Chapter 6739: : 1 Do everything cheap

As an important official of Jin State, Jia Xu has won the trust of the emperor of Jin State. It is said that Jin State needs important plans and has a great relationship with Jia Xu. Jia Xu in the court has a pivotal position.

Being able to become king in the Jin Kingdom itself proves Jia Xu's extraordinary ability.

"When I came to Chang'an this time, Jia Shangshu helped me a lot. Rest in peace, I am very grateful. Without Jia Shangshu, it would not be easy for the envoy to complete this mission smoothly." Anadoshan sighed .

Jia Xu said with a smile: "The emissary is polite. Anxi has a good relationship with Jin. His Majesty has praised King Anxi a lot. The two sides have close contacts. It is of great benefit to Jin and Anxi."

"The words of the Shangshu are very true. The Anxi Empire will definitely not conflict with the Jin Kingdom." Anadoshan said: "It is a pity that the Roman side is eyeing and wants to seize the city of Anxi."

Speaking of this, Anadoshan quietly took a look at Jia Xu, but saw Jia Xu's face was calm, and there was nothing unusual.

"The envoys don't need to worry too much. Although the strength of the Roman Empire is strong, the power of the Jin State is not inferior. With the support of the Holy One, even if the Roman Empire gathers troops to attack, the Holy Majesty will not stand idly by." Jia Xu said in a deep voice. road.

Anadoshan got up and said: "With Jia Shangshu's words, I feel relieved."

The envoys of the Anxi Empire will inevitably have more worries about the future development of the situation.

Compared with the Roman Empire, the threat posed by the strength of the Jin army is even greater.

However, from seeing the emperor of Jin and some important officials of Jin, it is not difficult to see that Jin at this time has no more plans for war. After experiencing the Battle of Guishuang, the consumption of Jin's national power , which is obviously relatively large.

What's more, the state of Jin is in the midst of rapid development at this time. If the momentum of development cannot be maintained well, it will not be of greater benefit to the stability of the state of Jin.

The Jin State did get many benefits during the war, and these benefits have significantly helped the improvement of the Jin State's influence.

But in terms of stability and development after the war, it will also consume Jin's huge energy.

The damage caused by the war cannot be eliminated overnight. The emperor of the Jin State is an unimaginable means for ordinary people, which also brings more help to the rapid development of the Jin State. However, the Jin State still needs a lot of buffer time.

What makes the rest of the high-level helpless is that the Roman Empire will have more ideas about the Parthian Empire. Who made the Parthian Empire lose its troops on the battlefield of Guishuang, and let the Roman Empire see an opportunity.

That night, Anadoshan stayed in the Shangshu Mansion.

The Roman envoy who heard the news was not at peace. He had been in Chang'an for a long time. He knew Jia Xu's way of doing things. It can be said that Jia Xu was a very low-key important minister of Jin.

However, Jia Xu's meeting with the peace envoy gave him a sense of foreboding.

Not to mention, it is an out-and-out fact that the alliance between the Anxi Empire and the Jin Kingdom is more stable.

However, the price paid by the Parthian Empire when it interacted with Jin was unprecedented. Even the Roman envoys were shocked when they found out. The Parthian Empire, which has never shown weakness, actually made concessions, and paid three The price of the city.

This made the high-level officials of the Roman Empire jealous, and it also proved from the side that the Parthian Empire's strength was greatly reduced after experiencing the war in Guishuang.

After coming to Chang'an for a period of time, the Roman envoys had a different view. The Parthian Empire did suffer a lot of losses during the war, and it was more awe of the mighty strength of the Jin State.

Seeing the combat weapons of the Jin army and knowing more about the glory of the Jin army made the Roman envoys feel panic.

This is also the reason why the Roman envoys couldn't wait to strengthen the relationship with the Jin State. It was the Roman envoys who made the decision in advance to buy materials such as three-eyed guns and artillery from the Jin State.

The Roman envoy believed that when these weapons of war appeared in the Roman Empire, they would definitely attract the attention of the high-level empire.

The people of the Roman Empire have always attached great importance to war. What an honor it is for the proud Roman Legion to sweep across the battlefield. It is precisely because of its extremely strong strength that the Roman Empire has a detached position in the surrounding area.

