After understanding the thoughts of animals, I became more successful in escaping famine!

Seeing that the barbarian leader was confused, Sheng Chu continued to explain.

“There is no threat in your letter, only abuse, so Yun Che will not obediently send the antidote over. Now, I have another plan, I wonder what the leader thinks.”

"If you have anything to say, say it now! Don't dilly-dally!"

“From ancient times to the present, we have fought countless battles with the people of the Central Plains, big and small. Although we have won fewer battles than we have lost, the Central Plains people will not devour our homeland in the end. From this point, it can be seen that Yun Che also only wants us to withdraw our troops. We might as well take advantage of this, call them out, and negotiate.”

After hearing this, the barbarian leader's eyes lit up.

“That’s a good idea. We can send people to ambush there in advance, and when Yun Che arrives, we will catch him all in one fell swoop!”

After saying this, the barbarian leader laughed loudly towards the sky, as if he had already seen the victory of the war.

Sheng Chu interrupted him at this time: "Chief, the people of the Central Plains are cunning. They will definitely send people to search and wait in advance, and will not give us the opportunity to ambush at the meeting place."

The smile on the barbarian leader's face faded: "That's true."

"The main purpose of our trip is to get the antidote. Those poisoned and unconscious soldiers cannot wait any longer."

"Someone, come and draft a letter!"

This time, the barbarian leader was very smart and did not act on his own, but asked Sheng Chu to write the letter.

After reading the letter, Yun Che and Song Wanning were both suspicious.

"This letter is not written by the same person as the last one, right?" Song Wanning read it over and over again.

"It certainly doesn't look like it."

"What are you going to do this time?"

Yun Che looked up at the tent: “Since the war started, although we have won a lot, we have also suffered a lot of losses. It is not good for both of us to prolong the battle line. If the barbarians are really willing to negotiate, I think we can take this opportunity to end the war.”

Gu Yong didn't think so: "General, the barbarians have been trying every possible way to attack us recently, and they don't seem to be stopping at all. I think this letter must be their conspiracy. They want to launch another attack in the name of He Tan."

Song Wanning nodded: "I think so too. The barbarians' desire to invade will not stop so quickly. The letter said that they would bring the antidote over. Maybe they just wanted to cheat them of the antidote."

"No matter what, the peace talks are a signal that the other side wants to stop the war. It is also an opportunity for us to test their intentions. We must go to the peace talks this time."

Yun Che accepted the request for peace talks from the barbarians, and then the two sides began to discuss the location of the talks.

At first, Yun Che wanted to set the location in Jiangcheng, but the barbarians refused, saying that it was Yun Che’s territory and they would definitely set an ambush.

Song Wanning just found it funny: "Isn't this judging others by one's own standards?"

"General, I think we can set up an ambush and catch them all in one fell swoop, right?"

Yun Che shook his head: "If you are a gentleman, you should not be so cautious. If a man is not trustworthy, he will not be able to stand."

Song Wanning was worried: "What if they set an ambush? If we fall into their trap, won't our entire army be wiped out?"

"Don't worry, I've already found a place for the talks."

"where?"

Yun Che stood up and walked to the side of the battle zone map, pointing at Guo Yunjiang's location.

"On the river?" Song Wanning frowned. Is he going to get on the boat?

Yun Che shook his head: “There is a stone bridge here. The people on both sides of the river have been using it for many years. However, after the barbarians started the war, no one dared to cross the river. We can set up the location for the peace talks here. There are few trees around here, and there are no high mountains, so it is not easy to ambush.”

Song Wanning clapped her hands in amazement: "This is a good place. The river is fast-flowing and it can prevent people from diving underwater."

"I think so too."

Gu Yong was unwilling to give up: "General, are you really not going to set up an ambush there?"

Yun Che glanced at him and said, “If I lose my credibility this time, there will be no chance for peace talks in the future.”

Gu Yong sighed and gave up.

The barbarians also agreed to Yun Che's proposal to negotiate on the bridge, and then the two sides determined the time and each sent people to garrison and investigate.

The night before the peace talks, Sheng Chu was a little excited and couldn't sleep.

He took out all his best works from the bottom of his box. These were all poisons that would kill anyone who touched them, and they were extremely toxic.

It has never been used on the battlefield because it is too expensive to produce, takes too long, and the quantity is small.

He wanted to use these on Song Wanning to see if she could solve it.

In this way, he can compete with Song Wanning to see who is the strongest poison master and the most skilled doctor in the world.

On the day of the negotiation, both parties came up from the opposite sides of the bridge. Yun Che had very strong eyesight and he noticed a flash of silver light passing through his eyes. He looked over there and found an arrow hidden in the bushes on the other side of the river.

I think it was a mechanism set up by the barbarians, and someone was operating the rope from a distance to activate the mechanism.

Two rows of chairs were prepared on the bridge, and people from both sides sat down facing each other.

Yun Che sneered and took the lead in attacking: "I thought the leader came to negotiate with sincerity, but I didn't expect that he would do such a secret ambush. If you don't want to negotiate, then let's give up this time."

The barbarian leader was shocked and wondered how Yun Che discovered it.

But the antidote was not in his hands yet, and he didn't want to lose this opportunity, so he waved to his men behind him.

After a while, several soldiers came over from the bushes and took down all the traps hidden there.

Lei Ting was very angry and wanted to rush over to fight and argue, but was stopped by Gu Yong.

Sheng Chu had seen Lei Ting and Gu Yong before. Song Wanning was the only unfamiliar face on the scene. He couldn't help but say, "This person must be the master who poisoned the food."

Song Wanning curled the corners of her mouth as if to admit it, and said nothing.

"Can I ask what poisons you used?"

Song Wanning glanced at Yun Che, and Yun Che nodded.

She then opened her mouth and named more than twenty kinds of poisonous medicinal herbs, some of which Sheng Chu had never heard of.

After hearing this, he showed some excitement in his eyes: "I didn't expect that you could blend these herbs together perfectly. No, there is no blending. The medicinal properties of many herbs conflict with each other."

He became more and more excited as he spoke: "Yes, it is because of the conflicting properties of the drugs that the soldiers fell into a coma. This is not poison, this is..."

Sheng Chu didn't know how to define this thing for a moment.

Song Wanning didn't intend to discuss these things with him. What she wanted to see was whether the war could be ended through this peace talk.

The barbarian leader also felt that Sheng Chu seemed a little out of control, so he had someone pull him back.

"General Yun, where is the antidote I need?"

Song Wanning took out a medicine bottle from her bosom: "Pour the medicine in this bottle into two large vats, dilute it with water, and feed it to the unconscious person."
