"Slave Ai Ba Li, I have met Li Shuai, I have met Chen Shuai, I have met Master Yang."

In the big tent, Aiba Li knelt down respectfully in front of Li Yuanqing and the other three, saluting meticulously.

Ai Bali is about in his early thirties this year. He has a very majestic but extremely well-proportioned figure. He has broad shoulders, a strong waist, and bow-legged features, typical of Jurchen warriors.

Although his face is somewhat ugly and repulsive, and his stature is not very tall, the proportions of his entire body are very coordinated, just like that of a wild beast. At a glance, one can understand that there is something hidden in this guy's body.

Explosive power.

It’s no wonder~, there has always been a rumor that ‘there are not even ten thousand Jurchens, and there are ten thousand people who are invincible’.

The overall characteristics of these Jurchens, compared with the Han people, seem to have not yet fully evolved, and are very vulgar and ugly.

But as the saying goes, 'Every disadvantage has an advantage'. Their unique innate conditions are destined to make them qualified warriors with a little training, because they are born warriors.

"Are you Aibali?"

Chen Zhong looked at Aiba coldly and condescendingly and said.

"Returning to Chen Shuai, my slave is Ai Ba Li. Chen Shuai, although we have never met, we are definitely not strangers."

Ai Bali had obviously done enough homework and could quickly distinguish between Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhonglai.

Moreover, what he said was extremely flattering. Obviously, his personal art, or political wisdom, was by no means low.

At this time, after hearing what Ai Ba Li said, Chen Zhong couldn't help laughing: "That's the truth. Your Excellency Ai Ba Li, being famous is not as good as meeting him!"

Aibali hurriedly raised his hands and said with a smile: "Chen Shuai, the two countries are fighting, and casualties are inevitable. If the situation is not such, the slave and the master of the slave, in fact, do not want to be enemies with Liaonan."

Chen Zhong sneered, but ignored Ai Bali.

Are you kidding me?

With his identity as Chen Zhong, being able to say hello to Ai Ba Li was already a huge honor for him.

Not to mention, it's Li Yuanqing.

But this guy actually wanted to get close to him, Chen Zhong, by stepping on his nose and getting close to him. How could Chen Zhong give him a good face?

Li Yuanqing felt funny in his heart, but he was not in a hurry to show it.

Although Ai Bali can be regarded as a distinguished member of the Zhenglan Banner, they are really not the same in front of Liaonan at this time.

If Mang Gurtai came over, he could barely be on the same level as Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, but Ai Ba Li obviously does not have this qualification.

When treating soldiers, you must be approachable and love them as your own children.

But when it comes to dealing with enemies, you must never let go of any etiquette.

Ai BaLi also realized the problem at this time, and couldn't help but feel embarrassed for a moment.

But he couldn't have an attack... because he was indeed one level worse than Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong. He could only look at Li Yuanqing helplessly, hoping that Li Yuanqing would come out to seek justice.

Li Yuanqing played with the cigar in his hand lightly and said with a smile: "Your Excellency Aibali, I am very pleased with the sincerity of Your Excellency Mang Gurtai. War is actually an inferior method. Although I have never been with Mr. Mang Gurtai.

We have never met, but I believe that we will reach a consensus."

Aiba Li smiled hurriedly and cupped his hands and said: "What Li Shuai said is absolutely true. Li Shuai, your mind is like the vastest grassland, as broad as the eternal sky. I will truthfully convey your thoughts to my family."

master."

Li Yuanqing smiled and played with the cigar in his hand, ignoring Ai BaLi.

On the sidelines, Yang Miao knew that it was time for him to appear.

According to the practice of the Ming Dynasty, civil servants, especially a fifth-rank official like him, were far superior to weak-legged military attachés such as Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, both in terms of qualifications and status.

It's a pity... This is in southern Liaoning, so naturally he will do these 'cool jobs'...

Yang Miaocai cleared his throat, looked at Ai Bali with a smile and said: "Your Excellency Ai Ba Li, we Li Shuai and Chen Shuai appreciate the goodwill of Your Excellency Mang Gurtai and Zhenglan Qi very much, but~, there are some things we must do

I have to say it first."

Aibali looked at the extremely shrewd-eyed civil servant in front of him, and was a little stunned for a moment.

This is obviously not in line with common sense...

But Aiba Li saw Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong who were looking calm and relaxed, and he immediately understood that the protagonist who was talking today was probably the civil servant in front of him.

He smiled hurriedly and said, "Is this Mr. Yang, a talented man from the Three Jin Dynasties? If you have any opinions, I am all ears."

Yang Miaocai was originally a little bit frightened.

After all, what he is facing now is a real slave. And he is a close slave of the famous Mang Gurtai.

If he were to get violent, with Yang Miaocai's small body, ten of him would not be able to be the opponent of Ai Ba Li...

In particular, in the past few years, there have been so-called disputes between the Ming Dynasty and Hou Jin Dynasty, but every time, the Ming Dynasty ended with "hemorrhage".

But Yang Miaocai soon remembered that at this moment, sitting behind him were the world-famous Li Yuanqing and the famous Chen Zhong.

This is Changsheng Camp, the main camp for Liaonan officers.

Now that he loves Ba Li, he is just a dog slave. How can he turn the world upside down?

