The central part of Huanguo, Zhenyang Front.

With the defeat of the Huan army and the retreat all the way, now the counties on the right side of the Huan country have long fallen, I don't know how many women have been arrested and imprisoned, and how many people have been enslaved by the ghost clan.

On the Zhenyang side, under the order of King Huan Wang before, Xiang Ge led 100,000 troops, which was the place to retreat.

During this time, the ghost king led the main force and was about to launch a strong attack on Zhenyang, so the camp was not very far from Zhenyang.

Ghost Army Camp.

A row of Central Plains men, with their hands tied behind their backs, were kneeling on the ground.

"Slash! (Oni)"

With a command, the scimitars swung in unison, and a row of heads fell to the ground.

More than a dozen men from the Central Plains were tied to wooden stakes, their heads hung down, their heads scattered, covered in blood.

Dozens of steps away on the opposite side, there stood a row of ghost soldiers, all carrying spears, making a throwing posture.

"Ready! (Oni)"

"Vote! (Oni)"

An officer shouted an order, and the ghost army raised their arms in unison, and spears flew out, instantly piercing the bodies of those men.

Blood, spilled all over the ground.

This is clearly training recruits.

This scene, bloody and cruel, happens countless times every day.

Outside, in the main tent with the Central Plains man as a live target, the minister Guo Kai is asking for peace with the ghost king.

For the arrival of Huan's envoy, the ghost king seemed very happy, at least on the surface, it was more polite.

This also made Guo Kai's hanging heart fall slightly.

Inside the tent, the ghost king lives in the main seat, and there is an interpreter standing respectfully beside him.

Guo Kai was dressed in an official uniform, sitting next to him, nodding his head and smiling.

He is the minister of Huan State, but in front of foreign races, he is so groveling, it can be said that he has lost face.

When the matter came to the critical point, the ghost king also subconsciously asked, "Does King Huan really have the sincerity to negotiate peace?" ”

He spoke the ghost language, Guo Kai couldn't understand it, and couldn't help but look at the translator with a puzzled look, and the latter explained it as it was.

After hearing this, Guo Kai hurriedly smiled and said: "Of course, of course, my king is not willing to fight with your army anymore, and the casualties will only increase, and the sincerity of the peace negotiation is beyond doubt." ”

The ghost king said: "Since this is the case, then we are also very willing to make a friend of Huanguo, but to make friends, both sides need to show enough sincerity, I mean, you had better let Zhenyang out, we will also stop the army, the two sides live in peace, work together, govern these places, and then work together." ”

"This ......" Guo Kai showed an embarrassed expression.

In fact, before the envoy, he had already discussed with King Huan, and also deduced that the ghost clan might want Zhenyang, and King Huan gave him the rights, including cutting the land.

And the messenger can represent these things in the first place, but he can pretend to be more or less in front of him.

Seeing this, the ghost king was not in a hurry, but smiled, took a cup and said: "Don't worry, envoy, this matter can be considered, come, let's have a drink first, your wine in the Central Plains is much stronger than ours." ”

"Hehe, Your Majesty, please ......" Guo Kai also hurriedly took a cup to please.

After drinking, they talked a few more words, and the final result of this matter was naturally Guo Kai's reluctant agreement, and the reason why this was so was that he was afraid that the ghost king would ask for more.

Seeing that he responded, the ghost king was Dayue, and immediately asked people to present maps and pen and ink.

Soon, the map was spread out flatly.

Guo Kai held a brush in his hand, beside the ghost king, looked at the map in front of him, subconsciously swallowed saliva, and then began to twist and twist, and gave the entire Zhenyang County to the ghost clan.

The ghost king watched from the side, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he couldn't help but ask: "Lord Guo, you can represent King Huan on this trip, right?" ”

The official translated it, and Guo Kai said: "Of course, please rest assured that Your Majesty is this." ”

"That's good, that's good." The Ghost King nodded again and again, then stretched out his hand and said, "Then please sign and seal Lord Guo." ”

"Oh, yes, yes......"

Guo Kai responded, and his hands also began to move, he didn't even have any psychological pressure on cutting the land to other races, and even felt that he had done a good deed.

And his pen is not only a cession of the country, but also a gift to the entire Zhenyang people to the ghost clan.

After he finished doing this, the ghost king hurriedly confirmed it carefully, and then smiled, looked at Guo Kai with a smile: "The whole friend of Huan Kingdom, we have made a deal, Lord Guo, please rest assured, for friends, we have always been heart-to-heart, but at the same time, we also hope that Zhenyang's army can be evacuated immediately, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings." ”

"This is nature, this is nature, we will order the army to retreat." Guo Kailian agreed.

"Haha! Good! The ghost king couldn't help but smile on his back, and said, "Lord Guo, don't rush back first, here today, this king wants to entertain well, please." ”

"Ah, Your Majesty is gracious, please ......"

Guo Kai had a smiling expression.

On behalf of King Huan, he signed a treaty with the Ghost King to cut the land and sue for peace, and the news has not yet flowed out, and he doesn't even know about it in the army, let alone the people of Zhenyang.

It wasn't until two days later that a supreme order from the Huan State court reached Xiang Ge.

This letter, with its simple content, directly ordered Xiang Ge to lead the army to withdraw from Zhenyang, and at the end, it was stamped with the seal of King Huan.

After the agreement is reached, the land has been ceded, and Zhenyang is the ghost army, and the royal court will naturally ask for the withdrawal of the army.

At this time, most of the generals of the Huan army were there, and seeing that Xiang Ge had read the royal order, some people couldn't help but ask: "Xiang Shuai, I don't know what the king's will is, has the imperial court formulated a relevant strategy, or does it want to increase troops to support Zhenyang?" ”

"Nope." Xiang Ge raised his head, looked around and said, "The king ordered my department to withdraw from Zhenyang." ”

"What!?"

When they heard this, they were astonished.

"Now the ghost army is about to storm Zhenyang, if our army retreats at this time, wouldn't it be to give it up!"

"Yes! Is the imperial court mistaken, although our army has only 100,000 troops, if we fight to the death, it is enough to hold Zhenyang! ”

"Zhenyang is a heavy place, almost the key point in the belly of our country, if our army withdraws, the ghost army will definitely take advantage of the situation to occupy the whole county, and at that time, hundreds of thousands of people will be slaughtered!"

"This order to retreat really puzzles me!"

Everyone was gossiping, and there was a little bit of fire in their hearts.

Seeing this, Xiang Ge took a deep breath and said, "This is the king's order!" Dare to disobey! Tell the ministries to evacuate the front-line troops quickly! ”

"But Xiang Shuai ......"

The general wanted to say something, but Xiang Ge had already interrupted him and said: "This is the king's will, soldiers, to obey orders as their duty!" ”

With one sentence, he directly blocked the partial general, and also blocked everyone.

And in his heart, he actually doesn't want to fight with the ghost army anymore.
