Great Song Pirate

Chapter 414
Hearing this order from the guard officer, Zhang Xiao couldn't help but blushed a little. It was undoubtedly a humiliation for him, an imposing envoy of a country, to report to the door, but what made him even more embarrassed was that the other party was not an enemy country at all. The army is just a pirate, but he can be humiliated in such a way that he can't help feeling a strong sense of sadness in his heart. Feeling ashamed and indignant in his heart, he puffed out his chest and shouted: "Zhang Xiao, Li Chao's servant, came to see the commander of the Fubo army!"

At this time, a shout came from the big tent: "My lord has an order, please see the special envoy of Li Chao in the account!"

Then Zhang Xiao folded his fists and raised his legs and walked into the big tent. In the big tent stood more than a dozen generals of the Fubo Army with their chests and belly folded, each of them raised their heads high and looked at the special envoy of the Li Dynasty who entered the door. Zhang Xiao couldn't help but feel a little terrified, and his momentum weakened a little bit imperceptibly.

Zhang Xiao looked up, and saw a young Song general sitting behind a large table in the big tent. This person was only in his 20s, with eyebrows like flying swords and eyes like bright stars, sitting majestically on the After Shuai's case, Zhang Xiao was looking up at him, and Zhang Xiao was quite surprised again. In his mind, the pirate leader who can control such a force must be at least a person of a certain age. He never thought of this terrible The leader of the Skeleton Army was so young, he couldn't help being a little stunned in astonishment.

"Annan came here to be so rude, why don't you pay homage when you see our lord?" Cui Yan, who followed Zhang Xiao in, saw him in a daze, so he immediately shouted.

"Cui Yan must not be rude to the special envoy! Why don't you step down?" Xu Yi, who was sitting behind the handsome case, immediately reprimanded Cui Yan.

Cui Yan hurriedly bowed and cupped his fists to express his guilt, then stepped aside, staring at Zhang Xiao.

Only at this time did Zhang Xiao realize his impoliteness, so he quickly cupped his fists and said to Xu Yi: "Zhang Xiao, the special envoy of the Li Dynasty, has met the leader!" It sounds awkward.

There was no smile on Xu Yi's face, but after looking Zhang Xiao up and down for a few times, he asked in a cold voice: "Master Zhang, excuse me, when our two armies are fighting, I don't know why Master Zhang came to my place suddenly What's the matter? Could it be that you came to spy on our army's situation?"

Zhang Xiao saw that the leader of the Skeleton Army was not polite at all, and when he looked up again, he suddenly saw the map of the Annan Coast hanging high behind him, he couldn't help but feel tense, thinking to himself that he came here in time this time, It seems that these skeleton troops are really planning to stay here forever, or even their map of Annan is hung here. If this is the case, wouldn't their Annan Kingdom never have peace?And for the other party to have such a detailed map of Annan, it seems that they have already done enough work, and this is going to be against them for a long time.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiao didn't care about the issue of losing face, and hurriedly bowed again and said: "My lord, please don't misunderstand, this time Zhang came here because of my king's order, and came here specially to fight with your army." Negotiating peace, there is absolutely no intention of coming to spy on your army's military situation!"

Xu Yi's face remained the same, and he continued to ask: "Negotiate peace? I'm surprised, we are at war now, and you, Li Chao, claim to capture us in one go, destroying the skin and tearing the bones apart. Can you solve the hatred in your hearts? Why did the good-natured people suddenly die down and come to discuss peace with us? Isn’t this a big joke?”

Zhang Xiao was immediately blushed by the shameful sophistication, and explained embarrassingly: "Master, don't be joking, I think we had no grudges or enmities, but now we are in such a situation, there must be some misunderstandings, I am a generation My lord, I have never liked to be good at swordsmanship, and the Han people have said since ancient times that heaven has the virtue of being good at life, and my king does not want to have any enmity with your army, so I have been sent here to discuss with your army how to fight with your army. The army cleared up the misunderstanding, and since then the two sides have become friendly! Therefore, my king sent me here to find out the cause of the incident. If possible, we should clear up the misunderstanding!"

