The Way of the Heavens

Chapter 17 Armistice Negotiations

The frontline battlefield between the Yu and Yao tribes, Guanghui City.

The huge city is like a ferocious beast, relying on the several-meter-high city walls, blocking the pace of the Yao army like a natural barrier.

The army of the Dayu Dynasty is stationed in the city. Whether in the sky, on the city walls, or in the streets of the city, every place is full of patrolling figures of Yu soldiers, always alert to the enemy's surprise attack at night.

As for the Yao people who originally lived here, they either rose up to resist and were killed when the Dayu army invaded, or were demoted to slaves and sent to the rear of the Dayu Dynasty.

A luxurious mansion in the city, which has long been transformed into a temporary palace by the Dayu army, is the place where Emperor Yu and the generals discuss matters.

Emperor Yu Fengyu sat in the palace in casual clothes, exuding a powerful aura that made people dare not look directly at him.

"The tribes can't sit still anymore. They won't watch the Dayu Dynasty destroy the four tribes and then use this as a base to encroach on the southern land."

"Now the tribes are secretly supporting the four tribes, which has greatly increased the number of casualties among Dayu soldiers during this period. Do you have any good ideas for this?"

A man of the Feather Tribe with green wings and wearing heavy armor walked out from a seat nearby and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, our Dayu army is invincible. Even if the Yao tribe gets support from other tribes, I am willing to lead the army to defeat it and kill them without leaving a single piece of armor. Let's see how the tribes can stop Dayu's steps."

"No, although Dayu soldiers are brave, the Yao tribe has the secret support of other tribes, and its strength has been greatly improved. It should not be underestimated. If the two armies fight, it may be a result of both sides being injured, which will greatly reduce Dayu's strength, which will take advantage of the tribes' wishes."

Hearing the words of the green-winged man, a general stood up from the opposite seat and quickly refuted.

Another general who advocated war stood up, "Hmph, if we don't go out to fight, are we going to hide here?"

...

Looking at his men arguing with each other in the palace, Feng Yu, who was sitting on top, said, "Okay."

As soon as he said this, the people who were arguing suddenly became quiet, waiting aside, and no longer uttered a word.

"Pass on my order, I want to sign a ceasefire agreement with the four tribes. After half a month, the four tribes can send people to this city for negotiations, and the troops of each tribe can also come."

"Your Majesty...this..."

"Yes!"

The green-winged man's face was full of entanglement, but he finally obeyed the order of Emperor Yu.

It is impossible for the various tribes to watch Dayu completely annex and occupy the land of the four tribes and expand and strengthen itself. Dayu was just established, and it was not appropriate to be enemies with the southern tribes.

Therefore, the most likely possibility for the Dayu Dynasty now is to withdraw its troops under the pressure of the various tribes and give back the occupied territories of the four tribes. Otherwise, the various tribes will increase their support for the four tribes or directly intervene in the battlefield, and the Dayu Dynasty will be in danger.

The Dayu Dynasty invaded the four tribes and obtained a huge amount of resources, which was enough to increase its strength by one or two times in the future. Generally speaking, the Dayu Dynasty benefited a lot from this war.

Now that the four tribes cannot be destroyed now, and it is disadvantageous to drag it on, the Dayu Dynasty can only sign a ceasefire agreement with them and negotiate. Of course, Dayu can also see if it can gain more benefits from this.

…………

Half a month later, the Yao, Yue, Yi, and Jia tribes, who received the news of the ceasefire negotiations of Emperor Yu, naturally sent people to Guanghui City with joy. During this month, they were very anxious and uneasy. If they were not careful, the four tribes might be exterminated.

In fact, if other tribes did not support them, the four tribes would most likely be occupied by the Dayu Dynasty within a few months, and they would also become slaves or displaced.

However, the strong men of each tribe came to support them not without selflessness, and they also needed to pay a certain price.

If they rely on the support of other tribes to defeat the Yu tribe and recapture the territory, the price they have to pay will be very huge, and even the recaptured territory will not be theirs. In the future, the four tribes will completely become vassals of other tribes.

Now that the Dayu Dynasty is willing to cease fire, the four tribes are naturally very happy, but they do not fully trust the Dayu Dynasty. They are afraid that the Dayu Dynasty will use the excuse of ceasefire negotiations to destroy the four tribes who went to negotiate. Therefore, the four tribes invited the southern tribes to negotiate, hoping that the tribes can witness the negotiations.

Once the Dayu Dynasty does not want to cease fire, refuses to negotiate, or attacks the four tribes, they can also ask the tribes to take action and send troops to attack the Dayu Dynasty together.

In Guanghui City, people from all tribes gathered together to negotiate a ceasefire with the Dayu Dynasty in a temporary palace.

"The Dayu Dynasty can withdraw its troops from the territories of the four tribes, but each tribe needs to compensate Dayu with cultivation resources that can train thirty blood coagulation warriors, as well as the territory of ten cities."

At the negotiation table, a man from the Yu tribe came straight to the point and stated the conditions for Dayu Dynasty to withdraw its troops.

Although the languages ​​and scripts of the tribes are different, there have been some exchanges and trades between the tribes for thousands of years, so naturally some people understand different languages.

When the translator relayed the Dayu Dynasty's withdrawal conditions to the representatives of the four tribes, everyone couldn't believe their ears.

"Pah!"

The representative of the Yao tribe slammed the stone table in front of him, and the huge force immediately caused cracks on it. The representative of the Yao tribe said angrily: "Resources to train thirty blood coagulation warriors and ten cities, why don't you go and grab them? This is impossible!"

The representatives of the other three tribes also protested: "Yes, we can't accept this condition!"

It would be easy to compensate Dayu Dynasty with ten cities. After all, Dayu occupied more than ten cities in the four tribes. Just paying ten of them would not affect them at all. After all, those were not their cities.

However, they could not accept the compensation of resources that could train thirty blood coagulation warriors.

You should know that Dayu Dynasty occupied a large area of ​​territory of the four tribes and plundered a lot of resources, leaving less than one-third of the territory for each tribe. The resources that could be obtained could only be used by themselves.

The blood coagulation realm is a high-end combat power for a race. In the heyday of the four tribes, there were only eighty or ninety blood coagulation warriors. How could they get the resources to train so many blood coagulation warriors now?

So the representatives of the four tribes were very angry and thought that the Yu tribe was completely forcing others to do something difficult and were unwilling to stop the war and withdraw their troops.

They wanted to leave and continue the stalemate with Dayu Dynasty, but they did not dare to do so, because they were afraid that once the negotiations were over, if other races did not help them and wanted to sit back and watch them and Dayu lose, they would most likely be exterminated.

"Huh!"

The representatives of the four tribes exhaled, looked at each other, and then calmed down their emotions and said to the man of the Feather Tribe: "This condition is too high, we can't agree to it. Tell me, how can the Great Yu Dynasty withdraw its troops?"
