Chapter 179

"Oh? According to Zhongdan Hou's meaning, if the emperor rewarded enough, he would surely win the battle?" Jin Ying was a little cold about Yang Chendong's boast, but he was just a hairy boy under the age of 20. He only went to the battlefield once and rescued Yingzong Zhuqi town with the so-called advanced firearms, Can we really regard the heroes in the world as nothing and the warla army as invisible? Is this too much to see?

Jin Ying wants to attack Yang Chendong first and weaken the momentum of the other party. In the next negotiation, he can take more initiative and naturally seek more benefits.

"Yes. Ben Hou has absolute confidence." Yang Chendong answered confidently, still with a flattering smile on his face.

He can't see Jin Ying's intention, and he doesn't know that the war is ever-changing. It's supposed that you can't talk too full even if you have towering power. But this time he wanted to do the opposite. He had 100% confidence in winning the war. All this came from his confidence in the firearms in the warehouse and his absolute trust in the cold front.

I'm going to bring tea to my mouth, and then have a good look at how Yang Chendong answers his questions. As long as he says a little bit of self-confidence, that's when he chases hard. Naturally, when he talks about things, he can minimize his requirements, make a contribution in front of Zhu Qiyu, and find ways to get more benefits for himself.

But before the tea was imported, Yang Chendong had given the answer, and he was still so sure and confident. Unexpectedly, he said that he was absolutely sure that he could repel the vara army. This answer was completely beyond Jin Ying's expectation. After being stunned, he flashed a cautious light in his eyes and said, "loyal and brave Marquis, fighting is not a child's play, not just talking about it. It's to see blood killing."

"Oh, of course, I know this. When I rescued Yingzong and nine important officials at the civil castle, I also saw blood. I don't know much about the Warsaw army who died in the hands of me. This is naturally very clear." Yang Chendong smiled back at Jin Ying's question, looking so casual and confident.

"Zhongdan Hou is so confident? This time, he doesn't want to break out of the siege while the warla army doesn't pay attention, but to resist the enemy outside the country? It may face a large number of enemy troops?" Jin Ying asked in a tone of disbelief.

When the civil castle was defeated, Yang Chendong saved Yingzong and nine important ministers. But what he chose at that time was to go against the enemy, that is, instead of taking the nearest road to the capital, he first circled the enemy's empty rear. Jin Ying had the royal guards investigate this matter for a long time. It was for this reason that he thought that although the strength of mercenaries was good, they could only be a small fight. When the army fought against each other, the so-called new firearms might not be of great use.

Based on what she knows, Jin Ying does not think that mercenaries are omnipotent and invincible. But what he didn't know was that Yang Chendong intended to go to the enemy's rear instead of protecting Yingzong from the capital. He had to prepare for the co governance of the two emperors and give Zhu Qiyu enough time to do so.

Otherwise, if you really take a shortcut all the way to Beijing with the cold front, where is the current Daizong Zhu Qiyu's accession to the throne?

Of course, Yang Chendong will not explain this to anyone. Otherwise, everyone knows Sima Zhao's heart.

It is precisely because things cannot be told to others that Jin Ying misunderstood that the strength of mercenaries is only better than ordinary troops, but it is not really invincible.

Of course, there are questions to be answered. For this, Yang Chendong said with a smile: "when I said I could defeat the warla army, I can do it naturally. Of course, all this is based on how much money the emperor can give. The so-called principle that the soldiers and horses did not move and the grain and grass went first must be clear to father-in-law Jin."

"This is nature." Jin Ying nodded. Seeing that Yang Chendong was so confident, the eunuch was very curious about how many benefits he wanted when he asked about the victory or defeat of the war. "Even though Zhongdan Hou is so confident, it is certainly a great thing. The emperor and the people will be grateful to Zhongdan Hou when they really win the war, but they just don't know how much money they need?"

"I don't have to say anything to thank you. As a minister of the Ming Dynasty, it was originally one of my duties to resist the enemy outside the country. At least when it comes to the amount of silver, it's not what I wanted. It's really that mercenaries are too powerful, so it would cost a lot to ask them to do it..." Yang Chendong asked for a detailed explanation, But he was directly interrupted by Jin Ying's words, "well, we are all understanding people and smart people. We don't have to say so much about some things. Zhongdan Hou only needs to say the amount of silver. At that time, our guild will naturally report it to the emperor."

