Chapter 776: Negotiation
readx;? Ming Qin snorted coldly, he also imagined the scene outside, although the mutiny of the forbidden army was fueled by the Dragon Prince and Taixuan, they did not have the courage to kill the Dragon Emperor, and the Dragon Emperor fled from the Mingyue Tower, to the surprise of the Dragon Prince, it must be difficult to sleep at this time.

"Your Majestyβ"
The two girls swept out of the bushes next to the bamboo building, and saw Ming Qin with a look of surprise.
"Xiaoqiong, sister-in-law, are you all right, what about the others?"
Ming Qin turned his head and saw that it was Huang Xiaoqiong and Qiu Lingyu, although the two women were a little messy, fortunately they were not injured.
"Everyone has withdrawn to the temple, who is this person?"
Qiu Lingyu glanced at Xiao Li vigilantly, the scale armor army suddenly attacked the village, if it wasn't for the Yaksha people's early preparations, they would have suffered many casualties and heavy losses. Xiao Li was wearing fish scale armor, and he knew that he was the general of the Sha General Army.
"The Yaksha is a friend of the widow, General Xiao, the widow ordered you to restrain the sailor and return to the ship to standby, you can do it?"
Ming Qin escaped from Mingyue Tower, and really became a lonely man, whether it was the Yaksha clan or the Scaly Army, it was worth using, and it was best for the two sides to shake hands and make peace.
"The last will obey. β
Xiao Li was quite cunning, and after learning that the Yaksha people rushed to the Demon Flame Valley to help, he immediately came up with a plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and the arrangement was not unscrupulous. Who knows that people are not as good as heaven, there is a master like Ming Qin in the Yaksha clan, and he is the emperor of the dragon clan, if Xiao Li dares to disobey the order, the Silver Shark clan will be in danger of being wiped out.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will go and restrain the armor. β
Ming Qin was relieved to learn that the Jade Concubine sisters were safe and sound, and although the Yaksha clan evacuated before the scale army attacked, the house was burned down a lot, and the losses were great.
The scale armor army lost its main general, and its morale was low, and they fought separately, and the Yin Qing brothers and sisters collected the remnants and gradually took the initiative.
"Your Majesty, the last general will return to the ship first to wait. β
The Scales and the Yaksha had casualties and hatred for each other, Xiao Li knew that this was not the place to speak, so he arched his hand, swept back into the military formation, and ordered to evacuate.
When the scale armor army saw Xiao Li coming back, the army's heart was revived, and the order was like a mountain, no one dared to fight and not retreat, so they immediately gathered their formation and retreated overseas.
The scale armor army evacuated in an orderly manner, the formation was not chaotic, the Yin Gang brothers thought that there was an opportunity, and led the clansmen to pursue the victory.
Yin Qing shouted: "Don't chase it, go back to the village to put out the fire." β
The Scales still have the advantage in strength and firearms, and it is not easy to repel them, and any further stalemate will only increase unnecessary casualties.
The Yaksha people cared about their families, and after listening to Yin Qing's words, they thought it was true, and rushed to the village without waiting for orders.
Ming Qin stepped forward and comforted Yin Qing and said, "The people who stayed behind have already withdrawn to the temple, but fortunately, there are no casualties." β
Yin Qing nodded slightly, and said puzzledly: "Why did you let go of the enemy general?"
Just now Ming Qin captured Xiao Li, the formation of the scale armor army changed greatly, and the Yaksha people had a good chance to turn defeat into victory, but they never expected that Ming Qin would release Xiao Li, and the scale armor army was able to regroup again.
"Kill a thousand, and lose eight hundred. Since the Yaksha people who stayed behind were not harmed, I think it would be better for the two clans to take a step back and make peace. β
In this battle, the Silver Shark and Yaksha clans were quite killed and wounded, and there were no eyes on the battlefield, which was also inevitable, and there would be many casualties if they continued to fight. The Silver Shark people are very brave, they are not under the Yakshas, and they are the generals of the Dragon Dynasty, and their weapons and firearms are far superior to the Yakshas, so how easy is it to destroy them all?
Yin Qing was silent when she heard this, she was originally quite angry at Ming Qin's approach, and it was not unreasonable to think about it carefully. The scale armor firearms are well-armed, and they came prepared, the Yaksha people can't set up an ambush, they have already lost, the backyard is on fire, and the care is chaotic, and the party is just barely supporting.
While fighting the fire, the Yin Qing brothers and sisters sent people to the Demon Flame Valley and the temple to contact Qianliyun and the hidden clansmen. The houses in the village are all made of bamboo and wood, which is very flammable. Fortunately, Xiao Li threw himself into the air, and he was also afraid that the Yaksha people would play some tricks, and set fire just to disrupt the Yaksha people's strategy and make them withdraw their troops to save them, and most of the houses that were burning were closer to the direction of the Demon Flame Valley, and black smoke rose from the accumulation of oilcloths, so that the houses farther away could be saved.
