The Marshal of the Western Empire was dumbfounded at this time. He knew what it meant by the people of Cao's firm who worked so hard to develop the cavalry. Now he could see clearly that the tens of billions of silver in the Cao's firm were not worthless. Although they There are not many cavalry formed, but their cavalry has its own combat effectiveness. After this battle, I am afraid that no one would dare to say that the cavalry of Cao’s firm has no combat effectiveness, although they all won by some weapons and equipment. , But this is also one of the conditions for winning, just for now, what does this have? Everyone does this, so no one will say anything. Such things are very normal to anyone. If no one feels that this is normal, then he himself is not normal, Cao The people in the home business also felt the same, especially their cavalry. They had been blinded too much in the past. Of course, they suffered a lot of losses in this battle, because they were short soldiers, even if they did not kill the enemy. In the case of 10,000 self-defeating 8,000, they also lost more than 10,000 people. For Cao’s firm, these 10,000 people are not only a loss of silver, but also a loss of talent. Generally, they come from other empires. The cavalry in the army only needs a few months of training, but for the Cao’s merchants, it took them all a year to train them, so now they have received such training. The big loss, these people are also very distressed, the current situation is like this, but they have also beaten the momentum of Cao's Commercial Bank, and the strategic goal is considered complete. Now their role can be put down. The cavalry also knows that siege and blockade are not their expertise. Although the opposing camp does not have many fortifications, there is still a fence or something. If the cavalry rushes over. If this is the case, the opponent’s archer can be taken away. The cavalry’s goal is indeed very huge. As long as it is a man or a horse with one arrow, then this is considered useless, so they immediately Just give way. The rest is the work of the infantry of the Cao's house. In addition to the continued artillery shelling, these infantrymen also began to adjust their firing angles so that the crossbows they fired could be thrown into the Western Empire camp at the best angle. They could see a lot in ordinary rain. But they don't see this kind of arrow rain very often. The hundreds of super serial crossbows in front are also advancing step by step. They also vigorously tilted their crossbow arrows towards the opposite side, as if they were going to use this to defeat the other side. Those people on the other side understood it at this time. Their doomsday is here. The marshal who didn’t want to retreat back then regrets that uncomfortable. Why do you have to listen to the **** emperor’s order? It’s not a death hunt. All of your subordinates can see clearly. Didn’t I see clearly? If I run, I might have a way to survive. Now... By the way, I can actually run now. The marshal immediately got on his horse. Many people thought this guy. I want to take everyone to rush over, but this guy immediately turned around and the **** ran away. This is something that all the soldiers of the Western Empire did not expect. Although their marshals are not the kind of people who can conquer the war, how many It's pretty good, it can't be like this.

The Marshal of the Western Empire cannot be said to be a general, but in the military of the Western Empire, he still has a position of his own. Their families are also good generals. Of course, this marshal also made him. So one, but everyone knows that the current situation, those reputations and the like can’t be taken care of. Among the chaotic army, let alone an eighth-level fighter like him, even a ninth-level fighter may be Killed, of course, it is also possible that an ordinary person can live with good luck. If this is the case, it is the best thing. Of course, it is also possible that bad luck will come up and die, this marshal The reaction speed of some of the soldiers is not slow, good guys. At this time, the marshal has already ran away. We can't continue to wait for death here. They immediately chased after him. What kind of brutality was on the road. Anyway, people kill people when they come, and Malays kill horses. If these people are one-tenth of the brutality in the tea industry, these people may also kill all the people in the Cao family business, but now they are all They don’t have this ability anymore, they can only be used to escape, just as they were about to rush out of their north gate, there was also a burst of artillery fire in front of them. Earlier, Hong Lie was already commanding the army of two divisions. It was actually a gamble to take the airship behind them. If the people from the Western Empire really sent out reinforcements, this army might become the food in the mouth of the Western Empire, but obviously they did not send them. When they came out, the first thing that the tens of