Chapter 310: Starving Zombies?
The two sides simply took a step back and agreed to continue peace talks tomorrow.
Territorial differences are not so easy to resolve, especially when the eastern country** is not willing to let go anyway.
In this regard, Xu Yuan's approach was very insidious, and while negotiating, he instructed Ciro Zamora to open a channel for "family visits" for the families of the 40,000 prisoners of the Eastern Army.
Visitors are allowed to enter the country for a stay of up to two days to visit their detained relatives under the leadership of Democratic soldiers.
It's a good thing that when they don't see each other, the families of these captives can still keep their senses, and when they see their sons, husbands, and boyfriends locked up in the prisoner of war camp, these tears and sadness suddenly can't be restrained.
Although these prisoners of war were not treated inhumanely, they were all more or less horrific in battle.
In the face of the pleas for his release, the Democrats responded resolutely and toughly.
"We want peace, but we will never compromise with the enemy, and if you want your loved ones to come home, then go to your president, the choice is always in his hands."
"As long as he is willing to sign the peace agreement, we can lay down our arms and go home to our loved ones!"
"We are also victims! We also long for peace! ”
And what happened next naturally went on.
The families of the soldiers who returned to Dongguo after the visit held up protest signs and shouted anti-war slogans, blocking the presidential palace in Dongguo.
The plight of the soldiers' families was echoed by other anti-war activists in the eastern part of the country and citizens who had lost their livelihoods because of the war.
Waves of protests have come and gone, and one wave has outweighed another!
The warm card played by Xu Yuan has achieved extraordinary results in the eastern country, which has long been overwhelmed by the economy.
There are only a small number of people. Tribe. Host. The righteous shouted that they would never compromise and fight to the end, and resolutely opposed compromise on territorial issues.
But these cries are already thunderous and rainy, and the people are always fickle.
In times of peace, they may cry out for war because of the pride in their hearts, but in times of war, most of them change their minds as their quality of life declines.
Until the signing of the cease-fire agreement, the Star Trading Company entered the war for a total of ten days, but the eastern currency depreciated by nearly 20% and prices rose by 50%.
The monkeys who were clamoring to crush the country of Canada and turn the Lucas Islands into an eastern colony suddenly calmed down and began to reflect on their lives and values.
Under domestic pressure, Dongguo finally returned to the negotiating table in humiliation after holding out for half a month.
In the end, they recognized the independence of the democrats, the Second City, as well as part of the territorial waters of the nearby archipelago, belonged to the democrats, and the eastern soldiers withdrew.
On the other hand, the frigates and submarines of the Star Trading Company withdrew from the territorial waters of the Eastern Kingdom, and at the same time, both the pro-democracy side and the Eastern Kingdom unconditionally released their prisoners of war.
As a result, the democrats finally fulfilled their decades-long demand for independence, and lost the country's second largest island, and the eastern country was devastated as a result.
And the Wishing Star Trading Company, which contributed to all this, became the biggest winner in this war.
At the signing ceremony of the peace agreement, Xu Yuan saw the comedic horse face of the president of Dongguo.
However, the puffy eye circles and white sideburns gave this face a bit of tragedy.
Under the lens of the reporter, he stepped forward and shook the muscular Ciro Zamora's hand.
Ciro Zamora grinned at him, and he had to respond with a smile that was uglier than crying.
In the end, the media's lens was fixed on the two hands of the peace deal.
The two men signed their names on two peace agreements and declared the end of the civil war in front of the people of the world.
Outside the lens of the media, the real facilitators of this peace negotiation, Zanetti and Xu Yuan, are watching this historic scene from afar.
"I hope this is the last time." Zanetti stared into Xu Yuan's eyes, "You have touched our bottom line, do you want to know what the congressional turnout for the war option is?" ”
"I don't want to know," Xu Yuan shook his head with a smile, "but you should also know my bottom line." ”
A pistol, no matter how many rounds there are, even if it is held in the hands of a baby, is also a gun.
Rather, because it is in the baby's hand, the gun is more dangerous, as long as the baby is not too greedy, the two sides can still live in peace.
Zanetti snorted, pulled out his lighter and lit himself a cigar, then got into the car that picked him up and walked away.
Xu Yuan stood at the ceremony for a while, looked at the pair of fluttering olive branches on the United Nations flag, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Before the applause rang out, he turned and walked away.
The war is over, and Ciro Zamora owes a total of $1.5 billion to Wishing Star Trading.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the reason for the war was too good, the Resident Evil in the Second City had aroused his vigilance, and he would have planned to drag this war on for a little longer.
The more money Ciro Zamora owes to the Star Wish Trading Company, the more control the Star Wish Trading Company has over them.
This is the poorest southern region in the East, and it is absolutely impossible to directly come up with $1.5 billion in cash, which can only be compensated by the abundant untapped mineral resources and fertile land in the region.
And these things are exactly what Xu Yuan wants most.
These resources and land are very important to Qatar, and most of the mineral resources and agricultural products in Qatar and Yuanxing are currently imported from Australia.
Although the relationship between the two parties is good, it is obviously not a good choice to rely too much on the iron buddies of the Berry Country.
However, for the time being, Australia has not said anything about the situation in the East, and it is clear that they do not want to offend Qatar countries with good economic prospects for the sake of the East.
Due to the entry into force of the peace agreement, the Star Trading Company withdrew its frigates deployed in the territorial waters of the Eastern Kingdom.
As well as more than 1,000 Marines, only 100 soldiers were left in the Second City, with the democrats of the government. The government forces work together to maintain order in the area.
Three days have passed since the peace agreement entered into force.
"At present, there are more than 100,000 zombies entrenched in the east of the second city, and our plan is to use the Scorpion tank to form a tank battalion, regain the bridge, and then use barbed wire to pull up the isolation belt, and gradually regain the eastern area......"
At this moment, standing next to Xu Yuan was the infantry division commander Kari arranged by Ciro Zamora, who was discussing the issue of zombie disposal with Xu Yuan.
"Don't bother." Xu Yuan shook his head.
Kari turned his inquiring gaze to Xu Yuan, waiting for his next step.
"T-viruses, as our scientists name them, have been shown to be weak in UV resistance and have a short survival time in vitro, as proven by clinical trials. As long as the lockdown is maintained, the likelihood of the epidemic spreading is low, as for those zombies...... Wait until they themselves starve to death. ”
"Starving?" Kari looked at Xu Yuan in surprise.
"That's right." Xu Yuan nodded.
There is a fundamental difference between the zombies that broke out in the second city and the zombies on the side of the source star.
This distinction is mainly reflected in the pathogenic mechanism, one is a viral infection, and the other is a radiation bacterial infection.
Although the former destroys the human nervous system and immune system, it does not solve the energy problem of zombies.
The latter is a variant of the purified radiation bacteria, which can make the host gain the ability to photosynthesize after parasitic the host.
Any living thing will die if it doesn't eat.
Even zombies can't get rid of this basic law of nature.
Even if these zombies are left alone, as long as they don't eat their own kind and hold on to death for more than a month, they will become human.
When the time comes, just prepare a few more incinerators and dispose of these dead bodies.
The only thing that is more troublesome now is that these zombies have lost their immune systems, and their bodies have shown signs of decay, and if they are not controlled, there is a risk of a plague outbreak in the second city.
