Chapter 927: Talking and Fighting
The agreement was not signed by Song Li and Santo himself, but by the old man behind Shangguan Jinghong and Santo. [No pop-up novel network]
Song Li also knew that this old man, who already had the peak cultivation of Yuan Ying, turned out to be the head of the cabinet of the Phoebus Country.
The two sides agreed that when dawn, Song Li would send someone to transport this batch of equipment directly to the governor's palace, so that Phoebes could assemble this batch of equipment to the army as soon as possible.
Fortunately, the Diga Dynasty also wanted to cross the Degas fortress and enter the northern plains of the Phoebus country to fight, and it was necessary to mobilize a part of the army from the country, leaving enough time for the Phoebus country.
Before this, Song Li would not reveal the matter of this batch of equipment, and when the time came, the combat effectiveness of the Phoebus army would suddenly be strong, and it could catch the Diga Dynasty army by surprise, and it was very likely that the situation of the war would be reversed in an unfavorable situation.
In any case, if the Phoebus country is not destroyed, Song Li can seek greater benefits and maximize the power of this batch of equipment, but these are no longer under Song Li's control.
Three points of heaven are determined, Song Li has done everything he can do, as for whether he can develop in the direction he wants in his heart, he can only resign himself to fate.
After the agreement was signed, Song Li no longer stayed too much in the Governor's Palace, and left with Congshan and Shangguan Jinghong, with the strength of Song Li and Congshan, even with Shangguan Jinghong, who had no cultivation, he could do it without knowing it.
The reason for doing this, Song Li also hopes that before this batch of equipment officially enters the big stage of the Nebula Continent, it will not be discovered by other countries, and if this war produces a result that surprises all countries, it will be tantamount to a muffled thunder, and the impact caused by it is self-evident, and it will also show the strength of this batch of equipment.
"Shangguan, do you know why I brought you here today" Song Li asked abruptly on the way back to the camp.
"Isn't it for the sake of signing an agreement" Although Shangguan Jinghong had a guess in her heart, she still didn't dare to believe it, and answered casually with an answer.
"Forget it, since you yourself are not sure, I will tell you clearly, and you will be solely responsible for all the export of such equipment in the future. ”
"Your Highness"
The degree of Guan Jinghong's thoughtfulness had already been expected, but at this time, he was confirmed by Song Li, and he couldn't help but be a little flattered, you must know that this involves a large amount of military supplies, if Shangguan Jinghong has selfish intentions, he can completely replace the equipment of the Shangguan family and the Xuanyuan family's soldiers without realizing it.
Song Li did this to express his complete confidence in Shangguan Jinghong, of course, it can also be understood that Song Li did not put the Shangguan family and the Xuanyuan family in his eyes at all, as for the real thoughts, only Song Li himself knew.
On the second day, the mediation team entered into negotiations on the ownership of the city of Buren, with the participation of Santo, the king of Phoebus, and McCann, the crown prince of the Diga dynasty, who were parties to the matter.
Secretly, however, both countries are preparing for a major battle in the northern plains of Phoebus.
At the negotiating table, the two sides also did not give in to each other, of course, the Phoebus Kingdom has always emphasized that the city of Buren has always been the territory of the Phoebus country, and the Diga dynasty is the aggressor, and before the city of Buren entered the military management of the mediation group, the Diga dynasty has not actually taken it.
The Diga Dynasty felt that before entering the military administration, Buren City had reached the point where it was broken at the snap of its fingers, and it was already something that the Diga Dynasty had in its pocket, and finally the Buren Dynasty should be handed over to the Diga Dynasty.
During the negotiations, Song Li pretended to say that this matter would be decided by voting, but the Oxa Empire and the Nile Kingdom categorically vetoed it, because the three forces of the Rambis Empire and the Holy Lion Empire plus the Prairie Tribal Alliance are actually from the same line, and they have an absolute advantage in voting, so they will not agree to vote to decide the ownership of Buren City.
This also plays into the hands of Song Li and Helen, such a territorial dispute, negotiation is useless, there can be no result without voting, and without results, you can only continue to be under military control.
The negotiations entered the seventh day, and the two sides were still arguing, but although the negotiations were still going on, the focus of the two sides was obviously no longer on this negotiation, because the day before, the Diga dynasty had officially entered the northern plains of the country of Phoebus through the fortress of Doga.
For this reason, the Diga Dynasty transferred another 100,000 troops from its own country, plus the nearly incompleteness left in the Battle of Buren, and entered the northern plains of the Phoebus country with a full 150,000 army, which is also all the troops that the Diga Dynasty can now use.
McCann's goal is to level the Phoebus Kingdom in one fell swoop and control all the territory of the Phoebus Country in his own hands.
Compared with the fanfare of the Diga Dynasty, although the Phoebus Kingdom has not been idle for the past seven days, everything is being prepared in secret.
