In front of Su Ye.
It is an elite iron army that has undergone rigorous training!
Ten days of devilish training completely transformed them.
A well-disciplined, united, and invincible army was formed.
The queue was neat and uniform, majestic, and the armor was shining.
Under the sunlight, it looks like a sea of metal, which is awe-inspiring.
Su Ye stood at the front of the team, examining every soldier.
Feel their firm eyes and full fighting spirit.
This force is his brainchild, an elite force he has trained with his own hands.
They not only possess superb martial arts, but also possess tenacious will and loyal qualities.
In the future battles, they will exert their infinite power to protect the safety and prosperity of Yan State.
At the same time, Zhao Liren, the envoy of the Chu State and the Minister of Civil Affairs, also arrived at Beimen Pass.
They came under the orders of Chu Muxue, intending to start peace negotiations with the Yan State.
As the defeated party, the Chu envoy should have lacked confidence.
Not to mention the spectacular scene of witnessing 10,000 elite iron troops.
However, Zhao Liren still couldn't forget the past.
At that time, Su Ye was just a young and unknown official who was just starting out.
For the great cause of Chu Muxue's ascension to the throne, he once served under Zhao Liren of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
This situation made Zhao Liren subconsciously regard Su Ye as his former subordinate.
Even though Su Ye has now reached a position beyond his reach, this understanding still exists.
When facing Su Ye, Zhao Liren maintained an indescribable confidence.
Zhao Liren stared at Beimen Pass, which was controlled by Yan State, and arrogantly issued instructions to the messenger soldiers:
"You, go and convey my message and inform you that Prime Minister Su Ye will come to meet me as soon as possible."
Everyone present, especially the Yan State Iron Army who had gone through rigorous training.
Hearing such rude words makes everyone feel angry.
Could Prime Minister Su be called directly by the envoy sent by the defeated general?
The city gate guards were not lax, because at this moment they represented the dignity of Yan State and could not be violated by anyone.
Wang Zhicheng looked contemptuous, walked straight to Zhao Liren, and said coldly:
"Is it true that you can see Prime Minister Su whenever you want? When asking for help, you must have the attitude of asking for help."
After saying that, the guards all made noises and taunted him.
"How dare a group of defeated generals be so arrogant!"
"The envoy of the Chu State does not know how high the sky is and how high it is!"
Pushing and mercilessly driving Zhao Li and his party out of the city gate.
The Chu envoys immediately felt ashamed and accused the Yan soldiers of being rude.
Zhao Liren was filled with anger, but there was nothing he could do.
He never expected that he, who was highly respected in Chu State, would be treated like this when he came to Yan State.
As the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Zhao Liren tasted the bitter pill of damaged dignity for the first time in his life.
But he also knew that if he failed in this mission and returned, he would definitely be blamed by Chu Muxue.
Thinking of Chu Muxue's methods, Zhao Liren couldn't help but stand in chills.
Although he was unwilling to do so, he understood that it was not wise to have a head-on conflict with the Yan State Iron Army at this time.
Zhao Liren tried his best to suppress his inner anger and ordered his entourage to rectify the team.
A flattering smile appeared on his face, and he said flatteringly:
"General, please convey this message to Prime Minister Su on your behalf."
The leading soldier glared at him deliberately and responded arrogantly:
"The Yan army is not as lax in discipline as the Chu army, and they are never allowed to leave their posts without permission."
Zhao Liren immediately understood the meaning of the soldier's words and looked around.
Then, he secretly took out a few taels of silver and handed them to the soldiers.
The soldier weighed the money before going to report it.
Arrogant at first and respectful at the end, it makes people laugh when they think about it.
When the guards of Yan Kingdom saw Zhao Liren's appearance, the air was filled with sharp sarcasm.
Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.
Wang Zhicheng snorted coldly and motioned for them to follow.
After some twists and turns, Zhao Liren and others were finally able to enter Beimen Pass and start negotiations with Su Ye.
Su Ye was dressed in white and sat calmly on the main seat with a calm expression.
Zhao Liren and his party stepped into the palace and immediately felt an invisible pressure.
Cautiously restraining his arrogant attitude, Zhao Liren carefully waited for Su Ye's words.
Su Ye's eyes were deep and sharp. He stared at Zhao Liren closely, as if he was examining the other person's heart.
After a moment of silence, he finally spoke, his tone flat but containing irresistible majesty:
"If Chu wants to reconcile, it must accept the three conditions proposed by Yan."
Zhao Liren couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and waited nervously for Su Ye's next words.
"First: Chu State needs to cede Beimen Pass and surrounding areas to Yan State."
"Second, the State of Chu must compensate the State of Yan ten thousand taels of gold, one hundred thousand dans of grain, and ten thousand fine horses."
Su Ye spoke slowly, as if giving an ultimatum to Chu State.
When Zhao Liren heard this, his expression suddenly became a little angry.
Su Ye was undoubtedly opening his mouth to the lion and taking advantage of the situation.
Zhao Liren knew that he was in a dilemma.
If he agrees to Su Ye's conditions, he will face Chu Muxue's wrath after returning home.
If he doesn't agree, Su Ye will never accept the peace proposal.
The messengers around him were talking in low voices, and their anxiety was palpable.
Bringing the news of the ceding of Beimen Pass back to Chu State would only cause the entire mission to be killed without mercy.
Zhao Liren suppressed the panic in his heart and blurted out:
"I can't make the decision. I have to ask His Majesty what he wants before I can give you an answer."
Su Ye's expression suddenly turned cold, and his voice was as cold as ice:
"I will give you three days. If there is no result after three days, don't blame me for not giving you a chance!"
The atmosphere in the palace instantly became tense, and the Chu envoys looked at each other in horror.
Zhao Liren couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling regretful in his heart. He would have known better that he should not have taken this job.
The Yan State Iron Army quickly surrounded the palace and surrounded the Chu State envoys.
Facing such a powerful enemy, the Chu envoys were helpless and could only leave sadly.
The city gate of Beimenguan slowly closed behind them, as if indicating that Chu State's defeat in this war was certain.
Behind them, there was a spectacular scene of ten thousand iron troops leaving the city.
Mighty and majestic, the momentum is like a rainbow.
We went straight to the next city, Jingyangguan District, fifty miles away from Beimen Pass to camp.
The whole army lined up, showing strong murderous intent.
The purpose is very clear, that is to put pressure on Chu State.
Let them understand the determination and strength of Yan State.
Zhao Liren was shocked. He did not expect that Yan State would launch an attack immediately after failing to seek peace.
He knew very well that with the current strength of the Chu State, it was impossible to withstand the iron hoof of the Yan State.
In fear and desperation, Zhao Liren immediately sent a message via pigeon.
Send Su Ye's three conditions to Chu Muxue.
