Ten days later, in the sea outside the port of Umlim, three warships of the Kingdom of Nova Tenotiran had been withdrawn.

After emergency repairs, the flagship Tosro was able to sail at low speeds, and the badly injured Pagziano was towed back with the Stana.

The hustle and bustle of the port, calm was restored.

The afternoon sun seems to have become much gentler, quietly, sprinkled in the quiet and quiet port.

In the small building of Feta Manor, George stood in front of the window on the second floor, holding a cup of coffee and sipping unhurriedly.

"This chocolate war is finally over. ”

Isabella laughed, "How do you call it a chocolate war?"

"Because it's made of chocolate. A port official of the Aara Empire forcibly deprived the merchants of the kingdom of New Tenotiran of their legal property - unfortunately, the merchant was the president of the chamber of commerce with the royal family holding the royal charter, which led to armed intervention. ”

"It's really high-sounding. ”

"No matter how much intrigue and accident there is involved, this is the way it is. ”

"So, who wins, Ara and Nuevo Tenotiran?"

"The first thing to be cleared up is that the port of um lim in Ara's country and a group of military adventurers in Nuevo Tenotiran are fighting. At the national level, it is a limited conflict, and it has nothing to do with the general situation, and there is no winning or losing. ”

"What's the matter with the military adventurers? Isn't this aggression an act of the state?"

"The intention of the Admiralty of New Tennotiran is very clear, let them come out for 'sea trials', test ships and equipment, and feel the strength of the Ara Empire, not to fight a tough battle - what can three ships do? They just caught up with the chaos in the port of Umlim, so they hoped to strike first and take the port, but they did not expect to lose their troops. ”

"I see—what are you sneering at?"

"As a soldier, the choice of retreat can be described as general, but after you go back, you will wait to be severely punished. ”

"Sounds like you have another way? You can't fight anymore, can you?"

"Of course, I would have chosen the ship that sank the flagship and the seriously injured. ”

Isabella shuddered, "You mean...... To drag the whole country into the water?"

"This war is only a limited conflict, and the Arabis are not able to achieve full mobilization, and Nuevo Tenotiran is also not determined to fight an all-out war, with one exception. The fleet suffered heavy losses, most of the officers and men were killed, and fled back in disgrace. This is a newly established state that cannot be accepted in any way, and it will inevitably lead to frenzied revenge and large-scale invasions - even if it is a war and bankrupt, otherwise Atavar will not be able to sit on the throne. So, now is the best outcome. ”

"Umlim loses first and then wins, and the military adventurers win first and then lose, no matter how you look at it, Umlim Harbor wins, why did you come up with a shameful treaty in the end?"

"The balance of strength is there, the civil strife caused by Chahari and Murtaiz has consumed a lot of strength, and if New Tenotiran wants to occupy Umlim, they will not be able to bear it on their own. What about next time? It is better to take advantage of the fact that the losses of both sides are leveled off, and each other has a step down, and a peace treaty is made to stabilize the situation, and the future grievances and grievances will be discussed in the future. Next, it's time for the businessmen. ”

Royce pushed the door in: "What, what are you muttering to me behind your back?"

"After this war, the Rahr Chamber of Commerce has a great reputation, so that the country will not hesitate to fight, what kind of chamber of commerce is this, and what kind of commodity is it, the future business will be much easier; Mr. Royce has also been promoted to the Senate of the Foreign Trade Bureau of the Port of Umlim, and the import and export tax on goods of the Kingdom of New Tenotiran is decided in a word, and the future is immeasurable, and it is gratifying and gratifying. ”

He also said that in the future, when the Arabis eat chocolate, they will think of this war. They will take it as a symbol of shame. ”

"How? Didn't they win? You can carve a pattern on the front of the chocolate and sink the battleship with a flying carpet, and on the reverse side, 'Kara is the greatest,' and it will be a hit." ”

Isabella chuckled, "George, you're really ......"

Royce was also amused by the humor: "It's like winning the truth, you see, the Treaty of Umlim was finally announced." ”

George unfolded it, and the treaty became four:

The port of um lim of the Aara Empire (hereinafter referred to as "Ahmad") compensated the Kingdom of Neut Tenotiran (hereinafter referred to as "T") for the loss of 21 million dinars, of which 8 million were lost by merchants.

The port of Umlim was opened as a free trade port.

Lease of Radeler Island off the port of um lim to the country for a period of 99 years.

The port of the special country must agree with the special country to pay taxes on the import and export goods of the special country.

George laughed out loud.

