    ??

    After a long time, Wang Xiaolin followed up in despair.  Huang Mingjun's words made his heart sink to the bottom of the sea.  He knew very well that at this time, there was nothing he could do. The only thing he could do was to pray that the Sui army would not be too greedy.

    Wang Xiaolin returned to the cabin, and Cai Zhiyun, who was sitting on the main seat, said: "Baekje envoy, if I am willing, tens of thousands of troops can follow the collapse of the city wall and enter the city. I don't believe Baekje can stop it."

    Wang Xiaolin wanted to say a few hard words at this time, at least to show the determination of the people of Baekje to share the same hatred.  But in the end, he didn't dare to say anything. He was firm, but he was afraid that it would lead to revenge from the Sui army, and the gain would outweigh the loss.

    At this time, Cai Zhiyun said again: "I can not destroy Baekje, nor send people to attack the city. But at least you can give me a reasonable result, a result that the tens of thousands of troops under me can accept. I want to use the sentence 'misunderstanding'  'It would be really humiliating for me to resolve this matter."

    Wang Xiaolin hurriedly said: "General, please rest assured. A truce is the common wish of both sides. Once the war resumes, life will be ruined. Although the Sui army is strong, there will always be losses, which neither side wants to see. Regarding the misunderstanding between the two sides this time, I  The Lord is willing to do his best to express sincerity, and only hopes that the two countries can coexist peacefully and be as close as one family."

    Cai Zhiyun nodded and set out his own conditions.

    "First point, in the first year of Kaihuang's reign, the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty conferred the title of King Weide of Baekje as the Commander-in-Chief of Shangkaifu Yitong Sansi. From then on, Baekje was a vassal state of the Sui Dynasty. Today, Baekje is a vassal state of the Sui Dynasty.  Ji attacked the Sui Dynasty because of the following crimes. They were complicit in conspiracy and should have been killed. However, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty was kind and let you go. However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. The king of Baekje needs to choose a day to go to Luoyang to pay homage to the emperor.  , and the traitors in Baekje must be punished. Baekje must also immediately send the prince to the Sui Dynasty to be held hostage.

    From now on, all people in Baekje must speak Chinese, use Chinese characters, wear Han clothes, and practice Han rituals, and this will not be disobeyed.  "

    Wang Xiaolin was shocked. It was not up to the Sui Dynasty to have the final say on who the traitors in the country were. He was afraid that in the future, the country would be full of people close to the Sui Dynasty.

    As for the pilgrimage and surrender, Wang Xiaolin had already considered it.

    As for the requirements of speaking Chinese, using Chinese characters, wearing Han clothes, and practicing Han etiquette, Wang Xiaolin did not quite understand the Sui people's intentions.  But at this time, the culture of the Central Plains was more attractive to surrounding countries than the American culture of later generations, so he actually looked forward to integrating into the Chinese culture.

    "The second point is that since it is a vassal state, it must fulfill its obligations as a vassal state. Baekje has never paid tribute before, and it will pay tribute every year in the future. It should pay 80 million yuan, 5,000 pieces of silk, and 50,000 pieces of cloth.  Hundreds of beauties.

    ??And this time Baekje defected, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be avoided.  Today, the entire south of the Zhu River has been destroyed by the Baekje people and needs to be rebuilt. The tens of thousands of soldiers who died in the battle also need to be compensated.  All these expenses must be paid by Baekje.  I made a rough estimate and found that it would cost about three hundred thousand yuan.  Of course, Baekje may not have so much cash, and if it is insufficient, it can be exchanged in kind.  "

    Wang Xiaolin almost knelt on the ground after hearing this.  Three hundred thousand yuan is not enough even if Baekje is sold.  What is this concept? Three hundred million yuan is equivalent to three million yuan, and Daye's tax income in the early years is almost 5.6 million yuan.

    Of course, asking for a high price and then paying back the money while asking for such a large amount of money is also for the purpose of bargaining.

