Chapter 964 Request for Negotiation

Ali did not return to the space city with Chu Tianjiang and Zhang Xiaogang, but directly opened a subspace.

"Behydron has sent an emissary offering to meet with me in an intermediate star system and negotiate an end to the war." Arley said something roughly. "I offered to bring an entourage, and the messenger agreed, and told me the exact location of the star system."

"Are you going?"

Arley didn't say anything, or she hadn't made a decision yet.

"Perhaps, it's a trap." Zhang Xiaogang took a long breath and said, "First, we don't know about that galaxy, maybe it's already a black hole. ”

"This problem is easy to solve, we can send someone over first." Chu Tianjiang immediately said.

Zhang Xiaogang smiled reluctantly and said: "Even if it is not a black hole, Beshidron may not have gone alone, maybe he has already received the support of some family members, and what awaits Ali is a more powerful enemy, and it may even be an extremely powerful family member." ”

"Even so, you can let me go first, and after the situation is determined, let Ali pass."

Zhang Xiaogang shook his head slightly and said, "Actually, this is the biggest problem. ”

"What?"

"It's not just Ali who has to deal with Beshidron, it's you, too."

Chu Tianjiang was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhang Xiaogang with wide eyes.

"Lao Zhang is right, this is also what worries me the most." Ali sighed and said, "After the envoy of Beshidron made a request, I only tentatively asked if I could bring an entourage. As a result, Beshidron's messenger agreed without even thinking about it. Obviously, Beshidron had expected me to make such a request, but instead of making it directly, he first offered to meet me alone. ”

"This ......"

"If I bring it up, he will know it, and I will definitely take you there." Ali glanced at Chu Tianjiang and said, "Your strength is not much different from mine, except for me, only you can protect the second home." If I had gone alone, you would definitely stay here. ”

"You mean that Beshidron will use this opportunity to attack the Second Home?"

Ali nodded slightly, and said, "If we can end the war through negotiation, then the only way is for us to form an alliance with the Debarans." Previously, Lao Zhang had already mentioned that in the Ou Nowan, the people of Debarang had already suffered from the alliance, and they would not easily believe that peace could be achieved through the alliance. If the current situation continues, it will mean total destruction for both of us. Bershidron also wants to end the war, but not necessarily through negotiations. If he wants to end the war in the way we have just thought of, the first thing to do is to destroy the second home, and for that he has to try to divert us, or else it will be very difficult to succeed. ”

Chu Tianjiang nodded slightly, this is indeed a fact.

"Obviously, if we all go, the second home could be attacked at any time."

"What's more, we are more vulnerable than the Debarão people." Zhang Xiaogang sighed and said, "The essence of human civilization is all in the second home, as long as the second home is destroyed, even if the human civilization will not perish, it will collapse, and when the time comes, there is no need for the Debarang people to do it, and those weak and intelligent civilizations around will attack us, and even those intelligent civilizations in the alliance will become our enemies." ”

"In that case, there would be no need for us to negotiate with Beshidron."

Zhang Xiaogang sighed and didn't say anything.

Ali shook his head slightly and said, "The problem is, if Beshidron really wants to negotiate with us, and if he does figure out how to negotiate to end this war, this is the only chance. What's more, if Beshidron intends to compromise, we will be able to gain more than enough. ”

"No amount of benefits can compare to your safety."

"Lao Chu is right, you can't take risks."

Ali shook his head again and said, "We need victory, but we need to grow stronger through victory, rather than getting nothing after a hard battle." Obtaining the star system of the Ernohians can solve the problems we encounter, but obtaining the star system of the Debarans will make us stronger, and it will also allow us to start the next war as soon as possible, so that we can achieve a more brilliant victory. ”

"Ali ......"

This time, Zhang Xiaogang did not raise any objections.

"I have to go, just you can't."

"No!" Chu Tianjiang's attitude was very firm. "Even if it's a real negotiation, you can't go alone, otherwise there's a good chance that Beshidron will regret it."

Ali smiled reluctantly, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"If you decide you want to go, I have a solution." Zhang Xiaogang sighed and said, "First of all, let Lao Chu go to investigate the situation and determine whether Beshidron has the sincerity to negotiate." Even if Beshidron intends to end the war through negotiations, he will certainly first send an emissary to the negotiating site to confirm whether we are sincere in negotiating. After that, you go and have a face-to-face negotiation with Beshidron. ”

"The question is, who's going to guard the second home?"