In the evening, the soldiers and horses in the two places withdrew one after another, and Qianliyun imprisoned several people in the Shachong Formation, and convened the leaders of the big and small to discuss the matter. The Yakshas, who no longer dared to take it lightly, assigned their leaders to build fortifications and strengthen their guards.
Since the rise of the Qinglong Dynasty, the seven seas have been peaceful for a long time, and the people do not know about the war, so the turtle and the two thieves suddenly raised troops, and they stirred the sea, and the Longming Emperor fled in a hurry, and the world has been troubled since then.
This incident has taught the Yaksha people a lesson, and it is inevitable that they will make amends. Although the Scales retreated from their ships, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not make a comeback. There is such a group of strong enemies on Yaksha Island, Qianliyun no longer dares to ignore them, and now the military disasters are continuous, the four seas are in chaos, and the remnants of the army like the Scales Army are defeated, or the pirates and thieves do not know how many, only by holding the city can they be foolproof.
Fortunately, Qianliyun was busy defending the war and had no time to discuss the marriage of his two sons, and the sisters of the Huang family were also secretly relieved.
Although Qianliyun held the sand chong formation, he was also greatly injured, not only did the clansmen suffer many casualties, the houses were burned, and many clansmen were homeless, so they could only cover the sky and the ground, and brave the wind and rain.
Two days later, Xiao Li sent people to ask for Sha Chong's array, Sha Chong's array was the patriarch of the Silver Shark people, and the general of the Dragon Dynasty, and the chief soldier. Xiao Li naturally couldn't abandon it.
The person who came was a middle-aged general, with two mustaches on his lips, and he spoke politely.
Qianliyun and several clan elders sat on the ground, all expressionless, needless to say that their hatred for the Scaly Armor Army was unquenched.
General Zuo said politely: "General Xiao greets His Excellency the Patriarch, we are willing to redeem the Lord General Soldier by redeeming the hostages, 'it is better to settle the dispute', and I hope that the Patriarch will raise his noble hand and let us go of the Lord General Soldier." Everything else is negotiable. β
Several clan elders looked left and right, and whispered, Sha Chong Array is the chief soldier of the Dragon Dynasty, although he is unwilling to let go, it is also a hot hand in his hand, and the Silver Shark people will definitely refuse to give up.
"What do the clan elders think?"
Although Qianliyun is the head of a clan, he still has a lot of respect for the witch and the clan elder, this time the witch colluded with Sha Chong Array to plot wrongdoing, and Qianliyun captured her and Sha Chong Array together, but he never convicted him.
The witch has a very high status in the clan, has a close relationship with several patriarchs, and as the years go by, the Yaksha clan is no longer so obedient to the Lombarians, and there are many people who secretly think about it, but they dare not act rashly because of the clan rules.
The witch made a start, so that the people who coveted the dragon ginseng were also ready to move, and they had to consider what crime to arrange for the witch.
A thin old man with a gray beard spoke: "Sha Chong Array is also the chief soldier of the Dragon Dynasty, although he violated the rules of our clan by trespassing in the Demon Flame Valley, thinking that he is not a member of his own clan, it seems that he can open the net." But is it tolerable for the generals under his command to attack our people's villages and burn down their houses? They should be allowed to compensate for our people's losses first, and then talk about releasing them. β
"What the patriarch said is very true. Qianliyun smiled and nodded, these clan elders rely on the old and sell the old, and they don't know the current affairs, so naturally they can't say any clever opinions.
Sha Mao hurriedly said: "General Xiao redeems the hostages, and he has the meaning of compensating the nobles. The patriarch can convert the losses of this battle into it, calculate it all at once, and there is no need to trade again and again to delay the years. β
The Yaksha people dragged the sand chong array in their hands, if they were insatiable to ask for compensation again and again, Xiao Li would definitely be overwhelmed, she was cunning and wise, and she had already figured out this section, so she insisted on a delivery and redeemed the sand chong array directly.
Qianliyun smiled slightly, "There is not only one hostage in my hand, but also Xiao Beier, the witch, and the mane, I don't know if you are willing to redeem it?"
It is useless for this person to remain in his hands, and it is always a curse for a witch to remain in the clan, and there are many who intercede for her, and if she is killed, she will offend some people. Qianliyun wanted to kick her to the Silver Shark Man.
Sha Mao frowned and said: "General Xiao confessed that he only needs to redeem General Sha, as for whether to redeem other people, he needs to be determined by General Sha himself." β
Although Xiao Beier and the others are insignificant, after all, they are also the confidants of General Sha. But if the Yakshasas are asked for a price one by one, they don't know how much gold and silver they will have to spend.
Xiao Li is like a god, and he has already explained all the problems that Sha Mao may encounter. As long as he can redeem Sha Zongbing, others will not be able to call any price, Sha Zongbing is free, and it is up to him to decide whether to ransom people or not.
