It has been a long time since Schulence had this kind of feeling that his heart suddenly stopped beating for a moment, even when he learned that Emperor Leman was going to attack his family, he was never so nervous. Speaking of which, the last time he was so nervous was after the first murder when he was young.
The Han Chinese leader who looked so young in front of him didn't know why he had such a daunting insight.
Xiulunsi raised his head and looked at Fang Jie.
He didn't want to ask how the other party saw it, or guessed it.
If you ask like this, you will immediately put him at a disadvantage.
"It is a terrible thing to have a wise enemy."
Xiulunsi came out from behind Kirkbo, and the two old men looked at each other. I thought this would be a very successful investigation, but now the situation has become so difficult. Lehman had done this before, and the other party didn't realize Lehman's identity. Hurons also wanted to do this once, in order to know his enemy most directly.
But now, if Fang Xie is willing, both he and Ke Kebo will die here, and this war will end early.
He walked up to Kirkbo and exchanged glances quickly. But from Kirkbo's eyes, he only saw despair and anger at his idea, so Xiulunsi was also a little angry. What made him angry was not Kirkbo's eyes, but his own arrogance.
"I don't want to say anything else, I want to know if we can get out of this camp alive."
Schulence asked directly.
He pretended to be calm and smiled: "If not, then there may be no need to continue the following conversation."
Fang Jie was a little curious, and asked with his chin propped up, "I just want to know why you made such a stupid decision? Although I know that a general who leads an army needs to have the most intuitive judgment on his enemy, but he entered so rashly. My big camp obviously doesn't match your age, and it doesn't match your current success."
Xiulunsi was silent for a while, and replied: "Maybe, it's your luck."
He looked around and there were no seats.
There is an old man in the seat, and he is an old man who has been pampered for many years. Standing for a long time seems to be a small pass for him. But from the conversation just now, he can tell how cold-hearted his enemy is, and he will never forget the fact that he is an enemy just because he is an old man.
"I just underestimated your powers of observation."
He said.
Fang Jie hummed: "But in my opinion, you want to say something to me."
"Yes."
Hurons couldn't deny Fang Jie's words: "At first, I wanted to prepare a fair negotiation and choose a place where there was no threat to you and me. But now it seems that I should think more about it later. How will you die?"
"Let's talk about it first."
Fang Jie said.
Schulence took a breath slowly, and sorted out the words in his mind: "I know, as invaders, people from the Opru Empire cannot be friends in your eyes, but the situation has changed a lot now. It has exceeded your and my previous expectations and judgments. I also know that you Han people are an unyielding nation, no matter how powerful the enemy is, you are not willing to lower your proud head easily. But, to use a sentence I just learned, now The current situation is... cooperation benefits both parties.”
He looked at Fang Jie, trying to make him feel his sincerity with his sincere eyes. But he failed because Fang Jie didn't seem to bother looking at him at all.
Schulence knew that at this time, what he needed most in his death situation was to impress his enemies.
So he didn't hide anything, and explained the predicament he was facing: "Now, it can be said that you and I have a common enemy, and that is the emperor of the Opru Empire. I don't think the emperor is sorry for me, because before that we Everyone gets what they need. It’s just that I have a son who doesn’t live up to expectations, but that’s enough to change my decision. Since we have common enemies, even if we can’t be friends, we can become people who don’t hurt each other.”
Xiulunsi said: "Although I am in your camp now, you have seen through my plan. However, as an old man, you usually want to retreat first, don't you? I have told my subordinates when I came, If I unfortunately die in your camp, then the soldiers holding the Black Morning Glory flag will fight to the death. I know that you have at least 600,000 troops under your command, and you have absolute initiative. But you You should also understand that if the 250,000 elite Black Morning Glory soldiers fight to the death, how much of your 600,000 army will be left?"
He continued: "So, I really like the phrase that cooperation benefits both. Let me talk about my conditions now... I will leave Eastern Xinjiang with my army, and I am willing to fight for what I am doing in this war. Make compensation for the mistake. Based on these two points, please order the encircled army to get out of the way. I will return to my principality with the army. Please don't doubt my words. My principality is far away from the mainland of the Opulu Empire. Man has no time to deal with me. With my ability, I can fully arm the Principality of Hurons while Leman is dealing with domestic affairs."
"This is my bargaining chip with Lehman in the future."
Fang Jie nodded after listening, "These are good things for you, what about mine? As I said just now, you didn't bring me any presents."
Xiulunsi was slightly startled: "Didn't I just say that fighting to the death is good for both of you and me?"
Fang Jie couldn't help laughing: "Since you didn't understand what I meant, let me tell you in another way... I will return what you just said to you intact. It is good for both parties not to fight, but What do you give in exchange?"
…
…
silence
There was a long silence.
Fang Xie didn't seem to mind that Hurons was speechless at this time. Now that the Black Banner Army is taking the absolute initiative, giving the other party a period of time to think about it is just a charity.
In fact, at the negotiating table, silence is often a means.
Hurons was waiting, waiting for Fang Xie to lose his composure.
There are many young people in Emperor Lehman's tent, and these young people are very talented. But the reason why people like Schulens and Kirkbo have been reused all the time, and Lehmann took action only after Schulens' son started to cross the line, is precisely because young people have a problem, but old people often don't.
