Chapter 291: Ultimatum War or Peace

The military arrangement of the East China Army of Longhua in the southwest and southeast naturally caused tension between the two countries, and compared with the French alliance, they began to shout. If the East China Army dares to invade Daman Road, the two countries will start a national war with Longhua. In the face of the co-optation of the French Coalition, the government of the Eagle State no longer seems to pay attention to it, and will not affect the current cooperation with Longhua because of this small place.

After realizing that Longhua really no longer delayed the negotiation process, Harry Edward, the chief military attache of the Eagle State in Longhua and the chief of staff of the Asian garrison. This important minister, who had the earliest acquaintance with Xu Bin and had the most personal relationship with Xu Bin in Longhua Kingdom, was urgently notified by China to meet with Xu Bin. Let's see if we can delay the outbreak of war a little longer!

In the face of Edward's arrival, Xu Bin still gave a cordial friend Haode to meet him. It's just that for the Eagle Country government, I hope to extend the negotiation time a little longer, and Xu Bin's words undoubtedly made Edward understand. The young man in front of him is no longer the bandit leader in the small valley back then, but the real leader of a country.

'Sir Edward, you and I must know how long this negotiation has lasted. I know that you don't want to lose your base in Asia, but your so-called base in the Far East is built on the territory of Longhua Kingdom. Do you think this is something that can be done by a big country that respects democracy and freedom?

I ask myself if I have been polite enough to the Eagle Nation government, if it were not for the series of friendly cooperation between our two countries, what do you think of my character. Will this negotiation last so long? It is necessary to no longer treat Longhua with the concept of the past, and treat the three armed forces of the East China Army that have become powerful at present.

As for the navy and army currently stationed in Jiangdong, you are also a soldier, do you think they can resist the joint attack of our three armed forces? As I said earlier, I don't like to fight, and I prefer people to be angry and rich. But now you know that. On my path to the founding of the country, there are only these three places left.

Two of them have a relationship with you, and as for the rebels in Xiyi, they are equipped with a large number of eagle-made weapons, and you tell me that you did not provide them. It was bought from your country by the French Union, then I will believe it. It has not affected the cooperation between our two countries, but you can't take my forbearance as weakness.

You have to know more often, I have to think about the people of Longhua. Now up and down the country. They are all looking forward to the arrival of the founding of the country after the reunification of Longhua. Do you think I can postpone the great cause of reunification of the country's founding just because you have not yet discussed it in your country?

To put it mildly, if your council doesn't reach an agreement in one day, then I'll wait a day. If they don't agree for a year. I'll just wait a year? If you never reach an agreement, will you make us wait forever? So. I don't want to say anything more.

You're here this time. As an old friend, I know your difficulties. I'm going to give you another week, and you have to show your attitude for a week of fighting or fighting. If, after a week, you still feel that you are reluctant to benefit the current Jiangdong Port and Dammam Dao, then I will order the troops on standby to gather and forcibly recover the Gangdong Port and Daman Dao Eagle Territory.

At the same time interrupt the current interests of all cooperation between our two countries. All you have to do is convey a word to your council. That is, on the territorial issue, I Xu Bin will not give up an inch of land, and there is no room for negotiation. ’

For a week, Edward said almost like an ultimatum to Zuihou. I understand that there is no need to talk about it anymore. As for his tentative desire to fight for more benefits for the Eagle Country government, he was also rejected by Xu Bin. That is, the current military regime in the Eagle Subordinate District must be completely handed over.

As for the Eagle State's investments in these places, they can be protected. However, it is limited to the commercial sector, and other investments related to territorial security and people's livelihood security also need to be handed over to the military government of Longhua State. These negotiation conditions thrown out by Longhua before will not have any compromise in the slightest.

Dealing with Xu Bin is not Edward once or twice, and he also knows that Xu Bin is really ruthless this time. Unless the Eagle Country is really willing to lose both sides and let the Mi people monopolize the interests in Longhua. Otherwise, they would have no room for negotiation except to withdraw from these colonies.

Edward, who had only been given a week's deadline, hurried back to the port of Koto and reported the situation to the Eagle Parliament at the Governor's Mansion of the Eagle Army stationed in Koto. At the same time, it was pointed out that Xu Bin's attitude this time was extremely resolute. In addition, the fleet of the Longhua Navy stationed in Nanbin, Minnan, and Freeport has been assembled in the waters near Jiangdong Port and is on standby.

This means that once the Longhua Navy makes a move, with the current naval fleet of the Eagle Kingdom stationed in Jiangdong, there is no room to fight back at all. Not to mention, after the East China Army launched combat readiness, the air force units stationed in Nanbin have begun to increase reconnaissance and intelligence collection in the Jiangdong Port area.

After receiving the information sent back by Edward, the Eagle Nation Council naturally understood that this matter was a bit difficult to handle. Abandoning the port of Jiangdong, which is known as the pearl of the Orient, the Eagle Country will naturally lose a lot of overseas interests. As for Dammam, it is also a springboard for them to enter Asia. If they are also lost, their rights and interests in Asia will be equal to those of the United States.

