553. Chapter 553: Negotiation

Basically, after Franz the Younger was gone, Darius and his ministers were somewhat discouraged. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info it seems that the plan you want is not so easy to achieve.

"Tell me, what should we do?"

Opposite, his generals and ministers exchanged a few words. In the end, I didn't come up with any good opinions. The situation is clear. The other side doesn't seem to want to start any more wars. In fact, at present, there is no need for the other side to start a war. Because its two imaginary enemies, the Ottoman Empire of the Dark Elves and the Uzbek Khanate, are now all working on the Zoroastrian Empire. In this case, the Russian Gothic Empire of the Hereford family, of course, has a lot less pressure on the border.

As a result, some people raised the question of whether it is possible to persuade the other party with the truth that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold? The reason is very simple. If the Zoroastrian Empire were to fall, the other countries would have increased considerably. At that time, they turned their heads and fought against the Russian-Gothic Empire. Isn't the pressure on the Russian-Gothic Empire even greater?

Although this is the case, Darius Shah also said that you can give it a try on this ground. But no one in the heart of the monarch and the minister has a bottom.

Because even that would be a few years later, or even a decade later. It will take some time for these countries to completely conquer and absorb the Zoroastrian Empire. During this certain period of time, the Russian-Gothic Empire would not be attacked in any way.

And even if it's a step back. Even a dozen years later, their next target would not necessarily be the Russian-Gothic Empire.

The Uzbeks have said before that, like all nomads, they seek land that is easier to feed themselves. If these guys were to gain power, they would probably be like the Tartariya Khanate, abandoning the Uzbek steppes like the Cuman-Kipchak steppe. Go south and establish a new state in the Zoroastrian Empire.

In fact, there have been many nomadic people in history who have experienced such a history. Nomadic invasions into the territory of the Zoroastrian Empire eventually led to the establishment of a new dynasty. This is one of the reasons why the nomadic blood of this country is very strong.

If that happens, which is simply certain, then the threat of the Uzbek Khanate, to the Herefords, the Russo-Gothic Empire, is eliminated. The Herefords didn't have to send an army to attack them at all.

Of course. In addition to this, the Uzbek Khanate was not very high on the list of threats from the Zoroastrians. The Zoroastrian Empire, which has a certain amount of scientific and technological strength and relatively strong national strength, does not need to be afraid of the Uzbeks at all.

What they are really worried about is their other two opponents. That is, the Mughal Empire, as well as the Ottoman Empire. These two empires were the hearts and minds of the Zoroastrians.

The Mughal Empire was located in the northwest, central and northern regions of Indy. It's too far away from the Herefords – at least for the traditional nations. So I can't count on them.

What the Zoroastrians really expect is that the empire will be able to do what it was last year. Dispatch an army to fight the dark elves of the Ottoman Empire in a big battle. The Dark Elves are indeed strong. But the strength of the Russian-Gothic Empire was not bad. Whatever the outcome, the Dark Elves will most likely reduce the amount of power they put into their side.

In this way, the Zoroastrian Empire could breathe a sigh of relief.

It's just a good idea. The only question is, the Herefords, the Russian-Gothic Empire, were not from the Zoroastrian Empire, and why, and why should they fight for the Zoroastrian Empire?

When you think about it, it's impossible. To make matters worse, the Zoroastrian Empire could not figure out what interests it could have in order to impress the Russian-Gothic Empire.

Trade is indeed good. The problem is that all countries are trading these days, and this is not new. Even the Zoroastrians didn't think so, and said, "If you don't form an alliance, I won't trade with you." "Able to hold the Russian-Gothic Empire.

But what do they want, what do they need, what do they expect to get, but trade trade. They don't know all these ideas. When they think about it, these people are very discouraged, and they feel very uncomfortable and unhappy. But beyond that, they didn't have much to think about.

