"Returning to the Empress, the twenty legions have all been rebuilt, and all of them are fully established, and now the armies are stepping up their training, the morale of the soldiers is high, and everyone is waiting for the moment of revenge against the Wei people! But ・・・・・・"

"Something to say! Don't stumble! ”

"Yes! However, a considerable part of the legions are seriously under-equipped! ”

Empress Silan frowned and muttered, "In the past year, the national strength of my Dajin Empire has been extremely depleted!" It is almost impossible to fully equip in a short period of time! ”

"Empress, the Wei State has gained quite amazing wealth through trade with Rome over the years! And the size of our caravan is far from being comparable to that of the Wei people! Now that Rome has a bad relationship with the Wei people, we just took the opportunity to enter the Roman market in a big way! Mink and regular timber from the snowfields and fresh fish from the ice sea were all in high demand on the Roman market! The prime minister suggested. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Konev immediately chimed in: "What the prime minister said is extremely true! We can organize our own caravans to trade with Rome, so that we can get greater benefits! ”

Queen Silan nodded happily and said, "Very good!" Konev, I'll leave this matter to you! ”

"Yes!"

Queen Silan pondered for a moment, and asked Prime Minister Schroeder in an inquiring tone: "Prime Minister, do you think now is the time to negotiate an alliance with Rome?" ”

It should be noted here that the previous alliance between Rome and Jin was not a real alliance, but only a temporary verbal alliance under the threat of the Wei army, and many issues were not discussed by both sides.

Schroeder pondered for a moment and analyzed: "Based on previous contacts, the Romans should be very worried that we are unwilling to enter into a strategic alliance with them because they occupy the western provinces of Wright and Kerit! They now clearly felt the terrifying front of the Great Wei Empire, although they had not officially clashed yet! We can use this to claim back to the province of Krith! ”

Queen Silan's eyes lit up, "Is the prime minister sure?" ”

"At least seventy percent sure!"

"In that case, the Prime Minister will go to Rome on my behalf! If an alliance agreement can be reached with the return of the province of Krith, it will be no better! Queen Silan said excitedly.

"The minister must be inferior to the mission!" Prime Minister Schroeder is colorful.

Queen Silan said: "There is still a tricky matter now! We have exiled soldiers of the East Germanic tribe in our army, what to do with them? These people are now a little frugal and unstable! If you don't deal with it properly, I'm afraid there will be a mutiny! ”

Cheng Xiang pondered for a moment and suggested: "It's better to be like this!" Promise to Mance Int that after the cold season, he will join the Imperial army to conquer the rebel tribes in the north, and after destroying the rebel forces, he will allocate the land that originally belonged to the rebel forces to them! ”

Queen Silan's eyes couldn't help but light up, and she high-fived and said, "This method is good!" They were used to suppress the rebellion and eliminate this hidden danger! Good! Konev, you go talk to Mansint about this! ”

"Yes!"

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Queen Silan returned to the harem. At this time, the chamberlain came to report that Joseph had come.

Joseph is the strategic staff of Queen Silan, in his thirties, not handsome, originally served in the front-line army, and was later transferred back to the forbidden army system, Queen Silan stayed by his side as a strategic staff officer after seeing him, but things don't seem to be so simple.

As soon as Si Lan heard Joseph's name, her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, revealing the unique coquettishness of a woman with a sense of spring.

"Please come to my bedchamber for Joseph!"

Of course, the chamberlain understood what the queen meant, and retreated as promised.

The forbidden army of the Jin State followed the clues and went to the mountains and forests more than 100 miles northwest of Beijing, and was ambushed by the other side carelessly, losing hundreds of people.

Nearly 10,000 forbidden troops of the Jin Kingdom searched in the mountains and forests for nearly a month, and there was no valuable harvest except for the loss of nearly 1,000 men and horses.

As the weather became colder and the snow became heavier, the Jin Forbidden Army had to stop the search operation and return to Shangjing, although they still left many surveillance posts.

"After a month of searching, thousands of people were lost, but not even a single one was caught! Tell me, what are you all doing? Queen Silan asked sharply, her beautiful face covered with frost, which made people shudder.

The deputy general of the forbidden army, Frontz, who was in charge of the search operation, couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and asked for guilt: "Please punish the queen!" ”

The queen snorted coldly and raised her voice: "Someone! ”

Two armored warriors immediately entered the main hall.

"Empress, please spare General Frontz's life for the sake of his past merits!" Forbidden Army General Delov pleaded urgently.

Joseph, the strategic staff officer of the military who stood under Dlov, also interceded: "Empress, although General Frontz lost this time, the main responsibility is not for him, but for our failure to make an accurate judgment of the enemy's situation in advance!" General Frontz should be punished, but not excessively! Please think twice! ”

The generals pleaded one after another.

The queen was silent for a moment, and said to Frontz, who was kneeling in the center of the main hall: "Since everyone is interceding for you, and the main responsibility is indeed not yours, the death penalty can be avoided and demoted to one level!" ”

"Queen Xie's grace not to kill!" Frontz thanked excitedly.

"Empress Xie!" The generals also said in unison.

The queen said worriedly to the prime minister: "Prime minister, this amount of unknown origin is always a hidden danger in Shangjing!?" ”

Although the empress judged that the other party was most likely a Wei person, she still had doubts.

Prime Minister Schroeder analyzed: "The number of the other party should be about 1,000 people, even if the combat power is strong, it is impossible to pose a threat to Shangjing and surrounding cities!" So we don't have to pay too much attention to them for now! For now, it will be enough to monitor it with a patrol force! ”

The queen nodded thoughtfully and asked Konev, "How is the caravan going?" A look of concern.

Konev's eyebrows fluttered and he said: "It's very smooth!" The first two caravans to arrive in Rome have already completed the deal! Queen, guess how much our two caravans have gained? ”

The queen smiled: "Where do you want me to guess!" Let's get straight ahead! ”

"Yes! The two caravans earned nearly a million taels of silver! Konev said excitedly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help but be stunned, and then they started talking to each other, and the main hall became noisy when it came up.

"So much?" Queen Silan asked in disbelief.

Konev nodded, and said with some regret: "If we had traded with the Romans in the early morning, we must have accumulated countless riches by now!" ”

Everyone couldn't help but feel a little suffocated. Queen Silan smiled: "Although it is a little regrettable, it is not too late to trade with the Romans!" Now is our time! ”

The crowd nodded thoughtfully. (To be continued.) )
