Chapter 555: Negotiation Fails

The weather changes as it says.

Yesterday it was still a warm sun, but today it is a north wind howling.

Early in the morning, I saw that in the Dragon City, the north wind like a knife, with a chill that caught people off guard, was scurrying around in the city.

On the streets, pedestrians shrank their heads and walked in a hurry. Even the bare branches of the tree seemed to be a little unbearable, with a sharp whistling sound, shivering in the wind.

In the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, Xi Yingzhuo stood in the middle, squinting at Shen Feng, who was sitting on the main seat, and said with a disdainful expression: "The emperor of the Mengyue Empire has already given the Dragon City to my Wuyun Kingdom, this is a matter known to the whole world, what is the reason for such a forcible occupation?"

Shen Feng smiled slightly, looked at Xi Yingzhuo, and muttered: "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, and regardless of the rights and wrongs in between, I just want to know, what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is your own meaning, or does it represent the entire Cloudless Country?"

Xi Yingzhuo was stunned for a moment, and an unnatural look flashed away, and then said, "Is there a difference?"

"Hahahaha......" Shen Feng leaned back in his chair and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, this difference is too big." If it is the meaning of the entire Cloud Country, then we don't need to say more, you bully other cities, I Shen can't control it, but dare to bully the people of Longcheng who see me, hmph! We will never agree! If we really have the ability, we can directly send troops to fight, whether it is life or death, I Shen will follow! If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself wills, then the purpose of His Highness's words, you might as well say it directly!"

"It's really ridiculous! Send troops over directly? Do you think that seeing the current situation in Dragon City, you are really the opponent of my Cloud Country? Do you really think that my Cloud Country has no way to meet Dragon City?"

Shen Feng looked at Xi Yingzhuo's eyes proudly: "There is no way in the Cloud Country, I Shen don't know, and I don't want to know, but I see Longcheng and I Shen someone!"

"You ......"

Xi Yingzhuo was choked by Shen Feng and was a little speechless. The originally planned threat didn't seem to be useful at all at this point.

If you really want to fight to the death, judging from Shen Feng's resolute expression and past performance, you can indeed do it.

But can the Cloudless Kingdom do this? Obviously not! The reason why the attack on Jianlong City in the first place was to get more profits to replenish the empty treasury. But if you really want to fight the whole empire for this city, then ...... Let's wash and sleep!

"Hmph! If you don't change this mentality of being reckless, you will always be just a reckless man without a brain, even if you forcibly occupy Jianlong City now, it will definitely not last long!"

As soon as he heard this, Shen Feng knew that this was Xi Yingzhuo's own idea, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"What kind of person Shen is, or how long Long City can last, these things don't need His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to worry about. What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has to do is to complete your mission this time. If you blindly add your own conjectures, even if you are not a reckless man, then you are not far from making your own clever assertions. ”

"Humph!"

Xi Yingzhuo snorted coldly, then arched his hand upwards and said, "Your Majesty remembers that you have good intentions, so it has been decided that in addition to paying the treasures according to your book, the income of Jianlong City must be distributed at a rate of 190% every year. At the same time, in order to prevent you from guarding and stealing yourself, the official positions of all departments in Dragon City must be supervised by someone from my Wuyun Country. As long as we can do this, our Majesty will be very open and agree that you, Shen Feng, will be the city lord temporarily!"

"You actually want a hundred percent of the income of the entire Dragon City?"

"That's too much, isn't it?"

"No, this must not be promised!"

"Only to the death!"

"In that case, what power do we have to deal with affairs in Dragon City?"

"That's right, what are you kidding, putting your cloudless kingdom's eyeliner around us openly?"

"Aren't we puppets, then?"

"What are you kidding?"

"Lord of the city, where is there anything to talk about?"

"Fight! Who wants to see Dragon City, why don't you come and try it?"

"If you want to swallow the dragon city, you have to have a good tooth, don't break your teeth when the time comes!"

......

Before Shen Feng could speak, the people sitting around protested one after another.

"No! you're wrong!"

Listening to the chaotic discussions, Xi Yingzhuo sneered: "Ninety percent is ninety percent of our Cloud Country, and you can only get one percent when you see Dragon City!"

"Huh?"

"Ichisei?"

"You're funny, aren't you?"

"Are you really the prince?"

"I'll go, you're funny!"

......

When everyone gradually quieted down, they all looked at Xi Yingzhuo with a look of surprise, trying to carefully distinguish whether he was sick or not. Shen Feng had a cold face, and said with a smile: "Wuyun Country has such a big appetite, what if we see that Long Cheng doesn't agree?"

