them? Why not let them accept it.
"I think they don't regard us as their own at all, boss, that is, you feel that they regard us as their own, but in fact they don't think much of us at all. These people all regard us as their own." It's their cannon fodder. We are actually the same as Boss Wu and those people. It's just that we are more useful than those people. Now we have all stayed here for such a long time. I guess Cao People from a commercial firm have started negotiating with people from the Southern Empire. Now they have nothing to do with us, and we are not in the same alliance relationship at the beginning. They probably forgot about us. We came with 800,000 yuan My brothers are all the elites of the rebel army. Our combat power is not as good as theirs, but we all fought with our own lives. What happened in the end? The city was shot down, and we didn’t go up Meaning, they have taken away all the good things in the city, that’s all, they usually give us a lot of things, and we don’t give them guns anymore, but now even the food we eat Everything is gone, so what is this shit about?" Another guy also said, Ersha's face became ugly after hearing what he said, and what these people are actually most afraid of is that others don't respect them. Silly, their team has always been the best in the rebel army, and they always consider Cao's house first in everything they do. Li Cong originally wanted to keep them, but many of them do things in the same way as Li Cong. After understanding a little bit, if these people stay, they will be in a lot of trouble in the future. The lack of discipline is one of the main reasons why Li Cong wants to hand them over to the Southern Empire.
These people don't have any regulations when they do things. When Li Cong's people investigated, they found that they did things too casually. Except for the thousands of people who were foolish, the rest of them couldn't be regarded as members of the army. People used to be ordinary people, but after they became the bosses of the rebel army, they felt that they were different from before. Everyone thought they were people with status, and when they did things one by one They all have face, and that has to be ostentatious, and they don't know what thrift is at all, even when they provided assistance to the Cao's Commercial Bank, they all started to fill their pockets. I know a lot, but at that time they were not my direct subordinates, and I didn't have the need to take care of so many things. After the war, if I can use them, I can let them continue to exist. But the situation is different now. People from both the Northern Empire and the Western Empire want to get a piece of meat from the Southern Empire. They are already stationed in the border area. Li Cong cannot allow such a thing. He can let himself eat a piece of meat from the Southern Empire, but he must not let others drink soup, because if they drink it , their strength will expand a lot. Li Cong wants to get meat from them to eat little by little, so it is absolutely impossible to make them too strong. It is okay for them to fight with him. But you can see it. The two empires assembled so many armies. It's not about eating a little and it's over. The battle plans of the two empires have even been in Li Cong's hands. Their hands are very dark, and they have to be treated the same as Cao's House.
The contract of Cao's House states that 7% of the territory of the Southern Empire will be acquired. Don't underestimate the seven percent. This is 150 provinces. It can be counted as 3,000 counties and cities. Such a number can definitely be said to have hurt the Southern Empire, but after these things came out. Because the Southern Empire was much stronger than the Western Empire and the Northern Empire in the past, so it can still be on the same starting line with them. Such an empire is also in the interests of Cao's firm now, and after the peace talks, some with Cao Those who have a good relationship with a business firm will become the top executives of the Southern Empire, but if the Western Empire and the Northern Empire both get the 7% from the Southern Empire, it is estimated that the Southern Empire will have no possibility of revival. , it may be in a slump, and when everyone sees this possibility, the princes of all parties in the Southern Empire will definitely not be so idle, and they will definitely do their own things. At that time, it will be the Southern Empire At the beginning of the disaster, it was not good for Cao's House at that time. A stable environment is a good place for business development. If there is a war, it can only be done within a certain period of time. This war In the future, it will take at least five years for the Southern Empire to recover. To maintain the balance of the entire continent, it must do so. Some people will not let these insurgents continue to survive, in order to allow some troops from the south of the Southern Empire to quickly go to the north and west. As long as the main force of the Southern Empire passes by, the people of these two empires will also There is no other idea, they will do it while taking advantage of the fire, and it is impossible to fight with real swords and guns.
Now the cooperation between Cao's House of Commerce and the Southern Empire has basically been completed. It is impossible for the Southern Empire to violate the meaning of the Cao's House of Commerce. They have no possibility now. The Supreme Emperor of the Southern Empire has appeared. He I didn't expect that it would become like this now. His own strength is very powerful, but Li Cong also invited Xuan Tianzi of Xuanyunzong. He is not the opponent of Xuan Tianzi. It is not the opponent who fights alone. It is even more difficult to fight against opponents. This kind of thing makes the people of the Southern Empire really helpless. If the son-in-law can clearly stand on the side of the Southern Empire at this time, it is impossible for them to suffer such a crushing defeat in the negotiation , but it's a pity that the son-in-law is neutral and doesn't care about the affairs of both parties. Some people even said that this guy is a bit biased towards the Cao's house, even if he does that, what can you do to him? Well, there is no way at all. My son-in-law's current ability is that the Supreme Emperor of the Southern Empire will give him three points. If this guy becomes a tenth-level magician, I have conflicts with him, and that is my doomsday Don't look at yourself as the Supreme Emperor of the Southern Empire. There are too many things that a tenth-level magician can mobilize. It has been too long since there has been a tenth-level magician in this world. It is precisely because this thing is relatively rare. That's why such a thing happened, and it was impossible for the Southern Empire to pay the compensation for Cao's House, so they simply paid it back with land, and finally gave Cao 10% of the entire empire's territory. The company is regarded as the overall compensation, and what is attached is to restore the location of the Cao's company before, and to guarantee the banknotes of the Cao's company.
