Chapter 533 The two sides negotiate
Chapter 533
Susilo reacted, nodded repeatedly, and said anxiously: "Your Highness, I'll go and invite Hamid here!"
After a moment of pause, he changed his mind and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Your Highness dares to venture into the Xifan Army camp just because of that letter?"
Li Yu smiled and said, "I believe in your sincerity."
"Why?"
Susilo looked puzzled.
Li Yu said slowly: "No race is willing to be a inferior person for another race!"
This sentence really touched Susilo's heart, and made Susilo blush and invincible since.
He did not waste any more time and whispered: "Your Highness is here for a moment, and the villain will go back!"
After saying that, he quickly walked out of the tent.
Seeing this, Lu Chi was about to go out, Li Yu shook his head at him, saying that he just needed to stay here and not to be on guard.
If Susilo really wants to sell them, it will be useless for anyone to go out and be on guard.
About a quarter of an hour later, Susilo came back from outside and brought in a man, a man in his forties.
When the man saw Li Yu and others, he looked shocked and asked, "Who...Who is His Highness the King of Wu?"
He doesn't know how to speak Chinese, Susilo acts as a translator.
Li Yu said: "I am Li Yu!"
The man looked at the young man who was less than twenty years old in front of him and was stunned for a moment. Then, he stroked his chest respectfully and said, "Foreign minister Hamid, pay homage to His Highness the King of Wu of Zhou!"
Li Yu waved his hand and said, "General Hamid, there is no need to be too polite!"
Hamid stood up and sighed sincerely: "The foreign minister never dreamed that His Highness the King of Wu could actually visit the Xifan Army camp!"
How could a dignified vassal king have such courage?
How did he do it?
Hamid couldn't figure it out.
It's actually very simple. Li Yu's courage is forced out.
He could not take the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on his own, so he could only take the risk of his own.
Li Yu smiled indifferently at Hamid, said slowly and proudly: "The world is so big, there is no place that I can't go!"
When he said this, he was full of courage and his calves were twitching.
But Li Yu's performance really impressed Hamid.
He also admires His Highness the King of Wu in front of him from the bottom of his heart.
The most important point is that Hamid has now determined that cooperating with Li Yu is definitely the best choice for us.
After the two of them exchanged greetings, they sat down one after another.
Hamid took the lead in getting to the point and said seriously: "His Royal Highness, at 6 o'clock tomorrow night, I will lead 200,000 soldiers of the Saro Legion to swear in the camp that as long as your Highness leads the army to attack, you and I will work together inside and outside, and will definitely defeat the people of the Xifan!"
Li Yu said: "It is of great importance. Can the brothers of the Saro Legion really work together?"
If most people were fenceists and immediately turned against or surrendered when they saw the Xifan army coming, the war tomorrow would probably be very unfavorable!
Hamid smiled bitterly.
It seems that the Saro people's greed for life and fear of death not only penetrated into the hearts of the Xifan people, but also into the hearts of the Zhou people!
He took a deep breath and said, "If it were in the past, the foreign ministers could not guarantee that most soldiers would have the same heart as the foreign ministers! But now, the foreign ministers can guarantee to Your Highness that our Sarau army will share the same hatred against the people of the Xifan!"
"oh?"
Hamid sighed and said, "Recently, the supply of the Espanyol people cannot be transported, and the food and grass in the camp is in urgent need, but the Espanyol people has only greatly reduced the food and food of our Saro people. It only increased and did not decrease the food for their Espanyol people. This is not only unfair, but a great humiliation for us Saro people!"
After a moment of pause, he said meaningfully: "I, the Saro people, don't like war or go to the battlefield, but this does not mean that I, the Saro people, can be bullied and embarrassed!"
Li Yu nodded in understanding.
So that's it!
No wonder the Saro people suddenly changed their attitude.
However, Li Yu could fully understand the practice of the Xifan Army. If he was sitting in the position of commander of the Xifan Army, he would have made the same choice.
In Li Yu's opinion, the Xifan Army should not have conscripted 200,000 Saro Army to charge for the number.
This extrapolation will only increase variables and lay great hidden dangers.
Li Yu said: "Okay! At 6 o'clock tomorrow night, your army will swear in the Xifan Army camp that our Zhou army will be divided into three directions: Huaian City, Huaishan Camp and Anshan Camp. At that time, under the attacks inside and outside, there will be no worries about the Xifan Army not breaking!"
Hamid nodded to Li Yu with joy.
Immediately afterwards, he asked again: "If Your Highness and the Foreign Minister can really succeed in a battle and defeat the Xifan Army, what are your Highness's plans next?"
Hamid asked the most critical question in this sentence and the most concerned question.
Li Yu asked without hesitation, smiling, "Where is General Hamid's opinion?"
Hamid said immediately without thinking: "When you take advantage of the victory to pursue it, go north and conquer Zhou's lost territory!"
"Um!"
Li Yu clicked and expressed his approval.
Hamid continued: "When the Zhou Kingdom conquered all the lost land, we can advance all the way west and restore Wan Kingdom!"
"Um!"
Li Yu continued to nod.
The restoration of Wan Kingdom was indeed within Li Yu's established plan.
Hamid said: "After successfully restoring Wan, your highness can lead his army to continue to go west, approach the Saro Kingdom, and help me restore the Saro Kingdom!"
Restore the country!
This is the most critical thing Hamid wants to say.
Li Yu did not agree immediately, but rubbed his chin and said, "In this way, the problems facing the Xifan Army now will become problems of our Zhou army!"
Now, the Xifan Army is in full swing in the Zhou State, and the logistics supply line is too long, resulting in the supply being transported.
Once the Zhou army goes deep into the Saro Kingdom to fight, the Zhou army's logistics supply line will be too long. No one can guarantee whether the supply can be kept up in time.
Hamid and Susilo looked at each other, and the latter said quietly: "Your Highness, the reason why we, the Saro people are willing to cooperate with the Zhou people to fight against the powerful enemy and restore the country is our bottom line!"
You Zhou people, you can’t just think about yourself and then ignore us!
Li Yu pondered for a moment and said, "I believe both of you understand the situation in Zhou State now. There are internal and external troubles and the national treasury is deficient. If you go to Saro to fight, with the current national treasury of the Great Zhou State, it may be difficult to support it!"
Hamid frowned.
After all, you just want us to help you fight off the people of the Xifan, but you don’t want to help us restore our country!
Hamid was about to speak, Susilo secretly pulled off his clothes. He smiled at Li Yu and asked, "How much does your Highness want?"
"This is not a matter of money!"
"Although my country of Saro was destroyed, most of the nobles are still alive. If they can restore the country, I believe that the nobles will be willing to donate thousands of wealth!"
"Five million taels of silver!"
Li Yu said so simply.
“…”
Hamid rubbed his forehead.
Didn’t you say that it’s not a matter of money?
Suxiluo and Li Yu had done business. They knew how much money the King of Wu loved and how difficult he was in terms of money.
He frowned and said, "Five million taels, this... is too much!"
Li Yu said seriously: "I may not get the support of the court to help the Saro Kingdom restore the country. Having said that, even if the court wants to support me, the treasury does not have that financial power!
"I will use these five million taels of silver to pay the soldiers, to purchase military rations, military supplies, and to provide pensions to the families of the fallen soldiers. It is still unknown whether it can be enough!"
Chapter completed!