Royce asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"I didn't expect to be in this world to see the sunset of an empire with my own eyes. Perhaps, in the next hundred years, it will step by step towards the deepest darkness, and then usher in a new sunrise. And we are both the guides of darkness and the sowers of light. ”

Royce pondered: "Speaking of which, early this morning, Prince Suleiman set off for the kingdom of New Tenotiran. ”

"It seems that he was impressed by the weaponry of the new Tenotiran ah, and it is a good thing that he went to study. New Tenotiran will blame this setback as a lack of research, and Ara will also blame the invasion due to too backward technology and poor strength, and it is conceivable that in the next ten years, alchemy will become the most sought-after field in both countries. ”

"Then, advanced technology will drive the progress of the country, the nations will learn to live together peacefully through friction and compromise, and finally the world will be one — and then, those of us who walk on the edge of darkness and light will be able to steal the fun, right?"

"Ha, what a boring ideal. Alright, everyone, pack your bags, we're going to the end of the Pearl Road, the city of Dorihachi, the pearl of the desert, Riley, you go to Mr. Feida to arrange a caravan, maybe we can go with Ala's national hero, the Black Lion Hassan. ”

At the same time, in a dark tunnel deep in the earth, two cloaked figures were carefully burrowing through the crevices of the rock.

Passing through a narrow gap that could only accommodate one person, in front of it was a low passage, through which two men bent over, and at the end of the passage, there was a white stone.

The stone was opened first, and the sand was dug up, revealing a delicate small box, and one of them, tremblingly, reached out and opened the button, which contained a piece of paper and a note. The note reads: "Fight for the nation, fight for reason, make good use of technology, and don't hurt civilians." Otherwise, you will be killed by random arrows. ”

The signature of the note is a black lion.

He trembled and fell to his knees, held the box above his head with both hands, and kissed it three times respectfully.

The companion in the back urged, "What's the matter, Osama, is there one?"

"Yes, Nibali. The Great Leader did not lie to us, he left us a map of the dungeon and a letter. Look at it. ”

Nibali snatched it, looked at it, and said dejectedly: "What, he dismantled most of the equipment, and now he can only produce swords." What can we do with such a device?"

Osama said: "You can't say that, when the great chief comes to the underground, he can accomplish such a great feat alone, can't we? This is precisely to test us! Come, let's fight together for the revival of the Arab! Fight against those invaders, against the corrupt princes who obstruct the revival of the country!"

"Well, two people?"

"Of course, we must set up an organization, based on the underground palace left by the great chief, and absorb those partners who are interested in the revival of the country to join!"

"Where's the name?"

"Well, let's call it the base. ”

"What a dirty name. ”

"Hmph, my own name will also be changed, and Ala will not be revived for a day, and he will not change back to his original name for a day!"

"Oh, what's the new name?"

"The great leader lights the lamp of my soul, the lamp of life, and the lamp of hope, and it is called a lantern. Well, I'm going to have to grow a beard and cover up the scar on my chin in the future, okay, that's it!"

Far away at the docks, Duck didn't know what was going on underground, and he was looking at the parting Mensaro with complicated eyes.

The Mensaros are leaving.

Twenty-three thousand five hundred and seventy-two Mensaro, who had decided to leave the land they had once loved, but now had to leave, went to New Tenotiran and began a new life there.

"Great Chief, my greatest happiness is to meet you!"

A little Menzaro boy said excitedly.

This little boy is Rashid who saved Dark, Matedi, and Nibali when they escaped from Umlim Harbor. He was attacked by a lizard, his life was almost lost, and now he is finally basically recovering.

Duck raised his hand and touched his head: "What happiness, it caused you to lie down for so long." You have suffered, little gerbil. The next boat ride is a long time, and you must listen to Dad. ”

"Well, don't worry, by the way, this, for you. ”

Rashid handed over a small wooden sculpture of a black lion's head, with holes drilled in the lion's mane and rope threaded: "Black lion, patron saint of the Menzaro people." ”

Dark's heart tightened, and when he looked up, not only the little boy's father, but also Marduk and the others next to him, each with one hanging around his neck.

The Aaram forbidden idolatry, and they openly wore it to mean that they would completely break with this place and with the Mislans.

Duck pretended to smile lightly: "I'm still alive, what do you mean by wearing this?"

The little boy smiled confidently, "Spirit, a spirit! Whether it's jumping lizards, hostility or slaughter, the Mensaros will not back down! It has nothing to do with you, it really has nothing to do with it! Goodbye, Holy Blessing...... No, victory is with you!"

The ship behind him raised the red and white arrowtail flag, and the time to leave came.

Marduk yelled, "Get on the boat, get on the boat!"

The great migration of the Mensaros began. A new page has been opened in the history of the port of Umlim.
