"We will never agree to lease the land to you, and ask you to retract this unreasonable demand. ≥>≥ ≤≤< ≤ although our country is weak, it is also dignified, and we don't need foreign soldiers to help us maintain order! The empty palace echoed with the roar of Prince Koster.

Xue Yunchu stood aside, watching the expressions of the two guys change from confident to dumbfounded, and translated the words to them as they were.

Two weeks later, as he had expected, Sant and Hilde were impatient to ask the king for a lease of land. Originally, according to their procedures, it was impossible to be so urgent, but it is estimated that they think that their opponents are just a group of chiefs of primitive tribes, and they will not have a deep concept of the country and the land, and they can sign the agreement as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams. If this is done successfully, it will undoubtedly add a lot of money to their resumes. Diplomatic fraud like this is a common tactic of the U.S. government, and it is no wonder that these two men are desperate to settle the matter.

Prince Koster was so annoyed that he forgot the existence of the king, and when they had asked to see him not long ago, they had spoken wonderful, and he had thought that they were really willing to have an equal and friendly relationship with each other, and to help them build their country, and after a short period of investigation, he understood that it could not be done in isolation. But at today's court meeting, the two actually proposed to lease land to build a so-called military base, which immediately reminded him of the notorious colonial stronghold in history, through which the white Westerners sucked away the original blood of the big 6 like a blood vessel.

Xue Yunchu couldn't understand the reason for Prince Kester's fire, he didn't misinterpret the other party's meaning, but it was precisely by translating their meaning bluntly that the prince understood what the so-called lease was all about.

Just now Hilde said: "Your Majesty, we would like to lease you a piece of land for the purpose of building a garrison base. I think that will help to stabilize the situation in Africa, which is currently becoming chaotic. ”

The meaning of this sentence is very clear, in the short time that Heard conducted, he now has a national defense force close to zero, according to the usual practice, many island countries will provide US military bases in exchange for national defense protection, this time should be no exception, before making this request, he also admired the keen eye of his superiors.

King Urs was silent, he was not angry because of the gaffe of the royal brother, if it was not for the psychological preparation, at this time he could not hold back his anger, he knew English, the meaning of the two was naturally clear, and there was no mistake in the translation, the reason why the royal brother was angry was because their request touched the bottom line of national independence.

The other party's words undoubtedly said that you cannot protect your own people, so leave this task to our army, and I will give you a sum of money every year in the future.

"I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness may have misunderstood me, we have no intention of offending your government, but I think your country should see that your neighbors have been in turmoil in recent years, and if your country had remained closed, it would have been able to stay out, but according to our statistics, after the opening of your railway, nearly 1,000 refugees from neighboring countries have entered. This may not have any impact on your country for the time being, but I think that if it continues in the future, it will inevitably lead to chaos, and I am afraid that your country will be difficult to clean up, and the US government does not want to see another friendly African country plagued by war again. We have come with the highest intentions. Hilde didn't seem to understand why the other party's face suddenly changed, and he spread his hands and put on a very aggrieved look.

Prince Koster was still angry, after listening to Xue Yunchu's translation, he calmed down his anger a little, if it was really as the other party said, he did understand what the other party said, his own country is basically a country without defense, which is determined by geographical conditions, and the power of modern weapons, he also knows some, there is no resistance at all, but in any case, the independent tradition that has been maintained since the founding of the country must not be discarded, otherwise he will not be able to see his ancestors after death.

"Whatever reason you put forward, I will never approve of it, and if your country really wants friendly exchanges, please do not make such a request again, we will not agree." Prince Koster seemed to have forgotten who he was, and it seemed to him that the royal brother must have maintained the same opinion on this matter.

Xue Yunchu translated the words unchanged. After hearing this, Hilde exchanged glances with Sante, understanding that he was a little too anxious, the other party had not seen the real national strength of his side, how could he be willing to be a vassal like those small countries?

Thinking of this, Hilde said, "In that case, then we will not discuss this topic. I have already reported to China, and I think we will take your country's situation into account in next year's aid project to Africa. "If the hard doesn't work, the soft one will come, anyway, these are the two tricks, but they have repeatedly worked.

"Thank you for your kindness, I just had a gaffe. Your Majesty, I beg your pardon for my agitation," said Prince Koster, who had come to his senses, and although the King had asked him to deal with these white men, he understood that what he had just said and done was very inappropriate.

"Okay, okay, I understand Brother Wang's mood very well, don't blame yourself, two distinguished guests, let's go back and rest first. We're going to have to take matters into our own hands. "King Urs didn't care, not to mention that even if he did, he couldn't punish his relatives in front of outsiders.

Hilde and Sant were invited out, and only Xue Yunchu and the bureaucrats of the Urs Kingdom were left in the main hall.

Look at the vassals below who are at a loss, King Urs sighed secretly, too closed, these people don't know the outside world at all, it is impossible to put forward any opinions on these modern foreign affairs, it seems that you can only wait for the results of modern education to change the silent situation in front of you, maybe at that time, you can't see it, King Urs thought of this, and felt a trace of regret. But then he picked himself up, no matter what, he had to hold on until the next generation grew up and brought the country into the modern world, otherwise how could he face the previous king?

Xue Yunchu, who watched the end of a farce, didn't feel funny, he understood that the two of them just made the mistake of underestimating the enemy, with their rich diplomatic means and strong national strength, it was not difficult to get a military base here, if there were no variables on their side, as long as they created some chaos and explosions, the government of this country would give in and welcome their garrison. No, they can still use assassination, which is not surprising, and they call it "decapitation". Modern means are not something that these people who have just left the country can handle.

It seems that the chess pieces that have been arranged should be used to knock down the abnormal movements of these guys, and I don't want to get in the open space that has been enclosed with great difficulty.

"What's the doctor's opinion?" King Urs turned his gaze away from his ministers and to himself, the royal advisor.

"I think the king studying in England should understand some of their country's diplomacy, and it is not complicated to deal with the current situation," Xue Yunchu reminded, only the conclusions reached by each person themselves are the easiest to convince him, and this king should know how to do it.

Sure enough, the king pondered for a while, nodded, and said, "I understand what the doctor means, and from my experience and historical lessons, there is only one country that can maintain this balance. I'll entrust this to the doctor, and I hope you won't shirk it. ”

Facing the old king's eager eyes, Xue Yunchu said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, there are still countries in the world that uphold justice, and now is not the colonial era after all, even if there are many voices against expansion in the United States." ”

The ministers looked at each other, apparently not understanding what the two were saying, and Prince Koster was also puzzled, but he wisely did not ask.

Leaving the palace, the sun was as blazing as ever, and Xue Yunchu immediately got into the car after coming out, and told the driver to drive home.

The king made a wise choice, apparently he knew very well that it would be more advantageous to take refuge on that side, but unfortunately, he was too old, and his mind was very stubborn, and he did not want to waste anything more on him, and it seemed that he was destined not to see the day when his country would be strong, but it might not be a bad thing not to see it, because by that time, it would no longer be his country. Xue Yunchu thought with his eyes closed.
