Chapter 263: Seizure by force
The other seven countries of the Nine-Power Military Alliance, when they learned that the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire were going to negotiate an armistice with the Tang Empire, immediately went through various channels, hoping that the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire would give up this move.
However, the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire made it clear to the other seven countries that unless the navies of Monia, Rirland, Hessel, and Revelli could immediately form a combined fleet and rush to the Gross Harbor of the Gisk Empire, rescue the Grosk Navy and the Orenza Navy trapped in the Gross Harbor, seize control of the Wessel Strait, and allow the four countries to join the battlefield of the Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire, otherwise the two countries could only sue for peace with the Tang Empire.
After the combined fleet of the Angloba, Sharad, and Noomi navies was defeated by the Datang Navy, Monia, Rillland, Hessel, and Revelli were unwilling to send their main naval forces to touch the powerful Datang Navy.
Yingluoba, Sharad, and Noomi had no choice but to watch helplessly, and Gisk and Orenza launched armistice negotiations with the Tang Empire.
Although the Tang Empire expressed its willingness to negotiate with Gisk and Orenza, the offensive of the Tang Empire's troops in the territory of the two countries did not stop, and according to the Tang Empire, military operations in Gisk and Orenza could only be temporarily stopped after negotiations began.
In order to stop the offensive of the Tang Empire as soon as possible, Maxim, the prime minister of the Jisk Empire, and Nikifor, the prime minister of the Orenza Empire, took modified transport planes and soon flew to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Empire.
On the morning of September 23, 3016 in the Tang calendar, at the Prime Minister's Office in Chang'an City, the Tang Empire launched the first armistice negotiations with Jisk and Orenza, and the Tang Empire sent negotiators headed by Xu Haoming, the prime minister of the Tang Empire.
As soon as the negotiations began, Prime Minister Maxim of the Gisk Empire said impatiently: "Dear Premier Xu Haoming, since our two sides have started armistice negotiations, then please also ask the troops of the Tang Empire to stop military operations in the territory of our Gisk Empire and the Orenza Empire. ”
Xu Haoming smiled slightly and said: "Originally, according to the intention of His Majesty the Emperor of our Tang Empire, as long as the two of us start negotiations, then the troops of our Tang Empire in the territory of your two countries will temporarily stop all military operations, but our intelligence department of the Tang Empire has obtained accurate information, and your Jisk Empire and Orenza Empire have sent negotiators to Chang'an City while still expanding the scale of the army, which makes our Tang Empire have to think, The two of you are negotiating with our Tang Empire in order to delay time in order to form more land forces to continue fighting with the armies of our Tang Empire. ”
Maxim, the Prime Minister of the Gisk Empire, and Nikifor, the Prime Minister of the Orenza Empire, glanced at each other, and both had some angry looks on their faces.
Niki Fuor, the Prime Minister of the Orenza Empire, said in a deep voice: "Premier Xu Haoming, it is precisely because your Tang Empire is unwilling to stop military operations that our Orenza Empire and the Jisk Empire are forced to continue to form more land forces, and your Tang Empire is worried that our two countries are negotiating in order to delay time in order to form more army units and continue to fight with your Tang Empire, and our two countries are also worried that your Tang Empire is willing to negotiate an armistice, also to gain time, In order to put more army units and warplanes into our two countries. ”
Xu Haoming shrugged his shoulders and said: "It seems that both of us lack trust in each other, so it is better to wait for the two of us to reach an armistice agreement, and the military operations of our Tang Empire in your two countries will naturally stop." ”
Nikifor, the Prime Minister of the Orenza Empire, wanted to say something, but Maxim, the Prime Minister of the Gisk Empire, spoke first, "Premier Xu Haoming, you Tang Empire don't know what conditions you have for stopping this war between the two sides?" ”
Nikifor, the Prime Minister of the Orenza Empire, heard Maxim, the Prime Minister of the Gisk Empire, mention the terms of the armistice, and he was originally going to fight for the Tang Empire to stop military operations first, so he did not say anything more.
