After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 329 Exchange Conditions
Later, son Yangsheng ascended the throne as Marquis of Qi, and Mengdi sent Yurang as an envoy to celebrate, and then returned with Tianchang.

At this moment, Meng Di was still waiting. He was ready to return. This time, he had to pass through the Great Wall of Qi, so Tian Chang was an obvious document. glance.

He really didn't expect that Guoxia surrendered so easily, and there was some dissatisfaction on his face, but under the current situation, Tian didn't dare to offend Mengdi, so he spoke.

"The Marquis of Han gained a lot in Qi this time. The people he saw gathered near Yidu along the way, and those who didn't know it thought that something big happened here. This scene has never been seen before."

But Meng Di didn't care what he said, when Tian Qi came, didn't he just pinch his nose to recognize the reality in front of him?Although Tian Chang was a bit eccentric, Meng Di was not soft on what he deserved, he said with a calm smile.

"These people from the Qi State came here voluntarily, and the king thought that they might not be able to leave their homeland, so he wanted to choose a place closer to the Qi State to house them. There is a large territory outside the Great Wall of Qi. "

"This king thinks that it is most appropriate to use it to resettle these people. In this way, the relative stability between Qi and Han can be maintained, and it can be regarded as a testimony of the good neighborliness and friendship between you and us."

Seeing the change in Tian Chang's face, Meng Di smiled slightly, and then continued.

"This time, in order to congratulate the new King of Qi on his ascension to the throne, the King will also send someone over to present five thousand Evil Gold Blades after he returns. This should be called a congratulatory gift to express the sincerity of our Han Kingdom."

After hearing this condition, Tian Chang's eyes lit up. It was obvious that this was an exchange condition. Meng Di took away so many people, and at the same time wanted to take the land between Nanju City and Qi Great Wall.

However, Tian Chang was a little moved by giving out so many evil gold blades at once. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't care so much about these people and the land, because Tian Qi had already explained before leaving.

In the next step, Qi State will develop into Yan State. In this way, Han State will become the security guarantee of Qi State. At this time, we must try every means to make friends with Han State. It doesn't matter if we suffer a little bit temporarily.

The most important thing is to use the strength of the Han State to seek benefits for the Qi State. Thinking of this, Tian Chang smiled lightly, and then said.

"Just having a weapon is not enough without armor. I wonder if the Marquis of Han can increase the number of armors he gives to my Tian family every month? In this way, if there is any change in the state of Jin and Qi."

"Then we, Qi State, will also have the power to protect ourselves. After all, the relationship between Qi State and Han State is bitter. Jin State is now under Zhao Jianzi's governance, and it has become stronger and stronger. This is the common enemy of our two countries. "

Meng Di nodded approvingly after listening, and made a promise after a moment of contemplation.

"This is what it should be. Afterwards, Han will sell a thousand sets of armor and weapons to Qi every month. I hope that after that, Qi and Han will join hands to advance and retreat."

In a few words, the terms were settled, and Guoxia on the side frowned slightly after hearing this.

Marching all the way, after it got dark and set up camp, Guo Xia spoke to Meng Di in the big tent.

"Under the current situation, the Marquis of Han sold such a large amount of armor and weapons of the Qi State. I am afraid it is not a good thing for the Han State. The Tian family is best at forbearance. Now the Marquis of Han has taken away the Qi State. Huge population."

"Clan Tian must be on guard against the Han state. Moreover, Clan Tian has been training cavalry recently. It seems that he has the heart to imitate the Marquis of Han. Now Clan Tian has readily agreed to give away the land from Nanju Road to the Great Wall of Qi. Han country."

"Presumably they already have their next goal. If the Tian family can equip a cavalry in the country of Yan, and when the situation stabilizes, they can directly send troops to invade the country of Yan. At that time, their strength will definitely be greatly improved."

"As for Han, there is a powerful country like Wu under the threat, and Jin, which is recovering its strength, is on top. It can be said that we are facing enemies on both sides. If Qi is allowed to take advantage of this opportunity to develop, I am afraid that we will be in danger of raising tigers."

And Mengdi smiled lightly after he finished speaking, with a very confident expression on his face, and spoke slowly.

"Even if the Tian family can train a qualified cavalryman, it will not be the opponent of the Han country in the future. I hope they can use this time to attack the Yan country. If this happens, the Jin country will definitely take the spearhead directly. Aim at Qi."

"After all, no matter in terms of strength or population, among the northern vassal states, only Qi State can compete with Jin State, and Yan State has always been friendly with Jin State, although it has rarely participated in the affairs of the Central Plains."

"But Yan State is the eastern barrier of Jin State, and Han State and Jin State do not border each other. It is self-evident which one is more dangerous in comparison between the two, so the most important thing for us at present is to first Aiming at Wu State."

"As long as we can gain a foothold in the south, even if the Jin State wants to attack the Han State in the future, we don't have any worries. Now that we have taken the population and land from the Qi State, we naturally have to give them suitable opportunities." benefit."

"In this way, Qi and Han can stay together for the time being. As for the future, it depends on the future situation. What we lack in Han now is time. I don't think it will be long before Jin will send troops. defend the country."

Guo Xia immediately realized that if the Jin State sent troops to defend the country at this time, the most troublesome one would be the Qi State. As long as the Wei State completely fell to the Jin State, then once the Qi State recognized the Emperor Zhou of Huaicheng.

This will be the best reason for Jin to attack Qi. It is conceivable that a big war will happen soon. If you look at it this way, providing Qi with a large amount of military equipment is also a preparation for the future war.

So Guoxia said with some admiration: "Hanhou's grasp of the overall situation is really accurate. Now that the civil strife in Qi has just ended, Jin must show its strength in order to maintain its hegemony."

"In this case, the conflict between Jin and Qi is inevitable. When the time comes, we Han will send troops to help Qi resist the Jin army. Not only will we be able to defend against the enemy, but if we can win, we will also win over more vassal states. support."