millions of Western Emperors thought of at this moment was that they were already surrounded, why would there be Cao's army behind them? They still have a way to go, and that is to enter the Mountains of Warcraft, but they are not fools. The beasts in the Mountains of Warcraft are eaten, not to mention thousands of them, even hundreds of millions. People don’t necessarily get out of it when they enter. This is the terrifying place of the Warcraft Mountains. Of course, people are instinctively scared when they see Warcraft. This is also a fact. Even so, they think I want to leave here quickly, otherwise they will feel like they are going to die here. These people look at the marshal's place one by one, hoping that the marshal can give them some hints, although they are very despised in their hearts. That guy, the marshal who flees from the battlefield is probably what that guy can do. No one else can do it, but now there is no other way, right? Now we can just mix with this guy, otherwise we will have no way to survive in the future. At this time, everyone saw the marshal made an amazing move. He actually took off his marshal costume. , This kind of thing made the soldiers of the Western Empire all the more messed up, and the marshal had no idea. At this time, the army in the south was already outside the camp, and it actually stopped the offensive. The people outside said loudly, "Put down your weapons, squat down on the spot, and surrender to avoid death. You are already defeated. Our Cao family The people in the firm are all prisoners of preferential treatment. We will not kill you. You will all become employees of the Cao's firm, and even join the army of our Cao's firm after education. You have heard about it before. Hopefully. You can make the right choice. "The foreigners have started their own propaganda war. This trick is considered effective.

At the beginning, not many people believed this. They all felt that the people from the Cao's House of Business would kill them, but they thought that many emperors had said before. It's really nothing to be a captive of Cao's house. That is to help them do coolies for a while. And another reason is that when coolies are still paid, they will not abuse prisoners of war so much. Everyone knows this. They are different from some people in other empires. They feel very good when they have this idea. These people have never seen prisoners treated like this before, but now they all feel that it is OK. For this reason, many people wanted to surrender. It's just that the marshal was still in the barracks. There were still tens of thousands of guards around him. If he really ran out, it would be finished. It’s okay for them to kill themselves. Just when these people didn’t know what to do, one of the marshal’s guards pulled out his own knife and cut off the marshal’s head all at once. Then he picked it up and rushed out on horseback. The other guards were dumbfounded. That guy was the most trusted person in the marshal in peacetime. Soon they all understood what was going on. It was a terrible thing. If you don’t quickly solve this problem, you won’t have much chance in the future. At the beginning, many people said that the guy was ungrateful, but now basically no one talks about it. I think that guy did the right thing, and if he changed to himself, he would do that too. Unfortunately, the marshal only has that head. After that guy goes out, he can definitely get a lot of money from that head. For things, as for them, they have no other choice but to surrender. In fact, if they all retreat in the direction of the Western Empire, it is absolutely impossible to stop them with the strength of the two divisions, but now When they saw that they were surrounded, they had no intention of resisting. In their opinion, if they continued to resist, it would be a death hunt. They wouldn’t do that anyway, so they hurriedly put themselves one by one. The weapon in his hand was thrown away, and now it’s fine. Li Yunbing took down the Western Empire's army without any blood. At this time, Li Yun also wrote the report to the military department. This cavalry must be kept. The role of these cavalry can be said to be very large. It was not seen in actual combat before, but now it can be seen in this war. What these people did is very good, and it is because of this, Li Wei They think that their cavalry should have more chances to go to the battlefield. Of course, they have to choose an appropriate time. It is not possible to let the cavalry come up in all wars. If that is the case, the loss of the cavalry may be very large. At the end of the day, even the people from the Cao’s house cannot afford such a huge loss. You must know that one cavalry can make a dozen infantry live a good life. This is the gap between the cavalry and the infantry. It can be said that Li Xun used his excellent command to smash this war. When Prince Ding's army has to face Tuoba Yuanye, there will be a layer of psychological pressure. It is still unknown how it is. It.