These are all big things. Ersha doesn't know much about these things. He doesn't want to know those things now. What he wants to know most is to find out what the people in Cao's House mean. We After all, they all belong to the same family. Why have the troops of the surrounding Cao's firm changed their defenses frequently in the past few days, and shouldn't their defense direction be the Southern Emperor Army outside? How could the gun be turned on their heads? Because of this reason, some soldiers in their army already felt restless. Although they still have weapons, they are all armed with knives, guns and sticks. If they didn't use chain crossbows, they wouldn't feel how backward the things in their hands are, but they have all used the Cao's House for a long time. It’s a good thing, and basically they don’t use these things now, and they all know that such things are basically useless on the battlefield, and they all hope to get their own serial crossbow , because when that thing is in my hands, I can have a very good sense of security in my heart. But now that feeling is gone. What does this mean? It can only mean that the people in Cao's House no longer believe in themselves, but even if this is the case, they shouldn't have treated us like this, and just told us to get out. Let us fend for ourselves. There is no need to surround us with the army. Now Ersha is going to go out to see what's going on, he can't wait for the people from Cao's House to give him an explanation, because in his opinion, it is impossible for those people to give him an explanation. These people must be doing something that they don't know about.
Ersha went out of his camp and took a dozen of his brothers with him. In order not to let the people in Cao's House suspect him, he didn't bring other people out either. They hadn't walked out of them for several days. Fifty meters away from them are some obstacles set up by the Cao family firm. These things used to face the city, but now such things are useless because the city wall All the banners above are the flags of Cao's House of Commerce, and there is no meaning of the Southern Empire at all. Although this city is still part of the Southern Empire, Cao's House of Commerce has already obtained a lease here, which is a southern city. This will also be the territory of the Cao family firm. Ersha also hopes that his own people can have such a city. If such a city is used as his base, it is possible to occupy the entire Southern Empire in the future. Things are much better than what I have now, it's just that I just think about it in my own mind, other things are absolutely impossible, and there will never be such a thing, Just when Ersha and the others walked out of their camp, there was a voice from the opposite barracks, something happened, something like gathering, and then they heard that special whistle sound, That's why the army of Cao's House of Merchant only appeared in an emergency. What's going on? When Ersha and the others came out, it became such a big deal, none of them knew what was going on, they were all looking at everything in the distance, what was going on, could it be that now they all became The enemy of Cao's House? But this is a bit unreasonable.
"My lord, Guo Feng, Commander of the 130th Division, you have now entered the military restricted zone, please return to your own area immediately, this is the first warning, if you enter within 30 meters, we will start attacking immediately, please don't let We are in a difficult situation, and we are also following orders, please cooperate with us." A man dressed in general Cao's business uniform on a 30-meter-high tower in the distance said, no one else knows what such a person does, but But Ersha knows that this person has at least 70,000 to 80,000 troops under his command. He already said just now that he is the commander of the 130th Division of the Cao's House of Commerce, and the others don't know about the Cao's House of Commerce Some preparations, but Ersha knew it very clearly. From the very beginning, he really wanted to become a member of the Cao's business army, not what he is now. What kind of marshal? It just has no effect at all, what he hopes is that he can truly be like this person in front of him, what's wrong with a division commander, the 80,000 men under him are more powerful than the hundreds of thousands of troops under him Many, many people are belittling the fighting power of the Cao's House, but he himself is very clear that the fighting power of the Cao's House is definitely the best in the entire continent. It can be said that they are the Longevity Legion of this era. There may still be a lot of people who don't believe it, but now they all believe it. People can travel such a long distance to come to the Holy Light City. Occasionally, they can still win, although later At the time, many of them were like this because of the son-in-law, but now it's completely different, and most of them rely on their own strength to win.
"What is a military restricted area? Aren't we allies? Why do we do things like this now? You can see clearly that we are not the army of the Southern Empire. You have said before that we are all yours." Friends, is this how you treat your friends now?" Ersha said angrily, he still didn't stop his steps, when he really reached the place where the yellow line was, a crossbow arrow came out, and he I am already a seventh-level fighter, so it is impossible for such a thing to hurt him. Besides being a level 7 fighter, I also have level 7 monsters under me. These people are not something I can beat by myself. If I really run into them, I will only be torn apart by those Tirachi wolves. Speaking of the Tirachi wolf of Cao's House, it is also evil. In the past, it was impossible to meet a seventh-level wolf in the Warcraft Mountains for a long time. Ordinarily, the seventh-level Tirachi wolf can be said to belong to the wolf king. , but now this kind of situation is very common in Cao's house, and even occasionally there will be eighth grades. This kind of situation is beyond the understanding of most people, but no one knows what they really want, and they don't want to Those who know this, because people who know too much may be killed.
"This is the first warning. After the second warning, we will directly target your people. The higher-ups will give you an answer about your matters, but it will definitely not be me who will give you an answer. Now, please be a teacher. Go back, otherwise we will take our measures." The teacher on the opposite side didn't answer their questions at all, and now he can only talk about this, because the higher-ups haven't decided how to deal with them, so we just Maybe they got them up like this, and I don't know what they will look like in the future. (To be continued..)
