"The nobles of this world have their mouths full of sieves." Binghe complained.

That night, Binghe's meeting with Velianne became known all over the city.

The first source came from Pratt & Whitney, and in their version of the story, Veryanne's plea was rejected.

However, then the second version of the steel mountain family within West, that is, Binghe only greeted Veryanne, and Binghe was very grateful to Verian for taking care of her in the past two years, and the personal relationship between the two was extraordinary. However, in those aristocratic salons, in order to solicit the interest of female audiences, this version turned into a more romantic story.

These rumors gave Binghe a headache, and he was glad that he didn't have any behavioral evidence at the time to give him more direction of evolution. Of course, there are some regrets, because if Verian had promised herself at that time and fulfilled her promise in a bright way, there would have been no such rumors that damaged Veryanne's reputation.

[Behind the widespread spread of the story, there is a new possibility of the marriage between West's Gangluan family and Pratt & Whitney. 】

Of course, compared to before the war, this kind of marriage is no longer a refuge, but an alliance.

The heritage value of West's fortress has been greatly enhanced, and the success of submarine warfare has greatly increased West's maritime geopolitical value. And Prussia, on the other hand, was targeted by Oakley and other countries due to the failure of the military adventure, and it did need West, an ally who could maintain access to the sea. Pratt & Whitney now has a sincere response to the need for union.

West, on the other hand, also needs to invest the dividends of this war in a reasonable direction, and needs to bind the military politics of Pratt & Whitney to seek more autonomy in the great power struggle. And it is precisely because of the superior mentality that the country has just defeated Pratt & Whitney, even if they marry a high-ranking professional, the nobles of West will not fall to Pratt & Whitney.

This is an extremely ironic thing, once suspicious of each other, once betrayed, and even hostile, but because of the change in the pattern, they began to hug each other for warmth. And this political marriage, which was supposed to be over, has come back from the dead.

However, under the possibility of such a union, the two countries will have to fight a war of public opinion for the alliance.

The motive of Pratt & Whitney's rumors is to prove "the innocence of Verian and Binghe", and to belittle Veryanne in order to save the face of the man's aristocracy in future marriages. This is similar to Mao Zi wanting to sell his 57 fighter plane, so he desperately stomped on the 20 Ji next door in public opinion.

West, on the other hand, carried out a public opinion counterattack, explaining the relationship between Binghe and Verian when refuting the rumors, and using the reverie that he had a very good personal relationship, just to embarrass the Pratt & Whitney marriage party.

However, in the public opinion war between the two sides, it was Verian who finally endured this tide of public opinion. And this is what Velian understood after she refused to propose marriage seriously. Throughout the ages, there are many examples of women making sacrifices for political battles.

[And Binghe, decided to use some serious things to divert the attention of these idle and idle high-class nobles from this boring topic. 】

On June 24, Binghe tested a chemical experiment on phosphorus-containing organic matter on the southeast corner of West.

On the large field, Binghe, accompanied by military members of the St. Sauck and West armies, watched the results of the experiment. On the experimental site, a terrifying situation occurred as 40 kilograms of steel cans exploded and splashed on the 20-meter-high iron tower.

All the birds in the iron cages died, and all the cattle and sheep were exterminated. The officers were speechless in shock when they saw this scene, some were excited, some were silent.

Binghe, on the other hand, silently records the defensive effect of activated carbon gas masks against asphyxiating gases, and the resistance of soda and alkaline soapy water against contaminated gases.

Note: Contaminated poison gas may look scary, but it is mostly acidic. Sprinkle alkaline water and get out of the contaminated area in time to minimize the damage. The large area of skin blistering is due to the failure to take the right measures in time. With the relevant measures, the power of the gas shells is not great.

The biggest effect of gas warfare on people is fear.

At the end of the experiment, Bing said to the officers, "It's an inhumane weapon, but it's already there." What must be possessed, must be dealt with seriously, but whoever uses it first will not be far from defeat. ”

The officers of St. Sauc and West nodded their heads, but each had their own thoughts. For Saint Sauce, it was considering how to mass-produce gas weapons. The swamp natives to the south, and the miners of the Moonfall Mountains are on strike, and the Empire needs cheaper and more terrifying weapons to suppress it.

West, on the other hand, is trying to use the deterrence brought by poison gas to ensure West's future safety.

The nobleman's mouth is the same as the colander, and the gossip about Verian is covered by the topic of "horror gas".

This also contributed to the end of the war, and after the gas experiments were over, Archduke Bickley sent a note hoping to mediate the conflict in the Westster area. The possible combination of poison gas and long-range missiles made the Oka people admit their cowardice and use the Bickery voice to test the peace talks.

The war ended with the death of two high-ranking professionals, the capture of two high-ranking professionals, and the wounding of three high-ranking professionals. Eleven high-ranking professionals were involved in the entire war, according to the number of high-ranking people involved. It was the largest war in the Western Continent in three hundred years.

Only the war against Oka when the Grand Duke of Oakley led the entire Western Continent Alliance against Oka could be compared. Unlike the anti-Oka alliance back then, this war ended with a simple victory for the coalition side.

[On June 28th, it was still in the Emerald Wall Castle. Multi-party talks are being prepared. 】

When Grand Duke Kusa, Oka's representative, arrived at Emerald Wall Castle and closed his doors. And the representative of Bikley, Suta (His Royal Highness the Prince of the same age as Binghe), who helped Oka convey his opinion, waited very shyly.