After Xu Yi heard what he said, he sneered and said: "God has the virtue of loving life? It seems that Mr. Zhang has read a lot of books about Han people! Did Mr. Zhang forget that there is also the following sentence, which also destroys life?" Is it only evil? Oh! I forgot! It turns out that Annan used to be called Jiaozhi, and it was originally the land of our Han people. It’s not surprising that you know this! Hehe! To us, you Annan people are just a bunch of traitors!" Xu Yi's words immediately made the following generals of the Fubo Army burst into laughter.

Xu Yi's words made this Zhang Xiao feel even more embarrassed. As a scholar, he certainly knew Annan's previous history. What the leader of the skeleton army said was not wrong. You can only be regarded as a traitor!After all, it was only more than a hundred years since the Li Dynasty established the country, Zhang Xiao said a little angrily: "My lord, what you said is wrong, I think you Song people have always regarded themselves as the king of heaven, but you have forgotten that I have long since established the country in Annan. It is under the jurisdiction of the people of the Song Dynasty, so why do you talk about traitors? I think we should stop entangled in this matter! But I don’t know what is the reason for your army’s brazen invasion of our court this time?” He suddenly remembered his trip Therefore, he hurriedly changed the subject and changed the topic to the real business.

Xu Yi no longer entangled with him on this issue, so he said angrily: "Since you asked about this matter, I might as well tell you again! Originally, we are in the Song Dynasty and have nothing to do with you. But you Annan people are so shameless, you actually coveted the property of our cargo ship, dared to impolitely detain our cargo ship passing by your big seaport, kill my brother, arrest my brother, and bully my Fubo army like this, how can we let you bully us? ?So you, Li Chao, should be fully responsible for this matter. The reason why we treat you like this is entirely your own fault!"

Xu Yi scolded so much, Zhang Xiao finally understood how his country offended the Fubo army. It turned out that the officials in Dazhan Haikou had nothing to do, and they actually provoked such a group of murderous people who could not be provoked. The gang of officials who occupied Haikou had already scolded the gang of officials, wishing to pull these things out immediately and flog the corpses to relieve their anger. They were greedy for a small gain, and they actually caused such a big loss to An Nanguo. It's really another death I can't let go of my hatred a thousand times!But he still hurriedly said: "So that's it! It seems that this matter is indeed our fault first, but these officials of Dazhan Haikou have been killed by your army at Dazhan Haikou at that time, and your army has already occupied our country. Haikou was burned, and it’s time to calm down, but the precious army continued to attack our coastal prefectures and counties, and burned Huazhou City, isn’t it too much?”

Hearing his question, Xu Yi immediately said: "Master Zhang's words are wrong. I'm afraid you have forgotten our identities. We are not good people. Since the establishment of the Fubo Army, we have followed the principle of retribution. You are not benevolent." We are unrighteous! It is not our fault!"

Only then did Zhang Xiao remember the identity of the other party. The other party was a pirate, and he absolutely couldn't use common sense to judge their way of doing things, so he could only suppress his anger, and continued to say with a smile: "That's that! But So far, your army has already caused a lot of damage to our country, and your army has also taken away a lot of my property and even my people. Today, you have killed many generals of our army, so it's time to calm down. As a result, many members of your army gave their lives. If the two of us continue to fight like this, I am afraid that your soldiers will suffer greater losses. For the sake of your soldiers, why don't you retreat back to your army's garrison? How about the two sides strike out?"

Xu Yi really laughed, not only he laughed, but also the generals below, Xu Yi laughed loudly: "Master Zhang is really a ridiculous person! Now you are beaten by us What did you do earlier? You mobilized such a navy and came to fight with us. After you were defeated, you remembered to stop and fix it. Oh my God! Is there such a cheap thing down there? Could it be that our brothers who died in this battle died in vain, and our wounded brethren were injured in vain?"

