Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 918
At this banquet, almost everyone discussed the mysterious oriental kingdom.

Dugu Lanruo's long dress made the noble ladies in the whole Mediterranean feel like they were wearing rags, so when Dugu Lanruo made an excuse to leave the venue, Hiracle kept the people around her away.

The three big men sat together around a small round table, and the men also left with interest.

The entire banquet hall was suddenly empty, and the guards of the palace began to distance themselves, leaving the entire banquet hall to Liu Mu, Heraclius, and Tullius.

"Does Sasan really want peace?" Heraclius spoke first, with a questioning tone.

Turius asked back: "One year after we just ceased fighting, where are Gassani and Ramh?"

What's the meaning?Willow didn't understand at all.

Chirac took a deep breath and turned to Liu Mu: "Two years ago, our two countries had just ceased fighting for a year, and the Arab Saracen Kingdom sent troops. Before that, they continued to expand from a small state, and their territory was more Bigger and bigger, they sent troops this time, and I lost the Kingdom of Gassani in Eastern Rome."

Turius said beside him: "Our Sasan Kingdom lost Ramh, and last year we lost Bahrain. Right now..."

Turius didn't go on, but looked at Heraclius.

Heraclius nodded slightly: "That's right, we sense the danger, and Damascus seems to be in Saracen's conspiracy."

Liu Mu held his forehead with one hand. In the history of the world in Liu Mu's memory, it should have been in [-] A.D. that the Arab Empire began to invade Byzantium and the Persian Empire in an all-round way, and they won consecutive battles.

It seems that the first piece of land that Byzantium lost was Damascus.

"No." Liu Mu shook his head: "According to your majesty, half of my Suez port and the surrounding land of a hundred miles are very dangerous."

Chirac slightly pointed to Turius, obviously asking Turius to explain the intention of giving Liumu a heavy gift first.

"I need your army with only 800 people, which killed 2 elite enemy troops without dying."

Hearing that [-] killed [-] people without killing one person, this statistic startled Chirac a little. In his mind, it was an absolutely impossible statistic.

But Tullius said it very seriously, and Heraclius couldn't help but not believe it.

"This matter, that army does not belong to me right now. It is the Imperial Guard of the Tang Emperor, and the number is no longer only 800."

Turius asked: "Stronger?"

Liu Mu didn't answer, nor did he answer.

The route of the Red Sea is very important. This is Datang’s money bag route. If there is no Red Sea, the whole of Africa needs to be bypassed. The cost is too huge and the time consumption is too long.

Once Eastern Rome, Persia and the Arab Empire go to war in an all-out way, the Arab Empire will definitely attack the Red Sea trading fleet with the Eastern Roman Empire, and their own losses will not be small.

Thinking of this, Liu Mu asked: "Benefits, helping you fight the war, my benefits."

"what would you like?"

"I want one-tenth of the booty. For every hundred miles of land I conquer, I want a hundred Arabian war horses, real war horses. Also, Persian merchants must obey the dispatch of my Great Tang General Ship during the war. When transporting war supplies, they can't push back and forth."

Before Liu Mu finished speaking, Turius made a statement on the merchant issue: "If any merchant is disobedient, as long as he does not serve the war, all property can be confiscated, and the whole family can become a slave."

"Okay, then I will write to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and call out 3000 elite guards. I guarantee that each of these 3000 people will be stronger than the previous 800 people. From the 3000 people, randomly select 550 people to win the battle." The 800 people you know, this is my Great Tang Imperial Guard, the elite of the elite."

"Okay." Turius almost roared.

"But!" Liu Mu's no-nonsense made Turius nervous.

Liu Mu said: "I will not let these 3000 people go to the battlefield easily. I will transfer them here and I will help you train a group of real elites. Give me half a year, and the trained people can reach the level of the previous 800 people. Equipment, I I will send you equipment for 3000 people in return for the gifts you gave me, and you can buy more with coins or exchange them with loot.”

"it is good."

Heraclius asked at this time: "800 people, kill [-] elites without dying? This is amazing."

Turius told Heraclius what he saw and heard with his own eyes after he went to Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, and specifically mentioned: "This extremely powerful army, their infantry is invulnerable, and no one has been found. One weapon can hurt them. The light cavalry is so fast, only they attack the enemy, and the enemy has no chance to counterattack. Beyond the reach of the heavy cavalry, there is only complete crushing."

"I want it too. I'll give you..." Heraclitus said after thinking for a moment, "One hundred thousand gold coins."

Datang's small gold coins are one coin, and one coin of Datang is approximately equal to 3.125 grams of later generations.There are two types of Byzantine gold coins, the small gold coin is equivalent to [-] grams, and the large gold coin is equivalent to [-] grams.

The gold coins made by Liu Mu for Eastern Rome are the same size as the Tang gold coins, which are the small gold coins of the Tang Dynasty.

One hundred thousand gold coins is one hundred thousand guan.

"Okay, let's send someone to discuss some details. There is a saying in the Tang Dynasty that the villain is first and the gentleman is second. It means that the first thing that cares about the gains and losses is the first, and then the friendship."

"can."

Both Heraclius and Tullius agreed.

A banquet turned into an alliance meeting. In order to ensure his own business routes, Liumu will absolutely kill all possible enemies.

Complicated negotiations are naturally left to professionals.

For the interests of the Tang Dynasty, for the interests of the Roman Empire, and for the interests of the Sasan Kingdom.

A marathon negotiation was held in the city of Athens on the training of soldiers, the provision of equipment, the price of strategic materials, the distribution of spoils, the conversion of the price of seized land resources, etc.

Negotiations are negotiations. Turius has rushed back to Sassan, and he will personally select [-] to [-] strong soldiers and send them to Athens for training.

Heraclius also secretly summoned troops and selected strong soldiers for training.

And Liu Mu also sent someone to bring his secret letter back to Chang'an with the fleet.

For the gold coins, Heraclius did not give Liu Mu a single word of the one hundred thousand gold coins that Heraclius promised. He paid part of it with goods and slaves, and the rest would rather pay interest than take the spoils of war.However, the money for the equipment was happily given to Liu Mu as an upfront fee of [-] gold coins.

In the city of Athens, Liu Mu still lives like an uncle here, where he is the biggest.

The most senior officials in the city of Athens would come to pay a polite visit every three days. For Liumu’s daily necessities, there were only things Liumu didn’t want, and nothing they were unwilling to find for Liumu.

　I know, I was wrong.

　　It is estimated that he was scolded miserably, miserably, miserably.