This also directly slapped the emperor of the Western Empire. This guy was in his palace the day before yesterday and said that those people in the Eastern Empire were useless. They were unreliable when things happened. Who knew that it took 48 hours. Without the past, it’s their turn. They can see it clearly. Sometimes things are like this. They need to use their heads to obtain some other resources. The same is true for gaining prestige. , The people of Cao’s Commercial Bank did fail in your hands last time, and because of this, your Western Empire’s army’s reputation has improved very quickly, but now it’s not the same as before. The people from Cao's House of Business have killed you again. Those who were killed were your new army. People from the Ordnance Department also took a look at the equipment of the Western Empire Hunting Suit. All in all, it was very good. Apart from the fact that it could not be fired continuously, it was already very close to the Cao’s business. Crossbow, in fact, the biggest function of the serial crossbow is to fire continuously. What use can they create something that cannot be fired continuously? It's not as a decoration, and the soldiers of the Western Empire are more accustomed to using bows and arrows. Even if they know that crossbows can be shot farther and more accurately, this habit of a hundred years is not so easy to drop. of. They don't quite agree with this thing in their hearts. This is also one of the reasons why the war did not break out. When the war started, they would always think about the huge gap between the things in their hands and the weapons of the Cao Family Commercial Company. That is why they thought about these things. Can it be improved? As long as there is such an idea. Especially on the battlefield. When I saw the soldiers of the Cao's House, I was scared first. How could this be done, even though their general had said it many times. There is nothing terrible about the soldiers of the Cao’s house, but they have no other way. They can only look like this now. Now all wars are over. What is left for the Western Empire is a time to summarize. However, they are still very clear that this matter should be changed. Their new army has its own ability, and for this reason, the new army of the Western Empire will start to handle it on a large scale in the future. Some generals on the front line also said after they went back that if they use the teacher army, they will definitely fail faster. How many new troops have done a lot of things, and many people also said that the cost of the new army is very high. It’s huge, but the battlefield itself is a place to spend money. If you don’t spend money at this time, you will have to die in the future. Everyone knows this truth. In terms of people, this time is a time to celebrate. After successfully defeating the coalition forces of the two countries, the next time is the matter with the Northern Empire. It can be said that this matter was caused by the people of the Northern Empire, Cao's firm. The relationship with you is good, but what did you do one by one, let the armies of the two empires come from your land to fight us, this is not your responsibility? The responsibilities you need to bear are too great. In the past, the people in Cao’s Commercial Bank at the junction of the three countries did not have a stronghold. Now they have to establish one. This is a nail. In the future, you want to start trading on the road. We will not stop you, but we will set up a card to charge you. This is also a benefit for you. I hope you can accept this. In fact, it is just a sentence. When you are not pleasing to your eyes, Lao Tzu I want to do everything.

After killing the army of the Western Empire, Li Wei spent ten days clearing some areas around the battlefield, and found all the stragglers here. At this time, they must not be allowed to stay. Yes, because there is a huge city to be built here. It is located at the junction of the Western Empire and the Northern Empire, and it is also the closest area where the Western Empire trades with the Northern Empire. In recent years, some land trade has begun to appear, Cao The airship trade of the company has already suffered some blows. Most people started trading from this place. Although there will be some bandits and monsters around here, the danger is not small, but for some profiteering products Say, this kind of danger is nothing, it's nothing at all. If you want to earn a certain amount of money, how can there be no danger? If this is the case, what are we waiting for, just do it, this is also The place Li Yun fancyed. In the past, the merchants of your two empires were able to travel everywhere. It was nothing more than this dangerous area of ​​five hundred miles. Now our Cao family business people control all traffic. It’s important, it’s okay, all transactions must be done inside our city, so we will also collect a lot of taxes. Of course, you can also not give us, then you can’t enter the city. All of you are trading outside the city, but I would like to remind you that it will not be so easy after you go out. Our people may also rob you. Of course, the