Chapter 156 The discussion between the two sides on the conditions proposed by Tang Yin also opened the prelude to a tug-of-war, and Besa's ministers also participated in the recent past.
As for the first condition, not to station a large army on the border between the two sides, the city-state of Besa agreed, but asked Tang Yin not to garrison a large army on his side, as a sign of fairness.
At present, Tang Yin did not have extra troops to garrison the border, so he naturally accepted Besa's conditions.
The second condition was to open all the cities of Besa for trade, and at the same time, Sánchez agreed and asked Tang Yin to open the cities of the Windy Country to Besa as well, at least all the cities in the land under Tang Yin's jurisdiction were open to Besa.
Tang Yin resolutely did not back down at this point, and opening the city was equivalent to allowing the Besa people to enter and exit freely, in case of letting Besa's troops mix into the city in large numbers, it would be troublesome to suddenly attack.
And Besa's side also has the same concerns as Tang Yin, the two sides go back and forth, fight with reason, and no one makes concessions.
In the end, the negotiations reached an impasse, and Tang Yin and Sánchez could only take a step back, Tang Yin promised to open the border city and Hengcheng, and Sánchez promised to open the five cities on the border of Besa.
On this second point, the two sides finally reached an agreement again.
When the third condition was reached, Tang Yin proposed to ask Besa to compensate him, and one mouth was 500,000 taels of gold and 5 million taels of silver.
Besa was willing to give so much gold and silver, and the two sides bargained over compensation, but in the end they did not come up with a result.
By this time, it was already dark, and both sides were a little tired now, feeling more difficult than fighting on the battlefield.
Sanchez said: "General Tang, it's too late now, we will discuss this matter tomorrow."
Tang Yin nodded and said, "Of course you can." ” Sanchez said with a smile: "There will be a dinner in the palace tonight, and I hope General Tang can stay and participate." ” Tang Yin just wanted to refuse, but he was stunned for a moment, and then agreed: "That's good, it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ” Sanchez laughed.
The dinner at the Royal Palace of Besa was extraordinary, not only on a large scale, but also on a sumptuous banquet.
The banquet hall was nearly five meters high, about twenty meters long and wide, and the huge hall was full of people, all of whom were dignitaries of the city-state of Besa and their families, and groups of servants came and went, shuttling among the crowd.
Tang Yin was no stranger to this kind of Western-style banquet, but Shangguan Yuanrang was amazed, and he felt fresh when he saw everything, especially the glass cups used in the banquet, which were crystal clear, like crystal, this kind of thing could not be seen in the country of wind.
The participants were all nobles from Besa, only Tang Yin and Shangguan Yuanrang, the two wind people, and only the two of them were dressed differently from others, so they naturally became the focus of the banquet, and many nobles had already heard of Tang Yin's name, so they took the opportunity of the banquet to take a look and see what kind of person he was.
After seeing Tang Yin's appearance clearly, the nobles of Besa were disappointed, they thought that Tang Yin had three heads and six arms, it turned out that he was inferior to ordinary Bessa, his height of one meter eight can only be regarded as medium among Besa people, and his figure is thin, plus he is born with a smiling face, the face of an Oriental person, he looks like a half-grown child in Besa, and it has nothing to do with a demon holding a sickle.
However, Shangguan Yuanrang beside him has a mighty wind, a big black face is not angry but mighty, and his expression is cold, like a black-faced god.
During the banquet, the officials in charge of entertaining Tang Yin in the royal court of Besa introduced him to the surrounding nobles from time to time, and even if Tang Yin's brain was smart, he couldn't remember so many complicated names and surnames.
However, a young woman in a white sand dress beside Sanchez caught Tang Yin's attention, this girl was twenty-three or four years old, blonde hair and blue eyes, snow-white skin, and a high nose bridge, which could be called beautiful and moving from the eyes of both Orientals and Westerners.
The reason why Tang Yin was able to pay attention to her was because she drifted her gaze to herself from time to time, and her eyes revealed confidence and provocation, as if the two had met before, but in Tang Yin's impression, he had no impression of this woman.
Shangguan Yuan let his eyes sharpen, leaned over to Tang Yin's side, looked at him, and then looked at the girl beside King Besa, and asked, "Do you know her?"
Tang Yin shook his head.
"She seems to be very interested in you," Shangguan Yuan said with a smile.
Tang Yin frowned, raised his nose and sniffed, the smell of wine was in his nose, obviously Shangguan Yuan was not greedy for a cup, he did not answer, but said in a deep voice: "Drink less wine." ” "Compared to the spirits of the Windy Country, the wine of Besa is like sugar water."
Shangguan Yuanrang said disapprovingly.
"This kind of alcohol is very energetic, it is easier to get intoxicated, don't forget where we are now, if we get drunk, it will be difficult to protect our surname," Tang Yin said quietly.
The wine at the banquet is red wine, which tastes sour, sweet, and astringent, and the taste of the wine is insufficient, but it is easy for people to get drunk unconsciously.
