"King Qi Huan, what loss do you want, I will definitely negotiate with King Chu and give King Qi Huan a barbarian answer!" Huang Xie said again.

This time, the purpose of his love, for the compensation of Qi State, he can negotiate, and his main purpose is to bring back those people surnamed Xiong who stayed in Chu State.

Qi Xiaobai was silent for a while, and then said, "I want the Chu State to stay in the customs, okay?" ”

Qi Xiaobai directly opened his mouth and asked for a pass that Qi was unwilling to have, and when the Zhao Pass was gone, this pass would be a big pass in the eastern region of Chu National Defense.

Once the state of Chu left this to the state of Qi, then for the state of Chu, there was no defense in the east.

In the future war with the Qi State, it may be severely attacked by the Qi State, and it will also make it completely powerless to fight back.

Because the Liuguan is gone, for the Qi State, the road to Yingdu, only Shucheng can resist the Qi army.

Although Shucheng is a strategic city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack and has close ties with the central part of Chu State, once it retreats to Shucheng, Chu State has no strategic depth, and once Shucheng is breached, it means that the army is directly under Yingdu.

After Huang Xie heard Qi Xiaobai's request, he was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Qi Xiaobai to open his mouth and ask for a stay for Chu State.

He refused and said: "King Qi Huan, it is difficult to accept it, although those in the Qi country are all people from the Xiong family, but there are no people from the clan, exchanging them for a stay is not an equivalent transaction!" ”

"But my son disappeared in your Chu country, shouldn't you give me an explanation?" Qi Xiaobai glared at Huang Xie angrily and said.

"Do you know that my Qi country is the overlord of the east, with millions of soldiers, although you have formed an alliance with Zhao State, but my Qi country is angry, and I will definitely come to Chu Realm!" Qi Xiaobai stepped down from the throne, with the posture of a hegemon, experienced so many things, and stayed on the throne for a long time.

Qi Xiaobai also has a kind of domineering posture, Huang Xie looked at Qi Xiaobai, took a deep breath, and sighed in his heart, he is worthy of being the king of Qi Huan who is the sole hegemon of the empire, the person who worked with King Wei Wu and King Chu Huai back then.

This domineering spirit is probably unmatched in the entire empire.

Although Qi Xiaobai is not very old, he has been in a period with King Wei Wu and King Chu Huai, and he also has a deep relationship with these two kings.

Therefore, after the Qi State dominated the empire, everyone regarded Qi Xiaobai as the successor of King Wu of Wei.

However, Huang Xie is also a famous man in Chu State, and he is also known as a son, he looked at Qi Xiaobai: "Qi State is angry, although there will be millions of soldiers, but my Chu State is not afraid, although my Chu State seems to be sunset, but the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, if the King of Qi is willing to give up the position of overlord and compete with Chu State, then my Chu State is willing to accompany Qi State to the end!" ”

Qi Xiaobai looked angry when he heard it: "You mean, your Chu State wants to start a war with my Qi State?" Your Chu State has just experienced the Four Kingdoms Invasion of Chu, and you still want to fight with my Qi State again, and you are not afraid of death? ”

"I, the State of Chu, would rather die than have dignity, if the State of Qi wants to trample on the dignity of my State of Chu, my State of Chu will accompany me to the end!" Huang Xie said with a hard face.

Of course, when he said this, he also concluded that the State of Qi did not dare to rashly attack the State of Chu, although the State of Chu experienced the four countries of Chu, the country's civil strife, and the national strength was greatly weakened, but the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, once the State of Qi is involved, even if it is victorious, it is a tragic victory.

Even if the state of Chu is destroyed, can the rest of the countries sit idly by? Your Qi State has destroyed the strongest Chu State, can those vassal states still be at ease? I'm afraid that before you have recovered from the war in the Chu State, they will immediately launch an attack on you and let you perish from your strength.

So it was also for this reason that Huang Xie was very tough, because he knew that he didn't dare, so he dared to collide with him.

Qi Xiaobai actually didn't really want to stay in the pass, he knew the importance of the stay in the pass for the Chu State, but the so-called negotiation should raise the value to the highest at the beginning, and then negotiate little by little.

If you start with the lowest price and people continue to negotiate with you, you can only reduce the value little by little, and in the end I am afraid that there will be nothing left.

Huang Xie looked at Qi Xiaobai: "If King Qi Huan is really willing to negotiate with my Chu State, my Chu State is willing to pay Qi State 10 million gold for compensation!" ”

After Qi Xiaobai heard it, he took a deep breath, 10 million gold is not low at this price, but the other party can open 10 million gold, of course, Qi Xiaobai will not agree directly, he knows that the other party's price code is also relatively low, and there is room for growth.

Qi Xiaobai took a deep breath, and then said sharply: "Ten million gold? Could it be that the life of the prince of my Qi Kingdom can be measured in gold? ”

"What does King Huan want? My Chu State can do my best to satisfy your appetite King Huan, of course, my Chu State will not cut off any piece of land! Huang Xie looked at Qi Xiaobai and said.

For the State of Qi, giving it land is to make it strong, he is different from South Korea and Wei, giving land to South Korea can make it strong, and then go to fight Wei, but give land to Qi and make it strong, he will fight you Chu.

Of course, there is still a Zhao State in the north, but you and Zhao Guo will be allies in the future, and when he fights Zhao State, he is also fighting you Chu State, because of the alliance, that is, one side is attacked, and the other side must support unconditionally.

Huang Xie himself gave the bottom line to Qi Xiaobai, asking him not to ask for land, and he would not give it to my Chu State, and Qi Xiaobai actually didn't care much about gold, because among the princes in the world, whoever is the richest is him.

He Qi controlled the maritime trade of the entire empire, and was the largest trading country in the Song state, a commercial country.

Similarly, Qi has the largest salt mine, although it is called Dongyi by the Central Plains countries, but it is richer than the Central Plains countries.

If it weren't for the fact that the fertile land of Qi was not as much as that of the Central Plains, then Qi would definitely be able to compete with Jin and Chu in the early days.

The biggest disadvantage of Qi is that there is relatively little land that can grow grain and grass, but now that overseas seeds are used, the storage capacity of grain and grass in Qi can gradually be higher and higher.

If you want to talk about the amount of grain and grass reserves, Qin has the most, because he controls Bashu, the land of Tianfu of the empire, where to produce grain and grass, but because of transportation, logistics is a big difficulty for Qin.

However, although the Qin State had a large storage of grain and grass, the production of grain and grass in the fertile land of the Central Plains was the highest, which also made their population always the highest, and they were not as worried about logistics as the Qin State.

This has created the Central Plains to become a place that all princes want, and there is a saying that whoever wins the Central Plains gets the world.
