The barbarian ransom-paying team arrived two days later, and it turned out to be a team of women.
In barbarian tribes, women are not very strong in combat, so women usually take the lead in peace negotiations or paying ransom.
This makes it appear that they are not here to fight, but just to pay a ransom.
The leader was Hera, the daughter of Hetuli. Ye Liuyun also formally received Hera and served her tea.
Thirty thousand barbarian prisoners were waiting to leave in front of the military camp, and no one was watching them. They also obeyed the rules and no one escaped.
Before Hera entered the camp, she had already seen those people there.
However, she still sat down and tasted the tea, and understood Ye Liuyun's purpose of coming here.
Ye Liuyun saw that Hera was quite reasonable, so he also explained his purpose of coming.
"Now that the entire dynasty has been unified by me, I didn't know the situation of the barbarians before, so my subordinates took action rashly.
I came here to sign a peace contract with the barbarians. As long as the barbarians do not expand, I will not interfere in your lives.
Of course, if we can do business, it would be better to exchange some resources. I can arrange some dedicated people to connect with you.
However, your father is still not convinced and wants to fight with me again. Only after we lose will he agree to sign the contract.
I know that he has the idea of ​​​​expanding outwards, so I must defeat him and make him stop this idea.
In fact, if I send hundreds of thousands of troops, you won't be able to stop me at all. But I don't think it's necessary to go to war in such a big way.
I don't want to occupy your territory and control your lives. I just want your father to see our strength.
Otherwise, if I just kill these 30,000 people, why would I need a ransom to send them back to fight against me?"
Ye Liuyun spoke very sincerely and told the truth. Hera thought the same thing.
If Ye Liuyun really had a plan, he wouldn't give back their 30,000 fighting strength for a little ransom.
Although the ransom for these people is also quite large,
Compared with thirty thousand combat power, people are more important.
"I will try my best to help persuade my father when I get back!" Hera also said immediately.
Then she also learned from Ye Liuyun about possible transactions.
The resources of the barbarians are not bad, but elixirs, utensils, etc. are all weak points, and there are many medicinal materials that they do not have here.
They also need resources such as animal meat and hides. There are still many transactions that both parties can do.
Hera actually felt that if they could make a deal, their barbarian life would be better.
But now she can only find out first, and has to wait for his father's decision.
Although she is the daughter of the clan leader, her status among women in the clan is not high.
Barbarians are still warriors who are responsible for fighting and have more status within the tribe.
Ye Liuyun has learned a lot about the barbarians through soul searching, but if someone asks, he will tell them.
He didn't have to use Hera to help facilitate the signing of the agreement.
So after the two parties talked, Hera paid for the resources, which were all specialties of the barbarians.
Then she said goodbye and left, taking the thirty thousand people with her.
All the soul contracts that the hunting team had controlling them were also cancelled.
They didn't fight back immediately, and their weapons were confiscated by Ye Liuyun. They had to go back and prepare to fight again.
"I'll give you three days. After three days, we will enter the mountain!"
Ye Liuyun also said directly to Hetuli.
"Okay, let's fight again in three days!"
Hetuli also agreed and took his people to evacuate.
On their way back, Hera persuaded Hetuli to stop.
"If we continue to fight, there will definitely be casualties. It's better to sign a peace contract."
Hetuli disagreed: "How can that be done? They attacked us before in vain. If they didn't fight, they would think that we barbarians are easy to bully!
I don't think they are very strong. Maybe if we defeat them, we can expand our territory!
I think the flat land outside the mountain is very good, we can move some of the tribesmen to live here."
Hetuli still has the ambition to expand. It’s just that he felt that the people outside were strong before.
It doesn't look much better than them now. If they can fight their way out of the mountain, they can expand outward little by little.
As for Ye Liuyun's idea of ​​wanting to coexist peacefully with them, he didn't believe it at all.
He also taught Hera: "People outside are very cunning. How can you believe what they say?"
Hera couldn't refute it. She didn't know the people outside, so she could only look at Ye Liuyun's subsequent actions.
And she couldn't persuade her father, so she had no choice but to give up.
After Hetuli returned, he prepared his troops and prepared to fight again.
The barbarians have poor weapon refining skills, so they focus all their efforts on refining weapons. Even their armors are made of bamboo and rattan.
The armor can only slightly block bows, arrows, swords and guns, so the protection is not of much significance, but it is just slightly better than nothing.
He didn't summon any more people. There were more than 10,000 people on Ye Liuyun's side, and he felt that 30,000 people were enough.
After re-arming them, they went into the mountains again and laid an ambush in advance.
Ye Liuyun was not in a hurry. He returned to the cave world and accelerated his cultivation for three days. He refined a lot of the dragon soul source.
I also practiced fighting with Ye Tianzhi and the monsters to polish my divine energy and adapt to the new power.
Long Nu and others are refining resources, but now only Ye Jinyuan,
White Tiger, Stone Monkey, Suzaku and Demonic Lion can participate in the battle.
Ye Liuyun thought it was enough, so he didn't call Long Nu and others.
There are many people around him, including Luo Wanyun, Hua Manyue, Tong Lei, Zhang Yuhan, Xiao Ningxiang and Wei Tianqing.
Ning Xiaoyu, Xiao Chunfeng and Gu Qingwan, who do not need to refine the dragon body, will also join the battle.
Ye Liuyun also took the three of them with him.
Three days later, Ye Liuyun took these people, Li Qingfeng, and Li Yunxuan to the mountains to explore the way, in case there was an ambush by the barbarians.
The leader of the barbarian tribe, Hetuli, is really not simple. Usually people would think that the ambush would be deep in the mountains.
But he laid an ambush just as he entered the mountain.
As soon as Ye Liuyun and the others entered the mountain, the white tiger and other ferocious beasts discovered that there was more human smell in the mountain.
So they immediately retreated, and Ye Liuyun and Ye Tianqi used Thousand Illusions to transform into ordinary ferocious beasts to check the situation.
The two of them went around in a circle and explored all the ambush circles of the barbarians.
Then Ye Liuyun and Ye Tianhao led people into two teams to prepare for action, while Li Qingfeng led people to capture Hetuli.
Hetuli was wondering why Ye Liuyun and the others hadn't made any move even after three days.
"They definitely didn't expect that they would be ambushed by us as soon as they entered the mountain! We can kill at least half of them in this battle!"
He was just thinking about something good when the teams that were ambushing in the col on both sides of them suddenly encountered a fire attack.
Ye Liuyun set the fire all the way, and Suzaku set the fire all the way.
There are lush vegetation in the woods, and many tribal warriors wear armor made of bamboo and rattan, which is easy to wear.
Those bamboo and rattan are soaked in oil to strengthen their defense capabilities.
Therefore, those barbarian warriors were unable to use their true energy to protect themselves, and many of them were directly burned to death.
