The strongest son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty

"Lord Du, even so, the price will not be so expensive! Once we in Nanzhao purchased from Qianqian Dynasty,

The price is only a quarter of the price quoted by adults.Why is there such a big disparity? It's not because your country raised prices temporarily! "

Gao Jie said.

Ha ha!

"Master Gao, our two countries only establish diplomatic relations, not alliances or vassal relations.

What about price enforcement in the country?In the past, if you purchased goods from the previous dynasty, then you were a vassal state of the Sui Dynasty and could enjoy good treatment. "

Doo Ho said.

During the Yang Guang period of the previous dynasty, the military power was extremely powerful.

Whoever dares not to submit to the surrounding small countries will send troops to conquer immediately.

Moreover.

Surrender to the Central Plains Dynasty, and there will be benefits during the pilgrimage, who would not, unless an idiot.

During Yang Guang's period, that was the real coming of all nations.

After only two years of doing it, Yang Guang found that it was too expensive, so he didn't allow those small countries and dependent countries to come to Luoyang for pilgrimage.

"Lord Du, our Nanzhao Kingdom is a small country, and it is really very poor. The people can't even fill their stomachs.

If the country is not dangerous, we have money to buy weapons and equipment.Can you give us a little cheaper, we will remember the goodness of your lord. "

Gao Jie said.

Pull it down!

I don't need you to remember me.

Talking about poverty in front of this official is completely fooling people, okay?

How could Nanzhao be poor?

"Lord Gao, Nanzhao Kingdom is rich in resources, and the four seasons are like spring. Everything can be produced, so how can it be poor?

Nanzhao Kingdom is known as the plant kingdom, animal kingdom, and mineral kingdom. It is much richer than the Central Plains, and it is a good place that people yearn for. "

Du He smiled.

Damn!

Master Du really knows Nanzhao!

"Lord Du, what you said is true, but the problem is that the transportation in Nanzhao Kingdom is underdeveloped, and many places are inaccessible.

Even if there are good things, they cannot be mined.You can see it, but you can't touch it.How is it different from nothing? "

Gao Jie said.

Ha ha!

"The empire can help build the roads of Nanzhao Kingdom, as long as you Nanzhao Kingdom pays for it. No matter how difficult the road is, the empire can repair it."

Doo Ho said.

Damn!

Once the road from Sichuan to Nanzhao is completed, the imperial army can attack at any time.

Once the road is connected, the supply problem is completely solved.

At that time, force Nanzhao to surrender, merge into the imperial family, and make it a state of the empire.

The strongest son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 364

Gao Jie and Du He bargained for a long time, but Du He refused to give up a single step, refused to bargain with the other party, and insisted on the price.

Know that the other party is eager to buy weapons and equipment.

Who will lower the price.

In desperation, Gao Jie and the others could only grit their teeth and respond.

The Nanzhao Kingdom agreed to the conditions, and Du He immediately asked someone to draft a contract.

A "Establishment of Diplomatic Relations between the Tang Empire and the Nanzhao Kingdom" and a "Memorandum on the Purchase of Weapons and Equipment by the Nanzhao Kingdom".

Signed by both parties.

But what?

The empire needs Li Er's signature and a jade seal.

Du He entered the palace with two contracts, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites were responsible for counting the silver that Nanzhao Kingdom needed to pay for purchasing equipment.

"Meet General Lee!"

Doo Ho said.

"Du He, congratulations! On the day of your wedding, this general is on duty, don't mind."

Li Jun said enviously.

Ha ha!

"General Li, thank you!"

Doo Ho said.

"Go! Your Majesty is in the study."

Li Jun said enviously.

Du He went towards the imperial study.

"I have seen Your Majesty, my lords."

Du He saluted respectfully.

"Du He, didn't you talk to the envoy of Nanzhao Kingdom? Why did you come in?"

Li Erdao.

"Your Majesty, I have negotiated with the Nanzhao Kingdom. Here is a contract and an attachment, which need to be signed by Your Majesty."

Doo Ho said.

Hand over the contract and attachments to Li Second Hand.

Li Er took it and checked it immediately.

"Du He, second-hand goods are still selling so expensively. Are the people of Nanzhao stupid to charge such a high price?"

Li Erdao.

Du He is depressed!

What words?

The people of Nanzhao Kingdom will be idiots, it's up to me to fight for it.

How could it be possible to be a stupid person to be an envoy of the empire.

"Your Majesty, it was the humble officials who fought for it, not the Nanzhao people. Since the Nanzhao Kingdom is in a hurry to buy it, why didn't they kill it?"

Doo Ho said.

Li Er handed the contract and attachments to several important ministers.

Several important officials were speechless after watching it.

Ruthless!

Severely slaughtered the Nanzhao country.

babble!

"Your Majesty, it seems that there is a trap in this contract!"

Fang Xuanling said.

Du He sighed incomparably.

He is really a bright face of a generation, with sharp eyes, and he can see problems at a glance, which makes Du He admire.

"Your Majesty, it is true. This contract is beneficial to the empire. The treaty talks about the rights of the empire.

Obligations speak less.It seems to be a treaty of equality, but after careful analysis, it is not the case. "

The eldest grandson said nothing.

Hahaha!

Li Er laughed wildly.

I am so happy!

Regarding Du He's ability, Li Er would not doubt it, and would handle the matter well.

"Okay! Since the Aiqing think there is no problem, I will sign and cover the jade seal."

Li Erdao.

Ha ha!

"Your Majesty, by disposing of those obsolete weapons and equipment this time, military expenditures have been greatly eased, and the Tubo issue can be resolved."

Hou Jun gathers the road.

Du He was slightly taken aback!

Is there something wrong with Tubo again?

Songtsen Gampo is not still imprisoned in the prison, even if a new king is recommended, it will not pose a threat to the empire.

In the entire Tubo Kingdom, only Songtsan Gampo is a generation of heroes who will cause trouble to the empire, and the others are not rivals

"Du He, listen too. This involves military matters. You have good military knowledge and have the right to speak."

Li Erdao.

"According to the order!"

"Your Majesty, I still feel that the empire sent [-] troops, which is too much.

It is just a small Tubo, and a hundred thousand troops/armies are dispatched, which will cost a lot of money, which is a bit outweighed by the gains. "

Fang Xuanling said.

"Your Majesty, I also feel that it is too much. Although the empire received some ill-gotten gains when the salt merchants and salt lords were rectified.

However, they couldn't bear the wanton extravagance of the military.

To pacify the three countries on the peninsula, the empire only sent [-] troops, and it would send [-] troops to a small Tubo.

The Empire really can't afford it. "

The eldest grandson said nothing.

As the Minister of the Imperial Household Department, he is in charge of money.

When talking about spending money, Changsun Wuji immediately complained.

"Du He, tell me how many soldiers and horses the imperial army needs when going to fight against Tubo? The military said that Tubo is on a plateau, so more soldiers and horses should be dispatched."

Li Erdao.

Li Jing of the military pretended to be sick and recuperated, while Hou Junji presided over the daily work.

After all, Li Er has good trust in Hou Junji, and he is the direct descendant of the true direct descendants.

In recent years, Hou Junji has fought well.

Hou Junji's martial arts are superb, he has reached the peak of the bright energy stage, and may cross the bright energy stage and enter the dark energy stage at any time.

"Your Majesty, what happened to Tubo? The Tubo cavalry invaded, or what happened, I don't know at all.

As far as Weichen knows, that Songtsen Gampo is still in custody.At this time, the Tubo Kingdom really didn't have any good generals. "