main obstacle is not our people, but Those terrible beasts, they often come out from the mountains of the beasts and eat people. These guys are not so easy to talk. The people in the Western Empire and the Northern Empire will also be surprised when they know Li Wei's plan. Didn't say anything. After the war is defeated, there will be a certain loss. This loss is still in their eyes. In fact, some capable people in the country have also seen Cao’s future attempt to control the trade between the two empires. Yes, but now you are all from a defeated country, and you have no way of expressing some ideas. People can threaten your homeland. If you don’t believe this, it’s a matter of no choice, as much as possible. Try it out. In that case, there will be another war at the end, and they can all say that they are not afraid of war. But this time let them see clearly. If you fight, you are really not the opponent of the Cao's firm. If you really make trouble, people like yourself will suffer a lot. It is better to be honest. Don't make so many things. Therefore, even if the two empires knew what Cao's merchants wanted to do here, they had no way. If they really fight, they don't have that ability, so they can only swallow their breath. It is not theirs that they are most afraid of. They just give up this land. They are not worried that Cao’s army will directly come in, because it is not very close to their border, but the people of the Northern Empire I have to be afraid. This place is too close to the border of the Northern Empire. As long as Li Wei thinks, it can definitely be reached within a day. At the beginning, the benefits of receiving people’s homes were good, but now it’s time to take responsibility. It’s also good when

After the Cao’s family’s army cleared the battlefield, they also had their own business, that is, they gathered together and then began to stand guard. Behind them, a large number of prisoners of war started the construction of this new city. It will be a trading city, so the area will certainly not be too small. Hong Lie is enough to do such a thing. Li Yun still has his own business. Now Li Yun started to the north with millions of troops. The border of the empire is now. It is really easy to attack you. Open your eyes and take a good look. The artillery of our Cao’s house has reached the southernmost province of the Northern Empire. It’s a provincial capital. I passed by three prefectures before. It’s a pity that the army in the prefecture didn’t know where they went. They were already annoyed by the defeat of the Eastern Empire. Unexpectedly, when their power was the weakest, the army of Cao's Commercial Firm also came. If this were to fight against Lao Tzu from both sides, would these people want or? It's harder than climbing to the sky. If this city is still a county, they must have let it out. They also know that if they want to make Cao's businessmen turn off the fire, they need to make some sacrifices. In the eyes of Cao’s house, several prefectures and cities are nothing. It’s even more impossible for them to retreat by relying on these prefectures and cities. These Cao’s house members are one of them. All of them are very good at calculating these things, and it is estimated that their goals will be many, so most people have heard that the people of Cao’s Commercial Bank are already under the city, but they are not very nervous, because they know the North The empire will quickly negotiate with the Cao’s merchants. However, judging from the situation on the scene, it should be the Cao’s merchants who have the advantage. The people of the Northern Empire should suffer. This is true. The influence of Li Wei is absolutely definite. If Li Wei is an ordinary little hairy boy, it is estimated that the smallest official of the Western Empire may not be so familiar with this guy. No matter where he is now, no matter where he goes, it is a rumor. Li Yun led the army to the southern part of the provincial capital. The first thing he did was to have a grand military parade, let you all know that the people in my Cao family firm are not so bully. This trade city will think about it in the future. If you want to be safe, most of the time you have to rely on the Northern Empire. If they have been beaten by i, they can be super meticulous, but it is easy for the Northern Empire’s army to come here, so Li Wei wants It created a huge strategic vacuum for himself. Just when Li Wei was studying what to do, the governor on the enemy's side actually asked someone to send out a letter, and there were hundreds of thousands of Cao with him. The bank notes of domestic commercial banks are not very demanding. They just need to save their blamed bank. As for some other things, they can’t be too gracious. Maybe they feel that this is strictly necessary. Other things can change this thing, that is, because of this thing in front of him, Li Wei feels that he wants to take this place down. This is a province with a good economy. If they can get rid of this province, they will definitely have a very good life in the future. Those with all the miracles and weapons will be much better than their own.

