"Master Cao, the Western Empire was originally very powerful among the four empires. Both the human and the geographical advantage of the Western Empire were the upper hand." Tuoba Zhiqiu used these words as his opening remarks. To be honest, the terrain of the Western Empire is relatively high. Only he attacked others. If other empires attacked them, they would suffer a bit. Moreover, even if other countries occupied the Western Empire, they might not be able to stand the altitude sickness above. Yes, so no matter how fierce the other empire wars are over the years, the Western Empire’s wars are relatively small. This also makes the Western Empire’s aristocratic class lose the original desire to be aggressive, they just want to enjoy comfort Life, these years, luxury goods are the fastest selling things in the Western Empire, as for other defenses and other things, they have not been sold at all.
"But now it's different from before. The Western Empire is not aggressive at all at all. The Western Empire is now rotten from top to bottom. Last year, the peasants of the Western Empire were already uprising. More than five times, we won’t count those small ones. These are all uprisings that have spread to more than five provinces, but the upper level of the Western Empire simply cannot see these. They think there are thousands of lines in the Western Empire. There are only a few civil unrest in the province. This is a very normal thing. They don’t think this will have any bad effect on their notification foundation.” Tuoba Zhiqiu said with a bit of heartache, their Tuoba family is in the West. The empire is also deeply entrenched. If the Western Empire collapses at this time, they will not do any good. According to the current situation, it is not a problem for the Western Empire to last for a hundred years. Why did they take such a step?Could it be that their Tuoba family is not what it seems?They have a problem?
"Mr. Tuoba, with all due respect, the Tuoba family is also a well-known sign in the Western Empire. You shouldn’t tell me these words. In fact, from my point of view, if your Tuoba family helps the imperial family to overcome this crisis, , I think you may get better progress, instead of talking about this here." Li Cong said directly.He is very interested in this, but this thing himself is still a little unavailable at present, things in a few provinces are okay, an empire, hundreds of billions of people, what ability does he have?I have never led so many people, and this Tuoba family is an old fox.What they want to do is mixed in by themselves, and whether they can die well in the end is also a question.
"Master Cao said the same. If we hadn't come to help from outsiders before, our relationship with the imperial royal family can be said to be very good. Since my ancestors, we have been relatives with the imperial royal family. We married. There are countless princesses, and there are several girls in our family who are queens, but now our family can’t cooperate with the emperor. The emperor has seen that our Tuoba family can’t get rid of the big tail. Now our Tuoba family’s power is already direct. Mastered dozens of provinces in the entire empire, and indirectly controlled hundreds of them. It can be said that one-tenth of the power of the empire has been in our hands. The ten most elite armies of the empire, our Tuoba family has two , The emperor is already determined to get rid of us. We also have our own spies in the palace. If the emperor doesn’t do that, we won’t come out to seek help.” Tuoba Zhiqiu directly said this. Up.From this, Li Cong could also see that their problem was really imminent. If it weren't, he would not tell his own problems. This would expose his shortcomings.
Speaking of this, Li Cong really accompanies the Tuoba family a bit, and at the same time is a bit puzzled.How did the imperial family of the Western Empire deal with things? How could it make such a behemoth that can do it right? This is simply a fool's behavior. As the emperor of the Western Empire, you can reuse anyone, but absolutely It is not possible to reuse a family in this way, a family must either develop in the political circle.Either you develop in the military and want to have a future on both sides, then such a family is absolutely not allowed to be retained, you must kill such a family, so that all aspects of development are thoughts about your empire .
"Mr. Tuoba, to be honest, I didn't even think about the matter you mentioned before. It seems to me is really a bit far away, and you know it. Now my strength with you The difference is too big. I’m just a businessman. This thing is far away from me. I think it’s better for you to find someone else to do this thing. Of course, we are very particular about what we do. I’ll tell you about this.” Li Cong said, indeed, judging from the strength that Li has revealed from the surface now, the plan with the Tuoba family is really not enough. First of all, we are not good at it. , I don’t have the ability to help you. The second thing is that the Western Empire is still far away. Even if you can succeed, we won’t have any foundation at that time. How big can you give us?Even if you don't give it, I can do anything. At that time, you have the strength of the entire empire, and I am a small businessman, and I can't do anything to you.
