Chapter 262: Hope for Peace

The news of the defeat of the combined fleet of the navies of Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi soon spread to the other six countries of the nine-nation military alliance, and immediately caused an uproar in these six countries.

In the palace of Nasya City, the capital of the Monia Empire, the emperor of the Monia Empire, Ippoli, sighed and said to Prime Minister Tolicka: "I didn't expect that the combined fleet formed by the navies of Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi would be defeated by the Tang Empire so easily, and all the warships of our Monia Royal Navy must be equipped with more anti-aircraft weapons, otherwise we will encounter the bombers of the Tang Air Force that can carry out dive bombing, and our Monia Royal Navy will also be bombed and suffer heavy losses." ”

Prime Minister Toliczka sighed and said: "Originally, our Monia Royal Navy was ready to form a huge combined fleet with the Ruierland Navy, the Herssel Navy, and the Revelli Navy, and go to the Gronin Port of the Gisk Empire to rescue the Gisk Navy and the Orensa Navy trapped there, and seize control of the Wessel Strait, so that our four land forces can enter the territory of the Gisk Empire and the Orensa Empire, and now the combined fleet of the navies of Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi is easily defeated by the Tang Empire. There is no need to form a four-nation combined fleet of the Royal Monia Navy, the Ruierland Navy, the Herssel Navy, and the Revelli Navy. ”

Emperor Ipppoli said with some hesitation on his face: "But if we don't rescue the Gisk Navy and the Orensa Navy, and don't send a large number of additional army troops to these two countries, the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire will probably not be able to hold on, and the emperors of these two countries have each sent me more than a dozen telegrams asking for help." ”

Prime Minister Toliczka shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the minister also hopes to send the troops of our Monia Royal Army to the territory of the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire, the problem is that the Tang Navy has cut off the sea passage of these two countries, and it is a very difficult thing to help these two countries open the sea channel, and if you don't make it, the main force of our Monia Royal Navy will have to pay for it." ”

Emperor Ipppoli has always attached great importance to money, and can be called a miser, but at present, most of the funds for the construction of the capital ships of the Monia Royal Navy come from the funds of the Monia royal family, and when Emperor Ipppoli heard that he went to rescue the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy, it is likely to lose the main force of the Monia Royal Navy, and immediately sighed and said: "It seems that I can only express regret to the two emperors of the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire." ”

After a pause, Emperor Ippoli asked Prime Minister Tolichka again: "Prime Minister, what do you think of this war between the Nine Nations Military Alliance and the Tang Empire now?" What do you think we should do next for the Monia Empire? ”

Prime Minister Toliczka pondered for a while and said: "Your Majesty, our Monia Empire is located on the northern continent, and the flames of this war are temporarily impossible to burn to the mainland of our Monia Empire, and the military strength shown by the Tang Empire is so strong, so the minister feels that our Monia Empire might as well wait and see the changes for a while, if the war develops in a favorable direction for the Nine Nations Military Alliance, it will not be too late for our Monia Empire to send troops, once the war develops in a favorable direction for the Tang Empire, Then we, the Monia Empire, had better withdraw as soon as possible. ”

In the palace of Wendell City, the capital of the Gisk Empire, Emperor Lazaric said to Prime Minister Maxim with a gloomy face: "Just now, the emperor of the Monia Empire sent me a telegram, clearly telling me that it is impossible for the main naval force of the Monia Empire to go to Groning Port to rescue the main force of our Royal Navy of Gisk and the main force of the Orenza Navy, so that the army units of the Monia Empire, as well as the army forces of the Ryerland Empire, the Kingdom of Hessel and the Kingdom of Revelli, It will be impossible to enter the territory of our Jisk Empire and the Orenza Empire, which also means that our Jisk Empire can still rely on its own strength to resist the invasion of the Tang Empire. ”

Prime Minister Maxim said bitterly: "Your Majesty, the combat effectiveness of the Tang Army is too strong, and with the cooperation of the Tang Air Force, the resistance of our army of the Jisk Empire is too difficult, and the losses are even more shocking. ”

