Negotiations are difficult. Because the Ming people seem to be not very enthusiastic about this matter. Since the first day of meeting, Ma Chao has never seen Qin Feng again, and he has negotiated directly with him and became the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty Quan Yun.

In Ma Chao's reflection, it seems that the only prime minister of the Ming Dynasty is very interested in a peaceful settlement of the current dispute. The generals who occasionally report to the prime minister all show their fanaticism about war and their indifference to themselves.

They knew that they wanted to end the war when they were here.

War is a hotbed for generals to get promoted and make money. It is even more exciting for a general who has just won a battle. They are eager to win more victories to make them have a greater reputation.

Ma Chao knows this very well.

Especially Chen Zhihua and the brothers Chen Jinhua did not hide their hatred for Qin. This is also what Ma Chao is most worried about. Chen Zhihua can no longer view him as an ordinary general. He is the commander of this army. His judgment and decisions undoubtedly have a huge influence on Qin Feng and Quan Yun.

Chen Zhihua and his family have been fighting with Qin for many years, and the two sides have a deep hatred. If anyone wants to get another knife in Qin, this person will undoubtedly rank first, or have nothing to do with national interests. It is simply the hatred that has been formed between the two sides over the years.

Qin Feng was a maverick emperor. After staying in Zhongping County for a few days, Ma Chao came to this conclusion. In theory, Qin Feng was a horse emperor, but although he was in Zhongping County, he did not directly interfere in the army. Instead, he handed over the control of the army to Chen Zhihua and threw other government affairs to Quan Yun. Instead, he was busy meeting the gentry of Zhongping County or some respected people all day long. It seemed that talking with these people was more important than military and political affairs.

Qin Feng did this directly shortened the time for Quan Yun to negotiate with him. Often, sometimes as he was talking, there were suddenly some urgent matters that needed Quan Yun to deal with, and the negotiations between the two sides had to come to an abrupt end.

Quan Yun looks very polite and does not use his color on Ma Chao because of the hostile attitude of both sides. On the contrary, during the negotiations between the two sides, Quan Yun seemed quite gentle. But this was only limited to personal politeness. Once it involved actual interests, the smiley prime minister was quite powerful. It would be difficult to make him make concessions in some aspects.

What Ma Chao was even more worried about was everything he saw in Zhongping County. The Ming army had been preparing for combat, and logistics supplies were transported to Zhongping County City every day. The warehouses in the city seemed to be unable to accommodate so much food and supplies. The Ming army began to build some simple warehouses outside the city. Not only that, more and more young and strong people gathered here from all over the country to sign up for the army. Unlike the Qin State, in the Ming Dynasty, it was not particularly easy to join the army. It had to go through a series of assessments, and those who passed all aspects of the conditions would be selected.

Ma Chao knew that the military pay of the soldiers in the Ming army was so high that they ranked first among all countries. In Qin Feng's words, what he wanted was an army composed of lions rather than a group of sheep. It was precisely because of this high military pay that countless young and strong people attracted to join the army, but in the end, only about 30% of them were at most. The elimination rate was quite high.

Through this war, Ma Chao saw the power of the Ming Dynasty's policy. The Ming army was at an absolute disadvantage on the three battlefields, but they were the ones who won the final victory. The number of soldiers came from the top and the essence. This sentence seemed very ordinary in the military books, and was fully reflected in the Ming army.

If the army is not large, it can be given extremely high military pay. If the number is not large, it can be equipped with the best weapons, the best armor, and of course, the best training. The Ming army is indeed a lion.

In comparison, the Qin State seemed to have more troops, but compared with the Ming State, they could only be considered wild dogs. The Qin people joined the army because they could not survive, and at least they would not starve to death in the army. However, in the Ming State, soldiers joined the army, but they could support their families and even get rich. This is the biggest difference.

Unfortunately, even if everyone knows the policies of the Ming army, they can't learn them well, and they can't even dare to learn them.

The Ming army now gathered on the border, including three infantry battalions of Hongshui, Jumu, Baoqing, and two cavalry battalions of Yu Chao, one cavalry battalion and the Mahou's Fire Death Battalion. The total force is 20,000. It seems that there are not many, but the combat power is quite terrible. More importantly, there are only 50,000 Qin troops in Qingzhou County, with a maximum of 20,000 elite troops.

Let’s not talk about the huge contrast in morale between the two sides, but only talk about the Qin generals led by Lu Ding, who have no guarantee of resistance.

Qin Feng said it right. How loyal is this army that Deng Hong has led for many years to the court? Are they more loyal to the court or Deng Hong?