"In other words, at present, the Empire has little chance of forming an alliance with the Russian Gothic Empire, is that true?" After listening to this group of people say so much, Darius III was very helpless and summarized what these people said. And these people looked at each other, and then lowered their heads, not daring to say anything more.

It was in this case that Nadir was the same as before, who raised a different opinion.

"Shah, I don't think what we're talking about now is actually of any use. The other said, "Because at the moment, we know too little information. It is too early to draw conclusions about whether the other side will be allied with us, and whether they will be close to us. We should gather all kinds of information related to the Russian-Gothic Empire as soon as possible. In addition to this, we should continue to test the Messenger. Maybe we can do what we like and let them give us more information. ”

Nadir said something that made Darius Shah feel very reasonable. He nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Very well, just do as you say - quick, I will collect all the intelligence materials related to the Russian-Gothic Empire in the shortest possible time!"

"Yes, I'll do that. Nadir bowed slightly, then stepped out.

Look at the general's respectful attitude, as well as the vigorous and resolute way of doing things. Darius Shah nodded in satisfaction. But beside him, there were some generals and ministers who looked at Nadir with some concern—the power of the Afshar tribe that the general controlled, possessed, and who was also born had recently swelled dramatically. Especially after the empire went to war on three sides. This general became the most powerful general and the most trusted of Darius Shah because of his outstanding ability and outstanding exploits, as well as the large number of elite warriors that his tribe possessed.

In this case, the general actually already has the strength to usurp the throne.

Unlike the divine right of kingship of the rulers of the East. At the same time, it is also different from the hereditary system of the West, the system of aristocratic families. The monarchs of the Middle East had neither genealogies nor an extensive aristocracy to rely on. At the same time, there is no Oriental moral system to rely on. In this region, rebellion, civil strife, palace intrigues are simply commonplace. It couldn't be more commonplace. If Darius Shah doesn't pay attention a little more, then ......

Some of the nobles, ministers, and generals who were connected to the Shah's family, or who were loyal to him, appeared worried. At the same time, some people are starting to wonder if they should go long......

Of course, none of this had anything to do with Franz Jr., who lived in the embassy, and his lieutenants. These people are like the most ordinary businessmen and travelers. The most visited places every day are the markets all over Tabriz, as well as weathered places. Either busy doing business or busy exchanging feelings with foreign beauties. In addition to this, it is to accept the invitations of the ministers and nobles who are on a mission, to go to their homes to drink and have fun, and at the same time, to tell them some information that "should not be told" to tell them.

Take, for example, the current strategic tendencies of the Empire. and that the Empire is actually silently preparing for another defeat with the Dark Elves. and the Empire's intention to wipe out all the Uzbek barbarians......

Of course, all this has to be mastered by a scale. This scale is that it does not stimulate the sensitive nerves of the Zoroastrians. The Empire's vigorous ambitions for this region must not be considered. Otherwise, things won't be easy.

Therefore, the empire should show its attitude. That is, there is no interest in Uzbeks. Just prevent these guys from making trouble for themselves. The real expansion was still the Ottoman Empire in the south, hoping to occupy the Dardanelles Strait, control this vital access to the sea, and then have free access to the entire blue sea.

In this way, all kinds of information about the Herefords, the Russian-Gothic Empire, were constantly gathered in front of Darius Shah. Look at this intelligence. Darius Shah was very excited and very happy. All this information seemed to be in his favor. It's all about alignment.

If it weren't for the apparent coldness of those envoys, he even had some doubts that he could have given the order now and began to negotiate an alliance.

"Is that really the case? They are actually very reluctant, and still want to fight the dark elves of the Ottoman. And they just want to occupy the territory of that part of the human world in the Ottoman Empire. Not interested in Mesopotamia, or even for the desert peninsulas, for Nicoleia, and so on?"

Although I have seen it many times. But because all of this information is so good-looking. It was so good that he couldn't even fully believe it, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, that's it. Every time, the ministers he sent to spy on the intelligence in the past answered him excitedly.
