Comprehensive martial arts: start with a fire dragon ball

After meeting Li Jiancheng's gaze, Chu Wanxin immediately gave him a gentle smile.

Of course Chu Wanxin would not be unaware of the "internal and external troubles" Li Jiancheng was facing at this time.

After all, Chu Wanxin was deeply impressed by the famous "Xuanwu Sect" in his previous life.

Therefore, Chu Wanxin once specifically told his spies to pay close attention to the brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin.

It can be said that Li Jiancheng had just obtained Li Yuan's consent and was about to leave for "Luoyang", and Chu Wanxin had already learned the ins and outs.

Therefore, Chu Wanxin had previously discussed with a number of important ministers in the court about the results of Li Jiancheng's trip.

The final conclusion, of course, was to agree to send troops to assist.

However, although they must agree to send troops, they cannot agree so quickly.

After all, there are not many opportunities for such a good harvest.

Anyway, sooner or later, there will be a life-and-death battle between "Da Chu" and "Li Tang".

Now that he has encountered the opportunity to weaken "Li Tang", Chu Wanxin will certainly not let it go.

As a result, in the next few days, the "Da Chu" court was divided into two groups, and a fierce quarrel began over "whether to send troops to assist."

Li Jiancheng, on the other hand, left early and returned late every day, carrying a large amount of belongings and visiting everywhere non-stop.

But what Li Jiancheng couldn't have imagined was that half of the property he gave away fell into Chu Wanxin's hands.

The remaining half actually fell into the hands of the person he gave it to.

"Tsk, tsk, this Li family is indeed one of the four great lords of the Sui Dynasty. It has a profound background and countless rare treasures!!!"

Looking through the belongings sent by his men, Chu Wanxin sighed to the women beside him.

"Hee hee, Brother Chu, you are really taking advantage of him and still have to act like a good boy. No matter how deep the Li family's background is, I am afraid that he will be squeezed by you this time and will shed a layer of his skin."

After listening to Chu Wanxin's words, Huang Rong suddenly laughed and said.

The other girls couldn't help but smile when they heard this.

Because they understood that what Huang Rong said was true.

Although the things Li Jiancheng gave away were precious, they were just appetizers.

Once Chu Wanxin opens his mouth and agrees to send troops to assist, "Li Tang" will take the initiative to spend a greater price to thank "Da Chu".

At that time, it was not something that could be done with just a few belongings.

………………

Li Jiancheng didn't have to wait long. After all, things were changing rapidly on the battlefield.

If "Li Tang" is really destroyed by "Great Qin", this is not what Chu Wanxin wants to see.

When Li Jiancheng's belongings were almost exhausted, Chu Wanxin summoned him again.

"Li Jiancheng of the Tang Dynasty, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of Chu!!!"

As soon as he saw Chu Wanxin appear, Li Jiancheng bowed respectfully.

From beginning to end, it was calm and calm, without showing the slightest hint of anxiety or restlessness.

"Your Highness, please rise!!!"

"Come here, give me a seat!!!"

With a flash of admiration for Li Jiancheng's Qi-nurturing achievements in his eyes, Chu Wanxin spoke gently.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!!!"

After getting up and sitting on the seat moved by the young eunuch, Li Jiancheng turned his gaze to Chu Wanxin who was looking up, waiting for his speech. "I agree to His Highness the Crown Prince's request, but I don't know what price Li Tang can pay for it?"

"This will determine the intensity of Da Chu's assistance to Li Tang."

There was no nonsense, Chu Wanxin started asking for benefits outright.

In this regard, Li Jiancheng did not show any displeasure.

After all, this is a very normal thing.

"Your Majesty, as long as Da Chu is willing to send troops to help, Li Tang is willing to form a permanent alliance with Da Chu and never invade."

Listening to Li Jiancheng's words, Chu Wanxin nodded noncommittally and said nothing.

After all, this so-called covenant is no different from waste paper and is completely supported by the credibility of both parties.

From ancient times to the present, not only a thousand but also eight hundred such covenants have been torn apart.

Therefore, what Li Jiancheng said was just a dispensable procedure, and the next words would be the focus.

Li Jiancheng was also well aware of this.

Therefore, he did not continue to beat around the bush and directly revealed the conditions that he had discussed with Li Yuan before he came.

"As long as your Majesty sends troops to support you, we are willing to pay 3000 million taels of silver in one lump sum, and all the food and grass for the troops sent by Chu will be provided by Datang."

When Chu Wanxin heard about 3000 million taels of silver, she didn't feel anything.

After all, although this amount of money is a lot, it is nothing to the "Da Chu" who occupies the prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River.

However, when Li Jiancheng said that the food and grass for the troops sent by "Da Chu" were supplied by "Li Tang", he suddenly raised his eyebrows in surprise.

As the saying goes: Once the cannon goes off, there is a thousand taels of gold!

In a war, the most important things are food, grass and ordnance. Sometimes, they are even more important than soldiers.

For an army of tens of thousands, the number of people eating horse chews every day is an astronomical figure, not to mention the constant consumption.

"Li Tang" was able to put forward such a condition, which can be said to be using his own money to support Chu Wanxin's troops. He was indeed very sincere.

However, although Chu Wanxin was very moved, he did not express it clearly.

After all, he was the one taking the initiative at this time, and of course he needed to continue to wait for the price to see if he could continue to get something from "Li Tang".

Sure enough, seeing Chu Wanxin remaining silent, Li Jiancheng gritted his teeth secretly, and then said: "Not only that, we are also willing to marry Princess Pingyang to your majesty, so that both parties can form a good relationship between Qin and Jin."

"And Chi County will also be incorporated into the territory of Dachu as Princess Pingyang's dowry."

Listening to Li Jiancheng's words, a smile suddenly appeared on Chu Wanxin's face.

Not to mention the beauty Li Xiuning, just the fact that "Li Tang" took "Chi County" as a dowry was enough to make Chu Wan's heart flutter.

Although this "Chi County" is called a county, its territory is vast and not weaker than some small cities.

But compared to its size, what attracted Chu Wanxin more was its unique geographical location.

"Chi County" is located in the border area between "Da Chu" and "Li Tang", and is in the middle of two mountains, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Obtaining "Chi County" is equivalent to obtaining a door that can be advanced, attacked, retreated and defended.

Even Chu Wanxin didn't expect that "Li Tang" would be willing to give up such an important place as "Chi County" in order for Chu Wanxin to send troops as soon as possible.

However, since "Li Tang" dared to give it away, then of course Chu Wanxin dared to accept it.

As for the beauty Li Xiuning, she is more like an addition.