Ma Chao dared not bet. If he lost the bet, the Qin army rushed forward, and Qingzhou County was not good, he would fall into his hands. At that time, he was afraid that the wheel of war would never stop again.

As Qin Feng said, if Qingzhou County is lost again, the weakness of Qin will fall into the eyes of the other two countries without any concealment, and it will hurt the matter of hunting in the water. I think everyone likes to do it. Why can't the three families divide Qin?

After staying in Zhongping County until the fifth day, Ma Chao finally couldn't sit still after watching Qin Feng recruit another army of 5,000 people.

Qin Feng did not restrict Ma Chao's freedom of movement in Zhongping County. No matter where Ma Chao went, it would be possible, as long as the Ming Dynasty officials were accompanied. Ma Chao understood that this was also a manifestation of Qin Feng's pressure on him. Qin Feng wanted to make him understand that Ming Dynasty said that he would continue to start a war, not that he was intimidating him, but that he was actually preparing. Everything he saw, food, arms, and newly recruited soldiers all indicate that the possibility that the war would continue to increase.

"I want to see Your Majesty." Ma Chao finally couldn't stand it anymore. Looking at Quan Yun, he made a request.

Quan Yun, who had been laughing at me, smiled even more happily at this time. His Highness, the wise prince of Qin, was finally about to surrender. His Majesty's strategic blackmail was a great success.

Qingzhou County is not allowed for the time being, because the information collected from all aspects shows that the civil strife in Qin will be further escalated. If Qingzhou County is forced to be forced, one of them may help Ma Chao a lot. Then it would be better to do something practical first, and then plot against Qingzhou County when the chaos broke out in Qin.

Qin Feng, who had disappeared in front of Ma Chao for several days, appeared in front of him with a smile that seemed extremely hateful and treacherous to Ma Chao. The peace agreement that was spread over the big case between the two parties seemed to Ma Chao, was like a knife poking his heart.

The war reparation was 10 million taels of silver. Five million taels of which were paid immediately, and the other five million taels were deducted by war horses. In the first year, 20,000 war horses must be provided to the Ming Dynasty.

This alone would make most of the treasury of Qin State empty. Li Zhi spent half his life savings for Qin State's treasury flowing to the treasury of Ming State.

War horses will make the Ming Dynasty strong and powerful. What did the Ming people always want Qingzhou County to do? They were not attracted by the wasteland horses in Qingzhou County. Although Qin State did not only produce wasteland horses, it was only this place adjacent to the Ming State.

One has changed and the other has risen. Ma Chao understood that after he signed this treaty, with the financial resources of Ming Kingdom, he would soon have a powerful cavalry that was enough to panic Qin Kingdom.

But he couldn't do it, and he was so angry that he could only take a look at the moment. If Ming Kingdom gets these benefits, he would turn his attention to Qi or Chu Kingdom on the other side. With the current development speed of Ming Kingdom, I think Qi Kingdom will be on the verge of pins and needles. Will Qi Kingdom, who suffered a loss this time, give up? Surely not. If the conflict between the two families can be made, Qin Kingdom will win precious time.

If it is possible, the situation of the Three Kingdoms' resistance to Qi will be the best ending for the current Qin State.

If this article is the naked exploitation of Qin by Ming, then another important clause would be even more hidden, or ordinary people would not understand the interests, but Ma Chao was deeply aware of his horror.

The Ming Dynasty was allowed to set up their so-called banks in various parts of Qin and allow the Ming Dynasty money to circulate freely within the Qin Dynasty. After this war, the Qin State suffered huge losses, and the national economy would definitely be worse than the war compensation. The rising currency was inevitable. In this way, the purchasing power of circulating currencies such as copper coins issued by Qin itself would definitely decline. As a victorious country, the Ming Dynasty, their currency invaded strongly, was afraid that it would not take long to successfully have a place in Qin State. The profits here would rob the wealth created by the Qin people without any hesitation. What's more terrible is that most people would not understand the truth. They would only know that they could buy more things with the same amount of money from Ming State.

Compared with the above two items, terms such as allowing both parties to trade freely is nothing.

The alliance under the city and a shameful agreement, but Ma Chao had to sign it.

He trembled his hands, picked up his pen, and signed his name with difficulty.

Qin Feng smiled proudly, grabbed the pen, and signed his name like a dragon and phoenix. Quan Yun, on the other hand, immediately took the seal of Ming Dynasty and covered it heavily.

"Your Highness, as long as the compensation and the first batch of war horses arrive, my army will retreat." Qin Feng said with a smile: "Of course, from the beginning of your signature, the war between our two sides will almost end. I am waiting for your good news."
