Chapter 136: It's no good to be captured

When the combined forces of the Kingdom of Ruersun and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce broke through the city of St. Antonis, almost everyone thought that they would rush all the way to Wimbledon as they had done in the previous provinces of the Candela Empire, and then strive to capture even Wimbledon in one fell swoop.

Because Wimbledon is the capital of the Candela Empire, if Wimbledon also falls, the blow to the entire Candela Empire will naturally be extremely serious, and it is even enough to declare that the Candela Empire is close to extinction.

However, the Luxin coalition army was beyond everyone's expectations, and at this time it chose to stop and continue to advance, and actually started peace talks with the Candela Empire.

Since the two empires had a bad relationship with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce last year, the entire continent has been in turmoil, and now the New Flying Chamber of Commerce suddenly chose to negotiate peace with the Candela Empire, which unexpectedly ushered in an extremely rare period of calm for the entire continent.

The eyes of the entire continent were focused on this peace talks.

Whatever the outcome of the peace talks looks like, everyone is sure that this outcome will inevitably affect the rest of the situation on the entire continent.

If the peace talks between the two sides are successful, then the Candela Empire will obviously pay some heavy price to bring the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Ruerson Kingdom to a halt.

How painful the price paid by the Candela Empire, and what the specific price is, will determine what kind of attitude and strategy many countries and forces will use to treat the Candela Empire and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the future.

If the peace talks between the two sides are unsuccessful and the two sides go to war again, it will depend on whether the Luxin coalition forces can really capture Wimbledon. Let the Candela Empire be on the brink of extinction.

Although the Luxin coalition army has shown itself invincible in previous battles. The Candela Empire, on the other hand, was defeated all the way. But Wimbledon is the capital of the Candela Empire after all, representing the entire Candela Empire, and the Candela Empire will definitely do everything possible to keep it.

The power that such an ancient and vast empire can burst out when it is cornered must be extremely terrifying.

Even if the Luxin coalition army can show strong combat effectiveness on the battlefield, it will not be so easy to capture Wimbledon.

Therefore, other countries and forces will have to wait for the final result to come out before making a decision.

As a result, there were many wars in other places on the mainland, but because of the resumption of peace talks between the Candela Empire and the Luxin coalition forces, they invariably temporarily stopped fighting, and they were all patiently waiting for the results of this peace talks.

However, as everyone expected, such peace talks involving almost the two largest powers on the entire continent will not be so easy to come to fruition.

After the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom of Ruerson proposed an armistice. It took Xu Yi the seven days given by the Candela Empire until the afternoon of the last day, when the Marquis de Descartes came to the city of St. Antonis again with the resolution of the Candela Empire to meet with the representatives of the Luxin coalition again.

This time, he didn't even see Xu Yi's face.

Representatives from the Ruerson Kingdom and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce firmly rejected the conditions they had allowed from the Candela Empire, and then after five days of intense negotiations with the Marquis de Descartes, a new armistice was issued, and the Marquis de Descartes was brought back again to present to the Candela Empire's higher-ups.

This time, the Luxin coalition army was extraordinarily lenient, giving the Candela Empire half a month to discuss.

This time and again, when the Candela Empire once again came to the third peace talks with new conditions. It must have been a month after the capture of the city of St. Antonis by the Luxin coalition.

This situation makes many people feel a little strange.

Even if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Ruerson Kingdom are not completely sure about the capture of Wimbledon, then they shouldn't do nothing for a month after the capture of St. Antonis, right?

At least...... Continue to push towards Wimbledon. Putting more pressure on the Candela Empire would make it easier to force the Candela Empire to agree to its own terms of armistice, wouldn't it?

However, the Luxin coalition army really kept moving, as if it was satisfied after capturing the city of St. Antonis, which is really incomprehensible.

More attentive people found that Xu Yi, who played a decisive role in determining the outcome of the peace talks and was the most crucial figure in the whole incident, did not appear in the city of St. Antonis at all during this time.

So...... In this critical period, where did Xu Yi go?

###

On September 11, a hint of autumn had begun to fall in the north of the Sainz continent, while in the south of the Sainz continent, near the southernmost coast of the Tular Empire, which was formerly part of the Candela Empire and is now known as the Tural Dominion, there was still a heat wave and the heat was pressing.

However, because it is close to the sea, there will be a sea breeze blowing from time to time, which is not unpleasant.

Even at this time, you can set up a deck chair and a parasol on the beach to enjoy the sun, the beach and the sea breeze.

Xu Yi and Steele did just that at this time.

