Chapter 154

Just when Tang Yin decided to raise troops to the south to aid Yancheng, the city-state of Besa suddenly sent envoys to negotiate peace.

This is very interesting, the peace between countries, Besa should go to the imperial court of Haotian, even if he doesn't go, he should discuss with the royal court of the Wind Country, but Besa didn't look for either, but came directly to Tang Yin, it can be seen that the city-state of Besa is not worried about the Haotian Empire, nor the Wind Country, but the plain county headed by Tang Yin.

The envoys of the city-state of Besa brought many gifts, and sent Tang Yin a letter written by the king of Besa, inviting him to go to the capital of the city-state of Besa, to discuss the peace talks between the two sides in person.

Tang Yin accepted all the letters and gifts brought by the envoys, and only said that he would consider them first and give a reply the next day, and then asked the envoys to go out and settle them in the hotel in Shunzhou.

After the envoy left, the hall of the county capital immediately exploded, and it was definitely a good thing that Besa took the initiative to come to negotiate peace, but inviting Tang Yin to Besa City was probably ill-intentioned, and many civil officials in the county dissuaded Tang Yin from accepting Besa's conditions no matter what.

Their dissuasion is exactly what Tang Yin wants, it's not that he doesn't dare to go, but he doesn't want to negotiate peace with the city-state of Besa at all, he used to be just the guard of a county, and he made the city-state of Besa unpeaceful, but now he is the head of the county, and his strength has increased several times, and then against the city-state of Besa, he doesn't even need the tactics of sneak attack and disturbance, but he can directly send troops to fight against it.

Listening to the civil officials' advice not to go, Tang Yin just pushed the boat down the river and nodded in response: "What you said is reasonable, it is better to be cautious in this matter." ”

Tang Yin has always been adventurous, when has he ever been cautious? Shangguan Yuanji frowned secretly and asked, "Don't you want to make peace with Besa?"

Secretly said smartly, Tang Yin looked up and smiled, and said: "Besa has a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, and Besa's goods are valuable, and Besa people can still be captured as slaves, if we negotiate peace, what will we rob in the future? Where will the money come from?"

"En!" Before the others could speak, Shangguan Yuan nodded his head first, echoed in a loud voice, and said to Tang Yin: "I think the adults should go to Besa City again, not to negotiate peace, but to call directly, I am willing to go with the adults." He always remembered that Tang Yin had attacked Besa City, and he had not done it himself.

Shangguan Yuanji glanced at Shangguan Yuanrang angrily, and said to Tang Yin: "My lord, don't! Since Besa took the initiative to sue for peace, we should seize this opportunity. Moreover, Besa is very strong, what if he raises troops to attack again? It really makes Besa anxious, what if he gathers all the forces of the Mephes Federation to attack us? I hope you will think twice!"

Tang Yin sneered, narrowed his eyes and said proudly: "If they really dare to come again, I will let them have no return, and by the way, I will retrieve King Besa's head!"

"En!" Shangguan Yuanrang began to nod again, he liked to hear this.

At this time, Qiu Zhen, who had never been speechless, suddenly spoke: "Didn't you forget which end of your center of gravity should you put on?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned, including Tang Yin. He asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Qiu Zhen said slowly: "The city-state of Besa is so big, even if the adults send troops and work hard, can they still annex the city-state of Besa? Can they annex all the Morphis Federation? If not, it is a big problem in the rear of the adults, and they have to send heavy troops to guard the border, and now Yancheng is in danger, and it may be captured by the Ning army at any time. If you want to fight the city-state of Besa, now is not a good time, what you need to do now is to stabilize one side and concentrate on dealing with the other side, with our current strength, it is far from enough to fight on two fronts. ”

His analysis was incisive, and everyone nodded their heads again and again.

Shangguan Yuanji continued: "Plundering Besa's property can indeed increase our financial revenue, but this can be achieved through normal trade after the two sides negotiate peace...... It's too short-sighted. ”

Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji were ruthless at all, and their words were very serious, and everyone couldn't help but be faintly worried about him, especially those civil officials, they were promoted by Shangguan Yuanji, and they didn't have much contact with Tang Yin, but they also knew that he was bloodthirsty, and Yu He broke the law, and he actually wiped out Yu He's entire clan, which shows how brutal it is.

Even Shangguan Yuanrang felt that the eldest brother was talking too much.

Sure enough, being buttoned up with a short-sighted big hat, Tang Yin's face suddenly sank, and his tiger eyes flashed with a terrifying light, glaring directly at Shangguan Yuanji.

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall immediately became dull, and people lowered their heads, not daring to look at Tang Yin, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.

I don't know how long it took, the light in Tang Yin's eyes disappeared, he took a deep breath, and then laughed angrily, he shook his head and muttered in a low voice: "TMD." ”

No one expected that Tang Yin would be able to laugh and scold a three-character scripture at this time, and when everyone was dumbfounded, Tang Yin asked, "Then what should I do?

"Accept the peace!" Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji replied in unison.