Xu Haoming immediately opened a folder in front of him, took out two pieces of paper from it, and handed them to Nikifor, the Prime Minister of the Orenza Empire, and Maxim, the Prime Minister of the Jisk Empire, respectively, "Two Prime Ministers, the armistice conditions of our Tang Empire are all above. ”
Nikifor, the prime minister of the Orenza Empire, and Maxim, the prime minister of the Gisk Empire, hurriedly took the paper handed over by Xu Haoming, and carefully read the armistice conditions proposed by the Tang Empire, and the more they looked at them, the more ugly their faces became.
There are four main armistice conditions given by the Tang Empire to the Gisk Empire, the first point is that the Gisk Empire must announce its withdrawal from the Nine-Power Military Alliance and recognize the Jisk Empire as the defeated side of the war.
The second point is that the Jisk Empire compensates the Tang Empire for its military expenditure of 50 billion Tang Yuan, which can only be paid in the currencies of the Tang Empire, the Yingluoba Empire, the Sharad Empire, the Noomi Empire and the Monia Empire, or with the equivalent of gold and silver.
The third point is that the Gisk Empire ceded the land north of the Uniri River to the Tang Empire, and the Gisk people living north of the Uniri River could choose to join the Tang Empire or migrate to the Gisk Empire south of the Uniri River according to their own wishes.
The land area of the Gisk Empire is about 12 million square kilometers, with 28 states, the Uniri River is the longest river in the Gisk Empire, and to the north of the Uniri River, there are 11 states of the Gisk Empire, with an area of about 5 million square kilometers.
The fourth point is that the Jisk Navy must deliver the remaining twenty-nine super dreadnought battleships and twenty-three battle cruisers to the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire.
The Tang Empire's armistice conditions for the Orenza Empire were similar, and the Orenza Empire was also required to compensate the Tang Empire for 50 billion Tang Yuan in military expenses, cede about four million square kilometers of land north of the Chaprar Mountains of the Orenza Empire, and compensate the remaining 26 super dreadnought battleships and 24 battle cruisers of the Orenza Navy to the Tang Royal Navy.
The territory of the Orenza Empire is about 10 million square kilometers, with twenty-two states, and there are nine states of the Orenza Empire north of the Chaprar Mountains, and the army of the Tang Empire has captured almost two-thirds of the area north of the Chapral Mountains.
After reading the armistice conditions given to the Jisk Empire by the Tang Empire, Maxim, the prime minister of the Jisk Empire, angrily slapped the paper in his hand on the table, "Premier Xu Haoming, the armistice conditions of your Datang Empire are inevitably too harsh, it is simply a forcible seizure, not to mention the sky-high war indemnity of 50 billion Tang Yuan, your Datang Empire actually asked our Jisk Empire to cede a small half of the territory at once, you must know that north of the Uniri River, there are still many areas controlled by our Jisk army!" ”
Xu Haoming said indifferently: "Then the negotiations between our two countries can wait a little longer, and when the army of our Tang Empire occupies the area north of the Uniri River, our two countries will start negotiations again." ”
Xu Haoming's words, the angry Prime Minister of the Jisk Empire Maxim really wanted to shoot the case and leave, but Maxim knew in his heart that the Jisk Empire was really a little unbearable, due to the bombing of the Tang Air Force, several major arsenals of the Jisk Empire have been unable to produce normally, so that the Jisk Royal Army on the front line has been in short supply of ammunition, if the army of the Tang Empire continues to fight, it is likely that it will not take more than a month for the Tang Army to cross the Uniri River and set foot in the area south of the Uniri River.
Maxim, the Prime Minister of the Jisk Empire, suppressed his anger and said: "Premier Xu Haoming, for the sake of peace between our two countries, our Jisk Empire is willing to negotiate on the basis of this armistice condition, but I hope that the Tang Empire can make some concessions." ”
Nikifor, the prime minister of the Orenza Empire, originally wanted to be tough, but seeing that even Maxim, the prime minister of the Gisk Empire, had not hardened, Nikifore gave up the idea of being tough, after all, the situation in the Orenza Empire was even worse than that of the Gisk Empire, and now the army of the Tang Empire has hit the city of Magna with its back to the Chaprar Mountains, once Magna City is lost, then the army of the Tang Empire can cross the Chaprar Mountains and approach Cachino City, the capital of the Orenza Empire.
Nikifore then said in a deep voice: "Premier Xu Haoming, we in the Orenza Empire can also negotiate on the basis of this armistice condition, but there are some armistice conditions that must be changed. ”
After three days of verbal battles over the terms of the armistice, the representatives of the three countries finally reached an agreement.
