"What? Sue for peace? Is the great Sultanate of Sulu going to bow down to those damned Chinese? No way! I would never say yes! Suleiman Sultan shouted! All along, he just kept the Chinese as lambs, and then slaughtered them and plundered their wealth after fattening. Now, to make him bow to the Chinese, it will make him even more uncomfortable than killing him!

"Your Majesty! There's no way around it now! The troops of the Xinhua State pressed the border, and our army and navy suffered heavy losses. Under such circumstances, if we want to preserve the heritage of the Sulu Sultanate, we can only ask the Chinese for peace! The other ministers also persuaded him. Now it seems that the Sultanate of Sulu has no choice but to sue for peace! The main forces of the army and navy of the Sultanate of Sulu were wiped out by the Xinhua army, and the Xinhua army was now attacking Holo. If nothing else, Holo's defenders will not be able to resist the Xinhua army. At that time, after the Xinhua army occupied Holo, the Sultanate of Sulu ceased to exist. And they will also become slaves of the country!

Sultan Suleiman's eyes were red and he was panting for breath. He understood the words of these ministers very well. It's just that it's hard for him to accept it for a while!

"Even if I agree to make peace with the Chinese, will they agree? Don't forget, those Chinese have the absolute upper hand now! Suleiman Sultan said. If it were him, he would definitely not agree to the peace talks. After the destruction of the Sulu Sultanate, the Xinhua army was able to get more!

"Your Majesty! If we want the Chinese to stop attacking us and withdraw our troops, we will definitely pay a certain price! As long as the Chinese are willing to agree to peace talks, then we still have a chance! Even if it is a big price, as long as we can keep the country, then we still have a chance! A tall, thin middle-aged man in a white robe suggested. His name was Firas, and he was the minister in charge of foreign trade of the Sultanate of Sulu and one of the important ministers of the Sultanate of Sulu.

"Alright! Firas, I'll leave it to you to negotiate with the Chinese! Do your best to get the Chinese to retire! Suleiman Sultan said. He felt very uncomfortable, and the Sulu Sultanate lost the battle very badly, which directly destroyed his ambition. Originally, this war had nothing to do with the Sultanate of Sulu, it was a war initiated by Xinhua against the Sultanate of Maguindanao and the Sultanate of Buayan in order to be able to unify Mindanao. However, the Sultanate of Sulu intervened in it without knowing whether to live or die, resulting in the Sultanate of Sulu being attacked by the Xinhua State and suffering heavy losses. This made Suleiman Sultan very aggrieved. In his vision, nothing should be like this. How could a weak Chinese be an opponent of the Sultanate of Sulu? The army and navy of the Sultanate of Sulu should easily take out the army of the new country, and then the prestige of the Sultanate of Sulu will increase again. It can only be said that the ideal is very plump, but the reality is very skinny!

"Damn Yusouf!" Sultan Suleiman cursed secretly in his heart that if Sultan Yusuf of the Sultanate of Maguindanao had not sent someone to ask him for help, the Sultanate of Sulu would not have fallen to this point this time.

"Yes, Your Majesty! The minister immediately went to prepare for negotiations with Xinhuaguo! "Firas did not postpone this task.

At this moment, the sound of Holo Harbor is still shaking the sky. The 12 'Shark-class' cruisers of the First Fleet of the Xinhua Navy are still pouring shells on the port. The coastal defense batteries had been completely destroyed, and the infantry of the Sultanate of Sulu who were deployed on the batteries had suffered heavy losses. Now the navy of the new country is firing at the defensive positions of the army of the Sultanate of Sulu, clearing the way for the landing of the army!

In order to resist the attack of the Xinhua army, the army of the Sultanate of Sulu gathered a large number of troops in the port. The houses where goods are usually stacked have become their defensive positions at this time. It's just that these brick and wood houses have been reduced to ruins under the artillery fire of the Xinhua Army, and there is almost no defense. The officers and soldiers of the army of the Sultanate of Sulu who were hiding inside were either killed directly or buried alive in the rubble! The docks of the port did not receive a single shell. After all, the two infantry battalions of the 1st Brigade of the subsequent Army also needed to land with the help of ports. In this way, it can greatly help reduce the time it takes to log in!

At 1:50 p.m., the 2nd Infantry Battalion and the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 1st Brigade of the Xinhua Army began to land at Holo. More than a dozen merchant ships sailed into the harbor under the protection of warships and docked. At this time, the army of the Sultanate of Sulu had suffered heavy losses under the shelling of the Xinhua Navy, and there was no way to stop the landing of the Xinhua army.