Tuoba Zhiqiu has seen a lot of people. He thought he would definitely agree to Li Cong when he said the plan. Although he met Li Cong very few times and didn't talk a lot, he could see it. Li Cong, this guy will definitely not look like this. Li Cong is definitely a very ambitious person. He has seen too many ambitious people. Those ambitious people have no strength, such people. It won’t happen in a lifetime, but the person in front of him is different. Although this guy is far from the Tuoba family in terms of overall strength, this guy has what the Tuoba family needs. Maybe this thing can make Tuoba. The Ba family saved everything, this thing is Li Cong's airship, which is why Tuoba Zhiqiu came here in person.
"Master Cao is really too modest. In fact, we all know Master Cao's abilities. Let's not talk about Master Cao's powerful master. Even Master Cao himself is very unique. Look at Master Cao's appearance this year. No matter how old he is, there is such a big family business. When the first patriarch of our Tuoba family was at the age of Mr. Cao, he could only make our Tuoba family mix well in a county. But looking at Mr. Cao now, the business has been achieved in two empires, involving dozens of provinces, and at least 5 billion people are related to Mr. Cao’s business. Such achievements are not comparable to ordinary people." Ba Zhiqiu basically doesn't flatter.But when flattering, it was very good. It was definitely just right. Li Cong was also a normal person. He was very happy to hear these compliments, but it still didn't show it on the surface. After all, Li Cong Now I don’t know what people think of me. Let’s not say that people think we are handsome.This handsome looks can be said to be useless in the fight for the empire, it must be Li Cong who has what they need.Otherwise they would not come to Li Cong.
"Mr. Tuoba's words directly made me a little bit of a loss, so I don't want to say that in the future, otherwise I will soon feel like I am a very successful person." Li Cong smiled. Said, since you didn’t say anything, it’s better to be honest if we don’t know what is false or true. Li never wanted to say the rest, or honestly see what the old guy means. Sometimes you can. Speak directly.But sometimes you have to start testing slowly like this.
After half an hour, Tuoba Zhiqiu was really convinced. This Li Cong can talk to himself about the abilities of a cook in his family from military affairs, but he just doesn't talk about his cooperation with him. This guy plays Tai Chi. If you want to say that boxing is second, no one dares to recognize the first. This guy is really amazing, and this guy often doesn't know what to say.But when it comes to speaking, you have to continue to follow. This is purely a waste of time, but Li Cong doesn’t seem to leave at all. He still speaks with Mr. Tuoba honestly here. This is telling you that you still have to Firstly.Finally, after forty minutes, Mr. Tuoba really couldn't bear it. He wanted to tell the story of the cooperation. This kid is indeed very good in terms of endurance.
"Master Cao, in fact, this time we have planned to expand the family for a long time. If Master Cao is unwilling to join us, I wonder if we can borrow something from Master Cao. Of course, we will pay for it, absolutely I won’t let Master Cao suffer.” The main event is finally here, do you think Li Cong is very comfortable talking nonsense here? It is indeed a very comfortable thing to talk to ordinary people, but with such a person it is No, this guy in front of me is an authentic old fox. Talking to such a person?If you don't have that interest, you may be able to grasp your own weaknesses. If an ordinary person's brain turns a hundred times a minute, such a guy will have at least hundreds of times a minute.
"Borrowing things? Of course it's okay. Mr. Tuoba just said it directly. As long as it's something that someone has, you can use it directly. It doesn't matter whether it is paid or not." Li Cong proudly Speaking, of course, Tuoba Zhiqiu is not so naive, thinking that Li Cong will really do voluntary work with him. Such things will never happen. It would be good for someone like Li Cong to hear half of his speech, Li Cong. Since they knew that they had the new things they didn't have, the most useful thing was probably the airship, and they should just need that thing.
"Master Cao is really refreshing, so I don't want to hide it, so I just said it straight, our Tuoba family needs something that can fly in the sky from Master Cao, and we need a lot of that. Something helped us to transport the manpower into the capital.” Tuoba Zhiqiu said directly, and Li said from his heart that it was this thing. Why did the Tuoba family transport manpower to the capital?