"It's not going to work. Qianliyun shook his head and said: "Since it is a transaction, these people have to be redeemed together, you picked the most valuable one, and it is useless for me to keep the remaining crooked melons and cracked dates." β
Sha Mao was stunned, "Dare to ask the patriarch to offer a price first, so I can go back and discuss it with General Xiao." β
"Not busy. Since the losses of our clan are all included, we must strictly calculate them. In addition, the patriarch has a few conditions, from now on, your warships must retreat to a distance of fifty miles, and then they must not set foot on Yaksha Island for half a step. Otherwise, the patriarch will not be spared. β
Although there is no guarantee that the Silver Sharks will not come back after they have withdrawn, they can at least buy a little time to build the walled city, even if the Silver Sharks make a comeback in the future, or if there are other enemies, the Yaksha people will gather to defend them, and they will not collapse at the touch of a button.
"Yes, yes. The patriarch's words will be conveyed at the end, and I hope that the patriarch will calculate a price as soon as possible and give us an answer. β
Sha Mao didn't expect the trip to agree to an agreement, and despite Qianliyun's grim attitude, he finally did not veto the proposal to redeem the hostages, which made him secretly relieved.
What followed was a protracted negotiation, and Qianliyun was a drunkard's intention not to drink, in order to build the walled city as soon as possible and hold the city. Of course, Xiao Li did not want to withdraw his troops easily, and sent soldiers to negotiate the price and other conditions of the ransom almost every day.
Qianliyun withdrew all the clansmen to the village, the Demon Flame Valley was undefended, and the situation of the Longbo people was still very dangerous. Previously, the four seas were leveled, and there were not many people from the Dragon Dynasty who came to the island, and the Longbo people lived in a secluded place, and even the Yaksha people were rare to see, and many descendants did not even know the existence of dragon ginseng, and finally lived a stable life.
This time, the witch leaked the traces of the dragon ginseng to the Sha Chong array, causing an uproar. The news spread quickly, and it was inevitable that some clansmen would talk in private, 'The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty', and the Longbo people fell into a precarious situation again.
Su Yi and Xiu Yuan live in Qianliyun's house, living in a simple house, except for Ming Qin and the Yufei sisters, not many people know about their existence.
Ming Qin didn't talk to the Jade Concubine sisters and ate dragon ginseng to live forever, people's hearts are unpredictable, it's better not to experiment, Ming Qin doesn't believe in such words, and there is no guarantee that others will not be lucky.
The Jade Concubine sisters have lived in the Yaksha clan for a while, but they have also become acquainted, changed into the clothes of the Yaksha people, and followed Yin Qing to do what they could, which was not lonely. Although the Yaksha has the name of an evil spirit, he has traveled all over the seven seas, and his customs are also different. Qianliyun is a descendant of the Yaksha King, and has more contact with other races, so it is more open.
Moreover, the Yufei sisters are graceful and beautiful, and they attract attention wherever they go, and the Yin Gang brothers are bent on marrying the Huang family sisters, and they are diligent in every way, and even if other clansmen have some thoughts, they have no choice but to stop when they see this situation.
Mingqin has nothing to do these days, he is not a member of the Yaksha clan, and he can't follow the Jade Concubine sisters to deliver water and cook for the Yaksha people who built the walled city, so he is idle.
The Yaksha and the Scales are still negotiating, and Mingqin knows Qianliyun's intentions, and even if he has the intention to promote them, he will not agree, so he has to go with the flow.
Su Yi and Xiu Yuan hid in the room and didn't dare to go out, and they always wanted to return to the Demon Flame Valley and take the opportunity to talk to Ming Qin. Ming Qin wanted to leave Xiu Yuan behind, but he couldn't go against the wishes of the two.
"Now that the Sand Chong Formation has been captured, the Scales and the Yaksha are negotiating, and the wind is calm outside, it won't hurt you two to go back and see. β
"Brother, it's great that you promised to take us back. β
Xiu Yuan jumped lightly, threw himself on Ming Qin's chest, grabbed his shirt and giggled.
Ming Qin was startled, and hurriedly stretched out to support her petite body, and hesitated, "Do you want to talk to the patriarch?"
Queen Suyi said: "Lina is busy with affairs, you can just talk to her when she is free." We are still suitable for living in the deep valley, there are too many people in the village, and I feel terrified when I hear the footsteps. β
Xiu Yuan said: "Yes, the queen mother can't sleep at night?"
Ming Qin knew that they had become frightened birds, and it was difficult for ordinary people to understand these mentalities, at the beginning, the Lombard people had destroyed countless countries, and I am afraid that they would never dream that future generations would fall into such a pathetic and pitiful situation.
"Queen, you and Xiu Yuan are hiding in my clothes, and I will send you back with the Divine Flying Technique. β
Mingqin didn't want to attract people's eyes, so hiding plain clothes and repairs in clothes was naturally a safe way.
Queen Suyi was not born a villain like Xiu Yuan, she was only shrunk into this way by being forbidden by the Protoss. (To be continued.) )
