Farming game: raise cubs with equipment

Chapter 1021 Consequences
Yan Qinghe hummed lightly, took the glass of wine with his right hand and drank it down in one gulp.

Liu Han watched the interaction between the two calmly, and his heart ached.

In the middle of the banquet, Prime Minister Pei brought the conversation back to the point: "Master Yan, I don't know why you came to Chu..."

Pei Xiang heard about the intention of the Great Zhou envoy from the Queen Mother, but he has not officially confirmed it, and it is not clear whether it is because of this...

Of course, Prime Minister Pei will not make a special trip to remind Yan Qinghe of this matter...

"After the defeat of Da Chu, the two cities promised to Da Zhou have not yet been handed over. Our emperor sent foreign ministers here to solve this matter. I don't know what Da Chu means? If there is a war, Da Zhou will naturally accompany him." Yan Qinghe came slowly.

Pei Xiang froze, then looked at Liu Han.

This matter is a national matter, he can't answer for Liu Han.

Yan Qinghe obviously felt the dignified atmosphere around him, he put down the wine cup calmly and lowered his eyelids.

Liu Han squinted his eyes. He knew that the envoy from Dazhou came because of the handover of the two cities, so he picked him up from the post in less than two days.

But what he didn't expect was that it would be Yan Qinghe...

The two cities of Shancheng and Yancheng were the headaches of the Chu Emperor when he was in power. The reason why the grain production base of Chu State went to Dazhou to borrow grain was because the grain here was still immature after the plague.

The reason why the handover was delayed was because Emperor Chu wanted to wait until the grain was harvested...

When the state of Chu recovers, maybe the two cities will not be given away.

Right now, the people of Dachu are struggling to survive the problem of food and clothing. For any country, food is definitely the biggest problem.

The geographical location of Dachu determines that there are few places that can produce grain. If there is a natural or man-made disaster, most of the grain will be imported from other countries, and Shancheng and Yancheng have played a huge role in it. It can be said that if there is no The food production in these two cities, the situation that Dachu has just maintained will be broken again, and it will become a fragrant bun in the mouths of all countries.

Whether it's for saving the country or overcoming difficulties, Liu Han can't let go of these two cities easily.

But the purpose of Yan Qinghe's coming here is also very clear. If he doesn't give it, what awaits him is a war between the two countries. Once the war starts, the manpower and materials needed will be unimaginable.

Whether it is to give or not, Da Chu is at a disadvantage, which is why the Chu emperor has been delaying.

Although Liu Han had pretended to be weak before, he knew something about this matter. He originally thought that this matter would be resolved smoothly after a few more months. Who knew that he would come to claim the city at this critical moment?
This is simply a problem for Liu Han who has just become the prince...

"Your Majesty Yan doesn't know, it's not that I'm procrastinating, but that the food in Shancheng and Yancheng is the grain production base of our country. I believe Master Yan has also heard about the shortage of food in Dachu. Our country is waiting for prosperity. Food is the most important thing. If it is given to Dazhou, the people of our country will starve to death. This is really not what I want to see. I hope Lord Yan will allow some more time. Here you go." Liu Han pursed his lips, not caring about unraveling the scars of his own country, even if he didn't say anything, Yan Qinghe didn't check much, showing weakness, sometimes it is a means.

"When our Da Zhou suffered from the plague and lack of food, why didn't Da Chu show more sympathy for my Da Zhou? Instead, he took the opportunity to provoke a war between the two countries, and lost the battle, but made me Da Zhou repeatedly give in for this? What's the reason for this? "Yan Qinghe knocked on the table, with a clear tone and a smile on his face, "Could it be possible that if I was defeated by Da Zhou at the beginning, and you Da Chu faced Da Zhou's predicament, you could also give Da Zhou a temporary rest?"

How is this possible?It must be like a vicious dog rushing for food, swallowing Da Zhou into his stomach, how can he wait for him to recover?
Liu Han didn't even need to think about it, he knew the result.

But... this time it was his side who suffered, how could the defeated country dare to raise conditions?

"Since Da Zhou did not start a war, but sent Master Yan, he must have wanted to negotiate peace with Da Chu and discuss a perfect plan. Even so, the two sides don't have to talk about it, it's better for us to be open and honest." Mrs. Pei Smiling and selling well, "His Royal Highness's words are not because he does not want to hand over the originally planned city to Dazhou, but because this matter is related to the people's livelihood and society. If His Royal Highness does this, it is no different from the subjugation of the country. Great Zhou and Da Chu Adjacent to each other, and the surrounding countries are indeed covetous, and the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, I believe Lord Yan also knows that if my country is destroyed, in this remote place, there will be only the country of Great Zhou. If other countries start a war and become encircled, Da Zhou may not be able to resist, not to mention, there is my Da Chu in the north, who can defend Da Zhou against the Western Regions, Lord Yan, are you right to say the truth?"

Before Yan Qinghe entered the palace, he made a special trip to inquire about it, and Prime Minister Pei was really eloquent.

Originally, it was Da Chu who asked Da Zhou for help, but after he said so, it turned out that Da Zhou was dependent on Da Chu.

