The furious Shang Chaozong took out the sword that was slung on his horse's back and seemed to be unable to control his emotions.
The enraged generals also took up weapons one after another. As long as Shang Chaozong gave the order, they would kill him!
Seeing this situation, Tao Yanfeng took Shang Shuqing's clothes by the hand and pretended to tear them off completely, threatening!
Unable to move, Shang Shuqing closed her eyes.
Seeing the unimaginable consequences of being impulsive, Guan Fangyi's heart was in her throat. Shang Shuqing had stayed in Maolu Villa for so long and she had a good relationship with her. She didn't want anything to happen to Shang Shuqing.
Niu Youdao suddenly shouted: "Stop it!" He stretched out his hand and pressed Shang Chaozong's wrist, suppressing the knife that Shang Chaozong was about to raise.
Hearing Niu Youdao's voice, Shang Shuqing opened her eyes again and looked at him with tears in her eyes.
Niu Youdao said loudly to the enemy: "I hate fighting and killing. If there is anything to discuss, there is no need to use knives or guns."
Some people on the other side got very angry after hearing this. Who started this fight and killing? How many people have been killed with knives and guns, and you still have the nerve to say this
However, we are all not three-year-olds, and Zhao Guo does not want to cut off hope. After all, this is the last way. As long as Niu Youdao can settle this matter, Zhao Guo can even ignore the past things. Investigated.
Zuo Chengfeng, the head of Luoxia Villa, said: "Niu Youdao, no need to discuss, you withdraw your troops, we release them, it's that simple!"
Niu Youdao: "I can promise you to withdraw your troops!"
As soon as these words came out, people from the three major sects and Yu Cang all suddenly looked around, and some even had murderous intent in their eyes.
Withdraw troops? Meng Shanming and others also looked back at Niu Youdao, and Shang Chaozong said tangledly: "Master Dao..."
Niu Youdao raised his hand and stopped what he said next.
The people in Zhao State were refreshed. Many people knew Niu Youdao's influence on the Yan army. If Niu Youdao could agree, this would be a good idea!
Zuo Chengfeng said loudly: "Okay! Kuaishou! The conditions remain unchanged. When the Yan army withdraws to the territory of Yan State, the hostages will be returned without any damage. There will never be any damage!"
Mi Man, the leader of the Juxian Sect, also said loudly: "As long as the Yan army withdraws, we can give you another guarantee. The grudges between you, Niu Youdao, and our Zhao State will be wiped out. We, the Zhao State, promise not to pursue it again and will never pursue it again." Break your promise! Everyone present can see it and bear witness together!"
He represented the entire Zhao Kingdom without any discussion. Zuo Chengfeng and Jiang Wanlou were stunned for a moment.
However, they all realized later that relying on hostages to coerce the other party to withdraw their troops is a dead horse and a doctor with a try mentality is not very reliable. Now Niu Youdao has finally let go. This is to increase the benefits in order to encourage Niu Youdao to make up his mind.
"Yes, I can guarantee it at Luoxia Villa!" Zuo Chengfeng responded loudly.
"I will never break my promise when I return to Yuanzong. If I violate this oath, I will be punished by heaven and earth!" Jiang Wanlou also gave a guarantee.
The guarantees given by the leaders of the three major factions of Zhao State in full view of the public are still somewhat credible.
Long Xiu and others looked at the other side, then at Niu Youdao, and they all looked on with cold eyes as if it had nothing to do with them.
Niu Youdao: "Why are you in a hurry? There is no rush in this matter. I told you that we can discuss anything."
The other party was extremely enthusiastic, and the heads of the three major sects gave out a lot of guarantees. Who would have expected that Niu Youdao suddenly said such a harmless sentence, which immediately made the other party choke. Feeling like he was being tricked, Zuo Chengfeng said angrily: "What do you mean?"
