The Best Fake Eunuch
Chapter 488 Helping People to the End
In order to gain the support of Janu Mountain, Xiao Chen had to spend a lot of time talking with him, after all, his opinions still carry quite a lot of weight with King Myanmar.
Not only understand it with reason, but also move it with emotion, let him know that this matter is both public and private, and it is very beneficial to you, and there is absolutely no harm.
The disadvantage is nothing more than the loss of a few warships, but the benefits in the future will be great, so you must take a long-term view, and you can't just stare at the little gains and losses in front of you!
Regardless of whether he can understand Mount Canu, Xiao Chen only stayed in his barracks for a day, and then continued to head south to Linyang City.
Ganu Mountain gave Lu Yinling arrows, and also sent a 200-man fine cavalry escort as a guard. No matter how you say it, it is quite interesting.
When the king of Burma learned that Xiao Chen was coming, he summoned him immediately.
Loyalty Hou Ganluo and General Doma are old acquaintances. Back then, they fought side by side and killed the enemy together. They all admired Xiao Chen very much. When they met again, they were very affectionate.
This time Shangguan Qiji is really convinced, this fucking kid Xiao Chen is really pissy!
It's nothing more than running rampant in the Great Zhou Palace, but in the palace of the Burmese country, he is also flat. At first, he thought that he had a flamboyant personality and was quite charming, but only now did he realize that Xiao Chen is actually a very low-key person...
King Myanmar has always been grateful to Xiao Chen, and was very happy to see him, but he was a little hesitant about his proposal to borrow warships to fight against the Ross people.
"Xiao Chen, the size of our fleet is not small, but most of them are river ships. There are only more than 300 warships that can fight at sea, and they are all medium-sized warships. They are mainly used for offshore operations. Compared with your Large warships are incomparable, and they have to travel across the ocean to fight against the mighty Rus..." King Myanmar expressed his embarrassment.
Xiao Chen was surprised and delighted when he heard the words, I rely on you to have more than 300 ocean warships!
This is about the same size as our Dazhou navy. I came here mainly to find pirate ships to help me fight. I just borrowed a few warships from you as a way to take advantage of it. I didn’t want to bring an elephant with me. !
In fact, because the southern border of Myanmar is adjacent to the sea and the domestic rivers are vertical and horizontal, the shipbuilding industry has been very developed since ancient times.
Moreover, in order to compete for the ownership of this important sea area in the Bay of Bengal, it has been fighting many Western maritime powers over the years. The navy is actually quite powerful.
However, under the constraints of various conditions, they did not develop large-scale ocean-going warships. The navy was mainly composed of medium-sized ships, and the scope of activities was mainly within the Bay of Bengal.
They do not have the ambition of Westerners to conquer the entire ocean, and the development of the naval fleet is mainly for self-defense.
"My lord, no matter how you say it, you see that I have come here. You have to give me face anyway. If you don't give me face, you have to give Princess Ruyun face. If you don't give her face, you have to give it to our Emperor Da Zhou." Is it because of your face?" Xiao Chen forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, and began to mention people.
"Oh, to be honest, if you, Xiao Chen, hadn't come in person, I wouldn't have borrowed a single boat, and don't mention Emperor Da Zhou and Yun'er to me, I only care about your face!" King Myanmar said helplessly. He shook his head again and again.
"Then I'm also curious, I don't know how much face I have?" Xiao Chen said with a smile, "I think it's worth a hundred or so warships, right?"
The key to negotiation is that the lion opens its mouth wide, it doesn't matter how big it is, this is called asking for a price, and you pay back the money on the spot.
"You don't want to joke with this king, the face of your Great Zhou emperor is not worth a hundred battleships!" King Myanmar laughed.
"I didn't see that Master Xiao, you still like to joke so much." Doma covered his mouth and smiled, "You borrowed all our warships, so what should we do if there are foreign invaders?"
"Lord Xiao, this is a major military matter, don't be joking." Old General Qian Luo frowned.
"I'm not joking." Xiao Chen sighed, "This battle is a matter of life and death for me personally. If I win, I will live. If I lose, I will die. Do you think I will use my life and death to make a joke? If not It's so important, how could I not go thousands of miles away and come here personally to ask the prince for help?"
It means don't forget that I came here thousands of miles away to save your life, my lord!
In order to save you, our brother really risked his life.
Remember?
In this hall of yours, a bloody battle between us and Prince Seba...
Now is the time for you, King Myanmar, to return my great favor, so don't say how many battleships my face is worth, it depends on how many battleships you think your old life is worth in exchange for, King Myanmar?
"Xiao Chen, Yun'er also mentioned your difficulties in the letter, and this king also knows about it, but a hundred warships is impossible..." King Myanmar frowned, really embarrassed.
"That's so-so, just fifty ships." Xiao Chen opened his mouth twice, although he knew that the king of Burma would definitely not borrow this number of warships, but he made a big concession.
This is the art of negotiation. You must not let the king of Myanmar know that his original bottom line is actually just to borrow four or five warships and be satisfied...
"If it's not because I'm stingy, fifty ships won't do. How about it, I'll lend you twenty warships..." King Myanmar thought for a while, and finally made a decision.
"Twenty ships?" Xiao Chen forced himself to suppress the joy in his heart, and finally made an expression of extreme disappointment.
Because I want to laugh in my heart, but my face is rigid, my muscles are twisted and deformed, and I look quite sad and angry.
Both Gan Luo and Doma felt quite guilty, bowing their heads and couldn't bear to see.
"Xiao Chen, don't worry, listen to me, I will give you our best twenty warships, you can choose by yourself, and I will equip you with three hundred bravest sailors on each warship." Soldiers, in addition, I can give you ten cargo ships for logistical supplies, and I will also arrange the food and grass." King Myanmar said.
"There is another section. These twenty warships of mine are not lent to you, but given to you. However, after the war is over, regardless of success or failure, regardless of casualties, you have to send my people back..." Myanmar Wang added.
"Oh, I knew that King Burma is a king who cares about the overall situation and values love and righteousness!" Xiao Chen was overjoyed when he heard this, and stopped pretending. Xu Tu will report later!"
"That must be reported." King Myanmar said with a smile, "Although I said it was a gift to you, but of course it can't be a free gift. Your Da Zhou's porcelain and silk jewelry..."
"My lord, you know who I am Xiao Chen. Our friendship doesn't come and go like this. It will last for a lifetime. I won't promise you anything today, just wait and see!" Xiao Chen said.
"Hehe, it's good that you know it in your heart. There is an old saying in China that you can help people to the end and send Buddha to heaven. Then I will give you another general who is proficient in water warfare."
The king of Burma said and called a guard, "Go and find Wu Hanming, the navy general who will report to Linyang!"
