Chapter 391 Negotiation or blackmail?

Tang Zheng stayed one night in Li Wuyou's palace. The next day, he and Li Wuyou went to meet Bai Magnolia's delegation.

A royal princess, Sophia, came to Magnolia. Now the emperor of Magnolia is Sophia's brother Anthony.

Sophia knew Li Wuyou before the end of the world. Now when she saw Li Wuyou again, she took the initiative to come over and happily hugged Li Wuyou and exchanged greetings.

Tang Zheng looked at the woman from behind. He could see the perfunctory look in her eyes, and he knew it in his mind.

 Before the end of the world, they were both princesses, with equal status. They might have a little friendship, but this friendship was simply not worth mentioning in the face of national conflicts.

Sophia's arrival is nothing more than to ease the atmosphere and make the negotiations less contradictory and sharp.

However, Tang Zheng and Li Wuyou were already prepared for this matter. After Li Wuyou met with Sophia, he took the initiative and said: "Sofia, since you are here, come and go out with me. I will also take care of this negotiation." If you don’t quite understand, just leave it to their men, Brother Zheng, we’re out, you can talk slowly and don’t worry about us.”

With that said, Li Wuyou pulled Sophia away, leaving Sophia and Magnolia's delegation in a daze.

Unexpectedly, as the crown prince of the empire, Li Wuyou did not participate in the negotiations at all, but left the entire matter to Tang Zheng.

 Let them negotiate with Tang Zheng, a war madman?

Several people looked at Tang Zheng, their scalps a little numb.

This man can be said to be the most ruthless person today. Among other things, he killed tens of millions of people by bombing a volcano. There has never been anyone so ruthless in history.

His leaving Bai Magnolia and the captives from various countries was definitely not out of humanity, but just waiting for blackmail.

The people in Magnolia understand Tang Zheng's thoughts very well, but since they are here to redeem the hostages, they are also prepared to be blackmailed.

 The defeated must have the consciousness of the defeated. They understand this truth, but they must pay as little benefit as possible. This is the basis for the existence of negotiations.

Tang Zheng was accompanied by several subordinates. Ning Yuwei from the guard camp, Xu Liu from the special service, and Director Ji Yuntian from the Military Intelligence Bureau were all in this team.

 After all, Tang Zheng cannot rely on Tang Zheng to argue about things that take a lot of talking. Most of the time, his subordinates do the talking.

 The negotiation table was set up, and people from both sides sat down on the left and right sides.

The side of Magnolia is not the same country. People from the Wool Empire, Java Kingdom, Coconut Kingdom and other countries are also coming together. Because they all have a stake in the people captured this time, they have to come.

Magnolia’s Sophia was away, and Davis, the other team leader, took on the responsibility of negotiating.

The bearded white man coughed and took the initiative to speak: "Dear General Tang Zheng, first of all, I apologize for the conflict between our two countries due to misunderstanding."

Tang Zheng didn't say anything. Ji Yuntian from the Military Intelligence Bureau took the initiative and said: "That's wrong, Mr. Davis, there is no misunderstanding between us. If you come to attack us, we are attacking you, so there is no misunderstanding."

Davis' old face turned red when he was choked. He didn't expect the people from the Light Chasing Army to be so disrespectful and take their polite words seriously.

But being able to go to the negotiating table, Davis's face is obviously not comparable to that of ordinary people. Although he was embarrassed for a moment, he quickly smiled and said: "Yes, yes, we participated in the war, but we failed, but the war It will end eventually, and we have come to your country with sincerity, hoping to find a peaceful path."

At this point, he suddenly changed the subject, "But before I talk about this, I would like to ask you something. According to the latest news I have received now, the navy fleet of the Light Chasing Army has begun to enter the waters of Guanmen Island and Transit Island, and These places were the inherent territory of our Magnolia before the end of the world, and troops have been stationed there for a long time. I wonder what your army is going to do in those places?"

This time Tang Zheng spoke: "Don't you know what we are going to do? Didn't Cui Island still belong to our Han Yue territory? Wasn't it also occupied by you for more than half a year? What were you doing at that time? We What to do now.”

Davis frowned slightly: "Tang Zheng is approaching, I'm sorry about Didui Island, but in fact you have taken back Didui Island, and we have paid the price for our actions, and your current behavior is a kind of aggression This behavior is wrong. I hope you can order your troops to withdraw from Guanmen Island and the transit island, and return the Atlantic Ocean to a pure land."

Tang Zheng glanced at Davis: "Why do we want to withdraw?"

 “Because it was once our land.”

Tang Zheng smiled: "The continent you live in was once the land of the Mohicans. So do you want to withdraw from that land now and return it to the Mohicans?"

The veins on the top of Davis's head jumped. This Tang Zheng is so disgusting.

Chen Sesame Rotten Valley, has already taken it out for a long time, and said, do you not want to negotiate well?

He really wanted to throw away and leave, but after all, a large number of prisoners of war were being held in the hands of the Light Chasing Army. These people must be brought back home, because if these troops cannot be brought back smoothly, it will affect their next plan.

So no matter how excessive Tang Zheng's words were, he had to endure them.

Davis smiled patiently and said: "General Tang Zheng is really good at joking. These two things are not equal. Let alone whether the Mohicans will be able to accept the land we give away. In fact, after In the elimination of the last days, the last Mohicans also died, and their nation disappeared, just like the Orochi people now have no ability to return to their country to survive, this matter can no longer be changed."