Zhang Xiaoxin is aggrieved!I thought to myself that you, the pirate leader, really know how to settle accounts, your brother has casualties, don't we?Not to mention the previous ones, this time alone we have lost tens of thousands of elite naval forces. The lives of your soldiers are your lives, so is the life of our Annan soldiers your life?Can this account be calculated like this?But he didn't dare to refute what Xu Yi said, so he hurriedly said: "I think there is still a misunderstanding here. We really didn't know why your army attacked us before, so we sent troops to attack your army. Now we We have already figured out the cause of the matter, and for us Li Chao, we are unwilling to continue to let the soldiers of both sides bleed in vain! So in Zhang’s view, the two sides should shake hands and make peace! There is no need to continue to go to war, so that the situation will develop Let's go down! I don't know what the boss thinks?"

Xu Yi looked at Master Zhang with a sneer, and said, "Does Master Zhang think that things can really be settled in this way? Then Master Zhang might as well ask me, the generals, whether they agree or not! Humph!"

"I don't agree! Your Li Chao's lord thinks beautifully. If you can't beat us, you want to let it go. If you can beat us, we will have become lonely ghosts in this sea! Now you want us to bury you!" The Polish army strikes and retreats, don’t even think about it, I’m going to kill you today, if I don’t beat you to the knees, I’ll die at your Annan’s place!” Zheng Guang was the first to quit, swearing road.

Then the other generals also began to curse angrily, scolding Zhang Xiao until his face was blue and purple, finally waited until these generals of the Fubo Army scolded enough, and then said with red faces: "That's not true, That's wrong! The reason why my king sent Zhang to come here is because he really didn't want the soldiers on both sides to continue to bleed and die in vain. That's why I came here and hoped that both sides would stop fighting. Are you really afraid that you will fail?"

"Well said! Well said!" After Xu Yi raised his hand to stop the following brothers who were about to scold, he clapped his hands and said, "It turns out that the Lord Li Chao is really a bodhisattva! Then I might as well tell you today." , I, Xu, do not have the kindness of your king. We are not afraid of bleeding. We are born to lick blood from the knife edge, and we eat this bowl of rice with our heads off. Since you are not afraid of us, then you go back now and let your king immediately Mobilize your soldiers, horses and ships, and we will continue to fight. As long as you have the ability to wipe us out here, we will accept our fate. If you want us to retreat like this, I advise you to stop talking. I will not kill you today. It is also for the sake of the face of the two countries that the war will not be cut, and I will save your life. If you want to rely on your three-inch tongue to lobby us to withdraw our troops, you should save your energy! You can now Let’s go, I’m not going to make things difficult for you, but please go back and tell your country lord, from now on, our Fubo army has really been at war with you Annan people, when will you wipe us out, and when will this matter end, if you don’t If you have this ability, just wait for us to find your bad luck! Someone, drive him out for me!"

Cui Yan came out immediately with a few guards, and wanted to drive Zhang Xiao out of the big tent. Zhang Xiao was really impatient, so he quickly raised his hand and shouted: "Wait! Do it!"

Xu Yi raised his hand to stop Cui Yan and the others, and said with a cold face: "If you have anything to say, hurry up, I don't have time to grind your teeth here!"

Zhang Xiao is such a coward, so he could only fold his fists and bow his head and said: "In this case, then Zhang also wants to hear what you want from the big leader before you are willing to leave our Annan Coast, so let's stop here? The big leader might as well make a condition, There is always a negotiation in everything, isn't it?"

Only then did Xu Yi secretly laugh, and what he had been waiting for for a long time was his words. Now it seems that the Annan people really have no choice, otherwise, they wouldn't come to him so eagerly to discuss this matter!So he waved his hand to make Cui Yan and the others retreat, nodded slightly to Zhang Xiao and said: "It seems that after talking for a long time, Mr. Zhang's words are really on the point. As two opposing sides, you should have the loser." Consciousness, in this world, the strong have always had the final say, so why did you go through such a big circle just now? You say that now, and I can understand what you mean by saying that you are willing to give us compensation in exchange for Shall we retreat?"

