Chapter 1014: Sign a big order
Under the dumbfounded official who greeted him, the Ning army occupied the city wall in a completely unreasonable way, and a group of elite Daning border troops climbed the city wall and drove down the Houque border army, and disarmed them, this process did not last long, up and down the city wall, inside and outside the city gate, all were replaced by soldiers from the Daning Wuzi battalion.
The city wall was replaced with Daning's fiery red battle flag, and Shen Leng felt much more comfortable looking at it.
He ordered the people of the Gengzi battalion of the former army to set up camp in the open space inside the city gate, and the tents were quickly set up one by one, and the Tubo officials who looked confused were about to cry, and kept following Shen Leng and saying General, you can't do this, you can't do this, but it seems meaningless, Ning Jun set up the camp at a speed that made him feel incredible, and began to bury the pot to cook.
"Go and talk to your prince."
Shen sneered and said: "We don't bring much grain and grass, and after eating this meal, we will be hungry, so he not only wants to invite me to eat alone, but also invites the 100,000 troops I brought to eat, of course, it is not okay to eat one meal, and he can't help him become a king hungry, so ......"
Shen Leng looked at the Tibetan official: "You better go back quickly, it's three days away, it's six days to go back and forth, and we will all starve to death in six or seven days." ”
The official said with a sad face: "General, I can't explain you when I go back." ”
Shen Leng said: "Do you think I am not threatening at all?" ”
Shen Leng turned to look at the official, walked up to him, and said very seriously: "If you don't go again, my people will run out of food and grass, and I will eat your people." ”
He pointed in the direction behind him, and all the border troops of the Tubo State who were driven down the city wall were escorted and unloaded their weapons and armor.
"Have you ever heard of Ning people eating people?"
Shen Leng asked.
The official's face was ugly: "General, if you say this, first, I can't explain to King Youxian, and second, I can't explain to the soldiers on the city wall, besides...... I've never heard of Ning people eating people. ”
"Yes."
Shen Leng said: "Within five days, there will be no food and grass, I will let you see how we eat people." ”
After finishing speaking, Shen Leng turned around: "If you don't believe it, I can let you go first to see how much grain and grass we brought, I promise, after eating this meal, there will definitely be no more." ”
He said as he walked forward: "You don't have to be so embarrassed, just go and ask for instructions, if King Youxian is not nearby, I will let you eat me." ”
The Tibetan official sighed, turned around and hurried away.
Half an hour later, a team of personal guards escorted Modio, the king of the right sage, to come, when he saw Shen Leng, Modio obviously suppressed his anger, and said politely: "General, are you doing this a little too much, I opened the city gate to let you in, but you forcibly occupied the city wall?" Could it be that the Ning people are not here to help me, but to destroy my Tibet? I didn't feel your friendliness, but I saw your hideousness, if you are here to start a war, then we don't need to talk, see you on the battlefield. ”
"Look at you."
Shen Leng sat down: "Do you want to eat some together?" ”
There were three or four dishes on the table in front of him, very ordinary, but common things like cabbage and eggplant, no wine, in addition to these dishes, there was a large plate of white steamed buns, hot and just out of the pot.
Shen Leng took off his apron and handed it to his soldiers, and after sitting down, he pinched a steamed bun: "The dishes are found from the courtyard over there, and the noodles are found from the kitchen of your garrison, so Your Royal Highness is not welcome, it's all your stuff anyway." ”
Shen Leng took a bite of the dish and put it in his mouth, and nodded with satisfaction: "The craftsmanship hasn't been lost yet." ”
Chen Ran ate in one gulp, and after a while, half of the dishes on the plate were dried up, and the steamed buns were gnawed into one by one, as if his stomach was not satisfied, and there were more than a dozen large plates of steamed buns, and he had already killed five of them after a while.
"I'm sorry."
Shen Leng looked at the Right Virtuous King Modio and said apologetically: "Ning people have a lot of food, you have also seen it." ”
While eating, he spoke: "His Royal Highness the Prince just said that I went too far?" In this way, I thought of a way that was not excessive, after eating this meal, we could withdraw from the Tibetan country, and the city wall would be returned to you, so as to ensure that we walked cleanly. ”
Modeo's face was extremely ugly: "General, you're not here to help me, you're here to blackmail." ”
"You already know before I finish speaking?"
Shen Leng put down his chopsticks: "It's no problem to withdraw, General Tan asked us to come, we came, this is a military order, we can't disobey, but General Tan also said that the military food we need is supplied by the prince, and the battle can not be fought, but you have to pay for the road when you come, I have calculated it for you, the food and grass needed when the 100,000 army comes and goes back, and the military salary during this period is probably not much......"
He beckoned, Chen Ran got up and took the pen and paper, Shen Leng took the pen and paper and looked very serious, and after a while, he put down the pen with a little embarrassment: "Otherwise, let's estimate the pile, right?" ”
Modeo: "......"
"100,000 people are so big, you look at it."
Shen Leng looked at Modio with a sincere face, like a serious and honest businessman, the kind of undeceived child.
"Good!"
Modio gritted his teeth: "I can produce grain and grass, but there is one condition." ”
Shen Leng wiped his hands: "There's no need to talk about it." ”
Modeo was stunned: "I haven't said any conditions yet." ”
"You shouldn't ask for conditions."
