Section 63 Negotiations with Bahamir (I)
Early in the morning, Lao Luo received a report from the sentry, and someone sent an invitation, with the signature on it being Zhang Nuo Zhang Longze of the Zhang family, who was the Zhang Wulang who was once treated coldly by Lao Luo.
Lao Luo only glanced at it and understood that in the end, the Zhang family was still sticking to their ridiculous principles and continuing to hook up with the Georgians, it must have been Bahamir who found the Zhang family as the arbiter, and they would not and did not dare to come to their camp to negotiate.
But it's nothing, in the face of strength, wisdom and people's hearts, their plans will not be a problem. But cheer up, as the saying goes, be careful to sail a ship of ten thousand years, although the people of this era have limited vision, it does not mean that they are fools. Lao Luo secretly admonished himself.
Since the other party invited him to negotiate in the city, there is naturally no reason not to go, otherwise wouldn't it mean that he has lost his courage? What's more, Lao Luo is not a robber, on the contrary, he is the one who catches the robber, and morality is like this. However, whether the power of morality can work on this land is still two theories, and whether the power to grasp morality is strong is the fundamental.
At about ten o'clock in the morning, Lao Luo rushed to the Tang Dynasty camp city, accompanied by Helton, a flexible and flexible guy, as well as the two black gods of Naga and Mnaqi, as for the number of people, there is no need, taking Helton is for negotiation, and taking Naga and Mnaqi is to show their authority, to put it bluntly, to support the field and prevent the other party's dog from jumping off the wall in a hurry.
However, even if the worst situation is that he is besieged by the Zhang family and Bahamir, it is a big deal for Lao Luo to let go of his scruples, then what awaits the other party is the disaster of extermination.
Out of the camp, naturally there are servants waiting for the Zhang family to lead the way, the flow of people in the Tang camp is the same, at least there is no change because of the Georgians, but there are many people on the side of the road looking at Naga and Mnachi and Lao Luo stopped to pay attention, maybe it was the tall appearance of the three people who attracted them, maybe they knew that this was a warrior from the camp outside the city.
The location of the negotiation is in the direction of the Tang camp, it is a hotel opened by the Zhang family, not far from the old house of the Zhang family, Lao Luo has passed here under the leadership of Li Ji when he has nothing to do, it is estimated that after the construction of the city wall in this small city, several people are majoring in different areas, so the street here is different from the open side of the Li family, but it seems a little cramped, the road is only enough for two carriages in parallel, and the wall next to it is towering, maybe this area is a little influenced by the Zhang family, There is a taste of reading people who are precipitously arrogant.
Naturally, there was no one to greet him outside the hotel, although the Duchy of Tao-Klarzhety was only a principality, but it was also a principality after all, Bahamir was the uncle of the Grand Duke, and obviously would not come to greet a guy who "kidnapped" his son, and the Zhang family, with Lao Luo Leng treating Zhang Nuo first, naturally did not have any enthusiastic attitude.
The reception lobby of the hotel is actually used as a restaurant, there are not many guests, this time is the time to go out to run errands or rest, the decoration inside is a mixed style of East and West, the wooden beam structure of the East and the wall decoration of the West are combined, Lao Luo is not in the mood to appreciate the layout here, led by the Zhang family, Lao Luo took his own people and drove straight in, an independent small oriental courtyard, should be where Bahamir lived, a few Georgians standing at the door stopped them, The leader said in a commanding tone: "All those who want to come in must lay down their blades!" ”
Lao Luo was a little stunned, he didn't expect the Georgians to be so fierce, but his reaction was also very quick, he tilted his head, and asked the Zhang family who led the way around him, "This is the road you want to lead?" What are these things? ”
The name of the Zhang family who led the way was Zhang Fengchuan, which was a side line of the Zhang family, and he had a sad face at this time, "General Luo, this is none of my business, although they (referring to the Georgians) are guests, I can't control them." ”
"Hmph," Lao Luo didn't say much, this is just the Zhang family's faceless use of the Georgians to humiliate themselves, "It's okay, since the Georgians have no sincerity to negotiate, I will kill all the robbers when I go back." ”
Lao Luo's words were spoken in Latin, although the tone was rather strange, but the Georgians guarding the door obviously understood, and the guy who took the lead immediately became anxious, shouting, "Fence them up, don't let them go." ”
The Georgians use their own national language, of course Lao Luo doesn't understand, but sometimes you don't need to understand, as long as you look at it, you can understand, he made a gesture to Naga and Mnachi, and then quickly rushed forward, and his right leg kicked directly on the side ribs of a guy who tried to pull out the scimitar, and the guy who was kicked fell backwards with a few clicks, and knocked down the person behind him with a screaming body, and even was scratched in the back by the scimitar of his companion, and the person who was knocked down by him had no chance to scream, Because they were smashed, their mandibles were crushed with a scabbard by Mnaki, who rushed from the side.
