After the 15th day of the New Year, except for Nanzhao, Luo, Li, Piao, Baiyue and other small countries in the southwest, which would have to stay closed for some time due to heavy snowfall, the envoys from the grassland tribes and overseas vassal tribes, They all said goodbye and went home one after another.
The missions of the two grassland overlords Shiwei and Xiqiang did not leave. Their excuse was that they wanted to communicate more with Dakang and actively attract businessmen to do business with them.
In fact, their lower-level mission members also did the same, but the purpose of the higher-ups was naturally not this.
They wanted to see how unlucky Dakang was.
Today they will meet again at the inn.
"Compared with when they first arrived, the heads of the two embassy delegations were much happier.
Why?
Since before their arrival, the snowstorm has been raging in the central and southwest areas, and it has not stopped yet.
People on the grasslands are very aware of the disasters caused by snowstorms.
"When encountering such a snowstorm, cattle and sheep will inevitably die on a large scale, and even many herdsmen will not be able to survive it.
It can be said that the vitality will be damaged every time it comes.
This is also an important reason why the prairie people's cavalry is invincible, but they are always unable to accumulate more power and conquer the Central Plains in one fell swoop.
Now they have learned wisely and built several large cities so that herdsmen can live in the cities, so that they can withstand most severe natural disasters.
But the population of these tribes is still insufficient.
Among them, Shiwei, the largest group, only has six million people, and Xiqiang is second, with four million people.
The seemingly ferocious Uighurs only have two million people.
Although there are 2.5 million Qiyan people on the northern plateau, because there are so many tribes and their strength is too scattered, they have been attacked from the east and west by the Xiqiang and Shiwei, and they cannot develop at all.
¡°They combined do not account for more than one-tenth of the population of Dakang. How do you think we can fight against them?
Of course, someone must mention the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty could conquer the Ming Dynasty with a total of more than 300,000 people. Why are these tribes with ten or twenty times the population still unable to conquer the Ming Dynasty?
the reason is simple.
As long as there is no trouble in the Central Plains court, no grassland tribe can destroy us.
Take the unparalleled Mongol Empire as an example. Genghis Khan was such a towering figure that he was able to destroy hundreds of countries to the west. He defeated the Jin Kingdom with only one breath left and wiped out Xixia with ease. Why didn't he conquer a small corner of the country? The Southern Song Dynasty?
He couldn¡¯t do it, and Wo Kuotai couldn¡¯t do it either. Meng Ge was even beaten to death on Diaoyutai.
In the end, Kublai Khan also took advantage of the internal conflicts of the Southern Song Dynasty and annihilated the effective forces of the Southern Song Dynasty in one fell swoop. The Southern Song Dynasty also made a series of stupid moves, and finally destroyed the Song Dynasty.
Although our Qing Dynasty has a population of just over 300,000, we have the Eight Mongolians and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, as well as traitor pioneers like Wu Sangui, Geng Jingzhong, and Shang Kexi!
Half of the territory was conquered by these traitors or persuaded to surrender.
??????????????????????????????? Otherwise, with the little force they have, the city of Jiangyin will be wiped out by a few fierce battles.
In fact, even if it was defeated, the Qing Dynasty would still have to rely on the Han people to govern the country. It would soon be Hanized, so that it could slowly rule for more than two hundred years.
??Leave this matter unmentioned.
? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mb flummigmbmbmbmbgsllylly??????? out out the blizzard that has raged in the heart of Dakang for more than a month, everyone knows how much damage it will cause.
So these grassland people are happy.
"It would be nice if this snowstorm lasted for another month." Qiledumi, the commander of the Xiqiang Imperial Guards, sighed while drinking wine, "In this way, their six provinces will be basically ruined this year, and their production and life will be ruined. It will be greatly affected. Hmph, I want to see if Jiangnan is really so brave and invincible that it can take on the livelihood of these six provinces this year?"
Qiledu is looking forward to it very much. If this snowstorm can last until March, he will actively encourage the general to send troops!
Han Legu, the left minister of Wei's Ministry of Rites, shook his head and said: "Even if Jiangnan is a paradise on earth, how much more can it have after all these years of consumption? No matter how powerful Liu Renhuai is, he can't produce food and money."
But his companion Yelu Anxiang, a descendant of the royal family, had a different opinion: "I think what you two said is not accurate enough. The disaster suffered by Dakang this time was not as serious as imagined."
The Deputy Prime Minister of Xiqiang and the Grand Scholar Yiduoluo Fan nodded: "My young prince, please tell me."
Qile even pursed his lips, but did not refute immediately, but waited to hear his theory.
&nbMr. ?? is someone who cares about the people. Such briquettes are not profitable at all. Moreover, if you buy 100 briquettes, you will get a briquette stove as a gift. We have it in our post house, and the cost of the stove is no less than 200 coins. "
All right.
Liu Mingqi can already be regarded as his husband in his heart.
no way.
"The article "Encouragement to Learning" is the most popular article in any era.
Even in 2021, as long as the children can keep calm and understand the meaning seriously, they can still only kneel down and shout "Grandpa Xunzi is so awesome".
Being able to hear King Shou reciting "Encouraging Learning" on the spot, Yelu Anxiang felt that it was the greatest luck in his life.
From the article, we can see a person¡¯s character, so he directly addressed Liu Mingqi as Mr. to show his respect.
"He is not a good person." Qiledu said unconvinced: "How much does soap cost at our place? At the craziest time, it was twenty taels per dollar! But how much does it cost in the Imperial City? One tael per dollar!"
Yelu Anxiang immediately retorted: "This just proves Mr. Liu's kindness. As far as I know, his shop here in the capital only sells one tael of silver a piece for the common people to use. But because it was too popular, he was bought by others. After you get it, sell it to a distant place. The further away you are, the more expensive it becomes. Is there anything wrong with that?"
"Where's the floral essential oil? A little bit is so expensive, is it made of gold?"
"This is not aimed at ordinary people, and it has nothing to do with ordinary people's lives. Isn't it okay to do business normally and make money from rich people?"
"Little prince, how come you have become Liu Mingqi's slave? Are you still a proud Shiwei person?"
"Let's talk about the matter. I am refuting your wrong point of view. Even if I end up facing off against Mr. Liu on the battlefield, this does not hinder my respect for him!"
"Tch! I think you can be soft-hearted, but you can't be ruthless!"
""
The two started arguing here.
The two people next to me felt a little headache.
Liu Mingqi is really powerful. He can cause conflicts between two allies even before he comes out to speak.
Fortunately, Liu Mingqi cannot participate in government affairs, otherwise it would bring huge hidden dangers to the two countries¡¯ ambitions of conquest!
