Chapter 369 The Messenger

The elders of Mara City did not know that they demanded negotiations, but instead excited Li Changning and strengthened his idea of ​​continuing to bombard the shelling.

Using tank guns as artillery will have to bear the price. First of all, the price of grenades is not high, but Mo Shaoqiu's price is very expensive. Secondly, the life of the tank gun barrels. The quality of Soviet guns has always been poor. The old tanks in the late World War II had good performance and could hit 300 rounds, while the armor-piercing shells with high velocity may only have 200 rounds. If the shelling lasts for another three days, all of these old tanks will have to be replaced. As far as the environment of the Western Continent is concerned, this tank will be temporarily scrapped.

Of course, now that with the Muse's clear agreement, just four barrels are just a matter of xiǎo.

Li Changning attended the negotiations attended by Sir Muse, and the agreement of the Senate was very clear: "All agreements in the slave camp are invalidated, and anything can be negotiated."

To put it in a euphemism, it is equivalent to agreeing to continue selling slaves in the slave camp.

With this guarantee, Liao Xiang brought back 2,500 slaves that day, almost twice the amount used before, and the price was half reduced, without any stopping.

Seeing this effect, Chen Yi indeed allocated two new tanks to the tank company, plus two training tanks, the Tank Battalion equaled 6 tanks, which was enough to replace the shelling for one week.

Of course Li Changning would not give up on artillery attacks.

He did not even tell the Muse what he wanted, but simply used shelling, aboriginal killing, and aboriginal killing methods to prevent Mara from repairing the one-third of the damaged walls, and then waited for them to propose more harsh conditions for surrender.

Bombardment and long-distance shè strikes are very safe operations for Xijiang City - perhaps not so safe for the indigenous companies, but they finally have Samison armored vehicles to protect them and no casualties have occurred in a short period of time.

After watching the West Horse market by the river for a few days, finally choosing between danger and copper coins, most of the merchants reopened on the day the Muse arrived.

But for the soldiers of Mara City, it was a nightmare day.

At the beginning, they drove the slaves to repair the city walls. Later, the slaves would rather be beaten to death than go to the city walls to the east, so the soldiers were expelled by the knights... If they eventually defeated, many heroic stories would emerge as the "Xijiang Artillery Battle".

Unfortunately, the elders asked for peace.

They must seek peace. Because the temple war is about to begin, all troops must be fully equipped, and the number of people in vacancies will determine the status of the principal priest Eyal. The lack of a certain system will cause him to step down and seriously affect the temple's view of the city-state - any reason is that the temple seems to be indeterminate, and any city-state will have problems. In fact, whenever the temple war is war, there will be particularly many rebellions, and even the most remote mountain people know that the army will be transferred forward at this time...

Therefore, the temple always requires full established troops, without exception.

Yiyaer was unwilling to step down and did not want to lose his army. He banned any temple troops from counterattacking. Yiyaer did not want to be demoted or demoted, so he asked the temple troops to go to the battlefield as scheduled...

The elders of Mara City had to ask for peace, and they were anxiously asking for peace.

Muse once lowered the conditions to the point of compensation, but still did not receive a response from Li Changning.

If it weren't for his reduced shelling time, the nobles of Mara City would have almost thought they wanted to occupy the city-state. Although they did want to.

On the last day before Chen Yi left, Sir Damas stood in front of the Great Mén of the Xijiang Village. This senior envoy also visited the newly built Xijiang Village, so he was elected by the nobles.

If Sir Damas was a little interested in Xijiang City in the past, he would look like a rabbit who was desperate to get into the skunk's room and endure endless farts...

Sir Damas wrinkled his nose hard, and he didn't even have time to walk into the hotel on the second floor of the xiǎo building on the east side of the square, and asked first: "Who is Li Changning?"

The only job Muse has done in the past few days is to determine the person in charge of the shelling and negotiations.

"Maybe you want to rest for one night first, so far away." Dai Adi smiled a little creepy. He chose him as Sir Damas's receptionist, that is, Li Changning's dirty tricks can be thought of

"No, I'm not tired." Sir Damas dared not delay his work anymore. The priest almost sat in the Senate and urged his temple troops to set off.

If the problem of Xijiang City is not solved, who dares to let them set off?

"If possible, please ask Mr. Li Changning to come."

“Where do you want to meet.”

"What?"

Dai Adi smiled like a skunk and said, "We have three reception points, each by the river and the square. Oh, and there is a central huā garden we built, which contains pavilions, towers, Taihu stones, and really Taihu stones. It's really good. Where do you like?"

"When will I see Li Changning?"

"Oh...this." Dai Adi said with a smile: "Our foreign office requires you to meet several officials first, so as to initially determine the content and scope of the negotiations, as well as the degree of details..."

