Great Wei has such a magical tool, if war is not used to contain it now, then in 30 to [-] years, they will die.
Just like before, the Great Wei was so weak that its foundation was almost gone. The Chuyuan Dynasty and the Tuxie Dynasty only made the barbarians disgusted by the Great Wei.
Even the Yuan Dynasty secretly helped Wei some.
Everything you do is for balance.
What the Tuxie Dynasty and the Chuyuan Dynasty did was indeed no problem, but it was from their point of view.
From the perspective of Great Wei, the two dynasties basically controlled Great Wei and did not want war chaos.
However, everything is moving in the best direction.
The Great Wei handed over the second-grade Shenwu cannon, and the war between the two dynasties ended, and everyone developed in harmony in Zhongzhou. Hello, hello, hello, everyone.
"Great Wei Shengen, I will never forget it, thank you Your Majesty."
Prince Tuxie didn't say anything, just knelt on the ground, bowed to the empress, and at the same time seemed extraordinarily excited.
The same is true for Prince Chuyuan, the two princes were extremely excited.
However, in the hall, the empress' voice continued to sound.
"Since it is the second rank, the sincerity of the Great Wei has been shown, and the sincerity of the two dynasties must also be present."
"I ordered the Ministry of Households to make a new list. Let's wait and see. If you can accept it, the Shenwu cannon will be handed over to the two dynasties. If you can't accept it, discuss it again."
The empress spoke.
Soon, Gu Yan, Minister of the Household Department, took out a thick list of supplies and handed it to the two princes.
Facing the empress' request, the two princes didn't feel anything at all.
And although it looks thicker this time than last time, it's not a big problem, isn't it just a need for resources?
It's just that when the two princes took the list of supplies and turned a page, they were stunned.
This is not a material list, this is a material list.
"Your Majesty, this..."
Prince Tuxie was a little confused, and looked at the empress.
The latter said nothing.
Hubu Shangshu Gu Yan pointed to the list of several cars outside.
"The two princes, the second-rank cannon, is of great significance. The Great Wei only has one first-rank cannon. In other words, the great Wei has already given the national weapon to the two dynasties, and what he wants is peace in the world."
"However, the cost of these two mighty cannons is an astronomical figure. The list of these materials has also been calculated in detail. Dawei didn't earn a penny, and it was completely cost price."
"If the two dynasties feel that it is unreasonable, they can refine it by themselves, and the Great Wei will never stop it. If they need help, the Great Wei will also send master craftsmen to help the two dynasties."
Gu Yan's tone was calm, the transaction was inevitable, so naturally he would make a lot of money.
The three-tier fetish cannon is the same price.
The price of the second-grade Shenwu Cannon is definitely not the same.
What he said was also true, the Great Wei only had one mighty cannon, which could not be said in theory, but the effect of saying it was good, and it confuses the enemy.
Anyway, the two dynasties would not believe it.
Facing Hubu Shangshu's words, the two princes glanced at each other, and then began to look through the list of materials.
After about a quarter of an hour.
The two princes were slightly relieved. Although there were a lot of supplies, they didn't hurt the root cause. To put it bluntly, they just emptied the treasury.
Things like money and silver will not affect the foundation, at worst, tighten your pants and wait for three to five years.
Therefore, the two princes just pondered for a while before giving an answer.
"May I ask Your Majesty, when will it be delivered?"
they asked.
"According to the materials on the list, when will they be transported to the capital of Great Wei, and when will they be delivered."
The empress is also very straightforward, it seems that she really won't delay any longer.
After getting this answer, everyone nodded in satisfaction. This is no big problem.
"Three days later, our dynasty will definitely transport all the supplies to the territory of Great Wei."
"It's the same with me."
The two princes answered.
"Okay, since that's the case, then this matter is settled."
The queen nodded.
Soon, the two princes resigned and began to prepare a list of resources.
Wait for the two to back off.
The hall was quiet for a long time, and after half an hour, a courtier finally couldn't help but speak.
"Your Majesty, just give them the Shenwu Cannon like this?"
It was a Marquis, he was a little unwilling, and couldn't help asking.
Just as soon as these words were said, the voice of the empress also sounded.
"It's just a second-grade Shenwu cannon. Giving it to them will not have much impact on Wei. At least in ten years, they will not be able to make a first-grade Shenwu cannon."
She is very confident, which is also true. There is a huge difference between the second grade and the first grade.
She even dared to say that within a few decades, the two dynasties would not be able to develop a first-grade martial arts cannon.
But these words cannot be said so absolutely, after all, the power of the whole country is unimaginable.
"But no matter what, if this thing is handed over, it will be bad for Dawei after all."
The latter continued to speak.
"How about that?"
At that moment, the Empress frowned slightly, looked at the other party and asked back.
