Chapter 156

The two sides discussed the conditions proposed by Tang Yin, which also kicked off a tug-of-war. Besa's ministers also participated. Read the full text recently.

Regarding the first condition, which was not to station a large army on the border between the two sides, the city-state of Besa agreed, but asked Tang Yin not to station a large army on the border to show fairness. At present, Tang Yin does not have extra troops to garrison the border, so he naturally accepts Besa's conditions.

The second condition was to open all the cities in Besa for trade. When Sanchez agreed, he in turn asked Tang Yin to open the cities of Feng Kingdom to Besa, at least all the cities in the territory under Tang Yin's jurisdiction were open to Besa. Tang Yin was determined not to give in on this point. Opening the city would be tantamount to allowing Bessa people to enter and exit freely. If Bessa's troops were allowed to sneak into the city in large numbers and suddenly launch an attack, it would be troublesome. Besa's side also had the same concerns as Tang Yin. The two sides went back and forth and argued with each other, but no one gave in. In the end, the discussion reached a deadlock, and Tang Yin and Sanchez could only take a step back. Tang Yin promised to open the border city and Hengcheng, while Sanchez promised to open the five cities on the Besa border. On this second point, the two sides finally reached a common understanding.

When the third condition was reached, Tang Yin asked Besa to compensate him, which was five hundred thousand taels of gold and five million taels of silver.

How could Bessa obediently give out so much gold and silver? The two parties bargained over the issue of compensation, and no result was reached in the end.

It was already dark by this time, and both sides were a little tired when they talked about it, feeling that it was even harder than fighting on the battlefield.

Sanchez said: "General Tang, it's too late now. How about we discuss this matter tomorrow?"

Tang Yin nodded and said, "Of course."

Sanchez smiled and said: "There will be a dinner in the palace tonight, and I hope General Tang can stay to attend."

Tang Yin just wanted to refuse, but he was stunned for a moment and then agreed: "Well, it's better to be respectful than to obey."

Sanchez laughed at this.

The dinner party at the Besa Palace was extraordinary. Not only was it large in scale, but the banquet was also sumptuous.

The banquet hall is nearly five meters high, with a length and width of about 20 meters. The huge hall is full of people, all of them are dignitaries and their families from the city-state of Besa. Groups of servants come in and out, shuttling among the crowds. among.

Tang Yin was no stranger to this kind of Western-style banquet, but Shangguan Yuanrang was surprised. Everything he saw felt fresh, especially the glass cups used at the banquet, which were crystal clear and as clear as crystal. Such things were not seen in Feng Country. Arrived.

Everyone in the gathering was a noble from Bessa. Only Tang Yin and Shangguan Yuanrang were two fashionable men. Moreover, they were the only two who were dressed differently from the others. They naturally became the focus of the banquet. Many nobles had already heard of Tang Yin's name. So I took advantage of the banquet to come and see what kind of person he was.

After seeing Tang Yin's appearance clearly, the Besa nobles were even more disappointed. They thought that Tang Yin had three heads and six arms, but it turned out that he was worse than ordinary Besa people. His height of 1.8 meters was only considered among the Besa people. He is of medium height, thin in stature, and has a natural smile and an oriental face. To the Besans, he looks like a half-grown child, and he has nothing to do with any devil holding a sickle. On the other hand, Shangguan Yuanrang next to him had a majestic air, with a big black face that was not angry but powerful, with a cold expression, like a black-faced evil god.

During the banquet, the officials in charge of entertaining Tang Yin from the Besa Royal Court introduced him to the nobles around him from time to time. No matter how smart Tang Yin was, he could not remember so many complicated names.

However, a young girl wearing a white sand skirt next to Sanchez caught Tang Yin's attention. This girl was in her twenties or forties, with blond hair, blue eyes, white skin, and a high nose. From a Western perspective, she can be called beautiful.

The reason why Tang Yin was able to pay attention to her was because she would look towards him from time to time, with confidence and provocation in her eyes, as if the two of them had met before. However, in Tang Yin's mind, he had no impression of this woman.

Shangguan Yuanrang's sharp eyes moved closer to Tang Yin, looked at him, then looked at the girl next to King Besa, and asked, "Do you know her?"

Tang Yin shook his head.

"She seems to be very interested in you!" Shangguan Yuan laughed.

Tang Yin frowned, raised his nose and sniffed. The smell of alcohol hit his nostrils. It was obvious that Shangguan Yuanrang was greedy for drinks. He did not answer, but said in a deep voice: "Drink less."

"Compared with the spirits from Feng Kingdom, Besa's wine is like sugar water." Shangguan Yuanrang said disapprovingly.

"This kind of wine has great stamina and makes people more intoxicated. Don't forget where we are now. If we get drunk, our lives will be at risk!" Tang Yin said quietly. The wine at the banquet was all red wine. It tasted sour, sweet, and astringent. The wine taste was not enough, but it could easily make people drunk without knowing it.

