Chapter 374: Negotiation

Highly recommended:

The next morning, as soon as the fiery sun had risen, the Crimean valley was awakened by a dull sound of horns, but strangely enough, when the barbarian army had completed its assembly in front of the valley, it did not attack immediately, and a dozen wolf horsemen with white flags tied to their weapons rushed into the valley like a gust of wind. @乐@ζ–‡@

"My lord, the messenger sent by the barbarians has asked to meet you and say that he wants to convey an important message from their leader, do you want to see you?"

In Spartacus's command tent, Lear was standing in front of a huge map of the march pondering something, while Casa behind him cautiously reported.

"Let them in. ”

Lear left the map and returned to the throne, he didn't mind what Tanan was up to, time was on his side anyway.

..................

"You say, Tanan wants to see me?"

Lear looked at the messenger under his seat for a long time, and Tanan's request was simply unexpected, asking him to meet at the mouth of the valley at noon, and saying that during the meeting the barbarian army would retreat five miles, and that Tanan himself would come with only one attendant.

In the messenger's message, the latter even swore in the name of the Ancestor that he would ensure the safety of Lear's trip, and that he would return to the valley safely, regardless of the outcome of the meeting.

"Yes, my lord, the leader is fully prepared to meet with you, and I beg you to be present at noon. ”

The messenger gave Lear the most solemn courtesy of a barbarian, and when he came, Tanan had solemnly explained that he must not neglect the courtesy, so he was very careful when he spoke.

"Interesting, did Tanan say he wanted to talk to me about something?"

Lear leaned against the bookcase in front of him with his hands on his forehead, and to this day he didn't feel that he had anything to talk about with Tanan, but the latter's sincerity now made him a little suspicious.

"What is there to talk about, either you come in, or we will kill it, and get some Laoshzi Mo is not trying to lure my family to go to the valley mouth and then set up an ambush and assassination, saying that you only take one person to retreat five miles, don't you leaders know that my family is a mage, and they are all close to their faces, and they are not for you to knead!"

Before the messenger could reply, suddenly a thunderous voice sounded from the seat next to him, and it was Tariq who stepped on the general's case with angry eyes, and he was afraid that he already felt that what he said was the truth.

"The general is angry, the leader has no such intention, he just wants to meet your lord, you are also a barbarian, and you don't want to see your compatriots fighting with your army, right?"

The messenger was also one of the warriors who followed Vir into the valley yesterday, and he had naturally seen Tariq's bravery, but when he saw that the misunderstanding suddenly arose, he hurriedly explained, while secretly checking Lear's reaction from the corner of his eye.

If the latter thinks the same way as Tariq, then his trip can be said to have been a complete failure.

"You sit down first. ”

Seeing that Tariq was still about to attack Lear waved his hand helplessly, of course he knew the former's loyalty, but there was no need to question the extent of a tendon, and he hadn't decided to see or not see it now, so if Tariq continued to stir up the matter, there was no way to talk about it.

"What else could Tanan ask for?"

He looked at the messenger again, and if he didn't believe that Tanan just wanted to see him, there must have been something wrong that caused Tanan to rush to make this meeting happen, and even to suspend the war, so it must have been something he had not thought of before.

"The leader said, if you agree to meet, then please bring General Haag with you when the time comes, and the leader has a few words to say to him. ”

The messenger carefully worded his words as little as possible to make his words sound less urgent, because before leaving, Tanan had personally explained that this request must be mentioned casually, so as not to arouse the other party's disgust.

"Oh?"

Lear smiled meaningfully, and it became clear that the incident was related to Haag, or that the latter was carrying some important secret, or something else, that made Tanan and Jag give up their purpose of killing him and make peace with him.

What is the secret that is more important than the two generations of ancestors of the barbarians?

"Go back first, and tell Tanan to take noon as the boundary, and if I don't show up by then, it means that I refuse this meeting. ”

Lear waved his hand faintly at the door, and immediately a dozen guards appeared in front of the barbarian messenger and made a gesture of invitation to them, not even giving them a chance to speak.

The big-eared monsters gave Lear a helpless look, but finally let out a sigh, and then walked out stupidly.

"You all go back, Haag stays. ”

Lear got up from his seat after the envoy left, but he didn't mean to discuss with everyone, and the rest of the people left the command post one after another after the order was given, and Ivo glared at Hag fiercely as he left, although Hag had explained the ins and outs of the matter after he returned, but it was obvious that the wood elves were still a little unrelieved.

"Tell me what happened to you that Tanan didn't even kill me. ”

When Haag and himself were the only ones left in the command post, Lear sat down again.

To be honest, although he has a certain understanding of the combat level of the barbarians, and can tell what kind of strength the captains under his command have reached, he doesn't know much about things like bloodlines, and he has always thought that Haag's madness may be a little more violent and advanced than ordinary barbarians, but he didn't think too much about the deeper meaning.

It's just a casual chat, because he doesn't want to put too much pressure on Hag, not to mention that no matter what kind of secret Hag has, it's a good thing for him, as for handing Hag over in exchange for peace, he didn't have to think about it, he originally took the initiative to come to Tanan to fight, how could he stop fighting for this reason.

Whether it was an envoy or a meeting, it was all wishful thinking on Tanan's part, and the only effect of the other party's doing so was to arouse his interest in getting to know Haag better.

"Boss, I didn't think about hiding it from you, I just haven't figured out what to say yet..."

Hag hesitated, but judging by his expression, he clearly knew what the power of the Ancestors meant, but he was only halfway through his sentence when Lear laughed and interrupted him.

"As usual, this is not an interrogation, I don't mind whatever secrets you have, and it won't be more or bigger than me anyway. ”

Lear shrugged his shoulders, but his gesture made Hag completely relaxed, and then he smiled innocently.

"Actually, I didn't know I had this kind of power before I escaped from Sand City, I might have been a little stronger than others before that, and I didn't think much about anything else, all the changes started from the dungeon of Sand City, Mr. Ronis gave me a box......"

By the time Hag had explained everything that had happened, the sun had already passed over the highest ridge and sprinkled the earth with violent heat, and it was less than half an hour before Tanan's noon appointment.

"So, you opened Pandora's box, and the power in the box not only greatly increased your level strength, but also awakened the ancestral bloodline, and under the premise that you could become the fourth generation ancestor of the barbarians, Tanan even gave up the war, only thinking about how to get you back. ”

Lear summed it up in a few words.

"I don't know what the box is, but Mr. Ronis seems to have said the name Pandora, and I won't go back, sir, this is my home. ”

Haag said earnestly.

"Hahaha, you don't need to say it, I'm here, and if you still want to go back, then I can only break your leg. ”

Lear laughed and stood up, and Haag scratched the back of his head at the words.

"But in that case, we can talk to our barbarian friends. ”

After learning Tanan's exact purpose, Lear already had a plan in his mind, and he didn't have to kill Tanan, all of which stemmed from the alliance between the other party and Sandru.

Now that Tanan's relationship with Sandru has broken down and the situation has shifted in his favor, war is not the only option.

"What do you say?"

He turned to the darkness behind him.

"Then go ahead. ”

A female voice full of magnetic seduction answers.
