"What...... Gold and silver and all pigs, horses, cattle and sheep halved? Huang Taiji thought that this was selling vegetables in the vegetable market, and he was bargaining with me? Looking at Ning Wan, who asked to see me again, Yang Feng was angry and funny in his heart, "You go back and tell Huang Taiji that the things that Ben Hou wants must not be less, otherwise Ben Hou will go to Shengjing City to get it himself, and then it will not be as easy to talk as it is now." ”

Yang Feng was not the only one who met me today, Lu Xiangsheng, Zhao Shujiao, Geng Bingyi and a number of other generals were also present, after hearing Yang Feng say this, Zhao Shujiao also said: "That is, Huang Taiji is also stingy, a dignified Qing country can't even take out such a little silver, cattle, sheep and horses, who can coax?" As far as this official knows, the gold and silver treasures that you have plundered from my Ming Dynasty over the years are countless, but now you are reluctant to take out even such a little thing, which is too stingy, in this case, let us see the high and low on the battlefield. ”

Ning Wan glanced at the generals in the tent, and finally looked at Zhao Shujiao's body, and then said: "This should be General Zhao Shujiao of Pingliao, Ning someone dares to ask General Zhao and you, if the iron cavalry of the Qing Dynasty hits the capital of the Ming Dynasty at this moment, my emperor asks His Majesty of your country to take out one million taels of silver and one hundred thousand taels of gold within one day, can your country take it out immediately?" ”

"This ......"

Everyone glanced at each other, and many people frowned, "The embarrassment of the Ming Dynasty's finances is something that everyone knows, if the imperial court immediately comes up with 100,000 taels of gold and 1 million taels of silver within a day or two, it seems that it is really difficult." ”

Ning Wan saw the expressions on everyone's faces, and knew that his words had had an effect, so he hurriedly continued: "Your Majesty My Emperor said, 50,000 taels of gold and 500,000 taels of silver are already the limit that the Qing Dynasty can take out, if your army agrees, we can hand over these things to you tomorrow, if your army insists on refusing, then we will only have to meet each other, and my generals of the Qing Dynasty will swear to fight to the death with your army!" ”

When Yang Feng finished speaking, his eyes also swept over the eyes of the generals, and he found that in addition to Geng Bingyi, Yang Daniu, Chu Maoguang and other Jiangning army generals with disapproving expressions on their faces, people such as Lu Xiangsheng and Zhao Shujiao showed a look of intention in their eyes.

Of course he knew what these people were afraid of, and to be honest, he had the same scruples in his heart as these people. Don't look at the tens of thousands of troops of the Jiangning Army, the Beijing Camp and Zhao Shujiao, who have surrounded Shengjing, but don't forget, there are still more than 100,000 troops and hundreds of thousands of Manchu people who have the same hatred in Shengjing, if he really wants to take Shengjing, Yang Feng can't imagine how many casualties he will have to pay.

Of course, some people may say that there are still poison gas bombs, and use poison gas bombs to open the way to ensure that there are no problems. But the problem is that after the battle the day before yesterday, most of the 10,000 poison gas bombs that Yang Feng got from modern society have been consumed, and the remaining less than 4,000 poison gas bombs are a drop in the bucket to cover the huge Shengjing.

What's more, don't look at Yang Feng daring to threaten Ning Wan, I said that I also want to let the Manchurian people in Shengjing City taste the taste of poison gas, but if he really wants him to do it, he really can't do this, after all, releasing poison gas on the army and releasing poison gas against defenseless women and children This is a completely different concept, which is the same reason that no matter which army dares to massacre civilians in later generations, it will definitely be condemned by the whole world. Only then did Yang Feng not question the reason for leading the troops to attack the city, Jiang Ningjun was the foundation he had finally accumulated, and he was reluctant to waste it here.

"Okay, don't cry poor here." Yang Feng planned to continue to cry for the poor, and said in an unquestionable tone: "One hundred thousand taels of gold and one million taels of silver are not a penny, if you are not willing to give out these silvers, then we will meet each other." Ben Hou can also tell you clearly, maybe Ben Hou does not have the ability to capture Shengjing City, but he definitely has the ability to make Shengjing restless, and there is absolutely no problem for the people in the city to die seventy or eighty thousand, believe it or not? ”

Ning Wan I was so angry that I almost vomited blood, how could this Yang Feng be so shameless, he actually used the people in the city to blackmail them, "Jiang Ninghou, how innocent are the people of the Qing Dynasty, isn't it too shameless for you to use the people to blackmail my emperor?" ”

Looking at Ning Wanme, who looked indignant, Yang Feng sneered, "Don't put on that look, to be honest, since the start of the army against Nurhachi, how many Han people in Liaodong have been killed, I'm afraid I can't count them, right?" I haven't killed it yet, so who are you going to show as if you were a dead father? I will tell you now, if you do not agree to our terms today, I will attack the city early tomorrow morning, and you can do it yourself. ”

Seeing that Yang Feng looked like he had set the price and would not let go, Lu Xiangsheng and the others were also surprised and secretly amused at the same time, Jiang Ninghou really looked like those rich people who were greedy for money in the countryside. But when they thought that if they could get so much gold, silver, treasure, cattle and sheep, they would have made a fortune this time.