Not only did he secretly equip the 50,000 sets of military uniforms that Song Li "supported" at a very fast speed, but he also had two days to adapt, and after these 50,000 soldiers were equipped with this batch of armor and weapons, they seemed to have a new look, and their momentum also rose by several levels.
Although Santo was in the city of Buren, he still secretly issued an edict ordering the ministers of the court and China to speed up the conscription, regardless of age or even gender, and only those who wanted to participate in this Great Patriotic War.
I have to say that although the Phoebus country is a small country, the enthusiasm of the people to protect their families and defend the country is extremely high, because the strength of the Diga dynasty has made these ordinary people very united.
Such a large-scale mobilization, of course, can't hide from the eyes of all countries, many countries are ridiculed, these untrained people, it is useless to go to the battlefield, but Song Li feels that the people of Phoebus are so desperate now, it is admirable.
Of course, the people of Phoebus are also very dissatisfied with the mediation team for allowing the Diga Dynasty to pass through the Degas fortress, and their targets are naturally the Oxa Empire and the Nile Kingdom.
The funny thing is that the Holy Lion Empire, which is also a member of the mediation team and occupies a dominant position in the mediation team, has an excellent reputation among the people of Phoebus, basically all they know is that Song Li, the crown prince of the Holy Lion Empire, scolded the representatives of the countries who voted in favor after the mediation team agreed to the Diga Dynasty to borrow the Daojia Fortress.
York, the prince of the Oxa Empire, and Mussac, the son of the Nile Nation's teacher, were also helpless and laughed at such scolding, for them, the ordinary people of other countries did not care what they thought of them at all, but they were slightly unhappy in their hearts.
In the past seven days, Santo once again secretly met with Song Li, and got 20,000 sets of equipment from Song Li at double the price, presumably because the Phoebus Kingdom had made up 20,000 people with good combat effectiveness among the people to serve as an army.
Originally, Song Li was in the nature of gambling in this matter, if the Phoebus Kingdom was destroyed, the Holy Lion Empire would not be able to recover any gold coins, these 50,000 sets of equipment were enough to show the sophistication of the equipment of the Holy Lion Empire, and completely considering the interests of the Holy Lion Empire, it should not be used as a bet again.
But Song Liqian was an otaku after all, and in this life, he was a person inherited by the emperor, not an outright politician, and he couldn't turn a blind eye to the enthusiasm of the people of Phoebus to defend the country now.
In the end, he agreed to Santo's request, and ordered the Jinpeng mercenary group to secretly escort 20,000 pieces of equipment to the Phoebus country, after all, 20,000 pieces of equipment can save many people in the Phoebus country.
"Hmph, what's there to fight about, in a few days, it is still unknown whether the Phoebus country exists, what's the use of awarding them"
McCann sneered, today was the first day that the 150,000 troops of the Diga dynasty crossed the Degas fortress, and he did not come to command it because he wanted to participate in the negotiations within the mediation team.
Moreover, for the Diga Dynasty, the current Phoebus Kingdom has lost its barrier, and the number of troops is not as good as that of the Diga Dynasty, and it may even be crushed all the way to Phoebus City directly, without his personal command.
At the moment, he is very leisurely, and his mind is not on negotiations, just waiting for the good news ahead, and insulting Santo.
He already hated Santo's tough attitude in the city of Buren in the past few days, and he felt in his heart that the king of a small country was not qualified to clamoring with him, the person of the emperor's inheritance.
"Don't rejoice too early, even if my Phoebus Kingdom is destroyed, it will not make your Diga Dynasty feel good. ”
To be honest, Santo still didn't have any confidence at this time, but he couldn't show it on his face, and he had to be tougher.
"What's the use of being tough, you have to have that strength, and a small country should have the consciousness of a small country. ”
Although McCann said this to Santo, his eyes did not look at Santo, obviously meaning not to put Santo in his eyes.
"Haha, that's right, so to speak, shouldn't I, Phoebus, also take the initiative to surrender like your country did more than forty years ago, and then cede the land and pay compensation. ”
After all, Santo has been a king for decades, and in words, McCann can't please him at all.
"What are you talking about, you are looking for death"
The war between the Diga Dynasty and the Holy Lion Empire more than 40 years ago, the defeat of the Diga Dynasty in the end, and the reluctance to cede the land and pay reparations, has always been a pain in the hearts of all the Diga Dynasty.
As the crown prince of the Diga Dynasty and the heir of the emperor, McCann felt that this was a huge shame, and was publicly pointed out by Santo at this time, and in front of the Holy Lion Empire, he couldn't help but be furious.
Subconsciously, McCann turned his head to look at Song Li, and saw that Song Li was holding his arms, his expression was quite proud, and he also had a slight smile on his mouth, and he felt that Song Li was laughing at him, laughing at the Diga Dynasty, and the anger in his heart was even greater.
Although the other countries did not laugh, he still felt that everyone was laughing at the defeat of the Diga dynasty forty years ago and groveling for peace.
Self-esteem is a good thing, but once it is excessive, it becomes inferiority, and this is the case with McCann at this time
