Episode 10 Chapter 116


One hundred and sixteen chapters The reason why Arthurf wants to join the Wind Army is also his own idea.

As the second son, he is not as important as the eldest son, nor is he loved by his parents like the third son, he is just stuck in the middle, his grandmother is not kissed, and his uncle is not loved.

Tia's throne basically has nothing to do with him, and he is a prince, and it is also very embarrassing to want to serve in the Tiya army, this time Tang Yin happened to visit Tia, he took the opportunity to propose to join the wind army, in his opinion, he is more developed in the wind army than in the Tiya army, and he can display his talents more, don't worry.

Tang Yin didn't think about it so much, he just felt that with Arthur as a hostage in his hands, Tia would be more obedient in the future.

The most opposed to this matter was naturally King Geral, but after all, it was Arthurph who took the initiative to bring it up, and Tang Yin had already accepted it, so he couldn't open his mouth even if he wanted to oppose it at this time.

After this matter came to an end, Tang Yin and Gerald talked about the government affairs between the two countries.

Geral first offered to hope that the Wind Country would set up a permanent garrison in Tia like the previous Ning Kingdom.

Tang Yin hesitated a little about this, not because the Feng Kingdom was short of troops, but because the war with the Mo State was imminent, and he divided his troops to garrison Tia, for fear of affecting his own combat strength.

However, as a subject country under the protection of the suzerain, it is also the responsibility to refuse, Tang Yin thought about it for a while, and nodded in agreement.

He thought that the Aquila Army was stationed in Ningdi, and he could detach a part of his forces to garrison Tia.

Receiving Tang Yin's approval, Gerald was very happy, and finally a smile appeared in his eyes.

Tia is a small country with few people, no matter how advanced science and technology are, the national strength and military strength are too weak, even a weak country like Dooky can beat Tia without the power to fight back, if there was no protection of the Ning army before, Tia doesn't know how many times she would perish, and now that Ning no longer exists, Tia can only choose the Wind Country as a backer.

Although it is a vassal country, it will not be reduced to the end of destruction.

After Gerald made his request, Tang Yin immediately began to talk about the issue of military expenses and compensation for losses caused by the Wind Army's assistance to Tia.

Tang Yin discussed this matter with Liang Qi in advance, the battle between the Sanshui Army and the Duji Army in Tiya, the number of dead soldiers plus wounded generals was close to 50,000, Liang Qi thought that the military expenditure of two million taels plus compensation for losses was acceptable, in addition, the Feng Army captured a lot of booty, which was basically Tia's property, and these things had been seized by the Sanshui Army and were not returned to Tia.

Tang Yin felt that the amount proposed by Liang Qi was too small, so he added a zero to the back of two million taels, and the lion opened his mouth and directly asked for 20 million taels.

Gerald and Tia's ministers didn't expect Tang Yin to ask for so much silver, there were no silver ingots in Tia, only silver coins, according to one silver coin and a half tael, 20 million taels of silver would require 40 million silver coins, even if Tia's treasury was very rich, he couldn't come up with so much money for a while.

"Your Highness the Wind King, isn't twenty million taels too difficult for a strong man," Gerald said stiffly.

Tang Yin's face was straight, and he said: "King Hadesdi thinks that this king is asking for a price in the sky, the Sanshui Army is the most elite army of my gale, in order to protect the safety of Tia, this king did not hesitate to send the strongest army of our country to Tia, and the Duki army fought to the death, and even fought bloodily, suffered heavy casualties, and lost more than half, and its losses can be made up for by the silver two, this king only needs 20 million taels is already thinking of the love between the two countries, if King Hadesdi bargains with this king again, it will be too disappointing." ” If he said this to the principalities in the Haotian Empire, the other party would definitely scoff at it, whether it was Sichuan, Zhen or Mo, An, Zhen, Yu and other countries, their populations were large, and human life was the least valuable, but Tia was not, Tia was a small country with few people, and had always valued human life very seriously, and the casualties of the Sanshui Army in this battle were close to 50,000, as far as Tia was concerned, this was an astronomical amount.

After listening to Tang Yin's words, Gerald's face was full of embarrassment, and he said repeatedly: "No, no, Your Highness the Wind King, I didn't mean that, it's just that 20 million taels is too much, and Tia can't take out so much money for a while."

"Can you pay in installments" Seeing that the other party didn't want to bargain, Tang Yin's face softened.

"Ahh Tang Yin said with a smile: "Within five years, 20 million taels can always be paid off." ” Twenty million taels to be repaid in five years, and an average of four million taels per year, Gerald pondered for a moment and felt that this was still acceptable, and Tia could afford it.

He nodded and replied, "Okay, this king can promise His Royal Highness the Wind King that Tia will repay your country four million taels of silver every year for a limit of five years." ” Yo Gerald really accepted it, it seems that Tia still has a lot of oil and water to squeeze Tang Yin smiled secretly in his heart, but the expression on his face did not change, it seemed that this was a matter of course.

He said faintly: "You and I will be allies in the future, Tia is in trouble, my wind country will definitely help, of course, I hope your country will not be too stingy with me Gafeng." ” "Yes, yes, yes, what His Royal Highness the Wind King said is extremely true" Weak countries have no diplomacy, which is exactly the truth.

