Chapter 117 The only thing that is infatuated is Yijiang water, and he refuses to go east day and night
Negotiations at Subatai Palace continue. An hour later, King Nikolai. Subotai. The messenger of Uliangha came and read out His Majesty's will.
Foreign Minister Gilles and Minister to Bactria Butzer negotiated unfavorably, affecting the diplomatic relations between Bactria and Lucia, so they were immediately removed from their posts, and they continued to negotiate with Minister Zeng.
Randy, the dragon knight, destroys the evil elemental creatures and saves Fort San Soubertai from danger. The Order of the White Eagle was awarded with a reward of one million rubles, which was immediately cashed out.
After reading the king's will, the messenger approached Gilles and BΓΌtzer and muttered quietly.
"Your Majesty has prepared to go to the south of Riga to tour the south, and has transferred the cavalry corps Admiral Budyonny and Admiral Kolchak to accompany the escort, and has now gone two hundred and fifty miles.
If the negotiations here can't be concluded quickly, and that dragon knight has been roaming the sky, His Majesty will really have to go to Riga for a southern tour, and you two won't want to be reinstated. β
With His Majesty's authorization, in order to save his black yarn hat and his net worth, Giles and Butzer reacted quickly, and decided to sign directly according to the original draft agreement signed by Buze and Lord Zeng.
Zeng was not in a hurry. Anyway, with Randy's physical strength, he won't faint if he lingers in the sky for two more days, but he falls asleep on the dragon, who dares to go up to see if it's true?
Master Zeng picked up a cup of coffee, thought for a while, and proposed a series of supplementary terms.
If it is completely according to Lord Zeng's wishes, not only will all the territory occupied by Lao Maozi in the past hundred years be returned, but the territory that the Lucia people have worked hard to colonize for two hundred years will also have to give away a lot.
This is completely impossible, anyway, His Majesty has already run out, even if he destroys Fort San Subertai, these conditions cannot be agreed.
Giles and Butzer were Zeng's confidants, and they knew that at this time, it would be impossible for him, an old diplomatic fritter, not to ask for a sky-high price. I had to be patient and fight with Master Zeng one by one.
The Foreign Secretary's conference room was closed to negotiations, and no one knew the process of negotiations.
It's just that the guards who heard it quietly revealed that Master Zeng had been working on it all the time, and Minister Buce had to wipe his neck several times to commit suicide.
Negotiations continued until late at night, and finally an agreement was reached before midnight, signed by both sides.
With smiles on both sides, he walked out of the conference room and showed the specially invited journalists from various countries the historic treaty that had just been signed.
Giles wears a double-breasted tuxedo, a top hat, and a civilized stick. Zeng was wearing a white suit, a black shirt, and a white bow tie. The two sides shook hands intimately and looked at the reporters who had been waiting for a long time.
Smoke rises in the house, and magnesium lights keep flashing, recording this historical moment.
In the photo, Zeng was smiling happily, while Giles and Butzer were laughing like crying.
The treaty was made public and immediately caused a sensation in various countries.
Not only did Bactria take back Ili and more than 70,000 other square kilometers of land, but the land east of Lake Balkana, which had been ceded to Lucia in the previous treaty, became a "demilitarized zone."
Both sides are not allowed to station troops in the demilitarized zone, and the common people of both sides are free to settle and do business in it. The ownership of the demilitarized zone is decided by a vote of the local population after fifty years.
Abolish Lucia's privileges of free navigation and tax exemption on the Songhua River.
Formerly belonging to the Later Xia, it has now been determined that the lands belonging to Lucia, such as Nebuchu, Outer Northeast, and Vladivostok, are now defined as "disputed areas" and will be discussed later.
This was already the limit of Lucia's concessions, and Lord Zeng also gave in, paying an indemnity of one million rubles as the cost of "safekeeping" Ili and other regions on Lucia's behalf.
What? Nine million? What nine million, you must have misheard. You have to believe the official announcement of Lucia, everything else is rumor.
