The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 824
Next, the two parties negotiated for a long time on several conditions, and finally reached a preliminary intention.After signing the draft agreement, Geri Lang returned to Selangor and left the outcome of the negotiation to the Emperor to decide.If all goes well, the two countries will stop the war and restore peace.

Regarding this negotiation, it was not that Lin Yifan wanted to compromise and gave up the idea of ​​attacking eternity.But so far, the offensive eternal is not realistic.

The Eternal Kingdom is located on a bitterly cold plateau, the climate is harsh and cold, the roads and traffic are difficult to navigate, and the thin air makes the body tired.

If they rushed to the plateau rashly, soldiers from low altitudes all over the Central Plains would definitely not be able to bear the discomfort caused by altitude sickness.And eternally occupying a favorable location and people may not be unable to defeat the Tianhua Army on the plateau.

Tianhua never fights unprepared battles. Before conquering eternity, he must be fully prepared.This is not only to make comprehensive preparations for future strategies, but also to be responsible for the safety of the soldiers.

Therefore, among the three major conditions of this negotiation, the reason why Lin Yifan voluntarily requested to acquire the Kemir Heights was actually another reason besides the two reasons guessed by Geri Lang.

That is to use the Kemir Highlands to carry out military training, so that the troops stationed in the Western Regions will adapt to the plateau climate in the next period of time, test various problems in plateau operations, and take precautions and preparations as soon as possible.

What's more, the Eternal Plateau is indeed a place of bitter cold, even worse than Mobei.Even if Tianhua seized this piece of land, he wouldn't gain much.On the contrary, after that, more money, food and manpower will be poured into it.

But everything has advantages and disadvantages. If you win Eternity, the threat to the Southwest and the Western Regions will be greatly reduced.It can reduce the consumption of more garrisons and money and food, and promote the prosperity and development of the local area.

At the same time, occupying the eternity, the Vientiane countries in the southwest will border on Tianhua, which is conducive to Tianhua's control and colonization.It can even pass through the countries of Vientiane and attack the Ukaner Sultanate from the south.

However, at this stage, let the Eternal Kingdom fight for Tianhua in Vientiane first, and compensate Tianhua for the losses incurred in the battle of Tianhua.

After all, after this battle, Tianhua also spent no less than ten million taels of money and food. If it wasn't for the quick victory and the short time-consuming, I am afraid that the consumption of this material money and food would be far more than 2000 million.

In late September, Geri Lang returned to Selangor and submitted to Tuo Muxiong the draft agreement he had reached with Tianhua Chaotang.

After reading the above conditions, Tuo Muxiong became furious and scolded loudly.Geri Lang was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground and repeatedly apologized.

After venting, Tuo Muxiong calmed down and asked Geri Lang to explain why such conditions were met.

After Ge Rilang finished his opinion, Tuo Muxiong's anger gradually subsided, and he carefully looked at the above conditions and considered the pros and cons.

After a long time, Tuo Muxiong slumped on the couch exhaustedly, waved his hands and said, "Get up, Foreign Minister, I don't blame you for this matter. Now that our strength has been greatly weakened, we really don't have much bargaining chips."

Geri Lang stood up and looked at Tuo Muxiong cautiously, "Your Majesty, according to the agreement, we need to complete the compensation amount in three years. That is to say, we still have three years to prepare. Your Majesty, we must In these three years, only by winning the Vientiane kingdoms can we fight against Tianhua."

"Three years!" Tuo Muxiong frowned, "Although the kingdoms of Vientiane are weak, they are a territory with a large population and a huge territory. Three years is really too short. The soldiers and horses that I can use now are at most Only [-] people can participate in the Southern Expedition, and they are simply unable to control Vientiane."

"Your Majesty, why don't we add another item in the negotiation with Tianhua, to redeem the hundreds of thousands of captured soldiers?" Geri Lang said hesitantly.

Tuo Muxiong's face couldn't help changing when he heard the words, and he stared at Geri Lang fiercely, "Foreign Minister, do you think that even if the emperor redeems those soldiers, will they still be loyal and respectful to the emperor?"

Geri Lang couldn't help but darken his face. At the beginning, the God Emperor abandoned those hundreds of thousands of soldiers and escaped. I'm afraid that now those people's hearts are already full of resentment.Even if it is redeemed, I am afraid that he will no longer want to serve the God Emperor.

More importantly, most of the tens of thousands of soldiers are warriors of various tribes on the plateau.Now captured, the strength of the various ministries has declined severely.

However, the emperor's headquarters did not suffer much loss, and their strength on the plateau rose instead of falling.This is also the reason why the Emperor of God is still not afraid of criticism from various ministries in the country after his fiasco in foreign wars.

However, if the tens of thousands of warriors are not redeemed, not only will the ministries resent the Emperor, but without these tens of thousands of soldiers, the strength of the Eternal Kingdom will be somewhat stretched.

After all, the eternal population is only about 200 million, and the loss of 10,000+ at once will involve hundreds of thousands of people, and the impact is not insignificant.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is just worried that someone in the country will take this opportunity to make trouble. When the time comes..." Geri Lang said worriedly.

"Then kill!" Tuo Muxiong shouted resolutely, with a murderous look, "The various ministries control the lands with rich water and grass in Eternity, and they control human, financial and military power. As for me, Eternity can never escape from the barrier of the plateau. Now the emperor is about to open up everything. In Xindi, we must not allow the ministries to become our control ribs. The Emperor hopes that Eternity can be like the Central Plains, where power is brought back to the center and the county is promoted, so that we can concentrate manpower and material resources and fight against Tianhua with all our strength."

"Your Majesty must not do it." Geri Lang was shocked, and quickly dissuaded him: "If you do this, you will be an enemy of all ministries, and even more so, you will be an enemy of the temple."

"Hmph, those so-called envoys in the temple are my eternal cancer." Tuo Muxiong cursed even more unscrupulously, "If it weren't for their obstruction and restraint, how could my eternity go to the plateau for thousands of years? Can't go on? How much population and wealth have we lost in the battle of the election for decades? In their eyes, I am just a piece of pawns, let them choose. However, the emperor has had enough, All this must change, or eternity will no longer be eternal."

"Your Majesty, this remark must not be heard by anyone. The current situation is very unfavorable to me forever, so don't make such useless words." Geri Lang tried hard to persuade.

Tuo Muxiong seemed to have vented what he had been holding back for a long time, and his mood improved, "Okay, what the foreign minister said, I will remember it, and this matter will naturally fall into the ears of you and me, and no one else will know. This time Although I feel that the negotiation between you and Tianhua is too harsh, it is also due to the situation and there is nothing I can do about it. I have agreed to these conditions."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Geri Lang hurriedly bowed.

"I hope that these few conditions can really hold back the Tianhua army for three years." Tuo Muxiong looked at him sternly, "At that time, the emperor will ask Tianhua back with interest! "
