"Mutual trade customs clearance..." Lin Hongyuan thought to himself that Sangnan and Yanyang also had mutual trade customs clearance, so the road ahead was not difficult, so he agreed to Slante's request.
Ningzhou will open up trade to each other, and if the Northern Barbarians are in trouble, troops from the border will be sent to help.
Xie Xun and Xie Jue looked at each other and remained silent. Today was the smoothest day for the peace talks. Each clause was implemented and confirmed one by one. Although there were conflicts, there was progress.
Zhou Yu had the detailed terms of the mutual trade between Yanyang and Sangnan, and sent someone to pass it to Dugu Jing, Slante and Jin Tu for circulation. Xie Jue took the tea cup and drank the fragrant tea.
Mutual market clearance!
There is a sand ridge and snow mountain cutoff between Beiman and Beiman. Customs clearance for mutual trade is not as simple as that between Sangnan and Yanyang. It is necessary to build a customs clearance road. Beiman is willing?
Xie Xun asked, "After passing the customs, we need to build a road from Ningzhou to Beiman. Who will build it?"
"Let's come!" Priest Jintu said slowly.
Xie Xun shook his head, "Since we have cleared the customs, let's practice together."
Jintu and Slant looked at each other, and Slant said, "Okay, the Northern Barbarians don't have enough manpower, so we can't ask for it."
Millions of silver and gold can cover up many conflicts. Lin Hongyuan didn't think there was anything to fight over building a road. The peace talks went more smoothly than he imagined.
As long as the Northern Barbarians don't want the second son's life, it will be easy to talk.
Lin Hongyuan looked at the last clause of the clause, red sand mine!
This is the red sand mine requested by the Marquis of Zhenbei. Xie Xun and Xie Jue will definitely try their best to get the red sand mine. What leverage do they have? After Xie Jue finished a cup of fragrant tea, the shadow guard came over to give him a refill.
Dugu Jing looked at Xie Jue and smiled, "In winter, the conditions in the Northern Barbarian Royal Court are harsh and survival is difficult, so we hope that from October to March every year, the Northern Barbarian people can go to Ningzhou City to take shelter from the wind and snow."
"No!" Xie Jue and Xie Xun said in unison.
Marquis Anyuan also frowned.
"The Northern Barbarians are willing to exchange for 200,000 sets of red gauze armor!" Dugu Jing ignored their denials and put forward the most attractive terms.
"No!" Xie Jue objected.
A border fortress cannot be coveted by foreigners.
Lin Hongyuan realized that Xie Jue's tone was too strong and his face was not good. Of the three sons of Zhenbei Hou, Xie Jue looked like an invisible man and had the strongest power to intimidate him. The decisions he made ranged from the Marquis to the Young Marquis.
, there is almost no objection.
The peace talks went so smoothly. There was only one condition left. There was no need to argue with the Northern Barbarians. Lin Hongyuan said, "How many people from the Northern Barbarians will enter the city?"
"Sixty thousand people." Priest Jin Tu said, "They are all old, weak, sick and disabled people from the Northern Barbarians, women, children and children. There are cavalry stationed in Ningzhou City. Are they afraid of me, the 60,000 ordinary people from the Northern Barbarians?"
Lin Hongyuan and Zhou Yu looked at each other. If they were old, weak, sick, disabled, women, children, it would be acceptable.
Xie Xun sneered and said, "Ningzhou is a border fortress and an important military area. Even if the war ceases, the Northern Barbarians will not be allowed to enter. Even if they are old, weak, sick and disabled, who knows who will come in."
The Shaling Tianshan Mountains are the natural barrier for the Northern Barbarians, and Ningzhou is the natural fortress of Yanyang. There are cliffs on both sides of the city, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. After decades of fighting, the city has been built impregnably, with various cannons, crossbows, and mechanisms.
, the Northern Barbarians stormed the city of Ningzhou several times, but failed to capture it despite losing many troops and generals.
In the land of military strategists, every inch of land must be fought for!