After saying this, all the officials understood that Ji Ling was a little angry.
But the latter still seemed a little reluctant.
"Why do you have to give in? Can't you declare war? What is Wei afraid of?"
"It might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to annihilate the two dynasties and unify Central Continent in one fell swoop."
He was obviously a little unconvinced and said some angry words.
But as soon as he said this, someone stopped him immediately, and An Guogong immediately stood up and scolded angrily.
"No nonsense."
"How can a major war matter be such a trifle?"
An Guogong came forward and reprimanded him. The latter bowed his head immediately, but he was still a little bit dissatisfied.
on the dragon chair.
The empress looked at all this indifferently, and then she did not reprimand the other party, but stood up and said.
"Not fighting, is the meaning of the king of peace."
"Shenwu Cannon was refined by the King of Pingchao. I think that neither the dear ones nor I have much power to decide this transaction."
After saying this, the empress turned and left, and did not stay here any longer.
The courtiers all chose to remain silent.
Soon, a doubt appeared in everyone's mind.
That is, where did Xu Qingxiao go, and why did he not show up for so long?
It has been almost two months before and after, and there is no movement at all. Does it take such a long time to retreat?
No one can give an answer to the doubts of the officials.
Two hours later.
The Tuxie Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty each received news.
Regarding Wei's response, the two dynasties also began to discuss immediately.
Tuxie Dynasty.
In the hall.
It is noon, and the golden sun is in the sky.
In the main hall, when the news came back, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Tuxie Baiguan was also afraid that Wei would continue to delay, or declare war directly.
They are not afraid that they will not be able to fight, but they are afraid that once the war breaks out, it will not be a good thing for Tuxie.
What's the point of winning?
With the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole following, the more chaos in Central Continent, the better it would be for the forces in other places.
After the three major dynasties have fought cleanly and have no foundation, won't Dongzhou, Nanzhou, Xizhou, and Beizhou be ready to move?
Now, that's the best news.
Not fighting is a good thing for everyone.
However, at this moment, the voice of Tuxie Hubu Shangshu couldn't help but sound.
"Your Majesty, the materials proposed by Wei are a little too much, right?"
Hubu Shangshu opened his mouth and said the list had been sent to the hall. He just casually browsed through some of them and felt that something was wrong.
"It's okay."
On the dragon chair, Emperor Tuxie spoke, he was very domineering, and spoke slowly.
"It is enough that Wei is willing to give us the second-grade divine martial arts cannon. Let the Ministry of Industry start researching the second-grade divine martial arts cannon. We must research the first-grade divine martial arts cannon as soon as possible."
Emperor Tuxie opened his mouth, what he cares about is not resources, but Shenwu Cannon.
As soon as these words were said, all the ministers nodded.
But soon, Minister of the Ministry of Industry couldn't help but speak.
"Your Majesty, in fact, the second-grade Shenwu Cannon is a second-grade cannon after all. If you want to research it, it will be extremely difficult within ten years."
"Now that Great Wei has the Zhongzhou Dragon Cauldron, it can be said that everyone is like a dragon. If we give them ten years to develop, even if I refine a first-grade martial arts cannon, it will be meaningless."
"The ore and iron needed to refine this kind of important weapon of the country are naturally extremely precious. It may be difficult to refine ten or hundreds of them. Your Majesty, I will take out so many resources to exchange for a Shenwu cannon. Is it really worth it?"
Minister of the Ministry of Industry lowered his head and said so.
At that moment, the courtiers of Tuxie couldn't help looking at Emperor Tuxie curiously.
Shenwu Cannon is important, but it is meaningless to exchange so many resources.
You say that they are willing to change to a first-grade one, but they will definitely not be happy to change it to a second-grade one and use it for research.
Unless it is said that once the second-grade Shenwu Cannon is obtained, the first-grade cannon can be refined within a year or two, which is still useful, otherwise, it is of little significance.
"Do not."
Emperor Tuxie shook his head. He sat on the dragon chair, looked at the ministers, and then spoke slowly.
"Second rank is just a test to test whether Da Wei is willing to fight. If Da Wei really dares to fight, it doesn't matter whether he has a second rank. If Da Wei is unwilling to fight, it means that Da Wei dare not fight. "
"They have scruples."
"I asked for the second-grade Shenwu cannon, it was just a test. When the Shenwu cannon arrives, I will go to the Ministry of Industry to study it. I can refine the first-grade Shenwu cannon within three years. Everything is easy to say."
"But if within three years, you can't research a first-grade divine martial arts cannon, then ask Da Wei for a first-grade divine martial arts cannon."
Emperor Tuxie opened his mouth, and he explained the reason.
But when he said this, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty couldn't help but frown.
It costs such a high price to get a second grade, even at the cost of [-] elite lives.
