Chapter 1345 Mao State Sends Troops

Ma Tianfang waved his hand and said: "Okay, I admit that I have always planned to attack the country of Mao, and now is indeed a good time to attack the country of Mao. As for sharing the pressure with our allies, our country of Wu has no shirking responsibility. But

However, I am now short of money and the treasury is empty. Even if I want to conquer the country of Mao, I can't do it. Why don't you ask your emperor to wait a little longer? When I have collected the military funds, I will send troops to attack the country of Mao as soon as possible.

reduce the pressure on the country.”

Dong Pingan was furious when he saw Ma Tianfang's greedy face. But no one had to bow his head under the eaves. Ma Tianfang could afford it now, but Nanchen Kingdom couldn't afford it, so he

He had to hold back this breath and pretended to be nonchalant and said: "As the saying goes, the opportunity will never come again. If your Majesty misses this great opportunity, once the Mao army returns home, your Majesty will never have such a good opportunity again."

Ma Tianfang pretended to be heartbroken and said: "To be honest, I also know that this is an excellent opportunity, and I am also anxious. But the emperor has many hungry soldiers and no military pay, so I can only do nothing."

Dong Ping'an saw that Ma Tianfang could not see the rabbit or the hawk, so he could only take the initiative to say: "Before the foreign minister came, His Majesty the Emperor of our country told the foreign minister that as long as your Majesty sends troops to the country of Mao, our Nanchen Kingdom is willing to provide you with 20 million

Gold’s military spending.”

Ma Tianfang pretended to raise his fingers, calculated, shook his head and said, "No, Prime Minister Dong, our army's military expenditure gap is far more than 20 million gold."

Dong Ping'an took a strong breath and said: "How much does your Majesty think is reasonable? Please give the foreign minister a specific number, so that the foreign minister can ask His Majesty the Emperor of our country for instructions."

Ma Tianfang pondered for a while and said: "Sending out the army is no small matter. It affects the whole body, and military expenditure is the top priority. I don't know how much military expenditure is needed for a while. Well, I will go to the Ministry of War now.

Help the bastard do some calculations. In short, we must ensure that the military expenses for this troop dispatch are sufficient, and we must not take a penny more from our allies. We are here for today, and Prime Minister Dong, please take a good rest, and we will continue talking tomorrow morning."

After saying that, he left without waiting for Dong Ping'an's reaction.

The next morning, Ma Tianfang summoned Dong Pingan again and said straight to the point: "The guys from the Ministry of War worked overtime last night and calculated that the military expenditure required for this attack on the country of Mao is 200 million gold."

Dong Ping'an was obviously irritated by Ma Tianfang's big mouth, and stood up and said: "This is impossible. The main responsibility of the foreign minister in Nanchen Kingdom is to raise and allocate military expenses for His Majesty the Emperor of Nanchen Kingdom. With the current situation of Mao Kingdom

Given the strength, His Majesty only needs to dispatch four million troops at most to defeat the Mao Kingdom in a short period of time, and the military expenditure required will not exceed 100 million gold."

Ma Tianfang smiled and said: "Since Prime Minister Dong is also an expert, this account can be easily settled. According to what Prime Minister Dong said, our army dispatched four million troops and took two years to completely defeat the country of Mao. Let's do the calculation.

Looking at this account, the average military pay of our officers and soldiers is one gold per month, four million people is four million gold, one year is 48 million gold, two years is ninety-six million gold. Again.

Adding in the food and grass, the elixirs used to assist combat, the consumption of weapons and equipment, and the consumption of spiritual stones, all these things are added together, and 200 million gold is actually far from enough."

Dong Ping'an cursed in his heart, this old thing is so ridiculous. Among the twelve countries in the elixir world, even the richest country Wei, the average military pay of its army officers and soldiers is less than one gold. Averaged across countries, the military pay of officers and soldiers is at most

It doesn’t exceed fifty silver dollars per month. With the economic level of Wu Kingdom, it’s not bad for each soldier to receive twenty silver dollars per month. You actually gave me five times the salary. Can you still order some?

Face.

PS: The elixir world uses gold, silver and copper as its main currency, 1 gold = 100 silver = 10,000 copper.

Of course, Dong Ping'an could only say these words in his heart. After all, he was asking for help now. He could only say patiently: "Your Majesty just said that the country of Mao was captured in two years, and the foreign ministers really disagree.

The country of Mao is now extremely weak in military strength. As long as your Majesty fights resolutely enough, it will not be a problem to capture the country of Mao within a year. Based on this calculation, the military expenditure of 100 million gold will be enough for your majesty to send troops to the country of Mao. One more thing, this time

The attack on the Mao Kingdom is not just to reduce the pressure on our Nanchen Kingdom, but more importantly, to open up territory for Your Majesty and establish unparalleled achievements. Therefore, it is really unreasonable for our Nanchen Kingdom to bear all the military expenses. In order to show our country's

Sincerely, we are willing to increase the military expenditure for your country to 30 million gold. I don’t know what your Majesty thinks.”

Ma Tianzhao said carelessly: "It's really not that good. The country of Mao is not a soft persimmon. Even if its troops are empty now, the foundation is still there after all. As long as my army takes action, the country of Mao will either recruit troops on a large scale in the country or provide support.

The soldiers of Chen State were transferred back. It is too difficult to completely defeat Mao State within one year. The most optimistic estimate is that it will take a year and a half. The minimum military expenditure consumed is about 150 million gold. The three Prime Minister Dong
