"Is to worry about Wang Daren you bad king confessed to you to come up with this compromise …"
In just a few tens of seconds, Wang’s facial expression has changed several times like the weather …
Surprise, anger, injustice, doubt …
Finally, directly with a look of disbelief, he asked, "General Zhao, you keep your word … you really helped the North Korean army train ten thousand musketeers and sell us new musketeers and artillery …"
Without thinking, Zhao Yun affirmed, "You will keep your word … if you agree, you will leave five hundred musketeers elite to help you train musketeers … and you will need silver to buy the corresponding new musketeers and artillery … if you are willing to pay as much as you want, you can buy as much as you want …"
Hearing this result, Wang Daren was directly lost in thought.
After some hesitation, Zhao Yun asks, "Is there too many General Zhao’s five hundred people … it takes one hundred people …"
Zhaoyun shook his head and retorted, "Five hundred people are not much at all. You should know that there are not only musketeers but also artillery among the five hundred people … Only fifty North Korean troops can be assigned to a musketeer for training …"
Speaking of which, Zhaoyun seems to have thought of something and said with an epiphany, "You must be worried that five hundred butch troops stationed in Pyongyang will affect Pyongyang’s safety …"
"Don’t you north Korean army so have no confidence even afraid of five hundred butch army … If so, it will be to leave you more musketeers for training and ten thousand north Korean army can’t become a real elite …"
"However, in order to relieve your concerns, there will be another idea. Five hundred musketeers do have a certain fighting capacity, but once they are dispersed, they will not have much fighting capacity. So you can disperse five hundred musketeers to ten thousand North Korean troops to carry out special training for deputy generals at all levels …
"So you have no worries …"
As soon as Wang Daren’s eyes lit up, he was going to agree
However, the North Korean negotiator tried his best to suppress this excitement and calmly replied, "General Zhao has to ask the king for permission for such a big thing. I have to report to the king and wait for the king’s reply …"
Speaking of which, Wang Daren seems to think of something …
Zhao Yun continued to ask, "I don’t know what price the Tiger and Leopard Army bought me a new North Korean musket … North Korea’s limited national strength of 12 million silver can definitely be called to pay all the wealth of North Korea. If the price of the new musket is too high, North Korea will bear it …"
Zhaoyun seems ready for this problem.
The other person stared at the calm face and flashed a confident smile directly.
Chapter six hundred and thirty-six Behind the plot
Facing Zhao Yun’s face and smiling, the North Korean negotiator was not happy but had a chill in his heart …
Because every time Zhao Yun reveals this smile during the whole negotiation process, it means that North Korea once again falls into the calculation of the other side.
Not only that, but the other side’s calculations are still north Korea on the surface …
However, even if you know that the other side is calculating North Korea, you have to accept it.
Because there are only 20,000 remnants in front of the powerful Tiger Leopard Army, the Tiger Leopard Army has lost the money to bargain with the Tiger Leopard Army …
Thought of here, this so-called Wang Daren’s face can reveal a heartfelt wry smile.
Looking at zhaoyun waiting for Zhao Yunwen …
Didn’t let Wang Daren wait too long zhaoyun continued to say …
"North Korea has no silver … but there is one thing to exchange for silver …"
"As far as we know, North Korea, especially North Korea, has a large number of iron mines … If you want North Korea to take out one or two of them, you can get all the firearms that 10,000 musketeers need from our Tiger and Leopard Army."
"Iron ore for muskets …" Hearing this idea, Wang Daren’s worries directly disappeared, and at the same time, a little doubt followed to his face.
In Wang Daren’s eyes, the whole North Korea has hundreds of iron mines, large and small. Even if one or two are given to the Tiger and Leopard Army, it will have no impact on the whole North Korea.
Not only that, but Wang Daren doesn’t know the specific price of the new musket of Tiger and Leopard Army.
But a hundred taels of silver is definitely available.
As for iron ore, someone can dig as many as they want, which is not worth much money.
It is impossible to exchange these two completely unequal things without doubt.
But Zhao Yun, who has his own ideas in his heart, gave a very positive answer without thinking.
"Yes, the iron ore is exchanged for muskets … you give me the Maoshan iron ore, and the butch army will give North Korea all firearms that can be equipped with 10,000 elites … but it’s not negotiable to ensure that the iron ore is safe, and the butch army must be stationed in the iron ore with less troops to protect it …"
The North Korean negotiator left Pyongyang for the whole negotiation with a puzzled and excited expression, and the seventh division commander directly asked all kinds of questions in his heart.
"I can understand that the commander should end the fighting as soon as possible and ask North Korea for silver compensation, otherwise we would have fought in vain in attacking North Korea … but I don’t understand why we should sell muskets to their opponents to increase their fighting capacity. Not only that, we also left musketeers to help them train troops directly …"
Zhaoyun shook his head and replied, "I will be as puzzled as you when I just saw the report giving these requirements, but I will find that what I will see is superficial after I have read the report and explained it …"
"On the surface, having firearms and having been trained by us has enhanced the fighting capacity of the Korean army, but during the whole training process, the influence of our tiger and leopard army in the Korean army will become heavier and heavier …"
"As time goes by, I believe that it won’t be long before this North Korean army equipped with firearms will be completely controlled by our Tiger and Leopard Army …"
"Not only that, but we can also control the North Korean economy and tax revenue bit by bit through these muskets."
"We all know that it is very expensive. Of course, this expensive means not only buying, but also maintaining and making …"
"But it can be said that if it weren’t for deep pockets, not many countries would dare to buy a large number of firearms … because firearms are too expensive …"
"According to my training method of Tiger and Leopard Army, 10,000 musketeers will consume all kinds of lead bullets and gunpowder worth 12,000 silver in just one year. Of course, this is only the consumption of muskets, not including artillery. If the artillery is counted, the ammunition needs to consume 52,000 silver every year …"
"Fifty-two thousand silver is not much, but this is just …"
"We will agree to sell the muskets to the North Korean army, but we will never sell our muskets."
"The musket barrel will be scrapped after we hit three hundred lead shots in our hands, and we are going to sell it to the North Koreans. The life of the musket barrel is up to one hundred lead shots … that is to say, the musket barrel will be scrapped after shooting one hundred times in a row …"
"And this kind of barrel can’t be made by anyone but I, Tiger and Leopard Army, that is to say, if the North Korean army wants to ensure the combat effectiveness of this musketeer, it must be purchased from us. According to the calculation that a musketeer needs two barrels a year, ten thousand musketeers need two spare barrels a year to change into silver, which is almost one million five hundred and two thousand …"
To put it more bluntly, this musket soldier will become the whole burden of North Korea after he becomes an army, and he can’t throw it away if he wants to.
