Chapter 141: Second Negotiation
The first battle was won, and although the elite members of the enemy army were released, the overall strength of the enemy army was weakened by at least ninety percent.
At this time, to compare the quality of the elite members...... Yu Chang turned his head, looked at the necromancer and necromancer, and smiled smugly.
"Then, it's time to take advantage of the victory and go to a second negotiation. Yu Zhang said lightly.
"Young master, you are taking advantage of the fire to rob. The necromancer smiled and said.
"Please come with me. Yu Zhang's wings spread out behind him, flew into the sky, and swept into the distance.
In addition, a rickety gray-clothed old man and a tall samurai also floated into the sky and disappeared.
The three of them flew in the direction of the enemy's retreat, and came to a grove covered with military tents.
At this time, the enemy sentries had already seen the three people in the sky and hurried to ventilate the news.
In the general's tent, a sentry stumbled in and reported:
"General, there are three floating intruders outside, a hunchbacked old man, a burly samurai, and a red-winged birdman!"
When General Zhang heard this, he immediately stood up from his seat, slapped the armrest with his big hand, and ordered loudly:
"Tell all the Spirits to assemble outside the woods!
The sentry went down to give orders, and General Zhang went alone to deal with it.
The spiritual power in his body surged, and he slowly floated into the sky, staring at the three people in the sky from afar.
He slowly approached the three of them, always maintaining a safe distance.
Seeing him coming, Yu Zhang stepped forward alone for a distance, first casting a kind smile.
He saw that there was a hole in the chest of the enemy general's battle robe, and it seemed that he had retreated too hastily, and the battle had been defeated miserably, and he had not had the leisure to change into a decent set of clothes.
Yu Zhang saw that General Zhang looked nervous, and persuaded him: "The general doesn't need to be nervous, I came this time only to negotiate orally." β
General Zhang deliberately adjusted his panicked mentality, and pretended to be full of anger and said: "Negotiations? Are they unreasonable demands that cannot be realized?"
He would not forget the ridiculous demands made by the other side during the last negotiation, not only to make them withdraw their troops, but also to give up the three cities.
Yu Zhang was still smiling, and his tone was kind: "The general is really smart, yes, my requirements for this negotiation are still those." β
"Three cities and a promise of never violation. β
"But these demands are not unreasonable, because you have already lost this war, and my demands are just small trophies. β
"For the sake of the lives of the rest of yours, I suggest that you make a decision as soon as possible whether or not to agree to our conditions, General. β
The general was faintly angry, but he didn't dare to speak.
Yu Zhang continued: "Give you a night to think about it, and tomorrow at dawn, it will be the moment when we receive the answer. β
"If you want to escape with people overnight, you can also take people to escape, and the army of the undead waiting outside will not leave a hand. β
"If you want to call for help, it's okay, I want to see if it's our way of extermination, or if the reinforcements from the Qingxia Dynasty come faster. β
"And even if they come, what can they do in the face of the endless army of the undead?"
"I hope you think about it carefully, general, and don't take the lives of these hundreds of heroes below. β
At this point in the negotiations, all the remaining combat forces of the enemy have gathered here, and they are eyeing from below.
"Well, have a good night, and I'll see you tomorrow morning, General. β
Yu Zhang deliberately dragged out the words "General", and after speaking, he turned around and flew away, and the two strong men with a terrifying aura in the rear also left.
After they left, General Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, facing the terrifying coercion deliberately exuded by the rickety old man and the tall warrior, he felt that it was a little difficult to breathe.
General Zhang slowly landed on the ground and yelled at the hundreds of people gathered here, "Have a meeting!"
In the general's account, the long table of the conference was full of strong people at the spirit general and above, and in the position closest to the general, there were the city lords of the three cities in the east and the three cities in the west, as well as the great butler Jin and the two black-robed people.
The general's face was very ugly, and he took the lead in saying: "The main defeat in this battle is the lack of intelligence. Didn't you say that the enemy only had a few thousand troops? Why did a top-level powerhouse suddenly appear who could summon countless dead armies?"
"Hmm, what do you say, Steward Kim, are you hiding something from us?!"
His tone was full of blame, and the spearhead was directed at the great butler Jin.
Everyone in the audience turned their eyes to Steward Jin, waiting to hear his explanation.
Steward Jin stopped talking, and after a long time, he whispered: "General! When the Jin family was still in charge of Gaochuan City, the main force in Gaochuan City was the Jin family's army, which was only 3,000 people. β
"And most of these 3,000 men were lost on the day of the usurpation. The current Gaochuan City, even if the strength of all the families is combined, is no more than five or six thousand. β
After hearing his words, the general was furious, slammed the table in anger, and roared: "Have you seen the other side's human army in the war?"
"I'm asking about the hunchbacked old man and the swarthy sword-wielding samurai!!"
The general's actions startled everyone at the table, and Steward Jin was even more frightened, his voice trembled, and he explained:
"I don't know... I haven't seen the old man and the samuraiβ" He looked aggrieved.
"Tell me everything you know!" The general was furious and smashed the table in front of him.
Two days before the usurpation date, I and the city lords of Yongjuan City and Luhua City were still participating in the Spirit Fighting Tournament in Gaochuan City, everything was normal at that time, and something must have happened later that caused the tragedy of your Jin family. β
Black Rock City Lord Ning Jian said in a deep voice.
This time, he not only skimmed himself cleanly, but also stomped on Steward Jin by the way.
Only then did Steward Jin recall that everyone who united to fight the enemy here did not forget the old hatred of the past.
When the Jin family was booming, Gaochuan City was the overlord of the four cities in the west, monopolizing the position of overlord for hundreds of years, and the other three cities had to be subordinated to others for so long.
Hearing this, the city lords of Yongjuan City and Luhua City also echoed one after another, saying that what Ning Jian said was true.
Under the pressure of many people, especially the fierce Scarface General, Steward Jin was so frightened that his heart collapsed, and he vomited out the facts in a panic.
On the day of the usurpation, the birdman still had the same posture, but he also summoned purple-black clouds of doom from the sky, and out of the clouds, real monsters descended. β
"A huge black fog. β
"That black mist has never killed people from beginning to end, and I can't see its strength. All I know is that when I look at its body, it's like I'm looking into an endless abyss, capable of devouring everything. β
When he said this, his expression was suddenly and frightened, as if the horror scene at that time was still fresh in his memory and vivid.
"There was also an old man who could also float in the air, and the old man was like a ray of light, his whole body was translucent, and he seemed to have no substance. β
"He didn't make a move, he just handed the birdman a page of paper, that birdman was only the strength of a spirit general at that time, but he took that piece of paper and actually defeated our spirit king-level city lord..."
"You all know what happened next, and that's why we started this war..."
He didn't mention the fact that the Jin family was kicked out of Gaochuan City, which seemed extremely difficult for him to talk about.
"I really don't know anything about the rest! I don't know, the birdman called an old man again today, and summoned a large army of dead men..."
After listening to this, General Zhang finally understood that this golden steward had hidden such important information and did not report it!
Someone next to him suddenly discussed:
"This Jin steward concealed it and did not report it, making it clear that he was afraid that we would know the specific situation, so he would postpone sending troops or not sending troops, and his purpose was to use our troops to avenge his Jin family, and his heart can be described as ah!"
When the general heard this, his face became more and more ugly, and he shouted: "Drag him out for me and behead him according to military law!"