Ning Wan I was silent, to be honest, although the 100,000 taels of silver and 1 million taels of silver proposed by Yang Feng were a lot for the Qing Dynasty, everyone could still make up for it when they got together, and the only thing they cared about was another thing.

After thinking about it for a long time, I said with a heavy face: "Since the Marquis of Jiang Ning insists on this, then the official will agree to your request, but you must also promise us one thing, that is, Liaoyang, Anshan, Gaizhou and other places will all be returned to the Qing Dynasty, and the condition that Guangning, Xipingbao and Haizhou must be crossed out, otherwise my Qing Dynasty would rather break the jade than never agree." ”

"Yes!" Yang Feng nodded happily.

"What...... You ......" Ning Wan looked at Yang Feng in surprise, how could this product agree to this condition so happily, is there any conspiracy in this?

"You don't have to look at Ben Hou like that." Yang Feng said impatiently: "If you don't want to, Ben Hou will regret it." ”

"Willing...... Absolutely. "I'm going to hurry up and agree, and a fool wouldn't want to do something good.

"In this case, you can go back and tell Huang Taiji to go back and raise money, within three days, Ben Hou hopes that you can send 50,000 silver, cattle and sheep and 30,000 war horses, don't play tricks, otherwise Ben Hou will use artillery to talk to you." Someone, send off! ”

"Jiang Ninghou, please wait a minute." Seeing that the guards outside the tent were about to send themselves out, Ning Wan and I hurriedly said: "This official still has something to discuss with you!" ”

"Counsel?" Yang Feng looked at Ning Wan and me, and said with a smile: "Okay, you can say it." ”

"No...... We would like to be able to consult with you privately. Ning Wan's eyes showed a strange light.

An hour later, Ning Wan returned to Shengjing and reported to Huang Taiji in Qingning Palace.

After listening to Ning's report, Huang Taiji's face was still very flat, "So Yang Feng didn't agree to our conditions?" ”

"Yes!" Ning finished my face with helplessness: "As soon as Yang Feng heard the minion's words, he drove the minion out without even thinking about it." There is really no way for a minion. ”

"It's nothing, I'd make the same choice." Huang Taiji was not surprised at all and said, "The reason why the Jiang Ning army has been able to repeatedly break my Great Qing Dynasty Iron Cavalry is because of his indestructible firearms and artillery, if he is even willing to sell this kind of thing to us, it would be stupid." The reason why I asked you to ask him was just to ask with the attitude of trying, if you can buy it, it is the best, if you can't buy it, it doesn't matter, we are not without a way. ”

"Yes!"

Ning Wan also said excitedly: "The Jiangning Army's firearms are really powerful, and they are definitely not able to resist by manpower, so the slaves think that we must also form a firearms army, otherwise there is no way to compete with the Jiangning Army." Your Majesty, this matter should be sooner rather than later! ”

In the past two years, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has had enough of the suffering of Jiangning's armaments, not to mention anything else, in the past two years, the loss of soldiers and horses in Yang Feng's hands alone is no less than 60,000 or 70,000, although nearly half of them are Mongols, surrendered Han Chinese, and Koreans composed of auxiliaries and armored men, but the Manchu losses are not small, which also makes the concept of the Manchu Qing Dynasty have undergone great changes.

In the past, because the quality of the firearms of the Ming army was too poor, and the quality of the soldiers was not high, there were a lot of jokes on the battlefield, which also made the Manchus despise firearms very much, thinking that this was just a useless appearance, but the appearance of the Jiangning army gave the Manchus a good lesson.

The heavy losses made them realize that firearms were so powerful when they were used well, and that there were originally voices for the formation of firearms units within the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but they had been suppressed by some stubborn forces, who insisted that only skillful archers and horses were the right way, and firearms were just some crooked ways, and that firearms were not very mature in the past, and they were subject to many restrictions.

For example, it is difficult to use in rainy weather, etc., so for more than two years, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has not had a unified understanding of firearms, at best, it has formed a way for Tong Yang to cast some Hongyi cannons, but after the great battle the day before yesterday and this humiliating alliance under the city, the Manchus finally realized that if they hold on to the previous concept, what awaits them is likely to be destruction.

Huang Taiji asked again: "A few days ago, I asked you to find a way to get the guns and artillery used by the Jiangning Army, how did you do it?" ”

Ning Wan replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has already bribed a few soldiers in the Beijing camp through the spies in the capital and got back a few guns, but the artillery is too heavy, and the people in the Beijing camp are also watching very closely, so they can't get their hands on it for the time being." ”

"Now that you have it, you immediately tell Tong Yangxing and ask him to send someone to imitate it as soon as possible, and we will also form a firearms battalion. I don't want to wait until the next time the Jiangning army comes again, our warriors will have to use their flesh and blood to meet the Jiangning army's lead bullets and artillery. ”

"Whoa......
