Chapter Forty-Six: The Hard-Headed Purple Moon Empire

Su Yi and Wang Chengliang, who led the independent fleet back to Kangshan Port, were talking on the dock when a guard hurriedly walked up to Su Yi and handed Su Yi a telegram.

Su Yi took the telegram and looked at it, the smile on his face disappeared immediately, and then he handed the telegram to Wang Chengliang with an expressionless face.

After Wang Chengliang read the content of the telegram, he frowned and said: "Dashuai, the Cangyu Empire has even accepted such harsh armistice conditions from the Sharad Empire, which is simply the rhythm of the country's destruction. ”

It turned out that this telegram was sent to Su Yi by the Prime Minister's Office of the Liuyun Empire, and it was the armistice treaty just signed between the Cangyu Empire and the Sharad Empire, and its content could be said to be very harsh to the Cangyu Empire.

Su Yi sighed and said: "The millions of troops of the Sharad Empire have already arrived at Cangyu City, the capital of the Cangyu Empire, and it is not surprising that the Cangyu Empire has signed such harsh truce conditions, but after the Cangyu Empire withdraws from the Eastern Four Nations Alliance, I am worried that the Heavenly Star Empire and the Purple Moon Empire will not be able to hold on, and if we don't get this war between the four eastern countries and the three major powers, it will be over." ”

After the Cangyu Empire and the Sharad Empire secretly launched armistice negotiations in Merseca, the capital of the Yingluoba Empire, the Cangyu Empire fought for the five-point armistice conditions proposed by the Sharad Empire, hoping to lower the conditions offered by the Sharad Empire.

However, the concessions made by the Sharad Empire were very limited, and the military operations of the Sharad Empire were not terminated by negotiations, and soon several elite legions of the Sharad Empire's army reached the outskirts of Cangyu City.

In the end, under the instruction of the Emperor of the Cangyu Empire, Zhao Zhi, the ambassador of the Cangyu Empire to the Yingluoba Empire, signed an unusually harsh armistice agreement with tears in his eyes.

On this armistice agreement, in addition to reducing the war indemnity from 5 billion taels of silver to 3 billion taels of silver, the other four armistice conditions proposed by the Sharad Empire were all accepted by the Cangyu Empire.

Because the treasury of the Cangyu Empire no longer has much money, so three billion taels of silver, the Cangyu Empire will pay it off in twenty years, plus interest, in fact, in the end, the silver that the Cangyu Empire compensated to the Sharad Empire is even more than five billion taels.

According to the provisions of the armistice agreement, the Cangyu Empire also needed to compensate the navy of the Sharad Empire with two dreadnought battleships, eight former dreadnought battleships, six large armored cruisers, six medium armored cruisers, twelve light cruisers and twelve destroyers of its navy, to offset the 400 million taels of silver in the down payment of war reparations.

Wang Chengliang then frowned even tighter and said: "Great Marshal, if the Celestial Star Empire, the Purple Moon Empire, and the Liuyun Empire also admit defeat, then the situation of our Su family army is likely to be a little bad, I am worried that the Liuyun Empire, and even the Celestial Star Empire, will betray the interests of our Su family army to the three major powers." ”

Su Yi pondered for a while and said: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and the interests of our Su family army are not something that anyone can betray!" ”

In the palace of Tianxing City, the capital of the Celestial Star Empire, Emperor Song Xuan said to Prime Minister Huang Kun with a gloomy face: "I never thought that it was the Cangyu Empire that was the first to admit defeat, it seems that there is no way to reverse the defeat in this war." ”

Prime Minister Huang Kun smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the armistice conditions that the Gisk Empire sent to us are also quite harsh, almost a copy of the armistice agreement between Cangyu and Sharad, and we are also required to compensate Su Yi's fleet to the navy of the Jisk Empire to offset part of the war reparations." ”

The corners of Emperor Song Xuan's mouth twitched, "Prime Minister, can our Celestial Star Empire still hold on?" ”

The armistice conditions given by the Jisk Empire to the Celestial Star Empire, except for the difference in the amount of war indemnity and the size of the restricted army, were exactly the same as the armistice entente of the Cangyu Empire and the Sharad Empire, which made Emperor Song Xuan really unwilling to sign such a humiliating treaty.