Once such a position is shaken, the consequences are often unacceptable.

The emperor of the Jin Kingdom obviously had reservations about his support for the Parthian Kingdom, which was also an important reason for the Roman envoys to feel more at ease.

As expected by the Roman envoy, news came from the empire that they spared no effort to befriend the Jin State and try to get as many of the Jin State's combat weapons as possible. As for the materials needed to exchange the Jin State's combat weapons, they are already on their way to Guishuang .

The powerful Roman Empire has shown high efficiency in this matter.

The news mainly transmitted by Roman envoys is too terrifying. If these weapons of war really exist in large numbers in Jin, it will have more impact on the army of the Roman Empire.

Of course, many high-level officials of the Roman Empire were skeptical about this matter, and they thought it was an exaggeration.

The outstanding strength of the Jin army is good, because they did not encounter the Roman legion on the battlefield.

Although the elites of the Roman Empire and the Jin army had the experience of competing with each other in the past, it was a small-scale confrontation and could not represent the outcome of a war.

However, the monarch of the Roman Empire still chose to believe the news from the envoy. At worst, the Roman Empire lost some supplies. If these news were true, the impact on the situation would be too great, even launching a war against the Parthian Empire. , which requires extra caution.

The pursuit of war is to maximize benefits. If one's own side cannot get more benefits, but instead has more losses on the battlefield, such wars have no more meaning at all.

The Roman Empire was able to have today's glory, and it took a lot of effort itself. Like the high-level officials of the Jin Dynasty, the Roman Empire would also have careful planning and deployment at the beginning of the war.

After getting the confirmed news, the Roman envoys started to move again in the city.

There is an endless stream of vehicles coming and going in the craftsmen's workshops outside Chang'an City, but the checks that these carriages are subjected to are extremely strict, no matter where the carriages come from.

Those who are interested will find that among the carriages coming out of the craftsman's workshop, there are many vehicles that are very cumbersome, and the destination of these vehicles seems to be the place of railway transportation.

And these goods are exactly the combat weapons that the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire want to buy.

Ordinary people naturally don't worry about these things more. They live in the stable and strong Jin country, which is the greatest happiness for them.

The powerful state of Jin shows a thriving side, and the sense of belonging of the people in the country has reached an unprecedented height.

This is due to the fact that they have a wise and powerful emperor. Although the war will bring a lot of burdens to the Jin State, after the war, the Jin State can quickly ease from the war, and then make the Jin State even stronger. That's another matter.

The senior officials of the Jin State naturally know more about the exchanges between the Jin State, the Roman Empire, and the Parthian Empire. Many officials expressed concern. After all, there have been conflicts between the Parthian Empire and the Jin State before. More help may be detrimental to Jin's rule in Guishuang.

In particular, the Anxi Empire gave up three important cities. Such things cannot be let go in any empire. After all, the number of cities and territories determines whether the empire is strong enough, and it is even more related to their future. development of the situation.

However, the emperor of the Jin State resisted all opinions on such matters, and exchanged supplies with the combat weapons of the Jin army.

The prestige of the emperor of the state of Jin is determined. When the emperor of the state of Jin and the important officials of the state of Jin decide these things, they can be implemented quickly in the state of Jin.

Moreover, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom was in his prime of life, and he would definitely have a clear judgment on such matters. It is not difficult to see from the behavior style of the emperor of the Jin Kingdom in the past that he would not suffer losses in interactions.

This made some officials secretly speculate whether the Jin army had a more powerful combat weapon.

If we say that the most obvious change brought about by the emperor of the Jin Kingdom is the improvement of the equipment of the lieutenants and soldiers, this provides a more solid guarantee for the Jin army's victory in the war, and it also enables the Jin army to fight back and forth again and again. Get greater achievements in tough wars.

In the imperial palace, the important officials of the empire gathered, and these were important ministers who could determine the direction of the empire's situation.

Seeing Lu Bu appearing, everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted.

At this time, the state of Jin was becoming more and more powerful, and its etiquette was becoming more and more perfect.

Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "You don't need to be too polite."