Priest Jin Tu said, "Since Yanyang and the Northern Barbarians are brotherly countries, they should help each other and develop peacefully. The Northern Barbarians are suffering from the bitter cold and the people are suffering. We want to find a shelter for the old, weak, sick and disabled, but Yanyang is not willing to do so."
, this is so chilling.”
Xie Xun sneered, this tone was very familiar, a bit like the third girl.
Zhou Yu whispered, "Little Marquis, if women, children and children come to the city to seek shelter, you can consider it."
After all, there are 200,000 sets of red gauze armor. The red gauze armor given by the Northern Barbarians means that they do not want to fight again. With the same combat preparation, the Zhenbei Iron Cavalry is even more powerful, and the Northern Barbarians must avoid its edge.
Xie Xun had a cold face and was on the verge of anger. Marquis Anyuan mocked and said, "The Northern Barbarians had a good idea. Sixty thousand women, children and children went to Ningzhou to escape the cold. What if a woman marries Yanyang? Is it with the Northern Barbarians?"
Should we go back together or stay? How to deal with the half-year residence, eating, drinking, and urination? Should we intervene if there is an adulterer? Is it possible that there should be a special area for northern barbarians to live in Ningzhou City? What about Ningzhou?
It is a military fortress and you cannot move around at will. If there is conflict and bloodshed, will it cause tension between the two countries? Follow-up problems will continue to be troublesome. It is not as simple as 60,000 people entering the city to take refuge. Even if you sincerely think about women, children and children, the culture and customs are not
Likewise, there will definitely be conflicts if we live together in the same city, and it is not a long-term solution."
Marquis Anyuan concluded, "It's easy to ask the gods but hard to send them away. We don't dare to take risks. My family has gold and jade, and it's a crime to have a jade. Who can guarantee that the thieves will stay safe?"
"You..." Dugu Jing's face was gloomy, "We gave you gold, silver, and red gauze armor, but you can't even fulfill this small request. The peace talks are a joke!"
"Ninth Prince, calm down, let us discuss this matter." Lin Hongyuan was furious at him, fearing that the negotiated terms would change, "Tingfeng, what do you say?"
Xie Jue pressed his long white fingers on the paper, tapped it, and proposed a solution, "Ningzhou is an important military area, and foreigners are not allowed to enter. We will build a city at the battle site and on the bank of the Shaling River as a link for mutual trade and customs clearance.
, allowing the Northern Barbarians to stay permanently. This city is managed by officials from the Northern Barbarians and Yanyang factions, and the two races live together."
The water and grass along the Shaling River are fertile and suitable for northern barbarians to live in. There was originally a group of nomadic people outside Ningzhou City, but they retreated to the city due to decades of war.
Zhou Yu was overjoyed, "Yes, we can build a city as a mutual trade. This can be regarded as a bridge between the two races."
"Then does this city belong to Yanyang or the Northern Barbarians?" Slant asked.
Xie Xun wanted to curse again. Are you trying too hard and still want ownership? Xie Jue said coldly, "This city belongs to Yanyang land. The northern barbarians have the right to live there. The two tribes are officials and Yanyang is respected. Specifically
Policies are determined based on the cultures and customs of the two ethnic groups."
Dugujing, Slante and others exchanged looks.
Xie Xun secretly thought, it is rare for the second brother to talk so much, you must know what is good and what is bad.
"Okay!" Dugu Jing made the final decision, "In that case, the number of red gauze armors will be reduced by half, only one hundred thousand."
Xie Xun and Xie Jue looked at each other and nodded, "Deal!"
"It's decided that on the day the city is built, one hundred thousand sets of red gauze will be sent to Ningzhou City."
"No!" Xie Jue said firmly without comment, "Within two months after you return to the Northern Barbarians, 30,000 red gauze armors will be delivered to the battlefield. I want a deposit."
"You are taking advantage of the situation!" Dugu Jing said angrily, "You are full of tricks."
"You and I have an open fight. As long as you win, I will give you these 30,000 red gauze armors!" Both Slante and Jintu stopped the furious Dugu Jing. After Dugu Jing calmed down, he made a request.
Xie Jue was thoughtful, and Dugu Jing asked provocatively, "Second Young Master, do you dare?"
