Wait until just after 10 a.m. to receive the latest news.

Prime Minister Bun Wei has officially issued a surrender statement through public channels, and has also ordered all troops to immediately stop resisting and fighting.

It's just that there is still no news from the imperial capital.

There has always been a great deal of disagreement within the empire over whether or not to accept the surrender of the Eastern Sasaki.

A few months ago, it was decided to send troops to capture Changwai Harbor, and Niu Man and Zesan went to form a regime, which was actually the result of this disagreement. Next, the empire established diplomatic relations with the Nagawei regime, and claimed that there was a civil war between the two regimes in the Sagi homeland, which was also related to this.

Fundamentally, it is to get out of the narrowness and avoid falling into this quagmire of tens of millions of inhabitants.

Not to mention how many troops were needed to capture the entire territory of the Narrows, it was a big trouble to maintain the occupation of the Narrows during the Great War.

Otherwise, the Imperial Kingdom would have been defeated a few months earlier.

In addition, there is another speculation about the White Stop War.

Perhaps, Xue Yuanzheng had already received the news that the Eastern Sayi regime was about to surrender, or had a similar judgment, so he would arrange a combat mission for Bai Zhizhan to attack Guandao within the year. The point is that Bai Zhizhan used this as an excuse to leave the imperial capital, just to avoid the impending storm.

If anything, I'm afraid that most people are not willing to accept the surrender of Dongshayi.

It's also very simple, there are tens of millions of people in the Imperial Empire, and not long ago, the Imperial Navy armed with tens of millions of Narrows attacked the Imperial Navy.

Besides, what does the Western Sasa regime do?

At the beginning, Niu Man and Ze San were asked to go to Chang Wai to establish the Western Sayi regime, and Xue Yuanzheng's rhetoric to the people was to make the empire withdraw from the Sayi Imperial State.

In that case, why return to the Sasai Imperial Kingdom?

If the Eastern Sayi regime had not surrendered, it would have made sense, after all, the war in the Sayi Imperial State had been consuming the resources of the empire, especially weapons and ammunition. But now, the Eastern Narrows regime has surrendered, and the Western Narrows regime has taken over, where does the empire need to come forward?

Those tens of millions of refugees?

If you are not a citizen of the empire, what does it have to do with the empire?

Of course, this is just angry talk.

In any case, the surrender of the Sayoi Imperial State must be accepted.

Just one reason.

If you refuse, it means fighting to the death with all enemies, or to be precise, all hostile countries will fight to the death with the Empire!

Can an empire defeat the whole world?

How can it be?

Is it because of face or any other reason that millions, or even tens of millions, of soldiers will be sent to death!?

Also, how long will it take to defeat all enemy nations?

It will take at least ten years, or even twenty years, to push it down like this!

Although the empire has long been prepared to take on the whole world alone, and does not expect to fight with other powers, the victory it strives for is not that it does not accept the surrender of the enemy country.

As soon as the enemy country declares its surrender, the empire has already won!

Fight to the death against all the enemies, and the Empire will definitely not be able to achieve final victory.

In history, there are lessons from the past.

Locke Empire.

At the beginning, the Locke Empire almost unified the entire Western Continent, but it turned out to be greedy and fell in front of the last land enemy country.

Even if you look further, the powerful Qin Empire was only able to complete the great cause of unification.

The Liangxia Empire has been less than a hundred years so far!

From another point of view, accepting the surrender of the Narrow Imperial State may still be an opportunity to open up the situation.

That's right, it's an opportunity to take advantage of.

By noon, there was no new news.

Bai Zhizhan didn't delay much longer, first called the airport, and then rushed over with Zhou Yongtao.

This time, he did not call Liu Changxun at the airport, but directly got on the plane dedicated to royals.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Bai Zhizhan returned to the imperial capital.

By the time he arrived at the command of the Navy, it was already evening.

It must have been after Bai Zhizhan left, Zhao Yu called and told Liu Changxun, so Liu Changxun was waiting for Bai Zhizhan, and then took him to the Shoufu Mansion.

