Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 618

[Chapter 618 Honglu Temple]

“Kill him!”

A Qi soldier roared, and then the roar was like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

Their eyes seemed to be able to spurt out anger, and each of them clenched their fists tightly, wishing to rush up and beat the actor of the wealthy family to death on the spot.

If it wasn’t for the soldiers from the palace to stop them, they would have rushed up.

Zhao Xu stood on one side, and Chang Wei stood beside him with his hips akimbo, smiling like a bear who just ate honey.

“Your Highness’s trick is really effective. In the past two days, more than 6,000 Qi soldiers have begged to stay.” Chang Wei said.

He has been worrying about captives.

He felt distressed to let so many prisoners go back, so he forced them to stay, but he couldn’t.

Now, there is no need for him to stay, these Qi soldiers are crying and shouting to stay.

Waiting for the day to build a dynasty without powerful and powerful families together with the soldiers of the palace.

Zhao Xu smiled triumphantly.

Because there are too many soldiers in Qi State, only 3,000 soldiers can be arranged at a time.

The scene had been played out several times before his arrival.

In addition to the folk drama, he also asked Mi Wen to invite Qi soldiers to come to the stage to complain after the drama was over.

What suffering? Naturally, he suffered under the bullying of the wealthy clan.

The fertile land in the family was invaded by the wealthy family, and they borrowed usury loans from the wealthy family to buy food, but they couldn’t pay back, and their children were sold.

With the real case in front, the Qi soldiers will naturally be more moved, and the effect will naturally be better.

“Remember, this is a set of propaganda methods to the captives in the future, and we will introduce new ones. In this way, in future wars, our soldiers will fight more and more, while the soldiers of the wealthy clan will fight less and less.” After

a pause, he continued. : “Also, you have to cooperate with the Propaganda Department to use hot air balloon soldiers to spread leaflets across the Jin River to shake the hearts of the people.”

“Yes, Your Highness.” Chang Wei was shocked.

Zhao Xu nodded, turned his head and continued watching the show.

At this moment, a cavalry came in a hurry and handed him a document.

This document was sent by Zhou Yi. After flipping through the document, Zhao Xu’s face darkened.

Seeing this, Chang Wei asked: “Your Highness, what’s the matter?”

Zhao Xu said: “This month, Zhou Yi intermittently found that all the merchants on several merchant ships died, but the flags of black shark pirates were spread on the merchant ships.”

“Your Highness , This is someone who wants to frame the Heisha pirates.” Chang Wei immediately reacted.

“You’re right. These merchant ships belong to either Frangji or Sterdam. Obviously, someone wants to create more enemies for us.” Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes.

“Hmph, this matter was done by either the Dongying people or the Qi people. They were defeated just now, so they must be unwilling and want to cause trouble for us.” Chang Wei snorted.

Zhao Xu closed the document and walked back and forth a few steps, “No matter who it is, we must not let their plot succeed, otherwise we will carry on with this scapegoat.”

Now, his first goal is to solve Da Song Civil strife, instead of devoting energy to fighting more foreign forces.

Although, in the future, he will definitely break out of war with the Western countries because of the colonial issue.

However, due to strategic considerations, he now needs to flexibly handle relations with the Western Turks.

As far as he knew, some time ago, Dongpu had spread his threat everywhere in the East Sea.

He can no longer let Dongpu continue to stir up trouble.

Furthermore, after the launch of the twenty-four warships, he plans to expand Yanzhou’s trading partners.

With this scapegoat, the business can’t be done.

Thinking of this, he said to Chang Wei: “I will leave the matter here to you. I need to go back to Yancheng.”

King Yan’s expression was serious, Chang Wei knew it was no small matter, so he said, “Leave this to the last general.”

Leaving Pingyuan City, Zhao Xu went straight back to Yan City.

After arriving at the palace, he immediately called the envoy of Honglu Temple over.

Not long after, Dong An appeared in the study.

After returning from Jinling, Zhao Xu originally wanted Dong An and Yang He to run the Yan County Commercial Firm together.

When not together, the two are very close.

But together, they often quarrel because of different opinions.

In desperation, he decided to transfer Dong An directly to Honglu Temple as the envoy of Honglu Temple.

After all, Dong An is good at negotiating with businessmen, and sometimes there is not much difference between diplomacy and business negotiations.

Dong An can negotiate business well, so there shouldn’t be many problems with diplomacy.

“Last time you Honglu Temple did a good job of blackmailing powerful families, and this time there is another important matter to entrust to you.” Zhao Xu said to Dong An.

Since Yanzhou had little contact with other forces, there were very few affairs in Honglu Temple.

In addition to going to the government affairs school every day, the officials drink tea and chat in the government office.

Dong An had been idle for a long time and felt uncomfortable. Hearing this, he immediately became excited, “What is your Highness going to hand over to the minister?”

Zhao Xu said, “This king wants you to take some officials out to sea and go to Maer in Yizhou. Calgary explained the attack on the merchant ship, and after that, I will contact the people of Sam, the Britons, and the Franks to find out their details.” After

that, he told the story of someone framing the Black Shark pirates.

Dong An nodded, “This is really a difficult task, but I will do my best to give His Highness a satisfactory result.”

He is a restless person and doesn’t like a life as ordinary as water. Not only did this task not frighten him, but he Right to his taste.

Zhao Xu patted him on the shoulder with a dignified expression, “This task is not only arduous but also life-threatening. You have to think about it clearly. It’s too late to regret it now.

” In the long grass, I would rather go to the edge of the wind and waves to enjoy the tide, and going to sea has always been my wish in Xiaguan.” Dong An rubbed his belly, “I also want to go out and see the world.”

Zhao Xu showed a satisfied look, he Said: “I will ask Zhou Yi to dispatch two warships to escort you all the way.

This mission of yours is very important. It is basically Yanzhou’s first official diplomacy.” , stabilize the Western Turks and prevent them from intervening too much in Da Song’s affairs.”

“When discussing with them, you have to carefully judge their attitude towards Da Song and record it, so that the king can judge who can win over and who will be Our mortal enemy.”

Hearing this, Dong An silently wrote it down in his heart, and said yes.

Then he handed over some bottom lines of Yanzhou to Dong An.

Let him be able to measure when negotiating, and secondly let him act both hard and soft, without being humble.

After all, he is unwilling to start a war, but it does not mean that he is afraid of the Western Lands.

The thirty-six warships of the Yanzhou Navy are his confidence.

If they insist on being their enemies, there is no other way but to fight.

After all, these colonists did not come to the East to show kindness.

Doesn’t the contemporary Qing Dynasty want to make friends with many countries? But in fact no one wants to.

The big powers only want to draw blood and eat meat, and sometimes they will only be willing to come to the negotiating table if they hurt them.