After the two infantry battalions, a total of more than 1,500 soldiers, landed safely, they began to advance into the harbor! The warships of the Navy moored to the sea provided them with adequate fire support. Coupled with the mortars carried by the army itself, it is enough to kill the officers and soldiers of the Sulu Sultanate Army who are hiding in the buildings!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "The crisp sound of gunshots like fried beans rang out in the harbor. The army soldiers of the Xinhua Army alternately covered the attack into the port! The officers and soldiers of the Sultanate of Sulu who were hiding in the buildings occasionally returned fire with shotguns or bows and arrows. It's just that because of the range, they are often shot by the soldiers of the Xinhua Army as soon as they come out. In a close-range encounter, the Xinhua army threw a few grenades, which were able to turn the troops of the Sulu Sultanate on their backs. If it encounters an insurmountable place, the mortars in the rear will open fire, directly blasting the obstacle to pieces. Under such tactics, the army of the Sultanate of Sulu was only defeated and retreated, and it was simply unable to stop the offensive of the Xinhua army!

"Kill!" A group of Sulus, armed with broadswords and spears, rushed into the harbor and rushed towards the Xinhua army. They were newly recruited recruits, and the attack of the Xinhua Army was so fierce that the army commander of the Sultanate of Sulu had no choice but to send these recruits to the battlefield!

These recruits have no combat skills, but they are not afraid of death.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "Amid the gunfire of the soldiers of the Xinhua Army, one after another Sulu people fell to the ground. Shells exploded in the crowd, and shrapnel reaped lives in all directions. Soon, a thick layer of corpses piled up on the way from the port to the pier.

The death of his companions made those Sulu people also feel the threat of death, and the courage they had mustered up was also completely lost at this moment. They threw away their weapons and fled with a scream.

A burst of shells and bullets from the Xinhua army once again killed a lot of Sulu people.

Because of the small number of troops, the Xinhua army attacked very cautiously. With the strength of two infantry battalions, it is somewhat unrealistic to destroy the Sultanate of Sulu. After all, the Sultanate of Sulu was a more powerful country than the Sultanate of Maguindanao and the Sultanate of Buayan combined. Fortunately, several battalions of the Second Brigade that followed from Xinhua City were already on their way, and they would be able to reach Holo in two to three days. When the time comes, the strength of the Xinhua Army will not be so tight!

Suddenly, a group of Sulus with white flags appeared inside the port. The Sulu man at the front was still waving the white flag in his hand. His pace was a little slow, and it was clear that he was afraid that the Xinhua army would shoot him. Fortunately, the Xinhua Army did not fire at these people after seeing them holding white flags and not carrying weapons on them! This group of people is none other than Filas and his entourage, who were ordered to negotiate with Xinhuaguo!

"I am the emissary of His Majesty the Sultan of Suleiman, and I want to see your commander!" Firas said loudly. One of his entourages spoke Mandarin and hurriedly translated it.

"You and this translator come with us! The rest are here! "A company commander at the front left Firas's retinue where they were, and then sent someone to send them to the docks.

A small boat carrying Firas and his interpreter went to the cruiser 'Xinhua' anchored in the sea. The battle in the port continued, and the Xinhua army had not yet fully controlled the situation, so of course Long Yufei would not disembark at this time. In case of any accident, Xinhuaguo can't afford it!

After a body search, Firas and his interpreter were taken to the deck of the cruiser 'Xinhua'. Long Yufei and Luo Sangu were standing on the deck. Li Hu, the chief of the guard, stood beside Long Yufei, staring at Filas vigilantly, if he made any changes, Li Hu would kill him as soon as possible! On the deck, there are also several elite guards!

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Long Yufei asked straight to the point.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am the emissary of His Majesty the Sultan of Suleiman! His Majesty the Sultan has sent me to negotiate with your country to end this war! Firas said. On the way here, Xinhua had already told him that His Majesty the King would personally receive him.

"Humph! End the war? Is there such a cheap thing? Long Yufei said disdainfully. At the beginning, the Xinhua army did not target the Sultanate of Sulu this time, but planned to solve it later. After all, the Sultanate of Sulu, as a large country around the Sulu Sea, poses a great threat to Xinhua. On the side of the couch, how can others snore and sleep, with Long Yufei's character, he naturally will not let such a threat exist for a long time. However, Xinhua had limited military strength, and if he could, he hoped to postpone the attack on the Sulu Sultanate.

However, the Sultanate of Sulu sought its own death and wanted to intervene in the war in Mindanao. This time, Long Yufei will not let go of this opportunity! Now the Sultanate of Sulu wants peace talks, not to mention the door, not even the window!
