Since it was proposed by the Western Region Allied Forces, Li Xiang will not be too proactive and directly stipulate the place and time for them to meet. If you are not willing, then it will be treated as if it has never been proposed.

Many people are reluctant to the time and place given by Li Xiang. This is within the territory of Gaochang. If it were in the past, they would indeed be willing to negotiate. But the problem is that now Gaochang has been occupied by Datang. On the surface, It seems that Gaochang is an independent country, but do they actually have any rights?

According to the information obtained by the Western Region Allied Forces, the King of Gaochang only had the guards in the palace. If he wanted to mobilize troops from other places, he must obtain the approval of Tang officials. If the Tang officials did not approve, he wanted to It was impossible to go out for a walk outside the city.

In this case, isn't it a joke to ask us to go to Gaochang for negotiations? If the talks break down, who can escape?

However, General Kang Ying was determined to negotiate. Even though Li Xiang's demands were excessive, he still took his men and set off. Khan Xue Yantuo naturally wanted the negotiations to break down. This guy also said a lot of bad things. But in the end General Kang Ying set off.

"They can agree to such a request. It seems that what we have done in the past has left a deep impression on them. It seems that we are like warmongers who will go to war if we disagree."

Niu Jinda looked at the negotiating team coming from a distance. The number of people was not very large. They came exactly as we requested. There were only three hundred guards at most.

"General Niu's words are wrong. This is due to the power of the Tang Dynasty..."

Because it involves diplomatic negotiations, Mr. Zhao came over from the Royal City. Some things have to be answered by Mr. Zhao. Although Li Xiang is the commander-in-chief here, Li Xiang doesn’t know as much as Zhao about many diplomatic matters. My Lord, it is also to silence many people. If Lord Zhao does not come to participate, then I don’t know how many rumors will come out in Chang’an City.

"You are right, old man. What you said means the same thing as what I said, but you can say it in classical Chinese. What I say here is in vernacular. My soldiers can't even read. No, if you tell them what you said, many people will probably never understand it in their lifetime."

Niu Jinda laughed and said, Mr. Zhao also smiled and shook his head beside him. For civil servants like Mr. Zhao, they are indeed not suitable to deal with people like Niu Jinda.

Just when the negotiators of the Western Turks were still 500 meters away from the border, dozens of cavalry from the Tang army rushed out. According to Li Xiang's request, these guards were to set up camp here, and they could only be led by General Kang Ying. Twenty guards went in.

This project was added temporarily, purely to test the other party. If the other party is not satisfied, it means that they are determined to fight with us, but if the other party succumbs, it means that they do not have this determination. You can also make concessions without a bottom line for the sake of negotiation.

Niu Jinda raised his heart in his throat. He was not like Li Xiang, so he didn't know what the other person was thinking. Li Xiang had already seen through the other person's thoughts, and now he was just trying to verify them.

"It seems like they are scolding each other. I said just now that this temporary project we added is too harsh. They only asked them to bring twenty people over. Even if I were to negotiate, I would immediately turn around and leave."

Niu Jinda said complainingly that when the three of them were discussing just now, Li Xiang proposed this proposal, and Niu Jinda objected to it, but unfortunately both Li Xiang and Mr. Zhao supported it, and Niu Jinda could only listen from the side.

"General Niu, this is wrong. You turned around and left because the power of the Tang Dynasty is here. Do you think they also have such ability? They appeared here today, and they took the initiative to ask to appear here. This is why It can already explain everything, we are just making sure more now.”

Mr. Zhao touched his beard and said, if the other party came with many people, then Mr. Zhao would not dare to draw this conclusion, but the other party came with about 300 people. It was obvious that they were not here to fight, even if these 300 people came We are all reincarnations of gods, so I’m afraid there’s nothing we can do.

In diplomatic situations, as long as you show your cowardice once, you will lose the initiative. Although our demands are excessive, Mr. Zhao and Li Xiang are both more than 80% sure that General Kang Ying of the Western Region Allied Forces will definitely comply.

Just when the three of them were confused, there was a shouting and cursing sound in the distance. Li Xiang and the others did not understand. This sound should be a language of the Western Regions. Niu Jinda looked at Li Xiang and Li Xiang with some pride, that means you two Is this a miscalculation?

Just when Niu Jinda was about to speak, a cavalry rushed over from the opposite side. Except for the two leaders, there were only twenty cavalry behind them. Li Xiang and Mr. Zhao both laughed. As long as the Western Region Allied Forces choose to negotiate, then They have no confidence to fight, so no matter how we test them, they will listen honestly. If the door to negotiations is closed, they cannot bear this responsibility.

"Does this...do you still have the spirit of a gentleman?"

Niu Jinda looked at the scene in front of him with great difficulty. After all, you are not ordinary people. You are all carrying swords on your waist. How could you be pinched like this?

"The spirit of the gentleman is important, but as Mr. Zhao just said, you have to see clearly who is standing behind you. The most powerful country in the Western Regions is the Western Turks, but the Western Turks were once our defeated generals. Could it be that Will they become bolder after running to the west?”

Li Xiang's words made Mr. Zhao nod. He obviously agreed with what Li Xiang said. When the Turks were still one, they were no longer our opponents in the Tang Dynasty. When they came to the Northwest, where the environment was even worse, could it be that the Turks Have the Turks become more capable? This is not logical.

Seeing that they were already in front of them, Li Xiang and the other three had no time to chat here. After everyone tidied up a little, they had to go down to meet General Kang Ying of the Western Turks to see what they wanted to say.

General Kang Ying was indeed angry, but when he thought about the purpose of his coming, he had to suppress all his anger. If he negotiated with emotions, it would be a small thing to embarrass himself, and it would be a big thing to expose the entire Western Region to war. The big thing now is Tang is like a tiger. Just because you don't pick on him doesn't mean he won't pick on you.