"Mr. Tuoba is really hard for me. This thing is now under my management, but there is also an authority behind me. To be honest, this authority is not something I have the final say. You have also seen this airship. The staff on the Internet are all fixed. Ordinary people don’t know how to open this thing. This thing is made by the people of my master. I just help them with their affairs. The fuel and so on are all talents of alchemists. I don’t have that big right to get things out. If the number is small, I can help with a dozen or twenty ships. I guess the Tuoba family will have a lot of books if they use it. My teacher There may be some troubles over there, this old man... alas, it’s a bit embarrassing to say it, it’s rude and rude, I shouldn’t say that about my master, this old man is very profitable, he and me, of course, He won't talk about money, but if he is handed over to him, which one is not bankrupt, there is not enough profit. I think it is not so simple to ask him to build so many airships." Li Cong said with some embarrassment.This kind of thing naturally needs more benefits. Li Cong also wants to get his own benefits from the great changes in the Western Empire. This way of participation is the best. If the Western Empire fails, he will be the most. It's just that some airships are lost. If they succeed, because of their own master, this benefit is absolutely indispensable.
Tuoba Zhiqiu glanced at Li Cong in surprise.The intelligence of their family showed that Li Cong would never be loyal to anyone, but he didn't expect to say something like this from Li Cong's mouth.Soon, Tuoba Zhiqiu believed Li Cong's words. No matter how genius Li Cong is, he is just a young man. He can have his own skills, but if he wants to have such a huge asset, he absolutely needs a strong background. , Is this background finally coming to the surface? It seems that the Tuoba family can also be the first to know. If they can cooperate with such an organization, things in the Western Empire should be no problem.
"Actually, if my master is willing to help you with your affairs, I will tell you that it must have succeeded for more than half of the time. The facts of that old guy are very powerful, but my master is getting older and much older. He has a strange temper. For example, he doesn’t talk to anyone except me and a few brothers. He talks to outsiders with hundreds of people. It’s a pity that he said that last time when he came out. The original one was very simple. Things have not become more complicated than my master’s participation.” This Tuoba Zhiqiu’s eyes rolled around for a while and Li Cong knew what he meant, and quickly blocked the road. This kind of thing cannot be opened. At that time, it would be okay to play the two corners by himself, but he was an empty frame, and he didn't have such a great ability at all.If this is revealed, not only will this event fail, but even more terribly, my own safety will also be a problem. I am now a kid holding a golden rooster, and there are more people who want to do it myself. There are a few who dared to do it, not looking at the old guy behind him, if there wasn't that old guy.I didn't know how many times I died.
Tuoba Zhiqiu followed with a sigh. He would naturally not believe Li Cong’s remarks. There was no truth in this kid’s mouth, but there was no other way at the moment, but Li Cong did not say anything. The road is blocked. Didn’t people say that, as long as there is enough interest, it’s all right. Listen to the sound. With so much nonsense just now, you can know this now. As long as there is enough interest, what is the matter? It's all possible. It seems that I have come up with a big price.
"Master Cao, in fact, it's okay to believe that everything is aging, but there is no suitable entry point. Master Cao also said just now, isn't your Master's very profitable? In this case, I can talk about it. Yes, our Tuoba family has accumulated amazing wealth over the years. These things are of no use to us. There may have been some embellishment effects in the past, but now, if our Tuoba family is gone, Sooner or later, those things belong to others." When Tuoba Zhiqiu said this, he was a bit vicissitudes of life, as if he was a dying old man. Li would never be deceived by these few words. This old guy has such a face. Thick, who knows which sentence is true and which sentence is false, we don't have the intention to listen.
"Hehe, Mr. Tuoba is fine to say so, let's say it clearly, how many people do you need to transport at once, or how many airships I need to send." At this time, the negotiation has basically become clear, and Li Cong is also very clear. I didn’t ask them what they were doing. I was a transport captain at that time. As for other things, it had nothing to do with me. Li Cong didn’t want to know so many things. In Li Cong’s view, these things are not something he can do. To mix things up, it’s better to be honest. This sentence should not only be kept in mind, but more importantly, it should be placed on your usual work.
