Chapter 468 Chapter 469 CompromiseIt’s okay to say that Ma Wenyi is bold, or he doesn’t dare to make trouble, anyway, he finally got into He took the car, and was sent to Serris's diplomatic reception hotel by the clerks of the special task department of the Imperial Family Guards, who were no less than four magic cultivators.
When Marvin was placed in the splendorous and majestic room, he finally sighed in relief. The decor here is very chic, and it gives him a feeling that Alanhill takes him seriously.
However, he was actually placed here because none of Alanhill's diplomats were willing to negotiate with this envoy from the puppet empire...
Stryd thinks , the current puppet empire can already be said to be on the verge of death. In this situation where the outcome is already divided, it is a waste of time to negotiate with the puppet empire.
This foreign secretary, who has always stood in Alanhill's position and is known as an iron-blooded diplomat, in most cases suggested the use of military means to solve political problems.
In his view, diplomacy is a continuation of politics, and war is a means of resolving political differences - since Alanhill's means can resolve any differences, diplomacy does not require too much skill, allowing war to be resolved. Just keep going.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Empire all have this idea. It is conceivable how other diplomats in this Empire think about the issue of the puppet empire.
The Vice-section Head of the Foreign Office, eleven years older than Stryd, is obese. He believes that the puppet empire, or a part of the puppet empire that wants to surrender, cannot negotiate on an equal footing with the Alanhill empire.
He believed that the rank of the other party was already lower than that of the empire, so the diplomatic envoy of the other party, the Section Head Grade officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Alanhill Empire, could not come forward to meet him.
If the relationship between the two countries is very good and the cooperation has been maintained all the time, it means that the emperor of the empire is a friendly country. Diplomatic personnel are not in line with the relevant diplomatic etiquette regulations of the empire.
At his insistence, various high-level diplomats in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs refused to accept Marvin from the puppet empire.
In the end, everyone went around and read many diplomatic laws and related regulations, and finally found a satisfactory reception method: choose a second-level diplomat, lead a temporary team, and meet this person. Mr. Special Envoy from a hostile country.
At this moment, Marvin, who lives in the Diplomatic Hotel, doesn't know that Alanhill doesn't take this diplomatic negotiation seriously at all. He even rejoiced at his living conditions for a while, and tasted a free lunch that was not rich, but was better than he had never eaten.
In the early morning of the second day, when Marvin was taken to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Building and saw this 70-story building, he realized that... what he was facing was an unprecedented power. nation.
"Mr. Marvin...I have no interest in the conditions you put forward." The second-level diplomat who was elected as a negotiator put down the negotiating conditions brought by Marvin, shook the head and said with some regret: "I can't even pass this level under such conditions."
Marvin also knows that now people have to bow their heads under the eaves, and the new puppet empire is simply powerless to fight. , If the original puppet empire that made sandwich biscuits in front of you, and the betrayed Great Archmage Travish are finished, then the new puppet empire will soon be destroyed.
After all, the newly formed puppet empire doesn't have many troops. In terms of battle strength, the part of the puppet empire controlled by Travish is not a bit worse.
With such a small number of trump cards, naturally there are no particularly good conditions to open. The bargaining chips given by the new puppet empire are actually very sincere, but in the face of the Alanhill Empire, which is ready to fully occupy the puppet empire and never have future troubles, these sincere chips are basically not worth mentioning.
For example, the new puppet empire thinks they can recognize Alanhill's ownership of the original puppet empire's jurisdiction in addition to the new puppet empire's actual control area.
This is tantamount to acknowledging Alanhill's legal ownership of the northeastern part of the original puppet empire, the southeast part, and even the central part. To put it bluntly, it's almost like ceding most of the puppet empire's land to Alanhill.
But on the frontal battlefield, the victory is already in hand. Alanhill, who is in a good war situation, does not think that this is the sincerity of the new puppet empire. If I can defeat it, what else can I do with your confession?
Therefore, the differences between the two sides are actually very large. The new puppet empire hopes to make peace with Alanhill through war reparations, recognition of occupied territories, and restrictions on the number of troops.
But Alanhill only gave the new puppet empire one choice: accept Alanhill's rule, and retain the customs and habits of some puppet empire magicians in the delineated part of the "Dominion" area, which is already the maximum. I've given in...