"Don't agree?" Xi Yingzhuo faced Shen Feng's murderous gaze, without the slightest timidity, and said proudly: "Okay! Then I, Wuyun Country, will send troops to encircle and suppress the surrounding villages and towns of Jianlong City, and I will never give up if I don't turn Jianlong City into a place of death!"

Xi Yingzhuo's words made the whole room quiet all of a sudden.

Everyone had never imagined that this cloudless country would be able to come up with such a vicious method. Kill the villages and towns around Jianlong City? Those are some unarmed ordinary people, in order to deal with Jianlong City, can they do such a crazy thing?

Others were angry, and Shen Feng was even more annoyed, seeing that his face was flushed, and he forcibly suppressed the idea of slapping the other party to death with one palm, and sneered: "It seems that the prince has forgotten, until now, the lives of you and your sister are still in the hands of my dragon city." ”

Speaking of this, he also understood the meaning of the Cloud Country from the other party's tone. I don't think there's any point in having these pointless arguments with the other party now.

So, he waved his hand and said: "Although I see that Longcheng is not a heinous person, I also feel that he is not a bully who is afraid of the hard." Therefore, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should not say these cruel words that are difficult for strong men. If what you said is the final decision of your Cloud Nation Nation, then you can go and meet your sister and then go back and lead your troops to attack the battle. ”

"You mean I can go see my sister?" Shen Feng's sudden digression made Xi Yingzhuo a little surprised. In his opinion, Shen Feng would definitely take Xi Chuyue as a hostage to force himself to comply. And I already have it in my heart, if the benefits are considerable, I will temporarily give up the idea of the beginning of the west.

"Hmm!" Shen Feng nodded, "Visible at any time!"

"Okay, then I'll ask to see my sister!" said Xi Yingzhuo immediately.

"Someone, bring His Royal Highness the Crown Prince over!"

Shen Feng shouted, and then a guard ran in from outside the door, walked up to Xi Yingzhuo, and took him away.

Seeing Xi Yingzhuo's figure disappear completely, everyone spoke: "City Lord, should I go to train soldiers urgently now?"

"This cloudless country is too vicious, and it even thinks of harassing the surrounding villages and towns!"

"My lord, these villages and towns, for now, are the foundation of our Dragon City, and there must be no mistakes!"

"Yes, if there is a rebellion in the surrounding area, then we have too little room to move!"

"Damn, I can't wait to kill that kid right away!"

"Little white face, there is no good thing!"

......

"General Qiu, it seems that our armament is still not enough. Let's do it, and then we will divide some of our men and horses and set up them in the towns, and we will settle the expenses ourselves. On the one hand, it is to guard against some things, and on the other hand, it is possible to recruit suitable soldiers for the dragon city in the local area. ”

Seeing a few people nodding, Shen Feng said again: "Lord Song, you can discuss it with Mr. Zhuang and Mr. Guan to see if we can expand the plan for us to see Dragon City." If we alone rely on the Dragon City, the enemy's strength is still a little small! Of course, there is no need to rush this matter, and we can make long-term plans......"

"In addition, we have to set up a scout division, and after training, go out to the world to help us gather intelligence. In the future, it will not be like today, what attitude of the Cloud Country is, we can only know from the mouth of this Xi Yingzhuo. ”

Just when Shen Feng was explaining various things to everyone, Xi Yingzhuo met Xi Chuyue for the first time in the wing.

"Why are you here?" said Xi Yingzhuo curiously.

"Your Highness, since the news of your coming, Lord Shen has arranged me here!" Xi Chuyue was also sincerely happy to see his younger brother.

"They didn't embarrass you, did they?"

Xi Chuyue shook her head.

"Hmph, I knew they wouldn't dare! After all, how could such a small city be able to defeat the army of my Cloudless Country?"

Xi Chuyue looked at her younger brother, and a wry smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Aren't you negotiating with them?

"Don't mention it!"

As soon as he mentioned this, Xi Yingzhuo's face was depressed, and then he looked around, and after making sure that there was no one around, he said in a low voice: "It's all a group of reckless people! I can't say anything to them! I don't understand, just with these reckless men who only know how to fight and kill, how can they still manage Jianlong City so well! Sister, have you ever been out? I told you, I couldn't imagine that the streets here are so clean, especially those people, one by one, they are very happy! As everyone knows, once they start a war with my Cloud Less Country, the chance of them being able to survive is almost zero. ”

"Your Highness, Father asked you to come here just to start a war with Jianlong City?"

"Hehe, that's not true, when it comes to this matter, I also said to ask you! I don't understand, although our Wuyun Kingdom has failed this time, we can still continue to join forces with other countries, or recruit soldiers, and continue to fight! Why would my father offer such low conditions? I only want to see one percent of Longcheng's annual income, but I look at the appearance of this group of reckless people, and I feel angry, so I raise one percent to ninety percent. ”