"Master Cao is really refreshing. We need to transport more than 50,000 soldiers, including their war horses." Zhiqiu Tuoba thought for a while and said, which also surprised Li Cong, shit. This old guy regards himself as something. Even if there is no horse, these 50,000 soldiers are not a small number. If an airship pulls people, it can hold 500 people. This one hundred airships are really enough. Yes, after adding their horses and equipment, it is estimated that another 100 might not be enough. Now all the airships in Li Cong’s hand add up to less than two hundred, so I don’t just do anything for them. It's not enough, it's about sacrificing all of your business.There is not much in Li Cong's space ring. If it is sent from the earth, it will be nothing. It's just that this pilot is not easy to find, and it is difficult to train without a few months of training.
"This is not impossible, but I need time, and I must give me three months, otherwise I can't get these things out." Li Cong said categorically.Since I lent them the airship, I would definitely do it for them, and Li has never offered his price.Want money?That's impossible. I don’t know how much money I have. What I want is territory, autonomy, power, and the right not to be controlled.
Three months?Tuoba Zhiqiu's face began to hesitate. To tell the truth, even if the negotiation on Li Cong's side fails, they will still have other ideas, and there are still a lot of preparations. After all, many people in such big families are Doing things at the same time.It is absolutely impossible to hang from a tree. They would not do such a thing, but they also analyzed all the plans. It seems that only Li Cong’s is the safest, and the success rate is also the highest. .
They wanted to occupy the entire capital of the Western Empire as soon as the incident broke out. The Tuoba family now has 30,000 armed men in the capital, but there are at least 500,000 armed forces in the capital.Among them, they can handle only 50,000 people at most, plus their own 30,000 people, which is 80,000 people. It can't be considered as a large proportion. If Li Cong could transport 50,000 people in without knowing it. If this is the case, this will have a great chance of winning, and half of the remaining troops will be in the hands of the royal family.Others are in the hands of the big family. When things happen, the Tuoba family can at least get a lot. As for the rest of the country, the Tuoba family has its own preparations, but if you want to swallow it, it’s not so good. Simple things.
This calculation is very good, but three months is not in my own hands. You must know that the royal family has begun to take care of the Tuoba clan. Now the Tuoba clan younger generations are being suppressed everywhere. .Several big families that are in conflict with the Tuoba clan have already received strong support, but the Tuoba clan has been suppressed in various places. In the last month, the Tuoba clan has more than 30 young people. The children have been hit in various ways. Some have lost their lives, and some have lost their official positions. There is no conspiracy. The children of the big family are all conspiracy. It is absolutely impossible if it is clean, so as long as you can find the handle of these people, they are all caught.
"Master Cao, it is true that I may not have the ability to delay time anymore. If I can, I think there will be two months at most." Tuoba Zhiqiu said with some embarrassment, no Knowing that when talking about these things, this guy’s heart is also very tragic. Such things are very tragic for anyone. They don’t know that Tuoba’s heart actually wants to continue to be this prominent nobleman. They rebelled because of the royal family. They had no intention of rebelling. You must know that after the rebellion, the glory of Tuoba for thousands of years will be lost. Even if you win, in the future There will also be many wrongs in the people's minds, and many people will say that they are the rebels.
Two months?Li Cong frowned his brows. This cycle is a bit too short. There is no problem on his side, but these guys have problems. These guys can complete it after studying to work overtime for two months. But after they arrived in the sky, they didn’t have so much time to adapt. Thinking of this, Li Cong was also very worried. If the loss of one ship is then hundreds of lives, forget it, just do it, die. It’s not my own person. Do you feel so distressed about Gansen? Besides, let these skilled people come and pick up the army at that time. As for those who are unskilled who can transport their horses, even if these horses are lost, they don’t feel so distressed. Yes, with the skills of the Tuoba family, the horse can be quickly supplemented.
"Mr. Tuoba, I will tell you the truth. In fact, three months is already a very urgent matter for me, but I have always been very considerate of my allies. It’s a problem, but it’s hard to say in terms of safety. My plan is to let my skilled hands to transport people. As for those war horses, let my unfamiliar people transport them. I can guarantee percent All eighty weapons and equipment can arrive on time." At this time, Li Cong was a little bragging. You can't give them any guarantee at the moment.It can only be a storyteller.
"Well, if this is the case, it can only be so. I don't know if Master Cao has any other thoughts. If there are any, just say it directly. Our Tuoba family will definitely go and make Master Cao satisfied." Tuoba Zhiqiu also knew that it was time to bargain with Li Cong. Before, he told Li Cong that money was definitely not a problem, but he also hoped that this kid would not overcharge too harshly.If that's the case, maybe this kid will be killed, and then this kid's things will be his own.