Of course, Pratt & Whitney is trying to be as polite as possible. Because Gun Flame Binghe and Pratt & Whitney reached a series of private agreements, so Pratt & Whitney behaved politely.

As for West's representative, Willy's crown stood on the balcony and looked south. Waiting for the army from the south of the family and the person who led the army to victory, came to the venue.

A few hours later, however, Vilian was overshadowed, and Saint Sauk was represented by Saint Sauk Shigemi. This knightly escort sent by St. Sauc to Bingnu participated in the entire war. But the well-deserved protagonist of this war, Binghe, was not present.

In the renovated hall.

Shigeaki at the round table stood up to make an opening remark, presided over the entire meeting, and said, "Everyone, I'm glad that we can sit down and talk now, instead of continuing to fight meaninglessly. ”

"Hmph," one of the Oka knights snorted.

Shigeaki ignored it and spread out the map with a smile, which was a map of West's current territory. Only now, a portion of the map has been carved out to the west. This is the land that the Oka people have been compressing eastward for hundreds of years. Now Shigeaki demands that the Oka people return this series of lands.

The crowd at the meeting began a chaotic bargain. The magnesium light camera recorded the faces of the people in the hall arguing.

[Sea Crab Harbor, Binghe holds a welding torch and welds the hull steel plate. In the red-red, the steel plates were butt together. The factory is filled with the smell of metal volatilization. 】

Dusty on the side held a newspaper and looked at the photos of the venue. When the boy saw Representative Oka with a stinky face, he said angrily: "Master, you fought the war, why didn't you let you preside over the meeting?" The old Oka stuff is just too arrogant. He should have killed his majesty. ”

Binghe took off the welder's face cover: "Okay, what needs to be done is done, now it's time to keep a low profile." If you think about it, if I run over to steal the limelight now, what do you make His Majesty the Emperor of Saint Sauk think?

Dust: "But you're ...... Pratt & Whit."

Binghe: "Pratt & Whitney and West are not yet superpowers on the continent, but Oka is. As the main opponent of St. Sauk in the mainland game, His Majesty the Emperor has already planned it, so let's not play prestige. We in the Gun Flame Family have things we have to do, and we need to focus on our interests now. ”

Dust: "So we're like this?" ”

Binghe: "We can't lose, how much St. Sauc eats here, how much will be given to us in China." We have done all the most difficult work with knives, and we are afraid that we will not be able to share the cake? ”

On July 4, after several days of discussions, the peace talks were successfully signed. The war is officially over. 】

The grand court banquet began. The gold and silver utensils locked in the cellar were removed, and the seafood and game brought by train were cooked by the chefs. And the aristocrats changed into ceremonial dresses. More than a month ago, the servants, musicians, and cooks who were in charge of the engagement ceremony. Once again, I will work for today's banquet.

At the banquet.

Verian crossed over a pair of courtesans and nobles.

walked in front of Shigeaki. Chongming immediately bowed to Verian and said, "Your Majesty." ”

Vilian thanked Shigemi for St. Sauk's help. After a cliché of more than two hundred words.

Veryanne: "I met under the crown the year before last and developed a deep friendship. After that, he observed Shigeaki's expression.

However, Shigeaki's expression wore a stylized smile.

Verian continued: "During this month's war, the Gangluan family is very grateful for the help of His Majesty Binghe, and hopes to invite His Majesty Binghe to Hongdubao. ”

Chongming showed a regretful expression and said, "I'm very happy to have won the friendship of the Gangluan family under the crown of Binghe. However, this month's actions have made Binghe's body very tired and needs to return to China to recuperate. ”

Veryanne's eyes drifted for a moment. Then he squeezed out a smile and said, "When will he return, can I ......?"

Chongming said: "Well, the news of the peace talks has been passed back, and our fleet has escorted Bing Nu to leave. ”

"Thorn" boiled sound, and the wine in Vilian's hand emitted white vapor under the action of microwaves. The boiling liquid should be tempered with violent fluctuations.

After a few seconds of silence, Vilian said so fast, "He's walking so fast. Hehe, okay, let's go. ”

With her wrist tilted slightly, as the people around her at the banquet watched, Verian poured the boiling wine from her glass onto the marble on the floor. The rising mist made the original conversation of everyone at the banquet stop suddenly, and the cheerful atmosphere of the banquet was paused, and Verian walked back to her seat lonely with a frustrated smile.

[580 km away, inside the Saint-Saurus fleet, in the flagship's cabin.] 】

Binghe is carefully guiding the pre-pulse for Dust. Lines spread through the body of the dust. A few hours later, Binghe patted Chenjia on the back and said, "Okay, let's go and practice the body fixing technique." ”

Dusty nodded, and walked towards the shaking swinging log.

Binghe, on the other hand, has expanded the field, and the lookout has been hundreds of kilometers away in the harbor of West. Looking at the coastline that was gradually moving away, Binghe sighed with relief: "Maybe, I won't have the opportunity to travel freely on the mainland in the future." I don't see each other that many times again."

Binghe took off his helmet, and the sea breeze blew away the metallic silver hair. Leaning against the bow of the boat on the railing, looking at the waves below, in a daze.
