The interlude before the peace talks has ended. Huangfu Song failed to steal the chicken but turned back to eat the rice. Huangfu Song, who had malicious intentions, not only failed to take advantage of the fighting generals to kill Zhang Fei, but also defeated several generals.

Zhang Fei managed to hold back, instead of stabbing people with his spears, he could only hit them with his spears. In this way, the officers and soldiers were unable to hit them, and they were defeated repeatedly.

Li Mengxi refused to lend even a cart to the officers and soldiers. As a last resort, the officers and soldiers had to carry the people back.

Afterwards, Li Mengxi looked at Huangfu Song and asked with a smile, "The battle between generals is over. Do the old generals still want to compete? How about sending one person from each side to compare their shooting skills?"

Huangfu Song frowned and snorted coldly.

Li Mengxi grinned and smiled secretly.

Zhang Fei is famous for his strength, but his shooting skills are not outstanding.

If Huangfu Song were to compete in archery, Zhang Fei might not be able to defeat the generals.

Fortunately, with Zhang Fei's power of winning nine consecutive victories, Huangfu Song did not want to humiliate himself again.

Li Mengxi was still thinking about the "sincerity" of the peace talks between the government and the army, so he did not delay any longer.

He turned around and shouted behind him, "Here comes someone! Come up here!"

Immediately, some well-prepared folk arrived carrying straw mats.

Right in the middle of the two waves of confrontation, the soldiers and civilians of Zhuozhou put down their low chairs, quickly spread straw mats on both sides, and quickly settled down.

The Zhuozhou Army seemed to be fully prepared, and the shorter ones were well prepared.

——

The two parties involved in the peace talks sat down and faced each other at intervals.

Li Mengxi was high-spirited, while Huangfu Song looked cold.

Li Mengxi had a smile on his face. Although he was smiling, he spoke aggressively. He raised his hand and pointed in the distance. Li Mengxi asked, "Old General, what do you think of our trenches and fortresses? With such deep trenches and high fortresses, I'm afraid Sun Wu would not be able to survive if he were alive."

Even Sun Wu had to be surrounded and killed, let alone Huangfu Song.

The profound meaning of Li Mengxi's words was so profound that Huangfu Song obviously understood it.

Huangfu Song sneered and said, "Even if I die, why should I be afraid of fighting with you!"

At this point, Huangfu Song couldn't even say anything about fighting to the death. He could only say why he was afraid of a battle with the Zhuozhou Army.

Thinking that not long ago, Huangfu Song was still aggressive and wanted to destroy the Zhuozhou Army, Li Mengxi couldn't help but shook his head and smiled.

Looking directly at Huangfu Song without hesitation, Li Mengxi said loudly, "One day ago, this junior said that he could wipe out tens of thousands of the veteran general's army without leaving a single person alive. This was indeed a boast.

Today, however, our army's trenches have been completed. The trenches are five feet wide and one foot deep, and the height of the trenches is more than one person.

The juniors only need to set up a gun formation and block the middle and middle roads with vehicles and horses. If the general fights, the juniors will make the old general escape in one fell swoop!"

Li Mengxi's words were decisive and murderous.

Li Mengxi's eyes were sharp and he said with a strange air, "With such a disadvantage, the senior general said he dared to fight, and the juniors didn't doubt it.

It’s just that the pitiful old general spent half his life in the army, and now he has to bury his bones in the wilderness, how desolate it is!”

He specifically named the situation of the officers and soldiers and warned Huangfu Song not to act rashly.

As soon as the words changed, Li Mengxi smiled brilliantly and said, "On the contrary, our two families are here to besiege thieves, why should we fight with swords and guns? Peace is more important, what does the old general think?"

At this time, Huangfusong's mind was not on the negotiation. Huangfusong stared straight at the neck of the bastard kid in front of him, his eyes like a wolf hiding a fierce look.

(It's so close. If I strike down with a sword, I can kill this head...) There seems to be a scene in front of him of a sword being swung, and the head of the bastard child in front of him immediately flies up and blood spurts out from his neck. Huangfusong is in a happy mood, and the corners of his mouth

The weird smile disappeared in a flash, and his hand was already pressing on the sword at his waist.

When asked how peace is the most precious thing, the steps were given to Huangfu Song but he didn't answer. Li Mengxi was thinking about how much he should blackmail Huangfu Song, but for a moment he didn't notice Huangfu Song's abnormality.

"Due to the confrontation with the old general, our army's journey was delayed for several days and countless amounts of food and grass were lost.

Due to emotions and reasons, the incident started with your officers and soldiers, so you should pay our army money, food and weapons."

Li Mengxi rolled his eyes and said, "... How about, for the price of a thousand bows and crossbows, our army will withdraw from the siege and the general will leave on his own?"

"Yes." Huangfu Song touched the hilt of the sword with his hand, his eyes were cold, his face was expressionless, and he replied absentmindedly.

Huangfu Song showed no counter-offer at all. Li Mengxi was surprised. Isn't there a thousand bows and crossbows? Too few? Less?

Li Mengxi immediately regretted it.

I want to raise the price temporarily, but the words have been spoken and cannot be taken back.

Li Mengxi urged, "Then please ask the old general to send you the crossbows. When the crossbows arrive, our army will fulfill our promise."

