God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Almost at the same time Jia Kui was thinking about this in his heart, Sima Yi, who was also in Central Asia, couldn't help but want to curse in his heart.

As a person with a very good character and almost maximum patience, it is really difficult for me to understand the current situation.

After retreating from the Turkish province, Sima Yi led the Han army to retreat further to the east of the Mesopotamian Valley, where they rested and recuperated in this relatively rich area.

Although this piece of land was not permanently allocated to the Han Empire, the Han Empire was given the right to use it for a relatively long period of time.

It can be said that it was precisely by relying on this piece of land to recuperate and settle down that Sima Yi had more time and energy to calculate and arrange.

However, before the plan that he had painstakingly constructed in his mind could be implemented, some of the previous economic strategies aimed at the Roman Empire collapsed.

By using credit, they obtained a large deposit from the Roman Empire in advance, but did not provide the corresponding silk items within the specified time. Some executors even took direct action and killed the buyers within the Roman Empire. It can be said that this caused a stir in the Roman Empire.

If it were only the first part, Sima Yi would not have cursed like that, after all, it was he who promoted the strategy and planning. But after the second part, even Sima Yi had to find a way to escape.

The former has no way to provide a sufficient amount of silk within the specified time, and can also find reasons to explain, or give compensation. Anyway, it can be delayed and there are ways to solve it, the prerequisite is to find him.

The reason for doing this is to prevent certain people from actually finding him. By then, he will have a way to deal with it and avoid damaging his credibility.

Anyway, after being educated by Chen Xi, Sima Yi has understood the value of credit, or has greatly improved the value of credit.

Credit can be sold and used for overdrafts, but that requires an extremely generous price, not the one currently offered.

After all, most of the benefits were taken away by the Parthian royal family, and it had little to do with him, so it would be easy for him to shirk responsibility if he wanted to.

However, not only did they overdraw their credit to obtain a large deposit, but they also did so to settle accounts, robbed their fellow thieves, and gave perfunctory reasons, etc. Because of these factors, they directly killed the buyers. Even Sima Yi didn't know how to complain.

Just as he had planned, the bomb did explode, but now it was too big and it was no longer something he could control.

If this kind of thing happened in the Han Empire or other aristocratic families, Sima Yi could imagine how angry these people would be. Even if it happened to the Sima family, they would be furious and would definitely make the other party pay the price, even if the other party had a higher status and was stronger.

However, this is based on the fact that the Roman Empire itself is in a weak position. However, it still has such thoughts and mentality. Moreover, compared with the Parthian Empire, the Roman Empire is obviously a strong one.

If it was just swallowing up a large amount of deposit, it might not be a big deal in the Roman Empire. There might be people who complain about it, or even quite a few, but it definitely cannot mobilize the entire strength of a country.

After all, for Rome, reducing Roman fame, or the consumption of silk by Roman nobles, was also a politically correct and political self-help act.

When sellers overdraw their credit on a large scale, buyers will naturally become more cautious. This external factor can also reduce enthusiasm for buying silk and reduce consumption of silk, which is a good thing to some extent. However, this matter has gone wrong at present, because this act of killing buyers on a large scale will definitely arouse the wrath of the Roman Empire.

This is no longer a simple transaction issue, but involves issues of concepts and ideas.

"After this incident, the Roman Empire will certainly mobilize its all. It is not even impossible for the entire empire to be united. By then, the combat effectiveness it can exert, or the scale of the army it sends out, will probably exceed the largest scale in the hundreds of years of war between the two countries..." Sima Yi raised his head, staring at Xi Zhong, who had a smile on his face, put down the letter in his hand, and described it in a sonorous voice.

"Oh? Will such consequences happen? Then what should we do? Completely abandon the Parthian Empire to appease the anger of the Roman Empire?" Xi Zhong, who looked shocked to hear such words, seemed very surprised by this matter. At the same time, he quickly and eagerly asked a rhetorical question, trying to make Sima Yi make a choice.

Sima Yi closed his mouth, biting the friction caused by his teeth, quickly calmed down, looked at Xi Zhong deeply, and finally did not say much.

We are all thousand-year-old foxes. There is no need to tell others what we have done in secret, nor do we need to inform others, because things are not laid out in the open after all.

As long as it is put on the surface, now that everyone has the support of the Han Empire and is expanding the territory, they will naturally do their best and help each other.

Theoretically speaking, as long as you put this matter out in the open, you will definitely be able to get results from the other party.

However, this matter is rather special, how could Sima Yi make it public?
Therefore, when faced with other people's calculations, oppression, or adding fuel to the fire, he can only swallow his anger and act as if this matter does not exist and has nothing to do with him.

"On the surface, the Parthian Empire is our ally, and there will be no change in the short term at least. Over the past hundreds of years, we have no precedent of abandoning our allies. Moreover, facing the Roman Empire, do we need to be afraid? Do we need to be terrified?" Sima Yi, who had calmed down, directly stated what was on the surface and gave his own answers to the questions.

"Support the open ally?" Upon hearing this, Xi Zhong instantly understood Sima Yi's thoughts, and at the same time knew that this matter was over.

Sima Yi, who originally regarded the other party as a firm ally, now only regards the other party as a nominal ally?
Have you given up on the previous arrangements and plans, or are you preparing to optimize the previous route?

But no matter which one it is, for Xi Zhong, as long as the final result is beneficial to Cao Cao, it can be arranged and planned.

It is not impossible to use someone else's chicken to lay eggs, to seize things by trickery, or to replace one thing with another.

Except for the final opportunity for promotion, all the processes along the way can be accomplished by taking shortcuts.

There is no distinction between high and low, noble and despicable means, there is only success and failure, that's all.

Although Sima Zhongda is excellent, he is still young and has to be proud...
