"Does the King not believe in the quality of our Ming Dynasty weapons, or does he not believe in the sincerity of our general?"
As soon as Shah Jahan finished speaking, the messenger said impatiently.
Although selling weapons to these barbarians is an order from above. But this doesn’t mean it can be sold cheaply.
The other party is definitely not saying this just for these nonsense, there is a high probability that it is to bargain for a lower price.
"No, no," Shah Jahan waved his hands hastily.
He really didn't dare to mess with Daming now.
"If it's not enough, you're right. Without comparison, it's really inappropriate to sell it at such a high price. Otherwise, we can have a direct test at the school grounds tomorrow to see if our weapons are worth the price."
The messenger said disdainfully. ,
The reason why I say this is mainly because the messenger has the confidence.
I already know a lot about the Mughal Empire and Ming Dynasty.
The most elite troops of the Mughal Empire now prepare crossbows with a range of about 80 steps. The ability to break armor can only be achieved within 30 steps. In the past, the reason why 1,000 troops of the Ming Dynasty could defeat the opponent's 10,000 elites head-on was because the opponent's range was insufficient.
In a head-on battle, the opponent is always in a passive position of being beaten.
Otherwise, even if the Ming army can win, it will still suffer losses.
The crossbows on our side have a range of 100 steps and can break armor within 60 steps. Such weapons are infinitely stronger than the opponent's.
And next, the Mughal Empire will usher in a wave of slaves.
Under Zhu Youjian's secret instructions, a large number of Japanese slaves and Mongolians who chose to surrender were sent here.
As long as Shah Jahan did not want to be destroyed by the Ming Dynasty, he had to embark on the road of Western Expedition.
If you want to succeed in the Western Expedition, the combat effectiveness of your soldiers is indispensable. The thing that guarantees the combat effectiveness of soldiers is weapons.
For a powerful weapon, coupled with the threat from your own side, the other party has to buy it or not.
"Yes," said Shah Jahan,
Shah Jahan is still clear about the current situation.
Under the threat of Ming Dynasty, Shah Jahan did not dare to offend the other party.
If the price of the crossbow was not too outrageous, Shah Jahan would have endured it, but the other party's price was too expensive. A strong crossbow cost 20 taels of silver, and a crossbow arrow cost 1 tael.
5,000 powerful crossbows and 100,000 crossbow arrows are two hundred thousand taels of silver.
Plus other big swords and so on, it would be almost 300,000 taels of silver. This has exceeded
With such an expensive price, it is clear that you are being taken advantage of.
Although I really don't dare to offend them now, it doesn't mean that I am willing to be taken advantage of.
Although the Mughal Empire had some financial resources in its treasury, it was not rich enough not to take 300,000 taels of silver seriously.
Although Shah Jahan was very powerful, directly using 300,000 taels of silver would definitely cause dissatisfaction among many people.
You know, not everyone is so sensible.
You can accept this order for the sake of the country, but there will definitely be many people with patriotic slogans who will come up with various reasons to refute it.
But holding a competition is different.
If what the other party said is true and you spend money to buy it at this time, it would not be called humiliation, but insightful and far-sighted. ,
If it turns out that the other party is bragging, in public, the other party probably won't go too far.
Even if the other party still wants to force the sale, why can't the price be more favorable?
Dear, this chapter is finished, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