These words were too blunt, they didn't give An Nanguo any sympathy at all, Zhang Xiao was almost ashamed to find a crack in the ground and sneak in, wishing to slap himself a few big mouths. Lesson yourself, why did you ask for such an errand for nothing, and came here to be insulted by a group of foreign pirates, but the matter has come to this point, and he can no longer fight for face, who made them really have nothing to do now Dealing with this skeleton army fleet, so he gritted his teeth and nodded and said: "Since the big boss said so, then take it as what he meant!"

Only then did Xu Yi smile, and said, "Since this is the case, then I really need to seriously consider your country's opinion, come here! Get a chair for Mr. Zhang, and let's sit down and talk!"

A personal guard brought a chair to Zhang Xiao and placed it in front of the Shuai case. Zhang Xiao's legs are really weak when he is standing now, not because of tiredness, but because of being so angry that his legs are trembling. After the chair was brought over, he gritted his teeth and said thanks, then sat down.

Xu Yi looked at Mr. Zhang, Annan's special envoy who was livid with anger, and touched his chin and said to himself: "This matter is really hard to say! This time, our Fubo army came to rescue our Brother, it cost a lot of money. We mobilized so many brothers, ships, and supplies. The consumption is not a small amount. Moreover, you robbed several ships of our goods at the beginning, but we worked hard for a year in Nanyang. The precious things you bought, apart from this, you also killed hundreds of our sailor brothers. These brothers can’t die in vain, and you arrested so many of our brothers, tortured them, and made so many of our brothers suffer. There are so many crimes, and this crime cannot be taken in vain. This time you sent a large army to attack us, causing us heavy losses, causing more than [-] casualties to our brothers, and damage to dozens of ships. This account It's really hard to calculate! How can I say it? I really have a headache!"

At this time, Xu Yi immediately changed from the role of a general to the appearance of a profiteer. He was like a hooligan who was trying to figure out how to blackmail others. Muttering about the various expenditures and losses of the Fubo Army, that Zhang Xiao was almost fainted from anger. Is there such a thing in the world? The leader of the Skeleton Army looks like a rascal in the market, and there is no commander there. look!

The generals of the Fubo Army were almost bursting out laughing at Xu Yi's honor, but seeing that there was an Annan special envoy here, they couldn't laugh like this, so they had to hold back their laughter desperately , the muscles on his face trembled wildly, and his expression was extremely painful. In the end, Lin Xiong was the first one who couldn't stand the torture, so he bowed and confessed: "Suddenly I feel a little uncomfortable in my lowly position. Please allow the general to retire temporarily!"

Of course Xu Yi knew what Lin Xiong wanted to do, so he waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, did you get sick from eating at noon? This Annan's food is really a problem, we have to be more careful when we eat in the future!"

Lin Xiong immediately confessed his guilt, then turned around and backed out. As soon as he got out of the big tent, he ran wildly into the distance, until he ran to a place where his voice could not be heard inside the big tent, and then he held his stomach and laughed wildly, and threw the A group of soldiers passing by was taken aback, but before he finished laughing, he saw Yang Zaixing and others running out, and they laughed wildly as soon as they met.

"How can our lord be like this? Why didn't I find out that the lord is so funny before? When the lord acts strangely, I think he's even more of a gangster than a street gangster! Haha! I guess the special envoy of the Annan Li Dynasty is now He must be going crazy with anger! Haha!" Yang Zaixing said while holding his aching belly from laughing...

(Today my cousin is getting married, and I’m going to have a wedding at noon, and I’m probably going to get down in the afternoon, and I’ll continue to update tomorrow, so I don’t have to wait today! But I still updated [-] words today, which is quite a lot! I have a monthly pass in my hand Brothers continue to help push it up!)
