readx;? Of course, after hearing the words of William quoted by the imperial negotiators, the faces of the Britons on the other side became not very good-looking. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info these guys even regretted it, some were unwilling, and even said that they wanted to be angry.

Some of the more pessimistic ones even turned pale and wanted to cry - because they foresaw the worst possibility, that is, perhaps, after this negotiation, the empire would truly replace the kingdom of Briton as the master of the world......

-- This even made some of the negotiators regret it a little -- although they knew that they were not right, but even this made them think, and they could not help but think, and think, and hope that if they had agreed to open these markets in one breath, would the empire have been a little more lenient and satisfied with this?

Although in reality, this is absolutely impossible.

Fighting for the world is a pretty cruel thing, and no sentimental guy can get to the end.

It's like this.

The matter of the East, Indy, Indochina and the Spice Islands was thus decided, and the two sides put aside the dispute for the time being, and then the next topic was discussed.

That is, the area that is currently controlled by the Empire. But it's a little reluctant to say it's local.

That is, the former Ottoman Empire, the Zoroastrian Empire, and the region where the Uzbek Khanate was located, in fact, the Brittons wanted to add a Tartalya Khanate, but the Empire resolutely refused to allow it, and insisted that there was no Tartalia in the world.

In this case, it is not good for the Bretons to say anything.

These territories, although William and the Empire have been defeated, and are beginning to digest. However, its status has not yet been determined.

The expectation of William and the Russian Gothic Empire was, of course, that all of these territories would be considered the empire itself. But they also know that this is not realistic.

Originally, according to the mentality and ideas of the Briton people, they still wanted to make trouble in these places.

But reality doesn't allow them to do that.

So in the end, the positioning of these territories became one of the first issues to be resolved in the negotiations.

Briton recognized the Empire's jurisdiction over these territories. At the same time, it also acknowledges the several forces that the Empire currently supports in these territories. Recognition of the Duchy of Zoroastria (downgraded) as a vassal state of the Empire. Recognize the Eastern Autonomous Alliance, which was a split from the Ottoman Empire, and the Ottoman Remnant Government, as areas of core interest for the Empire, and recognize the Empire's free power in these areas.

In the event of a change of power in these realms, Briton will support the Empire's arbitrary actions. At the same time, however, the Empire will also promise to protect the assets of the Britons in this series of areas, as well as the right to invest legally.

Thus, after a period of several years, the territories annexed by the Empire finally acquired a legally recognized status in the international arena - although this "internationally" is currently only the Briton family. But in reality, it was enough for William and Victoria.

Now, apart from the affairs of the Visigothic Republic, what else could the Empire and the Kingdom of Briton combined not handle?

No, not at all, there is no such thing at all. Therefore, in this case, getting the response of the Kingdom of Briton is basically equivalent to gaining all the recognition of the international community. This is a fairly normal and natural thing, and there is nothing to be surprised at all.

That's pretty much it, the Middle East, Central Asia is easier to solve, and the next better place to solve is the green continent -- that is, the green continent in the south of the great desert. There is a green continent of primitive barbarism that is calculated by tens of millions, and there is no civilization and civilization, and the combat power is relatively orc.

The reason why the problem of the Green Continent is easy to solve is that the Empire has not yet intervened in the idea of the Green Continent - although before that, the Ottoman Empire had tried to carry out a series of invasions and offensive activities in the Green Continent. Even because of this, the people of Breton, who currently have an advantage in the Green Continent, feel very distressed. But after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the empire did not inherit their opening up in terms of the Green Continent.

It only stabilized the occupation of the northeastern corner of the Green Continent, which is now the desert peninsula, and also in Nubia, south of Nicoleia, and Abinesia.

For the vast green continent, the empire occupies only a tenth, or even a tenth, of the territory, which is not too conspicuous, and when it comes to affluence, it is not as rich and important as the western part of the green continent.

For the Britons, after losing so much territory, hegemony and interests in the green continent have become an inseparable and indispensable part of maintaining hegemony and a rich life. They will never allow anyone, any force, to touch their territory. At least in this regard.