"Negotiating peace with the barbarian states can at least play a role in stabilizing the barbarian states and solving our worries, and now that the barbarian states are taking the initiative to seek peace, we can also put forward some preferential conditions for us and take the opportunity to earn benefits. Qiu Zhen said with a smile: "It's just that we don't know whether Besa's proposal is sincere or just to lure the adult into the bait." ”

Tang Yin nodded. There is indeed a murderous and cold-blooded side in his character, but there is also a tolerant side, being reprimanded by Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji in public, he is really angry in his heart, but after thinking about it, what the two of them said also makes sense, and it is rare for these two people to have the same caliber, which can only show that they are wrong.

Of course, it is precisely because they understand Tang Yin's personality that Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji dare to speak out.

He turned to look at Lotte and Ai Jia and asked, "What's the latest movement in the Barbarian Nation?"

Lotte shook his head and said, "There is no movement." It was unfavorable for the barbarian army to march into our county, and the army was disbanded after returning home, and there is no movement to re-recruit now. "The city-state of Besa had a system of universal military service, and when there was a war, all the people were soldiers, but when there was no war, the standing army was very small, and most of the soldiers were sent home.

The city-state of Besa was a country with relatively few resources, and agriculture was backward, so it was simply not able to support such a large army all year round.

Tang Yin said quietly: "From this point of view, it seems that the barbarian state has no idea of using troops against our county again. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

"Then this peace negotiation is also true?"

Lotte didn't dare to guarantee this, so he quickly shook his head and said, "My subordinates don't know." ”

"Haha!" Tang Yin looked up and smiled, and said, "Since you have been invited by others, how can there be any reason not to go? Anyway, it is not the first time that Besa City has gone, and it doesn't hurt to go again!"

"My lord!" Hearing that Tang Yin was going to the capital of Besa Country, Shangguan Yuanji said again: "This matter should also be considered in the long run, and it should not be easily involved. ”

"Hey?" Tang Yin waved his hand and said, "The barbarians are belligerent and martial, if I don't go, doesn't it mean that I am timid and afraid of the barbarians? ”

This time, Qiu Zhen agreed. It's not about taking risks in everything, taking risks is also about returns, negotiating peace with the barbarian state and succeeding will benefit you and do no harm, and Tang Yin is worth taking the risk. He replied, "I approve of your lordship!"

Shangguan Yuanrang immediately replied: "I am willing to go with the adults." ”

Tang Yin laughed, leaned over and said, "With Yuan Rang to accompany me, even if the barbarians have bad intentions, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

The corners of Shangguan Yuanji's mouth moved, and he finally swallowed back the words of persuasion, feeling that it was indeed safe to have a second brother to protect Tang Yin, and he was not afraid of any crooked ideas from Besa.

The next day, Tang Yin summoned the envoys of the city-state of Besa and decided to accept the invitation and was willing to go to the city of Besa to negotiate peace.

The envoy of the city-state of Besa was overjoyed, and after setting a date with Tang Yin, he went away happily.

Hearing that Tang Yin was going to Besa City again, Fan Min found Tang Yin as soon as possible, looked at him with worried and complaining eyes, and said quietly: "Brother Tang, didn't you say that you won't fight with the barbarians again in the near future? Why do you want to go to the barbarian capital again?"

Tang Yin smiled, gently supported her shoulder, and said: "This time I went not to fight, but to negotiate peace, and when the peace is reached, we and the barbarian state will really stop the truce!"

"Are the barbarians sincere in discussing peace?" will it be ......" Fan Min was worried, for fear that Tang Yin would not return.

"Hmph!" Tang Yin snorted, his eyes gradually became deeper, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he said with an evil smile: "If the barbarians really negotiate peace, it is fine, if they deliberately trick me into Besa City, then it is not certain whether the sheep will enter the tiger's mouth or the wolf will enter the sheep." ”

I don't know what he looks like on the battlefield, but the murderous aura that naturally exudes when he speaks makes Fan Min shiver.

Feeling her body tremble, Tang Yin's murderous aura suddenly lost, he took off the outer qi with his hand, draped it on Fan Min's body, frowned and reprimanded: "It's very cold now, don't wear more clothes, no one will care about you if you are infected with the wind and cold." ”

Fan Min grabbed Tang Yin's big and approached his arms. Although he was scolding himself, Fan Min's heart was sweet. Tang Yin is not a person who can speak sweet words, but that doesn't mean he is inconsiderate.

"Can I come with you?" Fan Min raised his head and asked in a low voice.

Tang Yin said: "Forget it this time, if you have a chance to go to Besa City next time, I will take you again." ”

Fan Min's question was just a temptation, and when she heard this, her eyes dimmed, and she said, "You also said that you are not going to war, if you don't fight, why can't you take me?"

Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, then hugged her and said half-jokingly: "If I don't take you there, it may be calm, take you there, if you don't get it, you will really fight!"

Fan Min was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

Tang Yin smiled and said: "In case the king of Besa sees you and falls in love with you and asks me for you, what do you say I should do? If I don't give you out, the two sides will fall out, won't they fight?"

After hearing this, Fan Min's face turned red, and he buried his face in Tang Yin's arms shyly, but he flew up with joy. Tang Yin's joke also alleviated Fan Min's worries a lot.