Compared with the Wind Country, Tia's area and population are not even comparable to a county in the Wind Country, and in front of the Wind Country, even if Tia has advanced technology and civilization, its strength is far from the same, and the negotiations between the two sides are not fair at all.

Next, Tang Yin and Gerald talked about some matters of cooperation between the two countries.

Speaking of cooperation, it is actually to discuss how the Wind Country can introduce Tia's civilization and technology on a large scale, as well as related talents.

Although the current talk is about how the Wind Country absorbs Tia's essence, the Wind Country is not without influence on Tia.

Tia is a very interesting country, its civilization is highly developed, all fields are very advanced, take the timekeeping, its time unit has been accurate to tenths of a second or even hundredths of a second, but Tia has no chronology, all the historical events do not have a clear, written record, just compiled into poems sung by wandering poets.

As for whether the various poems circulating among the people are true or false, it has long been impossible to verify, so it is equivalent to Tia having no history.

It was not until Tia became a vassal of the Wind Country that the year of the Wind Country was gradually used as the standard, and the year in which Tang Yin became king was the first year, which is usually called the first year of the Wind Calendar.

Later, Tia also began to establish the position of historian, following the example of the wind country, and recorded the history of the country.

Of course, that's all for later.

This meeting between the two sides lasted for a whole afternoon, and after the event, Tang Yin did not need to go to the Sun Temple to meet the high priest, and directly participated in the banquet of the royal court.

Tia's banquet is similar to Besa's, the form is the same, it is very casual, very free, there is no fixed seat, you can move around casually, but in Tia, the hierarchy is more strict, the whole banquet hall is divided into several blocks, low-level nobles can not go to the area of high-level nobles, it will be considered very rude, the banquet held by the royal court, non-nobles can not participate, no matter how rich, how status of commoners, in the royal court gatherings are excluded.

Tang Yin is not interested in this kind of banquet that looks like an alien race, but he can also handle it easily, Shangguan Yuanrang is very involved, and has been looking for an opportunity to get close to Marika, the eldest princess of Tia, but Marika's favorite object is not him, but Liang Qi, but Liang Qi's attitude towards Marika is very cold.

At the banquet, Arthurf took the initiative to come to Liang Qi and asked him what position he could get in the Sanshui Army.

Liang Qida didn't like a noble-born young master soldier like Arthur in his heart, and he didn't know how to arrange it.

Sending him out to fight, in case there are three long and two short, I am afraid that even the king will not be able to explain to Tia, and the three water army can not raise idlers, once a precedent is set, this kind of thing will be endless in the future, which will directly affect the combat strength of the whole army.

When Arthur came to ask, Liang Qi didn't think about it, and did not answer directly, but asked him instead: "What can you do in the army?"

Arthurf was very crisp, didn't think about it, and said bluntly: "Lead the troops to fight" Liang Qi smiled, looked at the translator standing next to the two, shrugged his shoulders and said: "His Royal Highness the prince should first learn the wind language before coming to talk to me about leading the troops to fight" On the battlefield, if the orders issued by the general need to be explained to the soldiers by the translator, it would be too funny.

Arthur's face was flushed by what he said, but he couldn't refute it, and finally nodded, as if swearing an oath, and said: "General Liang, don't worry, I will definitely learn the wind language well." ” "I'm looking forward to it."

Liang Qiwei didn't say anything more, shook the wine glass in his hand, turned around and walked away.

The atmosphere of the banquet was quite harmonious, and the nobles of Tia did not have a sense of hostility and rejection towards Tang Yin, after all, the Wind Country did not rely on military conquest to turn Tia into its own vassal country, but through the means of assistance, which laid a good foundation for the two countries to get along.

When the banquet was over, Gerald arranged for Tang Yin and his party to stay in the palace, and Tang Yin did not refuse.

There was nothing to say that night, and early the next morning, Gerald personally came to Tang Yin and invited him to the temple to meet Angela Tangbuni, the high priest of Tia.

Looking at the Temple of the Sun from a distance is already spectacular, and when you get closer to the temple, it's even more breathtaking, and it's a miracle of humanity.

The Sun Temple is at least one hundred and fifty meters up, the base is square, the whole is trapezoidal, the top is a huge hall, from the bottom to the top, you can only see the ivory white pillars of the temple.

Tang Yin estimates that it would take years or even more than ten years to build a building of this scale using modern machinery, and it is hard to imagine that such a great building could be completed in this era.

In front of the Sun Temple, whether it is a noble king or a fierce general of Lingwu, it will only seem incomparably small, and the feelings of worship and solemnity arise spontaneously, which can also understand why the Tia people have so much respect for the Sun God.

Seeing Tang Yin's look of amazement, Gerald said with great relief: "It is rumored that the Sun Temple was built by the Sun God at the place of creation, and this is also the only miracle in the world."

Tang Yin was happy when he heard this, it is a good thing that there is no history, and he can make up nonsense at will, saying that the Sun Temple was built by the Sun God, which is equivalent to saying that the Tia people are the people favored by the gods
