Chapter 1205: 1206 Another kind of relief

 Chapter 12051206Another kind of relief

 Tang Jun has begun to resume fishing activities near the South Island and the New Island. The fishing efficiency of modern fishing boats is obviously much higher than that of the broken boats driven by the fishermen of the Mirage Kingdom in the past.

 The large amount of fish caught actually filled the food gap on the two islands, and many goblins even lived a better life than before.

 This is also a dividend brought by the improvement of efficiency. In order to become familiar with the status of the fishing grounds in the nearby waters as quickly as possible, Datang hired some goblins and squeezed out their last bit of use.

 Due to the increase in sea-caught production, in order to consume these seafood, canneries began to be built on the South Island and began to produce some canned seafood.

 In addition, dry goods have also become best-sellers. These products are very popular, and many seafood products, especially crabs from around the North Island, are very popular.

Since the Mirage’s ships could no longer go to sea, the Tang Empire’s fishing ships had no competitors. Things that used to need to be imported in small quantities have now been driven down in price.

From a certain perspective, this may be considered a spectacle: two countries are still at war, and the fishing boats of one country have gone fishing in the waters of another country...

Frankly speaking, the people of the Mirage country near Beidao were dumbfounded when they saw the Tang warships on the sea: they had almost no ships that could threaten the safety of the Tang people.

The few old destroyers are all products of the ironclad era. They were either sunk or dismantled to make steel to make other weapons.

 The current Mirage Navy does not even have a suicide speedboat, let alone the trouble of going to sea to find the Tang Dynasty fishing boats.

Even more embarrassing is that the fishing boats of the Tang Empire would often go to the offshore waters of the North Island and release some food and other things with lifebuoys tied to them, including biscuits and instant noodles, and some wooden boards with writing on them.

People from the Mirage country who pick up these things are often overjoyed, but the words written on them are hard to understand: these wooden boards often have words like "accumulating virtue" and "doing good" written on them, and they don't know who they are. What's the meaning.

I later learned that the TV and radio stations of the Tang Dynasty often broadcast stories about the people of the Mirage Kingdom who, under the brutal rule of the Mirage Emperor, did not have enough to eat and had to pay heavy taxes. The people were living in dire straits and were miserable. As a result, some kind-hearted fishermen from the Tang Dynasty would leave some food before leaving, which was regarded as a "kind act".

I have to say that this is also a kind of magic.

 …

Different from the North Island, due to the war situation near the main island, the life of the civilians in the Mirage Country is really not easy. It's still possible to survive in the northern mountainous area, but the mirage in the central part is really completely different.

While the orcs were tasting the canned food shipped from the Tang Empire, the mirage city defenders in the mirage kingdom basically only had the most basic food supply.

 Compared to the goblin soldiers of the Mirage City who starved to the end in the central fortification area, the goblins in the Mirage City had a slightly easier life.

 They have plenty of supplies, at least at this desperate moment of siege, they still have something to eat.

While the goblins of the Mirage Kingdom were struggling in their own royal city, within the royal city of the Lions Empire, among the embassy of the Tang Empire, Suomi, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Lions Empire, and the diplomats of the Susas Empire Under the witness of the official, a large seal was slowly stamped on a peace treaty.

"Congratulations! The war between the two countries is finally over." Suomi, the foreign minister of the Lions Empire, took the lead in standing up and applauding, and the diplomats of the Susas Empire also clapped their hands.

The reporters who were invited around dared to press the shutter at this time, because they saw the officials of the Tang Dynasty on the side nodded slightly at them.     This was a signal, a signal that they could film and be allowed to report on it. Everyone began to press the shutter unscrupulously to record such an important moment.

"Yes, congratulations! Your country will soon be freed from the quagmire of war!" The diplomats in Susas nodded and said.

There was not much irony in their words, because everyone knew how much pressure there was when facing the behemoth of the Tang Empire.

What's more, if a peace treaty is not signed, this mirage country is expected to be completely destroyed: now everyone knows that they cannot defend the royal city at all, and no one is optimistic that the mirage emperor can defend Beidao.

To put it bluntly, if the Tang Empire was not really unwilling to take in those goblins, and was not willing to bear the bad reputation of genocide, maybe this war would last until next summer, and there would not be a few goblins left.

The Mirage has been able to sustain this war until now, mostly because the follow-up attack was fought by orc troops. If the Tang Empire had always been fighting, the Mirage would have been finished long ago.

Several goblin diplomats looked embarrassed. They were obviously losers, but they seemed to have won the battle.

"The peace treaty will officially take effect in three days. During this time, the orc troops will stop active attacks..." The diplomat of the Tang Empire smiled and shook hands with the goblin diplomat, as if it was not the Tang Empire that started the war before.

 “It can be said that the war is over!” He posed several times in front of the media cameras to make himself look so harmless and amiable.

It is a pity that the smiles on the faces of the foreign diplomats are uglier than tears: they have just basically taken the blame for betraying their country and seeking glory.

The peace treaty they signed was basically the most stringent armistice treaty in the world - bar none! From now on, the Mirage Kingdom can basically be said to have ceased to exist.

 The name of the mirage country has been cancelled, and the title of mirage emperor will no longer exist. From now on, the Mirage Kingdom can only call itself Beidao to the outside world, and the Mirage Emperor can only call himself the owner of Beidao.

His international status is similar to that of a duke, and Beidao is no longer a monarchy. Mirage Wuxiong will serve as the commander of the North Island garrison, and Mirage Wenmao will become the first prime minister of Beidao.

As a compromise, the Tang Dynasty agreed that the deputy commander of the Beidao garrison should be Mirage Wuyou recommended by Emperor Mirage, while Mirage Wenxin was chosen as the first deputy prime minister.

Because they were responsible for the use of prohibited weapons such as landmines and water mines in the war, Mirage Dabo and Mirage Wuke, as well as Mirage Wenyou, an important minister of the Mirage Kingdom, were to be publicly tried and then sentenced to death.

 After the peace treaty comes into effect, the Tang Empire will provide transport ships to transport all the goblins on the South Island, New Island, and Main Island among the four islands of the Mirage Kingdom to the North Island.

Beidao will become a dependent territory of the Datang Empire. In the future, the Datang Empire will station troops on the North Island. The Navy fleet of the Datang Empire can use the port facilities on the North Island for free, and the Air Force of the Datang Empire can also use the Tang Army to operate on the North Island. The island's airport.

Before these additional conditions, there is an even more depressing clause: the Mirage, or North Island, must recognize the Tang Empire’s legal ownership of the South Island, the New Island and the Main Island, and recognize the Orcs’ actual right to occupy and use the Main Island. .

In other words, this peace treaty was the first in history to cede three-quarters of the territory after defeat. Under normal circumstances, if the opponent gains such a huge advantage, he will directly destroy the country and will not leave a little space to sign such a contract.

 So, this is an unprecedented first, and it also makes many media reporters excited: they have witnessed something unprecedented.

 The second update will be during the day tomorrow...it may be a little later, so you don’t have to wait.
