"Kobolds have always been the feuding enemies of the nezumi, they are physically strong, powerful, and well-equipped. More executive, disciplined and enterprising than us. So we've always been at a disadvantage, and we've almost been wiped out before, and it's the gods to be able to hold this land. And now the issuance of the mobilization order has indicated that we have reached the point of life and death again. At this time, if the empire intervenes, it may gain a short-term advantage, but it will provoke endless resentment and revenge. Even if the empire resists the pressure, then only more powerful kobolds will follow, can the empire still be able to withstand it?"

A frowning Li Xi was digesting the words in his ear, even if he wanted to deny it emotionally, reason told him that Otero's suggestion was correct. Without his involvement, the nezumi might still be able to withstand the offensive and regain lost ground. But in the case of an enemy on the back, the chances of victory are slim. And the meaning of the other side is also very easy to understand, there are rat people, he can slowly eat. If there is no rat man, he will have to face a strong enemy.

It's just that Li Xi is still very dissatisfied with this, where are his interests in this big war? Even if there is a real strategic necessity, but will the rat people really remember their good when the time comes? In the end, there will still be a war, this is the inevitable process of the rise, no one can avoid it, why not take advantage of the present to weaken one side first, and it can be regarded as a preemption for the future.

"That's not enough to stop my fight, if that's all I do, I'll have to apologize, even if the kobolds come, we can beat them. "As a superior person, Li Xi cannot afford to lose his judgment, which is irresponsible to the country.

"Your Majesty! Of course, the subordinates of the interests of the empire will not forget, and the subordinates are also part of the empire!"

"Hmm???What the hell do you mean? I always feel that there is something in the words! If there is a fart, let it go! Lao Tzu is not in a very good mood!"

"Yes, your majesty has taught me that the envoy of Mekro has come here, and he should have come to sign the agreement. If you can gain benefits through peaceful means, why bother to fight to the death!"

"I'll wipe it, you dead old man, why were you dumb before? You're sick!" Li Xi was angry again when he heard this, this little old man is really a grinding little goblin! You can blackmail, oh no, I can negotiate and I'll beat a fart, if you can't talk, then use the knife again!

"Well! It's the fault of my subordinates! I was in a hurry, and I only remembered to oppose the war, and forgot more important things!"

"Go, go, go, go down and rest! Lao Pa! Bring that envoy up! This is China's first bilateral meeting with a foreign country, and we must not lose face, and we must take back all those who should be blackmailed. ”

......

Git is the name of the second child, and now he is idle in the border military town, there is no so-called diplomatic brigade, and his father only asked him to bring two guards and sent away. Looking at such a large diplomatic team before leaving, Git wanted to complain about his father, you told your son to die! Everyone knows how many rat people humans have killed, is there such a father?

Fortunately, he had already done his job and found someone to connect with Otero, otherwise you wouldn't even be able to get in, let alone negotiating. So when he arrived safely, he had nothing to do, and he observed everything about the human race.

The city wall has already attracted his side attention, although it is only 4 meters, but it has already exceeded the waste slag project of the rat people, and it is said that the city wall of the hinterland city is even taller and thicker! Obediently! This Nima has not climbed to death! There are also dense arrow towers, which completely surround the city, and he can see that his scalp is numb, and his heart is pounding! I don't know how many lives will be needed to fill it if he is really going to attack it.

In fact, Bian Jun Town is actually still a military town, and the civilian settings and commerce are far less than the two towns behind, and the degree of prosperity is far from comparable, but this situation also makes the Jite who entered the city dazzled and curious. The neat rows of houses, the clean streets, the bustling bazaars and neighborhoods, and the dazzling array of goods all stimulated his senses.

Sure enough, human beings are creatures who know how to enjoy themselves! I have really lived in vain all these years! Shaking his head, he just went on shopping, shopping. Don't look at him just wandering aimlessly, in fact, he has already discovered the problem secretly, that is, food. Although there are some shops selling food, the number is disproportionately small compared to the size of the town, and although the people are in good spirits, they are not very good-looking. It seems that the life of mankind is not easy! So after remembering it, Git gave up the aspect of people's livelihood and turned to the military aspect, but before he could continue, he was invited by Li Xi.