Shen Leng got up and walked in front of Modio: "You shouldn't say that I have a condition, if you have to say it, it's better to wait until I knock down your fiefdom, then I will be more confident, and I will be more happy to agree to your conditions." ”
Modio glared at Shen Leng, his eyes were almost about to pop out of his sockets, but what was the use of his glare, he couldn't even stare through Shen Leng's face, Zhuang Yong once said that the arrows made by Daning were extremely sharp, but they must not penetrate Shen Leng's face.
After a long time, Modio let out a long breath: "We have to discuss." ”
He originally wanted to say that I could supply grain and grass, but the mobilization of the Ning army must be under his command, and the war cannot be started at will, and there must not be a scene where the Ning army can fight whoever it wants, he doesn't want to destroy Tubo, he just wants to become the king of Tubo and put this already messed country back in order, if the Ning army goes to war wantonly, even if he eventually becomes the king of Tubo, he will inherit a devastated country, God knows how long it will take to recover.
"Discuss? Yes, discuss! ”
Shen sneered and said, "Of course it's a discussion, don't you think we're just having a friendly discussion?" We politely and politely asked His Royal Highness the Prince to give us food, grass and food, and His Royal Highness generously agreed, I like this atmosphere, I like this atmosphere where anything can be discussed. ”
Modio couldn't wait to bite Shen Leng to death.
"Come, please be seated."
Shen Leng pointed to the chair in front of him: "You can sit down and talk about anything." ”
Modio said to himself, what the hell is this called, can you sit down and talk about anything? It's not like you want to say anything, and you have to hold back whatever I want to say?
But there is no way, begging people, how can you be comfortable.
Shen Leng's personal soldiers put down the tableware on the table, and Shen Leng also specially ordered: "Don't break it, I found it from the kitchen of their border army general's mansion, it's pretty good, it's packed, I still have to take it with me when I leave." ”
Modeo: "......"
Shen Leng beckoned: "Serve tea." ”
Chen Ran came up with a pot of hot tea, and stood beside Shen Leng after the table was placed, Shen Leng reached out and picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Modio: "The tea is also yours, my people turned it over for a while before turning it over, your tea is not very good, although it is our Daning's tea, it is just Chen tea, and the quality is not good, if His Royal Highness the Prince likes to drink our Daning's tea, you're welcome, tell me directly." ”
Modio smiled reluctantly: "Thank you......"
Before the words were finished, Shen Leng said seriously: "I have a tea garden at home, it is very large, if you want it, I will sell it to you at a friendly price, if you buy more, it will be more favorable, otherwise, my tea garden has no dealer in your Tubo, you can be an agent, I will give you a six-fold discount, if the annual sales reach a certain point, I can invite you to visit the tea garden, reimbursement of round-trip expenses, you have earned, you can set up subordinate distributors, if the sales are large, you can organize many people to visit our tea garden, Of course, you have to pay for their journey. ”
Modeo: "......"
Shen Leng took a sip of the teacup and spat off the broken tea: "It's really not delicious." ”
He put the teacup down: "Can I ask, where do you Tubo people generally buy Daning tea?" ”
Modio held back his anger and replied: "Originally, we could buy it in the commercial market of La Liga City, but after the war between the two countries a few years ago, the commercial market was rarely open to the Tibetan people again, and if we wanted to buy tea, porcelain, and textiles of the Ning people, we could only buy them from merchants from other countries in the Western Regions, but the price was extremely expensive, at least more than three times, and then there was a caravan from Qiuli's side, and they could send Qiuli's tea here by sea, as well as porcelain and other goods of similar quality, and the price was slightly lower." ”
Shen Leng paused for a moment: "The caravan that begs for Lilai." ”
He looked back at Chen Ran, and Chen Ran was also curious: "Is it really something from our tea garden?" ”
Shen Leng sighed: "I have to write a letter to Lin Luoyu when I go back, the quality of this tea is too poor." ”
Modeo said: "This is the frontier, and the tea here is basically ...... Smuggled from La Liga City, the price of such a lowest-quality broken tea smuggled could have bought high-quality tea. ”
Shen Leng asked, "Who is so bold to smuggle it to you?" ”
Modio looked up at the sky: "Talk about Kyushu." ”
Shen Leng: "Ahem......"
Modeo suddenly couldn't help it: "How much of the money you Ning people used to build weapons and the money for your armor was to talk about Kyushu pretending to sell things with good intentions to earn us back!" Now you're here in such armor and with such weapons! ”
Shen Leng sighed: "He is indeed too much. ”
Then he pressed forward and said very seriously: "Don't do business with him in the future, it's better to do it with us, the price is fair on our side, and the quality is good." ”
Modeo: "......"
Chen Ran pulled Shen Leng for a moment: "Let's get down to business." ”
Shen Leng said: "Hmm, isn't this the right thing? ”
Chen Ran: "Ahem...... Business, the king's business. ”
Shen Leng patted his head: "How can I forget, Your Royal Highness, you must be the king of Tubo, as long as you become the king of Tubo, you can sign a big order with me." ”
