Chapter 358 Negotiations Begin_3

As the discussion ended, an official from the North Country's Ministry of War stood up and said, "We have not disclosed how many soldiers the North Country has lost, so how could Great Wu possibly know the extent of our casualties?"

As the official finished, an envoy from Great Wu countered, "With such terrifying weapons at the North Country's disposal, our soldiers were defeated before they even got close to the North Country's army. How could the North Country have sustained significant losses?"

Although it was a humiliating admission, in order to minimize compensation, the members of the Great Wu delegation had no choice but to bring up these points.

After the Great Wu envoy finished speaking, the officials from the North Country began to retort, and the whole hall turned into a bargaining scene between the North Country delegation and Great Wu's ministers, as noisy as a marketplace.

Lu Chen sat on the throne, watching as if the whole affair had nothing to do with him.