Emperor Lazarik suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Prime Minister, what do you think of our peace with the Tang Empire?" ”

Emperor Lazarik's words did not surprise Prime Minister Maxim, who groaned and said: "Although Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi promised to launch an active attack on the western border area of the Tang Empire in early October to relieve the pressure on our Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire, according to the information obtained by our Gisk intelligence department, the current Tang Army has ten guard divisions, twenty-four armored divisions, In addition to the more than 70 million regular troops of 600 field divisions and 400 garrison divisions, 2,000 provisional infantry divisions with an establishment of 50,000 have now been reorganized. ”

After a pause, Prime Minister Maxim continued: "Even if Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi can attack the western border areas of the Tang Empire, the Tang Empire will have enough troops to deal with the attack of the armies of Yingluopa, Sharad, and Noomi, and there is no need to transfer army troops from the territory of our Gisk Empire and the territory of the Orenza Empire to the western border area, so the upcoming offensive of Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi will probably not be able to reduce the pressure on our Gisk Empire. The minister felt that peace talks with the Tang Empire were also a way out, and he couldn't really wipe out all the foundations of our Jisk Empire. ”

Hearing that Prime Minister Maxim agreed to his suggestion, Emperor Lazarik let out a long breath, "I actually don't want to admit defeat to the Tang Empire, but after the start of this war, the strength shown by the Tang Empire is no longer something that our Jisk Empire can resist alone, and the other countries of the Nine Nations Military Alliance can't give our Jisk Empire any strong support, and I am also forced to prepare to make peace with the Tang Empire, and I don't know if the Tang Empire will agree." ”

Prime Minister Maxim smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, this is also a matter of no choice, the minister agrees in his heart and is not willing to admit defeat to the Tang Empire, as for whether the Tang Empire will agree, the minister is very optimistic, but the Tang Empire will definitely put forward some very harsh armistice conditions this time, and it is even likely to ask our Jisk Empire to cede a part of the land." ”

Hearing Prime Minister Maxim mention the issue of ceding land, the corners of Emperor Lazarik's mouth couldn't help twitching, "Try to lower the armistice conditions of the Tang Empire, if there is really no way, it is okay to cede a small part of the country, in addition, I feel that we can unite with the Orenza Empire to negotiate an armistice with the Tang Empire, presumably the Orenza Empire will also be very willing." ”

In the royal palace of Cachino City, the capital of the Orensa Empire, the emperor of the Orensa Empire, Modest, looked at several telegrams on the table in front of him, and said to Prime Minister Nikifore with a wry smile: "Now the Monia Empire, the Rillland Empire, the Hessel Kingdom and the Revelli Kingdom have all sent telegrams, making it clear that they cannot send the main naval force to the Gronin port of the Gisk Empire to rescue our main forces of the Royal Navy of Orenza and the Gisk Navy, the emperor of the Gisk Empire, He sent me a telegram hoping to negotiate peace with the Tang Empire together with our Orenza Empire. ”

Prime Minister Nikifore said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, now the Tang Army that has invaded the territory of our Orenza Empire has already hit Magna City, once Magna City is lost, the Tang Army on this road can go straight to the capital Cachino City, if our Orenza Empire does not negotiate peace with the Tang Empire, then we must now consider the matter of moving the capital." ”

Emperor Modest's brows furrowed slightly, "Our Royal Army of Orenza has gathered a full 1.2 million troops in Magna City, and has also armed more than 1 million civilians, can't we still hold Magna City?" ”

Prime Minister Nikki Fore shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the strong combat effectiveness and huge strength of the Tang Army are not talked about for the time being, but the Tang Army has the cooperation of the Tang Air Force, although we have gathered enough troops in Magna City, but we are not sure whether we can hold Magna City and how long we can hold it." ”

Emperor Modest said with some reluctance: "If peace talks are held with the Tang Empire now, the Tang Empire will definitely put forward some very harsh conditions, and our Orenza Empire will not be able to avoid paying compensation for land cession." ”