The next morning, His Majesty Nikolai, who had gone a little further to the southwest to "hunt", returned to the summer palace and issued a press conference.
At the meeting, His Majesty reviewed the great contributions made by His Majesty the ancestor Subotai to the unification of the core continent of Great Xia, recounted the traditional friendship between Great Xia and Lucia for 400 years, and spoke highly of the close comrade-in-arms between the Wuliang Ha clan and the Bo'er Zhijin clan.
At the critical moment when Fort St. Subertai was attacked by evil elemental creatures, the suzerainty kingdom of Great Xia sent great dragon knights to destroy the elemental creatures and save two million people of Fort St. Subertai.
In order to thank the righteous men of Bactria for their selfless help and to maintain the good bilateral relations with Bactria all the time, the two sides signed the "Ili Treaty" of equality and mutual benefit, which helped the two most populous and largest countries to maintain continuous friendship.
This official statement, whether journalists believe it or not, His Majesty Nikolai believed it anyway.
The castle of St. Subertai was in full swing, and His Majesty Nicholas summoned his cronies in the summer palace and held a secret royal council.
"Send someone to keep an eye on that Randy, and kill him quietly when you get the chance.
Until then, we have suspended our expansion activities in the Far East. Recently, the conflict between us and the demons in the Balkans has intensified, and the Three Emperors Alliance cannot continue.
The demons and the new Franks are fighting fiercely, and they look like they want to dominate Europa. We can't let those guys with horns on their heads get their way, Europa is ours!
Whether our kingdom can become the overlord depends on the efforts of the kings, Ula! β
"Ulla!"
Lucia's leaders were cheering up their subordinates, healing the wounds caused by the failure of the diplomatic effort, and turning their attention to the West. Lord Zeng sat on the large teleportation array for the first time and returned to Dadu to report the good news.
His two relatives could not return, so they stayed at Fort San Subertai and began preparations for the establishment of the Bactrian Legation in Lucia.
As early as the middle of last night, after receiving a phone call from Lord Zeng that everything was OK, Randy had already broken the return to the city charm and returned to his comrades.
Now Meimei has slept and is ready to continue setting off with her comrades.
A falcon fell from the sky, Sanmao untied the withered vine ring on the eagle's leg, and muttered curiously, "Did Boss Yan earn a small goal so quickly?" Is this a million for us? β
Binding, with a shake of his hand, he fell out of a delicate White Eagle Medal, Sanmao took it in his hand and looked at it, "What is this?" β
Henry took it and glanced at it, "This is Lucia's highest-ranking medal, Randy Boss is now a knight of the Order of the White Eagle, and Lucia is also a noble." β
"Who is rare to be an orc nobleman? How can this orc country be as slamming the door as Zuo Dashuai? β
"The boss has ruined other people's good deeds, and the orcs can still thank the boss? I guess the Orc Kingdom has sent someone to hunt down Randy's boss, so you have to be careful, boss. β
Henry lives with himself, and Lucia certainly can't let Randy go easily.
"However, now that the entire basin of the Ili River has returned to our Great Xia, with the population base of Great Xia, the referendum in fifty years is just a fig leaf for the orcs to deceive themselves.
The Ili River is the only big river flowing westward in Daxia, and the water and grass along the coast are abundant. β
"With us by his side, the boss himself is a dragon knight, can there be any danger? But let's just go straight to the Caspian Sea? What if I can't defeat those monsters? Do you want to go to a nearby city to advance first? β
Sanmao is now full of experience as a trainee thief, and he very much hopes to be promoted to a junior thief first.
"Forget it, our team is now very strong, I suggest we try to go directly to the Caspian Sea first. What if there weren't so many Warcraft? Maybe Ah Hua was scared away when she roared. β
Osman was not in a hurry about his mage's promotion, anyway, he relied on a saint-level staff, and he was apprehensive about directional teleportation, so he was unwilling to make another move.
Seeing that Sanmao shook out a tooth card again, took it over and looked at it, "Boss, you have been promoted again in Daxia, and it seems to be useless." β
Sanmao's hand shook again, "Wow! β