Bai Zhizhan was not mistaken, Xue Yuanzheng was trying to convince the other members of the wartime cabinet.

Although the head of the cabinet had the power to make decisions in wartime, according to the imperial system, important matters such as accepting the surrender of the enemy country had to be approved by the emperor. The key point is that the instrument of surrender must be submitted to the Privy Council in the name of the Cabinet, which requires the support of more than half of the ministers.

Fortunately, Xue Yuanzheng's efforts were not in vain.

When Bai Zhizhan left Puzhou by plane, Xue Yuanzheng persuaded the last two ministers and won more than two-thirds of the support.

He went to the Privy Council in the afternoon.

As a result, when Liu Changxun arrived at the Shoufu Mansion with Bai Zhizhan and Zhou Yongtao, Xue Yuanzheng had not yet returned.

Actually, it didn't take long.

Before 8 o'clock in the evening, Xue Yuanzheng returned.

Probably because he had been busy all the time, he didn't even bother with dinner, so after Xue Yuanzheng came back, the life secretary immediately sent dinner.

Bai Zhizhan didn't eat dinner, and he didn't even take care of lunch.

While having dinner, Bai Zhizhan read the surrender announcement brought back by Xue Yuanzheng.

Because it was the result of a compromise, that is, in order to persuade other cabinet ministers, it was not only the Liangxia Empire that came forward to accept the surrender of the Eastern Sayi regime, but also the Western Sagi regime, and the Western Sagi regime was the mainstay. The reason given for this is that the Liang Xia Empire had already recognized the Western Sayi regime and signed an alliance treaty with the Western Sayi regime, so the war that took place in the Sagi itself was actually a civil war in the Sagi Empire.

The surrender of the Eastern Sasa regime was the end of the civil war.

The greatest advantage of this is that there is no need to be responsible for the humanitarian catastrophe of the Narrow Empire.

Humanitarian aid?

Of course there must be, but how much to give depends on the mood, or the ability of the empire, there must not be too much, and there is no way to cover everything.

Xue Yuanzheng brought back the first draft, which had to be revised and polished.

Unsurprisingly, released tomorrow morning.

In addition, it is a matter of taking the surrender ceremony.

According to Xue Yuanzheng's meaning, first of all, the Western Sayi regime had to take over the Eastern Sayi army, and it was not required to control the entire territory, but at least it had to occupy the imperial capital and the eastern imperial capital.

The key, of course, is to control the Narrow Emperor.

The reason is simple: the narrow emperor is a symbol of the legitimacy of the regime.

Looking at the whole world, I am afraid that there is only one country, the Imperial Family, which has lasted for more than 2,000 years, and no matter how the regime changes, it has not changed.

This is also one of the main reasons why the Imperial Kingdom of Saoyi is called the "Imperial State".

According to Xue Yuanzheng's estimate, it will not be until next month at the earliest, when the National Guard Forces in Western Sayi can control the situation, and then talk about the official surrender.

Although it was dominated by the Western Narrows, the empire certainly had to participate.

In addition, a representative site was chosen to sign the instrument of surrender.

According to Xue Yuanzheng's meaning, it is best to be on a battleship, and it must be a battleship, and the location is best in Dongdu Bay, and it can be considered to be headed by army generals.

In any case, the later wars were almost always undertaken by the army.

As for the candidate, Li Yunxiang recommended by Xue Yuanzheng.

In addition, you have to count the eldest prince Li Qing.

On the navy's side, it was either Bai Zhizhan or Liu Xiangzhen, and Xue Yuanzheng and Liu Changxun were inclined to give this honor to Bai Zhizhan.

Quite simply, in the decisive naval battles that defeated the Sagai Navy, it was the Battle of Hakuzhi that played the main role.

It's just that Bai Zhizhan hurriedly returned to the imperial capital, not to rush back to join in the fun, not to worry that Liu Xiangzhen would be sent to surrender on behalf of the navy, but for a more important matter.