    ¡°But Wang Xiaolin couldn¡¯t pay back the price.  It's like he originally wanted to buy a pound of meat for 20 yuan. If you ask for 50 yuan, we can still talk about it, but if you ask for 20,000 yuan, what will he do?

    Of course, you don¡¯t have to buy it, but you have to buy it, which is really embarrassing.

    Wang Xiaolin had no choice but to plead: "Baekje is a poor country and the country is weak. We really cannot afford such a large compensation. Please forgive us."

    Cai Zhiyun asked: "How much money does Baekje want?"

    Wang Xiaolin couldn¡¯t figure out how much money he would pay.  Of course, he did not dare to refuse, so he had to say: "With the national power of Baekje, we can only provide 30 million in money and materials."

    "thirty million?"

    Cai Zhiyun was so angry that he laughed, "This is just one percent."

    "What about the annual payment?"

    "One million dollars a year and one thousand pieces of cloth."

    Cai Zhiyun kicked over the table in front of him and said loudly: "Your Majesty is entertaining me now, so why talk about it? Just beat him!"

    "General, calm down! General, calm down!"

    Cai Zhiyun pointed at Wang Xiaolin's nose and said: "I know you can't make the decision, so go back and ask Fuyu Zhang. I'll give you one day. If you can't come up with a result that satisfies me by this time tomorrow, then  Just wait for my army to break through the city."

    After saying that, he didn¡¯t care about the lost Wang Xiaolin, turned around and left.

    "General! General!"

    Wang Xiaolin shouted loudly, but how could he stop him?? side.

    The guards sent Wang Xiaolin out of the cabin. Wang Xiaolin walked to the side of the ship and looked at the broken walls of Sixian City. Thinking about the results of today's mission, blood surged up in an instant, and he was ready to jump off the bow of the ship and die for his country.

    At this time, Huang Mingjun suddenly appeared next to Wang Xiaolin and held Wang Xiaolin's hand.

    "Your Majesty, please pay attention to your steps and be careful of slippery roads. This mistake will be regretted for eternity!"

    Wang Xiaolin was suddenly awakened, and when he looked at the water below his feet, he felt dizzy, but he no longer had the desire to die.

    However, Wang Xiaolin reacted quickly. He gave a graceful salute and replied to Huang Mingjun: "Thank you, General, for reminding me! General, you are kind. Please give me some kind words for Baekje. I am a small country with few things, so I really can't take it."  So much wealth."

    Huang Mingjun said: "I know it's not easy to be a king, but if you make a mistake, you have to punish someone no matter what. There is no price for making mistakes, so how can you alert yourself, or you will make it again in the future? General Cai doesn't really want you.  You took so many things, but why can't you try your best to show your sincerity? What the officers and soldiers of the three armies want is to destroy the city, because then they can capture and gain military exploits. If you can't give them military exploits, then you can't even give them the seizures?  "

    Wang Xiaolin's heart tightened. The Sui people were going to empty out Baekje's treasury.

    "this¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤"

    Before Wang Xiaolin finished speaking, Huang Mingjun said again: "Don't always look at your corner, but look at the long term. This battle is not over yet, but Silla is still there.

    General Cai just left without saying the third point. From now on, the King of Baekje will order all the troops of Baekje to obey the command of the Sui Dynasty and attack Silla until the war is over.

    King Envoy, you lost a lot in this battle, but maybe you will gain more after the war than you lost.  "After saying that, he left without waiting for Wang Xiaolin's reaction.

    Only Wang Xiaolin was left there, dumbfounded.

    Wang Xiaolin walked off the Sui ship worriedly, his heart full of desolation.  The Sui Dynasty wanted to squeeze all Baekje out, and then use the Baekje people to deal with the Silla people.

    But what can Baekje do? If the country is weak, it must be controlled by others. Now that the country is about to perish, there is no need to talk about its future and destiny.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
