His voice was flat, but it was loud and sound, with a touch of natural majesty.

When Gern heard this, he hurriedly said: "General Xiao has misunderstood, if this battle continues, there will undoubtedly be a loss for both sides." ”

"Huh!?" Xiao Yuan's expression turned cold: "What the envoy means, is it that my Qin army is afraid of war!" ”

"No, no, no." Gwen shook his hand again and again, for fear of angering Xiao Yuan: "What I mean below is that the truce is beneficial to both your and my armies, and it is also the best result." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yuancai's expression softened, and then he said lukewarmly: "Then the messenger let's talk about it." ”

Seeing this, Gern's heart finally fell when he mentioned his throat, he first stabilized his mind, and then said: "That's the case, what does my king mean, as long as the general is willing to withdraw from the army, from now on, I Xijon will never commit it again, and I am willing to be friendly with the general forever." ”

"It's that simple?" Xiao Yuan was almost laughed at angrily.

"That'...... What does that mean by the general? Gunn asked tentatively.

"What a joke!" Xiao Yuan sneered: "Listening to what the envoy said, don't you really think that my Qin army is afraid of Xirong!" If you want to fight, you will fight! Such peace is insincere! ”

"This, this, general, I am sincere, why do you say this." Guern was a little anxious.

"I'll ask you! This battle, whether you want to fight Xijon! ”

"That's ......," Gwen replied at a loss.

Xiao Yuan continued: "Since you Xirong want to invade my Qin land and start a war, now, if you can't win the war, you don't want to fight?" Have you asked me about the soldiers of the Qin army? ”

"That'...... What the hell does the general mean? Gunn's face grew even more anxious.

"If this battle is to be stopped, you can, but you must follow the three conditions of this official."

"Where, which three?"

Xiao Yuan said directly: "First, it is the invasion war launched by your side, and Xirong must pay the due price for this war and make a certain amount of post-war compensation." ”

This point, in fact, has been discussed in Xijon as early as in China, and Xijon also knows that there will be such a matter, and the reason why Gern did not mention it before is to maximize the interests.

Now that Xiao Yuan brought it up, it was also expected by him, so he didn't say much, but asked, "What about the second one?" ”

"Second, during the period of the Taishou, Xirong occupied the twelve cities of Qindi for two years, and all the gold and silver looted in these twelve cities, as well as all kinds of losses, must be repaid!" Xiao Yuan said directly.

"This, General Xiao ......"

Gwen wanted to say something, but Xiao Yuan didn't give him a chance, and said again: "Third, from now on, north of Qingshan, within a hundred miles, Xirong is not allowed to go south to herd horses, otherwise, it will be regarded as a war provocation!" ”

After he finished speaking, Guerna was in a hurry: "This! General Xiao, these conditions are too much! ”

As he spoke, he continued: "The matter of post-war compensation, these can be discussed, but we have already conceded the twelve cities, if we attach conditions, it will be difficult for the strong!" ”

"Hehe, did you let you let the Twelve Cities?" Xiao Yuan smiled and said unceremoniously: "That's what my Qin army soldiers fought bloodily and fought back!" ”

"In addition, post-war compensation, the official also considered it just now, Xirong must pay 10,000 war horses, 1,000 cattle and sheep, this condition is not too much."

What is the most valuable thing in Xirong, of course, is the war horse!

Their war horses, tall and fat, galloped up and galloped, which were different from the war horses of the Central Plains, and were more suitable for cavalry combat.

Xirong is a foreign race in Fanbang, the land is small and sparsely populated, they don't have any silk and silk at all, if they are asked to pay a huge amount of gold and silver, it is estimated that they will not be able to take it out, it is better to have war horses, more real, because Xiao Yuan is now lacking cavalry, and during the war, it is very difficult to buy horses in the Central Plains.

After listening to what he said, Gwen hurriedly said: "Post-war compensation, the conditions offered by General Xiao are acceptable to our side, but the matter of the twelve cities is ......."

"All the gold and silver looted by Xijon must be repaid in full, and there is no need to negotiate." Xiao Yuan interrupted him.

"This, this, General Xiao!" Gern's face was already flushed, and even his tone changed a little.

Xiao Yuan glanced at him, and said in a cold voice: "The envoy doesn't need to say much, if you don't agree, then please go back, go back and tell King Xirong, see you on the battlefield!" ”

After speaking, he immediately gestured to Shangguan Wenruo: "Send off guests." ”

"Yes." Shangguan Wenruo answered, got up and was about to stretch out his hand to make an invitation, in fact, these conditions were discussed by him and Xiao Yuan in advance.

But Xijon only wants to make peace now, and he can't fight at all, where can Gwen not be in a hurry when he sees this, he hurriedly says: "Wait!" Wait, I don't have the right to agree to these conditions now, I hope General Xiao can wait a few days and let me return to my king. ”

"That's it......" Xiao Yuan was not in a hurry, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, this official will wait for you here for a few days." ”

Ay! Guern sighed secretly, he had no choice, as a messenger of peace, saying that it was peace, but it was better than surrendering.

Before he saw Xiao Yuan, he had already thought that this trip might not be easy, but now that they have really met, Xiao Yuan's strength also makes him feel great pressure.

At the negotiation table, it is always the powerful side that has the right to speak, not to mention the victory or defeat of the war.

After saying goodbye to Xiao Yuan with great anxiety, Geen didn't stop for a moment, and rushed back to China without stopping.

When he returned, and saw the king of Sijon, and told him of the results of his trip, the latter was furious when he heard this, and could not help glaring and said:

"He Xiao Yuan, this is too much deception! I really thought that this king was afraid of him! ”

"Oh king, rest the wrath, rest the wrath." Guern persuaded again and again: "Now that Xiao Yuan has won the war, it is inevitable that the lion will open his mouth, and my country can no longer fight." ”

"Humph!" Hearing him say this, King Xirong was angry and said: "These three conditions, the first one, this king can accept, but the other two, each by one, is all difficult, Xiao Yuan is completely contemptuous of this king in the posture of the victor of the war!" ”

When he said this, Gwen swallowed his saliva, not knowing how to answer, but in fact, Xiao Yuan did win.

It wasn't until a long time later, when he saw that King Xirong's anger had subsided, that he said tentatively: "Wang, although Xiao Yuan has made harsh conditions for the matter of the Twelve Cities, it is not up to us to decide how much compensation we will give him, and how can he know how much gold and silver we have looted." ”

"Shhh...... Makes sense. Hearing this, King Xijon couldn't help but take a light breath, and then asked, "In your opinion, how much gold and silver should be compensated?" ”

"One hundred thousand taels of gold, one million taels of silver, if Xiao Yuan disagrees, you can do it again." Guern said directly.

In fact, Xirong's previous raids on the twelve cities, not to mention these, this is also the reason why they had to break through Xiping Pass later, because they tasted the sweetness.