Zhang Xiaogang sighed. "I will withdraw all the legions and strengthen the defenses of the Second Home. If we are attacked, we will at least be able to buy you time to get back. Of course, you have to always open the space bridge so that the people I send out can find you. ”

Ali frowned, thinking earnestly.

"As long as Beshidron arrives at the negotiation site, it is impossible for him to come and attack the second home. Of course, he may have united some of the creators. The problem is that if a more powerful creator is helping him, even if we are on guard, we will definitely not be able to defend the second home. ”

"The question is, what about the rest of the star systems if all the legions are withdrawn?" Chu Tianjiang glanced at Zhang Xiaogang. "If the Debarangs take advantage of this opportunity to seize other star systems, even if we hold on to our second home, we will suffer heavy losses and even completely lose our war potential."

"Don't worry, nothing like this will happen."

Chu Tianjiang was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhang Xiaogang in disbelief, and even Ali looked surprised.

"We've stored enough cores, and they're all stored in our second home, and even if we lose all the other star systems, we can use these stored cores to arm hundreds of legions and recapture those star systems in a few years."

"This ......"

"It's not that we don't have enough resources, but we don't have enough fighters, and we don't train fighters very quickly." Zhang Xiaogang sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to speed up the expansion of the army, but that the trained soldiers have many flaws. ”

"The problem is that it still doesn't ensure the safety of a second home."

"I started by saying that if this is a trap, then Beshidron must have the support of other creators, and stronger creators. With these creators, even if we know that this is a trap, it is impossible to stop them from destroying the second home. To put it another way, if Beshidron is confident enough to destroy the second home, there is no reason for him to negotiate to disperse us. ”

"Perhaps, he was trying to get what Ali had in him."

Zhang Xiaogang nodded slightly and said, "Even so, we are helpless. ”

"This ......"

"Lao Zhang is right, we can only hope that Beshidron is sincere in negotiating with us, and not using the negotiations to deal with us."

Chu Tianjiang sighed, he also figured it out.

"Anyway, it's an opportunity." Zhang Xiaogang smiled reluctantly and said, "Perhaps, the result is not as bad as we think now." ”

"Wouldn't it be better?"

"Why don't you think about it, what will he do if Beshidron thinks that he can't win a war, even if he destroys us, he won't get anything good?"

"This ......"

"Besides, what would Beshidron do if he didn't think he was Ali's opponent?"

Chu Tianjiang frowned, there was indeed such a possibility.

"Obviously, he doesn't want to die, he wants to live, and if he continues to fight, he will definitely be finished, even if it is with us. In the case of feeling that his strength is inferior to Ali, in order to survive, he has no choice but to use methods other than war to solve the contradiction between the two intelligent civilizations. Zhang Xiaogang smiled and said, "If it were me, I would have seized this opportunity that could not come again, issued a request for negotiation, and then used the strength that still had a certain amount of weight in my hand to obtain some benefits that could not be obtained through negotiation." Of course, the right to live is the most basic, and what he wants, obviously, there are other things. ”

"Autonomy?"

Zhang Xiaogang nodded and said, "If we destroy each other, he won't get anything." Perhaps, negotiation and compromise will cost him a lot, but at least he will be able to leave something. As long as he gets these things, he will accept the terms of the truce we offer. ”

"So, we're going to have to make compromises too?" Ali asked.

"In negotiation, you have to compromise with each other, and if it is only one side of the compromise, it is surrender." Zhang Xiaogang let out a long breath and said, "Of course, there is a bottom line for compromise. Beshidron offered to negotiate on his own initiative, so we had to lead the negotiations, so we couldn't make too many concessions. ”

"How much compromise can be made?"

"At best, put the Debarãns on an equal footing with the Arcadians. If Bershidron is not satisfied, at most it will only increase the autonomy of the Debarans. To put it simply, we do not ask the Debarão to join the Alliance, but we must disarm the Debarão. ”

Ali nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Zhang Xiaogang meant.

"Well, let's talk about it." Zhang Xiaogang smiled and said, "Let's talk, you guys will go over, maybe this war will end soon." ”