If Da Zhou was determined to destroy Da Chu, those waiting for Da Zhou would also be subjugated.

Although the words were too sharp, Yan Qinghe naturally understood the reason behind them.

The reason why Emperor Da Zhou agreed to Yan Qinghe's mission to Da Chu must have concerns in this regard.

As a monarch, he has to consider the overall situation more.

Doesn't the emperor want to annex Dachu?
From Yan Qinghe's point of view, this is not necessarily the case.

Although there are kings who want to shrink only one country, there are also kings who want to annex countries and form a unified trend.

But easier said than done, ever easier?
The Emperor of Great Zhou naturally wanted to annex Great Chu, but he also had to consider whether other countries would be ready to move during this offensive?

The previous battle was to defend the Great Zhou, and not all of the troops were brought to the battlefield. However, if a country is to be conquered, more than half of the troops will be tilted to this side. As far as the Great Zhou is concerned, the rear is empty, and who knows what other countries will do. Won't you take this opportunity to occupy the capital?

At that time, the life and death of Da Zhou will be in an instant.

It is precisely because of the consideration of this situation that although the two countries are at war, they are all small and big troubles, but they just want to seek some benefits.

Who dares to fight recklessly like this?

It was precisely because they all had scruples that the Emperor of Great Zhou was not so urgent to urge the Great Chu to delay the city this time. If Yan Qinghe hadn't mentioned it, perhaps the Emperor of Great Zhou would have to wait another month or two.

But, who let Liu Han take Yun Yiyi away?
Before Yan Qinghe left, the Emperor of Great Zhou gave him all the rights of speech, so he had the right to decide whether to obey Da Chu's peace and business.

If the talks between the two parties collapse, he is not the one who does not leave himself a way out.

The people in Xuanji Pavilion were all brought here by him. If he really wanted to stop him from returning to the country, it was not impossible to get out of trouble.

"Pei Xiang's words are wrong. Although Da Zhou and Da Chu live next to each other, there may not be no way to break the situation. My Da Zhou has already recovered after the plague. Let alone fighting, even if it is destroying the country, Even if there is still a fight, I don’t know if Da Chu has the ability to dare to fight? If the monarch of our country insists on attacking Da Chu, he may not be incapable of taking Da Chu in the shortest time. At that time, Da Chu will be my Da Zhou Guotu, who dares to offend my Great Zhou? Da Chu, you are not qualified to negotiate terms with my Great Zhou!" Yan Qinghe's eyes darkened and his tone was calm, but what he said shocked the expressions of all officials.

Yun Yiyi looked up at Yan Qinghe, the joy in her eyes was undisguised.

If Pei Xiang wanted to argue with Yan Qinghe about eloquence, he might be wrong.

Although Yan Qinghe didn't like long speeches, he really wanted to say that he might not lose to others.

The lack of lips and teeth must also be based on the conditions of equality between the two countries. If one side is too weak, it is not normal for the other side to annex it to increase its own strength?
What's more, food is the fatal point of Da Chu.

Even if Da Zhou surrounded Da Chu, even if he didn't attack the city, it would kill Da Chu just by consuming time.

What's more, the people are the foundation of a country.

His great Chu royal family can survive, but can the common people survive?
Since ancient times, how many battles have been lost to the people?

Soldiers can't even eat enough to eat, so what strength do they have to fight?

Such an army, not to mention morale, doesn't even have the will to fight.

And the people surrounding the Great Chu are the most important part.

As long as Dazhou shows that it can provide food, countless people will rush out to snatch the soldiers' weapons, and Dazhou will naturally win without a fight.

The common people don't care which country you are from, as long as they can eat well and dress warmly, whether it is Zhou Min or Chu Min, what difference does it make to them?

People need to solve the most basic food and clothing problems before they have the energy to think about other things.

What's more, the people here have not received any education, and they have not implanted any concept of patriotism in their hearts, and they belong to the best educated category.

A monarch who can't even solve the problem of food and clothing, how can he talk about respect and courtesy?
Unlike a soldier, the responsibility of defending has been integrated into his nature. A soldier, even if he dies, he will die on the battlefield of defending his home and country.

People don't have such awareness...

Yun Yiyi didn't feel that Yan Qinghe was talking big, because the facts were like this, and the strong always ruled.

But her understanding of the Great Zhou Emperor was that the other party didn't seem to be the one to fight, so would Yan Qinghe's rhetoric have any effect?
Yun Yiyi couldn't help pinching Yan Qinghe's palm.

Yan Qinghe seemed to feel her worry, and slightly tightened his fingers to wrap her little hand.

She raised her eyes, and the other party smiled gently.

His chin, which was originally tense because of the conversation, suddenly relaxed a little because of this smile.

Like ice and snow meeting the sun, it melts in a blink of an eye.

Yun Yiyi lowered her eyes, and a smile appeared on her lips.

She knew that this was what Yan Qinghe meant to reassure her.

"Master Yan, don't you think that the peace talks have failed, so you can go out properly?" Liu Han's expression was condensed, and he interrupted the two people's speechless stares, his voice was slightly cool, "No matter how bad I am, it's okay to stop someone You did it, did Master Yan not consider the consequences when he said this?"