"Hey, Xu Yi, what the hell do you think?" Steele opened his eyes and felt that the sunlight shining through the edge of the parasol was a little dazzling, so he turned sideways slightly, looked at Xu Yi lying beside him, frowned lightly, and looked puzzled. "Why give the Candela Empire so much time to rebuild its strength? ”

"Hey, Steele, didn't you say before that you ran to the Demon Cloud Continent to lie down, and you were tired from going back and forth for more than 20,000 kilometers, so I took you to the beach to relax and relax, not to mention work. Xu Yi looked at Steele with some amusement.

"It's not that you don't know my temper, and I can't hold back when I have a problem in my heart. Steele glanced at Xu Yi. "Besides, this question is related to the fate of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the entire Candela Empire, and even the situation of the entire Sainz Continent, how can it be simply called work?"

"Actually, for me, it's just a job. ”

Xu Yi stretched, knowing that once Steele started the topic. Then if you don't satisfy him, don't think about ending it easily. He simply sat up. Half-lying on the recliner, he adjusted his comfortable position before re-opening.

"Steele, I'm sure you're not the only one who has such a question, and many people will wonder why we didn't just go to Wimbledon with the Ruerson Kingdom in one go, but chose to negotiate peace with the Candela Empire at this time. ”

"Of course. It's weird, okay. Based on your previous performance, I don't think Wimbledon can stop your attack at all, so why don't you take Wimbledon down?" Steele asked curiously.

"So...... Haven't you thought about what will happen after you defeat Wimbledon?" Xu Yi asked with a smile.

"After the fight? Of course...... Of course it is......" Steele opened his mouth, but couldn't continue.

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "It seems that you have understood." Although I am completely sure that we can join forces with the Ruerson Kingdom to capture Wimbledon, it will not actually do us any good to capture Wimbledon, but it will bring a heavy burden, do you know what I mean?"

Steele thought for a moment. Shaking his head a little dazedly: "I can think of some, but I can't fully figure it out." ”

"Okay. Let me explain. Although on the surface, Wimbledon is the capital of the Candela Empire, and the capture of Wimbledon can bring a powerful symbolism, and even if we can declare the end of the mighty Candela Empire after the capture of Wimble, there will not be many objections. But really, will the Candela Empire really end?"

"Of course not. Steele shook his head without hesitation. "After all, the Candela Empire is also a huge empire that has been inherited for nearly a thousand years, how can it really perish so easily. Even if Wimbledon is breached, the power within the Candela Empire still exists, and even His Majesty the Emperor of the Candela Empire can abandon the city and flee when the situation is not good. It would be almost impossible to truly eliminate all opposition within the Candela Empire. ”

"Yes, that's the key. If you want to completely destroy the Candela Empire, even an empire of the same level as the Maro Empire can't do it in a short period of time. Our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is just a Chamber of Commerce, and the Kingdom of Luxon is just a small country that has never been very powerful before, so it is even more impossible to do this. And seriously, the complete destruction of the Candela Empire is not in the interests of our Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom of Ruersun. Steele, what do you think is the most important benefit to me?"

Steele smiled and reached out to pinch Xu Yi's face.

"You, in this life, I want to promote your magic industry industry to the entire Sainz Continent, so that everyone's lives will be better because of it, can I still not know?Well, from this point of view, it is not a good thing for you to destroy the Candela Empire, because the Candela Empire has perished, and you can't swallow up the entire Candela Empire with just one chamber of commerce of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but it will split the Candela Empire into countless large and small countries, making it even more difficult for you to promote, am I right?"

Xu Yi laughed, leaned over and kissed Steele the face.

"I am the most beautiful and wise wife I have, yes, that's what I fear. You see, now the southern part of the Candela Empire is in chaos. Although including the Duke of Windsor...... Oh no, it should be called His Majesty the King of Windsor, the former enemies of our Chamber of Commerce have expressed their willingness to cooperate with us wholeheartedly, but I want to completely and better promote the standards of our Chamber of Commerce, but it is more difficult than when I used to cooperate with the Candela Empire. ”

"No, I originally wanted to take this opportunity to vigorously promote the magic projection device of our Crescent Chamber of Commerce here, but the conditions given in each place are different, and negotiating with them will make me tired to death. Steele complained.

"So my advice to you is not to focus on this side for the time being, but to pay more attention to the situation on the other side of the Demon Cloud Continent for the time being. Xu Yi reached out and rubbed Steele's bare shoulders to help her relieve her fatigue. "Speaking of which, you haven't told me how your investigation on the Demon Cloud Continent is going this time?"

As soon as he heard the question, Steele's eyes lit up.

"It's going great!" (to be continued......)
