Age of Empires: Beginning Reincarnation as Prince of Qin

Chapter 18 The transaction is complete.

After the Qin and Tang Dynasties concluded the alliance, the 30 troops of the Han Dynasty stationed on the border of the Han and Tang Dynasties have also withdrawn.

Obviously, with Daqin's deterrence, the big man no longer dared to act rashly.

All the six countries can laugh at the shabbyness of Daqin, but no one dares to ignore Daqin's military strength.

The Han Dynasty died down, and the transaction between Qin and Tang was already underway.

Qin and Han borders.

Han soil, Jiujiang County.

Between the Qin and Han Dynasties, it was separated by a big river, and this big river was called Jiujiang.

On both sides of the river, there is a county in Qin and Han Dynasties.The county of Han soil is called Jiujiang County, and it is garrisoned by Jiujiang Wang Yingbu, a famous general of the Han Dynasty.And Qin Tu's side is called Longjiang County, which is garrisoned by Nei Shi Teng, a veteran of the Qin Dynasty.

The terrain of the Qin-Han border is very special, being isolated by the Jiujiang River.But above Jiujiang, there are three islands.The most peculiar thing is that the three islands are connected together by a natural raised corridor.In Jiujiang, a natural bridge is formed.

Whoever controls these three islands is tantamount to controlling the communication arteries between Qin and Han, as well as the trade between Qin and Han.

Now, all three islands are under the control of Daqin.

Originally, Daqin controlled two of these three islands and Dahan controlled one, but a war between Qin and Han seven years ago caused Dahan to lose the only island they controlled.

Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was born as a hooligan. Therefore, bullying the weak and fearing the hard with one hand can be said to be a perfect game.

In the past ten years, Dahan has fought a total of thirteen major battles for external expansion.Among the thirteen great battles, twelve were launched against Datang.

Only in the battle seven years ago, the big man took the initiative to tease Daqin, and it was also in this battle that the big man lost the only island he controlled on the Jiujiang River.

It was also this battle that let the big man know what Jiu Jiu Lao Qin is.After this battle, the frontiers of the Qin and Han Dynasties have been stable for seven years.

Big man.

Jiujiang County.

At this time, on the way to Jiujiang Langqiao, a large caravan with thousands of people escorting more than [-] large carriages.

The ruts left by the carriage were very deep. Obviously, there must be some heavy load on the carriage.

A green flag was planted on each carriage, and the word Cui was written on the green flag.

Cui's caravan, this is the largest caravan in Datang.

And behind the Cui family's caravan, there is a behemoth Qinghe Cui family.

The Great Tang was hostile to the Great Han, but the caravans of the great Tang dynasties were able to move freely within the territory of the Great Han.

This is also the reason why the missions of the Tang Dynasty to the Great Qin would disguise themselves as caravans and enter the territory of the Great Qin.

The reason why Datang's caravans can move freely in the territory of the Han Dynasty is precisely because of the word "benefit".

The Great Han Dynasty and the Great Qin Dynasty are very similar. They both focus on farming and warfare, and their handicrafts, industry and commerce are not well developed.

The reason why the Great Han is richer than the Great Qin is because the land is more fertile than the Great Qin, and secondly, it is radiated by the Great Tang.

Allowing the Tang caravan to carry out trade in the territory of the Han Dynasty made the Han Dynasty rich in a short period of time.

Moreover, the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty have this one thing in common, that is, the imperial power is restricted.

Those who restricted the imperial power of the Tang Dynasty were the aristocratic families in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.However, it was the many kings with different surnames that restricted the imperial power of the Han Dynasty during the founding period of the Han Dynasty.

It is precisely because of the extremely similar reasons between the two countries that even when the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty were fighting hard, the trade between the two countries was still going on.

The front line is fighting to the death, and the rear is making a lot of money.

Even Emperor Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty could not stop this kind of trade and could only acquiesce.To cut off the trade is to touch the cakes of the powerful families of the Tang Dynasty and the kings of different surnames like the Dahan.

With the weakening of the imperial power, these people have to be fed so that they can keep themselves safe, otherwise they will rebel.

What Qinghe Cui's caravan transported were three thousand sets of bright light armor and one thousand Mo knives traded with Daqin.

On the territory of the Great Han, they were transporting armor and weapons for the Great Qin in such a grand manner, without any cover.

This is the confidence of the Great Tang clan!

The cyan Cui flag on the caravan was their protective umbrella. With this flag, the Han army in the places they passed along the way would not embarrass them, but would protect them.

If the Datang caravan had an accident in the territory of the Great Han, then the clan of the Great Tang would cut off business from the Great Han.Once the business is cut off, the interests of the big Han kings with different surnames will be touched.

In the eyes of these kings with different surnames, their own interests are above the national interests.

Jiujiang.

Anyuan Island.

After Daqin occupied the three islands in the Jiujiang Corridor, they unified the names of these three islands, Zhenyuan, Pingyuan, and Anyuan.

This time, the location of the transaction was set at Anyuan Island.Although Anyuan Island is closer to Jiujiang of Dahan, there are [-] troops garrisoned on the island.

In addition, Wang Li personally came to trade with horses, accompanied by a thousand soldiers.

Today, there are four thousand Qin troops stationed on Anyuan Island.

There has been no war between Great Qin and Great Han for many years, so Wang Li is more or less lax.

Unbeknownst to Wang Li, a conspiracy against Daqin was brewing.

At noon, Cui's caravan arrived at Anyuan Island through the Jiujiang Corridor.

On the island, in addition to the garrison, there are also places for businessmen to rest and rest.

"My eldest grandson Wuji, who is General Wang?" In the Cui family's caravan, a white-robed man in his twenties came out and cupped his hands towards Qin Jun.

"I am Wang Li!" Wang Li strode out and bowed back to Changsun Wuji.

After seeing Wang Li, Changsun Wuji took something from the carriage behind him, and said to Wang Li, "General Wang, this is the covenant signed by the Emperor Tang of my family, and I ask General Wang Li to deliver it to the Emperor Qin himself!"

Among the things that Changsun Wuji brought this time, apart from the covenant, there was also a letter written by Tang Emperor Li Yuan.

In the letter, Li Yuan urged Fusu to send a welcoming mission to Datang to meet Princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang as soon as possible.

In this way, the Qin and Tang dynasties became in-laws, and this alliance could be unbreakable.

After all, this refers to the covenant, which is actually nothing.It can even be said that being a straw paper is too much for your ass.

Since ancient times, the most reliable covenant between countries is marriage.

"My lord, grandson, don't worry, Wang Li will definitely hand over the things to my Majesty!" Wang Li said, handing the letter and covenant to his generals, ordering them to be put away.

After the two parties exchanged simple greetings, the transaction began.The process of this transaction is also very simple. It is nothing more than one side counting the armor and weapons, and the other side counting the horses.

However, after all, the amount was huge, and after counting it, it was already evening.

"My lord, are you going to rest on the island tonight and leave tomorrow?" Wang Li asked politely.

"No need to trouble, I wait for the caravan to travel north and south, and I have the habit of walking this night." Before Changsun Wuji could speak, Cui's steward of the caravan behind him hurriedly waved his hand and said.