Naturally, the Northern Empire also knew Li Wei’s thoughts. They would never let this become a reality. If it was really like that, they would have lost their wife and lost their troops this time. Their meaning was very clear. That is to let this matter go down quickly, without any sequelae is i the best. They all understand this very well. Therefore, one of the highest duke of the Northern Empire arrived here quickly and wanted to negotiate with Li Cong. Speaking of which, this guy is still Li Cong's relative, and Li Cong's wife, the little princess of the Northern Empire, is a cousin. Of course. Speaking of which, the entire Northern Empire imperial family is related to Li Cong. The relationship mentioned here is not the kind of very distant relationship, but the relatively close relationship in front of you, just like the one in front of you. This man belongs to the cousin of Li Cong’s wife’s aunt’s family. Naturally, he is from a very good background. He is also the only son in the family. In general, nobles have dozens of brothers, not hundreds of them. How rare, it is rare that the whole family is just one heir, but this also has a lot of advantages, that is, such people basically have no competition, and the family will not split out because of this matter. This kind of thing is very good for anyone. Of course, it is not a very good thing for the little wives of the previous generation of princes. According to the laws of the Northern Empire, the next generation of princes is the duke. Now, after the death of the princess, those little wives will live with their son. If the son's title is good, their life will be better? It's a pity that there is no son, so the life depends on the Lord Duke. This guy bought a huge manor and sent all the women of his father in, and generally wouldn't let them out. However, food and drink must be adequately supplied. To put it bluntly, it is for them to keep their widows. Naturally, this kind of life is not so easy. This guy is also very poisonous. Anyway, if you can't stand it, there will be mistakes of this kind. At that time, there will be fun in this matter. In the end, it must be no problem how you want to treat you. There is no relationship between the young master and the aunts at home. There is no obvious relationship between the master and the duke. It’s already very good to start with them. Right now, this guy didn’t know how high and low he wanted to meet as Li Yun’s uncle. In fact, if Li Cong gave this guy’s identity to his work card, Li Yun had to be called The Lord Duke called out his uncle, but Li never made it public. This looks very good, and what else is needed? Now this thing is like this, many people don’t know how to do it, and Li Wei’s reply is also that those who should meet should also meet, and the things that can be obtained on paper should not let the brothers bleed. It also left a certain amount of combat power to the people of Cao’s House of Business. Now that they have experienced two wars, these people are really very tired and need a certain level of cultivation. Otherwise, they may eventually have problems, especially It's their bodies that can't bear such a large compliance operation. The meeting place is in the provincial capital. The regulations only allow Li Yun to carry a guard of no more than 200 people. They are directly happy with this Li Yun. Damn, it seems to be I really consider myself an uncle just like I lost a battle?

The answer from Cao’s House of Business is also very simple. If you want to meet, it’s okay. It’s just at the gate of the city. It’s not a shameful thing. If you don’t want to, we won’t say much. Sometimes this The matter is just like this. We are asked to negotiate, and there are so many regulations. Do you think you are the ones who defeated our Cao Family Firm? Impossible, the comprehensive national power of the Northern Empire can be said to be slightly stronger than the current Southern Empire, and with the help of the Cao’s House of Business, the Southern Empire will soon surpass yours. The tone of an empire like yours. It is bigger than the Eastern Empire, and you are a Duke of the Northern Empire. The title is okay, but according to statistics, there are more than 450 dukes in the Northern Empire. You are not a hereditary title. The next generation will be a marquis when you reach your son, and such a title will come to talk nonsense with us? The Duke of the Northern Empire was angry after reading this letter, but nothing was left. In fact, he didn't want to take care of such things. It’s just that he was in this place among the nearby Northern Empire nobles. When the war began, everyone quickly left. Everyone knew that the place nearby was not a good place, and it might affect oneself. The guy thought that the war was not that serious, so he stayed, and now it’s fine. If something like this happened, I just let you watch it here. You can do things like this. It is estimated that other people can't do it, and they don't look at the current situation. In fact, this guy's brain is not short-circuited, but this guy has not experienced those power struggles in the Duke's mansion. So sometimes it's a bit of little consideration to talk and do things. It is for this reason. Many people have given him a nickname called "Duke of Silly", which is basically the same as swearing. But this guy doesn’t mind. There are hundreds of dukes in the northern empire’s capital. When it comes to that guy’s title, it’s not likely that people outside will know that person right away, but when it comes to his nickname, it’s Some children also know that he is still very satisfied with this matter, and he is considered to be the number one character in the Northern Empire. He was very angry at Li Wei’s disrespect for him, and he closed the city gate directly. I am going to ask Li Yun to beg him. Some of the people around him are also villains who tend to be inferior. They don't even think about what the real situation outside is. What they think is whether they can be avoided by the people of the Northern Empire. In the war, they kept saying bad things about Cao’s business, and what they said was the end of the war. It was impossible to have any danger to the people of the Northern Empire. Even if it did, there was no need to be afraid. Just hold on, don't he dare to attack the city? The first night passed so peacefully. Many people who knew Cao’s house were dumbfounded. They all said that the people of Cao’s house had no patience. Now it seems that this sentence is simply wrong. In such a situation, the people at Cao’s House of Business can’t bear it, it’s very good. Nothing else happens at all. When they do things, they do quite well, so it seems that this statement is counted. It's okay, can you get there?

