In the end, it was still about benefits.
Even though Du Qi was already prepared to send troops, this involved Shengjia's request for help. This was Shengjia's request. Thus, Du Qi still had to seek benefits and make the Gaoda Nation give him sufficient benefits.
Oriha didn't know what Du Qi was thinking, but he was prepared. "Reporting to Emperor Xia, the Gaoda Nation isn't strong and can't compare to Xia Xia. They definitely don't have the power to give us money or food. However, we have a guide that will allow Xia Xia's army to enter the Jieri Dynasty without any trouble. "
After a pause, Oriha continued, "In addition, we have detailed information on the King of Jieri. With this information, Emperor Xia will be able to attack the King of Jieri without any trouble. To the Xia Emperor, this was extremely advantageous. After seizing the Jieri Dynasty's territory, you will be able to expand Xia Xia's territory. Why not? "
Du Qi said, "Even without the guidance of the Gaoda Nation, We can easily enter the Jieri Dynasty. After all, we can spend some money to rope in some Tianzhu merchants, and it won't be difficult to enter the Jieri Dynasty. We don't agree to the Gaoda Nation's conditions. If the Gaoda Nation doesn't have more suitable conditions, then there's no need to ask me to send troops. "
Oriha frowned.
His expression was grave.
This was because it would be difficult to persuade Du Qi. If they wanted to succeed, they would have to pay an even greater price. However, if Du Qi didn't send troops to attack the Jieri Dynasty and didn't allow the King of Jieri to divide his forces, then the Gaoda Nation would be in trouble. This was because the current King of Jieri was constantly sending troops to attack the Gaoda Nation in an attempt to destroy it. Under this precondition, Oriha had to convince Du Qi to send troops.
Oriha said, "What conditions do you want, Emperor Xia?"
Du Qi smiled. "My conditions are simple. After the matter is settled, the Gaoda Nation will give me a thousand gold taels, a thousand elephants, and fifty thousand kilograms of food."
"No problem!"
When Olija heard this, he answered without hesitation.
His thoughts were simple. Once Du Qi attacked the King of Jieri and became enemies with the King of Jieri, the danger to Gao Da would be gone. Orija did not think that Du Qi could defeat King of Jieri because the King of Jieri was very strong. In any case, when the time came, Gao Da would no longer be a threat, and Du Qi would be blocked by King of Jieri's army and unable to head south. It would not be easy to fulfill Du Qi's conditions, and when the time came, they would be able to find an opportunity to back out.
Du Qi sneered inwardly when he saw Oriha's quick reply and the cunning look in his eyes.
Oliha wanted to scheme against him? Impossible!
Now that he had agreed, it was a promise. Du Qi's plan was not to be blocked by the King of Jieri on the northern side of Tianzhu, but to head south and destroy the King of Jieri. Once he defeated the King of Jieri and his army arrived at Gao Da, Du Qi would have a reason to destroy the country if they did not fulfill their end of the agreement.
This was Du Qi's plan.
Du Qi said in a deep voice, "Oriha, this agreement must be written in a letter of credence and signed by both sides. The letter must state clearly that if Gao Da does not fulfill the agreement, We will send troops to attack Gao Da. "
"No problem!"
Oriha replied directly.
Oriha was still certain that Du Qi could not defeat the King of Jieri. It must be known that the infantry, cavalry, and elephant soldiers under the King of Jieri were all elites. The King of Jieri's elephant soldiers numbered close to sixty thousand, which was even more terrifying. This was an extremely tyrannical force.
In the early Jieri Dynasty, although the elephant soldiers were powerful, they only numbered around six thousand. After the King of Jieri ascended the throne, he vigorously developed the elephant soldiers, to the point where there were now tens of thousands of elephant soldiers.
This was an even more invincible troop class.
Oriha was not worried at all. On the contrary, he felt that he had successfully hoodwinked Du Qi.
Du Qi immediately wrote a letter of credence. This letter was written in Xia Xia's language and Gao Da's language. There were two copies of each word, and then they signed the agreement.
