Chapter 1428: Negotiating Like This

Jiang Yuwang was not so naive as to think that Huaxia would truly let them gain such a great advantage so easily, so after a smile, he asked, "Then what are your Huaxia's conditions?"

The Second Battalion Commander revealed a harmless smile: "It's very simple, just give us the territory here, and we won't fight you again this year. You can go back and give Shennong an explanation; no one needs to suffer casualties, isn't that great?"

Jiang Ke said directly and clearly: "Oh, is it because after your last war with Jiang Cheng and the others, your strength is already failing? You just want to scare us, but in reality, you can't beat us either, so you just say it like this. Well, what if we just attack you with all our might, what could you do then?"

Jiang Cheng waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, their numbers haven't decreased at all, their strength hasn't diminished, you must not attack, you really can't beat them, you will die."

Jiang Yuwang and Jiang Ke, who had originally prepared to discuss a mutually beneficial method with Huaxia, now felt from the Second Battalion Commander's words that this Huaxia's strength was already failing and they were just bluffing, so they began to put away their previous thoughts and gradually became a bit bolder; if not for the situation forcing them, who would be willing to leave their own tribe to make a living outside?

Moreover, looking at the current situation, perhaps this generation's Shennong would not be able to hold on for many years before being toppled. These people from the central tribes were the least willing to see the Shennong Clan destroyed, but they had not yet been completely pushed to the edge; if pushed too hard, then replacing Shennong was something they, united, could still manage to do.

The Second Battalion Commander was not at all flustered by being questioned like this: "We are doing this, in fact, to give you a chance, otherwise we wouldn't have brought Jiang Cheng along."

Jiang Ke was unimpressed: "Listen to Jiang Cheng's words now, he is completely speaking on your behalf, it's too fake, too fake, this makes us unable to believe it."

Jiang Cheng was very angry but helpless; he really wanted to slap his two brothers, he was their brother after all, could he really be lying to them?

"Let me talk about the reason why we in Huaxia are willing to do this; it is mainly because the season is not very good now, and we have been out for a long time this year. The territory we have conquered is already large enough, and we are almost about to attack Changyang Mountain, right?"

"The Soldiers we brought this year are not many, but they are completely enough to fight you. And it is also very simple; after all, we could even fight when three tribes, including the women, were sent out. You are only two tribes, will you let the women fight? We currently have nearly ten thousand Soldiers alone, we don't need to worry about anything, we just fight. What do you have to fight us with?"

"We are also giving you a chance, so that when you go back, you can also deceive Shennong, making him think we are not that powerful, right?"

"The most powerful part of your entire Shennong Clan is the tribes led by Xingtian, right? If Shennong thinks that relying on you alone is enough to defeat us, then he won't send Xingtian next year."

"When next year comes, we will gather all our Soldiers, launch a fierce attack, storm Changyang Mountain, and take down Shennong; how appropriate that would be."

"When the time comes, if you surrender, we can accept it, we won't treat you badly. How about it, do you want to make this choice?"

Jiang Ke did not believe it and was also a bit disdainful: "Why do you think that without the Xingtian Tribe, you can break all our tribes and go straight up to Changyang Mountain? Isn't that too bold? Do you think we are much worse than Xingtian?"

"Otherwise?" the Second Battalion Commander retorted: "In our ranks, there is now a Jiang Cheng, and there is also a Tribal Chief who was defeated by Xingtian. What they say can't be false, right?"

"Xingtian is the most powerful in your Shennong Clan now, right? If it were the tribes led by Xingtian here, then our Soldiers here would really have to consider it carefully; we might even leave."

"But for just your two tribes, would we be afraid?"

"Last year we defeated Jiang Ming, Jiang Cheng, and the Jiang Tribe, and this year we added the Jiebing Tribe; we defeated them all easily. Now, with just your two tribes, what is there to be afraid of?"

Jiang Yuwang was more steady; he stopped Jiang Ke and said slowly: "I do believe some of what you say, but can you really make the decisions? After all, this is a big matter. I have to deceive Shennong, and you are only doing this for this bit of territory? Once you leave, won't this territory be ours again? Why do this?"

The Second Battalion Commander did not hide anything: "Hahahaha, because we have an agreement with the Xuanyuan Tribe. After these territories are occupied, they will all belong to the Xuanyuan Tribe, but we will take away the Xuanyuan Tribe's territory that is close to Huaxia."

"Therefore, how to hold these territories is the Xuanyuan Tribe's business, not Huaxia's."

Now, except for the Second Battalion Commander, the others all widened their eyes, thinking they had misheard. Aren't you allies? Aren't you partners? How can you start calculating against each other so blatantly?

The Leader of the Xuanyuan Tribe was also stunned by what was said; was this real or fake? Should he follow his words or refute him? What if he refuted him and interfered with his plans?

Jiang Ke did not give him time to think and asked directly: "Hey! He said it like that, are you really at ease being allies with such a person? If he does this, is your Tribal Chief really willing?"

The Leader of the Xuanyuan Tribe hesitated for a few seconds: "Willing... I suppose, after all, we have always been like this."

Once these words were out, the Second Battalion Commander almost couldn't help but laugh; he could only try his best to hold it in. But this answer left the other three a bit confused; what, has it already become like this? Tribes that cannot be as close as brothers can also form an alliance?

Jiang Yuwang waved his hand: "How about this, let us, let us discuss it again, let us think about it, is that okay?"

The Second Battalion Commander spread his hands: "Of course, this is a major matter that determines your fate, you really should think about it carefully. However, we cannot wait too long. How about this, at this time tomorrow, we will release a Heavenly Thunder at a position in front of you. After you hear the Heavenly Thunder, it is best to have an envoy appear in our sight immediately."

"Whether you agree or not, send someone over. If you don't send someone over, we will assume you want to go to war with us, and then we will start fighting. Is that okay, do you understand?"

Hearing the Second Battalion Commander's tough tone, Jiang Yuwang felt uneasy again, but he could only agree. However, he also put forward a request: "Let Jiang Cheng stay behind first, we have many things to ask him, tomorrow, we will definitely let him go back."

The Second Battalion Commander looked at Jiang Cheng, gave him a look that said 'you understand', warning him not to talk nonsense, and then readily agreed to Jiang Yuwang's request.