After grasping the core theme, Yang Miaocai also restored his arrogant charm and said with a smile: "Your Excellency Aibali, although Your Excellency Mang Gurtai's sincerity is very gratifying. But Your Excellency Aibali, you also know that we

The two countries are in a fierce war at this time. Therefore, I must say some ugly words first."

"Haha. That's the truth of course. Master Yang, please tell me."

Although Ai Bali remained respectful on his lips and face, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.

When did civil servants who knew how to be a dog dare to be so arrogant? Aren't they all like dogs, only kneeling down and wagging their tails to beg for mercy?

But soon, Aibali also recognized the reality, especially the man who was sitting on the tiger skin throne not far behind, playing with the cigar in his hand, and looking at him with a smile...

Yang Miaocai naturally felt the unwillingness in Ai Bali's eyes, and his heart felt extremely happy for a moment.

He clearly knew how Liaoxi was negotiating with Hou Jin at the beginning of the year. They were led by the nose by these barbarians.

But at this time, all the initiative was in his hands.

Smiling and walking back and forth for a few steps, Yang Miaocai said with a smile: "Your Excellency Aibali, regarding your request to return the Lord Baiyin Atu of Lianshanguan City, after our careful discussion in Liaonan, Li Shuai and Chen Shuai nodded, we

In principle, I agree. After all, we are all a family. There are some barriers that cannot be eliminated. But~, weapons are important and military weapons are important. Your Excellency Aibali must also understand that once troops are sent out, it will be simply

It is a waste of people and money! Therefore, we in Liaonan also have some requirements that we must make clear to Your Excellency Aiba Li and your master, Your Excellency Mang Gurtai!"

Ai BaLi already had a very bad premonition in his heart. This scumbag civil servant had no idea what kind of medicine Huahua Guangzhong was selling.

But at this time, the situation was stronger than the situation. Even if Aiba Li was unhappy and extremely unhappy, he would never dare to show it easily. He could only accompany him with a smile and said: "Master Yang, please speak, I am all ears."

"hehe."

Yang Miaocai smiled faintly, but his aura suddenly became sharp, as if he was a saint warrior wearing armor, "Your Excellency Aibali, your young master Baiyin Atu has been with our army for more than ten days. As you know, Baiyin

Young Master Atu has a noble status. He eats, drinks, and has diarrhea every day, and must be carefully fed. So, calculated as ten thousand taels of silver per day, this is less than half a month, and the total is 150,000 taels of silver."

"What?"

Aiba Li almost wanted to vomit blood.

With ten thousand taels of silver a day, is Baiyin Atu a pig? No, even if Baiyin Atu is a pig with ten thousand taels, there is no way he can eat so much silver in one day!

Damn it, it's obvious that these smart dogs want the lion to open its mouth.

Yang Miaocai naturally noticed Ai Ba Li's expression, but he was calm and smiled lightly: "Your Excellency Ai Ba Li, don't be anxious for now. This is just the first point. For the second point, let's talk about war horses. We are the Ming Army.

Came from the south of Liaoning, we are short of men and horses, the men are exhausted from hard work, and the horses are badly damaged. However, because Your Excellency Mang Gurtai, Li Shuai and Chen Shuai are old acquaintances, I will give you a 20% discount.

!”

As he spoke, Yang Miaocai's voice suddenly turned cold, "Zhenglan Banner needs to compensate our Liaonan side for 1,500 excellent war horses!"

"this……"

Aibali opened his mouth wide, fearing that he might be able to swallow the football. After a moment, he knelt down on the ground again, looked at Li Yuanqing, kowtowed hard and said: "Li Shuai, Li Shuai. This, this, you, you and Ming

With such an attitude of the army, how can this negotiation continue! If the slave brings these demands back to the camp, the master will be afraid that he will tear the slave alive! Li Shuai..."

Li Yuanqing smiled lightly, "Your Excellency Aibali, we are negotiating. We have to sit down and have a good talk. We on the Liaonan side are just stating our position. If Your Excellency Aibali feels it is inappropriate, then there is no need to continue the negotiation!"

We will see the truth on the battlefield!"

"Uh? This..."

Aiba Li just wanted to give himself a slap in the face.

It was he who originally proposed this negotiation request, and Mang Gurtai trusted him very much and gave him the opportunity to meet Li Yuanqing.

But if the talks fall apart and he thinks with his butt, he also knows the consequences.

Yang Miaocai had already understood at this time that in front of Li Yuanqing, this Ai Ba Li, even Mang Gurtai, was nothing more than a bug, firmly trampled under Li Yuanqing's feet.

He couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Excellency Aiba Li, as Li Shuai said, when it comes to negotiation, it is natural to sit down and have a good talk. If Your Excellency Ai Bali thinks you can accept it, then accept it. If you can't accept it, then we will see the result on the battlefield.

!However, I was too hasty in what I said just now. If you are willing to accept our two conditions, we will also make some concessions to you. For example, we will return some Jurchen women to you, and,

A small number of Jurchen slaves."

"this……"

Ai Baili suddenly fell into deep thought.

At this time, Yang Miaocai secretly glanced at Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing nodded slowly.

Yang Miaocai smiled again and said: "By the way, Your Excellency Aibali, there is a third point. In order to express our sincerity, my Li Shuai sincerely invites Your Excellency Mang Gurtai to come to the neutral location ahead for an interview in person!"