Sir Damas couldn't understand most of what he said, but he understood one thing, and the other party wanted to delay time.

As a politician, this made him think a lot...

The direct result of delaying time is to delay the time of sending troops in the city-state of Mala, which will change many things. The temple's view on the temple of the city-state of Mala, the appointment and removal of the main priest, the funding obtained by the city of Mala, the distribution of trophys, and the borrowing of the force of the temple...

"What do you want?" Damas decided to start the negotiations immediately, right here, right now, right next to the city. He didn't have much time to go to the house.

"I don't have the authority to talk about these things." Dai Adi was a little strange, partly because of konjac, partly because of him.

"If you don't want to talk, I have to leave." Damas took his last move by retreating to advance.

Dai Adi made a respectful gift.

Damas didn't move his feet, but said, "It seems that you really want to negotiate, but I must meet His Excellency Li Changning before I can start the negotiation."

"Okay, maybe you will be the best tomorrow." Dai Adi insisted on bringing Sir Damas to rest, and it was the most crowded square hotel. In this way, merchants from distant city-states could see the messenger of Mara City who came to seek peace.

The Western Malaysia market returned to normal that night - the reason for saying this is because jing's businessmen would sign contracts to buy goods that night, from those merchants who were not well-informed enough.

This is a spontaneous behavior, without anyone's indoctrination, the invisible hand of the market will hold them.

The next day, Chen Yi left Xijiang City Village. He had only two requirements for Li Changning, to clarify the property rights of the natural rubber forest, at least demolish the east wall of Mala City, and not rebuilt within 10 years.

Of course, Li Changning's goal is more than that. This is the most important task he has undertaken after coming to the Western Continent. He must be outstanding enough to gain a foothold in the diamond conference hall.

Therefore, after Chen Yi left, he did not meet Sir Damas immediately, but instead ordered Dai Adi to lead them around the city, especially the Xijiang Wharf.

Just like the beginning of all commercial cities, Xijiang Wharf is the most prosperous area in the city.

Businessmen from afar will risk a 30% loss rate to come to Xijiang Wharf, and then load the "Jiangning Goods" into a ship and go home - they may also lose 30%...

Among the supplies Chen Yi transported from Jiangning, a large number of them were sold out in this way, in exchange for countless goods, manpower, copper coins and snail shells.

He can get about 2 tons of platinum almost every month, mainly because there are many bartering situations, and copper coins are only a little bit, which is far from being light... Merchants bring goods and take away goods is the most common situation, and the currency is just the difference.

Such a pier is too common on Earth, but in the Western Continent, even the students' management methods are already amazing.

The in and out of bulk materials is even more coveted, and at some point, it is also terrifying.

Just like tigers will scare wild dogs when they are free from wolfs.

The beast tendons used as strings of crossbows, the uncondensed ores, and slaves from other city-states...

Wandering on such a street, Damas gathers all kinds of feelings.

"You seem to have changed again."

Dai Adi put away the red wolf's posture and smiled like a normal person and said, "In our words, it is development."

Damas took the opportunity to ask, "Where is the words?"

"Jiangning dialect." Dai Adi laughed.

A young man from Yun Village ran over, raised the gray and yellow booklet in his hand and shouted: "Information books, information books, intelligence books, intelligence books like Jiangning people."

Damas's heart moved, took out his purse and said, "Give me one."

"A small amount of money." The boy handed Damas the booklet.

"Give it to you." Damas gave him a copper coin.

The young man thanked him so much, but did not salute him.

Damas opened the booklet unchangedly and saw the numbers and words inside.

There are two types of texts: common words and Jiangning. He studied the latter for a while and Xijiang City Village worked hard to promote it.

"What is this for?"

"Commercial use." Dai Adi smiled and pointed to the ship in front of him and said, "Serve them."

There are at least 300 ships docked on the pier in front, including two or three hundred tons of large ships.

Although the city of Mara is close to the river, the ships they own are at most fishing sloop sailboats, and the temple has special water warfare troops, so they do not need to build ships.

Damas was a little depressed, but he quickly came over and asked, "How do you serve this booklet? Is it really made by you?"

"No, our own booklets are now called Inners. Their booklets are used to guide easily, such as price, demand, and most importantly, our tax reduction policy." Dai Adi said, pointing to a large ship in front of him and said, "For example, the animal tendons on it are sent to Mara City, with 40,000 long animal tendons and 20,000 double-digit cow tendons. You seem to want to make a lot of crossbows."

Damas's heartbeats and said, "That's for the temple war, you...you..."

"Don't worry, brother." Dai Adi patted Damas' shoulder as if he was carrying a brother, and said with a smile: "We are just collecting taxes, just crossbows, not within the control scope."