Prime Minister Nikifore sighed and said: "Your Majesty, it is strange that the minister only wanted to seek revenge on the Tang Empire, so he persuaded His Majesty to agree to let our Orenza Empire join the Nine Nations Military Alliance, but I didn't expect that the situation would become so bad in less than two months after the war began. ”

Emperor Modest waved his hand and said: "I can't blame the prime minister for joining the Nine Nations Military Alliance, I and other ministers also hoped to seek revenge from the Tang Empire, who would have thought that the military strength of the Tang Empire would develop so terrifyingly, even the combined fleet formed by the navies of Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi could be easily defeated by the Tang Empire." ”

Prime Minister Nikifore couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard these words from Emperor Modest, who had strongly advocated that the Orenza Empire join the Nine Nations Military Alliance.

Prime Minister Niki Fore then asked, "Your Majesty, what about peace talks with the Tang Empire?" ”

Emperor Modex said bitterly: "Since the Gisk Empire can't stand it, then our Orenza Empire should not insist on it, and the negotiation will be more important to the Prime Minister, so that our Orenza Empire will pay less as much as possible." ”

On September 20, 3016 in the Tang calendar, the Jisk Empire and the Orenza Empire simultaneously sent a request to the Tang Empire for an armistice negotiation, and the Tang Empire quickly responded and was willing to negotiate with Jisk and Orenza.

"Bang-" Penelope, the emperor of the British Empire, slammed his fist on the table in front of him, and then said angrily to Prime Minister Auguste: "These cowards! It's only been less than two months since the war began, and two countries are about to surrender to the Tang Empire, don't the Gisk Empire and the Orensa Empire know that the armies of our Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi will launch an attack on the western border areas of the Tang Empire in early October? ”

Prime Minister August sighed and said: "Your Majesty is angry, the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire may really be a little unbearable, according to the information obtained by our Yingluoba intelligence department, the Gisk Empire and the Orensa Empire have lost more than five million land forces since the start of the war, and the civilian armed forces have also lost millions each, and the air forces of the two countries have almost been wiped out, plus the reinforcements of Monia, Rirland, Hessel, and Revelli cannot enter the territory of the two countries, It is not surprising that the Jisk Empire and the Orenza Empire chose to sue for peace with the Tang Empire at this time, and if it drags on, the two countries may not even be able to keep their capitals. ”

Emperor Penelope was still angry and said: "At the beginning, our nine countries formed a military alliance, the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire were all sworn to fight with the Tang Empire to the end, and now only encountering some difficulties, these two countries are ready to choose to submit to the Tang Empire, which will affect the overall strategic deployment of our nine countries military alliance!" ”

The reason why Emperor Penelope was so angry about the matter of the Jisk Empire and the Orenza Empire suing for peace with the Tang Empire was because once the Gisk Empire, the Orenza Empire and the Tang Empire reached an armistice agreement, the part of the Tang Navy that was originally stranded in the Wessel Strait was completely liberated, and the coastal areas of the Yingluoba Empire might be blocked by the Tang Navy again.

Prime Minister August said gloomily: "Your Majesty, we can't stop the armistice negotiations between the Gisk Empire, the Orensa Empire and the Tang Empire, unless the four countries of Monia, Ryerland, Hessel, and Revelli can act immediately." ”

Emperor Penelope sneered, "The four kingdoms of Monia, Rillland, Herssel, and Revelli are even more cowardly, seeing that the combined fleet formed by the navies of our three countries, Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi has failed, the four of them will never easily send the main naval force to the Wessel Strait." ”

Prime Minister August hesitated for a moment at this time and said: "Your Majesty, should we Yingluoba Empire also make some plans, if the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire withdraw from the Nine Nations Military Alliance, it is likely to cause a series of reactions." ”

Emperor Penelope was silent for a moment and said, "Don't worry, anyway, between our Yingluoba Empire and the Tang Empire, there is still the Sharad Empire and the Noomi Empire!" ”
