Black Bear Pass.

The Northern Di envoys were allowed in again. So far, this was the third round of peace talks.

Xu Jinyi had already sent a message to Beidi before. It is said that three times the limit is enough. If the peace talks fail today, there will be no need to talk again in the future.

With this in mind, the Beidi people came here today fully prepared.

Of course, the leader of the team was still Kodar. Although he was not willing to be an ambassador of peace talks anymore, the King of Beidi rejected his request for a strike and gave him great authority. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and bring his men over.

Of course, he was angry after all, so he just gave it a go and decided to talk if he could, and if not, he would just agree to the other party's request.

After both parties sat down, Kodar took out a roll of sheepskin first, unfolded it, and read aloud the contents on it.

"For the sake of the diplomatic relations that have been established between Beidi and the Yuan Dynasty over the years, Beidi is willing to give you 10,000 horses, 3,000 cattle and 5,000 sheep this time. We require that your dynasty must immediately return the bodies of Prince Hongkang, King Shannan and the Second Prince. As for the Beidi warriors detained by you, they must also be released immediately..."

As he read, he observed the expressions of Xu Jinyi and others. Finally, he coughed lightly and said seriously:

"The reason why the two sides had such a big conflict this time was completely a misunderstanding. Our king also said that the common people will suffer in the end if they keep fighting. That's why we took the initiative to propose to sign a fifty-year peace treaty with you."

After he finished speaking, Xu Jinyi glanced at Qi Siyuan, and seeing him nod slightly at him, he understood what he meant.

"I have already made it very clear before that I would exchange one horse for one person. You will release the person when the horse arrives. Why are you bringing out some cattle and sheep now?"

For General Xu Jinyi, the rarest and most scarce thing is of course the war horse. Besides, the value of the war horse is far beyond that of ordinary cattle and sheep.

As for the fifty-year peace treaty, no one present believed it.

The border wars have never stopped in recent years, so what peace treaty? No one takes it seriously.

Moreover, according to the ideas of Xu Jinyi and others, Beidi lost three generals and tens of thousands of war horses in succession this time, and its combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced in the future. It will no longer have the ability to fight against the Yuan Dynasty.

"General, please be flexible. We don't have that many war horses. The 10,000 horses we were able to spare this time were gathered from various tribes..."

Kodar smiled bitterly and bowed to Xu Jinyi repeatedly.

"Besides, the value of cattle and sheep is still very high. Cows can plow the fields. Your Yuan Dynasty has so much fertile land. No matter how many cattle you have, it will not be enough. Sheep are also very valuable for health preservation. Eating them will be good for the human body and make people stronger..."

Kodar tried his best to say nice things, but he knew that cattle, sheep and horses were not on the same level at all.

"Not enough horses?"

Xu Jinyi sneered and said meaningfully:

"Don't you have tens of thousands of troops? I see they have been stationed there for several days. Could it be that they are here to send us horses?"

It turns out that these people thought that their Yuan Dynasty generals were blind and could not even see that the enemy army was about to reach their gates.

"Those people were only gathered here to escort our envoys. General, don't worry. As long as the peace talks are successful today, we will bring them back."

Kodar explained that when he mentioned the Northern Di army, he was even more resentful.

The original intention of the King of Beidi was to let them try their best to negotiate. If they failed to reach an agreement, he would let the second prince Altan, Morigen and others, and tens of thousands of Beidi warriors to force them by force.

However, their envoys suffered humiliation in Black Bear Pass in the past few days. After returning, they discussed with Altan and others, but they found that the other party had no intention of sending troops at all.

The reason why he brought soldiers here was just to show it to the King of Beidi.

According to Altan, Prince Hongkang was so arrogant and domineering that he deserved to be shot and killed by the Yuan Dynasty people.

In fact, the King of Beidi had quite a few sons, as many as twenty of them, and even among them, there were more than ten adult princes.

Now that the eldest prince is gone, the second prince has naturally become the heir to the throne. There are plenty of good days waiting for him in the future. Asking him to fight for his life, Altan will not do such a stupid thing.

Kodar had no choice but to persuade Xu Jinyi for a long time, but Xu Jinyi insisted that if he wanted to change people, he must use a horse. If that was not enough, he could also use two cows to exchange for one person.

The two sides argued for a long time, and Kodar really had no choice. After thinking about the current situation in Beidi, he gritted his teeth and agreed.

Just exchange it for 10,000 horses. As for the remaining quantity, you can follow Xu Jinyi's orders and exchange it for two cows.

The Northern Di people were relieved, and the Yuan Dynasty was also very happy. It happened that the Crown Prince Qi Siyuan of the Yuan Dynasty was present, and the Second Prince Altan of the Northern Di people was also present, so the so-called peace treaty could be signed immediately.

So Kodar sent someone back to notify Altan to come, and also to send over the necessary horses and cattle, so that everything could be settled today, and the matter could come to an end.

The two sides had been arguing for so long, and today there was finally a result. No one wanted to cause any more trouble, so when they sat down to negotiate, their tones became much softer.

"I didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so handsome and powerful. Under your leadership, the Yuan Dynasty will surely prosper and the country and the people will live in peace..."

As soon as Altan came in, he bowed to Qi Siyuan and never stopped complimenting him.

He was not as cruel as Prince Hongkang, and he was in high spirits recently because of good things happening to him. So when he looked at the generals of the Yuan Dynasty, the smile on his face never stopped.

"I have long heard of your great name, Your Highness the Second Prince. I heard that you are a famous warrior of Beidi. If the Second Prince becomes the leader of Beidi in the future, it will be a blessing for the people of Beidi..."

Qi Siyuan also smiled. Both of them understood what the other meant, so they bowed to each other and politely sat down in the seats Xu Jinyi had arranged for them.

Soon someone from the Yuan Dynasty came to report that the horses and cattle given as exchange had been counted and the captives had also been released.

Similarly, someone from Beidi also came to report the news. In this case, both parties were ready to sign the contract.

"Wait, we have one more condition!"

Just then, footsteps were heard outside the door, and as a familiar voice sounded, everyone looked at the door with their mouths wide open.