On the other side, Naga is even more fierce, the short stabbing hammer in his left hand smashed the opponent's blade with his backhand, and took away half of the opponent's neck, and grabbed one of the legs of the half-dead guy with his right hand, turning him up the whole way, that is to say, Naga has a short weapon in his left hand, and the body of the Georgian guard who is half dead in his right hand has become a long weapon, and it is also a "heavy weapon". This "heavy weapon" that was still twitching had half a barbed armor on its upper body, and when it was picked up by Nakara, it instantly smashed everyone around him away. This is still because the gesture given by Lao Luo is to knock everyone down, otherwise this black guy will pull out another short barb hammer and smash the heads of all enemies,
Of course, Lao Luo was not idle, when he rushed forward, he took advantage of his height and long legs to directly and quickly kick down all the people around him, and then he wanted to dodge the attack range of this bastard in Naga, and every time it was bloody, this guy couldn't hold back by inertia as long as he played it.
Twenty seconds, well, maybe thirty seconds, anyway, Helton and Alki, who didn't see the gesture clearly behind Lao Luo, couldn't intervene at all. It's not that the Georgians are too weak, but because in addition to their slow reactions, but also because the three people who shot are too strong, Lao Luo, a killing machine, needless to say, the two black-skinned guys are lion hunters from the steppe.
"Naga, you bastard!" Lao Luo stood on the side of the door of the small mansion and shouted, and more than a dozen Georgians all fell to the ground, and none of them could stand up.
"Boss, this... This..."Naga stuck a short stabbing hammer in his back, and then threw the "heavy weapon" he was holding on to the ground, rubbing his hands unnaturally twice, the head of the "heavy weapon" was about to fall off, and both arms were twisted abnormally, obviously this guy who was still majestic dozens of seconds ago was already in tatters like a discarded rag doll.
Helton and Olki also stood on the ground in some surprise, they knew that the two black guys were the first to follow their masters, and they usually had times of fighting, but they really didn't find that these two guys were so surprised when they let go of their combat power. As for Zhang Fengchuan, the person who led the way, he was already sitting on the ground in fright, and the sound of "vomiting" kept coming out of his throat, because the head of the "heavy weapon" thrown on the ground by Naga was right in front of his eyes.
"Let's go to the front lobby, Zhang Fengchuan, tell you the person in charge of the Zhang family, and think about who he is." Lao Luo's first order was obviously to his men, "Helton, tell his master that I will only wait in the lobby for a quarter of an hour, and when it is too late we will go back to the camp and kill all the robbers." ”
Helton stepped forward and kicked a guy who had fallen to the ground, because it seemed that this guy was the only one who still had the strength to speak, "Call your master out and want to attack us, if it weren't for the master's hand, you should all see God." Tell your host that it's only a quarter of an hour, go to the front lobby, and wait for the body to be collected when it's late! ”
The guy lying on the ground apparently understood what Helton meant, and he slowly stood up with bared teeth, walked to the door, knocked on it quite regularly, and then shouted as if with all his strength, "Otofel, open the door!" I'm going to die! The guests asked the host to come out! It's late, and the little master is going to die! ”
Lao Luo and the others turned around and went back to the hotel lobby directly when Helton spoke, and they couldn't put their own people surrounded by enemies, the so-called arbiter, the Zhang family's ass was crooked.