It is Jin Ying's intention to interrupt directly. At the same time, it is also transmitting a signal that everyone understands people. Don't talk about detours. Just mention how many benefits it takes to do things.

Jin Ying feels that she has seen through Zhongdan Hou. Yang Chendong doesn't explain this. There are many things to tell others with reality, and before that, nothing is in vain. In this regard, he just smiled and said: "father-in-law Jin is happy, so Ben Hou is not hypocritical. In this way, this number is needed to win this war."

As he spoke, Yang Chendong stretched out the index finger of his right hand.

"A million?" Jin Ying smiled. What a lion would Yang Chendong open his mouth? But as soon as I saw that the other party just stretched out a finger, I immediately laughed. Being young means being young. You have a small appetite and lack of concentration. You have exposed the bottom line so quickly. It's only one million taels of silver.

Hehe smiled. Jin Ying handed the tea to her mouth again, and a seemingly meaningless and slightly ironic smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Yang Chendong also smiled and was not in a hurry to explain. Until he saw Jin Ying pour tea into his mouth, he suddenly said, "I think father-in-law Jin misunderstood. It's not one million, but ten million."

"Poof!"

A mouthful of tea gushed out along the mouth as expected. Sitting opposite, Yang Chendong, who had been prepared for a long time, tilted his body casually, that is, he let the tea fly out from his side without splashing on his body.

Jin Ying didn't even ask if it was sprayed on Yang Chendong. Instead, he stared at the person in front of him. After about four or five breaths, he bit his teeth and squeezed out from his mouth word by word, "Zhongdan Hou, the benefits are not like this. Even if the capital is a little dangerous now, it is not the time for the lion to open his mouth."

Yang Chendong was reminded by his mouth, but he was secretly scolding this man's greed. If he opened his mouth, it would be 10 million. Can't he be a silver from the world? If there is 10 million, I don't know how many troops and soldiers can be trained and how many sharp teachers can be made.

"No, no, no!" Yang Chendong shook his head in front of him with the index finger of his right hand. "It's not that the lion opened his mouth, but that it really needs so much to fight. If it can't be satisfied, it doesn't matter. I don't lead the army."

Yang Chendong leaned back on his back chair. His relaxed expression seemed to say that this thing was not what he asked, but what others asked him to do. He just reluctantly did it.

Yang Chendong looked indifferent, as if he had no interest in mastering military power. In this way, Jin Ying felt that he had punched cotton.

Let Yang Chendong take the lead in the war, which is determined by the court. It can't be changed easily. Not to mention, there are really no suitable candidates except Yang Chendong. If you send one casually and lose the war, the consequences are not acceptable to everyone.

His face changed again and again. He gasped for two breaths and suppressed his anger at the bottom of his heart. Jin Ying said, "Zhongdan Hou, even if you said that the soldiers and horses did not move and the food and grass went first, is this ten million too much?"

"Not much, not much at all." seeing that Jin Ying began to face up to his request, Yang Chendong said with a light smile on his face: "I'm afraid father-in-law Jin doesn't know. This time, in order to win the war, I invited 300 more mercenaries. Adding the 100 left in the capital before, that's the number of 400. Isn't it wrong?"

"The account is calculated like this, but it won't take as much as 10 million." Jin Ying was naturally very happy when she heard that another 300 elite mercenaries came, but she still had some resistance to the figure of 10 million.

Yang Chendong didn't think so. He continued to settle the accounts and said, "four hundred mercenaries need ten thousand liang of silver for each of them. I believe Duke Jin has heard of this news."

"Yes, although the price of 10000 taels of silver per person is very high, they can reluctantly accept it if they really have great combat power. But even so, it's only 4 million taels. How can you get 10 million taels?" Jin Ying hurriedly retorted.

"Don't worry, father-in-law Jin. When I've finished all the accounts, are you talking?" Yang Chendong showed a trace of unhappiness on his face. He must be unhappy when someone is always interrupted by others.