Prime Minister Huang Kun hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, although the loss of our Celestial Star Empire's army has exceeded three and a half million, but after a large-scale expansion, the total strength of our Celestial Star Empire's army is still maintained at more than five million. ”

Emperor Song sighed and said, "Then let's talk to the Jisk Empire!" However, the previous armistice conditions of the Jisk Empire will never be accepted by me, and as for Su Yi's fleet, it is not something that our Celestial Star Empire can say! ”

The location of the four major empires in the east is similar to a misplaced "Tian" shape, the Cangyu Empire is located in the upper left corner, the Liuyun Empire is located in the upper right corner, the Purple Moon Empire is located in the lower left corner, and the Celestial Star Empire is located in the lower right corner, the Purple Moon Empire and the Celestial Star Empire are all adjacent to the southern part of the Liuyun Empire, while the Celestial Star Empire has no territorial contact with the Cangyu Empire.

Therefore, after the Cangyu Empire signed an armistice agreement with the Sharad Empire, although it had a great impact on the Celestial Star Empire, the army of the Sharad Empire still could not directly enter the Celestial Star Empire, which made the Celestial Star Empire still have some confidence to refuse in the face of the harsh conditions of the Jisk Empire.

After the Cangyu Empire signed an armistice agreement with the Sharad Empire, the millions of Sharad Empire troops in the Cangyu Empire can attack the Liuyun Empire to the east and the Purple Moon Empire to the south, of course, the situation in the Purple Moon Empire will become more crisis, after all, the Purple Moon Empire has been beaten very badly by the Orenza Empire.

In the palace of Suisheng City, the capital of the Purple Moon Empire, Prime Minister Guo Xian smiled bitterly and said to the empress Ouyang Xue, who had just ascended the throne: "Your Majesty, the Cangyu Empire has surrendered to the Sharad Empire, and the remaining 500,000 or so troops of the Liuyun Empire are also preparing to return to the Liuyun Empire to prepare for a possible attack by the Sharad Empire, and the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable to our Purple Moon Empire." ”

Ouyang Xue is the first empress of the Purple Moon Empire, but Ouyang Xue, who is only nineteen years old, has no choice but to take the position of this empress.

Ouyang Qi, the previous emperor of the Purple Moon Empire, that is, Ouyang Xue's father, was unfortunately killed in the defense of Purple Moon City more than a month ago, and before Emperor Ouyang Qi died, Emperor Ouyang Qi's five sons had all died on the battlefield.

Compared with the Cangyu Empire, which has already admitted defeat to the Salad Empire, the backbone of the Purple Moon Empire can be described as very hard, two months ago, the army of the Orenza Empire hit the Purple Moon Empire's capital Purple Moon City, but the Emperor of the Purple Moon Empire, Ouyang Qi, did not choose to give in to the Orenza Empire, but personally led the soldiers and civilians of Purple Moon City to launch a battle to defend Purple Moon City.

Even after Emperor Ouyang Qi and all the princes were killed, the Orenza Empire still did not completely capture Purple Moon City, and now the other two princesses of the royal family, Ouyang Qian and Ouyang Wan, are still in Purple Moon City, leading the troops to fight with the Orenza Empire's army in the street battles for every inch of land, so far, the Purple Moon Empire has lost more than 900,000 people in the capital Purple Moon City.

At the beginning, after the death of Emperor Ouyang Qi, the royal family had no men, and some people originally suggested finding someone from the imperial family to inherit the throne, but with the support of Prime Minister Guo Xian, the queen and the two concubines, the eldest princess Ouyang Xue became the first empress of the Purple Moon Empire, and the other two princesses of the royal family became the generals who led the troops.

Immediately, Empress Ouyang Xue accompanied the capital Suisheng City and delivered a speech to the whole country through the radio to the last soldier, revealing the determination of the Purple Moon Empire to never give in to the invaders.