After seeing these conditions, Marvin's expression changed. He thought it was Alanhill's trouble, but the young diplomat in front of him, who was less than 40 years old, turned out to refuse to yield an inch.
Looking at the other person's face full of "kill me if you want, I don't want to live. Anyway, you and your country will bury me with you, so hurry up and do it!", Marvin really didn't have the mood to talk about it at all.
It's a pity that he didn't dare to walk away, because such a valuable negotiation opportunity is not available every day.
Alanhill's diplomatic team made it clear that if we can't talk today, we will adjourn the meeting tomorrow, and we will continue to talk about this topic a week later.
Anyway, Alanhill has plenty of time. Every week, hundreds of thousands of missiles of various types are produced. In a few months, maybe the floating fleet can go south. .
But the new puppet empire doesn't have that much time - not only the threat of Alanhill, but Travish might turn around and deal with the newly established new puppet empire if he thinks about it. What they lack is precious time.
Intentional calculation without intention, strength and weakness, this diplomatic contest has been doomed from the very beginning.
Therefore, even though what Marvin sees from the other side's face is "We don't want to talk anymore, we will wait for the war to come out directly", he still patiently earnest and well-meant advised Pleading with Alanhill to give the newly formed puppet empire a chance.
"You've got the chance! Join Alanhill, as long as you don't do anything wrong, don't help the devil...you can guarantee its safety!" Like a dead cock, he said to Marvin with an arrogant look.
Marvin continued to shake his head and begged bitterly: "Can't you just leave us a piece of land, just a piece of land? The puppet empire has been standing in this world for thousands of years! It can't die in us. In the hands of these people..."
"A betrayed human being who has taken refuge in the devil's empire, of course, cannot be allowed to exist in this world." As a mortal, this second-level diplomacy The official has a feeling of taking pleasure in other people's misfortune, embarrassing the Magic Empire's evil spirits.
Marvin, who was the first to raise the flag against Travish's Great Archmage, was full of remorse after hearing this remark-they didn't stand up to persuade Travish and did not oppose it. The decision to compromise with the source of magic must now be accepted as such.
So he lowered his head and remained silent, as if recalling his own life and choosing something.
……
Chris is dealing with a mountain of documents in his office. As the emperor of the Great Empire, which has never appeared in history, he wants to approve every day. Thousands of decisions.
For him, going out to lead personally bringing troops into battle is not just about risking the front line to fight - what's more, he also has to deal with the time he is not in the office, which accumulates rapidly up various jobs.
For example, what he is reviewing is a plan for the establishment of a space force in the empire. This plan was submitted by Dez, because as the second richest super-rich in the empire, the money he poured into the universe was second only to Chris.
The bottom of this document was sent by the Imperial Air Force Headquarters. The commander-in-chief of the Air Force, Butoriya, proposed that the Air Force take charge of the command of the floating fleet that will soon be formed.
Chris is also hesitating at this moment, whether to establish a new branch of arms, or to hand over all these flying huge monsters to the Air Force to command.
In fact, this is not a simple decision, the infrastructure including the airport, the logistics supply of these floating fleets, the training of recruits, the production and configuration of weapons... These will all be caused by The issue of service affiliation produces new changes.
For example, if these floating battleships are handed over to the Air Force, what about the Navy? Which operations are commanded by the navy, and which combat missions are performed by the floating battleship?
So all of this has to be carefully weighed, and it is not a hasty choice and decision.
In addition, I heard that the third giant space station has been launched, and the docking has been very successful. More and more experiments in outer space, as well as the replacement of astronauts, all need to be known by Chris.
And the seed of the Elf Race Supreme Treasure Tree of Life sent to Alanhill that Chris hasn't had time to deal with...
It's just too much , Chris has been busy since his return, and has not yet completed the work accumulated by his leader personally bringing troops into battle.
Just as he was worrying about these things, Stryd knocked on the door. He walked into the office of Emperor Your Majesty with a document, triumphant on his face.
Without waiting for Chris to ask questions, he presented the document with both hands to Chris: "The one named Marvin finally signed it... Now, the jurisdiction of the puppet empire is the legal territory of the empire. now!”
