Chapter Eighty-Nine: Peace Talks

Slowly, the leader of the Southern Expedition walked up the stairs step by step, and came to the door of a huge hall.

The wooden table was filled with huge clay cups, which were steaming hot, and streams of fragrance wafted out of it, and on both sides of it were stout chairs, about twenty or so.

The inside of the gate was full of people, and when the leader of the Southern Expedition saw that there were about fifteen or sixteen, he knew that these were probably the high-level of the Fire Tribe.

Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, it seems that the other party also wants peace and doesn't want to continue the war.

After the two sides greeted each other, they took their seats, went straight to the topic without any nonsense, and began to negotiate.

"Emissary of the Tooth Tribe, we just had a great war, and now you have suddenly begun to call for peace between the two sides, and you have also said that you want to establish diplomatic relations with us.

How do you make us believe you in this situation? Who knows if this is your delaying ploy? Will you wait for your strength to recover a little before you come to attack us? ”

"This Lord of the Fire Tribe, listen to me, this time our Tooth Tribe did come with a desire for peace.

As the leader of the Southern Expedition of the Tooth Tribe, I have now come to the Fire Tribe in person to deal with the affairs of peace and diplomatic relations between the two sides, isn't this sincerity enough?"

"Then tell me, why didn't you declare war last time, and then led a large group of troops to attack my Fire Tribe, and even more wildly, you actually want to directly conquer our great Fire Tribe, shouldn't you give us an explanation?"

"If you want to explain, well, I'll give you an explanation. Just because of the tribes we conquered earlier, they all said that your Fire Tribe has a lot of good things, and they are all needed by our Tooth Tribe, and their strength is not very strong.

It can be decided in a battle, this is the reason why I will directly send troops to attack you, for the weak, the strong can attack without any reason. That's the explanation I gave, I don't know if you're not satisfied. ”

"Hehe, since that's the case, we don't need any reason to be attacked if we are weak. Then now that you have come to negotiate peace with us again, does it mean that your strength is no longer able to catch up with our fire tribe, and you are afraid that we will attack you?"

"We want to have peace talks, and that's because in the last battle, your excellent performance, with a big victory, confirmed to us your strength.

You are now qualified and strong, you can talk to our Tooth tribe on an equal footing, but this does not mean that we are weaker than you, as can be seen from my name, my last more than 30,000 troops, that is only the southern expeditionary army of our Tooth tribe, we have other armies.

And my southern expeditionary army is not only the weakest one among them, but also because there are some small tribes here, and a newly formed partial division.

After I retreated, after discussing with the high-level leaders of our tribe, I felt that it was very uneconomical to continue to fight with you, and the final benefits I got were very cost-effective compared to the pay, so I came to your Fire Tribe on behalf of our Tooth Tribe to resolve this misunderstanding and divide the power territories of both sides."

"Oh, has the world become like this now? If you are weak, you will be beaten, and it will become a matter of course to be beaten. ”

"This is the real situation now, and you can also understand it this way, weak strength is fault. Now the way of the world has changed, the previous set is no longer good, only those with equal strength can be friends, and the other weak are the nourishment for the development and growth of their own tribe. ”

For a moment, the entire conference room of the Fire Tribe fell silent, everyone was thinking about this question, the world had really changed.

A few days later, the leader of the Southern Expedition left, taking with him the only thirty or so warriors who had been captured.

The release of more than 30 warriors captured at the beginning was also to express the sincerity of the Fire Tribe's side. And Su Ming and the others also figured out from the leader of the Southern Expedition that the strange actions of these warriors at the beginning, it turned out that they had all eaten strange fruits.

One is a white kiwi fruit, which allows people to have a short night vision, and the other is a pitch-black fruit, which can be completely invisible in the environment after eating, and can move freely without being noticed.

Ignoring the interference of special energy, the place of light is full of delicacy! Su Ming suddenly thought of a sentence on the plant encyclopedia about the introduction of the street lamp tree. It seems that the miraculous plant named the street lamp tree is not so simple now.

Of course, after understanding the situation, in the face of the fact that the leader of the Southern Expedition was found out, Su Ming and they could only fool around, but in private, they took the matter of the street lamp tree to heart, and they had to cultivate some well, so that they were not afraid of the enemy's stealth sneak attack.

This negotiation has also achieved very good results, and the territorial boundaries of the two sides have been preliminarily demarcated, although it is very long and rough, and it is only an approximate range.

Roughly speaking, the longitudinal range of the territory is bounded by the large river that goes northeast, the left side of the river belongs to the territory of the Fire Tribe, and the right side of the river is divided into the Tooth Tribe.

The horizontal division is bounded by the small mountain range of the logistics camp of the Southern Expeditionary Army. To the south of the mountain range is the territory of the Fire Tribe, and a large area of land north of the mountain range belongs to the Tooth Tribe.

It also stipulates that neither side is allowed to enter each other's territory without reason. Of course, the emissaries of communication and the trading teams of both sides are excluded.

With the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two sides and the demarcation of the border between the two sides, it seems that peace has arrived! But everyone knows that as long as whoever is the first to show his weak side, the other side will definitely attack.

One side needs great smelting skills, the other side needs a lot of manpower, peace is so beautiful, but it is so fragile that it can be shattered at the touch of a button.

But now the two tribes have been reconciled for the time being, at least for a brief period of real peace.

The external situation revealed by the other party also prompted the high-level leaders of the Fire Tribe to decide to send their own team of envoys on a long trip to understand the situation in the surrounding area.

The era of chaos has come, and they cannot be locked up in this small corner, they must get out. At the very least, you need to know the main things that are happening around your tribe.

Due to the war, there have been no caravans to trade with the Fire Tribe for a long time. The contact with the outside world can be said to be in a closed state. And they are still in the most remote corners of civilization.

A few days after the leader of the Southern Expedition left, the Fire Tribe, who had already set up a plan to travel far away, formed a team to prepare for the long journey.

This time, Su Ming personally led the team, and a total of two hundred tribal warriors accompanied the team, so that the entire exchange team had enough ability to protect themselves.

To the north, where the Fire Tribe is based, is an endless plain, to the west, they have already explored once, and they have reached a forest, where there is no civilization and a barren land, and to the east, there are many large and small tribes, which are the thriving land of civilization.

Therefore, the long-distance route that Su Ming and the others chose this time was to travel east along the river.

And the first communication tribe on the way, they chose the current water tribe (clan), which is a tribe that is friendly with the fire tribe, and is a big tribe that talks about rules, and is still trustworthy.

In the past, the territory of the Water Tribe was occupied by the Tooth Tribe after they migrated, but according to the new territorial division now, it is now divided into the territory of the Fire Tribe.