"The islands in the Atlantic Ocean are different. As far as I know, General Tang Zheng has occupied Wangjing Island, occupied Chongsheng Island, and recovered Mingzhu Island and Baisha Islands. Your Han Yue sea territory has formed a complete In the outer island chain, no one can pass through this area silently and get close to your mainland, so General Tang Zheng should be very satisfied. We will all recognize your sovereignty on these lands." What Davis said , Tang Zheng scoffed directly: "It has been occupied by me, why do I need your recognition? Whether you admit it or not is the truth. If anyone is not convinced, you can come and try to take it back."

"you!"

Davis was fuming with anger. This was the first time he met a negotiating opponent like Tang Zheng. He was completely unreasonable and would not talk nonsense with you. He directly made it clear that he would fight if you don't accept it. He found it extremely difficult.

At this time, the representative of the Wool Empire asked tentatively: "General Tang Zheng, our latest news is that after your fleet occupied the transit island, it seems that it will continue to move eastward. What is your purpose?"

Tang Zheng said calmly: "Xavier Islands."

Tang Zheng's original plan was to capture Guanmen Island, Transit Island and Xavier Islands. However, the Xavier Islands were too far away. Tang Zheng also benefited from the fact that the Light Chaser Army should not advance too quickly. Regarding the Xavier Islands, Tang Zheng actually still had some thoughts in his heart. Have other plans.

That island is too important to Magnolia. If they lose it, they will no longer have a say or a foothold in the Atlantic Ocean.

 Besides, that island, like Orochi's island, is also a volcanic island archipelago, which is very dangerous. It is actually not a good choice for the Light Chaser Army to station there now.

Especially after Magnolia also has a nuclear bomb.

As soon as the news came out, Davis and others looked surprised and felt that the matter was getting difficult.

Once the Xavier Islands are captured by Tang Zheng, they can continue to the east to reach Magnolia, and to the south to reach the Wool Empire. That place is too critical and must not fall into Tang Zheng's hands.

Davis, who had always been relatively stable, was a little panicked: "General Tang Zheng, please give an order immediately to stop your army's advance. This is a critical stage for us to negotiate to redeem the prisoners, and we are not completely empty on the Xavier Islands. Yes, there are still some of our residents and troops there. If you go to Xavier at this time, it is a direct invasion, which will poison the atmosphere of our negotiations too much."

Tang Zheng snorted: "You also know that now we are negotiating to redeem the prisoners, so let's talk about the redemption of the prisoners. Don't talk to me about the progress of the Light Chasing Army. If the negotiations go well, I may consider your offer. proposal."

Seeing Tang Zheng's attitude, Davis finally understood that his negotiation skills of advancing and then retreating were useless.

Now the Light Chasing Army is winning. How many skills he has, it will be in vain if the opponent doesn't buy it, unless Bai Magnolia can defeat the Light Chasing Army.

But he is really not sure about this kind of thing. Bai Magnolia has developed desperately during this period and has indeed made some progress in the military. However, the incident of being completely annihilated by the Light Expulsion Army is still vivid in his mind. They dare not take risks now, and they don't dare to take risks now. Can't afford to gamble.

 Unless they use small nuclear bombs, but Tang Zheng also has this kind of counterattack method, they still dare not gamble.

 After all, in their inherent thinking, their lives are the most precious, and there is no need to fight with a war madman like Tang Zheng.

That guy really dares to drop a nuclear bomb.

Faced with Tang Zheng's strength, they had to give up the discussion on the ownership of the Atlantic islands and shifted the focus of the negotiations to the issue of ransoming the captives.

 Just in this way, their advantage will be lost, and the subsequent negotiations will be very difficult.

Sure enough, the subsequent negotiations immediately reached a deadlock as soon as they started.

Facing countries like Magnolia, Tang Zheng directly threw out a piece of information.

"This is my bottom line. If you agree to my request, you can redeem the prisoners of war. If you don't agree, then you will go back to where you came from. There is no need to continue this negotiation."

Davis and others took a look at the information and were immediately furious.

"No! This is absolutely not possible! This is blackmail! We at Magnolia would rather fight to the end than accept such a request!"

The other countries also nodded one after another, assuming a posture of fighting side by side with Magnolia and never compromising.

 Because the material requirements are too stringent.

 First of all, the first one doesn’t work.

[The Zhuguang Army will reissue currency, and the currency name will be the New Guangyuan. The New Guangyuan will become the world's only universal currency. In order to ensure the credibility of the issuance of the universal currency, all countries in the world will send representatives to establish a global currency alliance. The alliance's headquarters will be set up in Zhuguang City, other countries must take out gold or equivalent jewelry as required and mortgage it in the Zhuguang Bank vault as the basis for issuing currency. 】

There is also a list of gold and jewelry at the back. There are detailed regulations on how much each country can hand over.

This is the first article, followed by the second article, which is to recognize the existing occupied territories of the Light Chasing Army, which includes the territories of the Tiger Empire, Wangjing Island, Chongsheng Island, Guanmen Island, Transit Island, Xavier Islands, and Volcano City , and the country where the jade mines of the Southern Peninsula Alliance are located.

When Davis and others saw this, they thought Tang Zheng was crazy.