In the imperial palace of Wendell City, the capital of the Gisk Empire, Emperor Lazarik asked a dozen ministers with a gloomy face, "What do you think of this armistice agreement?" To sign or not to sign our Gisk Empire? ”
After three days of bargaining, Maxim, the prime minister of the Gisk Empire, only reduced the war reparations to 30 billion Tang Yuan, and the Gisk Empire needs to pay it off in ten years, and there are still 8 billion Tang Yuan in interest during the ten years, in addition, the Jisk Navy can keep 19 super dreadnought battleships and 13 battle cruisers, and the remaining 10 super dreadnought battleships and 10 battle cruisers must be compensated to the Tang Royal Navy.
Nazaru, the Minister of Finance of the Jisk Empire, said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, now our Jisk Empire really can't hold on, the other seven countries of the Nine Nations Military Alliance are simply unable to support our Jisk Empire, continue to fight, maybe the entire Jisk Empire will cease to exist, although the armistice conditions of the Tang Empire are very harsh, but at least our Jisk Empire can still maintain its vitality." ”
As Nazaru, who controls the financial power of the Gisk Empire, can also be regarded as the confidant of Emperor Lazarik, and the empress of Emperor Lazarik is also the sister of Chancellor of the Exchequer Nazaru.
Emperor Lazarik gritted his teeth and said, "But the Tang Empire requires that our Jisk Empire must cede the land of eleven states north of the Uniri River, which is at least five million square kilometers!" ”
Chancellor of the Exchequer Nazaru sighed and said: "Your Majesty, keep fighting, not to mention that the eleven states north of the Uniri River are not guaranteed, even the seventeen states south of the Uniri River will also face the danger of being invaded by the Tang army." ”
Emperor Lazarik was still unwilling to say: "Our Gisk Empire has a population of 400 million, if all the people are soldiers, maybe ......"
Before Emperor Lazarik finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Minister of Finance Nazaru, "Your Majesty, according to the information obtained by the intelligence department, the Tang Empire has invested more than fifteen million land forces in the territory of our Jisk Empire, and if necessary, the Tang Empire can completely transfer another 20 or 30 million army troops into the territory of our Jisk Empire, and our Jisk Empire has already implemented the tactic of all the people being soldiers, but north of the Uniri River, it still has not stopped the footsteps of the Tang Army." ”
Chancellor of the Exchequer Nazaru's words made the last bit of illusion in Emperor Lazarik's heart disappear, and Lazarik let out a long sigh: "After a hundred years, I really don't have the face to see my father." ”
During the three days of negotiations, Niki For, the prime minister of the Orenza Empire, did not make too many concessions to Xu Haoming, the prime minister of the Tang Empire, and only reduced the war reparations to 20 billion Tang Yuan, which was paid in ten years, with interest of 5 billion Tang Yuan for ten years.
The reason why the Orenza Empire's war reparations were smaller than the Gisk Empire was that the Orenza Empire was willing to hand over its navy's twenty super dreadnought battleships and twenty battle cruisers to the Tang Royal Navy, and the Orenza Navy only kept six super dreadnought battleships and four battle cruisers.
The economy of the Orenza Empire has collapsed after this war, and after the end of the war, the Orenza Empire is no longer even able to support the relatively large Orenza Navy, so with the approval of the Orenza Empire Emperor Modest, Prime Minister Nikki Fore is willing to compensate most of the remaining super dreadnought battleships and battlecruisers of the Orenza Navy to the Tang Royal Navy on the condition of reducing the war reparations.
At one o'clock in the afternoon of September 26, 3016 in the Tang calendar, Xu Haoming, the prime minister of the Tang Empire, signed an armistice agreement between the Tang Empire, the Jisk Empire, and the Orenza Empire, respectively, with Maxim, the prime minister of the Gisk Empire, and Nikifor, the prime minister of the Orenza Empire.
Although the war between the Tang Empire and the entire military alliance of the Nine Nations has not yet completely ended, after the signing of these two armistice agreements, the Tang Empire has seized about nine million square kilometers of land on the Jisk Empire and the Orensa Empire, as well as a huge amount of war reparations, and easily obtained thirty super dreadnought battleships and thirty battle cruisers from the two navies.