Shangguan Yuanrang looked at Tang Yin in surprise, feeling that his knowledge was wider than his own, as if there was nothing he didn't understand. He felt admiration in his heart, but did not say it out loud. He said nonchalantly: "There is no wine in this world that can make me drunk!" As he spoke, he put down the cup in his hand and did not take another sip.

At this moment, Kenis walked towards Tang Yin surrounded by a group of people.

Just by looking at the arrogant manner in which he walked, Tang Yin had a premonition that trouble was coming, and the nobles around him seemed to have sensed something was wrong, and stopped talking one after another to look at them.

Kenis walked directly to Tang Yin, smiled, and asked falsely: "General Tang, are you satisfied with the food and wine at the banquet?"

Tang Yin remained calm and said calmly: "It's not too good, nor is it too bad."

Kenis was stunned for a moment, and then laughed angrily. He turned slightly sideways, turned around and pointed at a strong man behind him, and said: "This is our fighting king of Besa, who has won consecutive victories in the arena. More than fifty games and never lost.”

Tang Yin raised his eyes to look at the big man on Kenis's finger.

This is a pure black man, more than two meters tall, with a body as strong as a big buffalo, hairless and shiny head, skin so dark that it is almost oily, flat nose, thick lips turned out, and side forehead There is a ring and cross brand unique to Besa slaves. I don’t know which country the Besa people captured slaves from.

Tang Yin looked at the black man. The black man also looked at Tang Yin up and down. He only glanced twice, raised his flat nose, and let out a heavy cold snort.

"Your spiritual force is very strong, I admire it, but I don't know how your fighting skills are? Does General Tang have the courage to fight with him without using your spiritual force?" Kenis raised his chin and glanced at Tang Yin with contempt.

Hearing this, the entire banquet hall fell silent, and people turned to look at Tang Yin, including King Sanchez of Besa and the girl beside him.

Shangguan Yuanrang didn't know what he was talking about, but he had a rough idea. He laughed loudly and said to Tang Yin: "If you want to fight, let me do it!"

Tang Yin waved his hand towards him. Shangguan Yuanrang's cultivation level is high, but if we only talk about fighting skills, he may not be able to defeat such a slave who specializes in gladiatorial combat.

He met Kenis's eyes and smiled: "Why not? I just feel sorry for you."

Kenis was puzzled and blurted out: "What's the pity?"

"It's a pity that we have to lose a very capable slave."

"Haha!" Kenis laughed, not knowing whether he was amused by Tang Yin or because he was angry. He leaned his head close to Tang Yin and said, "If General Tang thinks he is invincible during the fight, you can also use the spirit weapon to save your life. ."

Tang Yin shrugged and said with a smile: "That's not necessary."

"Okay!" Kniss snapped his fingers and shouted to the nobles around him: "Get out of the way, let's see how powerful General Tang is in fighting!" While speaking, he himself was also retreating, passing by the black man's As he approached, he whispered: "Gru, kill him!"

The black slave named Gru stared at Tang Yin, breathing heavily. His arms were as thick as an adult's thigh, with veins bulging as high as a beast about to be released from its cage.

At this time, a Besa guard came forward and handed a spear to Gru. Another guard also handed Tang Yin an identical spear. However, after Tang Yin took it, he threw it away without even looking at it. He turned around and walked to the table, picked up a wine glass between his fingers, and said with a faint smile: "If you want to take his life, the wine glass is enough."

Wow - After hearing what Tang Yin said, the Besa nobles were in an uproar. Although Gru is just a slave, he is extremely famous in Bessa. As Knis said, he has never lost in the fighting in the arena, and countless gladiators have died in his hands. Tsiknis brought him here with the intention of dampening Tang Yin's spirit.

Seeing that Tang Yin was about to fight with Gru holding a spear with a wine glass, King Sanchez also smiled, waiting for a good show, while the girl next to him looked at Tang Yin with her eyes wide open and unblinking.

In the field, watching Tang Yin slowly walking towards him with a wine glass in his hand, Gru suddenly roared and rushed over with a spear, stabbing Tang Yin's chest with the spear in his hand.

"oh--"

The Besa nobles all exclaimed in surprise, and everyone had expressions of horror and excitement on their faces, whether they were men or women, old or young. In their eyes, this is not a duel between two lives at all, but a game that can bring them excitement and fun. This is the nobility of Besa.

Tang Yin sneered in his heart, just because the Besa people didn't treat slaves as human beings, he could take advantage of them in the future.

Thinking in his heart, the others were not idle. When the spear was pierced in front of him, he slipped and stepped behind Gru at an incredible angle and speed.

Gru was indeed outstanding. For such a huge body, his reactions were extremely fast and his movements were extremely agile. He then stabbed Tang Yin in the back with a backhand spear.
