"Ambassador Lin, if that's the case, I don't think we have anything to talk about today!" , Fernando said with a straight face and a dissatisfied tone. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Lin Aofeng didn't keep it, and directly called the embassy staff to send off the guests. Fernando was so angry that his face turned red and he was about to scold.

Fortunately, he knew what this place was, and he still had reason in his heart. He pursed his lips, blushed and walked away.

So the first peace talks were declared a failure.

But Lin Aofeng is not in a hurry! Because the longer the time drags on, the more Britons die. The security situation in British India became more and more unfavorable.

Although the Ming Dynasty will also spend too much energy due to the war. But the more Britain loses in comparison. Therefore, the balance of time is on the side of the Ming Dynasty.

And peace talks cannot be achieved in one go. Therefore, Lin Aofeng was not in a hurry.

After a few days, Fernando was cheeky again and visited again.

Compared with the first time, Fernando's tone was much looser. However, the Ming Dynasty withdrew from the Indian Ocean and returned the island, but still did not let go.

It's just that the compensation has been raised from 5 million Chinese dollars to 10 million Chinese dollars.

Lin Aofeng also went downhill with the donkey, lowering the conditions. From 300 million Chinese dollars, it was lowered to 260 million Chinese dollars. However, the withdrawal of the navy and the return of the islands were not mentioned.

Such an attitude once again caused the peace talks to break up unhappily.

But when Fernando came over for the third time, Lin Aofeng closed the door and disappeared. This is also one of the means of negotiation, showing the toughness of the Ming Dynasty.

So that the peace talks will be more conducive to the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, the intelligence station also learned about the British bottom line from the British mission.

It turned out that Britain had only two demands. One was to keep the Indian colony, and the other was to buy enough antiseptics and flu pills from the Ming Dynasty.

So that the damned flu will be fundamentally contained.

And compared to the Indian colonies, Britain had a greater need for medicines.

This made Lin Aofeng suddenly realize. It's no wonder that Fernando puts forward so many strings attached, and every time he mentions medicines.

At first, Lin Aofeng didn't think deeply, but he didn't expect that this was the real purpose.

He ordered the embassy staff to take Fernando's post. The next day, Fernando was early in the morning. rushed to the Ming Embassy.

It is estimated that Fernando has been in a hurry these days, so his eyes are red, and he knows that he has not slept well at a glance. It is no wonder that the British king, on his side, asks him every day about the progress of the peace talks.

To be honest, he's not easy to deal with. If you don't tell the truth, you will deceive the king again. Anyway, no matter what he does, he won't be able to reap the benefits.

So he was really distressed about this.

So as soon as he heard the news that Lin Aofeng had agreed to meet, he hurried over.

But compared with his anxiety, Lin Aofeng was particularly careless. So as soon as he came, he waited for two or three hours.

Just when he was drinking tea and drinking uncomfortable, Lin Aofeng finally came to see what he wanted.

"Hehehe, Lin made the envoy wait for a long time." As he spoke, he yawned and stretched lazily. It looks like he hasn't woken up.

Fernando was afraid that Lin Aofeng would close the door again and delay his business, so he forced a smile and said, "I came early and disturbed Ambassador Lin's tranquility." ”。

As soon as he said this, the eyes of the two immediately intertwined.

It wasn't until two seconds later, when Fernando took the lead in looking away, that Lin Aofeng put away his scrutiny and asked him about today's conditions in a friendly manner.

Without delay, Fernando made three demands. First, the Ming Dynasty promised not to use force against the British Indian colonies again. This is a big reduction from the Ming Dynasty's demand to withdraw from the Indian Ocean.

Because this means that the Indian Ocean route is no longer dominated by the United Kingdom. It can be regarded as giving away part of the cake of the Indian Ocean to Daming.

The second condition is the return of the Lakshadweep Islands, Ceylon, Lakshadweep Islands, and Maldives Islands. The Andaman Islands and the Nicobar Islands formally renounced their territorial claims.

The third indemnity was also raised to 50 million Chinese dollars.

Later, the Strait of Malacca was opened as an international shipping lane to ensure freedom of navigation, and the additional conditions for the purchase of medicines remained basically unchanged.

Hearing this, Lin Aofeng sneered in his heart. If he hadn't figured out the UK's intentions before, he wouldn't have cared about the strings and conditions. But now, of course, it's not possible.

So it's-for-tat. Again, three basic principles. The first is the state of war, which can only be implemented after the armistice is formally signed. Therefore, during the peace talks, the Ming Dynasty will not strike the army.

In addition, the Indian Ocean route is the life route of the Ming Dynasty to communicate with the outside world. Therefore, in the Indian Ocean, far away from the Indian subcontinent, non-Ming warships are not allowed.

Otherwise, it is not conducive to the tranquility of the Indian Ocean shipping route.

These high-sounding words made Fernando once again realize Lin Aofeng's skinlessness and facelessness. After all, in such a vast Indian Ocean, only Ming warships are allowed to appear, which is too wild and domineering.

However, in the contemporary era of respect for force, this is nothing.

It was mainly Lin Aofeng who used the word "peace" as a shield. It seems that the Ming Dynasty is the guardian of peace, without which the Indian Ocean would not be at peace.

Where does this leave the face of the Indian fleet?

So he had secretly decided that he would not agree to it no matter what.

Listening to Da Ming's second condition, he rolled his eyes in anger. Because the Ming Dynasty still does not let go, its claims to Ceylon, Lakshadweep Islands, and Maldives Islands are still very tough.

In terms of the third compensation, it has not dropped much. From 160 million Chinese dollars. It became 120 million Chinese dollars.

Although compared with the increase in the United Kingdom, Daming's decline has increased several times. But it was Britain who took the money, no matter how it fell, Daming would not lose.

So at this point, there is still a big difference between Ming and Ying.

It's just that this is not over, Lin Aofeng is still very strict after saying these three conditions. All additional conditions should be discussed separately as clauses.

This made Fernando think carefully, and he was stillborn all of a sudden. He pretended to be dissatisfied and argued for a while. It wasn't until Lin Aofeng directly said the word "send-off" that he closed his mouth in a panic.

And changed his tone, flatteringly, let them discuss again.

So the embassy staff came up again to refresh the tea. The two of them didn't speak, they were relatively silent, drinking tea calmly.

After about a stick of incense, Fernando couldn't help but break the silence.