This kind of tangled attitude of whether to fight or not to fight made the royal family of the Eagle Kingdom and the prime minister convene the important ministers of the military department for a closed-door meeting to discuss. If you join forces with the French Coalition to fight the Longhua Army, what are the chances of victory. The reply given by the important ministers of the Eagle State Military Department completely made them lose their confidence in promoting peace by war.

The ministers of the military department based on what they know about the strength of the Longhua army. With their army, into overseas delivery. Not to mention the huge consumption, the most important thing is that their army is not the object of the East China Army at all. The reason is very simple, that is, the troops of the East China Army are veteran troops that have grown up through the war.

In the Eagle Nation Army, except for a small number of veterans who participated in World War I, the fundamental army is all newly recruited recruits, and they are afraid that they will not be able to adapt to overseas operations for a while. Not to mention, once a large number of casualties are caused, there will also be anti-war protests in the country.

If the army can't be dispatched, then the navy, which is known as the first in Shijie, has been analyzed in detail by the important ministers of the military department. After the current function of submarine development in cooperation with Longhua State, unless their navy is in the high sea area, it is possible to win against Longhua State's navy. If they fight in the sea area that Longhuaguo's aircraft and submarines can reach, they also have no chance of winning.

Especially at present, the military of the Eagle Country, which has no clue about the construction of the air force, originally hoped to reach cooperation with Longhuaguo. It is hoped that Longhuaguo's current mature fighters and bombers will be aroused so that a full-fledged air force can be developed as soon as possible. But Xu Bin of the Air Force is very closely protected, and he is not willing to open up this kind of mature army to them at all.

This means that before they think of a way to deal with the Air Force, they have no way to fight Long Huaguo. Therefore, when the military department gives a suggestion, it is best to use the concession of this peace talks in exchange for the favor of Long Huaguo and start the purchase or cooperation with the other side's aircraft again.

All the troops and fleets currently from Gangdong Port and Daman Road were transferred to another East Asian colony, Austria. Truly build their solid colonies in the East there.

Because of the information received by the current military, the military of the United States has increased the number of troops stationed in the new southwest. It can be seen that they are also increasing their colonization of various Asian countries. If they do not stabilize a basis point, it is very likely that they will be overtaken by the Mi people, their military influence in the Asian island countries.

After listening to the advice given by the Minister of War, this time the Eagle Kingdom Royal Family and the Speaker of the Council did not continue to procrastinate. Soon the advice of the military headquarters was sent to Edward, who was in charge of the negotiations. It is hoped that they will make persistent efforts to make new contributions to the government of the Eagle Country and complete the task that the military department is eager to obtain the aircraft jishu.

So much so that Edward, who had left Nanbin for a day, visited Xu Bin's headquarters in Nanbin again the next day, bringing the Eagle State government to accept the existing conditions for peace talks. It is also hoped that Long Huaguo can take into account the current situation in which the opposition of the Eagle State accuses the government of incompetence and release some goodwill. Let the National Assembly and the Ministry of War better deal with the people.

When he heard that the people of the Eagle Country still wanted to cause the aircraft, Xu Bin knew very well that the performance of the Feilong 1 fighter currently equipped by the Longhua Air Force was not as strong as imagined. This kind of aircraft is actually the same as the industrial level of the Eagle people, and it can still be completed. It's just that they want to make the aircraft form combat effectiveness, and it still needs a long process, so naturally it is not as fast as buying it directly from Xu Bin.

Therefore, not only the government of the Eagle Country, but also the government of the United States has always hoped that after the cooperation on submarines, it will cooperate with the air force of Longhua. But what they don't know is that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Xu Bin has decided to equip the Air Force with more advanced Feilong upgraded aircraft.

Looking at Edward's expectant eyes, Xu Bin would not happily agree to this condition, but seemed to think very carefully for a while.

Only then did he look very serious and said: "Edward, you must know that I am also very friendly to the Eagle Country military. From the previous design drawings of the Dreadnought-class warships to the submarine cooperation we are currently ongoing, I believe you have seen my sincerity to you. Now that you have made an offer to buy an airplane, I can only say that I can't agree to it for the time being.

After all, now Longhua is not completely unified. However, I can promise that after the founding of Longhua, if the export restriction regulations for aircraft are lifted, the Eagle Kingdom military will be the first country to sell jishu and aircraft. That's the limit of what I can do at the moment, and I hope you understand.

If your Eagle Country government is really sincere, then you should really do something that a friend should do for the actual reunification of Longhua. When the time comes, after Longhua completes the reunification, I will also be good to the generals of the military department. Sell one of your full-fledged formations of Air Force aircraft, and you can also sell a couple of your trainers. ”

Although it is an uncertain condition, compared with the previous Xu Bin who resolutely did not let go, there is undoubtedly progress this time, which makes the Eagle State military see hope. For a while, the Eagle Country government also understood that this was already the limit. No matter how insatiable you are, I'm afraid it will backfire! (To be continued......)