Huangfusong was still staring straight at Li Mengxi's neck, his eyes becoming more and more fierce.

Huangfu Song stared at Li Mengxi without shifting his gaze at all. He waved his hand back casually and shouted, "Go and get the crossbow!"

The people behind Huangfu Song hesitated again and again, and had no choice but to follow the order.

Huangfu Song wanted to kill someone to relieve the danger, but he was so close and so murderous that he couldn't hold back anymore.

Li Mengxi is still chattering.

"There are a thousand bows and crossbows, not many.

Just a little bit, our army won’t want it if it’s broken.”

"Besides, there are thousands of pieces, so one piece cannot be missing."

…

Huangfusong looked at the annoying child in front of him. He only saw the child opening his mouth, but there was no sound. Huangfusong grinned weirdly, (I am afraid he will not die with one sword, beheaded with another sword, and then beheaded with another sword...)

Huangfu Song had already grasped the hilt of the sword tightly with his hands, and his body was tense and leaning forward, ready to move.

After Li Mengxi finished speaking, he asked the person behind him to present the silk cloth and pen and ink at the right time.

Things are arranged.

Li Mengxi looked at Huangfu Song who was silent and said, "There is one more thing. In addition to a thousand strong crossbows, the old general needs to sign this order of commendation."

As he spoke, Li Mengxi pushed the thick cloth and pen and ink towards Huangfu Song.

Huangfu Song was in an abnormal mental state, and his attention was all on Li Mengxi's neck, thinking about how to cut it with his sword.

Li Mengxi asked Huangfu Song to sign a commendation order, but Huangfu Song had no expression on his face and looked down at the shorter table in a dull manner.

As soon as he saw Aoji, Huangfusong's mind and when his attention touched Aoji, Huangfusong immediately had a fantasy in his mind. In his imagination, he reached out and grabbed the neck of the hateful child in front of him, and pressed his head with his hand.

Knock it down hard, bang your head hard on the low table, knock it to death, knock it down again, knock it hard, knock it hard!

Poor Huangfusong, in the past few days, he had been repeatedly forced into desperate situations by Li Mengxi. The rope around the necks of the officers and soldiers was getting tighter and tighter. Huangfusong's spirit was distorted and he was going crazy.

Li Mengxi felt strange.

Huangfu Song in front of him lowered his head and stared at the silk cloth on the low table, motionless for a long time.

Could it be that the conditions are too harsh, Li Mengxi couldn't help but wonder.

Suddenly, Huangfu suddenly raised his head, with a slightly twisted expression, and showed a strange smile to Li Mengxi, hehehe.

Facing Huangfu Song's strange smile, Li Mengxi felt a sense of fear for no reason, as if something dangerous was about to happen, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

At this moment, there was a stunned sound of a sword being unsheathed, a swipe sound, a flash of cold light, and the blade passed quickly in front of his eyes. Li Mengxi could not help but narrow his eyes due to the light reflected by the blade.

There was a "stuck" sound, and the short table swayed for a few times. The brush on the inkstone rolled down and rolled along the short table, staining it with ink.

After coming back to his senses, Li Mengxi looked at the table and slashed with a knife. One corner of the table was chopped off and the cut was as smooth as a mirror.

The one who drew the sword was Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei's eyes widened and he glared at Huangfu Song. He warned in a cold voice, word for word, "Don't do anything rashly!"

Huangfu Song's eyes cleared up for a while. Huangfu Song woke up and looked at Zhang Fei for a long time. Huangfu Song's face changed several times, but he was finally defeated by Zhang Fei's murderous intent. Huangfu Song was defeated and his eyes dodged, but he was no match for Zhang Fei's murderous intent.

The danger suddenly came to an end.

Just now, Huangfu Song touched the sword's hilt with his right hand and had already pulled out the sword by a knuckle length.

Li Mengxi has no fighting experience and is slow to perceive danger.

Fortunately, Zhang Fei was guarding him, and Zhang Fei was keeping an eye on him. When he saw Huangfu Song raising his hand over the weapon and raising his body as if he was about to attack, Zhang Fei was afraid that the old man Huangfu would take risks, so he drew his sword in surprise.

Being frightened by Zhang Fei's move, Huangfu Song was afraid of Zhang Fei's power and knew that nothing could be accomplished with this person by his side.

Huangfusong could only sigh in his heart.

Things are so difficult that even if you want to take risks, you can't use them.

After withdrawing his mind, Huangfu Song looked towards the short table.

Let's talk about Li Mengxi. After he was startled by Zhang Fei, Li Mengxi realized later that Huangfu Song might be planning to commit murder.

Li Mengxi immediately tensed up, his hand touched the short knife on his waist, his body tensed up, and he stared at Huangfu Song, cautiously guarding against it.

When Huangfu Song was about to commit murder, Li Mengxi was unaware of it. Only after Huangfu Song gave up the idea of ​​committing murder did Li Mengxi realize that he was nervous.

He was so slow that if Zhang Fei hadn't been there, Li Mengxi would have been dead.

Li Mengxi was shocked to realize that not only the enemy's envoys may bring danger, but also the negotiations between the two armies and the meeting between the commanders.

Both sides have a balance of power, and neither side wants to continue fighting and fall.
To be continued...
