"As long as your highness supports me! I can win!" Su Yeli said without saying anything.
"It's okay for me to support you, but if one day I have some special requests that you need to implement, will you agree?" Li Ke looked at her and asked.
"What special request?" Su Yeli was stunned for a moment. Of course she would not think that His Highness King Qin was interested in her. Her beauty was not even comparable to the maids around His Highness King Qin.
"If one day Zhenwa comes into contact with people from other countries, for example, when you conduct bulk trade with people from other countries, you must use our Datang currency unit as the basis, and you Zhenwa have your own currency. But the exchange rate must be pegged to my Datang currency.”
"And when you purchase supplies from our Datang, you must also use our currency." Li Ke said calmly.
"Isn't this what it should be? I have no problem." Su Yeli was a little strange. Although she was a little confused, she didn't understand things like exchange rates, but buying things from Datang, trading with Datang, using Datang Isn’t that what Tang’s currency should be?
"Well, just do what you think it should be." Li Ke nodded, "Actually, I am doing it for everyone's benefit, to help you make better money, such as the silk, porcelain, and tea you bought from me. Wait, you will definitely not be able to consume all the real wax, and you will definitely sell it to other countries such as the Mule Country."
"If the trade between your country and the Mule country also uses the currency of the Tang Dynasty, wouldn't this save you trouble? Then you can just trade directly, so that you don't have to barter everything with Value needs to be renegotiated.”
Su Yeli thought for a while, and it seemed that it was like this. The main transaction was using the currency of the Tang Dynasty. After the trade came back, it seemed that she could still buy things from His Highness. This was a good thing!
"I will definitely support His Highness!" Su Yeli agreed directly.
"Okay, since you agreed, then I will definitely support you. Of course, you also know that you can't eat the real wax by yourself. After all, your strength is not enough for you to keep such a huge wealth, so to You must give away part of these profits." Li Ke nodded and said with a smile.
"no problem."
"Then let's wait until the war situation becomes clear and we'll talk in a few days." Li Ke nodded, smiling and indicating that she could go down and rest.
At this time, Su Yeli suddenly discovered that there was a conflict between Zhenwa and Datang, or... there was no conflict yet, but they were already preparing for a conflict.
But she is not worried. Since His Highness said this, it proves that His Highness cannot completely eliminate the real wax, although Datang definitely has this strength.
On the third day after talking to Su Yeli, Qiu Lin led eight thousand Tang Dynasty border troops to Xianglin City.
"My lord, Qiu Lin has met His Highness." Qiu Lin naturally came over to see Li Ke immediately.
"Without courtesy, the security work of each city in Linyi will be left to you. From now on, this will be Xianglinyi in the Tang Dynasty. Linyi country no longer exists." Li Ke waved his hand.
"Yes!" Qiu Lin didn't know what he was feeling. Lin Yi's country was indeed not big, but because there were important troops such as elephant soldiers stationed there, in fact, if the Tang Dynasty wanted to win, it would require at least 20,000 elite troops.
After all, the impact of war elephants is really huge, no less than that of heavy cavalry.
But Your Highness, no one knows how His Highness did it. It is said that someone in Lin Yi rebelled and took the royal city, and then wanted His Highness to join him?
It's just that Qiu Lin doesn't think it's the same. It's too much of a coincidence. Oh, if His Highness doesn't come, you won't rebel. If His Highness comes, you'll rebel. What does that mean? Are you taking the initiative to give His Highness a country?
I have never seen anything so outrageous, but at least to the outside world, this is the truth.
Datang did not take the initiative to attack Linyi, but Linyi rebelled. After the rebels occupied the capital, they wanted Datang to surrender. It was justifiable for Datang to accept it.
Li Ke thought for a while and realized that all the current nobles in Lin Yi were dead, so it was quite suitable to be a pilot. Li Ke simply planned to directly transfer a large number of members of Yuelai Trading Company from Li Dai, and directly began to appoint them, and added Among the officials at all levels in Linyi.
For example, from the lowest-level village chief to the township chief, the county chief mainly supplements administrative officials. In addition, the more than a thousand Linyi soldiers who gathered Shi Lang, combined with the soldiers who surrendered in Linyi before, will Their numbers are all disrupted and then distributed to various counties and townships. Each county has an average of about a thousand people.
Li Ke transferred 200 people from his bodyguards to conduct military training for a month, and Li Ke would send a ship back to Guangzhou and transfer 500 soldiers he had trained before. After being trained by Li Ke, they were not suitable for being a navy and suffered from seasickness.
But there is definitely nothing wrong with them acting as instructors.
In addition, all soldiers in Lin Yi are paid monthly according to the navy that Li Ke had organized before, and are provided with official food subsidies, free food and accommodation, etc.
Anyway, Li Ke is not short of food now. After this series of policies, Li Ke wants to see what the final result will be.
When Li Ke was formulating relevant plans, south of Linyi and Kunnan City.
This is an important military town in the south of Linyi, and it is related to the important land transportation route to the north of Linyi.
Liu Yilong and Pei Xingjian arrived here about a day ago. The remaining nobles in Kunnan City are gone. It’s not that they were directly captured in Xianglin City, but that the main family members of the nobles here are in Xianglin City. , and when the news came from Xianglin City, the soldiers here directly rebelled.
That's right, it can't be said to be a rebellion, but a direct "response" to His Majesty the King's call, the nobles here were captured, and then directly executed.
And they were waiting where they were, waiting for the subsequent arrival of the Tang army.
When Liu Yilong and Pei Xingjian arrived, there were almost no senior officials in the city, but there was no big commotion. Even the original soldiers stayed in their respective military camps.
After taking over the entire city, Liu Yilong sent two or three captains to temporarily manage the city, while their troops went directly to the south of the city to hide.
According to the news they received and the scouts released in advance, Zhenwa's army was about to arrive.
There are about 8,000 Zhenwa soldiers in total, and the rest include some Linyi troops to assist them in transporting supplies.
Their purpose was simple, to go straight to Kunnan City.