When the sun rose the next day, they discovered a terrible thing. Cao’s army did not attack the city, but they did something terrifying, that is, more than doubled their number. The city gate is closed, and the people inside naturally don’t know the situation outside the city, but the army on the city wall knows very clearly. The current situation is really a bit bad. There were hundreds of thousands of people here. , But now there are nearly 300,000 people, and all they can see are they came with heavy weapons. Cao’s family firm sent another letter today, saying that it was because the Lord Duke wasted their time. , So their conditions have improved a bit. At this time, the prince thought that some day Cao’s firm had proposed some conditions, but he didn’t read it at all. Now he hastened to ask his subordinates to bring that. One is that the Northern Empire wants to apologize to the Cao’s merchants. The second is that the five southern counties and 32 million people will be handed over to the Cao’s merchants for "escrow" due to construction problems. It was 199, and the third article was that future goods exchanges with the Western Empire had to go through the checkpoints of Cao’s House of Commodities, and each time 5% of the total goods were collected as taxes. Of course, Cao’s House of Commerce had its own obligations Yes, the beasts and bandits in this will be flattened out, in fact, there is nothing now, their army is active in this generation, and there is no beast bandit to come out, unless it is the kind of desperate guy, otherwise It won’t happen. The fourth article is to compensate Cao’s family of 7 billion silver in military expenses. This is all necessary. Now Cao’s family of companies has changed this. The first is naturally the same as the original. Similarly, the tax rate has not been raised. It is still 5% of the original rate. However, the leased city will be twice as large as the previous time. Ten counties are required, and the Cao’s commercial firm is allowed. In the Northern Empire, 100 million troops were recruited, and the compensation has reached 10 billion. People didn’t say it clearly, but in fact the muzzle told you. If you agree, this matter will be almost the same. But if you don’t agree to this thing, then I’m sorry. We might let you know why the world is in our hands. The muzzles of the people in Cao’s house are very bright. When you go up, you will feel cold all over~www.wuxiaspot.com~ These **** guys, they really regard this place as their place, and they do whatever they want. I really don’t know what they want in their minds. They all understand that some things are not so simple. If Cao’s family firm dares to raise this question, it must have its own backing. The Eastern Empire’s army still has millions in their country, everywhere. They are all in a mess. If the millions of troops of Cao’s house are allowed to attack, it is estimated that several provinces may be lost, and their losses may be more than the losses in this agreement. The Duke did not have the guts to agree to this, If he really agrees, it is estimated that if he fails to return to the capital, his head will fall off. This guy even thought of dragging him. He didn’t answer for a day, and the people from Cao’s house did nothing. It was only the third day. At that time, the number of soldiers has increased a lot, which is not a good sign.

Li Wei is still the same as before. He started exercising in the morning. The last part of his exercise was to go out riding a horse. He said it was exercise. In fact, he also used the wind to dry his sweat. When he went out to ride a horse, his uncle was pulled, and he took less than three hundred guards to the barracks of Cao’s family business. Today, he has to come out. There are no soldiers willing to go on the wall. , He must come out and say Haul, otherwise, this matter is really difficult to handle. The soldiers are afraid of death, especially when they see the artillery of Cao’s house. Own motivation. (To be continued...)
