The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

Chapter 304: Cut off a thousand miles of land and pay 3000 million yuan in compensation
The conflict between the Byzantine Empire and the Tang Dynasty lasted for three years, but there were also businessmen who went to the Byzantine Empire to do business and have contacts with the nobles.

After all, wars are wars, and porcelain and silk silks from the Tang Dynasty are still very popular among the nobles of the Byzantine Empire.

Therefore, some Byzantine nobles even learned the Central Plains language, and Mars was one of them, although his speech was still a bit jerky.

Li Chengdao was a little surprised, then returned to normal and said calmly: "Pingshen."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Mars breathed a sigh of relief, and then stood up together with several envoys who followed.

He raised his head and glanced at Li Chengdao, feeling very surprised.

He never expected that the emperor of this huge eastern power would be so young.

But he quickly looked away because he understood that it was very rude to look directly at him like this.

"Your Byzantine Empire and our country, the Tang Dynasty, are currently at war. Your emperor sent you here. Why?"

Looking at Mars kneeling in the hall, Li Chengdao said calmly.

After hearing Li Chengdao's words, Mars frowned slightly and said: "Dear Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, our Byzantine Empire has no intention of starting a war with your country. It is really because your country invaded our territory that our empire had to resist. …”

It was indeed the Tang Expeditionary Force that first led troops to invade the territory of the Byzantine Empire and then occupied it, which then led to friction between the two sides and finally a war.

But before he finished speaking, Yue Fei said calmly: "No matter who invades first, if your country still wants to fight, I, the Tang Dynasty, will accompany you."

The words reveal strong confidence and confidence.

Considering Yue Fei's identity and the background of Datang, there is absolutely no problem with this sentence.

You are weaker than me, so what can you do if I invade you? !

No matter who is right or wrong, the big fist is the last word!
The rest of Mars' words were directly blocked by Yue Fei's words. He glared at Yue Fei angrily and said: "Who are you? I am an envoy of the Byzantine Empire, representing the emperor of our empire, and now the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty What qualifications do you have to interrupt this conversation?"

In the Byzantine Empire, the concept of superiority and inferiority was very strong, so he was very angry at Yue Fei's sudden interruption.

Upon hearing this, all the ministers in the palace looked at Mars with strange expressions, and even some military attachés couldn't help but laugh softly.

What qualifications does Yue Fei have?What is Yue Fei's identity?
One of the pillars of the Tang Dynasty!The four marshals are as famous as Li Jing, Li Ji, and Han Xin!Your Majesty's most trusted general!
"This is General Yue Fei. He is the military commander in charge of the Tang Expeditionary Force and all wars in your empire, and the Grand Marshal of the Tang Navy."

Li Chengdao said with a chuckle.

When Mars heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, and he looked at Yue Fei with a hint of shock.

This is the general who commanded the Tang army to fight against their empire for three years, causing them to lose tens of millions of people and the entire coastal territory at a very small cost!

Such a general who leads an army probably has an extremely high status in the Tang Dynasty, and he just reprimanded him!

"Hug, sorry, I was reckless..."

Mars immediately bowed his head and apologized, lowering his posture.

Yue Fei looked at him indifferently and said nothing.

A trace of cold sweat broke out on Mars' forehead. Fortunately, Li Chengdao spoke again at this time: "What General Yue just said is right. His attitude represents my attitude."

"If you, the Byzantine Empire, want to negotiate peace, you must first agree to my conditions."

After hearing this, Mars felt as if he had been granted amnesty.The two parties had to negotiate conditions for peace, not to mention the peace they proposed on their own initiative. It was understandable that Datang had conditions, so he said: "Your Majesty, please speak."

Li Chengdao said calmly: "First, cede the land a thousand miles inward from the coast to become our Tang Dynasty territory. The people and materials inside are not allowed to be taken away."

"Second, be my vassal to the Tang Dynasty and pay tribute every year."

"Third, compensate me for the various materials I have consumed since the three-year campaign in the Tang Dynasty, totaling 3000 million taels of silver!"

"By agreeing to these conditions, I will agree to negotiate peace with your Byzantine Empire."

The various conditions proposed by Li Chengdao gradually filled Mars's face with shock and disbelief. He was already prepared for Li Chengdao to speak like a lion, but he never expected that Li Chengdao would be so greedy!
"There is no peace negotiation here, this is simply the treatment of a defeated country!!"

The anger in Mars's heart could not be greater.

To cede territory and pay compensation, and to bow down and surrender, what is this if not the treatment of a defeated country? !

Even though he wanted to point at Li Chengdao's nose and yell, he could only hold back his boundless anger and said with a red face: "Your Majesty, the conditions you proposed are really too much. I, the Byzantine Empire, just don't want the two countries to be in conflict again. We are caught in the flames of war, so we want to negotiate peace, not because we are afraid of your Tang country!"

There was inevitably a hint of heartfelt anger in his words.

"Oh, then keep fighting and retreat from the court."

Li Chengdao said casually, and then stood up to leave. All the officials in the court also bowed and wanted to retreat.

Li Chengdao's reaction caught Mars off guard. He thought that Li Chengdao would argue with him and then relax his conditions. Who knew that Li Chengdao had no intention of talking to him at all!

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment!"

Holding back his embarrassment, Mars shouted.

However, after Li Chengdao stopped, he looked at him with cold and sharp eyes, and his tone was as sharp as a knife:
"I have no time to compete with you for these petty gains. Either I agree to the conditions and my country, the Tang Dynasty, will stop the war with your country, or I will continue to fight and destroy your entire country!

I am willing to see you just out of courtesy, but it does not mean that you are qualified to negotiate with me! "

After finishing speaking, Li Chengdao chuckled and said, "Is it difficult to destroy Byzantium?"

After that, he waved his sleeves and left with a smile.

None of the ministers in the hall were surprised by Li Chengdao's remarks, and they exited the hall one by one. In the end, only the pale Mars and several Byzantine envoys who did not understand Chinese and seemed at a loss were left.

In the empty hall, Mars slumped on the ground, gradually realizing the reality.

The Tang Dynasty never paid attention to Byzantium from the beginning to the end!

Agree to the conditions, or destroy your country directly!
This is Li Chengdao's attitude!

This is also the attitude of all officials and even soldiers in the Tang Dynasty!

This is the self-confidence that belongs to the people of the Tang Dynasty!
The Tang Dynasty was the most powerful country!

The weak are not qualified to negotiate.

Mars felt nothing but coldness in his heart.