Oriha put away the letter of credence in satisfaction and said, "Dare I ask, Emperor Xia, when will you send troops?"
Du Qi said, "We will send troops in three days."
Oriha pondered for a moment. Three days to prepare was not a bad time. Moreover, Du Qi had given a clear time. Since this was the case, Du Qi would definitely not refuse to send troops. Thus, Oriha immediately said, "Since that's the case, I will immediately return to Gao Da and report this news to the King. I believe that my King will be very grateful to the Emperor Xia. "
Du Qi said, "Have him prepare the terms of the treaty. Next, send it to Us."
"Of course, of course!"
Oriha replied with a smile.
At this moment, Oriha appeared extremely relaxed. He once more bowed to Du Qi, then turned and left. After Oriha left, Du Qi began to consider the matter of Gao Da.
Gao Da's request was an opportunity. Similarly, in the Jieri Dynasty, there were actually many small countries that were dissatisfied with the King of Jieri. However, due to the strength of the King of Jieri, everyone submitted to the King of Jieri. This aspect could also be exploited.
While Du Qi was thinking, Shangguan Yi entered again. This time, Ma Zhou and the others followed him, as well as several generals in the army, Xue Rengui, Xiao Yuanqi, Ma Yuan, and Su Dingfang.
Each of their faces was filled with pleasant surprise.
They all looked curious.
Du Qi looked at them and asked, "You all came together. Is there something you need?"
Xue Rengui said, "Your Majesty, this telescope is extremely useful. Although the distance is clearly three thousand feet, in fact, if you push forward another five hundred feet, you will be able to see more or less clearly. Even if it is somewhat blurry, it can still be used. With the telescope, it will be cheaper for us to command on the battlefield, and we can predict the enemy's layout in advance. Your Majesty, who invented this? "
Du Qi said, "People from the University of Science and Technology. The leader is Wang Ping and the others."
Xue Rengui exclaimed in admiration, "This person is too powerful."
Ma Yuan said, "Your Majesty, I don't need to lead the army. Can you allow me to take people to the University of Science and Technology and personally ask Mr. Wang Ping to take the telescope?"
Du Qi said, "I can't wait. I want to take it personally!"
Ma Yuan smiled. He was indeed looking forward to it. Because there was only one pair of telescope in the army, and he hadn't familiarized himself with it before it was handed over to others to study. Ma Yuan was already somewhat impatient.
Du Qi said, "If you want to go, then go personally and take the telescope and equip it in the army."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Ma Yuan smiled.
Shangguan Yi continued, "Your Majesty, the purpose of our visit is, on the one hand, to understand the person who invented the telescope. On the other hand, it is for the expedition. What is the reason for our crusade against the Jieri Dynasty in the north of Tianzhu this time? In order to have a good reason, there has to be a reason. "
Du Qi said, "Now that we have a reason, come, take a look."
As he spoke, Du Qi had already taken out Shangguan Yi's letter of credence and handed it to him. When Shangguan Yi finished reading it, he was already shocked. He said, "Your Majesty, where did this letter of credence come from? Where is Gao Da from? Why are they suddenly asking us to send troops?"
The others also finished reading the letter of credence and were all surprised. The bad people had not infiltrated Tianzhu much. At this time, it was not clear enough to understand the situation in Tianzhu.
Du Qi actually already had a letter of credence from Gao Da requesting to send troops.
This was the reason.
Du Qi explained the situation in Gao Da and the situation between Gao Da and the Jieri Dynasty. In the end, he said, "Gao Da actually wants to use us to restrain the King of Jieri. However, the reason why I wrote the letter of credence is that when we destroy the King of Jieri and attack Gao Da, we will have a good reason to send troops. Gao Da thinks that he has the advantage, but after we destroy the King of Jieri, it will be his turn. "
Du Qi wanted to bring the entire Tianzhu under his command.
This was his intention.
After hearing Du Qi's words, everyone praised his wisdom. They were no longer worried and went back to their work. Du Qi also got up and went to the harem to see his children. After all, this departure would be a matter of months.
