Chapter 114 Negotiations
"This is really a good place." Wang Youyuan sat on the horse, looked around and sighed.

Wang Youyuan personally led the escort of this small group of cavalry as peace envoys. They walked nearly a hundred miles along the river to arrive here. This place has penetrated into the densely populated area of ​​the red-haired man tribes. Although they still live in shacks and wooden houses like those tribes by the sea. , but its living conditions have improved a lot, and the clothes on the residents are cleaner.

Although most of the red-haired barbarians are naked from the upper body, at least there is some cover for the lower body, and there are fields and crops around the living tribes, although those crops are not very good.

From a distance, you can recognize barley and other unfamiliar staple foods, vegetables, etc. In addition to planting, there are some common livestock, such as sheep, cattle, and a small number of horses, etc., which may be scattered in gathering areas inside, or chained to a wooden stake in a house.

Tao Dayuan rode a horse around the open space, suddenly pointed to the distant forest and said, "Look, there are pigs in the forest."

"They are free-ranging pigs. These red-haired barbarians are not all savages."

"It's just that the fields are not well-organized and messy." Wang Youyuan summed it up. After all, he is an expert in farming, and he looks down on this kind of farming that wastes land resources.

"Fuck!" Suddenly Wang Youyuan cursed secretly, because he saw the scene he least wanted to see. Those red-haired men occupied the only hillside in the vicinity, and they could be seen lined up at the edge of the woodland. , dark and dense, the number is too much.

"It's hard to fight. They don't go out of the woods. It's not easy for us cavalry to go in." Wang Youyuan spat, and scanned the surrounding environment back and forth. The dangers were all occupied by the red-haired man, and they were not as weak and deceitful as before. On the contrary, these red-haired man's eyes were full of murderous intent, and they were also very cautious.

Tao Dayuan trembled a little: "Brother Wang, how are you doing? Why aren't these red-haired men the same as before?"

It was very easy to fight the small red-haired man before. They had no weapons and no tactics. They just rushed forward foolishly. After a few people died, they were frightened and surrendered on their knees. It's not as organized and dynamic as it is now.

"There is a leader in charge, and we will play by ear later."

With a whistle, the entire cavalry team stopped, Wang Youyuan said to Tao Dayuan: "I will send two people to accompany you, don't be afraid, we can't go any further, otherwise it will be easy to get in, but difficult to get out .”

Hearing this, Tao Dayuan had no choice but to move forward even though he was afraid, while Wang Youyuan led the remaining 20 cavalry into two teams and circled around to occupy a favorable battlefield and prevent accidents.

Tao Dayuan rode a horse towards the red-haired man team in the distance. Seeing that the red-haired man was getting closer and closer, Tao Dayuan let go of his fear completely. He recalled in his heart what Liu Ze had taught in class. Negotiation skills, and also reviewing some simple language of Hongmaoman, to ensure that we can communicate smoothly when we meet later, but it doesn't matter even if Hongmaoman can't speak well, anyway, he brought a translator.

There are also lonely wooden houses in this grassland, covered with thatch, for unknown purpose, and there are low stone walls around to separate the wooden house buildings from the outside world.

Suddenly, two shirtless red-haired strong men stopped Tao Dayuan's way with spears in their hands. They spoke short words and looked a little fierce on their faces, but Tao Dayuan couldn't understand these words at all, so he had to send a follower His businessman Hongmaoman came to talk to him.

The merchant red-haired man also responded with short words, but the two red-haired men spoke more and more fiercely, and their spears were getting closer and closer. The two cavalry who followed Tao Dayuan hurried forward a few steps and used their horses. Gun confronted them.

"What do they say?" asked one of the horsemen.

"I don't understand either, so be careful." Tao Dayuan was also wondering, didn't he come here for peace talks? Why did he get so anxious all of a sudden?He asked the businessman with red hair, "What did they say?"

"Hit, hit." The red-haired businessman clenched his palms with one hand and made a "crack" sound as they collided.

Just when these few people were wondering, a group of hundreds of people in full armor came over the stone wall in a scattered formation. These people held shields, spears and stone axes and roared like wild beasts, threatening the crowd. Several people.

Seeing them getting closer, the red-haired businessman shouted, "Don't run, don't run."

He didn't care about the others, and immediately knelt down to show his submission. The first ones were Alva and Scarface. They were considered the elders and leaders of the red-haired barbarians. When there was still a distance of 30 meters, the two waved their hands to the flailing warriors behind them, stopped the others in their footsteps, and then slowly walked up to Tao Dayuan and the others, and began to talk.

The red-haired businessman quickly stood up and acted as an interpreter. Alva asked, "White people, why are you here?"

"We came here on behalf of goodwill." Tao Dayuan replied firmly. He looked at Alva with sincere eyes, trying to let the other party understand that the People's Army did not have bad intentions.

"Then why attack our village?"

"It's not an attack. We give them food and property and let them work for us."

"You must leave, or we will kill you."

Seeing the threat and hatred in the other party's eyes, Tao Dayuan couldn't help feeling a little chilly. He clenched his fists and sighed. It seems that there is no way to continue the peace talks today.

"We can stay there and not go anywhere, and we won't attack you again."

Avar laughed when he heard this. These white people didn't look completely white, their skin was yellow and dark, but in comparison, they were fairer than the locals.

Moreover, people can't speak well, which is really incomprehensible. The number of warriors he leads these tribes far exceeds these white people. He doesn't believe that these white people will not be afraid.

And he is also worried about one thing, that is, it is very likely that more and more white people will come from the other side of the sea. Alva has no idea about the specific number of these white people and whether they still have reinforcements.

"Get ready to fight!" After Scarface and Avar finished talking, they turned back to the village and ignored these people.

The red-haired businessman was trembling all over. He had the intention to follow these people away, but from the disgusted eyes of these fellow clansmen, it was not difficult to find that there was no good fruit to follow, so he decisively pointed the way back, and said to Tao Dayuan: " go, go."

Wang Youyuan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Tao Dayuan and the others returned to the safe zone. After hearing what happened, he patted his horse and went back to Liu Ze's camp together.

"It seems inevitable." Wang Youyuan breathed a sigh of relief. Once he made a decision, he stopped thinking about other things and just prepared to fight.