"Haha. Actually, money is useless to you, and it's useless to me. Although I have a lot of requirements on your side, they are useless. This is the most useful one." Li Cong smiled He took out a map and said that Li Cong’s fingers were on the Atta River Plain in the southern part of the Western Empire. There is sufficient irrigation water here. The cultivated land here can be said to be the largest place in the entire empire. Work here The number of slaves exceeds tens of millions.They fight vigorously every day and then lazy vigorously. These people have this problem. No wonder this country will fall so quickly.
The Atta River Plain?Tuoba Zhiqiu cursed Li Cong vigorously in his own heart. You will choose a place. There are tens of millions of farmers and millions of floating population around here. It is also the largest in the entire southern region. A high-yield food, if this is given to leave by the people of the Northern Empire.So if this kid wants to rebel in the future, he will have to fail with the Fa?
"Master Cao, can you change a place? In fact, this is the largest reservoir on the border of our department, and the farming area is also very large. Master Cao is not going to kill me here." Ba Zhiqiu looked at Li Cong with some horror, and just watched it for about a minute.It is certain that this kid really hasn't changed, but he doesn't hold his breath anymore.
Li Cong smiled and shook his head. I've been thinking about this place for a long time. It can be said that this place is a grain base. It can produce so much grain without its own seeds. If it is replaced in the future For my own grain seeds, there are nearly 2 billion mu of land in the whole province that can be transformed into cultivated land.Moreover, the terrain of such a basin is also very defensible. There is a place where Li Cong is ready to develop. Such a place is so easy for Li Cong to find. How could it be so easy to give up? Now there is the management of the Tuoba family. It is estimated that it can be renamed in the future.
Although Li Cong also has many farms all over the country, they are not concentrated in one place. It is impossible for Li Cong to want large-scale local food, and he must need such a large piece of land.
"Hehe, Master Cao’s vision is really vicious. You can see it in such a place, and Master Cao’s courage is also very big. To be honest, this place is also very important for our Tuoba family. It is more important than the ancestral grave of our Tuoba family. The grain output here can be supplied to several provinces around us. We really don’t want to lose this place.” Tuoba Zhiqiu is still sitting on the last effort, but unfortunately Li Cong is definitely not a person who can change his mind in a few words, he is tragic.
The Ata River province is really the same as Tuoba Zhiqiu said. The emperors of the Western Empire also liked this place very much. A large river runs through the territory, which solves the problem of agricultural water use and is surrounded by a circle. The mountains, all of which are plains, are absolutely easy to defend and difficult to attack. Such a place is not safe in anyone's hands. It can only be done in their own hands. In fact, the Tuoba family was also established here. It’s a huge base, so it’s really reluctant to give it to Li Cong. This condition really makes the Tuoba family embarrassed. On the one hand, it is the foundation for success, and the other is the foundation of the family. The two foundations collide. It is not so easy to distinguish things together, and many times they can only be pondered slowly.
"Hehe, Mr. Tuoba is a wise man. It is very important to the Tuoba family, but you will have a bigger place in the future. According to my estimation, if this turmoil can follow the rules of your Tuoba family. If you do, I think you can at least get dozens or even hundreds of provinces. Although the Western Empire will be chaotic, you will still be the biggest princes and kings, and you can eat them one by one. Now Ah The Ta River is important to you, and the Atta River will not be so important to you in the future, and I also contributed a lot this time. I just need an Atta River. I think all this is worth it." Li Cong He said while drinking tea, anyway, this meat didn't fall from his own device, so it didn't hurt much.Anyone can talk cold words, and you can’t help it if you are uncomfortable.After all, this is the same here, isn't it?There must be benefits.
Tuoba Zhiqiu can call the shots in the Tuoba clan, even big things can be the shots, but is this possible now?There is a huge province with a population of nearly 200 million and more than 35 large counties and cities. This is the result of the efforts of the Tuoba clan for many years, and the people there are also very happy. To be honest, even if there are frequent peasant uprisings in other places, it is still very quiet there.These people are tamed like a sheep. Even if such a place comes out in the future, it will not be so easy to make human lives that way. The Western Empire is about to fall into chaos. There are these meek people. A very lucky thing, if the people under the rule are all gangs of Zibiaozi, it is estimated that these people will start to fish in troubled waters when the empire is in chaos.They are not friendly people either.