Shangguan Yuanrang looked at Tang Yin in surprise, feeling that his knowledge was wider than his own, as if there was nothing he didn't understand.
He admired it, but he didn't say it, he said nonchalantly: "There is no wine in this world that can get drunk with me" As he spoke, he put down the cup in his hand and took another sip.
At this moment, Knis walked towards Tang Yin surrounded by a group of people.
Just looking at his arrogant posture when he walked, Tang Yin had a premonition that trouble was coming, and the surrounding nobles also seemed to sense that something was wrong, and they all stopped talking and looked at them.
Kneis walked directly to Tang Yin, smiled, and asked hypocritically: "General Tang, are you satisfied with the food and drinks at the banquet?"
Tang Yin remained silent and said indifferently: "It's not too good, it's not too bad." ” Kneis was stunned for a moment, then laughed angrily, he turned slightly sideways, turned his head and pointed to a strong man behind him, and said, "This is the king of fighting in our Besa, who has won more than fifty consecutive fights in the gladiatorial arena and has never been defeated. ” Tang Yin raised his eyes to look at the big man on Knys's finger.
This is a pure black race, more than two meters tall, strong in shape, like a big buffalo, with no hair on his head, bright and shiny, black skin about to be oily, flat nose, thick lips turned out, and the side of the forehead has the characteristic ring cross mark of the Besa slaves, I don't know which country the Besa people captured slaves from.
Tang Yin looked at the black man, and the black man was also looking Tang Yin up and down, only looking at it twice, his flat nose was forbidden, and he let out a heavy cold snort.
"Your Lingwu is very strong, I admire it, but I don't know how the fighting skills are, General Tang has the courage to dare to fight him without Lingwu" Kneis raised his chin and glanced at Tang Yin with contemptuous eyes.
Hearing this, the entire banquet hall fell silent, and people turned their heads to look at Tang Yin, including Sanchez, the king of Besa, and the girls beside him.
Shangguan Yuanrang didn't know what he was talking about, but he also felt a rough idea, he laughed, and said to Tang Yin: "If you want to fight, let me come."
Tang Yin waved his hand at him.
Shangguan Yuan's cultivation is high, but if he only talks about fighting skills, he may not be able to beat this kind of slave who specializes in gladiatorial fighting.
He looked at Shangkenes and smiled, "Why not, I just feel sorry for Your Excellency. ” Knys was puzzled and blurted out, "What is a pity?"
"It's a pity to lose a slave who is very good at fighting."
"Haha" Knys laughed, not knowing whether he was amused by Tang Yin or laughed at by him, he poked his head, approached Tang Yin, and said: "If General Tang thinks that he is invincible during the fight, in order to save his life, you can also use Lingwu." ” Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "There's no need for that. ” "Okay" Knis snapped his fingers and shouted to the surrounding nobles: "Get out of the way, let's see how strong General Tang's fighting is" As he spoke, he himself was retreating, and when he passed by the black man's side, he whispered: "Gru, kill him" The black slave named Gru stared at Tang Yin, snorting and panting, Chengren's thigh-thick arms, green tendons bulging high, like a beast about to be released.

At this time, a Besa guard stepped forward and handed a spear to Gru, and another guard also handed Tang Yin an identical spear, but after Tang Yin took it, he didn't even look at it, he threw it away, turned around and walked to the table, picked up a wine glass between his fingers, and said with a light smile: "If you want to take his surname, the wine glass is enough." ” After hearing Tang Yin's words, the nobles of Besa were in an uproar.
Although Gru is only a slave, he is very famous in Besa, as Kness said, he has never lost in the tearing in the gladiatorial arena, and countless gladiators have died in his hands, and this time Kness brought him in, which was also intended to frustrate Tang Yin's spirit.
Seeing that Tang Yin was about to take a wine glass and fight with Gru holding a spear, King Sanchez also smiled, waiting to see a good show, while the girl next to him looked at Tang Yin with her eyes shining and her eyes unblinking.
In the middle of the field, watching Tang Yin, who was holding a wine glass, walk slowly towards him, Gru suddenly roared angrily, pounced with a spear, and stabbed Tang Yin's chest with the spear in his hand.
"Oh" The nobles of Besa exclaimed in amazement, and the faces of the people were full of horror and excitement, whether they were men or women, old and young.
In their eyes, this is not a duel between two lives at all, but a game that brings them excitement and fun.
This is the aristocracy of Besa.
Tang Yin sneered in his heart, just because the Besa people don't treat slaves as human beings, they can let themselves be used in the future.
Thinking to himself, the others were not idle, and when the spear stabbed him closely, he slid under his feet, and his body flashed behind Gru at an incredible angle and speed.
Gru does have something extraordinary, such a huge body, but he reacts very quickly and moves extremely sensitively, and then he backhanded a spear and stabbed Tang Yin behind him