I can't hold my breath.
At the negotiating table, when the other party offered conditions, the own side remained silent for a long time without saying a word. In fact, this in itself is putting pressure on the other party, forcing the other party to lower the conditions by themselves. But at this time, Schulence began to ignore the biggest problem, that is, he is not qualified to put pressure on the opponent.
Moreover, Fang Jie will not lose his temper.
Finally, Hurons couldn't take it anymore.
The pressure in his heart and the exhaustion of his body made him unbearable. It has been at least an hour, and standing for such a long time is not a good thing for him and Kirkbo. So he had to look to Kirkbo, for help. He walked up to Kirkbo and talked to Kirkbo in a very strange language, his voice was very low.
Andrew said softly beside Fang Jie: "This should be a very remote ethnic language, I don't understand it."
Fang Jie waved his hand to indicate that it was okay. He poured himself a cup of tea, then took out a book from behind him, opened it to the place he was reading before, and quickly immersed himself in it.
"If you don't pay, you will definitely not get anything in return."
Ke Kebo said almost annoyedly: "Are you still planning to rely on the prestige of the Opru Empire to intimidate your opponent? Don't forget that the prerequisite for your negotiation now is to betray your country. Without the empire behind you, you simply cannot There is no strength to negotiate fairly with the other party.”
"Pay? Pay for what?"
Schulence also said slightly angrily: "This guy is obviously ruthless, and the price I need to pay to impress him is probably too heavy for me to bear."
"Heavier than your life?"
Kirkbo asked.
Schulence was speechless.
Speaking of which, he hasn't appeared as a weakling at the negotiating table for too long. For a long time, the powerful strength of the Opru Empire has been his reliance on maintaining strength on any occasion. Suddenly he was turning his back on his country, and he hadn't even been able to convert himself.
"That's up to you to think about."
Kirkbo sneered: "Don't forget, I'm just your hostage."
Schulence glared at Kirkbo: "Do you blame me for being a hostage? That's Lehmann's business!"
"Now is not the time to bicker!"
Kirkbo almost roared these words in a low voice.
"All right."
Xiulunsi took a deep breath: "I tried my best to make as many concessions as possible, but you can also tell that this person may not want to continue the war. After all, it is not easy to defeat the 250,000 elite soldiers under my command. It's an easy task. You just came to Dongjiang, and you don't understand many things. First, although he has several times the strength of mine, he will not only face me alone, but he will also face To Lehman. Second, his enemies are not only us Opulu people, but also Mufu. This person did not come to Eastern Xinjiang simply to start a war with us. He wanted to fight us after the war with us. Even Dongjiang is included in his territory... So, like me, he needs to preserve his strength, and Mu Guangling is not a soft persimmon."
"what ever."
Ke Kebo simply ignored him and turned his head aside.
Schulence sighed, he knew that Kirkbo still resented him.
"My dear king."
Hurons walked up to Fang Jie, leaned slightly and saluted: "After discussing with my friend, I decided that we are willing to make a compromise. Now you can offer your terms, and I will see if I can accept them." .”
"Um."
Fang Jie's eyes were still fixed on the book, and he didn't even lift his eyelids: "You made the concession yourself. I'll see if I can meet my request."
This kind of contempt and disrespect almost made Hurons, who had been arrogant for decades, almost blown his lungs.
"I can give you information about Lyman."
Just now, Schulence found out the reason why he thought that Fang Xie must be tempted. Not only did he not need to pay anything, but it was also very important to Fang Xie.
"Dear king, you should know that Emperor Laiman has a very special ability. At the beginning, practitioners from the state of Chu tried to assassinate him countless times, but none of them succeeded, and no matter how powerful the assassins were, they were all killed in the end. Yes. It will take more than a god-slaying musketeer with a special weapon to do it."
Xiulunsi smiled: "Now, I plan to leave your camp."
"I need a fair and safe environment to say these things," he said.
Fang Jie still didn't look up, so the proud expression on Xiulunsi's face suddenly froze in embarrassment.
"Isn't that enough?"
Schulence asked.
Fang Jie turned a page of the book and replied in a very soft voice: "Even if you don't tell me, I can guess what's going on. There must be a meteorite on Lehman's body, right? This kind of meteorite can prevent him from being hurt by others." and the damage of the force of nature, and what practitioners borrow is the force of nature."
Xiulunsi's face changed suddenly.
"You trade me what I know, do you think it's enough?"
Fang Jie finally raised his head and glanced at Hurons, but his eyes were so calm. No emphasis, no underestimation, nothing. But this kind of plainness hurts the most.
"You...how could you know!"
Schulence said eagerly.
"Go ahead and think about it."
Fang Jie lowered his head and read the book: "I'm not in a hurry. Your team should have almost used up food and grass, and there is no ammunition supply... and my team does not lack these. I don't have to fight you in order to avoid losses in this battle. , I have a better choice... Surround and not fight. Although people are different, hunger knows no borders, and you Opuru people will starve to death. The most stupid thing you just told me is that Leman and you Therefore, I am sure of one more thing... Even if I surround you for a month, Leman will not come to rescue you, so... why am I in a hurry?"