What Li Cong said was right. According to current estimates, they only mastered one-tenth of the Western Empire. This is already very powerful. After this turmoil, they are estimated to be able to control about one-fifth. No one can say such a number.If these people can be sure of the huge gains, they would definitely be interested in Li Cong’s proposal, but what is terrible now is that this matter is not that simple. What if the place is handed over, there will be no more in the future? Do it?
"Master Cao, do you think this is okay? We can hand it over to you, but for the time being, it's better to let our force help you watch it. Master Cao is now unstable. You know that a province exceeds 200 million. It is so difficult for people to watch. If there is not so much force to watch, everything is in the middle of the mirror, and many things are not that simple." The old guy said as he rolled his eyes. When such words came out, this thing is really good. This guy wants to be like this. Li Cong smiled. Indeed, if he really doesn’t have any armed forces, this province will be handed over to himself, and sooner or later he will. Li has already thought about this for a long time.
"Hehe, you don't need to bother about this. Why don't we go to one of my bases together?" Li Cong said with a smile. The impression of his own armed forces is very weak. For people, it seems like a consensus. Short legs and short arms really can’t do many things, such as this one in front of you.
Tuoba Zhiqiu nodded. Although he didn't know what Li Cong was going to take with him to see, this guy also understood that things were not that simple. He felt uncomfortable no matter how he walked. It should be Li Cong next. Let yourself see things.
That place is not very far from where Li Cong lives. It will take a while. This is the place where Li Cong specializes in experiments. It is basically mature now. After entering, he brought Tuoba Zhiqiu to the podium. After Li gave an order, nearly a thousand people came out in the surrounding huts. Tuoba Zhiqiu was dumbfounded. Damn, the worst of these people were all level five fighters, and the most powerful was level six. Soldiers, according to the rules in the army, the men and horses leading the first battalion must be level six fighters. There are at least dozens of them. A battalion can be 16,000 or 000. Li Cong can form nearly one million in an instant. Although it’s a bit hard to manage more than 200 million people in a province like this, it’s definitely okay anyway. It’s harder to be embarrassed. It’s much better than no army. Li Cong’s excuse is so ruthless. Was interrupted.
"Hehe, this is only part of my armed forces. In the next two months, there will be successive brothers coming to help me. The number of people will be more than twice as large." Li Cong said confidently. The mental power of this is different from before. This medicinal material can be refined as long as it is enough. As for ordinary people, it is even more so. The most indispensable in this world are ordinary people, even though they Eating this thing is very risky, but they are willing to do everything for the future.
"Master Cao really surprised me. It turns out that our understanding of Master Cao is all wrong. I can't do this. I need to contact Tuoba's family. Please trouble Master Cao to help me arrange an airship. There will definitely be news back within a month." Tuoba Zhiqiu didn't dare to talk nonsense at this time. Now he has seen all of Li Cong's strength. This time is not the time to make a random promise. It's definitely not something that you can decide by yourself in a few words, you still need the consent of your family.
Li Cong nodded, he had to give people a reaction time, and he also needed time. If he wanted to cooperate with them, he had to make himself decent. In fact, Li Cong lied just now. So far, I have only so many people, and there are more, but they are all ordinary people, and I can’t get so many fifth-level fighters, and Li Cong is very lacking in senior fighters. There are only a few dozen soldiers above the level. If it weren't for the master Li Cong created to support it, someone would have come to attack him.
Tuoba Zhiqiu stayed here for less than twenty-four hours and then went back. He came and went in a hurry. He found a strong ally. This was very happy, but on the other hand, he was very unhappy. Comfortable, because before, I only wanted to give five yuan, but now because the strength of the ally has increased, I have to give ten or even twenty yuan to balance this ally. I used to think The thing is that even if it is given to Li Cong a lot, it can still be taken back in the future. It seems that it is not that simple now. It is impossible to take it back. If it angers his master, it will even occupy five points of the Western Empire. One of them will suffer as well, and this kid's own ability is also very powerful.(To be continued.