Niu Youdao: "Guess what you mean! Don't you think it would be a bit ridiculous for me to agree to such a big thing by myself? This is not something I can decide on my own. I have to discuss it with everyone. In this way, give it to me How about we discuss it in one day and give you an answer at this time tomorrow?"
The leaders of the three major sects of the Zhao Kingdom were a little hesitant, but what the other party said was not unreasonable. After all, the three major sects of the Yan Kingdom were not decorations. It's a little too outrageous.
The leaders of the three major sects of the Zhao Kingdom met and murmured for a while before making their choice. Zuo Chengfeng said: "Okay! I'll give you one day and we'll see you at this time tomorrow!"
Niu Youdao: "It's a deal! But I don't want to see anything wrong with the princess and the young prince."
Zuo Chengfeng: "It's easy to say! But Niu Youdao, I'm warning you, it's best not to play any tricks. During this period, the Yan army had better not act rashly, otherwise I can't guarantee that the following soldiers will do something rude to the princess." Things come up."
Niu Youdao raised his hand expressionlessly, pointed at Tao Yanfeng, and asked, "Who are you?"
Tao Yanfeng was startled when he was asked. He felt that the other party seemed to want to settle accounts with him. He felt a little uneasy in his heart. However, as the strongest force in the entire Zhao country, he had nothing to be afraid of. He raised his chest and raised his head and said: "I... "
"Forget it!" Niu Youdao interrupted, "It doesn't matter who you are. Don't dirty my ears. Why don't you take your paws away?"
Tao Yanfeng was a little angry at being humiliated in public, but it was not him who made the decision. He looked back and saw Jiang Wanlou nodded slightly and loosened his hand holding Shang Shuqing's clothes on her chest.
"Everyone, listen carefully. If I have any good news at this time tomorrow..." Niu Youdao once again raised his hand and pointed at Tao Yanfeng, and said indifferently: "I will chop off the paw of the princess if it touches her." The prerequisite is the dog’s paws, I want them, otherwise there is no need to discuss anything else!”
As soon as these words came out, Tao Yanfeng's face suddenly changed, and his spine felt chilly. It was related to the life and death of the three major sects of the Zhao State, and the great cause of the entire Zhao State. If the matter really came to that point, let alone chopping off his hand, it would probably cost his life. None of it is a problem.
I just follow orders and don't want to run into this kind of people and get into this kind of trouble, not to mention how miserable I feel.
Generals and soldiers of the Yan army, you look at me and I look at you, and you feel relieved.
Especially the soldiers of Nanzhou were very happy, feeling that the Taoist Master was worthy of being the Taoist Master of Nanzhou. He had just suffered a loss and wanted to get the situation back immediately!
Little did he know that for Niu Youdao, it was not just about venting his anger. He was worried that someone would mess with Shang Shuqing during this period. A bunch of old men in the army could be seen as beauties, and sows could be seen as beauties. He didn't want anyone to stop doing anything. It only made Shang Shuqing suffer, so he was shocked!
Zhao Guo did not expect that Niu Youdao would put forward such a condition. As the leader, master, and commander, Jiang Wanlou immediately said, "This is impossible!"
"If we don't see his dog paws by then, it will be the time when the army launches a full-scale attack. I will do what I say! As for whether it is possible or not, you can make up your own mind, I won't force you! Let's go." Niu Youdao dropped the dial He turned his mount and evacuated expressionlessly under the gaze of everyone.
Guan Fangyi was the first to turn his mount to follow, and the dignitaries in the front row also turned around one after another.
The people in front retreated first, while the army behind them stood guard and retreated slowly.
Watching the withdrawal of the Yan army, everyone in the Zhao state had different expressions, and it seemed that the scene just now seemed a bit difficult to let go.
But for them, the fact that two hostages can have such an effect and make the enemy suspend their fighting and be willing to continue talking is beyond their expectations...
Returning to the Yan Army camp, a group of people entered the spacious Chinese Army tent, which was also the largest tent in the temporary camp.