This is a very young human being, unable to see the specific age, the eyes are not eye-catching, and there is no strong oppression. The knife-cut face has a serious expression, not handsome, but it feels too serious. The physique is small but very strong, and he has the demeanor of a military man in his gestures. The clothes are not gorgeous, and they should not be people who are content with pleasure.

This is Git's first image, not good or bad, just relatively novel, after all, I have never seen a human before. In fact, the outside world has always been very curious about this force, and rumors about them have long been spread beyond recognition. In the same way, he will also wonder what kind of character can stand in that abandoned place, and even win again and again to make his own reputation.

And Li Xi only saw two words, young! Whoever called the rat man basically looked the same, and he didn't care about this thing. Is it just that such a young guy is reliable? Don't be hairless and unreliable!

"Your Excellency Li Xi, let me introduce you first, I am from Mecro, the youngest son of the chief, and I have come to negotiate with Mecro with plenipotentiary representatives. "Git was very formal about himself and his mission.

"Welcome, welcome, but you should call me His Majesty the Emperor!

"I'm sorry, please accept my sincere apology, Master Otero must have informed His Majesty about the purpose, what do you think of such a clause?" said Git, handing over the leather scroll in his hand, waiting for Li Xi's reply.

The terms are also very simple, there are only three in total, and the rat people can't make anything too cultural.

First, Mecro formed an alliance with humanity to help and support each other for a period of 10 years.

Second, during the alliance period, humans are not allowed to attack the nezumi, and are allowed to counterattack if they are invaded.

Thirdly, as a token of gratitude for the friendship of mankind, Mecro hereby presents 200 tons of grain.

It's just a little bit of something, and it is estimated that the others still need to be communicated verbally, but Li Xi really doesn't care about the first two, can't he fight back after being beaten? Isn't this nonsense!

There is also an alliance that is too long for ten years, but it is not a big problem, anyway, there is nothing wrong with tearing up the agreement, at most the reputation is not good.

And what really matters is the third one, this is what attracts him, food, food, you don't need to fight, this is called happiness!

"I've seen your sincerity, but it's not enough to impress me. In this way, the period is reduced, it can only be 2 years at most, and another 200 tons of grain will be added. Anyway, sit on the ground and pay back the money on the spot, and Li Xi also said his request.

After listening, Git did not express surprise or annoyance, as if he had accepted this condition. It was only after pondering for a while, Git said a new condition: "The life limit is at least five years, and the grain can also come according to Your Majesty's requirements, but Your Majesty must send troops to fight together to resist the enemy's invasion." ”

"Huh?" Li Xi was very surprised by this request, and asked him to send troops to assist the rat man? This is too unreasonable, no one knows how his prestige came about, even if you Mekro don't care, but the other rat people can put down the mustard? Not to mention whether the royal court agrees or not!

"I'm not kidding, I'm not going to put my army in jeopardy. "He doesn't have the heart to work for others, if it weren't for the sake of food, he wouldn't be too lazy to talk nonsense.

"Presumably, Your Majesty also knows that the relationship between the royal court and our various ministries is not harmonious, your army is fighting as a Mecro alliance, and does not need the consent of others, if anyone provokes a conflict with you, it is an enemy of our Mecro, in the unified Great Patriotic War, no one can afford this risk, and neither can the royal court! ”

"I'm sorry! the risk is still too great, in your coalition army, I am a vulnerable group, and I may be wiped out in your army at any time, this is not a joke, if there is any sincerity, don't mention it again!"

Looking at Li Xi, who still strongly refused, Git had no choice, and the negotiations could only be temporarily terminated, but after getting up and leaving, he made a new request, hoping to visit His Majesty's army, so as to have a deeper understanding and facilitate future talks.

Li Xi also knows this, doesn't he just want to understand his strength and see if it is necessary to stabilize himself. But it's nothing, I've been beaten so many times, and there's no need to hide it, if you want to see it, let's go see it, if you want to save food?

Looking at the retreating Git, Li Xi turned his head to Lao Pa and said, "Arrange it, let that messenger see enough tomorrow, remember to behave better! Don't give Lao Tzu a basket! If you don't get food, see if I don't kill these dogs! Go and do it!"

After returning home, Git immediately sent someone to deliver the news back, hoping that his father could give some advice. Then he invited Otero over, hoping to get some help. I also have to say that Otero really worked hard for the sake of unity, and at the risk of being blamed by Li Xi again, he rushed over with a full body of pain, is this the upright strength of the old man in literature and art?