And for now, the strategic link of the empire does not include the green continent.

If before, before the opening of the Suez Canal, then the Cape of Good Hope, the Cape Colony in the southern part of the Green Continent, is definitely a battleground for soldiers.

But after the opening of the Suez Canal, its importance dropped considerably.

Therefore, the current attitude of the Empire towards the Green Continent is to support the Bretons to continue to maintain stability and rule there. However, this support will come at the expense of their development of the entire market of the green continent. At the same time, the Empire demanded that the Bretons make concessions to the Empire in some respects in exchange for the Empire's support for them.

This concession is the New World.

A new continent that is richer and more expansive than a green continent full of savage orcs, and whose natives are basically humans, is the ideal foundation for the "neo-Gothic Empire" that William wants.

In fact, the same is true for the Bretons.

It is even said that there is such a saying and such a strategy among the Bretons. That is to move the homeland, the capital, to the New World, and put the focus of the country there. In this way, it will be possible to form a new kingdom in the New World in hundreds of years, if not longer, that will be much more powerful than the present kingdom of Briton.

Of course, this strategy is currently seen by the mainstream view of the Bretons as wishful thinking.

As I said before, the vast majority of people, the vast majority of people of normal intelligence, believe that the center of the world is the Old World.

Yes, there is a huge market and great prospects in the New World. But even then, you have to give up your inheritance in the Old World or something......

Not everyone in this world has such a strong or even terrifying courage.

It is even said that the Normandy family, who has always held themselves in high esteem, does not have it.

Although Victoria also understood one thing, that is, the New World was her own future. But who in this world can be smart enough to give up their present for the sake of the future? I'm afraid that such a person has not yet been born, right?

What's more, before this, the Britons did not need to move the capital to the New World, they also had enough resources in the Old World, as well as the possibility of success.

In fact, if it weren't for the sudden rise of the Visigothic Republic before this, which disrupted the steps of the Britons, the mainland faction of the Britons would have been able to declare itself victorious.

They have built a powerful continental state, and they already have enough of millions of square kilometers of native territory and tens of millions of people.

In this case, they don't need to go to the countryside of the New World where birds don't poop anymore, and start working hard to open up the road again.

However, this is no longer the case.

The situation is too much of a crisis right now. The Visigothic Republic has shown such strength that many people in Briton are afraid and even afraid.

Although the marine faction of Briton took this opportunity to greatly strengthen its own voice, and claimed very boldly that it would be okay for Briton to take the ocean route next. The Britons can happily continue to maintain their hegemony, the Briton navy is invincible, but it is not the scum of the army, enough to defeat any challenge from the enemy, and ensure the safety of the Briton homeland......

But, of course, these guys as oceanpies can say that. But the Normandy family, as a continental faction, cannot.

The best strategy and the best outcome is, of course, for the Normans to defeat the Visigoths and then successfully regain enough territory to allow Briton to continue to appear as a continental state and maintain the power and status of the world hegemon.

However, this is only the best outcome. If this result cannot be achieved, then it does not mean that the people of the mainland faction will bow down to the people of the maritime faction and admit defeat.

They also have another strategy, which is to move the capital, as I said before.

It is for this reason that there is a great deal of noise about moving the capital of the New World to the New World, which is now loud and fraught with the clamor of Briton and the relocation of the capital to the New World. Even the Normandy family has shown more or less interest in this theory and strategy.

Of course, everyone knew that this was something that had to be done when there was no way out, and this was something that would be done when all roads were impossible, when all means were unworkable - but that did not prevent the Bretons, especially the members of the Continental Parliament, from making the New World their reservation.

They forbade anyone to covet the territory. thinks that these territories should be occupied by themselves, even if they don't develop themselves, even if they can't effectively use the resources there after they occupy them, then they would rather let the grass grow there, and never give others any chance.

- Yet.

The problem is still that question.

That is, the Bretons do not have enough strength.

If they have enough strength, of course, they will be what they say. Not to mention the New World, even the hegemony of the whole world is only one of the items coveted by the Britons.

But, the problem is, they don't have that much strength right now. Well, it's a different story. (To be continued.) )