Looking at these familiar faces, and now acting so cautious in front of him, in fact, Lu Bu also has a sense of loneliness, which is what the superiors must face.

When he was a vassal in the past, Lu Bu could have very close contacts with the civil servants and generals under his rule, and even behave casually in speech and behavior, but as the king of a country, his majesty must be guaranteed.

Of course, Guo Jia, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, showed more casualness in this matter. For this reason, Guo Jia was often impeached by officials of the Ministry of Rites.

"Wenhe, tell me about the situation." Lu Bu turned his attention to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu cupped his hands and said, "My Majesty, now, a covenant has been reached with the envoys of Rome and Anxi, and the supplies to be sold have also been finalized. General Zhao Yun has sent a message that the supplies from Rome and Anxi are on their way."

"Very good." Lu Bu nodded slightly. "This batch of materials will be of great help to the development of Jin."

"What about the construction of the railway?"

"In another two months, we will reach Chigu City. Although the transportation from Chigu City to Guishuang is not as convenient as the railway, it can be completed very quickly." Mi Zhu said.

Railway construction is currently the top priority of Jin State, and this is also related to whether Jin State will take more actions in the future development.

In terms of railway construction and transportation, if greater success can be achieved, there will be greater incentives for the Jin Dynasty.

From the development path of the Jin State in the past, we can see what kind of attitude the Jin State Emperor will have towards the war. It can be said that as long as the Jin State Emperor sees an opportunity, he will not give up easily, precisely because With such a style, Jin will have a greater advantage in development, and it will often make opponents pay a huge price.

The emperor's behavior had a great influence on the civil and military affairs of Jin.

Such a state of Jin displayed great deterrent power, and it was also very difficult to obtain benefits from the state of Jin.

Ordinary officials may not understand the significance of this transaction and alliance, but as important officials of the empire, they are clear, and they know even more that the emperor has thoughts on the Parthian Empire, and even the Roman Empire.

When the state of Jin, which has obtained the land of Guishuang, has gained more development since the end of the war, and if its military strength has been replenished in time, the eyes of the emperor of Jin will turn to the battlefield again.

"That's right, tell Zhao Yun to do everything cheaply," Lu Bu urged.

Jia Xu nodded, "Your Majesty, although General Zhao is in charge of Shuangzhou, this matter is of great importance after all. I request you to go to Shuangzhou."

Lu Bu pondered for a moment and said, "Wen He will definitely be more secure if he goes to Shuangzhou. However, Wen He is in an important position and hastily left Chang'an. If Rome and the envoys of peace find out about it, they will definitely be vigilant."

"Your Majesty, if this subordinate says he won't be sick, after a period of time, he will definitely lower his vigilance." Jia Xu said.

"That's fine, just go to Shuangzhou, the journey is long, Wenhe has worked hard." Lu Bu agreed.

Jia Xu cupped his hands and said, "For the great cause of Jin and for the Holy One, I will do my best."

Seeing that Guo Jia was about to make a move, Lu Bu immediately said, "Wen He said he was sick, but if Feng Xiao said he was sick again, it would be wrong."

The crowd burst into laughter when they heard the words. Ordinarily, Guo Jia gave people the impression that he was bohemian, but when it came to major issues, Guo Jia's ability and means were recognized by them, and the emperor had unconditional love for Guo Jia. Trust, which is not the envy of many officials.

"The planning this time is of great importance, and there must be no omissions in the slightest." Lu Bu warned: "After the new combat weapon is finished, it will be quietly transported to Shuangzhou, especially the craftsman workshop. Anyone who leaks information will be killed without mercy."

Everyone said yes.

It is true that the Jin State has experienced war not long ago, but if it ignores the strength of the Jin army because of this, it would be a big mistake, especially after the land of Guishuang stabilized, a large number of people from the Jin State migrated, making the people of the Jin State Domination will be more stable.

In these aspects, the officials of Jin State have a lot of experience.

As for the consumption caused by the war, the size of the Jin state can fully bear it.

"Your Majesty, the elites of the various ministries of the empire have arrived in Chang'an one after another. Please let me know when the military exercises will start." Guo Jia said.