The Georgians who were left to wait outside the door of the small mansion were originally Bahamir's pathstones, that is, they were used to test the attitude of the negotiators, but he didn't expect that seventeen guys who usually boasted of being elite would be put down in less than sixty figures, and on the premise that the other party didn't want to kill, the other party only dispatched three people!
When did such powerful warriors appear in Transcaucasia? And there's more than one! The other party asked him to participate in the negotiation by name, and the time limit was also set, and he had nothing to do. It is impossible to ask for help from the Tang camp, because the leader of the other party is the Tang people, although the Zhang family has given some help, but the Zhang family itself is a "scholar", that is, a scholar, let the scholar deal with the warriors with high combat power? That's a joke. Grab the leader of the other side to negotiate? Not to mention whether the combat power can be achieved, but the news leaked, his son Samtz didn't want to live.
Helpless, Bahamir had no choice but to curse his youngest son in his heart while going to the hotel lobby under the leadership of the Zhang family.
Zhang Nuo, as the contact person of the Zhang family, was also very helpless, originally surprised that the Georgians' combat power was good, but he didn't expect that in just a few dozen minutes, he was all cleaned up by the military man surnamed Luo. It is said that a gentleman cherishes my body, but why is it so troublesome when it is my turn? It's all that damn military man, with such vulgar people, no wonder the Tang Dynasty declined in the past.
The so-called swearing and slander of Lao Luo could not be heard, he waited in the lobby of the Zhangjia Hotel with Mnaqi, Olki, Helton, and Naga with blood on his body, and the surrounding guys and perhaps the owner of the store were walking around, and the extra guests took advantage of the situation to avoid it, and the only few bold guests were far away. It's not that they're timid, it's really Lao Luo's people, except for Helton's slightly shorter and thinner height, even Olki is a strong man with a height of 1.85 meters, and it is more than enough to deter these ordinary people with their momentum.
Obtained from the long-term training of later generations, Lao Luo's grasp of the time is very accurate, about the thirteenth minute of waiting, Zhang Nuo, dressed in Confucian clothes, walked into the lobby with more than a dozen Georgians, and Zhang Nuo walked together is a short, short, short-skinned Georgian, who is short and should be similar to Helton's height, dressed very gorgeously, with golden decorative threads everywhere, with the cross of the Orthodox Church of Constantine hanging on his body, bloomers with high boots and a gorgeous and complicated coat, This guy is supposed to be Samtz's father, Bahamir, the uncle of Bagrat III.
Since both sides have met, there is nothing to be polite, Zhang Nuo introduced the two separately, Bahamir's title is Gongqing, and Lao Luo's title is naturally introduced as a general. According to the custom of this era, the two parties greeted each other according to the etiquette of their own ethnic group, that is, the Georgian chest stroking ceremony, and the Tang people clasped their hands into fists as a salute.
Put together the tables and chairs in the lobby, make something similar to the negotiation table of the later generations, the two parties sit opposite each other, this scene is a bit funny, the people on both sides are a bit similar to the underworld negotiations in the later generations, but everyone's clothing is not the black striped suit of the later generations. Even so, due to Lao Luo's height, he naturally has a domineering attitude when he sits there, and the relatively short and fat Bahamir Gongqing is very much like a pampered businessman.
Without any polite words, Bahamir ended his courtesy and went straight to the point, "Your Excellency, General, when will my son be released?" ”
"Your Excellency Gong Qing, it is up to you, when the ransom is paid, when your son will naturally be able to go home." Lao Luo felt like he was acting out a diplomat's play, but it was the custom of the times, and even the two sides of the battle were likely to sit and drink together.
"Ben Gongqing will definitely pay the full ransom, as long as you let my son go." Bahamir's expression was still a little arrogant, which could be felt by the two Czech mustaches on his lips.
"It seems that His Excellency Gong Qing is not sincere in redeeming your son, so today's negotiations are meaningless." Old Rohoran stood up, "Naga, Mnachi, Alki, Helton, let's go back!" ”
