Chapter 152: Negotiation (2) (1/3)
Chinese The emissaries of the five kingdoms are all burdened with the expectations of their respective kings, and they will achieve enough benefits for their country without any grace.
Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test In this small house, the five of them will have the most fierce verbal confrontation, which will definitely be a protracted and spiritual destruction.
But they will hold on to the end for the good of their country until the other side falls first.
His Excellency the Duke of Elf is very clear about what will happen in the course of this negotiation.
He hasn't said anything weighty and directly conclusive because he knows it very well.
In this bloodless struggle, there is something hidden that is more important than a bloody battle.
It was not the first time that the five envoys had come here to discuss the matter of sending troops to the province of Blago, but every time they had broken up unhappily before, they had even almost staged an all-out military march.
Each of the envoys seemed to be very dissatisfied with the arrangements of the other kingdoms, but despite this, none of the envoys really walked away.
This is not because of the presence of the Tunisian Kingdom Overseer, but because in fact, the previous discussion, as everyone knows, is just a lion's mouth.
Just like the one that asks the Sultanate to send 50,000 troops, this is absolutely impossible. The entire Sultanate had only half a million people, so how could it really be possible to draw one-tenth of the population to wage a foreign war.
Since ancient times, there have been only two reasons why the number of soldiers mobilized has reached one-tenth. One reason is that the whole country has been crushed by the rebels, and the first priority of the whole country is war, to stabilize the country.
Another reason is that the country has been invaded by foreign enemies, and it has reached the moment of life and death, and all people can only be soldiers.
But there has never been a precedent for a normal country to dispatch a tenth of its population in a war of aggression for profit.
Such a state could not exist! You know, the province of Blago had a larger population than the Sultanate, but it had only 30,000 troops.
10,000 of them remained in the garrison of Blago City. Although the province of Blago was prepared to send 60,000 troops in this war, 40,000 of them were mercenaries drawn from the subject countries and from the elven kingdom.
......
"Bell, you don't need to say it again, the great Sultanate will never accept your proposal, and the number of 20,000 troops will be the bottom line of the kingdom!" said the Sultanate's Foreign Minister Chad in a loud voice.
His face had an angry expression that seemed to be insulted, and his slightly obese figure waved violently
"If you babble on this matter, I will duel against you!wash away the shame you have brought to the kingdom with your blood!" said Peter, the envoy of the Kingdom of Tomei, a slightly thin middle-aged man who looked the exact opposite of Chad's, said with a blank face
"Our kingdom of Tomei will not accept the number of troops sent by 40,000 troops, you are simply crazy!"
"Your Majesty the Great Ronches should punish you foolish and greedy people!" said Peter. Duke Elf frowned slightly and said
"Bell, Harlan, and Waffred, it's been two days, and this matter should be over. "The implication of Duke Elf's words is that the Sultanate and the Kingdom of Tomei will never accept this condition, and you have wasted enough time making a fuss about this, and now it should be the end of the matter.
The other three looked at each other a few times, and finally it was the envoy of the Kingdom of Djibouti, Bell, who was a middle-aged man with a goat's beard.
"In that case, let's take a step back. There are 25,000 men in the Sultanate, 20,000 in the Kingdom of Tomei, 30,000 in the Kingdom of Djibouti, and 20,000 in the Kingdom of the Gambia and the Kingdom of Morocco. How?" Harun, the envoy of the Kingdom of Gambia, and Wifred, the envoy of the Kingdom of Morocco, immediately nodded in agreement.
Seeing the consistent behavior of the other three people, Chad and Peter immediately changed their faces. The two of them had no idea when the other three kingdoms had colluded together!
But in this situation, the Duke of Elf is watching from the sidelines, and if you don't agree with such a constructive opinion, the consequences will not be good.
But in fact, both the poor and Peter's hearts are dripping blood, and the number that the other party said is almost the bottom line in their hearts.
Duke Elf also didn't expect that the other three kingdoms would actually stand together, and they would join forces to pit the two strongest kingdoms.
After all, the Sultanate and the Kingdom of Tomei are going to send high-level legions, and in such a situation, it will definitely be a loss if they only send the same number of troops as other kingdoms.
But the idea was that the Kingdom of Djibouti offered to mobilize 30,000 troops. In terms of numbers, there was even one more legion than the Sultanate, and all at once the other side was gagged.
I am afraid that the other two kingdoms have given the Kingdom of Djibouti some additional benefits in private. However, Erwin likes these things, after all, it can move the negotiations forward quickly.
"That's right, so that the total number of troops we can dispatch will reach 115,000 men, plus the kingdom will send you a mid-level army carrying holy relics, a full army of 120,000 people, to be used in a provincial war, absolutely to sweep away all the enemies with a devastating situation. Erwin said with a smile.
The so-called holy relics are actually things similar to the Holy Army Banner of the Emerald Empire, and this kind of thing is different in every country.
And the number of such sacred relics is also different in each country, and the Kingdom of Tunisia is a relatively well-established kingdom, with three such things in the country.
In the past, the Blago Kingdom also had a holy relic of this kind, but in the war with the Emerald Empire, with the fall of the Ultimate Legion, that holy relic also disappeared.
I don't know if it was damaged or if it was buried somewhere. However, other countries generally collect this kind of thing differently, after all, this kind of thing is different from an artifact that can be used by anyone, and foreign people cannot use the national sacred relics of other countries.
Hearing Duke Elf's words, Chad and Peter's faces were still blue, and the other three applauded.
Laughed
"It's going to be a big win this time. "Baidu