As soon as they stood still, Long Xiu asked Niu Youdao: "Do you want to withdraw your troops?"
The atmosphere in the tent suddenly became solemn, Niu You said: "Whether we withdraw our troops or not, I don't care. It still depends on the wishes of the three leaders."
Long Xiu said casually, "Didn't you have a good conversation with them?"
Niu Youdao: "It's just delaying time. I want to ask you if you have any good ideas. You can't let the other party kill the princess and the young prince in front of everyone, right?"
"I don't have any good ideas!" Long Xiu turned around and asked, "What about you?"
Everyone was silent, or shook their heads slightly.
"It seems there is no good solution." Long Xiu turned back and asked Niu Youdao, "Do you have any solution?"
Niu Youdao's sword that was stuck on one side moved to the front of his belly. He put his hands on the hilt of the sword and shook his head.
Long Xiu glanced at his sword-wielding hand, wondering where he had this bad habit, and said slowly: "Since there is no good way, I want to know what your plan is?"
Niu Youdao cupped his hands and said, "It all depends on the three masters. I will obey your orders!"
This attitude satisfied Long Xiu, Yu Cang and others, but Long Xiu still faced Shang Chaozong, "My lord, the princess is your sister and the child is your son. In the final analysis, it depends on your attitude. I think I know your attitude!”
Everyone looked at Shang Chaozong, but Niu Youdao lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes.
Shang Chaozong's cheeks tightened, "I have said that I will not let the blood of my brothers be shed in vain because of my sister and son. Victory is in sight, and I do not agree to withdraw the troops!"
"Okay!" Long Xiu nodded with satisfaction and looked around everyone, "Your Majesty is the commander-in-chief of the army. He has the final say on how to fight, and we have to execute it! Brother Meng, Brother Gong, and Brother Yucang, what do you think?"
Meng Xuan nodded and said: "That's right!"
Gong Lince nodded slightly.
Yu Cang said: "Of course we will cooperate."
"Since everyone has no objections, let's let it be settled." Long Xiu said and extended his hand to Yu Cang to invite, "Brother Yu Cang, it's a rare meeting, please!"
Yu Cang felt a little wary about walking too close to this group of people. He glanced at Niu Youdao subconsciously. Seeing that he didn't respond, he responded: "Please!"
Long Xiu gave Meng Xuan and Gong Lince a look, and they left together.
Not far out of the tent, Long Xiu waved to his disciples and said, "Give me the order and keep an eye on all the troops. If any general acts rashly, capture him immediately!"
"Yes!" The disciple took the order and left.
Long Xiu turned around and smiled at Yu Cang: "Brother Yu Cang, I guess you don't want to see someone do bad things, right?"
Yu Cang smiled perfunctorily, agreeing in his heart but not saying much.
In the Chinese army tent, after there were no outsiders, Niu Youdao walked to a map and stared at it, wondering about something.
After waiting for a while, Meng Shanming couldn't bear it any longer. He rolled forward in his wheelchair and said anxiously: "Master Tao, do you have any good ideas?"
Let others risk saving lives? There are some things that are difficult for Shang Chaozong to say, and can only be told by others.
Niu Youdao asked back: "What happened at the time of the incident? Has the news about Lan Ruoting not come yet?"
As soon as these words came out, Meng Shanming knew that he had not given up yet. His previous words were to deal with Long Xiu and the others, and he immediately said: "Not yet. It should take some time to understand the details. It should be soon!"
Niu Youdao: "Time is urgent, don't delay, tell me as soon as you have news."
Meng Shanming said, "Okay!"
Niu Youdao pointed to the map in front of him, "The terrain trend on this map looks like a nearby terrain map."
Meng Shanming: "Yes, the latest map surveyed from the air by manned birds shows the approximate deployment of enemy forces."
Niu Youdao: "It won't affect you if I borrow it, right?"
Meng Shanming: "Master Dao, you can take it, but it can't be just one picture. There is a backup here."
