El brought Humphrey and others out and made it clear that he wanted Su Cheng to see the negotiation chips in his hands.

But Su Cheng didn't tell. He led Eliza to see Humphrey and others first.

On the two prison cars brought by El, there were 41 officials of the northern border administration, such as Humphrey and yallin.

Judging from their clothes and faces, they haven't had a bad life as prisoners these days. It can be seen that El hasn't abused them. He is indeed entertaining them with good food and drink.

"I'm sorry... Captain Cheng, I've caused you trouble..."

When Su Cheng was near Humphrey's prison car, Humphrey apologized to Su Cheng in an apologetic tone.

"Don't apologize, Mr Humphrey."

Su Cheng comforted Humphrey.

"It's not your fault. No one can imagine that a Hiram army suddenly jumped out and captured Baidi city."

"Don't worry, Mr. Humphrey. I'll get you out."

After talking, Su Cheng turned and returned to the wooden table on the high slope.

After Su Cheng came back, El waved to the coachman driving the two prison cars, indicating that they could leave.

After all, these are very important negotiation chips. After Su Cheng has determined that Humphrey and others are safe, it is better to return these negotiation chips to a safe city.

After the two Coachmans drove the two prison cars holding Humphrey and others away, Su Cheng asked El:

"You shouldn't have been rude to the civilians in Betty?"

"Of course not." El replied without hesitation, "before starting to attack Baidi City, I had made repeated orders to my subordinates to prohibit harassing the civilians in Baidi city."

"So please rest assured that there are no civilian casualties in Baidi city except for many defenders in Baidi city. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to check in the city. "

Su Cheng was silent for a while and shook his head.

"No, I believe you."

There is no doubt that El is a smart man.

As a smart man, El naturally would not do anything that would "harass the civilians in Baidi city", which would anger Su Cheng and increase the possibility of the breakdown of negotiations with Su Cheng.

Therefore, Su Cheng believes that what El just said is the truth, and the civilians in Baidi city have not been harassed by his subordinates.

After confirming the safety of Humphrey and others and the civilians in Baidi City, Su Cheng directly said:

"Come on, how on earth can we let Mr. Humphrey and others go?"

And El, like Su Cheng, is not very polite and nonsense.

Seeing that Su Cheng has been straight to the point, El doesn't do superfluous courtesy. He directly takes out a piece of paper from his pocket and hands it to Su Cheng:

"Just exchange the 41 people written on this paper. As long as we can exchange the 41 people written on the paper and ensure the safety of me and my troops. "

"How many men are there in your army?" Su Cheng asked back as he took the paper from El.

"Less than 2000." And El answered truthfully.

There is nothing to hide about the number of troops under his command.

After all, it's not bad to have 200 people or 20000 people.

Trapped in the enemy's territory and helpless, if Su Chengtie wants to destroy them, even if he has 20000 troops, he will only be destroyed for a little longer.

There was no point in hiding, so El chose to report truthfully.

After spreading out the paper handed by El, Su Cheng began to look at it at a glance.

On this piece of paper are the names of people.

The first name in this group is Dominic Broy, the name of the commander of the Hiran army.

Su Cheng didn't recognize the second name after that.

——Camille young? Who is this?

After searching in his mind, Su Cheng didn't think about who Camille Yang was, so he jumped over and looked at the names of the people after him.

Su Cheng knows most of the 41 names listed on this paper. They are some famous senior generals and senior Quartermaster of the Holy Hiran empire.

El wanted to trade these people for Humphrey and others. Presumably, these people must have participated in the expedition of the Holy Hiran Empire and were trapped in the eghar corridor or muhavitz fortress.

Su Cheng glanced at the list in his hand and said:

"It's no problem to ensure the safety of you and your troops and let you safely return to the Holy Hiran empire."

"It's no problem to exchange Mr. Humphrey and others for some people in the muhavitz fortress and eghal corridor."

"But not so much."

After that, Su Cheng took out his pen and ink and smeared it on the list in his hand.

"Only these 20 people can be exchanged for Mr. Humphrey and them."

After that, Su Cheng returned the list to El.

When El got back the list, he looked at it immediately.

Dominic, Camille - the names of the two most important people for EL and Gabriel were not crossed out, which made El feel relieved.

But the names of 21 others were crossed out.

Looking at the 21 names crossed out by Su Cheng, El couldn't help laughing bitterly:

"Commander Su Cheng, I'll exchange 41 officials from the northern border Administration for 41 people on our side, one for one. Isn't that fair? No, there can be no fewer people on this list. "

"... el, with all due respect, don't you understand your situation?"

"Now the 300000 Hiram troops in the eghar corridor have no supplies. They are in my bag."

"You have only 41 hostages, while I have 300000 hostages."

"And if I think your conditions are too harsh, I can terminate the negotiation at any time. Then send troops to wipe you out. Mr. Humphrey and others will kill you if you like. "

"The big deal is to reorganize another Northern Territory administration. There are more than 80 million people in the British Empire. Can't you find someone who can reorganize the Northern Territory administration?"

"So - the initiative of this negotiation is entirely in my hands. Whether the negotiation is smooth or not will not have much impact on me."

"But whether the negotiation is smooth or not is very important to your relationship."

"So - do you understand your situation now? You were not qualified to negotiate with me on an equal footing from the beginning. I am willing to talk to you. You should thank me with tears and thank me for my great kindness. "

Su Cheng's tone was very tough.

No face, no room for EL.

Su Cheng's toughness surprised el and made El smile again.

El did not fail to understand his current situation.

As Su Chenggang just said, the initiative of negotiation is entirely in Su Cheng's hands.

If Su Cheng is unhappy, he can terminate the negotiation at any time, no longer care about the life and death of Humphrey and others, and then wipe them out directly.

No matter Humphrey and others, he will no longer return any senior general or Quartermaster of the Hiran army.

Su Cheng has the ability to lift the table, but El doesn't.

Therefore, from the beginning of this negotiation, El was doomed to be extremely passive and need to make continuous concessions.
