Du Jia pointed to the dozens of geese on the ground and said to Du En: "The autumn geese taste just right, the braised barbecue stew is good, send one to the lord of Western Xia, in order to fulfill the friendship of our landlords in the Tang Dynasty." ” Du En immediately picked up a wild goose and ran over and gave it to Li Qianshun with both hands, where is this special goose, it is obviously killing chickens to show monkeys, that means almost the same as saying that if you people in Western Xia dare to cross the line, this wild goose is your fate If the people of the Western Xia Kingdom had blown up before, but now they are all glaring at Du En with anger on their faces, but no one dares to really do it, the simple reason is that they are very afraid.
First, five swords, four deaths and one level, and then three salvos shot down a group of geese, and the Tang army had already told the people of Western Xia with practical actions that they were not only not weak sheep, but on the contrary, they were fierce tigers more fierce than wolves.
The corners of Li Qianshun's mouth twitched a few times, but he still let the servant take over the wild goose, and then arched his hand to Du Jia and said: "Thank you King Tang for your kindness, but your country is inevitably a little too domineering, right, I admit that your army is indeed strong, but after all, you only have tens of thousands of people, do you think that our 500,000 army is easy to bully?"
This actually sounds strong and is actually extremely weak, which is like saying that no matter how strong the wild boar and black bear are, they just say that the tiger does not dare to bully them casually, which is already very bad, they will never dare to say that it is a meaning to bully the tiger in reverse, Xixia now just hopes to be on an equal footing with Tang Guo, not that he thinks that he is already looking down on you on an equal footing.
After all, Li Qianshun is not the kind of artist emperor of Song Huizong, he knows the strength of the Tang army, not to mention that the three marksmen alone may not be able to deal with it even if he has five hundred elite cavalry under his command, unlike the Great Song Dynasty, which likes to rely on more people, Western Xia attaches more importance to individual strength.
Du Jia smiled faintly: "Brother Li, it is true that your country does have 500,000 soldiers, but don't forget that you are all soldiers, in other words, all soldiers are people, and there are only so many young and middle-aged men, and although our Great Song Dynasty has two million soldiers, there are more than ten times as many people."
Let's take us here, you have 200,000 people, we have more than 300,000 people, and it is not yet known whether we will win or lose a fight, but to put it mildly, even if our 300,000 is wiped out, there are still more than 1 million in the rear, and it will not take five years to have so many people, and can you Xixia do it?"
Li Qianshun was stunned when he heard this, and cold sweat couldn't help but trickle down his forehead, in fact, Du Jia's words were not small, first of all, the two million troops of the Great Song Dynasty were true, but at least half of them were township warriors from all over the country, and it was okay to maintain law and order, if you really want to go to the battlefield, you will be looking for death, and it is estimated that many people can't even stand in the basic formation.
Secondly, although there were many soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty, the territory was far above the Western Xia, so it was necessary to divide troops everywhere, especially in recent years, there were many internal contradictions, and forces from all over the country were swarming, and Tianhu, Wang Qingfangla, etc., were directly called kings, not to mention that there was a big trouble for the henchmen of the Tang State.
In addition, the more than 300,000 troops defending the Liao State could not be moved, so the actual combat power was not as strong as Du Jia said.
But where can Li Qianshun understand the mystery in this, Du Jia Fang did hit his key point, that is, there are really so many young and middle-aged men in the Western Xia Kingdom, so the most valuable wealth for them is not gold, silver, jewelry, horses, weapons, but labor, this time it was easy for Li Dezhong and Chamur to plunder more than 20,000 from the Song Dynasty, but more than 30,000 of them themselves died, and those who were slaves were slaves, and it was a loss.
Therefore, Li Qianshun wanted to bring Li Dezhong and the others back even if he was unreasonable at first, but now there is obviously no hope, it is impossible to say that he is not distressed, and his 200,000 people are basically all the belongings at hand, and they can't afford to lose them at all In fact, everyone understands this truth, it's just that Song Huizong's monarchs and ministers are too much waste, and they are forced to draw with a pair of kings and four twos by a small card, but Du Jia will not make such a mistake.
And the seed master next to him and Zong Ze could only smile relatively bitterly, especially the latter, he originally wanted to use the power of the Tang army to suppress the Western Xia, who knew that Du Jia turned his hands into clouds and rained his hands without making a sound, and turned their 300,000 troops into the reliance of the Tang State.
But what can they say at this time, can they say that this is a matter of your Western Xia and Tang Kingdom, don't involve our Song Dynasty Not to mention that this is very unkind, a bit of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, and it really wants to fall out If Du Jia is angry, he patted his ass and left, then they have to clean up this mess, after all, the territory of the Tang Kingdom is thousands of miles away from here, and the unlucky one will only be the Great Song Dynasty.
Therefore, the two of them could only be forced to take the blame for the Tang State, Li Qianshun pondered for a while before he said with difficulty: "What Brother Du said is very true, we really don't need to make a big move, this is not good for anyone, the widow can guarantee that not a single soldier in our Western Xia will cross this border line, in addition, we are also willing to give 100,000 yuan to the brothers of the Tang State every year as pocket money, just hope that your country can also live in peace with us, and do not cross the border easily." ” Zong Ze and the seed master were shocked when they heard this, this condition is too familiar to them, it is the content of the agreement signed between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia now, but the party who pays is different, in other words, Li Qianshun is already afraid of the Tang State, and would rather spend money to buy peace.
For a moment, they all had an urge to cry, and their hearts were mixed, on the one hand, they were also honored to be Han Chinese, after all, this was the first time that they had completely suppressed the party members; But this is the glory of the Tang Kingdom, and it has nothing to do with their Great Song Dynasty, which makes them very disappointed.
If this were replaced by Emperor Huizong's ministers who heard this condition, they would have laughed for a long time, just like a little rascal who bullied you on the way to school every day and asked you for protection money, and suddenly one day told you that he would not touch you again in the future, and was willing to buy gifts as reparations, then he was not busy agreeing.
But Du Jia thought for a while and discussed with Wu Yong and others before he said slowly: "We have already felt Brother Li's sincerity, but if you want to say that we still have a little money in Tang Kingdom, I am very interested in your country's war horses, so let's change it to three thousand war horses every year, in addition, it's not good if this period is too long, the world is cloudy, maybe your country's strength will soar and there will be a big breakthrough again soon, so it will be unfair to your country, for your consideration, this agreement will be signed for three years for the time being, After three years, we will discuss it again, what does Brother Li think":
